Chapter 51: The Crease of the Map
6.51 Map Creases
The happy time of Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao, the commander of the 18th Division of the Japanese Army, ended at once with the arrival of Huang Haoran, and the senior officers were all taken to the guillotine by Huang Haoran The 1st Army suddenly began to play with devils like a stimulant, the 1st Army is Hu Zongnan's family after all, and it is really necessary to fight for his life or still have some combat effectiveness, in the face of the sudden increase in the defensive intensity of the 1st Army and the counterattacks one after another, the commander of the 35th Brigade and the 35th Brigade Brigade Major General Hiratsuka Province muttered in his heart, there are lessons from the 114th Division, The commander of the 3rd Brigade of Hiratsuka Province did not dare to be careless, he quickly reported this new change to the division commander, Lieutenant General Ushijima Sadao, and for the sake of safety, the chief of staff, Mei Oto, suggested that the commander of the Ushijima Sadao Division let the 35th Brigade take it away and see the movements of the Nanjing garrison first. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ushijima Sadao was very annoyed and accepted the advice of the chief of staff Koto Megumi Daisa, the 35th Brigade changed from offensive to defensive, and the situation of the 1st Army and the 35th Brigade was instantly reversed.
Huang Haoran through Li Tiejun, He Daru and a few regiment commanders who withdrew to Shangfang were all controlled in the military headquarters of the 1st Army, and now the officers who commanded the 1st Army have become Shen Laoer, and Shen Laoer was very dissatisfied with the performance of the 1st Army in the counterattack, and he complained vigorously that if it was replaced by his 99th Division, Pingzuka Province would have been surrounded long ago, which is like the 1st Army tossing and turning so far has only recovered eighty percent of the position, and as soon as the 35th Brigade contracted, Hu Zongnan's soldiers could not attack.
Li Tiejun didn't dare to talk to Shen Yuanlong, now he is the meat on the chopping board, Huang Haoran can cut a few knives if he wants to, or save his life!
Li Wen's fate was similar to Li Tiejun's, Huang Haoran didn't even go to the division headquarters of the 32nd Division, but just asked Xu Xinghua to take the 2 battalions of the 99th Division to go, and the 32nd Division immediately began to cooperate with the 78th Division.
The current battle situation is a stalemate situation, the Nanjing garrison of Chunhua City lost by Li Tiejun is impossible to recapture, and the Japanese have no way to take the defense line from Taoyuan and Tianjing Mountain to Fangshan, with the restoration of the front-line position and the retraction of the 35th Brigade, the gunfire on the front line began to become sparse, and the 35th Brigade and the 1st Army were busy reinforcing the fortifications and repairing the wounds, waiting for another battle.
The commander of Ushijima Sadao's division was very dissatisfied with such a calm front, and he finally let his 18th division rush to the front of Tani Shofu's 6th division, and then stopped? Isn't that giving Tani a chance?
The commander of Ushijima Sadao's division got the latest news from the military headquarters of the 10th Army, Gu Shoufu went crazy at Moling Pass, the four main forces under the 6th Division took turns to fight, the defense line of the Nanjing Garrison was already crumbling, but fortunately, the straight-line distance of the attack route of the 6th Division was much farther than that of the 18th Division, and it was an area heavily defended by the Nanjing Garrison, and the 18th Division was still in the leading position.
However, the commander of Ushijima Sadao Division also got a not-so-good news, while he was staring at the 6th Division, the 9th and 3rd Divisions of the Central Route Army broke through Tangshan at a very fast speed, and the vanguard of the 9th Division had already appeared near the Kirin Gate!
It seems that all the commanders of the Japanese divisions on the front line are very attached to who can take the honor of being the first to storm the city of Nanjing, and the competition for the march in the Central China Dispatch Army has been moved to the table, and Commander Matsui Ishine and Yanagawa Heisuke maintain a tacit attitude towards their respective subordinates, and this competition between the Shanghai Dispatch Army and the 10th Army is in full swing.
The 35th Brigade Corps, which took the initiative to stop the attack, did suffer several counterattacks from the 1st Army, but most of these counterattacks were useless efforts by the 1st Army, and the 35th Brigade Brigade Commander Major General Hiratsuka Province reported to the commander of Ushijima Sadao Division that the Nanjing Garrison did not seem to have any big moves, but more like the 1st Army mustered up the last courage to come to a thunderous and rainy fight, and the prudence of Chief of Staff Koto Megumi Osaku was that the 35th Brigade lost the best opportunity to break through the first line of Taoyuan and Tianjing Mountain, What the 18th Division needs to do now is to quickly recover the losses caused by the cessation of the offensive, and the commander of the Ushijima Sadao Division has also strengthened the 22nd Cavalry Brigade of Koike Masaji Nakasa's 35th Brigade, and he needs Hiratsuka to do some results!
The forward positions of the 1st Army were soon lively again, the commander of the 3rd Brigade of Hiratsuka Province used his 124th Wing to storm the positions of the 78th Division, and the 116th Wing attacked the junction of the 78th and 32nd Divisions.
At this time, the sky was already bright, and the Japanese Air Force, which had rested a little, also began to join the battle group, and the 78th Division lost nearly 1,000 people under the first wave of attack by the Japanese army, because the tactical literacy of the officers and soldiers of the 1st Army was far inferior to that of the 99th Army, so many of Shen Laoer's correct playing methods were implemented below in a mess, and the battalion commander of a battalion actually ordered the cooking squad to make a fire and cook on the line of fire, and as a result, the cooking smoke attracted a heavy artillery of the devil, and a battalion went to two-thirds of the way at that time, and then was rushed by the devil's infantry cavalry, If it weren't for Shen Laoer's timely replenishment of a battalion to get it, the result would be unimaginable, and Shen Laoer, who was seriously affected by this battalion, naturally vented to Li Tiejun again, and Li Tiejun, who was used to being despised by Shen Laoer, could only shake his head and smile bitterly now.
He Daru's face was not as thick as Li Tiejun's, he finally broke out in Shen Laoer's contempt, He Daru blushed and said to Shen Laoer: "Master Shen! We are also friendly troops anyway, and Commander Li's rank is still bigger than yours, so I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to be so cynical, right? ”
Where did Shen Lao Er eat He Daru's set, he said to He Daru with disdain: "What? The army is rotten and people don't want to say it? Your 1st Army is not as good as our 99th Army! I don't know what kind of goods my subordinates are? What are you pretending to be confused!? ”
He Daru was furious by Shen Laoer's words, although he had the intention of preserving his strength, he was also a soldier after all, and now he was stepped on by Shen Laoer like this, how did you tell him to endure it? He Daru shouted at the officers of the 99th Army in the room: "The little devil is so powerful, what can you do for me?" Don't say that your 99th Army is invincible in the world! Didn't you retreat all the way from Shanghai to Nanjing? They are all defeated generals! What a god! ”
"Fuck! Lao Tzu is winning the battle and turning in! If it weren't for you rotten troops, little Japan would have been driven into the sea a long time ago! Dare to compare with Lao Tzu's troops! You're not afraid of panic! Shen Lao Er also lost his temper, saying that the 99 Army is not equivalent to talking about him Shen Yuanlong, which is equivalent to saying that his eldest brother Huang Haoran, seeing Shen Lao Er raised his whip and prepared to start work on He Daru, at this time Huang Haoran stopped Shen Lao Er with a drink:
"Stop! With this kung fu, it's better to leave some strength to fight devils! Chief of Staff Ho! Needless to say, what your 1st Army is doing today is not authentic! You should think about how to atone for your sins! Division Commander Shen, the little devil seems to want to separate the 78th Division and the 32nd Division, the attack on the 32nd Division is getting weaker and weaker, I asked Xu Xinghua to try to send a battalion to move closer to the 78th Division, but as soon as he came out of the position, he was beaten back by the devil, and the 35th Brigade was going to take the 78th Division! ”
Shen Lao Er was attracted by Huang Haoran's words, and Li Tiejun and He Daru and several regiment commanders of the 1st Army also walked to the side of the map, they wanted to see what Huang Haoran, the "winning general", had some skills.
"Commander! The devil is attacking very fiercely in the 78th Division, and it's not a matter for us to be beaten so passively, and the end of the refueling tactic is to throw away all the troops and positions, I see that it is better to concentrate on the little devil to be ruthless! I think it's still an old tactic! Roundabout Attack! What does the Commander think? ”
Shen Lao Er is now being cultivated by Huang Haoran and also has some tactical awareness, especially Huang Haoran's tried and tested roundabout tactics, Shen Lao Er is even more respectful! He Daru, who was standing opposite Shen Laoer, let out a cold snort after listening to Shen Laoer's words, and he made a sound from his nostrils, obviously looking down on Shen Laoer's idea:
"Master Shen! What you're talking about is inevitably too spacey, isn't it? Now the hundreds of thousands of troops of our Nanjing garrison are fighting together around the city of Nanjing and the devils, the 78th Division's position is a battlefield on both sides, there is the 83rd Army on the left, and the 74th Army on the right, and there are at least no less than one brigade of Japanese troops on the opposite side of these two troops. Do you want the heads of the belligerent troops to fly over? ”
He Daru was obviously paying tribute to Shen Laoer, and the officers of the 1st Army who had been relieved of their military power were also happy, and they were very happy that He Daru helped them get back one percent.
Huang Haoran took in the expressions of these people, Shen Lao Er was still a little hot, he was more than brave in battle, and his wisdom was insufficient, although He Daru's words were swordsman, but they were all actual situations, it was really not easy to attack the 35th Brigade in a roundabout way, first of all, this breakthrough point was very difficult to find, it was necessary to be able to pass through the large army and not let the Japanese army find out, is there such a place on this map?
Seeing that Huang Haoran was silent, He Daru was even more proud, it seems that this "winning general" is nothing more than that, the two great victories in Songhu and Nanjing may be just luck, this is also reasonable, the 99th Army has been in army for less than three months, if this new army can suddenly surpass the old qualified troops like the 1st Army, it is unreasonable, and now the performance of this division commander Shen and Commander Huang is normal. He Daru felt that he was about to see the truth about the mysterious journey of the 99th Army, and he suddenly felt a little inexplicably excited......
"How big is the devil officer's briefcase?"
Just when He Daru was thinking wildly, Huang Haoran suddenly came up with such a sentence out of nowhere, and the officers of the 1st Army present were all stunned, don't they want to detour the tactics of the Japanese army now? Why did it suddenly get to the devil officer's briefcase?
However, Shen Laoer, the rectum, did not hesitate at all, and directly used his hand to show Huang Haoran, and Huang Haoran asked after reading it: "Are you sure?" The Japanese general's briefcase is also the same size? ”
Shen Lao Er replied proudly Huang Haoran is so big, Japanese general, the 99th Army has killed several! When he said these words, Shen Lao Er's heart was so cool! Big brother is big brother! This quiet sentence killed the bastards of the 1st Army! You haven't seen such a high-end product as a Japanese general, have you?
He Daru's momentum suddenly shortened under Shen Laoer's provocative gaze, there is no way, the exploits of the 99th Army are clearly displayed there, and there is no unit in the entire Central Army that can keep pace with the 99th Army in terms of combat performance, even the teaching corps and a few German armor divisions have to bow down, not to mention the 1st Army!
He Daru couldn't help but think angrily in his heart, what kind of ability is this? Is it interesting to talk about the past?
Huang Haoran was still not at ease with Shen Laoer, a frizzy guy, he asked Shen Laoer to get him a physical object to come back, and it happened that Xu Zilong, the commander of the first company of the special service battalion, was at the door of the house, and he had a captured Japanese general's briefcase, which was the stuff of Major General Okawa, the commander of the Japanese Shanghai Marine Corps, and now it has become Xu Zilong's souvenir.
Shen Lao Er almost returned to the table with Xu Zilong's souvenir in the action of displaying treasures, Huang Haoran took it and opened it to see the size inside, and then asked from the guards for a military map captured from the Japanese army, which was picked up from the ruins of the 114th Division's division headquarters, and part of the map was overfired. It became a little yellow, but fortunately it did not affect the use, Huang Haoran began to fold the map after unfolding it, and soon the map became a thick stack again, and then Huang Haoran picked up the map and put it in his briefcase and took it out, and then he said: "This map should be folded into such a size in the hands of the devil, and it is quite convenient to put it in the briefcase when marching and fighting, what do you think?" ”
This time it was Li Tiejun who answered first, and he smiled at Huang Haoran flatteringly, and then said: "I think it must be like this, this size is very suitable......"
Shen Lao Er and He Daru asked in unison: "That's it, what's the use?" After saying that, the two of them looked at each other, and then they both puffed up and stopped talking.
Huang Haoran pressed the corner of the folded map and then opened it, then he took out a magnifying glass and stared at the creases of the map to observe carefully, and soon, he moved his gaze to the vicinity of Taoyuan and Tianjing Mountain.
There happened to be a crack passing through the left side of Taoyuan, Huang Haoran unfolded the map with his hand, and found a place called Yu Kai in the fold, if you don't look carefully, no one will notice the existence of Yu Kun, this is the junction of the 1st Army and the 66th Army.
Huang Haoran patted the map vigorously, then looked at the officers in the room and pointed to the location of this fold and said, "Let's start from here!" Attack from the cracks in the map! Give the 35 brigade a hard time! ”
He Daru listened to Huang Haoran's words, and his brain exploded! Attack from the cracks in the map! Absolutely!
No wonder Huang Haoran asked for the Japanese general's briefcase just now, He Daru thought at first that Huang Haoran was showing off the achievements of the 99th Army, but now he knows that Huang Haoran is looking for places that the Japanese will also ignore!
Map creases! It's exactly where it's most overlooked!
Officers who command the war like to fight against the map, but because of the need to carry the map around, it is necessary to often fold the map into the briefcase, once the map is folded more times, there will be a series of cracks, due to visual obstacles and light refraction, the place where the map folds are often forgotten, the place where the folds are more likely to appear, the more frequently used the map, the more likely it is to appear such a situation, and Japan's senior officers, just like to use the map!
This Commander Huang actually used the opponent's habits and small details to calculate the opponent! Such people are really terrible!
He Daru's sweat came out first! Huang Haoran saw He Daru secretly wiping his sweat, and his evaluation of He Daru also raised a notch, and only He Daru was the only officer present who understood Huang Haoran's intentions, and now Shen Lao Er and Li Tiejun are still stupid!
In their opinion, they must think that Huang Haoran said something very strange, right?
This He Daru is still a smart person, but he is just like Xie Wendong, and this cleverness is used in crooked places......
"Commander Huang! What do you mean by that? "The person who asked the question was Li Tiejun, although Shen Lao Er didn't understand it, but he was better than Li Tiejun in one thing, that is, he absolutely believed in Huang Haoran, and if he didn't understand, he wouldn't understand! Wouldn't there be a staff officer to explain? In short, as long as it's the big brother's idea, it's going to be fine! He Shen Lao Er only needs to execute it!
Huang Haoran glanced at Li Tiejun, who was full of question marks, and then said to He Daru: "Chief of Staff He!" Your military seat is questioning, it's time for you, the chief of staff, to do something......"
Next is the time for He Daru to explain to the officers present, and when He Daru's words are finished, the officers of the 1st Army look at Huang Haoran as if they have seen a ghost!
Planted in the hands of such a person, it is not wronged! Not wronged! Glorious very!
This is the common idea in the heads of several officers of the 1st Army!
The size of the 35th Division should not be too large, after all, now that China and Japan are already fighting fiercely in one place, what the Nanjing Garrison is now using is just a small bad habit of the Japanese army, and the maneuver of a large force cannot escape the reconnaissance planes in the sky even if it is not discovered by the Japanese Army, so this unit must be very capable!
Huang Haoran finally chose the first special battalion and the first part of the 99th Division, plus one battalion each of the 1st Army and the 10th Pre-division, a joint force that survived.
Huang Haoran felt that the 99th Army was already big enough, and what was needed now was to divide some of the honor among other troops, and in addition, letting the 1st Army and the 10th Division participate in such an important operation was also an opportunity to buy people's hearts, and many troops would certainly be crippled and scattered in the First Battle of Nanjing, and now establishing a tall image of the 99th Army in the minds of these troops is also conducive to poaching and reorganization in the future, which is a method of killing two birds with one stone.
There is only one goal for this combined force, and that is the brigade headquarters of the 35 brigade regiment!
