Chapter 5 Zero Zero Right Wing Breakthrough

Special Operations Brigade, Temporary Command.

Holding the binoculars, Liang Xiao watched the bomber fly overhead, circled in the sky, and then swooped down sharply in a swooping posture. He conducted a high-altitude reconnaissance of the Jiangwan headquarters. After confirming the bombing position, the air force dispatched more than forty A bomber bombed the Jiangwan headquarters.

Boom boom boom.

Bombs were dropped from the sky one after another, and the ground was rumbling and exploding. The scene was very spectacular like overwhelming mountains and seas.

Within a few kilometers of the Jiangwan headquarters, it was turned into a sea of ​​flames, countless houses collapsed, and thousands of Japanese soldiers were killed in this air strike.

A smile flashed across Liang Xiaojun's cold face, the Japanese army relied on their sea and air power to attack the Chinese army a lot, this time let them also experience the power of the Chinese fighter planes.

More than 40 fighter planes bombed in turn, which lasted for more than 20 minutes. The ground was full of aftermath caused by artillery explosions, smoke and dust were flying, the flames of war were burning, and it was scorched black.

buzzing.

Seeing a row of dark things appearing on the other side of the gloomy sky, Liang Xiao hurriedly took a look through the binoculars, it turned out to be a group of fighter jets, and the bright red Japanese sun flag on the fuselage was very eye-catching.

No, Japanese planes.

"Air attack, hide in place."

Liang Xiao hurriedly shouted to the troops outside the headquarters.

The ministries are well-trained, and after his voice fell, they quickly searched for a bunker to hide.

Liang Xiao was a little worried about the Chinese fighter planes in the sky. The Japanese fighter planes were obviously coming at them. Since the war started, the Japanese navy aviation bombers and the Chinese fighter planes had fought frequently for Shanghai's air dominance, and both sides had won and lost.

He can't help with this kind of sky combat, after all, there was no missile to attack fighter planes during World War II.

In the sky, I saw a group of Japanese fighter jets approaching the Chinese fighter planes. The rear team of the Chinese fighter planes changed to the front team and flew away to the northwest.

The Japanese fighter planes followed closely, and for a while, the sky was full of buzzing fighter planes.

Liang Xiao hesitated a little, if he launched an attack at this time, if the Japanese fighter planes returned to bomb, the loss would be huge, but if they gave up the attack, the bombing by the Chinese fighter planes that lasted for more than 20 minutes just now would be wasted in vain.

"Travel seat, the call of Master Song of the 36th Division."

The combat staff officer came over with a mobile walkie-talkie.

"Mr. Song."

"Your ministry has launched an attack"

"Okay, I will immediately order the troops to attack."

hang up the phone.

Liang Xiao turned around and ordered: "The first battalion and the third company are the vanguard, under the cover of armored vehicles, attack the Japanese army's position."

"Yes."

Orders are immediately communicated to the ministries.

The third company of the first battalion is a company with particularly strong combat effectiveness. In these few battles, the third company killed more than 20 Japanese soldiers at the cost of more than 200 casualties, and it is called an excellent model company.

The military order was passed down.

The soldiers of the third company followed behind the tanks and armored vehicles, and slowly attacked the Japanese positions.

The two tanks and armored vehicles of the Special Operations Brigade were seized from the Japanese army. After being maintained by repair experts, the two tanks and armored vehicles became the only offensive weapons of the Special Operations Brigade.

Two tanks dyed in green camouflage slowly rolled towards the Japanese position.

The Japanese army on the opposite position was completely stunned. The shape of these two tanks was almost exactly the same as theirs, except... the color was different.

Could it be that the Celestial Army seized their tanks and turned them against them?

When the tank moved forward slowly, the gun barrel fired two 2 shells towards the Japanese position.

I saw that the fortifications of the Japanese army's forward position were destroyed by two shells.

Seeing this scene, Liang Xiao suddenly laughed happily, the tank is really a good thing, the bullets of the Japanese army can't threaten it at all.

I saw the Japanese army's forward positions concentrate their firepower on the tank. The bullets hit the outside of the tank, and sparks flew everywhere, but they couldn't stop it in the slightest.

Seeing that the tanks were less than 20 meters away from the Japanese positions, the Japanese forward positions hurriedly formed death squads, rushed out of the positions and tried to block the advance of the tanks with manpower.

Liang Xiao observed through the binoculars that the soldiers behind the Japanese army were holding explosive packs, and it seemed that they were going to use the explosive packs to blow up the tank.

When the tank charges, the infantry should act as a cover to prevent the enemy from taking the opportunity to destroy the tank.

At the beginning of the Chinese army on the Shanghai battlefield, they made a big mistake of coordinating infantry and tanks. The tanks charged, but the infantry did not provide cover, and the infantry charged, but the tanks did not cooperate. As a result, the tanks were easily destroyed by the Japanese army, resulting in the failure of the attack.

The special warfare brigade is different. When training the group to attack, the national instructor talked about the importance of the coordination of infantry and tanks. Infantry covers tanks, and tanks protect infantry charges. The two complement each other and can be closely coordinated.

On the battlefield, after the Japanese death squad rushed out, the soldiers of the third company immediately used the cover of tanks and armored vehicles to shoot at the Japanese death squad.

The distance was so close, the German submachine guns of the soldiers of the Special Operations Brigade fully displayed their power, a shuttle of bullets shot out, and rows of Japanese soldiers fell down.

The tanks rolled over the corpses of the Japanese soldiers and rolled them up towards the Japanese positions.

Liang Xiao didn't expect that the Japanese army's position would be breached so easily, and he immediately ordered the follow-up troops to follow closely.

The Japanese army did not expect the position to be breached so easily. In their cognition, the attack of the Chinese army was...covered by artillery, and then the soldiers charged with flesh and blood. They had never encountered the Chinese army's coordinated attack with infantry and tanks.

After a gap was opened in the Japanese army's position, the special operations brigade rushed up and launched a fierce attack on the Japanese army under the cover of tanks.

The battle went very smoothly. In just ten minutes, the battle line was pushed forward 500 meters. At this speed, the center of the Jiangwan headquarters could be reached before dark.

特战旅这边进展的很顺利,但36师和98师的进攻受到了日军猛烈阻击,双方都动用了炮火覆盖,战斗极其惨烈,36师和98师没有坦克掩护,只能拿士兵的血肉之躯冲锋,而日军则是躲在阵地,用机枪和手雷进行防御,在猛烈的火力打击下,36师和98师两次发起冲锋,均宣告失败.

Just when they were at a loss, they heard that the special warfare brigade broke through the Japanese right-wing front, and the Japanese troops on the frontal battlefield and the Japanese left-wing troops respectively sent reinforcements to the right flank. In this way, the pressure on the frontal battlefield was reduced a lot. , the 36th Division organized a death squad for officers, and charged towards the Japanese positions with the belief that they must die.

This wave of charge can be said to have condensed most of the elite officers and soldiers of the 36th Division. If the gap in the frontal battlefield cannot be opened, the 36th Division will no longer be able to attack the Japanese positions.

Chapter 5 and one are advancing steadily

The battle in Shanghai attracted the attention of the western countries. They thought that it would be a matter of time before the Chinese army would withdraw from Shanghai. Unexpectedly, the battle situation took a turn for the worse. The Chinese army swept the Japanese army positions with destructive combat power and surrounded the Japanese army headquarters in Jiangwan.

Media reporters from western countries rushed to interview the Chinese army. They wanted to know why the Chinese army had increased its combat effectiveness in a short period of time and defeated the military power known as the number one in Asia one after another.

A female reporter from China came to interview the special warfare brigade, Liang Xiao sent someone to send her to Xia Chuzhong's 98th Division.

The special warfare brigade is a special warfare force built by him, and the outside world cannot see the true combat effectiveness of the special warfare brigade.

Moreover, now that the war is tense, he is not in the mood to allow officers and soldiers to be interviewed.

"Report."

"Brigade, the Japanese army has reinforced the right-wing battlefield on a large scale. Our forward troops have been suppressed by the Japanese artillery fire, and the attack has been blocked."

"Report."

"The division broke through the battlefield in the middle and is pushing forward in one go."

"Report."

"The division captured the Japanese position on the left flank and is advancing steadily."

Liang Xiao smiled and said, "Call Song Xilian and Xia Chuzhong, let them attack with all their strength, success or failure depends on one move."

"Yes."

At present, the Chinese army has already broken through the frontier positions of the Japanese army, and is advancing side by side to the Japanese army headquarters in Jiangwan.

Liang Xiao judged that the next step for the Japanese army would be to take advantage of the complex terrain of the Jiangwan Command to fight back.

In this small area, more than 3 troops from both China and Japan have assembled.

If the attack is carried out step by step, even if the Japanese army's Jiangwan headquarters can be captured, the Chinese army will lose its combat effectiveness.

The only way now is... to force the Japanese army to the Jiangwan area, and then let the heavy artillery carry out large-scale bombardment of the Jiangwan area. With the shell caliber of the heavy artillery force, only one ton of shells can blow up the Jiangwan area. a ruin.

"Turn on the heavy artillery."

Liang Xiao wanted to make a phone call with the head of the heavy artillery, Gao, and asked the heavy artillery to prepare a ton of shells to launch a large-scale artillery attack on the Jiangwan area.

"Hey, anti-aircraft guns, I'm the former enemy general headquarters, I ask you, Commander Gao, to answer the phone."

"Commander Gao, General Liang wants to talk to you."

Liang Xiao took the phone and asked directly: "Gao Shilong, do you have any heavy artillery ... a ton of shells?"

"Report to General Liang, our heavy artillery has two tons of shells."

Gao Shilong replied.

"Very well, let your heavy artillery unit do the shelling. Before the afternoon, I will send someone to send you the coordinates."

Liang Xiao said.

"Don't worry, general, the heavy artillery is waiting for your order at any time."

high.

hang up the phone.

Liang Xiao immediately dispatched a number of reconnaissance teams, ordering them to reconnaissance the deployment of Japanese troops in the Jiangwan area, and marked them on the map.

The Jiangwan area is the location of the headquarters of the Japanese Army's Shanghai Expeditionary Force, and it is also the base camp of the Japanese army in Shanghai, including the Japanese Army Hospital, the Japanese Secret Service, etc...

This attack on the Jiangwan Command, the Army Hospital and the Secret Service are the key targets of attack.

"Report."

"After our army covered it with mortars, the vanguard advanced another 200 meters."

Liang Xiao looked at the map, and the vanguard advanced 800 meters, that is... the Japanese Army Hospital "ordered the vanguard to take advantage of the Japanese army's retreat, bite them hard, and advance the battle line 800 meters. "

Liang Xiao had already figured it out in his mind, the Japanese Army Hospital had advanced medical equipment, which was a huge fortune to him, so the troops moved forward 800 meters, just in time to reach the Army Hospital.

"General, should we wait for the 36th and 98th divisions? If our right-wing front advances too fast, it will attract a large number of Japanese reinforcements, and the pressure on our special warfare brigade will increase."

Combat staff officer said.

"It doesn't matter, only if our right-wing front continues to advance, can we drive the central battlefield and the left-wing front to continue to break through. If our attack is slow, the Japanese army will concentrate their forces on the central battlefield. With the current casualties of the 36th Division, once the morale drops, they will be unable to attack again. Attacked."

Liang Xiao said slowly.

"But in this way, the pressure on our right-wing battlefield will increase tremendously, and we are afraid that the vanguard will not be able to withstand it."

Combat staff officer said.

"Let the first battalion and the second company go up to serve as the vanguard, and replace the third company."

Liang Xiao said.

"Yes."

The combat staff was busy delivering orders.

"General, please send a telegram."

Chu Xiangxue walked over with the telegram she just received.

"The old man who appointed him is urging him to ask about the war again?"

Liang Xiao said in a teasing tone.

"Yes, I sent a power call to ask where our vanguard troops have attacked."

Chu Xiangxue remembered very clearly that this was the third telegram sent by the Commissioner today asking about the war.

"Return to the committee, the leading troops of our department are advancing towards the Japanese Army Hospital and are expected to arrive at the Japanese Army Hospital in an hour. The 36th Division and the 98th Division are progressing smoothly. The leading troops of the 36th Division are only two kilometers away from the Japanese Army Headquarters and are advancing steadily. The 98th Division is advancing steadily towards the Japanese cotton mill, and it is expected that soldiers will encircle the headquarters of the Shanghai Expeditionary Army tonight."

Liang Xiao said.

"The humble post will be sent to the committee immediately."

Chu Xiangxue hurriedly turned around to send a telegram.

There are seven or eight radio stations in the temporary headquarters. There are more than 20 staff officers and radio operators. Outside the headquarters, the guards are guarding the airtight. On the periphery of the guards, there is a company guarding the guard battalion. Security is very secure.

Liang Xiao knew very well the truth that a gentleman should not stand behind a dangerous wall. Therefore, he has hardly left the headquarters since the war. But it would be too unfair.

This morning, a staff officer of the brigade headquarter went out to inspect the battle. Unfortunately, he was hit by a stray bullet. Fortunately, he did not hurt any vital parts, but only hit his shoulder. It is estimated that he will take about three months to recover.

"General, the assassination team is calling."

Tang Menghan walked over with the telegram he had just received, and handed it to Liang Xiao himself.
