The North Station is located in the west of the suburbs of Shanghai. Stationed at the North Station is the 88th Division of the Ninth Group Army of the National Revolutionary Army. This is one of the few German weapons divisions in the Nationalist Army. It is known as the elite of the Central Army.
Weapons and equipment are also the best in the [ ] sequence.
Since General Huang Meixing, the commander of the 264th Brigade, was martyred by the 88th Division, Zhang Zhizhong transferred them to North Station for garrison. Division Commander Sun Yuanliang received a call from Zhang Zhizhong at noon today and learned that the 102nd Division from Chahar
After coming to change defenses with his own unit, I was full of expectations for this unit.
In the evening, when the troops were preparing to eat, the guards came to report that the 102nd Division had arrived. Sun Yuanliang hurried to the intersection to greet them.
From a distance, he heard bursts of loud singing, and a neat team was walking towards his defense area with high morale. After a while, Sun Yuanlang saw the two officers walking at the front walking in front of him.
He saluted with a bang.
"Hello, sir, Wang Changqing, commander of the 6th Regiment of the 102nd Division of the 7th War Zone, and deputy commander Zheng Xiaoyou have been ordered to come to change defenses. Please give me your instructions."
Sun Yuanliang also returned the gift, and then looked at the two officers in front of him. Both of them were wearing colorful combat uniforms that were obviously deliberately printed and dyed, and wore German-style steel helmets on their heads. They were wearing colonels and lieutenant colonels respectively.
The only difference between military ranks and [] is that their military ranks are pinned on their shoulders, not on their collars like [].
"Hello, welcome to Shanghai." Sun Yuanliang said with a smile, "Has your master arrived yet?"
"The master will be here in a moment, please wait a moment."
After a while, Hu Lian came to the front of the team in a jeep. Sun Yuanliang walked up to him with a smile and greeted Hu Lian warmly.
It stands to reason that Hu Lian, a junior student in the fourth period of Huangpu, should maintain the necessary respect for Sun Yuanliang, a senior in the first period. However, Hu Lian only said a faint hello to Sun Yuanliang and proposed to change defense immediately, without showing any sign of any kind.
The respect that junior students should have for their seniors.
Speaking of Sun Yuanliang, Hu Lian felt extremely contemptuous of him.
Although this gentleman graduated from the first class of Huangpu, he was different from most of the first class of Huangpu who were able to fight. Sun Yuanliang was famous for his greed for life, fear of death, lust and greed for money. He escaped from battle during the Northern Expedition and repeatedly left the army without permission.
Due to his experience of escaping alone, people gave him the nickname "Flying General", mocking him for not being ashamed of escaping, but for being proud of it. Later, someone gave him a gift: Although success is uncertain, escaping is determined. This shows that he is a gentleman.
Taste.
Although Sun Yuanliang received a cold reception from Hu Lian, a junior, he didn't take it seriously. As long as he could leave this hellish place, it didn't matter if he was treated coldly.
One was intentional and the other intentional. After a period of intense work, the 102nd Division quickly completed the defense change with the 88th Division. Sun Yuanliang quickly disappeared from everyone's sight with the 88th Division. Looking at Sun Yuanliang's hurry
From behind, Hu Lian softly "hummed" and stopped talking.
After the troops entered the position, Hu Lian ignored fatigue and ordered the troops to rebuild the fortifications overnight. It was not until dark that the fortifications were completed.
When it was daylight, the Japanese reconnaissance aircraft began to appear in front of the 102nd Division's position. There were also bursts of gunfire nearby, which was the Japanese naval gun bombarding the nearby positions.
.
Two Japanese reconnaissance planes flew unscrupulously at low altitudes over the North Station, which shocked and angered the soldiers on the ground. The commander of the air defense regiment called and asked to fire, but Hu Lian refused.
Hu Lian knew that there were countless Japanese spies watching him near the North Station, and it was not worth it to fire rashly to expose the location of the air defense position for the sake of two reconnaissance planes.
At this time, his mind couldn't help but think of what Su Tong had told him before leaving, Boyu, the battle in Shanghai is different from our previous battles. What you will face during this trip will be Japan's powerful joint attack by land, sea and air. The attack is fierce.
The extent is beyond your imagination, and the assistance we can give you is extremely limited. So when you arrive in Shanghai, you must think twice before making any decision. The fate of the 102nd Division is in your hands.
Inside.
At 11 o'clock in the morning, the staff reported that the 15th Aviation Regiment of the 4th Air Division of the Chahar Aviation Corps had officially stationed at Wuxi Airport and could already provide air support to the 102nd Division.
"Great." Hu Lian slammed the table. Throughout the morning, he watched the Japanese reconnaissance planes circling in front of his position unscrupulously to conduct reconnaissance and take pictures. This made the entire 102nd Division hold their breath. Hu Lian
Several times I couldn't help but order the anti-aircraft regiment to open fire, but in the end I held back.
"Send a report to the 15th Flying Group, request air support, and clear the flies on our heads."
"Buzz buzz"
About twenty minutes later, the sound of engines familiar to the soldiers came from the head of the 102nd Division. After a while, two shiny silver P47 fighters with a round shape rushed out from the clouds. They were still heading towards
The two Type 92 carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft hovering on the Zero-2 Division position dived down.
"Da da da da"
In less than a blink of an eye, two Japanese reconnaissance planes were blown up in mid-air. After shooting down the enemy planes, the two P47s also circled at low altitude on our position and made several tumbling movements, which aroused the confusion of the officers and soldiers on the position.
They cheered.
This made Hu Lian, who had been observing them in the forward command post, smile, thinking that these bastards had learned to improve their morale.
The news that the Japanese army had lost two carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft quickly reached Matsui Iwane's ears.
"Where were the two reconnaissance planes of the Nani Empire shot down?" Matsui Iwane asked with a serious expression, staring at the intelligence officer in front of him.
"Your Excellency, Commander, this is North Station." The intelligence officer pointed to a certain location on the combat diagram hanging on the wall.
"Baga, this is the original defense area of the Eighty-Eighth China Division. The Empire has not gone to trouble him yet. How dare he shoot down the Empire's plane?" Matsui Iwane was a little shocked. In his opinion, the Imperial Army did not take the initiative to attack the Eighty-eighth Division.
Sun Yuanliang was already burning incense at the eighth division's defense line. How dare he take the initiative to contact the air force to shoot down the imperial plane?
"Your Excellency, Commander, according to the report sent back by the reconnaissance plane this morning, the troops stationed in this defense area are estimated to have changed their defenses, because this position has been re-consolidated, and the style of the position construction is obviously different from that of the previous China Army.
." The intelligence officer reported the truth.
"The 102nd Division must have just arrived at the 102nd Division yesterday." Matsui Iwane stood up suddenly and shouted loudly, "Only Chahar's troops dare to be so unscrupulous and have no regard for the empire's aircraft and naval guns.
Attacking Imperial aircraft."
I have to say that Matsui Iwane's judgment was very good, and he guessed the truth at once.
"Yoshi, since we know the location of the 102nd Division, let's meet this ace army." Matsui Iwane slowly walked a few steps in the office with his hands behind his back, then stopped and ordered: "Order,
The Taiwan Chongteng Detachment began to attack the North Station at noon this day, and the 16th Division was on standby behind, waiting for orders before attacking."
"Hi"
After giving the order, Matsui Iwane walked out of the office and came to the deck, looking at the looming land ahead. He smiled evilly and murmured: "Are you China's ace army? Let me see how powerful you are."
At 12 o'clock in the afternoon, the Chongteng detachment came from Taiwan and began to attack the North Station held by the 102nd Division.
The soldiers of the Chongteng detachment were all recruited in Taiwan, and only some of the officers were Japanese. However, after years of brainwashing and cruel training by the Japanese, their combat effectiveness was no less than that of ordinary Japanese divisions.
The recognition level is also very high, and they never show mercy when slaughtering their own compatriots.
But despite this, in the eyes of the Japanese generals, this unit is still a cannon fodder unit that can be consumed first, and its weapons and equipment are also the worst in the Japanese army's order of battle.
As soon as the battle began, twelve Japanese Type 88 bombers taking off from the Red Sincerity aircraft carrier, under the cover of eight Kawasaki Type 92 fighter jets, rushed towards the North Station.
The 102nd Division did not show any weakness and immediately connected to the channel of the 15th Flying Regiment to call for air support. After a while, fourteen P47s rushed over the North Station to fight with the Japanese aircraft.
As soon as the two sides fought, they were immediately surprised. The 15th Regiment was surprised that the quality of the Japanese naval aviation was much higher than that of their army aviation, and the Japanese were also surprised by the opponent's ferocious fighting style and
This kind of fighter plane has never been seen before. The opponent made full use of the advantages of its own fighter planes. They formed a group of two planes, hit and leave, and never hesitated to fight.
As soon as the two sides fought, two Japanese Type 92 fighters were shot down by P47s diving in the airspace, but Chahar's fighters suffered no casualties.
The Chahar fighter planes that succeeded in one strike immediately separated six fighters from the Japanese planes to tangle with each other, and the remaining eight fighters rushed towards the Japanese Type 88 bombers.
"Da da da"
Japanese planes continued to disintegrate and explode in mid-air, which stunned the soldiers of the Chongteng detachment who were preparing to launch an attack.
When did China's planes become so capable? In less than a moment, nearly half of the Japanese bombers were lost, and the rest were chased around by China's fighters like ducks. In a hurry, Japan said
In order to reduce its own load, the plane threw the bombs it carried and ran back. Several bombs were thrown on the head of the Chongteng detachment, which was about to launch an attack, causing hundreds of casualties. The officer of the Chongteng detachment was so angry that he cursed loudly.
Endless.
In this way, in the first battle between Chahar and the Japanese naval aviation, the Japanese lost seven bombers and three fighter jets, while the Chahar side ended this short air battle with a slight injury to one.
"Baga, they are indeed Chahar's troops. Even their aviation is so powerful. It seems that we have made some adjustments to our combat deployment." Matsui Iwane frowned after receiving the report.
