The border between China and North Korea is mainly divided by the Yalu River, with a length of more than 1,298 kilometers. Facing such a wide front, the Chinese army divided into three directions to break through. A total of one division and one duli brigade on the North Road set out from Linjiang to attack Dalizi.
, and the middle line consists of an infantry division and a motorized infantry brigade, starting from Ji'an and breaking through Manpu defended by the North Korean servant army. There is no doubt that these two armies are only used for containment.
After breaking through the Yalu River, the two armies advanced deep into North Korea and met at the river boundary. The entire attack area was the northern mountainous area of North Korea. These areas were sparsely populated and Japan's rule in these areas was relatively weak. Jin Jiu and them
His subordinates also moved with the Central Army.
After entering North Korea, Jin Jiu and others will let go of their hands to destroy Japan's colonial order, then expand their ranks, establish a true government, and then use this government to call on all Koreans to rise up against Japan. Of course,
The role that these two route armies and Jin Jiu can play is only to contain them.
The main direction of the real attack is Sinuiju, which is China's southern line. Sinuiju and China's Dandong City are across the river. It is an important port for trade between North Korea and China. Moreover, the area around Sinuiju has a flat terrain and is also an important production area for North Korea.
There are trains from Sinuiju that can go directly to Pyongyang, the military center of North Korea. This is definitely a battleground for military strategists, and both China and Japan have invested all their troops.
China's most elite First Armored Division was sent here to serve as the main offensive mission. As the commander of this most powerful armored division, Lu Han was also very high-spirited at this time. China has passed the army expansion plan and will form four more
The number of new armored divisions in each division must reach an astonishing number of 336 tanks. This establishment is definitely the first of its kind in the Far East. There is no such lavish armored division in the world so far.
.
There is no doubt that the newly formed armored division will become the elite among the elite of the Chinese Army. Many Sichuan generals are closely eyeing this position. Even Long Yun is tempted to be able to command such a tank division.
It is definitely more enjoyable than being an army commander, but it still fell to Lu Han in the end. At present, China has only completed one division, and the other three divisions are still on paper, just like the other three divisions in the group army this time.
An armored division only has 200 tanks. Of course, Lu Han achieved all of this with his outstanding performance.
Starting from northern Burma, we fought all the way to Nerchinsk, which is from the southernmost point to the northernmost point of China. However, no one can rest on their achievements. Only by continuous progress can we gain the respect of everyone. This time we attacked North Korea.
It is what all soldiers dream of.
Everyone regards Japan as the most important and most vicious enemy at present. The rise of Japan in modern times is entirely on the shoulders of China. Japan has done too many evil things to China. Everyone knows that there must be
On the day of reckoning, this is the best opportunity for military personnel to make contributions. If they can make contributions, it will definitely be something that will go down in history.
After Lu Han got this opportunity, he was so excited that he stayed up all night, thinking repeatedly about how to attack Sinuiju. Originally, in 1911, Japan built a Yalu River Bridge to connect Sinuiju and Dandong. In fact, Japan
This invasion of Northeast China was a land passage, mainly a railway bridge.
Since China and Japan declared war, this bridge connecting the two sides of the Yangtze River has become extremely important. It is a strategic key point that both countries must seize. Japan initially prepared to attack China through here. However, since the Chinese Air Force firmly controls the air,
The Japanese knew that they had no chance to kill them, so they simply blew up the Yalu River Bridge to prevent China from using the bridge to attack Japan.
However, due to time constraints, the Japanese only blew up the middle of the bridge, leaving the bridge piers in the river. This time, after preparing for the artillery fire, Lu Han ordered the engineering troops to quickly build the bridge across the Yalu River.
The engineers used the remaining bridge piers to bundle the ships that had been prepared side by side, and then fixed them on the bridge piers. In this way, a stable road appeared. Although it could not pass tanks of more than fifteen tons, it was used to
Tanks and armored vehicles weighing more than ten tons were enough. Soon Chinese tanks passed through this road and rushed to the other side. Of course, the Japanese themselves were fully prepared.
Intensive firepower continued to pour into the river. Even with the cover of the air force and artillery, more than a hundred engineers died while building the pontoon bridge. Their bodies flowed into the sea with the rolling river water, but their sacrifices were still very significant.
Valuable, Chinese armored forces finally set foot on North Korean soil.
There was a loophole in Japan's river bank defense line. The Chinese tanks on the other side of the river quickly took advantage of their speed and rushed towards Japan's defense line. It was like cutting tofu with a sharp knife, and soon opened a gap, and China's follow-up troops
More and more, finally forming a solid foothold.
Japan has been operating in North Korea for many years, especially after China became stronger, and the defense line of the Yalu River has been reinforced several times, with a depth of dozens of kilometers. This is why Japan has absorbed the lessons of World War I and worked hard to make the defense line deeper.
It is also stronger. I have to say that once the Japs go crazy, it is indeed very scary. The entire Yalu River defense line is not so much made of reinforced concrete as it is built with the lives of Koreans.
In order to build this defense line, more than 150,000 sticks died here, but it did have an effect. Although the Chinese tanks occupied a foothold, it was too difficult to easily break through the opponent's defense line. Both sides
Fell into a bitter struggle.
Qiao Yu is now in Zhong Nan Hai. All members of the Chinese Supreme Command have gathered together. Everyone is anxiously waiting for the situation on the front line. When they heard that China had successfully crossed the Yalu River, everyone had a smile on their faces.
, as long as we can break through the Yalu River and capture Pyongyang, it will be no problem.
However, Jiang Baili's next words reminded everyone who was a little too optimistic.
"Everyone, Japan has established a depth defense of forty kilometers along the river, and their troops are very strong. We have only occupied a few footholds now, and we are far from the time to successfully break through Japan's defense line!"
"Brother Baili, I still believe in our soldiers, and Lu Han is also a tiger general. It is possible to break through the Yalu River defense line. However, I also want to remind everyone that this war will not end soon. Although Japan is a
It is an island country, but it industrialized decades earlier than China. The country has stronger mobilization capabilities and a higher quality of the people. Moreover, they have maritime advantages and can be supplemented by foreign countries. In this way, their combat power is also amazing. We must do
Be prepared for a protracted war!"
"President, haven't the great powers declared strict neutrality? Why are there still supplies flowing into Japan?" Jiang Yonggui asked from the side.
"Abiding by the rules is not a great power. Their neutrality is just an excuse. Who can have trouble with money? The United States is selling a large amount of oil and scrap steel to Japan. The price at this time is a lot higher than usual.
More than twice as much, how can those capitalists sit still in the face of such huge profits? Besides, haven’t the great powers also sent us a lot of supplies through the South China Sea?”
Qiao Yu is right, this kind of war is a good time for the great powers to make money on both sides. The great powers will never become good babies. Today's great powers are like the five hooligans of later generations. Who should I be afraid of if I am a hooligan?
Although China has a vast territory and abundant resources, it cannot completely rely on imports. For example, rubber, the most important strategic material, must be imported from Southeast Asia. Although China has established a rubber plantation in Hainan, it cannot compare with Southeast Asia in terms of output and quality.
In addition, China also needs copper, tin and other ores, which happen to be abundant in Southeast Asia and other places. Although Britain and France have old enmity with China, they are not willing to see China fall and Asia become a Japanese world.
What I hope is that the war in Asia will be like the First World War, lasting for several years and turning the two hated yellow countries into ruins. Only in this way can the wishes of the great powers be fulfilled.
"President, since Japan can get supplies from the great powers, we might as well eliminate all these supplies and completely starve the island country to death. In this way, Japan will have no choice but to admit defeat!"
Jiang Baili is preparing to use submarine power. China has always regarded submarines as the only choice for dealing with island countries, and it is also China's most important trump card. There are already many submarine activities in the waters between China and Japan. China
Instead of rushing for these submarines to launch an attack, they first figured out the characteristics of Japan's route and figured out issues such as hydrology and ocean currents. After all, submarines can launch attacks very secretly.
However, the current speed of submarines is still very slow and their self-protection capabilities are insufficient. Once discovered by the opponent's warships, they may be sunk. Therefore, it is necessary to find a way out first, and Japan's radio stations must also be vigilant. However,
More than ten days have passed since the declaration of war, and now the time is ripe for a large-scale attack.
At this time, the Japanese combined fleet has concentrated its main forces in Okinawa and Keelung, Taiwan. Relying on these two bases, it has firmly blocked the sea access to eastern China, and then the Japanese have used maritime power to continuously disrupt China's offshore routes.
, trying to cut off the sea connections between north and south China.
The Chinese navy is also tit for tat. It is mainly deployed in the coastal area from Quanzhou to Zhoushan to firmly guard China's coastline. All Chinese navies have entered a state of war, ready to deal with the outbreak of a maritime war at any time. Everyone knows that this day will not happen
Too far.
Although China's latest warship has not yet been completed, China is still able to compete with its three existing aircraft carriers and underwater forces. Especially Cheng Hailiang, who has won the victory, is full of confidence at this time. He is working with his two friends Wu Kaijie and Tang
Lin relaxing together drinking tea.
Wu Kaijie was originally one of China's earliest aircraft carrier pilots and the most skilled. However, he served on the Qidian and missed the valuable opportunity for naval aviation to sink an enemy ship for the first time. This has made him very upset these days.
"Old Wu, let me tell you, you don't have to worry. With so many warships in Japan, don't we still have a chance to make a contribution? And only after experiencing the war this time did I truly understand the magnitude of the aircraft attack.
The advantage is that you have a commanding position and have an unobstructed view. No matter how powerful the warship is, there will always be flaws. As long as you catch it and drop a bomb, any warship will be seriously injured!"
Wu Kaijie let out a sigh of relief, "Lao Cheng, let's have a competition to see who can sink more Japanese warships and have greater tonnage. Let's bet on a dog meat hotpot!"
While he was talking, someone suddenly sent a telegram, which was given to Tang Lin. Tang Lin was the captain of the major boat. In fact, he had already been preparing to make contributions in the vast blue waves. After receiving the telegram, he immediately ran towards the military port.
