Chapter 282 The Despair of Captain Daisho Akasaka(1/2)
In fact, Watanabeemon can't see far, if he can see farther.
The entire Sato Iya brigade is charging, and the entire brigade has now suffered three to four hundred casualties.
Such casualties made Captain Sato Iya very heartbroken: before the charge even started, so many troops were lost.
The number of Japanese in his brigade was less than 1,000.
It was precisely this situation that made him decide to push!
It also issued the same order: only attack, no retreat.
Captain Shigeto Chiaki is still in Yangjiazhai, and its headquarters is established here in Yangjiazhai.
I learned from the phone that the entire detachment had been bombarded by heavy artillery by the National Army, and its voice changed: "Nani? Will the National Army have heavy artillery?"
I don’t know who it is trying to ask!
Putting down the phone, Captain Shigeto Chiaki immediately called the Shanbao Chongwen Division and asked for artillery reinforcements!
It wanted to ask the artillery of the 11th Infantry Division to suppress the artillery of the National Army.
Only then did the commander of the Shanbao Chongwu Division hesitantly tell it: The division's artillery regiment is gone!
"Why is there no more?"
"It was blown up by the artillery of the national army!"
This news was like a bolt from the blue, and Chiaki Shigeto couldn't accept it at once: "Will the empire's artillery regiment be destroyed by the national army?"
This is something it cannot imagine.
The leader of the Shanbao Chongwu Division could not accept this fact, but it was the fact.
It could only put down the microphone silently, not wanting to talk to Shigeto Chiaki anymore.
Listening to the busy tone coming from the phone, Shigeto Chiaki put down the phone.
It ordered a telegram to be sent immediately to the Shanghai Dispatch Army Headquarters: requesting emergency aviation support.
The call back from the Shanghai Dispatch Force Headquarters was very quick: "In view of the special circumstances of the Luodian airspace, it is impossible to dispatch aviation troops for guidance."
The reply to this telegram was quick, direct and rude.
It knows clearly: now it can only let the Japanese in the front learn to endure it
They have to withstand the bombardment all the time, just wait until the national army's heavy artillery bombardment is enough.
The good mood that he had just arrived at the battlefield was gone. Captain Shigeto Chiaki was walking back and forth inside the headquarters.
It no longer has the calmness it had just now.
When Captain Shigeto Chiaki first landed ashore, he was very excited like all the Japanese.
I believe that this battle was just like what was advertised in the Asahi Shimbun, and that the national army collapsed at the first touch.
He didn't dare to fight against the imperial army at all. He just came to the battlefield to take credit.
For this, he also expressed his sincere thanks to the head of Ibanshan Bao Chongwen Division.
I sent my two favorite geishas up there.
When it comes to resources for beautiful women, Captain Shigeto Chiaki definitely has it easier than Captain Shanbao Chongbun.
Although the position of the captain of the Yamabo Sobun division is higher, the captain of the Shigeto Chiaki detachment is not only a detachment leader, but also actually oversees a large area of land.
It is the top military and political leader, with 20,000 or 30,000 soldiers under its command, and it also manages millions of people.
Such a position determines the value of its detachment leader.
Captain Shigeto Chiaki came here just to get gold plated and prepare for a jump promotion with military merit.
As a result, the leader of Shanbao Chongwen Division made a trick, which made him very sad:
I originally set my heart towards the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch!
Captain Shigeto Chiaki was more worried about how long the two infantry regiments could sustain under artillery bombardment.
You can't just go on the battlefield for half a day and collapse immediately!
If so, its position would be dangerous!
A position with high value will attract many people to stare at it.
Chiaki Shigeto was spinning around in circles inside the headquarters.
Gao Hongmin was flying a reconnaissance plane in circles in the air!
Those of them on the plane could still see the situation on the ground at first, and the bombing took a little longer.
The smoke and dust completely covered the ground, and they could not see anything.
At this time, the bombing by the 16th Artillery Regiment turned into random bombing.
Anyway, there are a lot of Japs in that area, tens of thousands of Japs, just blow them up!
The three fighter jets could attack the Japs on the ground at will, which made Li Ming, Wang Bo, and Fu Yesheng extremely happy.
They had just completed the task of robbing the Japanese cannons and watched the national army troops on the ground dragging the Japanese cannons away.
Feeling happy, I also started looking for another target to attack.
At this time, they also saw: a large amount of gunpowder smoke rose up, covering an area.
That area was full of devils.
It's a pity that they can't go in and shoot at this time.
However, they still found the fighter plane: there was no smoke in the area three hundred meters in front of the national defense line.
Only the Japanese are charging!
Gao Hongmin watched the three fighter jets attacking like they were having fun in the low altitude, feeling extremely envious in his heart.
His reconnaissance plane was equipped with more machine guns, but he did not dare to take risks.
Firstly, my tasks are different, and secondly, there are too many people on the plane, making it inconvenient to operate.
“Don’t lose big for small things!”
Gao Hongmin knew very well how much he had played in the annihilation of the Japanese 11th Division in the past two days by flying in the air and serving as an observation platform for the artillery regiment.
Especially after commanding the 16th Artillery Regiment to blow up the Japanese artillery positions yesterday.
Just after landing at Nanjing Airport, I saw Miss Song San standing on the runway to greet me.
He had just come down from the gangway, and Miss Song San personally presented him with a bouquet of flowers and took a photo with him.
This time today, the combat effect will definitely not be worse than yesterday.
Gao Hongmin is still confident in this point. After all, there are too many Japanese soldiers below, and they will all fall down when the shells are fired!
When squad leader Yamamoto Kazusuke directed the charge of the remaining thirty or so squad members, machine gun bullets flashed past his ears from time to time.
There is machine gun fire from the National Army in the front. They just need to be careful and lower their bodies to avoid being shot.
Although there are always people in the team who are shot and fall down, the casualties are still at an acceptable level.
The sudden scream in the air made all the charging Japanese soldiers tremble with fear.
Watanabe Gate looked in the direction of the sound and saw three fighter jets swooping down in the air.
The screams were coming from them, and fighter jets were shooting all the way.
This suddenly made all the attacking Japanese soldiers feel uncomfortable: they could still withstand the machine guns fired from the front.
The strafing fire from the air made it impossible for them to dodge.
what to do?
He could no longer hold on, and all the attacking Japanese prostrate themselves on the ground.
This is the only way, lying down is the best way.
Luo Zhuoying had a real-time grasp of the situation on the battlefield. When he heard that the Japanese had been completely suppressed by the front line.
Moreover, tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers suffered heavy casualties under the artillery bombardment.
"This is a good opportunity!"
Take advantage of its illness and kill it!
Luo Zhuoying formulated an attack plan and immediately reported it to Nanjing.
The Military Commission also has a real-time understanding of the situation on the battlefield, which is what the Chairman likes to do most.
If conditions didn't allow it, he would have directly commanded every soldier.
Seeing Luo Zhuoying's new plan, the staff of the Military Commission just discussed it.
The chairman of the committee ordered: "Immediately execute!"
So all the national army units from Luodian to Changshu took action.
The remaining four main divisions specially mobilized to encircle and suppress the 11th Japanese Infantry Division, plus the four divisions under Luo Zhuoying's original defense here.
