I don’t know when, Wang Husheng came to Xu Rui’s side. Along with Wang Husheng, there were also Songhu Military Division Deputy Commander Yang Rui, Shi Changqing, Wu Liang and other battalion commanders! Including Qi, who had been by Xu Rui’s side all along.
All six battalion commanders, including Battalion Commander Wu Han and Eighth Battalion Commander Liu Ming, looked at Xu Rui with extremely fanatical looks!
It’s so enjoyable, so fucking enjoyable! This is called fighting, this is called fighting!
Compared with this current battle, the first Battle of Songhu they fought two years ago was nothing short of bullshit!
Two years ago, one hundred divisions of the National Army fought against nine Japanese divisions, with 700,000 fighting against 300,000. They fought for nearly three months. In the end, they were defeated by the Japanese. In the end, they retreated all the way to Nanjing, and even Nanjing was defeated.
The city was lost! It was such a shame that before retreating, they even threw away all the seriously injured people.
But now, one regiment of their Songhu Army Division has completely annihilated a Japanese division!
Of course, the regiment in their Songhu Military Division is larger, and its strength is comparable to that of a National Army Class A division, but the Japanese 20th Division, which is about to be completely annihilated by them, is also a permanent division! Even if it is just one
A division annihilating a Japanese division was a jaw-dropping achievement!
If one division annihilates a division, what will be the result if you command 70 elite divisions?
Several battalion commanders couldn't help but think that if the commander had been responsible for the Battle of Songhu two years ago, let alone three months, the Japs could capture Shanghai within three years, and they should be burned with incense! Maybe, the Japs would
In turn, the National Army will be completely annihilated. Didn't they see that the 20th Division was about to be completely annihilated by them?
Although the 20th Division has not been completely wiped out yet, their fate is already sealed!
"Well, the little devil is about to die!" Xu Rui nodded and said, "Order all battalions to prepare for a counterattack!"
Of course, Xu Rui would not be so naive as to think that with just one explosion and one fire, he could blow up and burn to death the three infantry regiments of the 20th Division that broke into Jiangwan Town, even though the scale of the explosion was sufficient.
Large, several thousand kilograms of explosives alone were used, and nearly one hundred tons of amine nitrate were added!
However, these thousands of kilograms of explosives and nearly one hundred tons of amine nitrate are evenly distributed throughout Jiangwan Town. Li Xiaoxia has set up thousands of explosion points, and the explosives buried in each explosion point are only a few kilograms. If it is 20 meters away,
Within the range, it is certainly fatal, but if it is farther away, it is not fatal.
There is also the deflagration of amine nitrate, which is not fatal unless it is directly consumed by flames.
Even according to the most optimistic estimates, the number of Japanese who died directly in the explosion and fire would never exceed a thousand!
But the chaos caused by this big explosion and fire is beyond imagination! This is a fatal threat!
In fact, Xu Rui's biggest intention when he designed this big explosion and created a fire was to create chaos, completely disrupting the Japs' command system and destroying their will to resist.
Of course, if the Japs continue to stay in Jiangwan Town, they will still be burned to death when the fire completely spreads. But it is obviously impossible for the Japs to just wait and not run away, but as long as the little Japs panic,
Once you run away, you will definitely fall into chaos. At this time, it is time to fight back.
Therefore, the fruits of victory still have to be harvested by the Songhu Military Division itself!
Yang Rui immediately replied: "Commander, don't worry, all battalions are ready!"
Xu Rui stared at the vast sea of fire in front of him and asked: "Are the fifth and sixth battalions in place?"
"Commander, don't worry, we are already in place!" Yang Rui replied again, "The little devil is really dead this time!"
"Okay!" Xu Rui raised his wrist and looked at the time, then said, "It's almost time, we can counterattack!"
"Yes!" Yang Rui responded loudly, then turned around and roared at the top of his lungs at the six battalion commanders, "Each battalion obeys the order and counterattacks in full, counterattacks in full, counterattacks in full..."
The next moment, screams like the earth was shattering were heard at Jiangwan Airport.
Then, tens of thousands of Chinese soldiers armed with various weapons rushed out in overwhelming numbers, and then launched a full-scale counterattack along several pre-selected routes! These routes were chosen before the war, and along the way
The residential buildings are relatively sparse, so the fire intensity is also small. Through these routes, the battalions of the Songhu Military Division can easily go back to the outside of the town and start hunting down the remaining Japanese soldiers who have hurriedly evacuated Jiangwan Town!
(Dividing line)
At this time, the commander of the 77th Infantry Regiment, Ryosuke Fujimuro, had just emerged from the sea of fire.
When rushing through the last fire alley, Fujimuro Ryosuke's military uniform was ignited. After rushing out of the fire alley, Fujimuro Ryosuke fell to the ground and rolled several times, but could not put out the fire. The two orderlies
He rushed up to help put out the fire, but failed to extinguish it. When he was about to be burned alive, Fujimuro Ryosuke suddenly discovered a small smelly ditch.
At that moment, Fujimuro Ryosuke didn't even think about it and plunged into the stinking ditch.
The fire on his back was finally put out, and Fujimuro Ryosuke crawled out of the smelly ditch wet. After crawling out, Fujimuro Ryosuke stretched out his hand to wipe the dirty water on his face. He looked around, only to find that there was only one person around him.
Following the two orderlies, including deputy commander Katamura Roshichiro, the entire regiment headquarters ran away.
What made Fujimuro Ryosuke even more frustrated was that all three of his infantry brigades were lost.
"Haga!" Fujimuro Ryosuke cursed and called the two orderlies to him. Just when he was about to instruct them to find the three missing infantry brigades, an overwhelming shout suddenly rang out not far away.
Listening, Fujimuro Ryosuke suddenly lost his courage. It was the Chinese Jun team! The Chinese Jun team began to fight back!
These damn cunning Chinese are really good at picking the moment, and they actually chose this moment to fight back!
The Chinese Jun team counterattacked at this time, which was really helpless, because Fujimuro Ryosuke couldn't even contact his troops, so it was impossible to organize a defense. There was no choice. Fujimuro Ryosuke could only lead two
The orderly soldiers ran wildly. If you don't want to be a prisoner of the Chinese, or if you don't want to commit suicide, you'd better escape from this ghost place!
Before he had run far, he saw three dark figures running towards him in the light of the fire. Ryosuke Fujimuro instinctively raised his Southern-style pistol, followed by an orderly who also raised his 38.
Da Gai, the three black figures also raised their rifles without hesitation, and there was a firefight in front of them.
At this time, Fujimuro Ryosuke suddenly felt blessed and asked: "Baga, which alliance are you from?"
The three black figures on the opposite side were immediately stunned, and one of them immediately replied: "Sir, I am the adopted man of the mountain from the first squadron of the fourth squadron of the third squadron of the 77th Infantry Regiment!"
"Yo Xi!" Fujimuro Ryosuke was overjoyed when he heard this, and said, "I am Fujimuro Ryosuke, are your squad leader and squadron leader nearby? Also, where is your squadron leader?"
The righteous man on the mountain immediately stood there dumbly, not knowing how to answer.
"Baga!" Ryosuke Fujimuro cursed immediately. Although Yoshio Yamama did not answer, Ryosuke Fujimuro got the answer he wanted from his expression. Obviously, the sudden big explosion just now
, and the fire that followed had completely disrupted his troops.
At the moment, Fujimuro Ryosuke could only bring these three Japanese soldiers with him.
Three more soldiers appeared around him, and Fujimuro Ryosuke became a little more courageous. Then, Fujimuro Ryosuke gathered more than a dozen remaining Japanese soldiers on the way to escape, including those from his own regiment and others from other alliances.
However, as more and more Japs gathered around them, the target of Fujimuro Ryosuke and his group became bigger and bigger.
At a certain moment, Fujimuro Ryosuke and his group of Japanese soldiers finally attracted the attention of the Chinese pursuers.
In the darkness, a group of Chinese soldiers suddenly jumped out and opened fire without warning.
At first, Fujimuro Ryosuke tried to fight back and eliminate this group of Chinese soldiers, but soon, more and more Chinese soldiers came from all directions, and they began to encircle them from both wings, and they were about to fall into the trap of the Chinese soldiers.
Surrounded by the enemy, Fujimuro Ryosuke quickly led his troops to retreat, but by this time it was too late to retreat.
In the blink of an eye, more Chinese soldiers swarmed in from all directions, blocking the way.
After a brief exchange of fire, Fujimuro Ryosuke and a dozen Japs were trapped in a small forest. The Southern-style pistol in Fujimuro Ryosuke's hand had been empty of bullets. He immediately threw the pistol away and then pulled out the weapon with his backhand.
He was given a saber and shouted: "I am Ryosuke Fujimuro, captain of the 77th Infantry Regiment of the Imperial Japanese Army, and I request a duel with your commander!"
Fujimuro Ryosuke still dreamed of being able to have a backrest before dying, but unfortunately, the Chinese soldiers on the opposite side did not give him such a chance. Before Fujimuro Ryosuke finished speaking, dozens of Chinese soldiers outside the grove
The soldiers fired fiercely at the same time, and the dense rain of bullets poured over them in an instant, beating Fujimuro Ryosuke and a dozen other little Japs into a sieve.
Almost at the same time, the same scene was repeated in the wilderness, fields and groves around Jiangwan Town.
The 77th Infantry Regiment, the 78th Infantry Regiment and the 80th Infantry Regiment of the Japanese army that had previously broken into Jiangwan Town had all lost effective command at this time. The regiment commander could not find the battalion captain, and the battalion captain could not be found.
The squadron leader cannot find the squad leader, the squad leader cannot find the team leader, and the team leader cannot find the soldiers. The command system at all levels is completely in chaos!
Under this situation, it is impossible for the Japanese army to organize effective resistance. On the other hand, the morale of the Japanese army has also dropped to the lowest point. On the contrary, the morale of the Chinese army is unprecedentedly high. With one going down and the other going up, the Japanese army is even less Chinese.
The soldiers were rivals, so in the chase that took place on the outskirts of Jiangwan, all the little Japanese were defeated.
Half an hour later, the first ray of dawn fell from the eastern sky, illuminating Jiangwan Town and the surrounding suburbs. At this time, the entire Jiangwan Town was still burning, but the wilderness outside Jiangwan Town was already full of chaos.
It was covered with corpses, and without exception, these corpses were all corpses of Japanese soldiers!
