Anti-Japanese heroic righteousness

"I'm not joking, I'm telling the truth." Zhao Liangyu looked serious.

"Okay, tell me, I'd like to see what you can come up with?" Liu Dakun waved his fingers, a little annoyed.

Zhao Liangyu pondered a little, and said: "The widest part of the Cagayan River is only more than a hundred meters. There hasn't been any heavy rain in the past few days, and the water flow is not urgent. So I think that as long as we keep throwing logs into the river, the entire river will be fine." It will soon be crowded with big trees, random logs weighing several tens of tons, which cannot be blasted by artillery or shells, and are stronger than any bridge. Wouldn't the soldiers be able to walk across the water? "

"Ah..." Liu Dakun was dumbfounded, he couldn't digest the brain hole, and he wondered for a long time: "Will a round log weighing several tons or dozens of tons be freshly felled wet log? ?”

"Hehehe." Zhuang Yan laughed loudly: "It's terrible to be uneducated. The weight of a tree is not directly related to whether it can float or not, but whether its density is lower than that of water. Therefore, as long as it is not pineapple or agarwood These trees, which are denser than water, can basically float."

"hey-hey."

Liu Dakun scratched his head and smirked: "So this plan will work?"

"It's definitely possible." Zhuang Yan answered first: "If each tree is hollowed out, it can increase buoyancy, and more parts will be exposed to the water. Not only can it reduce the number of trees, but it can also allow soldiers to pass The river is smoother and faster."

"Adjutant Zhuang is really smart, he is more thoughtful than me." Zhao Liangyu praised with a thumbs up.

Liu Dakun said: "So, we don't need to choose a landing site at all, just choose a place with a relatively open area, which is convenient for our troop mobilization and has guaranteed logistics?"

"Yes, we can just choose the crossing in the jungle and cross the river where the original Cagayan River bridge was built, so that we can pull all our heavy artillery divisions and tank divisions up, and we don't have to think about suppressing firepower if we swing on both sides. It's gone." Zhao Liangyu said.

……

In the afternoon, there was a ceasefire across the Cagayan River.

In the middle of the jungle, on both sides of the road, the soldiers of the national army began to enter the state of logging, cutting with knives and axes, hacksaws, and trees that could not be hugged by one person were cut down, and the branches were dug holes. Everyone was very busy. .

Excavators, bulldozers, cranes and other machines were all driven to the riverside, and the soil work was carried out with great fanfare.

At [-] o'clock in the afternoon, on the east bank of the Cagayan River, on a hill about two or three miles away from the river, a group of senior island army generals were observing the situation on the opposite bank with binoculars.

The highest rank is a lieutenant general, with a short stature, a fat round face, a gray beard, and a pair of mung bean eyes that are extremely dark.This person is Lieutenant General Ushishima Sadao, commander of the [-]th Division of the Island Army.

Ushishima Sadao, Kumamoto, was born in 1876. He graduated from the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer Academy and Army University. He participated in the Russo-Japanese War. Afterwards, he went all the way to the sky. He retired in 1935 and became a lieutenant general when he retired.

After the outbreak of the war of aggression against China, he returned to active duty at the age of 18 and served as the commander of the [-]th Division. He led his troops to land from Hangzhou Bay and attacked the Chinese army behind him. He fought from Guangde and Yicheng to Wuhu and cut off the upper reaches of Nanjing. The reinforcements from the army once inflicted heavy losses on the Chinese army.

After the battle, he stepped down as commander of the [-]th Division and has been the garrison commander of Hangzhou.

During the Battle of Singapore last year, the headquarters of the original [-]th Division was ransacked by the national army's Snow Wolf Special Forces in Beida Nian. Two regiments escaped from the engagement.

In the words of Ushishima Sadao, the locust warriors of the [-]th Division are the best soldiers, and they can be called the number one in the island country. Ren Mutaguchi also ruined this elite division.Therefore, when the island country was preparing to re-establish the [-]th Division, Ushishima Sadao volunteered, hoping to revive the [-]th Division.

In the first battle in the morning, the national army suffered a disastrous defeat, and the locust army won a complete victory. Ushishima Sadao uttered nonsense in the headquarters, saying that this is the real strength of the No.18 division, and only he Ushishima Sadao can make this army Shining brilliantly, with him Ushishima Sadao, the Zhina army would never want to cross the Cagayan River in front of him.

Originally thought that after the battle in the morning, the national army would definitely stop for a while, but after only a few hours, they started to toss again, and Ushishima Sadao had to go from the headquarters more than ten miles behind. Come and investigate.

They were also frightened by the national army's planes and heavy artillery, and the division headquarters were all built in the rear.

On the other side of the Cagayan River in front of you, there are swarms of national soldiers, machines roaring, and big trees falling down one after another.

Four huge brackets were also erected on the river bank, and the long skateboards stretched all the way to the river, everything looked a little weird.

Putting down the binoculars, Ushishima Sadao frowned, and muttered to himself: "What is the Zhina army going to do? Are you still planning to let the soldiers cross the river on skateboards?"

This was originally a teasing remark, but who knows that there are people who seconded it. A major officer flatteringly replied: "Your Excellency, you have a clear understanding of the fire. up."

"You think that everyone is like you, they are all pig-headed." Ushishima Sadao looked at the major with a look of contempt, and the grandson was so frightened that he quickly bowed his head, "Hay."

"I think they are preparing to build a ship. The curve is not good for attacking. They want to break through in a straight line." A senior officer said in a deep voice.

"Hmm... What Koto-kun said has some truth, tell me, tell me what you think." Ushishima Sadao gave Officer Dazuo an approving look.

Little Fujisawa, chief of staff of the [-]th Division of the Island Army, thought for a while, and said: "In the battle in the morning, Zhina's army suffered a big loss at the bend. The society is stepping up logging and building ships, and the impromptu and crude ships must be very heavy, so they need a slipway to quickly release these ships to the water."

"Then how do you think they will attack next?"

Little Fujisawa said: "If there is no accident, their heavy artillery division must be placed somewhere on the other side. It is nothing more than suppressing us with heavy firepower. The large troops will be on board immediately. They are going to attack by force."

"Then do you think they can succeed?"

Little Fujisawa hesitated for a few seconds, and said: "Just now, Shao Zuo Chitian said something very reasonable, that is, that person is poor in skills. This is indeed a very poor plan. No matter how strong their artillery fire is, they will not It may completely cover our position, because the ring-shaped fortifications we built are designed to deal with intensive bombing. As long as we still have a machine gun in every ten meters of the area, the firepower points we built can completely cover the entire river surface. The most important thing is that the improvised and crudely built boats are naturally heavy and heavy, and the speed of rowing is not fast enough to go there, so the time for them to cross the river will be extended. As long as we have enough bullets, they will throw as many corpses as they use to cross the river in the river."
