In the morning, before dawn, Lin En returned to his residence, changed his clothes, and stood on the highest floor of the Shanghai Hotel.
You can clearly see the troops gathering in the distance,
"Fifth Master" Shopkeeper Sun knocked on the door and came in.
"Shopkeeper Sun hasn't left yet? Didn't I tell you that Shanghai is not safe and asked you to leave early?"
"I'm an old man, so I'm not afraid of danger. I can die anywhere! Besides, there can't be no one in front of Mr. Wu."
Linn nodded and stopped trying to persuade him, "How's it going outside?"
"It is said that half of the 87th Division was destroyed, and the 88th Division suffered less losses. But the Japs' boats on the Huangpu River are so powerful that with one shot, an entire platoon will be killed, and they can't get in!"
After finishing speaking, shopkeeper Sun continued with a sigh:
"But I don't know who the god is? He actually sank the kid's boat last night!"
"Early this morning, the common people along the river were looking for Japanese Japs along the river. If they found one, they would beat them to death. The common people were overjoyed to have this opportunity to beat up a drowned dog!"
"There are also those soldiers who swore that today they would drive all the little devils in Shanghai to the Huangpu River to feed the fish, so that the people can fight for two more days to vent their anger. They are gathering now!"
After hearing this, Lin En was actually a little interested. She put on her coat and prepared to go out to watch the fun.
As he walked, he ordered: "When the American cargo ship comes, donate the anti-aircraft guns on the ship. Our air force will have one less aircraft to fight, but we can't let the little devils bully us!"
"In addition, part of the medicine on the ship will be donated, leaving part for us to organize doctors ourselves. All injured people in the city will be treated for free!"
Shopkeeper Sun nodded one after another, "I've written it all down, and we'll start preparing now."
After finishing the business, Lin En happily ran to the riverside to watch the common people hunting turtles!
…
On the morning of the 16th, after confirming that the warships of the Japanese Third Fleet on the Huangpu River, including their flagship Izumo, had been sunk on a large scale, the Chinese military was extremely excited.
In the past two days, the presence of these warships had caused them great casualties, but they still had no way to fight back.
Chinese Navy? How many torpedo boats do they count?
Well now, without naval gun support, these little devils are just hedgehogs trapped in a cage, and they will knock them out sooner or later.
Sure enough, after a day and night of fierce fighting, the Chinese army, with the help of heavy artillery and tanks, successfully wiped out all the Japanese troops stationed in Shanghai!
At this point, there is not a single Japanese soldier in Shanghai!
The people in Shanghai were so happy that when they saw the soldiers passing by, they came forward to express their condolences!
Before there was time to celebrate, intelligence showed that Japan had dispatched two divisions and a vanguard force of more than 50,000 people to assist Shanghai.
But it's unclear where they will land.
soon,
The very next day, the remnants of the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet joined the Fourth Fleet, more than thirty warships, and three aircraft carriers to violently bombard the Wusongkou defenders. The Chinese military position instantly turned into a sea of flames.
Then, led by Matsui Iwane, the Japanese 3rd and 11th divisions easily landed in the Sichuan Shakou and Wusongkou areas, and established a solid position.
The Chinese military urgently mobilized the 9th and 15th Group Armies to conduct anti-landing operations.
I couldn't help but feel glad that I had eliminated the little devils in Shanghai, otherwise, I would have faced a terrible situation of being attacked from both sides.
However, since there is no navy, there is nothing we can do about the warships on the sea, so we cannot advance to the seaside. We can only watch the little devils land and establish positions.
After the Japanese troops landed, they took advantage of their mechanization and the army, with the support of the navy and air force, quickly pushed the front towards downtown Shanghai.
The two sides launched a fierce tug-of-war at Luodian, an important battle position.
The commander of the 15th Group Army ordered to occupy Luodian at all costs. The Japanese army was unwilling to fail and continued to increase its troops.
In a few days, the little devils lost more than 10,000 people in this place.
The Chinese army was dying at a rate of one division in two days!
On the 22nd, Japan once again increased its troops, and the 9th, 13th, and 101st divisions landed.
At the same time, Chinese troops from Sichuan, Shaanxi, Hunan, Guizhou, Jiangxi, and other parts of the country came to Shanghai to participate in the war!
When these troops set off, the people stationed in the camp lined the streets to see them off, handing candies, cigarettes, and fruits to the soldiers. Many people shed tears and said, "Fight well and drive the little devils out of China!"
At this point, Japan has invested 110,000 troops, while China has invested 700,000 troops, and the total troops invested by both sides near Shanghai exceed 800,000. The Battle of Songhu has officially entered a fierce battle!
However, despite China's numerical superiority, it is still difficult to stop the joint offensive of the little devils on land, sea and air!
Lin En was so anxious that he even took more than a dozen donated anti-aircraft guns and ran to the headquarters of China's third theater, forcing them to quickly find the location of the Japanese aircraft carrier.
The commander personally met Lin En. Lin En's name had been heard many times in the ears of army leaders like him.
What's more, during the Chinese New Year period, Lin En visited all the Japanese gyms in Shanghai, and even many martial arts masters from Japan's main island were beaten to death by him.
Newspapers from various places almost put him on a pedestal! He shook his head several times after reading it!
As soon as the two met, Lin En didn't talk nonsense. In front of him, he punched through a steel plate more than ten centimeters thick and then tore it open from the middle!
The commander was so frightened that he swallowed his saliva, feeling that what those newspapers said was too modest.
"Find the location of the Little Japanese aircraft carrier and I'll get rid of them!"
"Okay, okay! I will send planes and ships right now. I can always send whatever I can. I will find them as soon as possible!"
Two days later, the news finally came back that the three Japanese aircraft carriers were all near the Ma'an Islands, 130 kilometers away from Shanghai.
Linn didn't wait any longer. That night, she found a guide and drove a speedboat in the dark to the Saddle Islands.
When parting, the commander personally came to say goodbye, "The hero is here. If we can succeed, I will definitely inform the whole country and let the people all over the country know about the hero's feat!"
Lin En almost got goosebumps when she heard this. She was afraid that he would say some nonsense about how the wind was rustling and the water was cold, so she quickly urged the boat to start.
The man who drove the boat was a lieutenant from the Navy who was very familiar with the sea conditions near Shanghai. He took Linn to the Saddle Islands in a short time.
Lin En saw a dark figure parked in the sea from a distance, especially three giant ships, floating darkly in the sea, like three hills.
"I'll send you there. I'll have already written a suicide note when I get there!" The lieutenant who sailed the boat looked like he was ready to be brave. Apparently he had made preparations before arriving.
Lin En shook his head and said: "No, you wait nearby and be careful to hide!"
After saying that, he jumped out of the speedboat, his lower legs submerged into the sea, and the seawater actually flooded up to the top of his ankles.
Lin En just "stands" on the sea and runs towards the fleet!
Although it is said that after Danjin, the water can reach "up to the knees". However, the situation in the ocean is much more dangerous, with ocean currents, undercurrents, waves, and even huge waves as high as a person!
But Lin En's physical strength is so strong, one toe is stronger than ten strong men, and the strength of ten toes is enough to crush the undercurrents and waves in the sea.
From a distance, it looks like walking on flat ground, with the waves bowing their heads!
The navy lieutenant's eyes widened, "Damn it, is this man the Dragon King?"
After a while, Lin En ran under an aircraft carrier. He felt that the aircraft carrier was really big, and the cabins inside could be sealed. If he had to tear the holes one by one, he didn't know how many holes he would have to tear. It was really troublesome and not very refreshing!
Simply, using both hands and feet, he jumped onto the aircraft carrier deck in a few seconds. Regardless of the stunned looks of the few little devils, he went up and broke their arms and legs.
