- "Buzzing"
"Lie down, the Japanese plane"
Aerial bombs fell one after another, and the Kwantung Army flying team spent a lot of money to save the 78th Wing.
Not only did they dispatch as many as eighteen planes at once, they also used the powerful incendiary bombs in stock!
After the explosion, there was a sea of ??fire on the ground, and the East Resistance suffered heavy losses.
"Damn it!" Lin Nan's eyes were red in the temporary headquarters. After finally blocking the Japanese 78th Regiment here, the Japanese actually sent a plane to help them break out!
Under the bombing and strafing from planes, a gap was forcibly opened in the encirclement. Less than half of the remaining Japanese troops, under the command of the commander of the regiment Zhang Shanxian Leshui, broke out of the encirclement!
Although the Japanese abandoned their armor like a lost dog, the soldiers of the first brigade of the 181st Division were already exhausted after several hours of fierce fighting!
If we pursue, we can eat a piece of the little devil's flesh, but it may be impossible to completely annihilate the 78th Regiment!
In fact, at this point in the battle, the 181st Division has already won, and it is a big victory, which is of great significance!
"Send the cavalry battalion to give chase. We can't just let the little devil run away so easily!" Lin Nan ordered the communication troops to pass the order.
"yes!"
"Order other troops to clean the battlefield and treat the wounded!"
In Longhua County, Lu Shan has been paying attention to the battle between the 181st Division and the Japanese 39th Brigade all morning.
Although the good news continues, the final result has not yet come, which makes Lu Shan still uneasy!
"Report!"
"Come in!"
"The 181st Division's First Brigade telegraphed that the Japanese mixed thirty-ninth brigade, supported by eighteen Japanese aircraft, tore a hole in our encirclement. They broke through to the southeast defense line. Our troops were exhausted and sent a cavalry battalion to pursue them all the way. But they were blocked by the Liao River, and about 500 remaining Japanese troops escaped!"
"Failed to annihilate them all?" Lu Shan frowned slightly.
"Lao Lu, you are too conceited. The Japanese army's combat effectiveness is no worse than ours. If they try their best to break through, it is normal that they cannot stop them." Qin Shiyu said.
"Air supremacy!" Lu Shan said slowly.
"Hey, this is the helplessness of a weak country. Lao Lu, I know what you are thinking, but now is not the time to act on impulse." Qin Shiyu said.
"I know that once our trump card of the Air Force is activated, I will have absolute air supremacy. By then, I will want the entire sky in Northeast China and even the Korean Peninsula to be under my control!" Lu Shandao.
"I knew you would say that, what are the losses of the 181st Division?" Qin Shiyu asked.
"181 is a heavy loss, with nearly a thousand casualties and more than 300 killed!" Su Zhenfei said seriously.
"so much?"
"It's a bit more than I expected, but that's normal. The 181st Division has expanded tremendously. Although the new recruits all have a certain combat foundation, our training time is shorter and we have less battlefield experience than the Japanese army. But after going through this battle, I believe there will be a lot of changes!" Lu Shan said slowly.
"Mr. Lu, our army's casualties are mainly caused by Japanese aircraft dropping giant incendiary bombs. We were unprepared, so many soldiers were burned to death!" Su Zhenfei explained.
"Giant incendiary bomb!" Lu Shan was slightly startled.
"Yes, the scene was a sea of ??fire. This gave the 78th Wing a chance to break out of the encirclement."
"It seems that the little devils are in a hurry this time. We must prevent them from making a crazy counterattack!" Qin Shiyu reminded.
"Well, tell Zhang Yihou, Lin Nan and others to be careful of the Kwantung Army's crazy counterattack. Especially the Sixth Division, whose combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of the 39th Brigade!" Lu Shan solemnly ordered.
"yes!"
"Mr. Lu, a telegram from home!" Feng Yun suddenly hurried to Lu Shan and handed over a top-secret telegram.
Lu Shan took it and took a look, showing a hint of surprise.
"Old Qin, look at it!"
"The Sasebo Naval Joint Special Marine Corps, led by Rear Admiral Takashi Ando, ??took the naval supply ship "White Bird" to Port Arthur at noon today to conduct a joint combat exercise with the Kwantung Army?"
"This is not an exercise. It is clearly an increase in troops in Manchuria in the name of an exercise?" Qin Shiyu said with his mouth wide open.
"The Marine Corps can only be regarded as a third-rate local force in Japan. Its combat effectiveness is much worse than that of Japan's Army Field Division, and its equipment is also much inferior. However, its combat effectiveness and soldier quality are no better than those of our domestic army. How good is it? It may not be as good as Chiang Kai-shek¡¯s ZYJ, but it¡¯s betterIf it comes, ZYJ may not be a match yet! " Lu Shan analyzed and commented.
"It seems that we are going to face off against this special navy team?"
"That's not necessarily true. The Japanese Navy and Army have always been at odds with each other. At this time, the Navy sent a Marine Corps to Manchuria. It clearly wants to get a share of the Kwantung Army's territory. Let's just wait and see what happens!" Lu Lu Shan laughed.
"Watching a show?" Qin Shiyu didn't know why.
"Just wait and see." Lu Shan smiled mysteriously. He almost knew what he wanted to do to deal with the Japanese Navy, or even the Japanese Army, and directly attack the Japanese Navy. Lu Shan asked himself that he didn't have the ability yet.
But there is a Japanese Army that is parallel to the Japanese Navy. Although the Japanese Army is always bullied by the Japanese Navy, after all, the Japanese Army and the Japanese Navy have a distinctive feature: they are both Japanese.
If the Japanese Navy is compared to the aristocracy, then the Japanese Army is the grassroots. The aristocrats have already occupied a large part of the resources, and now they want to squeeze the grassroots. The grassroots are naturally dissatisfied!
The navy cannot survive without land. Therefore, the navy naturally needs more territory. The more territory it has, the more resources it will obtain and the stronger its strength will naturally be.
If the navy wants to maintain its absolute advantage over the army, it must naturally ensure that it gets more benefits than the army. Otherwise, once the army obtains a large amount of resources and develops, it will easily be outmatched.
Of course, Japan is an island country and attaches much greater importance to sea power than land power. In particular, Japan¡¯s development relies heavily on imports, which means it must ensure the safety of its maritime lifeline, so the navy has always been highly invested. Of course, high investment also brings high returns.
This is why the Japanese Army has the best soldiers, but due to limited resource investment, it has always been a second-rate Army.
"Mr. Lu, Chief Bai, Chief Chen and other officials would like to see you!" Yang Shangwu reported.
"Invite them in!"
"yes!"
"Brother Houde. I heard that you have won another big victory. Can you share it with us first?" Bai Jiansheng asked Lu Shan as soon as he entered the door.
"Brother Jiansheng is really well-informed. Did you know it so quickly?" Lu Shan chuckled. Bai Jiansheng and the others were nearby and wanted to know some clues. It's too easy for people like them!
What¡¯s more, Lu Shan did not restrict their freedom. It was not difficult for them to obtain information.
"Everyone of you who comes in and out looks happy. If you don't win a great battle, what is it?" Bai Jiansheng said with a smile.
"Brother Jiansheng, Chief Chen, sirs, please take a seat, let's sit down and talk!" Lu Shan greeted warmly.
¡°I dare not take it!¡±
"Monk, hurry up. Make some tea, you are so weak!"
"Looking at Director Lu's cheerful face, the results of this battle must be extraordinary!" Chen Cixiu said in a slightly sour tone.
¡°It¡¯s just so so, a Japanese regiment was wiped out, but unfortunately, the regiment flag was not captured!¡± Fan Hanjie, who was picking up his tea cup and taking a sip of water, made a ¡°puff¡± sound, and a mouthful of tea spurted out!
Annihilate a Japanese regiment!
"I'm afraid outsiders don't quite understand what this means, but everyone here knows it very well. It means defeating or severely damaging an alliance. It doesn't matter, as long as the strength is enough, anyone here can do it.
But if it is to wipe out a whole regiment, it will not be easy. It is equivalent to completely wiping out the formation of this regiment!
It will be a reconstruction in the future. That's not the same team as before.
However, it is not easy to annihilate a Japanese regiment, especially a field regiment, whose combat effectiveness can be imagined.
??According to the comparison of the strength of the Chinese and Japanese armies, the combat effectiveness of a Japanese regiment can at least be equivalent to that of a domestic division. If it is the kind of division of a local warlord, it is probably more.
"Is this true?" After a long while, Bai Jiansheng opened his mouth and asked.
"My subordinates have never lied about the results of a battle!" Lu Shan said calmly. There was no precedent for even a brigade being wiped out by the Eastern Anti-Japanese War, let alone a regiment. Is it necessary to lie about the results of the battle?
There is no need at all. Besides, there is only one regiment of Japanese troops. Among the Japanese troops destroyed in the East Resistance, this is only a very small part.
"Brother Houde, which regiment of the Japanese army is this?"
"It's the Japanese 77th Regiment!" Lu Shan replied.
"The 77th Regiment of the Japanese 20th Division?"
¡°Well, yes, it¡¯s the 77th Wing, Nine?After the incident, the 39th Brigade was organized into the mixed 39th Brigade, entered Manchuria to participate in the war, accepted the command of the Kwantung Army, and stayed in Manchuria ever since. This time, the first batch of reinforcements from the Kwantung Army was the 39th Brigade! "Lu Shan explained.
"What's the current situation of the war?" Bai Jiansheng asked.
"The 78th Regiment broke out under the cover of the Japanese reinforcement aircraft, with less than 500 people remaining. The rest, except for a few people such as Captain Chi of the 26th Field Artillery Regiment and Acting Brigade Commander Yokoyama Isamu, escaped, they were all annihilated! " Lu Shan said solemnly.
"Huh?" When everyone heard this, there was a sudden gasp.
"Mr. Lu, the Blood Wolf is in urgent need of electricity!" Suddenly, Su Zhenxing walked in from outside and whispered a few words in Lu Shan's ear.
"I'm sorry, everyone, please correct me. I just received the news that the Japanese field artillery regiment of the 39th brigade was basically wiped out by our troops. The commander of the regiment, Colonel Ikeno Song Er, was wounded by me and captured!" Lu Shan announced again.
Hearing this news, everyone who had not yet finished digesting the shocking news were dumbfounded and fell into a state of petrification.
"This is impossible, how could this be done"
¡°It¡¯s incredible, I can¡¯t believe this is true!¡±
"The strength of Dong Kang needs to be re-evaluated!" Chen Cixiu was shocked and couldn't help but secretly become vigilant.
