The armored troops crossed the river without any pressure. The two newly formed engineering battalions built two pontoons in half an hour.
When the four Japanese reconnaissance planes returned, the first batch of 50 anti-air machine guns and two companies of anti-air soldiers crossed the river to set up defenses.
Within two kilometers of the floating bridge, there were 100 anti-air machine guns, 64 88mm anti-air cannons, and countless general-purpose machine guns.
Don't underestimate these machine guns that were mainly used to attack the ground. With the performance of the Japanese fighter jets, these machine guns were a great threat to them.
It was still the same problem. If they wanted to drop the bomb accurately and blow up the pontoon bridge, the Japanese could only lower their altitude and ensure that they dropped the bomb from an altitude of about 500 meters. Even so, they could not achieve a 100% hit rate.
However, before they reached this distance, at least a company of 16 anti-air cannons, no less than 20 anti-air machine guns, and 100 general-purpose machine guns would launch a three-in-one anti-air fire network to intercept them.
If the Japanese had launched a concentrated assault, there might have been some fish that escaped the net, but now…
The scattered Japanese soldiers were beaten down before they could even reach a kilometer away from the pontoon bridge.
Seeing how weak the Japanese were, Chen Zhihua started to worry.
The war had just begun. The Japanese had just opened up the battlefield in Shanghai and had not even completely established themselves.
If he fought too fiercely and chased the Japanese out of the sea, then if he wanted to fight the Japanese again, he could only go north.
However, if they went north, they would encounter a new problem. At present, the Japanese forces were mainly deployed in a few regions. At the same time, in addition to the war in Shanghai, the Japanese also attacked Shanxi. In less than half a month, there would be news of the victory at Pingxing Pass.
Shanxi was a good place, but Chen Zhihua tragically discovered that the armored infantry division he had built could only display its greatest combat effectiveness in the plains. Once he went to the mountains, even if the Japanese could not take him down, he might not be able to fight as happily as he was now.
Then the only way left was to attack Beijing and Tianjin directly, and then go through Shanhaiguan directly to the northeast, directly fighting the Japanese Kwantung Army.
This could be considered the best situation. It might attract the main attention of the Japanese to the northeast, and then the two sides would engage in a large-scale decisive battle in the northeast.
However, there was also a possibility that after the Japanese suffered a huge loss, they chose to use the divine skill of avoiding the edge.
He would retreat from the northeast and then transfer all the Guandong Army to Shanghai. When he pulled his troops back, they would reoccupy the northeast and make him exhausted.
Unless he could build more troops and deploy them in the northeast and Shanghai respectively, and even deploy defenses in Guangzhou, he could prevent the Japanese from using a diversion.
"No! "You can't do this..." Chen Zhihua shook his head violently.
His greatest reliance was the system, and the system's greatest reliance was the points. Without points, what was the point of playing?
Even if he wanted to do it, he had to earn enough points before going to other battlefields.
Now that he had happily chased the Japanese into the sea, it felt good, but what about after that?
Don't the troops need points to go north? So many pieces of equipment didn't need maintenance, soldiers didn't need pay, and vehicles didn't need to drink oil.
These were all points. Chen Zhihua did a simple calculation. Maintaining such a division of troops, based on the current level of combat, would require about 800,000 to 1 million points.
Even if he used his points sparingly, it would be over in half a year at most. Without a large number of Japanese to send warmth, what would he do?
After the Battle of Magic City, it would be Nanjing, so Nanjing was the bottom line. They must not let the Japanese enter Nanjing. Then, what should they do in the middle to ensure that China's losses were minimized, but their own interests were also maximized?
"Long Wenzhang!" Chen Zhihua looked at Long Wenzhang, who was still enjoying the good show of the air defense soldiers fighting the Japanese aerial soldiers.
"General!" Long Wenzhang ran over with a sly look on his face. His eyes were still looking at the sky reluctantly. This was a rare good show…
"Do you think the Japanese can block the charge of our division?”Chen Zhihua frowned and asked. He was under a lot of pressure.
"General, don't worry. If the Japanese can stop them, I, Long Wenzhang, and the three regimental commanders below me will tear off their heads and make them your chamber pots.”Hearing that Chen Zhihua was actually worried about this matter, Long Wenzhang was instantly annoyed.
What kind of joke was this?
Each platoon was equipped with a semi-automatic rifle, a general-purpose machine gun, and each platoon was equipped with a heavy machine gun and 80mm mortars. Each regiment was equipped with nearly 200 tanks, and the entire division was equipped with an artillery regiment with heavy artillery and rocket launchers. Although they had not officially shown their might, could they not first see how powerful the 88mm anti-aircraft guns were?
With such a powerful firepower configuration, did the Japanese grow up eating sh * t? Even if they grew up eating sh * t, they would definitely not be able to withstand it.
Hearing Long Wenzhang's assurance, Chen Zhihua became even more depressed.
Sighing helplessly, he patted Long Wenzhang's shoulder with a solemn expression and said,""Let me tell you this. Our division, as well as the subsequent equipment and supplies, do not have as much as we want. The big shots behind us are not brainless enough to sponsor us without asking for it. Before we left, they gave me the most basic and only request. They do not care about how many victories we have on the battlefield. They only care about how many Japanese we can kill.”
Long Wenzhang was a little surprised. He had never heard of such a bizarre request.
However, since you guys are paying for the equipment, I'd better listen to your requests quietly first…
"That's why we can't just look at what's in front of us. If we chase the Japanese out of the sea, we won't be able to fulfill their demands. Our supplies will be greatly affected, so I won't talk to you about some of the important things.
This war must be fought, but we can't just fight it like a fool. There are less than 200,000 Japanese soldiers in Shanghai now, and they can't satisfy the appetite of those old men. Therefore, we have to think of a way to attract more Japanese soldiers to reinforce the battlefield in Shanghai. When necessary, we can even pretend to be defeated and retreat to lure them to the back. Then, we can launch a sudden attack and take them away in one wave.”
(Speaking of which, you guys are really fierce. In the blink of an eye, the 500 flowers are almost here, but there aren't many evaluation votes. How embarrassing. I'll work hard to write tonight. Muah!)）
