The Anti-Japanese War began with the TV series of crossing the Sichuan Army Chapter 240 Detachment Captain Kunizaki Akio and Division Chief Ushishima Sadao
"How do you think we can capture this small Cangcheng?"
"Although the artillery counterattack of the Chinese Army inside was very fierce, they have been fighting our Imperial Army for almost a day and a night. I think they are almost out of artillery shells, especially during the life-threatening bombardment of our aircraft group.
Next, I believe that the artillery and anti-aircraft firepower of the China Army inside will definitely not have a good time either!"
Noboru Kunizaki, the leader of the Kunisaki detachment, walked up to the division commander Ushijima Sadao and took the lead to get straight to the point.
"Stay up time!"
"In particular, I hope to strengthen the bombing of our aviation force. Also, I have notified our fleet to come to help. Once they come to help, we will have the bombing of the naval gun group!"
"If we fight like this, our siege speed should be faster!"
"And as soon as daybreak, I plan to capture the residential area outside Cangcheng first. No matter what the cost, I will seize the outside of Xiakangcheng. In addition, the side of Matsue City will be handed over to your Kunisaki detachment!"
The division commander of the 18th Division, Ushijima Sadao, nodded slightly and agreed.
"Okay! I will be responsible for the attack on Songjiang City, but in fact, my personal idea is that our two armies cooperate to capture Xiacang City together! Then, we attack Songjiang City together!"
"I also ordered the troops to bombard Songjiang City today. I feel that the heavy firepower configuration on that side is not as powerful as Cangcheng!"
"So I'm wondering if the main force of the Chinese Army is concentrated here in Cangcheng!"
"As long as we can capture Xiacang City and eliminate this main force of the Chinese Army, then Songjiang City will be in our possession!"
"And what I want to know most right now is whether the China Army that is currently resisting our attack in Cangcheng and Songjiang City will be fighting against our China Army on the Jinshan Guard side!"
"If so, I will definitely annihilate them no matter what the cost!"
"So I have already reported the situation here to our commander!"
"Requesting him to send reinforcements to support the Chinese army encircling this place!"
After the division commander Ushijima Sadao finished speaking, the detachment leader Noboru Kunisaki responded calmly.
"You have reported to Commander Yanagawa Heisuke?"
"How would he respond? Are you willing to send reinforcements to support our Chinese army encircling Cangcheng?"
"The heavy firepower configuration of the China Army is not inferior to ours at all. I suspect they are the elite elite troops of the China Army!"
After hearing that it had been reported to the 10th Army with Yanagawa Heisuke as the commander, the division commander Ushijima Sadao also asked curiously.
Although the commander of the 10th Army Yanagawa Heisuke and the chief of staff Moritake Tanabe, the only Japanese troops under their jurisdiction were the 6th, 18th, 114th Divisions and Kunisaki Detachment, as well as the 2nd Independent Mountain Artillery Regiment and the 6th Field Heavy Artillery Regiment.
Brigade, and the 1st and 2nd Reserve Infantry Regiments and other units.
As for the battle units currently deployed by the Japanese army in the Songhu Battle, they are only the 3rd, 9th, 11th, 13th, 101st Divisions and other special forces and air forces; the navy has the 3rd Fleet, the 4th Fleet and
A large number of aviation units, as well as the special marines stationed on land in Shanghai.
The total strength of the Japanese army exceeds 150,000. If the Japanese 10th Army is added, it will be 300,000 troops.
There are more than hundreds of aircraft, hundreds of tanks, more than hundreds of artillery pieces, and more than 70 warships;
On the other hand, in addition to having more troops than the Japanese army, the Chinese army completely lost to the Japanese army in terms of the heavy firepower configuration of the army. As for the air force and navy, they suffered even more losses.
It has lost air and sea control.
Therefore, the division commander Ushijima Sadao felt that to deal with such a weak force, the Japanese army could still dispatch one or two divisions to encircle He Feiyang's troops in Cangcheng.
Although doing so would embarrass the face of his division commander, division commander Ushijima Sadao felt it was worth it in order to be able to completely annihilate a heavy firepower force that was completely unexpected.
"Commander Yanagawa Heisuke did not have a clear answer about the reinforcements, but I feel that he should consider it, because I told him that the Chinese troops in Cangcheng and Songjiang City are likely to attack at night on the Jinshan Guard side.
Our China Army troops!"
"You must know that we lost a lot of casualties to the imperial warriors during the landing operation of Jinshan Guards that night. I believe Commander Yanagawa Heisuke will never forget this blood debt!"
"So I feel that he should give us some reinforcements to encircle and annihilate the Chinese army in Cangcheng and Songjiang City!"
In response to division commander Ushijima Sadao's questioning, Kunisaki detachment leader Noboru Kunizaki, who was also a little lacking in confidence, responded.
For him, it was really not clear whether the commander of the 10th Army, Yanagawa Heisuke, and the chief of staff, Tanabe Moritake, would give them reinforcements to encircle He Feiyang's troops.
Because the troops of the other two divisions and the reserve troops of the headquarters have other combat tasks,
Therefore, the detachment leader Kunizaki Noboru was not sure whether reinforcements could be sent.
"Well! If Commander Yanagawa Heisuke is really willing to dispatch reinforcements to support our battle, then of course it will be a good thing!"
"But if there are no reinforcements, then we also need to find a way to jointly capture Cangcheng and Songjiang City!"
Division commander Ushijima Sadao saw the detachment leader Noboru Kunisaki's unconfident performance. He also prepared the worst plan and responded.
"That's for sure!"
"You must know that my Kunisaki detachment was wiped out by these damn Chinese troops, almost half of its strength. I will definitely avenge this bloody feud!"
Detachment leader Kunizaki Noboru also responded with a serious look.
The night of the Jinshan Guard landing operation was something he would never forget.
That night, the casualties of his troops were so heavy for the first time since he became the detachment leader.
So for this hatred, he will definitely want to take revenge.
"Well! Let's do it after daybreak!"
"I am responsible for the main attack on Cangcheng. You first command your troops to test Songjiang City's counterattack capabilities, and then you will see the situation. Should you join forces with me to capture Xiacangcheng, or continue to divide your forces to fight!"
"Of course, my personal feeling is that I hope to divide our troops to attack two cities and seize them as soon as possible!"
"Because our Fourth Fleet will arrive here tomorrow to support our artillery and bombing operations, and the aviation force will continue to support our bombing operations!"
"So I am very confident that I will be able to capture Cangcheng tomorrow!"
"No one from the Chinese army inside who resists our imperial army can escape!"
Division commander Ushijima Sadao cast his gaze in the direction of Kurajo and said firmly.
The detachment leader Kunisaki Noboru also glanced at Cangcheng and said,
He immediately set his sights on Songjiang City, and his fighting spirit began to rise.
