The journey of the Kunisaki detachment has officially begun, but the 6th Brigade of the Field Heavy Artillery is already at the end of the road!

The mountain artillery was really cool this time, with the remaining few artillery of the machine gun company, a 150mm caliber heavy field howitzer was manipulated more numbly than Zhong Yi, and when there was no longer a devil's heavy artillery in the field of vision, the mountain artillery simply aimed the muzzle at the devil artillery in front of him who was trying to counterattack.

As soon as the shot passed, more than a dozen devils were wiped out, and they exploded!

The mountain cannon was fighting hard, when he suddenly felt someone tapping him on the shoulder.

"Get out of here!" The mountain cannon flicked his shoulders impatiently and quickly turned the handle.

The next moment, Zhong Yi's face appeared in front of the mountain cannon, and he asked with a dark face, "Do you have donkey hair stuffed in your ears?" ”

"Commander-in-chief?" The mountain cannon subconsciously tilted his head back to prevent Zhong Yi's saliva from spraying on his face, and asked again, "What did you just say?" I didn't hear clearly. ”

Zhong Yi shouted: "I said, hurry up and blow up the artillery and withdraw!" ”

After speaking, Zhong Yi jumped off the gun carriage and left without looking back.

It was only by this time that the mountain artillery discovered that the remnants of the 367th Regiment had begun to retreat.

The mountain artillery muttered, jumped off the gun mount, and motioned to several of his artillerymen to carry over all the remaining dozen boxes of shells, stack them under the gun mount, and then pull the grenades into one of the boxes.

Then, the mountain artillery and a few artillerymen used their strength to run outside.

After running less than 50 meters, the grenade exploded with a bang, and the mountain artillery and a few artillerymen hurriedly jumped into the trench that they had already seen in advance, and just as they bent down, a dozen boxes of large-caliber shells stacked together exploded violently, and a huge mushroom cloud rose into the air in an instant, swallowing the cannon at once.

It took a few minutes for the mountain artillery to straighten up from the trench.

When I looked forward again, I saw that the cannon I had operated before had been blown into a pile of scrap metal.

"It's a fucking shame." The mountain artillery shook his head, and shouted at the few artillery soldiers behind him, "Go!" ”

At this time, the entire heavy artillery position had already turned into a sea of fire, and almost all of the more than 70 large-caliber heavy artillery pieces were completely destroyed, and the officers and men of the heavy artillery brigade were also killed and wounded.

Of course, the result is not what Zhong Yi cares about the most.

What Zhong Yi cares about most is the spirit of the remnants of the 367th Regiment!

After the battle just now, the mental outlook of the remnants of the 367th Regiment has obviously changed dramatically, and all of them have become energetic, and the previous depression and decadence have disappeared.

He Ajiu caught up with Zhong Yi and couldn't help but say happily: "Ah Yi, this time the little devil has lost a lot!" At least one artillery brigade was knocked out by us just now! I'll report to Boss Dai and Nanjing! ”

"It's still free." Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "How can I have time to send you a telegram now?" Before the devil's reinforcements arrive, run as far as possible! ”

He Ajiu said: "Yes." ”

……

The remnants of the 367th Regiment quickly evacuated the battlefield after completing the task, but the main force of the national army gathered in more than 100 divisions in western Shanghai had no way to evacuate quickly!

Although Chairman Chiang had already issued the order to retreat last night, it was not an easy task for more than 100 divisions of troops to evacuate the battlefield!

At this moment, the national jun of more than 100 divisions has become a pot of porridge.

Speaking from the heart, the Guojun Command actually drew up a retreat plan, not to mention whether this plan is perfect or not, at least the plan has been drawn up, which troops will be broken, which troops will block the front line of Taicang and Qingpu, and which troops will quickly occupy the Wufu and Xicheng lines, all of which have been arranged!

It is a pity that the time left by Chairman Chiang for the retreat of Guojun is too short! It's only one night!

Even the most elite Central Army is equipped with radio stations at the division level, and local units such as the Gui Army and the Sichuan Army are only equipped with units at the army level, so the combat units at all levels below can only rely on the signal corps to pass them down the level.

And that's not even the deadliest of all!

What is really fatal is that there are too many intermediate command levels in Guojun!

Let's calculate, below the command is the theater of operations, under the theater of operations is the strategic cluster, below the strategic cluster is the army group, below the army group is the corps, and below the corps is the army, and then the division! That is, the order of the high command is sent to the division, and it is passed through six times in between!

With so many levels, it must cause poor communication!

Some of the troops had a deep background, and they got accurate information from the high command as soon as possible, and began to retreat overnight.

Other troops came over and asked, what? The command has already given the order to retreat? Let's get out of the way!

Shangfeng hasn't given the order yet? No matter how much, the command has given the order anyway, and sooner or later it will have to retreat!

Now, the situation is out of control!

After more than three months of fierce fighting, the Guojun on the Songhu battlefield was already exhausted, and it was all supported by a breath of energy.

Now, as soon as this breath of anger is released, the army of more than 100 divisions and 500,000 troops collapsed in an instant, and they all rushed to run back!

As long as you have read the Battle of Weishui, you know how terrible the herd effect on the battlefield is, the wind is loud, and the grass and trees are all soldiers!

What's more, Shanghai sent a large number of small troops, and Qiao Cheng Cheng Guojun engaged in sabotage and created chaos.

How chaotic is the situation? As the commander-in-chief of the 19th Group Army, Xue Yue had only a few guards left around him, and he was almost captured alive by the pursuing devils, and finally relied on the water to get his life back.

After dawn the next day, the bombers of the Japanese Army Aviation and the Hainan Airlines took to the air one after another, flew to the sky over Huxi and looked down, good guys, I saw that the railway line and the highway line were all crowded with the national juns who were rushing to retreat, and the bridges were even more crowded, and countless national juns and equipment were crowded on the bridges, unable to move.

Of course, the little devil will not be soft-hearted, and immediately launch a dive bomb, and then dive and strafe after dropping the bomb!

At this time, Guojun was completely chaotic, and began to squeeze forward frantically, and finally formed a large-scale stampede!

It makes people angry, the Battle of Songhu fought hard for three months, and about 150,000 soldiers were killed in the battle, but on the day of the retreat on the 9th, nearly 50,000 wounded died in a stampede.

Zhong Yi tried his best to defend Jinshanwei for two days and nights, and defended the city alone in Jinshan County, just to avoid the recurrence of such a historical tragedy, but unfortunately it was useless.

The inertia of history is not so easy to change.
