Beacon starts from the departure of a strong man

Chapter 409
Regarding Liu Fei's words, Li Delin waved his hand to tell him not to worry too much: "Old Liu, don't worry too much. I have arrangements for this retreat. The scene of the army's rout will definitely not happen in Xuzhou."

"I, Li Delin, since I dare to say this, I have a perfect plan."

Afterwards, Li Delin made gestures on the map again. Right now, the Japanese Central China Front Army and North China Front Army are encircling Xuzhou on three sides. However, in the direction of northern Jiangsu, the two Japanese troops did not pay much attention, leaving a big gap here!

This may be because the little devil was eager to capture Xuzhou and ignored the direction of northern Jiangsu. Now northern Jiangsu has become the exit for the safe transfer of the Chinese army in the Xuzhou area.

At the meeting, everyone discussed their respective retreat routes. The meeting lasted for two hours, after there was no objection to the retreat route.

Li Delin looked at the crowd fiercely, "Everyone, let me put my ugly words in front of me. Now the retreat route has been arranged. The Xuzhou area will withdraw troops. All troops must cooperate well, and the two sides will alternately cover the retreat."

"In this way, we can effectively break through the Japanese defense line. If during the retreat, I heard that some troops only retreated by themselves and did not follow the order to cover the withdrawal of friendly troops."

"When we get to a safe place, I, Mr. Li, will settle accounts with him and shoot him immediately!"

The Fifth War Zone!Li Delin asked for a lot of power from Lao Chang, so he agreed to be the commander of the fifth theater.

Everyone now agrees with Li Delin's words. After all, after the establishment of the Fifth War Zone, Chang Kaishen promised Li Delin not to interfere with the command of the Fifth War Zone.

"Yes!!" Everyone at the scene shouted in unison!

Just when Li Delin announced that the meeting was about to adjourn, Yu Hua stood up and said, "Mr. Li, I have a message!"

The eyes of the big guys are focused on Yu Hua. The victory in this Taierzhuang battle is inseparable from the hard work of the 22nd Army of the Sichuan Army in Teng County. At the same time, the troops of Zhang Zizhong and Pang Bingxun have contributed a lot!
"Tell me!" Li Delin looked at Yu Hua: "Staff Yu, is there something wrong with my retreat plan?"

"Mr. Li! You're joking!" Yu Hua waved his hand: "Mr. Li arranged the retreat route very well."

"Judging from the intelligence analysis just now, the Japanese Central China Front Army is almost out in force. The Japanese army's strength in the Songhu area must be weak."

"As the saying goes, the best defense is offense. The Japanese army is currently empty. Why don't we counterattack the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions!"

Yu Hua put forward this suggestion, and many generals are also thinking about its feasibility.

Bai Zhuge was the first to speak: "This proposal is indeed good. The Japanese troops in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas are empty. Our counterattack can force the Central China Front Army going north to return to defense, and reduce the pressure on our army to break through the Japanese blockade."

Hearing Bai Zhuge's speech, Liu Fei also nodded secretly: "Counterattack requires elite troops. In the third theater, the troops under Gu Zhutong's command are all recruits who have just been trained."

"If I count on this group of soldiers to counterattack, I'm afraid it will be self-defeating, and I won't be able to steal the chicken!"

"Yeah yeah……"

Many generals who participated in the meeting also nodded. The center of gravity of this war is in Xuzhou, and the Chinese side has deployed almost all the troops capable of fighting in the fifth theater.

The troops in the third war zone were almost all new recruits, and they had just finished their training. Without the assistance of a large number of veterans, they might all have fled under the bombardment of the Japanese artillery.

Seeing that everyone was worried about this situation, Yu Hua waved his hand: "Everyone, don't worry about the strength of the troops. The third war zone has the 28th Army of the Sichuan Army, which has three armies and six divisions, with a total strength of nearly 9. people."

"Among the 9 people, half of them are soldiers of our Sichuan Army who have been training hard in the province, and almost all of them have seen blood."

"This time the counterattack in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions will be carried out by the 28th Group Army of the Sichuan Army. There should be no major problems."

The 28th Group Army, this team had just left for the third war zone, especially the old boy Guo Rudong, who yelled at Yu Hua all day long.

After arriving in the third war zone, Gu Zhutong, an old guy, didn't want to fight the Japanese army at all, which made the 28th Army stay in the third war zone, screaming and wanting to fight the Japanese army.

Li Delin looked at Yu Hua: "Staff Yu, how sure are you?"

After all, Li Delin's heart trembled when he counterattacked the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions this time.

"Seventy percent!" Yu Hua said lightly.

Hearing that he was [-]% sure, Li Delin clapped his hands, "Okay! If this is the case, you Sichuan Army should coordinate and strive to fight this counterattack well."

"I'll talk to Gu Zhutong and ask him to cooperate with the third theater."

After all the arrangements were made, Yu Hua and Sun Zhen returned to Lincheng. They contacted Deng Xihou, Pan Wenhua, and Liu Wenhui from Sichuan Province, and briefly explained their battle ideas.

For Deng Xihou, Pan Wenhua, and Liu Wenhui, they supported this battle. The 28th Army has been drawn to the third theater, and now it is time to come out for activities.

Subsequently, Gu Zhutong in the third war zone also began to formulate a battle plan to contain the Japanese troops in the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, and the 28th Army of the Sichuan Army was the main attack of the night attack.

In order to win the night attack, Yu Hua specially contacted Director Dai of the military command, and asked him to connect with Du Yuesheng, an underground organization in Shanghai.

Du Yuesheng is now hiding in the Europa Concession. As Du Yuesheng who has dominated Shanghai for many years, he must be very familiar with the transportation, docks, warehouses and other places in Shanghai.

In Hankou, after Director Dai received the secret telegram from the Sichuan Army, he actually wanted to refuse in his heart, but his little braid was manipulated by the Sichuan Army. He had no choice but to help the Sichuan Army.

Director Dai played the role of military commander, and quickly got in touch with Du Yuesheng who was hiding in the Europa Concession. Old Du was also very straightforward, and gave the time and place for the Sichuan Army to send people to discuss in detail.

After Guo Rudong received the telegram, he dispatched several confidants to Shanghai in secret.

Shanghai City!
Zhang Yunan, the commander of the 28th Army's reconnaissance company, led several of his subordinates to a hospital run by foreigners, and found the corresponding ward according to the location given by Du Yuesheng.

The moment Zhang Yunan saw Du Yuesheng, he first greeted Du Yuesheng with Jianghu etiquette.

Old Du chuckled, "Sit down and chat!"

After Zhang Yunan sat down, he also went straight to the point and asked Du Yuesheng: "Boss Du, as the king of the underground world in Shanghai, you are very familiar with the pier and traffic arteries."

"Tomorrow night, our Sichuan army plans to attack Shanghai at night. I also ask Boss Du to help out. Boss Du will keep this matter strictly confidential."

When Du Yuesheng heard that the Sichuan army was going to attack Shanghai at night, he was shocked. As soon as the Sichuan army came up, he would give himself strong medicine! !

As a patriotic underground king, Du Yuesheng is still a staunch anti-Japanese faction, he nodded: "Company Commander Zhang, this matter is simple."

"Although I am hiding in the concession, I can still speak a few words in the underground world!"

Afterwards, Zhang Yunan negotiated with Du Yuesheng and asked Old Du to find more boats and boatmen. Hearing that the Sichuan Army needed boats, Du Yuesheng frowned slightly: "How many do you need?"

"The more the better, Boss Du, the boatman recruits you to find someone who is not afraid of death. Once you find one, our Sichuan Army will pay you a settling allowance, one thousand oceans per person!"

Lao Du nodded, expressing that he knew what was going on. The Sichuan army now wanted ships and boatmen. It seems that there will be a lot of commotion in Shanghai tomorrow night.

"Company Commander Zhang, during the Battle of Songhu, there were still many naval members in the defense of Jiangyin, because they had no time to retreat, and now they are hiding in the concession. I don't know if these people are willing to be taken by the Sichuan Army?"

When Zhang Yunan heard it, he thought for a while, and said simply: "Yes! I want it from the Sichuan Army, and this navy is a treasure. How can I not want it!"

Afterwards, the two discussed some issues. After the matter was over, Zhang Yunan contacted Guo Rudong, saying that the preparations were almost ready, and they also wanted a group of naval crew stranded in Shanghai.

After Guo Rudong found out, he was also very happy. This navy is a treasure, and now the Sichuan army picked it up in Shanghai. He called Zhang Yunan back. No matter what method he used, Guo Rudong asked the boy to abduct the navy into the Sichuan army.

Afterwards, Guo Rudong reported the 28th Army's combat plan to the Second Route Army Command, and Pan Wenhua and Deng Xihou sent another telegram to Yu Hua to see if Yu Hua had anything to add.

Yu Hua revised the battle plan, allowing the 28th Army to choose Suzhou, Qingpu, Shanghai and other places as the main attack direction. In these places, the little devils robbed a lot of Chinese property, and now it is piled up here.

For Hua, the Sichuan Army's 28th Group Army had to do it with a big vote if it wanted to fight back, so as to reap more benefits.

After the Chuanjun and Du Yuesheng finished discussing the matter, Zhang Yunan took his brother and lurked in the concession. Once he found that something was wrong, he would immediately generate electricity.

But, fortunately, Du Yuesheng kept things secret, so the Japanese army did not find out about this matter. At night, the scorching sun set and night began to fall. Shanghai, as an international metropolis in the Far East, was still very noisy at night.

Many little devils also roam the streets. Now that Shanghai is occupied by the Japanese, the little devils walk on the streets, as if they are superior, and beat and scold Chinese people at will when they see them.

There were even some women who were molested by the little devils; the troops led by Zhang Yunan, after seeing this scene, everyone shot together and killed the group of little devils.

Since most of the Central China Army's troops were transferred to the north to attack Xuzhou, the Japanese patrolling forces in Shanghai were not enough, and the puppet troops who surrendered were directly responsible. Time, birth is a killer move.

Basically, it is a one-hit kill. After the devil is killed, it is responsible for cleaning the blood. Everyone divides the work and cooperates. As for the corpse of the devil, some are sunk in the river, some are dragged to the alley, and thrown directly into the sewer.

Zhang Yunan led the troops to the Shanghai Railway Station, where there was a squadron of Japanese troops defending and a regiment of puppet troops. Zhang Yunan directly contacted the artillery unit of the 28th Army.

After getting the exact coordinates, the artillery regiment, which had been prepared long ago, fired a volley of five rounds at the Japanese train station. Let's see the effect first! !

The artillery owned by the 28th Army is the Schneider M1919 mountain cannon, which can hit 9 kilometers. There is also an imitation 105mm howitzer, which bombed the Japanese army.

At the same time, the Bofors heavy artillery in the third theater also began to bombard the Japanese ships moored on the Huangpu River.

The 150mm artillery can also cause a lot of damage to the ship when it hits the ship; the sound of the cannon roared, and the railway station, dock, and important strongholds in Shanghai City have now been hit by artillery fire. Many little devils They were also dumbfounded.

The weak army of the Republic of China actually took the initiative to attack the imperial army? ! !

Hata Junliu was in bed and was woken up by his adjutant. When he learned that the Republic of China army was attacking Shanghai, his eyes widened?
"Bagaya Road!!"

"Order Fujita Shin to block the enemy army, and at the same time, mobilize troops that can participate in the battle and fight back for me."

Under the order of Junliu Hata, the Japanese army assembled quickly. As for the puppet army, they were also recruited by the devils. Now that they lack troops, the puppet army can help the Japanese army consume the enemy's firepower.

The information provided by Du Yuesheng was very powerful. The Sichuan army's first stage artillery attack had achieved a complete success, and the infantry advanced very smoothly. Soon, the troops of the two divisions had arrived in Shanghai.

After entering Shanghai, the two divisions began to capture important places, such as Japanese office buildings, banks, and stations.

The firepower of the 28th Group Army was fierce, and the puppet army collapsed quite badly under the firepower of the Sichuan army. Even though the Japanese military supervisory team held guns against it, the puppet army was still sneaking and cheating, preparing to flee the battlefield.

Anyway, after leaving the battlefield, I took off my clothes and changed into ordinary people's clothes. Who would know that I was a puppet soldier before!
Due to the collapse of the puppet army's combat effectiveness, Hata Junliu learned that all the troops could no longer stop the Sichuan army's attack, and asked him for tactical guidance. Hata Junliu could only order that the whole army retreat to the Japanese Concession.

In the Japanese Concession, there was a regiment of the Sichuan Army. Taking advantage of the gap in the Japanese defense line, the whole regiment rushed into the concession.

Although the devils in the Japanese Concession did not wear military uniforms, these people were all beasts. During the War of Resistance in Songhu, they provided supplies to the Japanese army. resource.

This group of people are all people who work for tigers, and death is not a pity!

When the Sichuan army attacked Shanghai, the formation of the 28th Army was a three-three system. Everyone held a civilian 26-style submachine gun. When they saw the Japanese and puppet troops, they rushed. Many little devils fell into a pool of blood before they had time to react.

Many soldiers of the 28rd Division are recruits who have just been recruited. This group of recruits has never seen such a big battle. Compared with veterans, their battlefield reaction ability is much slower. Therefore, when the [-]th Army is attacking , is almost quite smooth.

When encountering a difficult stronghold, the Sichuan army will call for artillery support. Schneider artillery, 105-type mountain artillery, and [-]mm howitzers continue to bombard the stubborn Japanese army.

This is a long-range attack artillery, and a short-range attack artillery. It has a [-]-type infantry gun and a mortar, and it also greets the stubborn devils.

This battle was so shocking that even Shunliu Hata was frightened. The army of the Republic of China is so fierce now! !
