Just when Zeng Jiachu led the Fifth Division to fight bloody battles in front of the Japanese city defense fortification east of Nanchang City, on the evening of May 4, Chen Anbao led the 237th Regiment of the 79th Division and the main force of the 26th Division.
Crossing the Fu River in Rengang.
The Fifth Division crossed the river on the evening of the 3rd and launched an attack on Nanchang on the 4th. However, due to the raging Japanese aviation forces, the troops could not cross the river during the day, and could only rely on ferries to cross the river at night. Moreover, it was not only crossing the Fu River, but also easy to deal with by the Japanese army.
On the broken pontoon bridge, the troops themselves do not have heavy artillery, chariots and other equipment, which can pass quickly. However, there are no pontoon bridges in the Fuhe tributaries west of the Fuhe River, so they can only ferry with boats. In this way, the input is restricted.
The forces on the battlefield. This is the asymmetry of the combat between the two armies of China and Japan. If the Chinese team has air supremacy and enough engineers, they will build more floating bridges, the 26th Division, the 5th Division and the 79th Division 237th Regiment
Cross the river together and fight towards Nanchang City together, the situation may change. Now it has become a standard tactic for adding fuel to the city. The Japanese army defending the city can completely repel the fifth division first and then face the later 26th division.
At this time, our army had actually missed the opportunity to capture Nanchang and lost the meaning of urgently launching an attack. However, as a soldier, obeying orders is a duty. The upper peak did not issue an order to stop the attack, and even the sea of swords and fires in front of it had to pounce upwards.
.
In the early morning of May 5, after the first batch of crossing the river troops of the 26th Division crossed the Fuhe tributary, Dunto encountered the Japanese search guard forces.
Wang Kejun, the commander of the 78th Brigade, was from Yuechi, Guang'an, Sichuan Province. He was a typical martial artsman. He was originally from Yang Sen's army. Later, Wang Kejun's immediate superior, Guo Rudong, also known as the cousin of the famous Guo Rugui, split from Yang Sen.
After throwing himself into the arms of the Central Committee, Wang Kejun became the Central Army and also studied at the sixth higher education class of the Central Military Academy.
Wang Kejun's goal is Nanchang City. How can the Japanese block the way?
What a Wang Kejun, who gathered the machine guns of the entire brigade together, fucked a Czech light machine gun himself and took the lead, and beat the Japanese army a little hard. The dense bullets were poured onto the Japanese positions, making the Japanese unable to raise their heads at all. Brother,
As soon as we saw that we suppressed the Japanese firepower, we rushed straight online like a sea of storms, and the grenades were quickly thrown into the Japanese head. It was night, and the Japanese couldn't figure out how many troops the Chinese team had, but they were actually going as if they were in a tide.
Later retreated.
Wang Kejun put away the machine gun and laughed: "The Japanese are also cowards who bully the weak and are afraid of the strong!"
After repelling the infantry brigade blocked by the Japanese, Wang Kejun led the 78th Brigade to travel all the way, crossing Yaohu, and heading straight to the old Japanese airport.
The Japanese Airport was attacked by Duan Langru and his brothers from the 79th Division a few days ago. Finally, the 101st Division defeated the Zhong*** Team and the airport was restored. The Japanese could never dream of the Chinese Team.
He made a comeback and aimed at them again.
At 5:15 a.m., Wang Kejun led the 78th Brigade to the old airport.
Looking at the Japanese planes on the airport apron, Wang Kejun was overjoyed and ordered the troops to divide into several groups, break through the Japanese guard positions, rush directly to the airport, and blow up the Japanese planes that could bomb the bombs.
When the Japanese airport guards saw the Chinese *** team attacking in large numbers, they asked for help from the 101st Division in the city while resisting desperately. The battle alarm was also sounded at the airport, and the pilots rushed to the apron, and soon the motor was on the airport.
Qiming, the Japanese plane is ready to take off urgently.
When Wang Kejun saw that the Japanese police were about to leave, he was anxious and ordered the charge to blow. The entire brigade commander came to the battle, everyone rushed into the airport, and exploded the enemy planes.
After all, the Japanese guards were limited in number, and their troops were scattered on the positions around the airport. The firepower of each position seemed thin, and they were suddenly attacked without warning and caught off guard. What's more, the 101st Division of the Japanese Army
It is a fourth-rate unit, and the soldiers are all reserve personnel in their thirties, and they are the first to ruin the people. However, their fighting will is far from the security division, and they are even more incomparable to the permanent division. This is a sight.
The team was about to break through the position, so they had to fight and retreat, and the position was broken through by the 78th Brigade.
When the 78th Brigade rushed into the airport, most of the Japanese planes had already taken off, leaving only three Japanese planes that were not enough to take off. The brothers rushed over, waved the butt stocks, and the grenades fucked.
Seeing that Wang Kejun captured the Japanese airport, he immediately sent the 155th Regiment to capture the main station of the bus. The remaining troops quickly built fortifications and prepared to deal with the Japanese counterattack.
The 78th Brigade did fight against the Japanese, because during the day Zeng Jiachu led the Fifth Division to attack for a while, and pushed the Japanese outside the city into the city, and were finally repelled by the Japanese. The Japanese thought they were in the middle*
The ** team was going to fight in the east of the city. Unexpectedly, the 78th Brigade turned to the airport and fired in the direction of the station.
When the 78th Brigade captured the bus terminal, it was already dawn. Lieutenant General Saito Yaheita, the commander of the 101st Division, was furious after receiving the report of the loss of the airport and bus terminals. He immediately ordered the Chief of Staff Colonel Konomichio to command the main force of the division.
The 101st Brigade, the 101st Field Artillery Regiment and the reinforcements of the Marine Corps are attacking the *** team, and must wipe out the siege *** team.
The Japanese army not only had a field artillery, each brigade, and a brigade also had infantry artillery, rapid-fire artillery, squadrons, and grenades, with much more powerful firepower than the 78th Brigade. In addition, the Japanese bomber squadron came to reinforce,
For a time, the positions of the airport, bus terminal and even the Fifth Division in the east gate were bombarded and bombed wildly. Immediately afterwards, Japanese infantry, guided by tanks and armored vehicles, began a large-scale counterattack, with the focus of the attack being the 78th Brigade.
Captured airports and train stations.
Wang Kejun's mission was to attack Nanchang City. Therefore, while sending a message to Liu Yuqing, the commander of the 26th Division, requesting emergency reinforcements, he commanded the troops to fight to the death and used his flesh and blood to resist the Japanese counterattack.
Chen Anbao and Liu Yuqing led the 79th Division's King's Regiment, the 237th Regiment and the 26th Division's 76th Brigade of Zhou Zhiqun and the 26th Division, to arrive at the tributary west of Fuhe in the middle of the night on May 4. Because there were too few ferries and avoiding enemy planes' reconnaissance bombing.
The cruising was not completed until 11 a.m. on the 5th. When Wang Kejun asked for reinforcements, Chen Anguo and the others were still a long way from the battlefield.
The Japanese planes were scattering bombs and cannons were crazily bombarding. The only thing that makes people feel relieved is that the wind direction is wrong and the Japanese cannot send poison gas. However, even the 76th Brigade could not bear it anymore. If you don't retreat, don't say it.
After occupying Nanchang City, I am afraid that all the brothers will die here. Wang Kejun had to order the troops to retreat and move towards Liantang.
After the 78th Brigade retreated, the Japanese army turned to Zeng Jiachu's Fifth Division.
Zeng Jiachu led the fifth division to fight fiercely with the enemy on May 4th until now, and the eyes of the reinforcements were almost blind. When the 78th Brigade started, Zeng Jiachu commanded his troops to launch an attack on the Japanese city defense fortifications again, hoping that
Can break through the Japanese defense line and rush into Nanchang City.
After the Japanese army repelled the Fifth Division yesterday, they did not pursue the victory. The main reason is that the Fifth Division is a native army in Nanchang. They are too familiar with the rivers, lakes, small ditches, and hills here, and are very good at using the terrain to hide themselves.
When the Japanese reinforcements came, the Fifth Division of the Preparatory Division had lost its trace. Now that the Fifth Division of the Preparatory Division has made a comeback, the Japanese are not polite. They rely on the city defense fortifications to fight against the Fifth Division, and Japanese planes are also hovering back and forth, bombing and strafing wildly.
Zeng Jiachu felt so angry! The battle was so fucking cowardly. From beginning to end, there was no good coordination between the troops. When the 79th Division attacked Nanchang Station and the airport, its plainclothes regiment opened fire in the city.
How passive the Japanese were. As a result, there was no reinforcement behind the 79th Division, and they were driven out by the Japanese. It was still the same now. After fighting for a day, the 78th Brigade arrived. The reinforcement behind the 78th Brigade was still there.
I'm afraid we can only arrive at night dozens of miles away. The most angered were the troops west of the Ganjiang River, the First Army, the 19th Army, and the 74th Army, who could not even capture the Ganjiang River! Such a large battle action,
Hundreds of thousands of troops were actually not enough to pull the donkey! In the end, Duan Langru, who was the first to attack Nanchang City, shot him to send a dead ghost to the Nanyue Heroes Temple, which had not yet been built!
Zeng Jiachu didn't have time to think about it anymore, because of the airport and the gunshots from the bus station moved south. Needless to say, the 78th Brigade had to retreat after throwing away the remains of the brothers in the area.
Not long after, the Japanese field artillery corps turned to the Fifth Division. When the shells fell, Zeng Jiachu knew that the Japanese army had begun to counterattack him. He strictly ordered all troops to shrink, establish defense lines, and resolutely repel the Japanese counterattack.
From May 4th to the present, the fifth division suffered a lot of casualties. However, Zeng Jiachu was confident that although his brothers were from security teams, they had undergone rigorous training and fought to defend their hometown and defeated the young people.
The Japanese attack is fine.
Zeng Jiachu underestimated the Japanese army's determination.
The hot air balloon had already risen high, and Japanese artillery observers sat on it, constantly reporting data, guiding the artillery to carry out precise strikes on the Fifth Division.
The shells fell one by one. Zeng Jiachu clearly saw in the telescope that a brother had just started a machine gun and fired a round of fire. His head was cut off by the shrapnel of the Japanese army and he rolled around on the position.
As soon as the shelling stopped, the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles guided the infantry to attack. This time, the Japanese army made up their minds and came out in full swing. The Marine Corps was in the east, and the 101st Brigade troops were divided into two routes, one route from west to east.
The Japanese planes were circling unscrupulously over the bottom of the Fifth Division, and wherever there was a Chinese team to resist, they would throw bombs and fire.
Although Zeng Jiachu kept sending communication soldiers to send orders to various troops and firmly resisted, the position was still broken by the Japanese. Seeing that it was delayed, the entire division would be made by the Japanese army. Zeng Jiachu looked at Nanchang City and sighed.
With a sound, the troops were ordered to shrink quickly, alternately cover, and retreat to the Yaohu line.
Although the 5th Division and the 78th Brigade suffered great losses, they arrived in Nanchang and retreated calmly. The follow-up troops led by Chen Anguo and Liu Yuqing were not as lucky as this, and the tragedy happened in the subsequent battle.
At 11 a.m. on the 5th, after Chen Anbao and Liu Yuqing led their follow-up troops across the Fuhe tributary, they immediately ordered the troops to run from the tortuous track and field track between the enemy strongholds and prepare to advance from the west of the railway to Nanchang.
At around 2 pm on the 5th, the troops arrived at Shawozhang Village by road and railway. The vanguard of the vanguard was attacked by the enemy and was soon stuck by the enemy in the highlands northwest of Tongshu Temple. At the same time, behind the army and division headquarters
The communication company, the baggage platoon, Wang and Xie regiments were also cut off by Gao Fang's enemies, and the situation suddenly became serious.
At this time, let alone contact Zeng Jiachu's Fifth Division and Wang Kejun's 78th Brigade, even the Xie regiment of the 76th Brigade and the 237th Regiment of the 79th Division were unable to contact him. He could only hear him around him
It's gunshot.
Chen Anbao judged that the attack on the Zhou regiment should not be the main force of the Japanese army. Therefore, he made a quick decision and ordered the Zhou regiment to quickly defeat the frontal enemy, support the 237th Regiment and the 153th Regiment Xie regiment, restore contacts between the various troops, and defeat Gao Fang together.
enemy.
At 4:30, because the fortifications of the enemy's strong bases were strong, the two mountain artillery companies under the command of the 29th Army were still unknown. The 26th Division and the 237th Regiment of the 79th Division did not have heavy artillery.
The enemy's stronghold had no attack methods, resulting in no progress in the battle ahead and behind. The troops were stalemate with the enemy at Xiazhuang, Wuzhuang, Shawozhang Village, and Shanliyao and Longli Zhang at the north end of Gaofang.
This location is no more than 10 miles from Liantang in the north and about 20 miles from Xiangtang in the south, and they are all in a straight line. However, at this time, the communication level of *** was too poor, and Chen Anbao was given strict orders, so it is important to
On May 5, Nanchang was captured, so Chen Anguo did not order the troops to turn around and go south to join the 16th Division and 102nd Division troops on the Xiangtang line to attack the Japanese troops near Xiangtang. Instead, he continued to order the troops to move closer to each other, establish contact and repel
The Japanese army then attacked Nanchang.
If Chen Anbao could order the troops to retreat at this time, there would be no subsequent tragedy. However, Chen Anbao was determined to attack Nanchang City and complete the tasks assigned by the Chairman. He also did not know that the Japanese troops in Nanchang City had reached 15,000.
It is impossible to attack. I don't know that the troops in the west of Ganjiang River have only Lu Daoyuan's new 11th Division advanced bravely in Fengxin, Jing'an and Anyi. The main force ignored the orders of commanders at all levels, stopped patrolling, and encountered the enemy
That is, excavating and defending themselves, and losing all the honors that the Yunnan Army earned in the Battle of Xuzhou. He Ping of the 16th Division focused on attacking Shatanbu. These two troops responsible for the task of cutting off the Nanxun line, and now the company
The border of the Nanxun Line has not been touched yet! Although the 30th Army sent a unit to attack the Japanese auxiliary ferry of Zhang Gongdu, the main force did not cut off the Japanese transportation between De'an and Nanchang. In this way, the number of Nanchang areas was in
Ten thousand Japanese troops can be freely mobilized in the interior and concentrate their strength in any direction. Chen Anguo also thought that our army used four armies plus an ace 74th Army, which had an absolute advantage in the military strength. The Japanese army must be passively defended, so how could they know the Japanese army
After repelling the Fifth Division and the 78th Brigade, the 101th Division tried its best to counterattack the follow-up troops led by Chen Anbao. The situation was already very dangerous.
