Tang Menghan walked over with the telegram.

Liang Xiao took the telegram and glanced at it, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

I saw two lines of words written on the telegram: All ministries will attack Wusong with all their strength, encircle and wipe out the China Special Warfare Division.

"Forward this telegram to the chamberlain of the Nanjing Commissioner."

"Yes."

Tang Menghan turned around to generate electricity.

Liang Xiao could guess the intention of the Japanese army. They wanted to completely annihilate the special combat division and get out of the shadow of failure. After all, from the start of the war to now, all the troops of the national army have not achieved any major results, except for the special combat division. On the Shanghai battlefield, he commanded the special warfare division and the 36th and 98th divisions, annihilating the Japanese dispatched army in Shanghai, and killed the commander of the Japanese dispatched army, Xiangyue Qingsi. Then he wiped out the reorganized divisions of the Japanese army, and the commander of the division was captured. On the Liushugou battlefield, he wiped out most of the Taiwan brigade. On the shore of Wusong Port, he commanded the heavy artillery to sink the Japanese landing fleet.

In the eyes of the Japanese army, the special warfare division has become a thorn in their side and a thorn in their flesh. If the thorn in the side of the special warfare division is not removed, they will always live in the shadow of the special warfare division.

Although the situation on the battlefield was not optimistic, Liang Xiao never had a trace of despair. He showed his determination to die on the battlefield to his subordinates, which also stimulated the morale of the troops and made them determined to die.

Chapter 30 Blowing up the Japanese Fleet

Wu Song.

It has become the site of the Four Wars.

In order to annihilate the special warfare division, the Japanese army ordered the army, sea and air forces to attack Wusong at all costs, and the situation was in jeopardy.

On the Songhu battlefield, the various units of the national army were in a bitter battle, and no reinforcements rushed to Wusong to support them.

On the Wusong battlefield, there is only one special warfare division and one loyal and national salvation army, and this is Liang Xiao's entire family property.

This time, he wants to gamble all his fortune and fight a fierce battle with the Japanese army.

"Division seat, Brigadier Commander Sun reported that Japanese Army 14 is launching a fierce attack on the first brigade's position with tanks opening the way and aircraft as cover. They have abandoned the first position and are blocking it step by step."

"Master seat, Brigadier Commander Qi reports that the Japanese army brigade coming from Baozipu let them block three beams, and they are trying to annihilate this Japanese army."

"Division seat, the two fake heavy artillery positions have been deployed."

"Division seat, the Japanese gunboats are bombarding the beachhead one by one, and the transport ships are tentatively approaching the beachhead, intending to land from the beachhead."

"Division seat, there are more than 80 enemy planes in the sky above Wusongkou. They have formed four 44 aviation bombing formations and are carrying out large-scale bombing around Wusong Town."

A battle report was sent to the division headquarters.

Wearing a helmet, Liang Xiao was lying on the map to study.

The current situation is still under his control, as long as the Japanese army in the direction of Baoshan can't break through the defense line of the First Special Operations Brigade, Wusongkou will not be lost.

Around the headquarters, shells kept falling, and the sound of explosions kept coming and going.

From daybreak to now, the sound of Japanese artillery shells has not stopped, and the entire Wusongkou is about to be blown into a piece of scorched earth.

"Division seat, three gunboats have entered the firing range of No. [-] heavy artillery position."

"Order to order the No. [-] Heavy Artillery to destroy these three gunboats."

"Yes."

The combat staff immediately issued orders to the fort.

3 minutes later.

The two 125mm howitzers of the No. [-] Heavy Artillery fired four shells in succession.

The sound of gunfire shook the sky.

The three gunboats on the Wusongkou River were immediately blown up by howitzers, and a rumbling sound was heard, and the three gunboats ignited raging fire, and the gunboats sank immediately.

Seeing that the three gunboats were sunk by bombing, the Japanese navy immediately ordered all the gunboats to move forward at full speed and launch bombardment at the heavy artillery units of the Chinese army.

Headquarters, Liang Xiao is resting with his eyes closed.

"Master seat, three Japanese gunboats have been blown up."

Zhou Shiji said.

Liang Xiao opened his eyes and said: "Order 2, wait for all the Japanese gunboats to come into range, finish firing all the shells within 3 minutes, and tell them that I want to see that there is no longer a Japanese gunboat on the river at Wusongkou. "

"clear."

Zhou Shiji was busy making arrangements.

Boom... There was an earth-shattering explosion.

A few miles around, it was like a strong earthquake.

Liang Xiao took a binoculars to look at the river, but the earthquake-like explosion shook him back a few steps.

"Master, it's a success."

Zhou Shiji laughed loudly.

Hearing such movements, he naturally knew that he had succeeded.

The Japanese navy thought that they had discovered the position of the heavy artillery unit, and they couldn't wait to drive into the firing range of the No. 2 Fort. As a result, they were directly covered by the howitzers of the No. 2 Fort. A dozen gunboats were blown up by shells. At the place where the gunboats stored ammunition, the shells on the gunboats were detonated, causing several gunboats to explode one after another.

The naval soldiers on the Japanese gunboat and the army soldiers on the transport ship were all buried at the bottom of the river, and the blood mixed with the river water, dyeing the whole river red.

Just when No. 2 Fortress fired all the howitzers and was about to evacuate, dozens of planes of the Japanese Air Force rushed over aggressively. Bombs were dropped from the sky. No. 2 Fort was blown up instantly, and more than 30 artillerymen were killed. Under the bombs of the Japanese Air Force.

"Master seat, all the gunboats on the river were blown up, devastated, and floating corpses everywhere. Our army's No. 2 Fort and No. [-] Fort were also destroyed by the Japanese Air Force."

Zhou Shiji said.

"Thousands of Japanese soldiers were buried under the sea, and more than a dozen Japanese gunboats were blown up, while our side only consumed more than one ton of ammunition and seven howitzers. This transaction is worthwhile."

Liang Xiao knows how to choose. There is no absolute free lunch in this world. He ate a fleet of the Japanese Navy in one go. How can he do it without paying a price.

"Master seat, what to do next?"

Zhou Shiji asked.

"Concentrate our forces and destroy the Japanese Sato brigade that came over from the bun shop."

A look of relief flashed in Liang Xiao's eyes, after solving the threat on the river, the next step is to solve the Japanese army on the ground.

"But Baozipu only has the strength of one brigade, so I'm afraid it won't be able to destroy the Japanese Sato brigade."

Zhou Shiji said worriedly.

"I'll take the special operations brigade directly under the division headquarters, the mortar battalion, the directly subordinate battalion, the machine gun company, and the pistol company to Sandaoliang to support the 2nd and [-]nd Brigade. You stay at the headquarters."

Liang Xiao said.

"Master, shells are raining like rain outside, I should take the troops to Sandaoliang, and you will be in command."

Zhou Shiji hurriedly said, Liang Xiao is the backbone of the [-] army at Wusongkou, if something happens to him, what will happen to the [-] army.

"Needless to say, I have made up my mind."

Liang Xiao called for the combat staff officer and asked him to gather all the troops directly under the division headquarters and follow him to Sandaoliang for reinforcements.

The units directly under the division headquarters received the order and assembled immediately.

Liang Xiao took off the lieutenant general's uniform, changed into a camouflage uniform, wore a camouflage combat helmet and leather shoes, and set off from the headquarters with the guards.

At this moment, the fierce battle at Three Daoliang is in full swing.

The reason why the three beams are called three beams is because there are three beams here, and each beam is about two or three kilometers long. It is not easy for the Japanese army to cross the three beams. After all, the terrain is dangerous and heavy weapons cannot keep up.

Qi Ming led the 2nd and [-]nd Brigade to set up machine gun positions and mountain artillery positions on the first beam, forming a double firepower against machine guns and artillery fire, and mass-destroying the attacking troops of the Sato Brigade.

The order the Japanese army received this time was to encircle and wipe out the special warfare division at all costs and take down Wusongkou, an important military town.

Therefore, after the Sato brigade encountered heavy fire from the 2nd and [-]nd Brigade, they still bravely attacked Sandaoliang without fear of death.

Below the first beam, the corpses of Japanese soldiers are scattered all over the mountain.

They risked: Heavy firepower strikes came up again and again, but they were all beaten down. The battle fell into a stalemate. The Japanese army launched frequent attacks. Each attack was an infantry squadron charging under the cover of tanks. , The Sato brigade has reimbursed two infantry squadrons in a row.

2nd Brigade Headquarters.

Qi Ming looked at the situation on the battlefield through the binoculars, and took a deep breath. He had heard that the Sato Brigade was good at fighting tough and tough battles, and this time he learned the lesson.

Chapter 31 Front and rear flanking

On the battlefield, gunpowder filled the air.

The officers and soldiers of the 2nd and [-]nd Brigade repelled the infantry and tank coordinated attacks of the enemy Sato Brigade several times in a row.

The two sides fought fiercely on the first beam.

Liang Xiao led the troops directly under the division to the headquarters of the 2nd and [-]nd Brigade.

"Master, why did you come here in person?"

Qi Ming exclaimed.

"Whether the three-dimensional attack of the Japanese army can be crushed, the three beams are the most critical."

Liang Xiao asked in a deep voice, "How is the situation now?"

"The Sato brigade attacked quickly, but we beat them all back. The three beams are still in our hands."

Qi Ming said.

"What I want is not to fight back, but to annihilate the Sato brigade, completely cutting off the tactical intention of the Japanese army to encircle all sides. At present, the threat from the navy has been lifted, leaving the fighters in the air and the army on the ground. The Japanese fighters in the air have no We don’t have anti-aircraft guns, but the ground troops must wipe them out as soon as possible.”

Liang Xiao said.

"Master, I'm working on a plan to wipe out the Sato brigade, but our brigade's strength is a bit weak. Even if we can swallow the Sato brigade, our department will face heavy losses. I implore the division to send troops to support us."

Qi Ming said.

"I came here this time to...support you."

Liang Xiao said.

"How many... troops did the division bring?"

Qi Ming looked happy.

"I brought the special warfare brigade, the direct battalion, the mortar battalion, the pistol company, the machine gun company, about 1000 people, and the 2 people in your 7000nd and [-]nd Brigade added up, barely close to [-] troops."

Liang Xiao said.

When more than 1000 people heard the news, there was a bit of bitterness in the corner of their mouths. The Sato Brigade on the opposite side was a reorganized brigade with more than 1 people. There were [-] infantry guns, tanks and armored vehicles, and mortars. Grenadiers and other firepower, the important thing is that they have Japanese fighter planes supporting them in the sky.

"Ten thousand against ten thousand. In terms of military strength, both sides are equal. In terms of weapons, we have what they have. In terms of terrain, we have three beams of geographical advantage. The only shortcoming is that they have air support, and we do not. "

A sneer appeared at the corner of Liang Xiao's mouth: "Sandaoliang is...the place where Sato Brigade is buried."

"Master, don't be careless. The Sato brigade is famous for its ferocity. They are going straight to Wusongkou, so they must be fully prepared."

Qi Ming said.

"Tell me about your battle plan"

Liang Xiao waved his hand, he didn't need his subordinates to remind him how to fight, he had his own sense of propriety.

"In my humble opinion, if our army wants to annihilate them in one fell swoop, the only way to catch them by surprise is by surprise. Sato built his headquarters on a hill five kilometers away from Sandaoliang. Our army can send four 44th battalion troops to attack them at night. Go around to the back of Sato's command post, then flank back and forth, and eat the Sato brigade in one fell swoop."

Qi Ming said.

Liang Xiao pondered for a moment, and said, "I think so. Fighting at night can avoid the surveillance of enemy planes, and attack from front and back. It is a good way, but the problem is that four 44 battalions are deployed to attack from the rear, leaving only two battalions in front." With the more than 1000 troops I brought, the total is more than 4000. Once the Sato brigade has insufficient troops, what should we do if we concentrate our superior forces to attack the frontal troops?"

"I also thought this way. Once the Sato brigade sent heavy troops to fight our front troops, they would order the front troops to withdraw to the first beam to attract the enemy's firepower and buy time for the rear troops to attack."

Qi Ming said.

"No, since it is a front and back attack, we should attack aggressively, and we must not take half a step back. Otherwise, it is difficult to guarantee that Sandaoliang will not be taken by Sato's brigade. At that time, he can attack Wusongkou when he advances, and block the attack behind Sandaoliang. force."

Liang Xiao said.

"But with our strength"

Qi Ming said.

Liang Xiao pondered for a while, and said: "I will order the first detachment of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army to come to Sandaoliang at 8:0 p.m. With a strength of more than 6000 troops, with tanks and armored vehicles clearing the way, even if the Sato Brigade is forged with iron, it cannot resist flanking attacks from front and back.”

"Master is wise, but in this way, the garrison at Wusongkou only has one detachment. Once the Japanese army lands again from the sea, Wusongkou may be in danger."

Qi Ming said.

"No, the entire fleet of the Japanese navy was wiped out, even the transport ships full of soldiers were destroyed, and the river was full of corpses of Japanese soldiers. As long as the Japanese navy is not crazy, it will not land tonight. Besides, although we lost seven howitzers , but the position of the heavy artillery unit has not been exposed, if the Japanese navy tries to land again, the heavy artillery unit can completely sink their gunboats in the river.”
