Chapter 1038: Killing Chickens and Cattle Knives

Nanjing is not far from Wuxi and Zhenjiang, that is, the Yangtze River is a problem, as long as the Yangtze River is crossed, everything will be smooth, part of the revolutionary army, requisitioned passenger trains, with the discipline of the revolutionary party's army, almost predatory requisition, very caused a certain commotion.

It was not until after the chaos began that the officers of the Southern Army woke up from a dream and began to intervene, and even sent inspection troops to intervene, and after separating the red-eyed soldiers with batons, the riots were stopped, but dozens of passengers were injured.

The military discipline of the revolutionary party made the northwest scouts who had been monitoring them stunned, even Japan, they didn't expect that the revolutionary party army, which seemed to have some combat effectiveness, would be so chaotic, this is near the capital, from Nanjing, just across the Yangtze River, it will collapse like this, if you really go to the outer line, I don't know what it will become?

It was not easy to disperse the troops, and with the efforts of the officers, it took most of the day to waste most of the time before they succeeded in getting on the bus, and therefore, the northwest easily got their exact information. The whole of China's railways, all under the monitoring of the northwest, seems to have requisitioned trains, the train is on the railway mountain, there is no way to contact the outside world, not to mention the radio, just say the railway note system, as long as you pass by a small station, put a note, the information that the ship goes down, can still be transmitted, the revolutionary army, just requisitioned the train, drove away the passengers, but did not interfere with the driver, as long as the driver according to their demand for the ball to open.

Wuxi. This emerging city, after knowing that it is the first few nodes. It was fully prepared, and most of the wealth of the city was transferred. Those who stayed were some of them that were not very convenient to carry and carry, and 1,200 professional sergeants were added from the northwest, all of whom had been trained by the non-commissioned officer school in the northwest, and they all had considerable professional skills, and the city was defended by artillery positions, and there were even a few 350 guns in Wuxi, which were just fixed secret batteries, on land. With such artillery, if you use high-explosive shells, every attack will be fired one by one.

Out of a few 350, dozens of 250, and a batch of 203, the remaining 155 guns have more than 40 guns, replaced before, so much artillery fire. The armed personnel in Wuxi, even the gunners could not be gathered, and now, more than a thousand gunners and non-commissioned officers at the bottom have arrived. These armies were immediately reborn.

Last night, the evacuation of people who had no rest began. There are not many node cities, and outsiders should be informed. Don't come back to the node when you're in the city. There are more than 70,000 people left, one-third of whom are armed men, or at least have received some training.

However, the waiting army did not come for a long time, and the troops guarding Wuxi and Shanghai were very strange, could it be that something was wrong, and only through the information sent by the railway did they know that the revolutionary party had been delayed again, and had been waiting for the revolutionary party to attack the officers of the Northwest Army who were crying and laughing, and had known that the revolutionary party's combat effectiveness was poor, but it was so bad that it was really unheard of, and there were so many situations in the case of a train, and if it was really a rapid march in the field, God knows where it would go, and it took half a day more. It is equivalent to waiting for another half a day in vain in the northwest.

From knowing the other party's goal, to now, it has been more than a week, the slow speed of the revolutionary party, so that Wuxi and Zhenjiang, as early as a few days ago, are completely ready, if it is not for the fear of startling the snake, even the market will not open during the day, until now, there is almost no room for improvement, the only thing to do is to wait.

The 9th Brigade of the Japanese Army, together with the 6 divisions of the Revolutionary Party, arrived in the early hours of the morning, wasting almost several hours in the field, and finally arrived in the early morning to arrive in Wuxi, a huge, modern city full of wealth, in the eyes of the Japanese.

According to the agreement, the vast majority of the wealth in the node cities belonged to the revolutionary party, but the Japanese also had certain preferential treatment, and on the day of the attack, they grabbed all of them.

Under the light of the faint sky, the city seems relatively calm, there is no city gate, and the blocks are empty, as if they can be entered from all directions, and there are not even obvious traces of fortification.

Wuxi is a city in the modern sense, extending in all directions, high-rise buildings, but there is no old city gate, the night is not closed, the sky is not completely lit, the street lights on the street have not been turned off, under the soft street lamp light, it is full of warmth, eight breathable roads, so that they can capture these cities at any time.

The combined force of 90,000 people got off the train 2 kilometers away from the city, and then marched on foot, and it took 1 hour to enter the edge of the city.

Along the avenue extending in all directions, the total area of 52 square kilometers of Wuxi New City, it seems to be like a sponge, tens of thousands of troops, a steady stream of rushing into the city, the city itself has not changed much, 10,000 people, mighty, but neatly fighting, one hectare is enough to stand 10,000 people, dense, not much, according to one square meter of one person, one million people, is only one square kilometer, really dense places, one square meter at least four or five.

Buildings, buildings, roads, they have not done any battlefield investigation at all, they are not familiar with Wuxi, they only know to follow the road forward, they don't care about anything else at all, in the area specially drawn by the city, they will even go the wrong way, they will not know, under the light of the faint skylight, some places that seem to be buildings, just some scenery, from a distance, there is no road, in fact, itself is a passage.

The commander of Wuxi, Zhao Ruiying, looked at these troops with a little surprise, some things that had been prepared a long time ago were not of any use at all, but the method proposed by a young staff officer worked, when he knew the exact time of the arrival of the revolutionary party army, it was either at night or in the early morning, the visibility was low, and the urban layout of Wuxi was the kind that extended in all directions, if the revolutionary party was really allowed to attack in, it would be difficult to deal with it in all directions, so it was recommended to use the city set.

This kind of urban set, which was born from painting, basically cannot be scrutinized, in the daytime, it is a huge loophole, and it is only useful at night, but it is precisely this that plays a role, and the attacking army, unconsciously, according to the script formulated by the Northwest Army, step by step towards the abyss.

On top of a tall building in Wuxi, the commander was holding a telescope, watching the soul enter the enemy army within the city limits, the opponent was too weak, and he didn't even know the danger, and he didn't know what the normal battle was, which made him excited and depressed at the same time.

Soldiers, always fighting with the same powerful soldiers, can show their worth, facing an enemy who is not of the same grade, this is not a battle, this is just a one-sided slaughter, even if it is defeated, how much sense of accomplishment.

Even as the commander of the second-line troops, Zhao Ruiying, who is currently the division commander, has also passed several rounds of training at the Northwest Military Academy, and the continuous expansion of the Northwest Army has put more pressure on senior officers, but starting from the very basics, the school officers must be staff officers, and at the top, regiment commanders must serve in the actual combat troops, and so on.

These Zhao Ruiying have gone step by step, and this time, become the commander of the Wuxi garrison division, although it is only a garrison division, but it is equivalent to him has crossed this stage, according to what he knows, in the coming year, the northwest will increase the pace of army expansion, from the current 100 or so divisions, to between 200 and 250, and these expanded troops, part of them are separated from the shadow troops of the first-line troops, and more are the second-line troops, which can go further. For him, who has been in the position of brigade commander for more than a year, it is a rare opportunity.

What's more, the key battle to pacify the south was fought in Wuxi, Wuxi and Zhenjiang, as the closest node cities to Nanjing, plus these two cities are the richest among all the nodes in the south, so it is natural that they will be hit by the first wave.

Even if he is unhappy in his heart, there is a feeling of bullying a child, but Zhao Ruiying is still carefully looking for a place that can be used, soldiers take obedience to orders as their duty, not to mention that Wuxi is now in a disadvantaged position, even if it is strong, it is necessary to complete the task thoroughly, and then consider other things, with the fastest, most intense, and the least loss of their own means, to win the opponent.

Through the binoculars, looking at the enemy troops who kept entering, Zhao Ruiying shook his head again and again, before, he carried out a series of arrangements according to the information he knew, with his vision, he knew that the opponent had a large number of personnel, there were 90,000 people, and also took into account many plans, just the battle plan was made 7, not to win and defeat first, this is what a really mature officer did, if the opponent's attack was too fierce, more than imagined, he also formulated a turtle defense, step by step back, and introduced the opponent into the city, Trap the other party and gradually counterattack with the help of tunnels.

But now, everything is useless, the enemy rushed in one by one, did not do fire reconnaissance, did not do manual reconnaissance, just like inspection, leisurely strolled into Wuxi, and was extremely unfamiliar with the terrain, coupled with the guidance of the northwest, these troops were directly dispersed into divisions, or even regiments as small pieces, Zhao Ruiying knew that everything was settled, and this battle had been won before it was fought.
