Wanning, Continental Fort, Zhang Dali finally felt that something was wrong, damn, the Japanese on the opposite side seemed abnormal, he thought like this, and became confused,
After working for more than two hours and finally building the advance fortifications, the Japanese from Hashimoto's brigade lay down on the ground and started shooting. The sound of gunfire continued. From a distance, one could not tell how fierce a fight was taking place here. fighting,
The other Japs finally landed. They huddled in the trench built by the large group of Japs and never showed their heads again.
Seeing this scene, Arima Masafumi, who had been expecting them to launch even a tentative attack, finally couldn't bear it anymore and became furious. "Hakka, bastard, shame..." He loudly cursed Hashimoto and other officers, with a fierce light in his eyes, His right hand pulled out the pistol countless times, and he had a strong tendency to personally enforce military law.
All the naval officers who stayed behind in the fleet were very angry. Due to historical reasons, they naturally thought that the officers and soldiers of the Osaka Division were deliberately making things difficult for them. Many of them were ready to make a move, and even had the idea of taking this opportunity to repair them. The navy and the army have always been at odds with each other, but they have never had any problems with their coordinated operations. In the battle against China, the navy has always been the supporting force of the army. After a thousand years of waiting, it finally took the leading role this time. I didn't expect the army to be like this. Not giving face,
Arima and the others overestimated the soldiers of the Osaka Division. Perhaps the senior officers among them did have this idea and felt that the navy should not be allowed to take the great credit of conquering Hainan. However, as far as the soldiers below were concerned, they did not think so. As for lofty ideals, Arima had no chance to hear the conversation between some soldiers in the Hashimoto Brigade. If he had heard it, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.
"I asked, have any of you ever seen a Chinese tape recorder?"
"A tape recorder, something."
"It can be used as a radio, and it can also play cassettes. Yes, it is a cassette. One of my classmates mentioned to me in a letter that when he was fighting in Ganzhou, he was lucky enough to find one from the dead Chinese people. This thing can play Beautiful music is like a record player, but it’s only so big and can be carried anywhere.”
"Wow, is this true? If we can get something like this and buy it in China, then we will distribute it."
"Hey, that disposable lighter is not bad. I heard it only costs one silver dollar in China, but if we can get it in China, we can definitely double the profit..."
"Kuroda, stop shooting. It makes us talk so loudly. This gesture is enough."
…
The little devil opposite was doing errands and dreaming about getting rich during the day. Zhang Dali and the others looked at him in confusion, but they couldn't help but have doubts: The little devil was muttering something mysterious here, was he trying to attract our attention and cover other people? The troops should land from other places. As soon as he thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. Zhang Dali did not dare to be careless and immediately called Shan Renxiong to report the situation and expressed his guess.
Shan Renxiong didn't see it with his own eyes, and he couldn't make a correct judgment. He thought it was reasonable, so he called General Yun Dian and Qiu Hongsheng and others, asking them to strengthen their lookout, and they must not let the little Japanese take advantage of it.
Three armored regiments moved closer to Dongshan Ridge one after another. Before Bian Jingdao and the others returned, they all rushed to Dongshan Ridge and immediately began to set up air defense positions with Dongshan Ridge as the center.
At around three o'clock, the exhausted Bian Jingdao and others came back. The deserters could not be caught, and they could not even find any clues left by him. This made Bian Jingdao feel a little embarrassed. When reporting to Ouyang Yun, he said shyly: "Commander-in-Chief, I'm so sorry, we couldn't bring the person back."
Ouyang Yun was not surprised by this. Hainan's mountainous terrain was very conducive to the Tibetans, and the Xuebing Army lacked weapons that could be tracked. He comforted Bian Jingdao and asked him to take his brothers down to rest and wait for Bian Jingdao. After leaving, he said to Chen Shichang: "When I go back to Guangzhou this time, it seems that I have to build a military dog unit."
Chen Shichang was not in the mood to pay attention to this issue. All he could think about now was how to ensure Ouyang Yun's safety. In his opinion, the Japanese army's previous highly targeted bombings had made it clear that the Japanese not only knew the fact that the Commander-in-Chief was in Hainan , and targeted actions have been taken. As a senior member of the Soldiers Committee, he is more aware of Ouyang Yun's status in the minds of the students. He knows that if Ouyang Yun does anything good, the students will be leaderless. , a state of disintegration. Such a scene was really not what he wanted to see, so he could not help but have lingering fears about the bombing, and he became more determined to persuade Ouyang Yun to leave, "Commander-in-Chief, I think this issue can be put aside. Let's go to the southwest. Well, the combined fleet's fleet has landed southwest of Qiong, and there is no big battle left to fight on the eastern front. It's a waste of resources for the five thousand of us to stay here."
This was not the first time that Ouyang Yun had heard of this. He once again refused to comment. He was the one who brought Chen Shichang out. How could the former's little care hide it from him? Because the road conditions were not good, it would take at least one day to get from Dongshanling to Changjiang. It was a long journey, and with this day as a buffer, the Japanese could not determine his position. He said to Chen Shichang: "We came to Hainan just to watch the war, not to participate in it. Shichang, as a spectator, you must have the consciousness of being a spectator." , you have to learn this from me."
Chen Shichang smiled bitterly: "But Commander-in-Chief, because of your presence, Commander Shan has transferred all the air defense troops from the eastern front. This has already affected Commander Shan's layout."
Ouyang Yun pretended to be stupid, as if he just knew about this. He said, "Yeah, well, I'll call Shan Renxiong and ask him to transfer these three armored regiments."
At this moment, the single hero was in a daze in front of a battle report. The three anti-aircraft regiments were gone. This made it difficult for him to accept for a while. However, a situation mentioned in the telegram made him begin to doubt the true intentions of the Japanese. Okay, where is their main attack direction?
The landing battle at Hachisho Port finally began. As expected by Yamamoto Isoroku, the landing troops encountered no resistance at all.
The Ishii Brigade was the first to land ashore. They were determined to show the courage of their unit to the cowards of the Osaka Division. Under the command of Ishii, the soldiers performed particularly bravely. They took over the suspicious garrison stronghold with a single charge. After capturing the townhouses that had become ruins, Ishii ordered his men to launch defenses on the spot. At the same time, he had people run to a rock near the sea to taunt the Komuro brigade: "Army warriors, come up, the Chinese have been captured. We beat them away." He then said, "Don't take anything else with you. All the Chinese people have fled, and your small commodities should have no sales targets."
There is a source for this. A soldier from the Ishii Battalion accidentally discovered that some soldiers from the Komuro Battalion were actually carrying baggage with the word "Vendor" written on it. Then he remembered that the Osaka Division also had the title of "Vendor Division", so he went to Ishii's
