    ?

    As the Fifth Division launched an attack, the Third Division also launched an attack on Ma'anshan. After launching the attack, he discovered that there were far more enemies than he had imagined.  The town transferred two battalions of leopard battalion and recruits, which increased the strength of Ma'anshan to more than 5,000 people.

    Moreover, Li Brigade's artillery fire is very strong. These were all contributed by the Third Division, and now they are used on the Third Division, which made Fujita very bitter.

    Following Fujita's attack on Ma'anshan, the Sixth Division, under the leadership of Inaba Shiro, used two regiments to cooperate with the heavy artillery regiment to attack Lishui, while the rest of the division was divided into two divisions, one to attack Zhenjiang and the other to attack Zhenjiang.  The second is to attack Jurong, wanting to fully blossom, and advance separately.

    ? On the 9th, the Battle of Lishui started first, but encountered a strong counterattack from the 41st Division. The offensive was thwarted, and a fierce artillery battle broke out between the two sides.

    On the 10th, part of the Sixth Division attacked Zhenjiang. In the afternoon of the same day, the other part attacked Jurong. Jurong had the Ninth Regiment stationed there. The Ninth Regiment was an elite Sichuan Army.

    The real breakthrough point chosen by the Japanese army was Zhenjiang. If they broke through Zhenjiang, they would be able to take Danyang and take Changzhou to the east. According to sources, the Zhenjiang garrison commander was just the puppet army commander who had defected to Liu Yang.  Favored, he was promoted to the Zhenjiang garrison commander, and his subordinates were the original puppet troops.

    The Japanese army is very clear about how powerful the puppet army is. It can be said that almost every battle is defeated. It is still fighting with the national army. Compared with the elite Japanese army, it is not worth mentioning. Even if some scattered veterans of the national army are recruited now  , but it is impossible to think of it as combat power.

    According to Inaba Shiro's plan, he personally led one or two units, plus a supply unit, to forcibly capture Zhenjiang, then went straight to Changzhou, approached Liyang, and completed the entire siege, while the middle road took Langxi, and the west road  Then attack Bowang and fully blossom, perhaps not mistakenly mocking the meaning of the third division.

    But Shiro Inaba miscalculated, he never thought that Zou Lidong would be so difficult to deal with, he thought Zhenjiang was only more than 1,300 people, right?  Just collapse, and may even abandon the city and flee.

    However, Inaba Shiro miscalculated one thing, that is, Zou Lidong did not dare to retreat, nor did he dare not give up his life. Even though he was lying on a stretcher, he still climbed up the city wall.

    Before the Japanese army arrived, Zou Lidong sent a telegram to Liu Yang, asking for instructions on how to fight. As a result, Liu Yang only replied with four words - acting on camera.

    The meaning of this sentence is rich, Zou Lidong hesitated again and again, and had to choose to resist to the end, because he only took refuge in Liu Yang, and there is no possibility that he would go to the Japanese again, let alone whether there will be good results for the wall, I guess the little devil  The person who wants to kill him the most right now is him.

    And once he retreated, Zou Lidong knew that he would never have a chance to stand out in this life. Even if he wanted to retreat, he would have to disable his troops.

    It was with this kind of thinking that Zou Lidong went all out, and the weapons and ammunition seized from the former Zhenjiang defenders were enough to support Zou Lidong in this battle. Because there was no shortage of weapons and ammunition, Zou Lidong temporarily went to Zhenjiang to expand his strength.  The recruitment of young and strong men to join the army was lower than the Japanese attack. When Shiro Inaba arrived, the garrison in the city expanded to more than 3,000 people.

    For a long time, people have seen Zou Lidong as playing tricks, even if he was with the Japanese, he tried his best to curry favor with Liu Yang, but he forgot that Zou Lidong was also a graduate of a regular military school, and he had fought badly before.  fight less.

    Zou Lidong was unwilling to visit the Zhenjiang garrison commander who had come so hard to come by now. Now he can be said to hold great power, and he can be regarded as a big member of the party. Before enjoying this good life for a few days, the damn little devil came.

    It's just that Zou Lidong didn't know that at the moment Inaba Shiro landed, Wuxi's Takeuchi Regiment suddenly dispatched more than 2,000 troops, all the way to Zhenjiang.

    Inaba Shiro underestimated Zou Lidong. When he rushed to the outside of Zhenjiang City, he only rested for two hours and launched an attack in the afternoon. According to Inaba Shiro's words, he planned to finish dinner in Zhenjiang City at night.

    The Sixth Division is definitely an elite group. Inaba Shiro is also a famous general. He was a Japanese cavalry lieutenant general. He was born in Osaka Prefecture. When he was young, he studied at the Osaka Army Local Infant School, the Central Infant School, and graduated from the 18th term of the Army Non-commissioned Officer School in 1905. In the first year of the Taisho Army  24 graduates.

    ?From the Kwantung Army to the present, with a brilliant record, Inaba Shiro naturally has his pride. Although the siege of the city cannot account for his cavalry tactics, it does not prevent him from using his methods.

    In Inaba Shiro's view, a motley crew like the University of Technology doesn't need anything at all.For such a strategy, all that is needed is powerful artillery fire, and then forcefully break through.

    Katsuji Imamura, the original brigade commander, was more inclined to recruit Zou Lidong. After all, someone like Zou Lidong who had served as a puppet army commander had no integrity at all. If Zou Lidong surrendered, the casualties of the soldiers could be reduced.  much better.

    ?Because Liyang will be attacked next, and Liyang is now stationed by the 105th Division. The 105th Division is an elite division of the secret service battalion. It has strong combat effectiveness and strong weapons and equipment.

    But it was denied by Inaba Shiro, because Inaba Shiro felt that Zou Lidong's motley army was vulnerable, and there was no need to spend that kind of effort, and he didn't have time to recruit these motley troops.

    The battle started quickly. First of all, the artillery fired. More than 60 cannons bombarded Zhenjiang for more than an hour.  It was cold, and thick smoke billowed from the city of Zhenjiang.

    Zou Lidong is very familiar with the tactics of the Japanese army, and knows that the Japanese army looks down on him and will definitely attack with powerful artillery fire, so he built a large number of fortifications in advance to resist the attack of artillery fire.  Let the soldiers hide inside.

    The bomb defense tunnels built by Zou Lidong are triangular in shape, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. Although it is aggravating for people to hide inside, it is easy to avoid shelling, and many of them are built with concrete.

    The shelling along the way killed and injured more than 400 Zhenjiang garrison troops. Some of these recruits who had never fought in the war were so scared that they peed their pants.

    But even with the more than 100 people in the Zhongyong Battalion, the entire Zhenjiang garrison only has more than 400 veterans, and the nearly 2,000 people in the flag language are all young and strong in Zhenjiang.  If the sound doesn't collapse, it's already good.

    Looking at the trembling recruits in the artillery hole so early, Zou Lidong was a little bit bitter, and his adjutant at the side was even more worried: "Commander, look at the virtues of these recruits, can this battle be fought?"

    "If you don't fight, you have to fight. Otherwise, how can you explain to Chief Liu? Wang Zhixin fought very well in Guangde. Could it be that I, the Zhenjiang garrison commander, can be worse than him¡ª" Zou Lidong had a gloomy face, and when he mentioned Wang Zhixin, he felt a little irritable and angry.  Depressed, how did Wang Zhixin gain the attention of Chief Liu.

    Although the Preparatory Division for Breaking Bandits is a preparatory division, those soldiers were dispatched by Chief Liu, and they already have strong combat effectiveness, while my own side¡ªbut it also has advantages, the soldiers I lead are the most obedient, and they will not be controlled by others.  Unlike Wang Zhixin, who is simply a puppet.

    Zou Lidong, who was a little hopeful at first, thought that these recruits were locals from Zhenjiang, and they would work hard for their families, but he was disappointed. These people had never been on the battlefield, so they couldn't adapt at all.

    This is not going to work, and his thoughts turned quickly, Zou Lidong thought of a bad move, and suddenly waved to the adjutant: "Second brother, you immediately take someone to invite all the big girls and young wives from each family, remember  , must not let the brothers harass them, whoever dares to mess up, will be shot on the spot¡ª"

    The adjutant was stunned, scratched his scalp, and said with a puzzled expression: "Commander, what are you going to do, is it possible that you still want women to go to the battlefield?"

    "You know what a fart, if you are told to do it, do it quickly, that's so much nonsense." Zou Lidong glared at the adjutant, and snorted heavily.

    Serious illness requires heavy medicine. For these recruits who are afraid of death, there is only one way to stimulate them. When can a man unleash his full strength, that is to invite all the girls and daughters-in-law in the city in front of women.  Well, with such a large group of women watching, these recruits can still act like this here.

    Not to mention, some of these women are definitely the wives and daughters of some of these men. They are behind them, no one is fucking desperate, and there are not many real cowards. They are all forced out.

    Although the adjutant was not that smart, he handled things quickly and was loyal to Zou Lidong. Soon, six hundred girls and daughters-in-law were invited, and there were still many old and weak women and children waiting to watch, although these people were from the national army.  , To put it politely, let these women support the logistics, such as carrying water, transporting ammunition, etc.¡ª¡ª

    This is what Zou Lidong told the adjutant. There must be a suitable reason. You can't say that these women come to show off in front of men. There are many people here who can believe it, so they all came, but they all have faces written all over their faces.  terrified.

    When the gunfire stopped, before the Japanese army attacked, Zou Lidong stood up and shouted: "Brothers, look back, many of these big girls and young wives are your wives.  Or a daughter, even if not, maybe that will become your wife in the future¡ª"

    After a pause, Zou Lidong spat hard: "Think about it, if the little devil breaks the city, what will happen to your women? Can you pretend to be a bear in front of women? If you are cowardly,  Do you still want to ask for a wife in the future? If you don¡¯t want to be ashamed, follow me to beat devils¡ª¡± (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com)??'s wife¡ª"

    After a pause, Zou Lidong spat hard: "Think about it, if the little devil breaks the city, what will happen to your women? Can you pretend to be a bear in front of women?
