Chapter 781: The Battle of Wuchang (2)
The 60th Army can be said to be the lifeblood of Long Yun. The six brigades and 12 regiments under Long Yun's command, which were originally fully organized, were completely reorganized before the 60 th Army was formed.
Therefore, the entire 60th Army can be said to be the entire elite of the Dian Army. When Lu Han came out this time, Long Yun had a private conversation with him for a long time. The combat effectiveness of the Wehrmacht's corps and group armies has been carefully analyzed.
Long Yun made it clear that if the Dian Army wants to have a place in the National Defense Force, then it must show its ability. That Commander-in-Chief Tu couldn't rub sand in his eyes, and if he wanted to get ahead, he had to exchange it for military merits.
This is also what the two sons of the Long Yun family learned in the National Defense University of the three eastern provinces, and the ranks of the two who came back from fighting on the Korean battlefield were all bloodstained, without a trace of falsehood.
The Commander-in-Chief and his Wehrmacht were born with a murderous aura. The Battle of Jinan achieved his prestige, but it was tens of thousands of corpses lying down.
In the subsequent battles, the continuous rise of the Wehrmacht was accompanied by continuous killings. It was the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and countless blood that created the Wehrmacht today.
Needless to say, the Wehrmacht's Army units were forced back to the 38th parallel by the Air Force's World War I over Korea. The Navy's recent battle in the Yellow Sea, despite its heavy losses, has shown the unique bloody prestige of the Wehrmacht.
It can be said that this is the basis of the entire Wehrmacht. Those officers who were promoted were all born through life and death and bloody battles on the battlefield.
In this military sequence, Long Yun is both emotional and palpitating. But in the end, he still felt that even this was better than being under the command of the government.
Unlike the government's attempts to annex openly and covertly, the Wehrmacht will make it clear to you directly in the open. Officials must study at the University of Political Science and Law of the three eastern provinces and intern in the three eastern provinces.
Officers are also required to go through combat and serve in the Wehrmacht. They put everything in the light and don't play with vanity. Everything is laid out, all the standards are quantified and transparent, and this is the hallmark of the Wehrmacht.
In this sequence, Long Yun felt that he was relieved.
Therefore, before coming out, Long Yun made it clear to Lu Han: This battle must show the prestige of the 60th Army, and the most important thing in the National Defense Force is the military exploits, and if it is killed, it will be prestige.
If the 60th Army wants to gain a position, it will exchange it for war exploits. This is what Long Rope once brought to his father, although Tu Qianjun did not say this to Long Rope Zeng, but he had already learned it in the study of Long Rope in the National Defense University.
And the dragon rope not only brought his father's situation to the National Defense Army, but also brought the equipment provided by the three eastern provinces. These include artillery of various calibers, as well as firearms and ammunition made in the three eastern provinces.
Long Yun understood Tu Qianjun's subtext: I gave you the things, and if you can fight the Sixty Army, it will be necessary to exist. Otherwise, what is a force that can't fight, what is it left to do?!
This is also Lu Han's sentence: If you can't win, revoke the number! Let's all go home and retire! The origin.
"Tell the brethren to open the opening so that the central army in Wuchang City can withdraw. That's our White Spoon mission. Lu Han said in a deep voice to the adjutant beside him: "Complete the task, let's eat meat." I can't complete the task, from the bottom of the firehead soldier to me all go home to retire! So as not to come out and lose the face of the Dian army! ”
"Yes!!" The adjutant replied loudly, and the man on the stretcher was silent. Lu Han sighed and let the man down.
"Command! The 182nd, 183rd, and 184th Divisions attacked the Japanese positions day and night, and there was no stop! Don't be overlooked! Artillery remnants...... All support, no mistakes! ”
"Yes!!" A staff officer beside Lu Han replied loudly.
After giving the order, Luhan walked to the observation port with a telescope to check the situation on the battlefield. The arrival of the 60th Army had a tremendous impact on the situation of the battle.
Originally, the Japanese army wanted to use the largest force to directly defeat Wuchang, but they did not expect the battle to turn into a stalemate. Hu Zongnan, Xue Yue and other troops on the periphery rushed to Wuhan regardless of their own defense areas.
The 60th Army, which emerged from Yunnan, was the biggest surprise, and the 38th Division, which they were fighting so fiercely, was forced to abandon its position. At this time, all the troops were concentrated outside Wuchang City, and the rest were deployed to resist the attack of the Central Army on the periphery.
"Road wolf!! After fighting for so long, Jingran hasn't taken Wuchang City yet, what are you all eating?! What does the Empire want you to do?! Bastard! Idiot!! ”
King Hatohiko of the Asaka Palace "Whoa~" directly overturned the table, and shouted at several commanders and division commanders in front of him: "Your Majesty has generously given us so much, and even allowed us to replenish our troops and weapons and ammunition. But don't you feel ashamed that we haven't taken the city until now?! ”
"Hail!!" Commander of the 10th Army, Heisuke Yanagawa and the 11th Division
Regiment Commander Munetake Yamamuro and Commander of the 3rd Division, Shin Fujita...... and so on, I didn't dare to reply.
King Hatohiko of Asakanomiya arrived in Wuhan some time ago, and he handed over all the battles in Nanjing to Matsui Ishine to command. And he himself arrived at the Wuhan battlefield in person, in order to be able to take Wuhan as soon as possible and completely defeat the national government.
Unfortunately, although he was personally on the battlefield, the progress of the war was still limited. The Japanese army wanted to block the central army on the periphery and attack Wuchang City, which was really a little overwhelming.
The central army of the entire inner and outer Wuchang City added up to nearly 700,000. And the Central Army in Wuchang City is the most trusted elite of Jiang Zhongzheng, and its combat effectiveness can be imagined.
Moreover, this war is related to the life and death of those high-ranking officials in Wuchang City. Therefore, the Japanese army rushed to hit a huge nail here. As a result, now they are unable to advance or retreat, and they are even rushed to the city by the 60th Army.
"There are some problems on the North China Front right now, and the Wehrmacht and the Tiger have broken through their white spoon defenses. That said, we're running out of time. King Hatohiko of the Asaka Palace took a deep breath and looked at the crowd and said in a deep voice.
"The established strategy of the War Department and the Reich was to drag the Wehrmacht to North China. After we have cleaned up South China and Central China, we will completely annihilate him. ”
"However, the North China Front has bought us so much time, and we have not yet taken Wuchang City. What do you think the military department and His Majesty will think of us?! The current situation is no longer something that the empire can stop if it wants to. This battle is related to the century-old national fortunes of the empire. ”
"The imperial competition is whether to rise on the basis of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, or to be defeated by them and collapse. It's all in your hands, and if you can't afford to take on such a heavy responsibility, then please don't occupy the position of the white spoon of the warriors who want to die for the Empire! ”
The words of King Hatohiko of the Morning Xiang Palace, the people who said it broke out in a cold sweat in their hearts! They kind of know that this time the military department and His Royal Highness the prince are really in a hurry.
has already begun to pull out the official hat, and it is obvious in these words: taking Wuchang City will be the completion of the empire's strategy. Everything is easy to say, if you can't take it...... "Sanyao!" I'll give you three more time at most, if you can't take Wuchang City. Then go back to Tokyo and explain to the military headquarters and Your Majesty! ”
"Hail!!" The commander of the Tenth Army, Yanagawa Heisuke, did not dare to slack off and answered loudly.
With the order of King Hatohiko of the Asaka Palace, the battle in Wuchang City became more intense. The Japanese heavy artillery group rumbled and bombarded the entire city.
And those Japanese infantry were even more frantically attacking Wuchang City under the pressure of the officers' white spoons, and the Japanese army, which was already crazy, now seemed to have no reason at all.
They roared and screamed and slaughtered into position. Countless twisted and broken corpses were intertwined in every part of Wuchang City. Now there are no so-called "residents" in Wuchang City. The people who were able to move around the city were soldiers from both sides.
The living residents took refuge in the bomb shelters of the Central Army. The young men were organized into support units and rushed to every gap in the position. Women, young and old, helped to care for the wounded.
The entire city has been turned into a bloody Shura field, littered with corpses and stumps. The intensity of the fighting was such that neither side had a chance to collect the corpses of those soldiers who had died in battle.
In the dim sun, the two men fought in this bloody, severed, and shattered city. Crumbling walls, smoky collapsed houses, and broken parts scattered everywhere.
"Boom, boom...... The sound of gunfire and roars became the theme ......of Wuchang City. In addition to this, there is constant wailing and screaming.
The Japanese used artillery to break through the gaps in the positions and tried to rush up. But they were immediately met with light and heavy machine guns and machetes on the side of the Central Army.
The Japanese army was repulsed and greeted by Japanese artillery fire. The artillery fire would engulf the soldiers on the position who had just finished fighting, and when the artillery bombardment was over, the Japanese attacked again.
Cycle after cycle, both sides are exhausted. But they are all holding on.
Wuchang City is now able to continue to fight the soldiers of the original Central Army, which has been sharply reduced to less than 50,000 soldiers. The rest are almost all drawn from the original young men of Wuchang City.
"I want to support...... I can't fight without support......" Yao Junmin looked at his battalion commander with his godless eyes, and he couldn't remember what his battalion commander was called.
Several battalion commanders have been killed in successive battles, is this the fifth or the sixth?! Yao Junmin really doesn't remember, he only knows that after so many battalion commanders died, he still survived.
"Battalion commander, I have eight brothers on my position. We can't fight without support......"
"There is support, just me." The battalion commander's eyes were like death, and he looked at Yao Junmin and smiled: "You still have eight, and our battalion can have about twenty now......" (To be continued)
