Golden Mountain Guard, National Defense Army camp.
rumble ~
The sound of the engines rang out. All kinds of trucks were pulling the cannons in formation, and the soldiers were carrying guns to transport ammunition and supplies. The tense atmosphere before the arrival of the war had already permeated the military camp.
This battle was not an ambush, but a head-on battle with hundreds of thousands of Japanese.
Victory meant survival, defeat meant death!
On the stage.
Lu Tian leaned against the guardrail and pondered. Behind him, the senior officers led by Lin Zhan stood in a row.
"Lin Zhan, how are the arrangements?"
"Commander-in-chief, the raid on Rainbow Airport is going very well. If nothing goes wrong, we will be able to occupy the airport tonight.”
"Don't let your guard down. Iwane Matsui is not a fool. His main forces are gathered in Jiangqiao, Beixinjing, and Caojiadu. If we want to control Rainbow Airport, we have to take back these strategic locations.”
Lin Zhan nodded lightly." I know. The battle plan includes an attack on the Jiangqiao area. The national army is also ready. With the 150,000 soldiers of the two armies of the middle army, they will cooperate with the national defense force to attack. If nothing goes wrong, they will be able to tear apart Matsui Ikeine's defensive position in three hours.”
"That's right. If you can't defeat 40,000 Japanese with 200,000 people and two heavy artillery regiments, you can kill yourself.”
After saying that, Lu Tian took off his gloves and lit a cigarette. He took a few deep puffs and ordered.
"Let's move. End the battle before nightfall!”
"Yes, sir!"
……
Minhang.
Ever since the 10th army was completely wiped out at the Golden Mountain Guards 12 days ago, the 3rd division and the Zhong Teng Division had started to retreat. The 9th army didn't attack either, and just stood there silently.
But today, everything was about to change.
At 10 AM, the 1st and 2nd Infantry Divisions of the Internal Defense Army, a Heavy Artillery Regiment of the 6th Heavy Artillery Division, and an Air Defense Artillery Regiment set off from the Golden Mountain Guards. After a three-hour journey, they arrived at the back of the 9th Army.
When countless trucks, three-wheeled vehicles, and jeeps appeared in front of the Ninth Army, Commander-in-Chief Zhu Shaoliang was shocked.
Wasn't this too extravagant?
The 9th Army was considered the best of the best. The 72nd, 78th, 71st, and 8th armies under their command were all directly under the command of the central army. The quality of their soldiers and their weapons were not bad.
However, compared to the National Defense Army, they were practically beggars.
"Commander-in-chief, are there really two divisions?”
Huang Jie, commander of the 8th army, smacked his lips." I feel like these two divisions have more cannons than our entire army. They're really rich!"”
"Who says so? They're all 105 caliber and above. There are roughly two to three hundred of them. Where did Lu Tian get them?”
The commander of the 72nd division, Sun Yuanliang, was also very envious. The 88th division, which he was most proud of, felt like nothing in front of the National Defense Army.
Comparisons were infuriating!
Zhu Shaoliang, who was standing at the front, was not jealous. Instead, he was very happy.
"The good days of the Japanese are coming. They used to bully us with weapons and equipment. Now, the National Defense Force will let these dwarves know what it means to suppress us with firepower.”
Hahahahaha ~
Hearing this, everyone could not help but laugh heartily. After being suppressed for two to three months, they could finally vent their anger.
As they spoke, the National Defense Force had already arrived.
Squeak ~
He Yufei, the commander of the 1st Infantry Division, Wang Kai, the commander of the 2nd Infantry Division, and a few other deputy commanders jumped off the jeep and walked towards Zhu Shaoliang and the others.
Pa ~
Salute!
"Commander Zhu, we are the 1st and 2nd division commanders of the Internal Defense Army, He Yufei and Wang Kai.”
Zhu Shaoliang returned the greeting with a smile." Generals, please don't stand on ceremony. The Ninth Army will do their best to cooperate with us in this counterattack. Now, let's discuss the attack plan. If we take too long, I'm worried that the devils on the other side will notice."”
"Sure!"
Time waited for no one, so everyone spread out the map on the spot to discuss the battle plan.
Zhu Shaoliang, who was most familiar with the terrain and battlefield situation of this area, spoke first. He pointed at the map and introduced it.
"Opposite them are the Wei Nation's 3rd division, the Zhongteng Division, a brigade from the 101st division, and the puppet army's Yu Zhishan Brigade, a total of 60,000 people.”
"The main positions are at Longbai, Qibao, and Jiuting. If you want to completely take over the airport, you have to eliminate these 60,000 Japanese as quickly as possible.”
He Yufei extended four fingers.
"Including the two artillery regiments, there are 40,000. But in my opinion, it's too easy to eliminate these 60,000 devils.”
？
Simple?
Zhu Shaoliang and the others could not help but be a little angry.
Did they really think that the Japanese were weak?
Seeing that everyone was puzzled, he pointed at the map and explained.
"The devils made a fatal mistake, and that was that they did not build a strong defense.”
" They probably didn't think of defending before the 10th army was destroyed. After they stopped attacking, they knew that the main army was coming to support them, so they didn't think of building any fortifications, so…"
He Yufei pointed at the armored group consisting of T34 and Tiger tanks that suddenly appeared not far away.
According to Lu Tian's arrangement, each division would have an armored regiment. Each regiment would be equipped with 40 T34/85 tanks and 10 Tiger tanks.
It couldn't be helped. The Russians 'T34 system wasn't selling at a high price, only 300,000 yuan each. The Tiger was more expensive, 800,000 yuan!
The T34, which was durable and easy to maintain, and had enough performance to crush the Japanese tanks, became the first choice. It would be convenient to use when entering the Northeast in the future.
Compared to the Japanese's Little Bean tanks, these steel monsters were simply huge, which really scared Zhu Shaoliang and the others.
No wonder the National Defense Force was so confident. This was simply bullying.
