The Yangtze River is naturally dangerous, and Madang is a fortress.

Madang is one of the most important fortresses on the Yangtze River in the Yanhuang Continent. It is located in Pengze County, Jiangxi Province, facing the Xiaogu Mountain in the middle of the river, forming a corner.The beach in the middle of the river divides the Yangtze River into two. The left waterway is narrow and blocked, and the right waterway flows through the foot of Madang Mountain, which is the main waterway.This is the narrowest part of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, with a width of less than 500 meters. The current is turbulent and the situation is dangerous. The Red Army, one of the most suspicious locations for forced immigration.

The little devil was unable to attack the Madang Fortress for several days, losing troops and generals.If it hadn't been for the defense from Madang to Hukou at that time, the commander of the Mahu District Fortress Command, Li Yunheng, the commander of the Bald Party's 16th Army, was so happy to please his superiors, why did the so-called "Anti-Japanese Military and Political University" last for two weeks? The method of military orders took time out of the regimental and company-level army commanders in the Madang Fortress, causing the defenders to be leaderless, and the traitors tipped off the news, which led to the successful sneak attack of the Japanese pirates. The outbreak time and final result of the Wuhan Battle are two things to say.

At this time, the entire Madang Fortress was "impregnable" built by the devils: the first-level fort set up the highest peak of Madang Mountain.The area of ​​the fort is more than 300 square meters.There is an arched air-raid shelter made of bricks and stones, 3 meters high, 4 meters wide, and 50 meters deep. The roof of the cave is five layers with iron plates in the middle, and the sealing soil is 2 meters thick.The entrance of the cave is connected from north to south, and there is a 0 square meter fort at the entrance of the north cave; the second-level fort is located on the mountainside between the first and third-level forts.It is a series of circular earth platforms with a height of 3 meters and a diameter of 5 meters made of poured concrete; the third-level fort is located in Madang Jitou, and the cliffs under Jitou echo the first-level fort on the top of the mountain.The fort covers an area of ​​60 square meters, and the arched air-raid bunker made of concrete and steel bars is 3.5 meters high, 6 meters wide and 45 meters deep.

The Japanese pirate army deployed three 3mm heavy artillery here, as well as several 150mm or more artillery pieces, to deter surrounding suspicious landing sites.

At 1944:1 in the morning on January 1, 5, most of the Japanese pirate defenders in the Madang Fortress were still asleep except for those who were on duty at night.Because the Japanese pirates cooking team prepared a sumptuous "New Year's Eve dinner" last night, and the fortress officers and soldiers were also very generous and humane to allow the lower-level officers and soldiers to drink some sake properly, so at this time the barracks were still buzzing and snoring.

Directly above the fortress, Wang Fan pursed his lips and smiled after seeing these scenes through the 4D map function of the plane ring, and then directly released the aerial bomb in the ring to rain "dumplings".In order to achieve the maximum and optimal bombing effect in the shortest possible time, so as to save time and rush to the next Japanese pirate military Jiangfang Fortress, Wang Fan also used the function of the ring to be placed in the air, and directly put a time bomb in the ammunition depot of the Madang Fortress. Just a few minutes later, the entire Madang Fortress was blasted from the inside to the outside: the dark red bomb flames overflowed, the screams stopped suddenly, and the masonry fragments and artillery parts collapsed everywhere. , and the air-raid bunkers that have collapsed and sunken one after another, everything marks the entire Madang Fortress, it's over!

Almost at the same time, the artillery positions established earlier by the Yanhuang Red Party in the north of the Yangtze River also played a "victorious song" to welcome the New Year.

Due to the existence of the "Sparrow" military reconnaissance satellite intelligence system, the dozens of large and small support artillery positions set up by the Japanese pirate army with painstaking calculations were all clearly seen by the Red Party.Except for some fortress positions where the tortoise shells are too thick and the shelling effect is not satisfactory, Wang Fan needs to help to level them out. Most of the Japanese pirates' open-air artillery positions are all within the range of the Yanhuang Red Party's 155mm cannon. What's more, in order to reduce casualties, Wang Fan also A large number of 3mm heavy artillery used by the pla army town house in later generations was brought in.

Meilong, Anhui Province, not far from Shanghai and Nanjing, is one of the key river defense positions set up by Japanese pirates.

At this time, not far from the opposite bank, more than 300 155mm heavy guns are slowly raising their muzzles, and more than 100 40-tube rocket launchers are lined up in sequence.The Red Party fighters with quick hands and feet carefully removed the barrel protection sleeve, shook the metal wheel, corrected the angle of the firing moment, and then loaded the shells, waiting for orders.

"Fire!" With an order and the small red flags in the hands of the commanders at the grassroots level fell one by one. More than 100 40-barrel rocket launchers and more than 300 155mm heavy artillery launched successively.

"Swish, swish!" The unique sound of the rocket launcher instantly spread throughout the audience.When it was launched, the bright flames at the tail were like the most beautiful fireworks in the world, instantly illuminating half of the sky north of the Yangtze River red.

"What a beautiful firework!" On the slope in the distance, the one-armed general He Bingyan admired the beauty of steel in modern weapons while looking across the Yangtze River with a telescope in one hand.

He Bingyan, nicknamed "He Xiaolong", joined the army for the first time at the age of 16. He dared to rush into the enemy's line alone with a kitchen knife in his hand, slashed left and right, and killed several people in a row.Later, when he participated in the Long March, his right arm had to be amputated (without anesthesia) due to six consecutive injuries.After arriving in northern Shaanxi, he also made outstanding military exploits. Because he died at the age of 47, his reputation in later generations is not obvious, but he was a general after the founding of the People's Republic of China.Since He Bingyan was at the right age in 1943, had a good outlook on the overall situation, and was flexible in tactics, he was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the artillery bombardment of the Yangtze River Campaign this time.Meilong in Anhui Province is already adjacent to Nanjing and Shanghai, which is the breakthrough point for the liberation of major strategic cities south of the Yangtze River, so He Bingyan came here specially to watch the shelling effect.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

As orange flames and smoke appeared from the muzzles of one gun after another, the concerto composed of more than 300 heavy guns began.The sound of the cannons rumbled, the ground trembled, and the deafening sound drowned out all sounds in an instant. The artillerymen could only learn the latest orders from their superiors through the bannermen not far away.

"Old He, it's fun!" Tao Yong, who came near the position with the one-armed general He Bingyan, shouted loudly.

"Hey, if we had these guys back then, let alone the Long March, the Central Soviet Area wouldn't be lost. And I'm sure that we can fight directly from the Central Soviet Area to Nanjing and Shanghai, as well as someone Jiang's hometown." He Bingyan raised his chin. , answered in a bullish manner.

"Hehe, you are so beautiful! Lao Jiang couldn't afford to buy or build these guys at that time, let alone us. By the way, how long is the 'fire preparation' plan?"

"One hour. Since we know the battle defense distribution of the little devils very well, and they haven't built too many reinforced concrete fortifications, one hour should be enough."

"En! 20 years in Hedong, 20 years in Hexi, the Central Soviet Area (a part of Fujian, Jiangxi and Guangdong), we were kicked out from there, and now we are back!" Tao Yong, one of He Long's "Three Tiger Generals" , Looking at the black smoke rising from time to time in the far and near places on the other side of the Yangtze River, he muttered to himself.

Not long after, dozens of B-24 double vertical tail bombers, escorted by nearly a hundred P-47 "Thunder" fighter jets, flew to the high altitude of Shanghai.However, this batch of fighters is different from the blue five-star pattern with horizontal bars of the Stars and Stripes Air Force. Instead, a large five-pointed star with red background and yellow border is painted on the underside of each wing and on the side of the fuselage, which is clearly visible in the sky.

"嗡~~~" The stern air defense siren sounded in the streets and alleys of Shanghai, and pedestrians and vehicles on the road immediately scattered and fled, as if the end of the world was coming.

"Attention everyone, our goal this time is to bomb Japanese pirate transport ships and warships in Shanghai port. Don't throw bombs into the urban area and accidentally bomb the people. Do you understand?" Zhang Xisan, the leader of the bomber detachment, instructed via radio.

"A squadron received it, understand!"

"The Second Squadron Received!"

"Third Squadron understands!"

In the Deyu Bank Building in Shanghai, the shopkeeper Liu Ning quickly climbed up to the roof, and in a hidden corner next to the chimney, he set up a pergola and looked at the high sky.I saw one plane after another arriving in downtown Shanghai.

"Hey hey hey, it's here, it's finally here, hahaha~~" Liu Ning said to himself with a slightly crazy expression on his face.

This is not that he is really crazy or has a hidden mental illness, but the result of long-term mental depression in the living environment.Since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War in 1937, Liu Ningyi has been incarnated as the shopkeeper Lu of the Silver House, lurking in Shanghai for a long time, collecting intelligence information and preparing for the establishment of the Jiangsu Branch of the Yanhuang Red Party.For 6 years, during the day, he was the shopkeeper Lu who was busy with business, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. When the night was quiet, he repeatedly reminded himself not to get lost in the forest of wine and meat in big Shanghai.Due to the long-term switching of two roles, coupled with continuous self-subconscious hypnosis to prevent exposure (for example, if you call the shopkeeper Lu, you have to respond immediately, and when you call yourself by your real name, you have to be unconscious), so after many years, Liu Ning Yi's spirit has been under high pressure for a long time, and it is inevitable that he will be a little depressed, and even have a hint of schizophrenia.This time, I finally saw the army of the political party to which I belonged, and the depression for many years was swept away in an instant, and I even felt a little bit like a manglang.

The Yangtze River is more than a thousand miles away.

One small missile boat after another of the Yanhuang Red Party slowly entered the main road of the Yangtze River from a hidden tributary river. Each missile boat was equipped with a 40mm double-mounted automatic naval gun and two 12.7mm heavy machine guns (strip steel Guard plate), coupled with the 4 "upstream" anti-ship missiles, is enough to allow hundreds of gunboats and dozens of frigates entrenched in the Yangtze River by the Japanese pirates to meet their Amaterasu.

"Lijian No. 2 and No. 3, please note that you are still 33 kilometers away from the target, and you can find, aim, and launch missiles after turning 2 river bends." The communicator on the missile boat came the latest message from the high-level navy. enemy intelligence.

"Received, the Sword 2 has entered the first level of alert, the missile insurance and the main gun insurance have been activated, and it is ready to fight at any time." The captain Liu Shichang replied in a calm voice.

"Sword No. 3 received, has entered the attack state!"

Since the upper layer has "precise" information on the position of the enemy ship, each missile boat of the Yanhuang Red Party is not searching aimlessly, but like a hunting dog, quietly groping towards the unsuspecting prey.

10 minute later.

"Target found, 2 Japanese pirate frigates, 4 gunboats, start radar irradiation, priority setting, frigate is the first priority. Radar lock is complete, missile launch countdown, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, launch!" The captain Liu Shichang ordered in an orderly manner according to the essentials of the earlier training.

"Launch!" A few seconds later, the White Sword No. 3 missile boat emitted similar white smoke, and the two boats, with a total of 8 missiles, flew towards their respective selected targets.Only ten seconds later, the Japanese pirate frigate team was shot into the flames and quickly sank to the bottom of the river.

"Start the engine, the left and right heavy machine guns are in place, the main gun is ready to fire, and search for the devil survivors. Remember, I don't want any prisoners today!"
