4.17 Make a name for yourself

A 99th Division can annihilate nearly half of the enemy, and if the 88th Division and the 87th Division are also launched at the same time, I am afraid that the current situation will be much more favorable!

The reaction speed of China's summit organs is still too slow!

Missed such a fighter in vain!

General Zhang sighed deeply, and he began to try his best to make up for today's mistakes in tomorrow's attack arrangement!

It is impossible for such a victorious division as the 99th Division to withdraw, so let Huang Haoran be the main attacker!

Jiang Baili! Jiang Baili! You're really good little brother!

No wonder you insisted on stuffing him into the battle sequence on the front line in Shanghai, I, Zhang, complained about you at the beginning, but now I owe you a favor!

General Zhang and his staff officers seized the time to revise the offensive arrangement, and planned to launch an attack on the Japanese army after the bombardment of the air force on the 14th, and the offensive route was from Shanghai North Railway Station and Baoshan Bridge along the line from Hengbang to Shajing Port, Railway Bridge, Jinjiazhai, and Chunjiang Road, focusing on the west of Yangshupu Port to the Hongkou Japanese Army Headquarters. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info to encircle and annihilate the Japanese marines after pressing them to the Suzhou River and the Huangpu River.

The specific deployment is: the 99th Division serves as the main attack on the left flank, with the 8th Artillery Regiment providing fire support, of which the 302nd Brigade attacks in the direction of Hongkou, the 301st Brigade mainly attacks the Marine Corps Headquarters, the Japanese command organization, and the 87th and 88th Divisions serve as assists on the right flank, with the 3rd Artillery Regiment providing fire cover, except for one regiment to defend Wusong, the rest of the troops take the Jiangwan Stadium as a position, capture the key points such as Hujiang University, the Navy Playground and the Navy Club on the periphery of the Japanese army, and then concentrate their forces to take the Gongda Yarn Mill.

The 1st Battalion of the 10th Artillery Regiment was deployed to Dachang to prepare for a fire strike on the Japanese fortifications (the battalion was equipped with a 32-caliber 150 mm howitzer produced by Rheinmetall, when the Chinese army required that the howitzer must have a range of 15 km, while the German sFH18 howitzer equipped with a 30 x caliber had a range of only 13 km, so Rheinmetall specially designed a 32-caliber 150 mm howitzer for China to meet the needs of the Chinese army).

The 1st Regiment of the Security Corps was under the command of the 99th Division, and the rest of the main forces were assembled in Jinan New Village. Zhong Song's Brigade took one regiment to Dachang to serve as a guard, under the command of the 87th Division, and the remaining one regiment defended Beixinjing Town, and the 169th Brigade of the 57th Division carried out a warning on Huxi along the line from Lincoln Road to Qiujiang Bridge in Fahua Town.

The reason why the attack plan has only been adjusted to focus on the 99th Division is because General Zhang thought at the beginning of the battle that Huang Haoran's 99th Division was just the enthusiasm of young people, and at most it could only be used to fight the first battle, and in the end, it would have to rely on veteran troops such as the 88th Division and the 87th Division to carry out the main attack.

The performance of the 99th Division on the 13th became Huang Haoran's most powerful counterattack to the outside world!

In the past, there were always rumors in the Nanjing Ministry of National Defense that the 99th Division spent a lot of money in the officialdom to get a "B-up" assessment result, and it was only through such fraud that it was able to become an army.

In Nanjing's mind, the 99th Division is also a unit that can only arrange scenes, combat effectiveness? Still don't mention it!

Nanjing's belittling remarks about the 99th Division now have another meaning in General Zhang's eyes!

General Zhang felt that it was probably because the officials of the Ministry of National Defense failed to ask for bribes that the comments of the 99th Division were suppressed as "B"!

If all the divisions of the Chinese army with an assessment score of "B above" can have such combat effectiveness as the 99th Division, how can little Japan dare to come to China to toss?

Nanjing's Ministry of National Defense is also a mixed bag, and there is chaos......

Chief Gu sneezed vigorously in the War Hall of the Ministry of National Defense in Nanjing!

He and Jiang Baili were the chief officers of the 99th Division......

Gu Mosan didn't expect his old friend General Zhang to turn his suspicions on him again!

If you want to blame, you can only blame the officialdom of the Republic of China for too many bad habits!

If someone suddenly soars, most people will guess what kind of bottom trade!

Mr. Gu received a lot of gold bars from Huang Haoran, but most of them were used to deal with other people, and Jiang Baili was taking care of his little brother, and he also had something to say on his wife's side, Mr. Gu would not ask Huang Haoran for a small advantage to take advantage of!

From the 99th Division and the Japanese army to the present, General Gu's ass has not even touched the stool for more than ten hours, and one team has been circling on the edge of the map and the sand table!

Those senior staff officers of the Ministry of National Defense, who are usually full of military jargon and talk about clouds and mountains and fog, are now closing their mouths one by one and starting to pretend to be dumb!

Don't look at the fact that Nanjing has to promote a lot of generals every year, but there are only a few people who can really come and go!

The rest of the people are either politicians or veteran ruffians, and if they are asked to fight a civil war and scrape the ground, they can still be competent, but now they are facing the modern Japanese army, and these wastes with generals and gold stars are useless!

Useless people also have to come to work, President Gu is afraid that these unlearned and unskilled "-stirring sticks" will be bad in the middle, so he specially asked Jiang Baili to arrange a small conference room, and stuff these "famous generals" into it to drink tea and fart, which can be regarded as a quiet ear!

The highest authorities sat on the second floor of the war hall in military uniforms, and every half an hour they came to ask General Gu for a report on the battle in Shanghai, and it seemed that the old man attached great importance to the first battle since the high-profile War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression!

Fortunately, Jiang Baili was on the side to help support, so that President Gu would not be exhausted!

General Zhang's telegram asking for merit for the 99th Division was sent for the second time, but in the face of such a "brilliant" record of the 99th Division, General Gu couldn't help but keep beating the drum in his heart!

In one day, the Japanese army was able to overcome several lines of defense, killing one Japanese soldier and destroying more than 2,000 enemies, and the casualties were not counted!

Chief Gu took this telegram and compared the image of the 99th Division in his mind, how did he think that this battle merit was blown out by Huang Haoran!

Shanghai's little devils are not soft persimmons! The difficulties of the first Battle of Songhu are still vivid, and you Huang Haoran have made a "big victory" as soon as you come up now!

This is really greedy!

Are you Huang Youchen going to die?!

General Zhang is too, such a serious invitation to send such a telegram, I think the command system in Shanghai is also a mess!

Huang Youchen is Jiang Baili's little brother, and President Gu plans to ask Jiang Baili what he means!

Unexpectedly, Jiang Baili replied with three words:

"Hand it in!"

Chief Gu stubbornly handed over the telegram to the highest authority.

After reading the message, the highest authorities were very happy, and hurriedly asked General Gu to verify the situation with General Zhang, and it seems that the highest authorities are also a little unsure in their hearts!

Less than ten minutes later, General Zhang's reply was sent along with the battle report of the whole day!

The core content of the battle report of the 9th Army is one sentence!

"The 99th Division has achieved brilliant results!"

After receiving General Zhang's affirmative reply, there was jubilation in the War Hall of the Ministry of National Defense!

The highest authority also smiled, and said through his mouth with dentures:

"The Japanese army's combat strength is so clumsy! The 99th Division's battle today can be cold and the courage of the Japanese invaders! ”

The highest authorities are so happy, and the people below naturally know to pander, and the icing on the cake gushes endlessly......

Jiang Baili and Chief Gu frowned at the same time.

Shanghai is just a small victory!

With nearly 100,000 troops combined to attack less than 10,000 Japanese troops, it would be abnormal if there were no results!

It's just that the good news of the 99th Division came too early and too big!

Huang Haoran's record has given the highest authorities a shot of stimulant! The old man's expectations for the war in Shanghai have also reached the highest point!

When he learned that Huang Haoran had sent the spoils of battle to foreign reporters for display, the highest authorities couldn't stop nodding their heads and praised repeatedly:

"Huang Youchen is not only outstanding in military attainments, but also has such a political sense, which is rare! Rare! ”

This compliment is nothing for others to say, but the weight of the highest authority is not ordinary!

You must know that the highest authorities have always asked military personnel not to intervene in politics!

Now the praise of Huang Haoran has a hint of special treatment in it!

The Supreme Authorities ordered the 99th Division to be rewarded with 50,000 yuan in legal currency by the Ministry of National Defense, 20,000 yuan in private currency by the highest authorities, and awarded Huang Haoran the Order of Baoding of the second class.

General Gu was not far behind, and immediately said that the Ministry of Defense would also reward 10,000 yuan in legal currency!

The Political Department also immediately said that it would vigorously publicize the exploits of the 99th Division to the people!

Huang Haoran's 99th Division is destined to become famous in Songhu!
