The Wuhan Battle of unprecedented scale began on August 27, 1938.
In this battle, China and Japan gathered a total of more than 1.3 million troops and launched a fierce collision over thousands of square kilometers of land.
Since mid-June, the Japanese army has begun peripheral operations. In the past two months of peripheral operations, the Japanese army paid a heavy price, with more than 50,000 casualties. The 106th Division of the Japanese Eleventh Army, July 2
On the 18th, we were about to attack southwest. On that day, several times the Chinese Fourth Army was blocked by Ma'anshan and the Jinjiangshan line.
On the 8th, the 106th Division launched another large-scale attack. 50,000 to 60,000 Chinese and Japanese troops fought for seven days and seven nights in this area. On August 4th, the 106th Division attacked the front line of the main position of the Chinese garrison.
, on August 5, the Chinese defenders organized a large-scale counterattack and killed more than a thousand enemies. On August 6, the enemy's 106th Division left another 300 corpses.
Seeing the heavy casualties of the 106th Division, the commander of the Japanese Eleventh Army, Okamura Ningji, was forced to order the 106th Division to stop the attack and garrison in place. So far, the 106th Division had suffered more than 8,000 casualties, and the heavy losses to the troops
Zhong, the squadron leader, and more than half of the squad were killed or wounded.
On August 20, all participating Japanese troops arrived at designated locations to assemble and stand ready.
On August 22, the Japanese base camp ordered: Central China dispatched troops, and the Chinese fleet should launch an attack at the right time, defeat the main force of the Chinese army and capture Wuhan, and the North China fleet launched a diversionary attack in China.
At 17:00 that day, Commander Yanjun 64th Commander Guan issued the order to launch the final general offensive. At this point, the battle reached the most critical moment.
When the war reaches this level, both sides will try their best to mobilize their troops and generals, striving to be the last straw to crush their opponents.
On August 23, the Japanese Second Army, under the command of Lieutenant General Dongjiu Niguan Yanwang, commanded the 10th and 16th divisions, and it took only one week from Hefei to reach Xiaogan. The troops stationed in Xiaogan
The 55th Army suffered heavy losses, and Army Commander Wang Gantian was so frightened that he quickly sent five emergency telegrams to the Wuhan Military Commission asking for help.
As soon as this telegram was sent, the entire Wuhan camp jumped to their feet. Xiaogan was located at the rear of Wuhan. If Xiaogan fell, the Japanese army could quickly attack Wuhan from behind and surround Wuhan tightly. Therefore, Xiaogan must not be lost.
I remember that the anxious Chairman Chiang turned red-eyed and immediately gave the commander-in-chief of the Fifth War Zone Li Zongren a death order. Xiaogan must be guarded no matter what, otherwise everyone from the commander of the war zone to the corps commander and division commander would be severely punished by military law.
Commander Li, who received the death order, was also anxious, but when he looked for troops everywhere, he found that all his troops were trapped in the Wuhan area, and there was no way to get out in a short time. And even if he could mobilize
We only have one or two regiments of troops, which is a drop in the bucket compared to the 50,000 to 60,000 troops on the Xiaogan battlefield.
Seeing Chief Li running around in the war room anxiously, Chief of Staff Xu Zuyi suddenly said with eyes brightening: "Gong De, I remembered, we still have one division of troops that has not been moved, and he will definitely be able to
Arrive at Xiaogan within two days."
"Oh? Which army is it!" Chief Li rushed to Xu Zuyi and asked anxiously.
Xu Zuyi smiled and said: "Gong De, please don't forget that just over two months ago, you sent a division capable of fighting to Suizhou to rest and recuperate. It has been more than two months now. Presumably this army must have
You must have finished your rest, right?"
Commander Li slapped Zhuo Zai in sudden realization and shouted: "Yes, how could I forget about Zhongxin, a tiger general? Moreover, two months ago, when he sent over a whole division's equipment, he also said to me
He needed a few months of rest, and I even said a few words to him at that time."
"Sir, come and see!" Xu Zuyi walked to the large map hanging on the wall and pointed at the map and said: "Suizhou is only about 380 miles away from Xiaogan, and Zhongxin's army is equipped with more than a hundred trucks. They
If we use these trucks to transport troops, we can make a round trip at most in one day, and we can transport the troops in at most three days. Judging from the consistent combat effectiveness of Zhongxin's troops, it will not be a problem to stop the Japanese army for ten days and a half. By then, we will be able to
We have calmly mobilized troops from other places to support Xiaogan."
Chief Li nodded: "Okay, without further ado, you immediately send a telegram to the 300th Division and order him to immediately reinforce Xiaogan!"
"yes!"
Just when Chief Li sent a telegram to Su Rui, our protagonist, Chief Su, was standing at Magok Airport to greet the group.
Standing next to the flight runway, Su Rui squinted his eyes and looked at the Tomcat aircraft passing by in the sky, with a look of relief flashing in his eyes. After more than two months of intensive training, the more than one hundred
The students quickly completed the transition from students to soldiers. Now they can independently fly fighter planes to take off and land, and the rest is actual combat performance.
But Su Rui didn't know how many of these students would transform into eagles in the sky. The only thing he knew was that this road must be full of blood and mud.
At this moment, a strange-looking three-engine transport plane with a blue sky and white sun flag painted on its fuselage flew from a distance. It staggered down to the airport runway, raising dust all over the sky, and when it landed,
The fuselage trembled violently, and Zheng Shaoyu's face turned pale as he stood behind Su Rui in fright.
Zheng Shaoyu knew very well who was in this plane. If the pilot's rudeness and carelessness caused any injuries to the people inside, this usually smooth-talking officer would have to skin him.
Fortunately, this transport plane, known as "Aunt Juncker", was very competitive and sturdy, and did not cause any problems due to the pilot's rude movements when landing, and finally stopped quietly on the runway.
Before the door of the transport plane could be opened, a furious Zheng Shaoyu rushed forward and opened the door of the front of the plane, pulled the two pilots out and cursed viciously: "Liang Tiancheng, Zhang Jia, you two bastards"
, if you want to die, just say so, I will personally send you on your way. But don’t drag me with you to be buried with you!"
Liang Tiancheng, who was pulled out of the driving position, argued angrily: "Captain, don't blame me. I've only driven this thing for less than ten hours. It's good that it landed safely. What else do you want?"
"
"Yes, Captain, I joined the 300th Division to learn fighter piloting, not to fly this slow transport plane. It would be great if Commander Liang and I could fly it back."
"You... are you still reasonable in cooperating?"
Zheng Shaoyu stared at Liang Tiancheng angrily and was speechless for a moment. This transport plane, whose full name is JU-52 and nicknamed Aunt Juncker, was just sent by the Logistics Department a few days ago, and it was intended to go to Luoyang.
Pick up Suri's family.
But Zheng Shaoyu looked through the entire flying brigade, but no one had ever flown a transport aircraft. The training subjects of the flying brigade had reached the most critical moment, and Zheng Shaoyu couldn't get away. In the end, he had to send out Liang Tiancheng and a group of people with better driving skills.
Zhang Jia, a student with the best grades, was sent out.
But he didn't expect that he would make such a big mistake in front of Su Rui right after he came back, which almost scared Zheng Shaoyu's heart out of his chest.
Looking at the careless Liang Tiancheng and the aggrieved Zhang Jia, Zheng Shaoyu gritted his teeth and said: "You two, report to the solitary room immediately after you return, and you are not allowed to come out within two days!"
"ah……"
Liang Tiancheng and Zhang Jia were speechless for a moment. They didn't expect that after working so hard to bring back the three ladies from the master's seat, they would get such a result.
Just when Zheng Shaoyu was furious, Su Rui couldn't stop scolding the two crappy transport pilots and quickly opened the cabin door and helped the four pale beauties down one by one.
As soon as Song Ziqing got off the plane, she quickly ran to the side and held the wings of the plane and vomited until clear water came out, which made her feel better.
Su Rui quickly walked over, supported Song Ziqing and asked softly: "Ziqing, what's wrong with you? Why are you vomiting so much?"
Song Ziqing stood up straight and rolled her eyes at Su Rui, then reached out to take the handkerchief handed over by Xiao Yu and wiped her mouth.
Su Rui said strangely: "Hey... Ziqing, I'm talking to you, why are you ignoring me?"
Xu Yaoshan on the side said angrily: "You idiot, Sister Ziqing is pregnant, but you don't know anything. You are really stupid."
"What? Ziqing is pregnant, I'm going to be a father?" Su Rui was stunned and looked at Song Ziqing with blank eyes.
"Well, I've seen the doctor, and the doctor said it's been more than three months." Song Ziqing said shyly.
"It's been more than three months." Su Rui calculated and found that this was the time when they left Xuzhou, and the time completely matched.
Thinking of this, Su Rui felt a huge surprise falling from the sky, and his whole body seemed to be wrapped in a huge ball of happiness. For a moment, his whole body stood there blankly.
Xu Yaoshan curled her lips and said, "Hmph...this idiot must be so happy that he is stupid."
"Hehe, sister Yaoshan, why do I smell a sour smell?" Yang Peile on the side hugged Xu Yaoshan's arm and laughed softly.
"Hey, Lele, you damn girl, don't talk about me either. I was so jealous in those days." Now it was Xu Yaoshan's turn to be unhappy. She hugged Yang Peile's small waist and counterattacked: "Then
Do you want me to arrange for you and him to consummate your marriage immediately tonight?"
"You...Sister Yaoshan is so bad." Yang Peile was naturally not a match for Xu Yaoshan, who was quite capable of talking nonsense, and her face turned red with embarrassment.
At this time, Su Rui also greeted several women to get on the bus and prepare to return to the headquarters of the 300th Division.
At this time, a Liang car drove quickly from a distance and stopped next to them. After the car door opened, Liang Zhi walked quickly out of the car and handed Su Rui a telegram manuscript.
"Sir, the commander of the theater called us and ordered us to immediately set out with the entire army and rush to the rescue of Xiaogan. There must be no mistakes, otherwise military law will be imposed!"
