Chapter 490 The plane is coming
All the 13th Division members arrived! This was the shared information Hu Yizhou received from the 36th Division on the evening of September 3.
In order to fight Wuhan this time, the Japanese devils not only prepared a lot of weapons and ammunition, but also prepared a large number of supplementary troops. They were all new recruits after training in China.
Because the commander of the Second Army was the Emperor's uncle, the 13th Division's troops were replenished very quickly. In just a few days, the system of a unit that was ambushed and annihilated was reinvigorated again.
There are no shortages of Japanese soldiers now, and there are many officers. You only need to establish a system of command system of a corps at the grassroots level, and the establishment of a corps will be restored soon.
Well, just like the security regiment, there was a war loss in the third battalion, and it was all over the first battalion's soldiers...
Because Hu Yizhou did not report his military achievements or reports, the Japanese were happy to refuse to admit that a gang and a chariot brigade were ambushed and wiped out. It has always been the Japanese style of the Japanese. Since you don’t promote it here, we will definitely not admit it!
Not long after this battle, a gang and a chariot brigade were completely wiped out. If you tell this, it will affect the morale of the army...
Of course, if you don’t admit it or not, the Japanese attack became more and more careful! Because none of them knew where the mysterious unit was? When would it appear? Once such an attacking unit appeared, no one could stand it...
On September 3, the 61st Division, which was guarding Gushi, sent a telegram, and the Japanese crossed Shihe at Shifodian and launched an attack on the 61st Division and the 77th Division defenders. The defenders of the two divisions were resisting the 10th Division with the help of the low hilly terrain.
In other words, a 71st Army is actually facing the attack of the two divisions of the Japanese, and the defensive pressure is extremely high!
In order to relieve the pressure of the 71st Army, the principal transferred two powerful generals!
One is General Zhang Zizhong (Zhong), a famous Northwest Army general, who is now the commander of the 27th Legion. However, after being promoted, his soldiers are still those soldiers, and they are not supplemented at all!
Moreover, General Zhang was sick and beaten at this time because of the local conditions. His officers and soldiers fell ill! But even so, he brought the 59th Army, who had been damaged and had not yet been repaired, to help Gushi County from Xinyang.
How many people are there in the 59th Army? One is the 38th Division, the other is the 180th Division, and two cavalry brigades... unsatisfied...
Why? Just in March this year, in order to stop the Japanese from reinforcements to Taierzhuang, the 59th Army fought against Itagaki Seishiro Division in Linyi for seven days and seven nights, and defeated Itagaki Division!
Itagaki Division is not easy to fight. The Jinsui Army and the Central Army fought in Xinkou are like that. Just think about it!
This record is a word, awesome!
The other side was the Northwest Army, the famous General Sun Lianzhong (Zhong). Although he is now the commander of the Second Army, his subordinates are still the old foundation of the Northwest Army, including the organization of the two armies, the 30th Army and the 42nd Army.
General Sun’s mission is to station in the mall, guard the first path of the Japanese through the Dabie Mountains, and guard the entrance of the gorge!
General Sun had just finished the Battle of Xuzhou. I won’t say how tragic the battle of Taierzhuang was. He retreated to the rear and waited for replenishment. As a result, he had not yet replenished the troops, so he sent him again...
Well... Why did the Lanfeng Battle be fought later than the Taierzhuang Battle, and the Central Army's organization was supplemented, but these troops from the Northwest Army were not supplemented? This is a question!
Behind them were Hu Zongnan, the commander of the 17th Army, and his first army! The first army had heavy artillery, anti-aircraft artillery, and armored troops!
Well, isn’t the location of this equipment and troops very interesting?
Of course, far-flung water cannot quench the near thirst. The two fierce generals are either still gathering or rushing to the road, and it will take a few days to reach the battlefield.
Therefore, the one who faced the Japanese soldiers at this moment was the Commander Song, who later called General Hawks and Dogs! This is one of the rare direct officers who dared to compete with the Japanese head-on. Of course, the other person's hawks are not someone's hawks, but the hawks of the country, which is a good word!
On September 4th, the morning glow filled half of the sky. On the Shi River east of Fujin Mountain, a floating bridge spanned the two sides, and the Japanese officially crossed the river to fight.
In order to cover the Japanese soldiers fighting across the river, the 12 41-style mountain cannons and 36 38-style field cannons of the Japanese Field Artillery Corps fired together, and the fake positions at the foot of the mountain were once again baptized by artillery fire.
It’s not that the Japanese are too stupid, but that the brothers of the 36th Division have become smarter!
Just as the Japanese engineer corps set up the floating bridge overnight, the brothers of the 36th Division also brought tools to the fake position and worked hard. Real-life machine gun bunkers were not easy to work, so sandbag fortifications are always OK, right?
So, the captain of the Japanese Artillery Regiment who was covering the crossing of the river saw... Baga, and continued to blow up!
This time, no one was foolishly playing with the Japanese in the fake position, and they all hid in the serious position, preparing for the next battle.
"Chirp chirp...boom boom boom..." Amid the howling and explosion of shells, the positions at the foot of the mountain once again turned into a world of thick smoke and dust.
At this moment, a roar of whimper came from the sky, and several light reconnaissance planes flew out of the sun, roaring over Mount Fujin...
Then, these reconnaissance aircraft began to hover in the sky, and two of them were flying over the top of the mountain at a low altitude, which was extremely arrogant!
"Ba, bha..." When the plane flew over Fujin Mountain, there were soldiers of the 36th Division who couldn't help but shoot at the sky, but naturally the plane couldn't touch the edge...
After flying for a while, the reconnaissance plane flew to the east...
"Report to the commander of the regiment, the scout sent a telegram, and 24 bombers had just flew over Lu'an!" The correspondent reported to Hu Yizhou.
"Go, notify friendly forces, pay attention to air defense! Notify the east and be prepared!" Hu Yizhou issued an order.
"yes!"
Soon, the defenders on Mount Fujin received news that they should hide more and more as they should hide, leaving only the observation post on the top of the mountain. Our first east also commanded the brothers to remove the camouflage net on the double-mounted anti-aircraft machine gun.
As for other general-purpose machine guns, they were all waiting in their respective combat positions, just waiting for a blind plane to come and ruthlessly make them!
The bomber used by the Japanese now is the Type 97 dive bomber. It was just put into the army last year and is a relatively advanced bomber. The bomber crews are two capable of carrying 400 kilograms of bombs, and each with a machine gun in front and behind.
"Woo woo..." The Japanese plane's speed is 423 kilometers per hour, which is very fast.
Chapter completed!
