Chapter 620 - Principal with Interest
Five Prisons Palace, Hankou Headquarters.
Zhang Shiliang was working on the sand table with several staff officers from the General Staff.
While working, Zhang Shiliang said to Zhong Yi: "Attend, up to now, there are still 43,000 combat troops left in my Wuhan garrison!" ”
Of the 150,000 national troops at the beginning of the war, there are now less than 50,000!
After all, there is still a big difference between the defense of Wuhan and the defense of Nanjing.
In the Battle of Nanjing, although the 100,000 national troops had collapsed, they were all veterans, and they only needed to reunite their military spirits, and they would become an elite division again in the blink of an eye!
But even so, after several days of fierce fighting, only 60,000 of the 100,000 elite veterans broke through!
Among the 150,000 troops who participated in the defense of Wuhan, the real veterans of the 100 battles were 2,000 people from the 367 Brigade, plus more than 30,000 wounded at the Huangpi Shelter Station!
Therefore, Zhong Yi is basically satisfied with the current results!
At that moment, Zhong Yi lightly bowed his head and said: "It's a little better than I expected, I originally thought that being able to leave 30,000 people would already be a good result!" ”
After a pause, Zhong Yi asked again, "What about the Japanese army?" ”
Zhang Shiliang said: "There are about 100,000 Japanese troops left!" ”
When Zhu Liangcheng heard this, his eyes froze, and he said in a deep voice: "In other words, the strength of the Japanese army is still more than twice that of our army!" ”
"It's not just that!" Zhang Shiliang continued, "According to the information provided by the 1st Squadron and the 2nd Squadron of Special Warfare, in the street battles in the previous half month, a large number of Japanese engineers, baggage, cavalry and even artillery participated in a large number of them, which means that most of the remaining 100,000 Japanese troops are combat infantry!" ”
Zhu Liangcheng said: "If you say this, the gap in combat effectiveness is even greater!" ”
"What's wrong?" Zhong Yi turned his head and looked at Zhu Liangcheng with a smile, "Old Zhu, is it possible that you still want to use your own strength in the Wuhan Garrison to eat the second army of the East Kureru Palace?" ”
Zhu Liangcheng smiled, not to mention, he really had this idea.
"Don't think about it, it doesn't exist!" Zhong Yi shook his head and said, "Our troops, the level of equipment is too different from the devil, hiding in the city to fight street battles, and can barely deal with the devils, once they are in the field, they will be gnawed to the scum in minutes!" ”
After speaking, Zhong Yi said to Zhang Shiliang again: "Staff Officer Zhang, you continue to analyze!" ”
"Yes!" Zhang Shiliang agreed, and then said, "As of yesterday, the casualty ratio between the enemy and us has risen to 1.2 to 1, specifically the Japanese army has lost 6,000 people, and our army has lost 5,000 people. ”
"Today's advantage will only be greater!" Speaking of this, Zhong Yi said again, "And as time goes by, our army's advantage in street battles will only get bigger and bigger, so don't look at our small number now, but in the end, the first to be unable to hold on must be the second army of Higashikure Palace!" ”
As soon as the words fell, a communicator hurriedly came in and reported: "Counselor, the Hanyang Command reports that the 3rd Special Operations Squadron has successfully killed Nakamura Jun, who is at the top of the devil hunting list, on the battlefield of Taojiaxiang!" ”
"Well done!" Zhong Yi said, "Call back immediately and praise the 3rd Special Warfare Squadron!" ”
After a pause, Zhong Yi said again: "However, it's not enough to just kill Nakamura Jun, since the little devil dares to owe us a debt, he must get it back with interest!" ”
……
Near Hankou Railway Station, Niangniang Palace.
Li Sigen was armed with a water rifle equipped with a scope, and hid behind the ruins of a private house.
Li Sigen snorted at the corpses of several national soldiers lying on the street, and said to the mountain baby not far behind him: "Mountain baby, did you find the remains of these comrades-in-arms on the street?" ”
"Found it!" Shan Wazi said, "It's all fatal with one shot!" ”
Li Sigen said: "And the parts of the bullet are all in the head!" ”
Shan Wazi said: "This is enough to show that the opposite side must be a devil special forces!" ”
"That's what we're looking for!" Li Sigen said, "I was still worried that after they shot the rooster, they would take it and leave the battlefield, but now it seems that they are thinking too much!" ”
Shan Wazi said: "It's better to stay, otherwise where can we find it?" ”
As she spoke, she took out a mirror from her satchel, put it on the tip of her bayonet, and leaned out of the low wall where she was hiding to observe the terrain ahead.
After a while, Shan Wazi took back the small mirror and said to Li Sigen: "Captain, there are three suspicious targets ahead, one is in the direction of eleven o'clock, under a ruin!" On the other side, at nine o'clock, there was a small western-style building that had collapsed in half, and there seemed to be activity behind the window on the left side of the second floor; The third is at half past one o'clock, the bell tower of the train station! ”
Li Sigen groaned: "Mountain baby, where do you estimate the devil's sniper will be." ”
Shan Wazi said: "I think it is most likely that the devil sniper is hiding in the bell tower of the railway station!" ”
Li Sigen said: "Mountain baby, you are still a little tender, let me tell you, there are people in the three directions you just mentioned, and they are all snipers of the devil's special forces!" ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, Shan Wazi said awe-inspiringly, "Then can we deal with it?" ”
Two against three, and the other party is still waiting for work, and the mountain baby feels unsure.
"Are you scared?" After Li Sigen finished speaking, he pointed to his head, and said with a cruel smile, "Simply compared to technology, even if we can be stronger than the little devil, we are also stronger!" But if we compare brains, we can throw off the devil a few streets! So, if you want to deal with the three devils on the opposite side, you have to use your brains! ”
"Captain, you say, what's the matter?" Shan Wazi gritted his teeth and said.
Li Sigen said: "The first step is to change to a better shooting position!" The position we are in now, the three shooting positions of the devil can be threatened, so fighting the devil here is looking for death! ”
Speaking of this, Li Sigen observed the surrounding terrain, and then said to the mountain girl: "Do you see the tiled house at four o'clock on the left?" ”
Shan Wazi nodded: "Well, I saw it!" ”
Li Sigen said again: "There is an excellent shooting position under the eaves of that tiled house, hiding there can not only threaten the devil sniper in the direction of eleven o'clock, but also avoid the threat of snipers in the other two directions!" You go over and ambush now, and I'll be in charge of luring the devil later!" ”
Shan Wazi said: "Captain, why don't I lure the enemy?" ”
"It's an order!" Li Sigen said coldly, "Execute it immediately!" ”
"Yes!" The mountain baby agreed, supported the ground with both elbows, and skillfully crawled to the tiled house in the direction of four o'clock, and after climbing to the ground, he ambushed down.
