Three divisions of the Japanese army have been urgently transferred to Shanghai. Whether there will be subsequent reinforcements and how many they will be is unknown to Zhang Jun. However, Japan is divided into two serious factions, the northward faction and the southward faction. The northward faction advocates

Based on Manchuria, they used Manchuria's food and materials to attack North China, and then occupied the Central Plains. Whoever conquers the Central Plains will conquer the world. However, the southbound faction believed that they could not give up the besieged Japanese elite and the already occupied Shanghai metropolis.

How could those short-sighted little Japanese spit out these things? The southbound faction insisted on continuing to increase troops in Shanghai and engage in a decisive battle with the Chinese Communist Party in Shanghai.

The two sides quarreled endlessly and could not settle for a while, but the pace of Japan's domestic military expansion never stopped for a moment. Whether it was going north or south, troops were always needed, and there was not much time left for Zhang Jun. On the one hand,

It is the international pressure. Western powers continue to put pressure on Germany, and even use economic sanctions to deal with Germany. The second aspect is the military pressure from Japan. The Chinese Army has a large number of personnel, but generally the weapons are crude. China is a country that cannot even make cannons.

Countries that have not come out have only a pitiful 50,000 tons of steel production. How can they compete with Japan for national strength and consumption? They can only rely on foreign aid. But where is China's foreign aid now? And Sichuan's industry has just begun to build. It needs to be fully utilized.

It takes time to take effect.

The 130,000 German armorers in Zhang Jun's hands were the most elite and most advanced army in China at this time, and they had to participate in brutal street fighting. When more than 60,000 Japanese troops in Danyang were annihilated, they didn't know that these ten

How many 30,000 troops can be left, but Zhang Jun has to fight to eliminate the besieged Japanese troops as soon as possible so that the Chinese army can free up their hands. Now these more than 60,000 Japanese soldiers have restrained China's more than 700,000 elite troops. If

If something goes wrong with these 700,000 troops, then China will really be in danger of national subjugation.

After a day of rest and preparation, Zhang Jun mobilized 550,000 troops this time to launch the Danyang annihilation campaign. It was also divided into ten general attacks, each with 50,000 troops and a reserve force of 50,000. Zhang Jun

This time, the 74th Army was retained, but all the tanks, armored vehicles and artillery of the 74th Army were sent out. Each route can be supported by fifteen tanks and ten armored vehicles, and aircraft can also be called.

support.

Zhang Jun kept the Seventy-Fourth Army not for himself, but for the veteran’s baby bump. If this battle was really brutal and Zhang Jun really killed Jiang Zhongzheng’s baby bump, it is estimated that Jiang Zhongzheng would

Zhang Jun felt a lot of resentment, which was not conducive to Zhang Jun's future cooperation with Chiang Zhongzheng. After all, Chiang Zhongzheng was the leader of China at this time. If Zhang Jun wanted to help China in some aspects, he could only go through the Bodhisattva Chiang Zhongzheng.

All division commanders of the 74th Army came to Zhang Jun to intercede, even Rommel was no exception:

"Dear Commander-in-Chief, I admire your commanding skills, but please do not break up my armored assault group and hand it over to other central armies. They have not been trained in infantry-tank coordinated combat at all. If their infantry cannot

Protect the tanks, so that our tanks can only be targets for the enemy's suicide squads. I beg you to continue to follow the plan of the last urban street battle and assign tanks and armored vehicles to the German weapons division, let them do the main attack, and other offensive forces will act as a containment

effect."

Of course Rommel's words make sense. Zhang Jun did the same thing last time. Although Zhang Jun could only sit at the general headquarters, the other offensive troops had a hard time fighting in the last attack. It's not that Zhang Jun didn't know that both sides had reached the point where they were mutually exclusive.

At the level of fighting "human bombs", they are also heroic Chinese people and deserve the same treatment. They cannot be treated differently because they are not German weapon masters, and they cannot be treated lightly because they are not direct descendants of Chairman Chiang Kai-shek.

, all Chinese who resisted aggression are national heroes, regardless of faction, region or political belief.

At Rommel's request, and under the sincere eyes of several other German division commanders, Zhang Jun asked all Chinese commanders and staff to exit the command room hall and began to give political lessons to the German officers he had brought.

, because these well-known division commanders will be Zhang Jun's biggest support in the future. They must be convinced and cannot use mandatory orders. You must know that these people in Zhang Jun's hands now will have a significant role in the history of later generations.

Zhang Jun is just a military enthusiast of later generations. He is familiar with the development trajectory of history and the overall situation of the world at that time, so he can better grasp the overall situation and formulate some correct strategic plans, but specific tactical tasks depend on them.

It requires famous generals to implement it, otherwise the strategic plan will only be like a moon in the water and a flower in the mirror.

"Dear comrades, first of all, I pay tribute to your bravery and senselessness. Your tactical training is impeccable. Now I will talk about the reasons why the 74th Army is not sent into street fighting. I hope my comrades can understand it.

reason.

First, there are more than 60,000 Japanese troops in Danyang City this time, and Danyang is the material storage place for the Japanese army to attack Nanjing. In other words, the weapons, ammunition and various materials of the Japanese army we are about to attack will be very sufficient, and various fortifications will also be sufficient.

The building will be very complete, so we need a large number of aircraft to assist in the battle, and our aircraft currently only include more than 30 JU87 dive bombers, and Danyang City has an urban area of ​​​​20 square kilometers, and our bombers are simply not enough.

So I used the truce of the 74th Army to exchange the air force command rights of China and the Soviet Union from Chairman Chiang. Now our air force will reach more than 300 aircraft, and some fighter jets can also carry two 25-pound bombs.

Ground support. Comrades, imagine how much our casualties will be reduced with the addition of these air forces.

Second, my retention of the Seventy-Fourth Army is entirely out of political necessity. You also know that Chairman Chiang is the leader of China, but now China is only a unified regime on the surface. In fact, there are many local warlords. Then Chairman Chiang

What we use to ensure our status is undoubtedly the army, and the most powerful force in China today is the 74th German Armored Corps. If I use up all of Chairman Chiang’s treasures in this battle, it will cause us

There is a deep misunderstanding between us, and we in Germany will purchase a variety of minerals from China in the future. This misunderstanding will create obstacles for us to cooperate again.

For the above two reasons, I think it is enough for all comrades to understand the powerful relationship. If you really want to join the war, you can freely choose the battlefield and go to the front line to help those troops who have not been trained in infantry-tank cooperative operations and guide them.

To better protect the tanks and destroy the enemy more effectively, I will issue an order now to satisfy your desire for war. That's great, but the 74th Army cannot be used.

"Thank you, Commander-in-Chief, we are very willing to go to the front line and fight side by side with our tanks."

…

Zhang Jun finally sent away these stubborn Germans. Zhang Jun also wanted to go to the front line, but the dispatch of the 550,000-strong army and the supply of ammunition could not make any mistakes. Now Zhang Jun's battle

The staff team in the command room has more than 200 people, divided into more than a dozen groups, including those in charge of ammunition, food, communications, air force, etc. No mistakes can be made in any link. Zhang

Jun is also fighting, but his post is in the command room. He is also the brains of the entire army and the basis for victory.

Zhang Jun originally wanted to keep Rommel to discuss strategies and tactics with him, but he didn't know that Rommel was unwilling to stay in the command post even if he was killed. He insisted on staying with his tank. The tank was his life and the tank was him.

All of this. Zhang Jun could only coordinate and coordinate with Yu Jishi and other Chinese generals.

"General Yu, please introduce to me the characteristics of Danyang City and see if there is any simple and convenient way."

Yu Jishi looked like a typical civil servant, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and began to tell Zhang Jun the situation in Danyang in detail:

"Danyang City is located in the southeast of Zhenjiang City, in the Yangtze River Delta and the Shanghai Economic Circle Corridor; it borders Wujin District and Xinbei District of Changzhou City to the east, Jurong City to the west, Dantu District of Zhenjiang City, Jintan City to the south, and Jintan City to the north.

Zhenjiang New District, across the river from Yangzhong City, is an ancient cultural city with a long history. The entire city is four kilometers long from east to west and five kilometers long from north to south. The urban area covers an area of ​​20 square kilometers. The main buildings are frame-type wooden structure houses, which are approximately

Accounting for about 60%, houses with brick and tile structures account for about 30%, and cement buildings account for about 10%."

After listening to Yu Jishi's story, Zhang Jun began to think in his mind. The Japanese army retreated into Danyang under the fierce attack of the Chinese army. It didn't take long. It was already a great miracle to build a complete fortification group in the city.

There should be no time to build underground tunnels, and the wooden houses in Danyang can be attacked by fire, but this will turn Danyang into ashes. The Battle of Wuhan in history was because the defenders set fire to the city, and in history

Leave a bad name on it.

"General Yu, after we captured Changzhou, how was the damage to the houses inside? Can you give us detailed data?"

"Commander-in-Chief, I know some general information about this, but I can't give you specific statistics. Now 90% of the wooden houses in Changzhou City can no longer be used, while the brick structures are better, and the buildings have also been completely bombed by our army.

flat."

That is to say, the last city attack has reduced Changzhou City to ruins. In this case, Zhang Jun decided to use fire attack. If he really makes himself infamous in history, he will be scolded for the motherland, and everything will be worth it.

Zhang Jun only had a few hundred incendiary bombs. When he was still in Germany, in order to test the performance of these incendiary bombs, his father-in-law forcibly gave them to him. Now he can use them.

"Send a report to the Nanjing Meteorological Bureau to inquire about the weather and wind direction tonight."

The Nanjing Meteorological Bureau quickly called back and said that the weather will be clear tonight, no moon, but there will be stars. The breeze will be Level 3 from east to west."

In this case, Zhang Jun did not preach any humanity to Little Japan. He directly ordered the Air Force to bring incendiary bombs and throw incendiary bombs to the east of Danyang City. The incendiary bombs were thrown upwind. There were so many wooden houses. If the Japanese wanted to put out the fire, basically

Impossible. After a night of fire, no one knows how many little devils will be buried in the flames.

The leader of the flight group: Erich Hartmann, and a group of Soviet horizontal bombers carried Zhang Jun's incendiary bombs and dropped the fatal incendiary bombs on Danyang City under the dim starlight.
