Teams of Japanese troops ran quickly on the unpaved road. The formation was not scattered. From the sky, they looked like long, agile snakes swimming fast.
These Japanese soldiers shouted "Long Live" while running, and their morale seemed to be very high.
Yes, they are elite!
…
The camera shifted back to the forward position of the 11th Division.
After wiping out these Japanese troops, the national army began to clean up the battlefield.
Because these Japanese troops advanced too fast and left the Japanese troops behind them far behind, they had no reinforcements to follow them.
The speed of the national army in clearing the battlefield was not slow. After all, these soldiers had all survived the battlefield and their bodies were quite flexible.
After a while, the battlefield was cleaned up.
Perhaps out of the desire to insult the Japanese army, the officers and soldiers of the 11th Division stripped the dead Japanese officers and soldiers naked, and then formed a formation.
Of course, when they set up this formation, they did not forget to arrange things like booby traps. What they wanted was that the Japanese army would still have to pay a certain amount of casualties even in their grief.
Not long after, Japanese troops arrived again.
Seeing the naked corpses of the Japanese soldiers on the front line, Kasano Kijima, who was riding on the tall horse looking at the front line, couldn't help but flushed. Obviously, his anger level had been accumulated to the extreme.
He was angry, but Kijima Kasano was not at the point where he was about to lose his mind. He tremblingly picked up the telescope in his hand and stared at the still smoking front.
After a long time, Kasano Kijima finally put down the telescope in his hand. He took a deep breath and said: "These damn China troops have artillery units! No wonder the field-building brigade was defeated so quickly... Report this situation immediately To General Neji Okamura!”
"Hai!!" The Japanese staff officer next to him lowered his head and responded. No one would want to be slapped by the commander of the company.
"Order the troops to prepare for an all-out attack, and be sure to break through the enemy's positions in front of you!" Kijima Kasakio shouted sternly.
"Hai!!" The surrounding Japanese officers and soldiers responded loudly, looking quite menacing.
Of course, Kasano Kijima was not the kind of person who could only show off his bravery. After giving the order, he immediately sent out a reconnaissance force to conduct reconnaissance on the national army's forward positions.
These reconnaissance units were temporarily formed by the division commander Junrokuro Matsuura after the 106th Division entered the Central China battlefield. The requirement is that each regiment has a squadron responsible for specialized reconnaissance missions.
Why temporary formation? This involves combat tasks - due to the different combat terrain and the fact that the Japanese army is extremely unfamiliar with the terrain, this temporary reconnaissance squadron came into being.
It's not that ordinary Japanese troops have weak field combat capabilities or anything else. On the contrary, their combat effectiveness is extremely strong whether it is urban combat or field combat.
However, in order to shorten the combat time, process and professionalism, Matsuura Junrokuro established such a squadron after careful consideration.
Of course, this squadron is not as professional as the reconnaissance squadron of later generations. They are composed of some soldiers with relatively flexible hands and feet, coupled with some officers and two radios, thus forming a reconnaissance squadron.
Under the order of Kasano Kijima, this telegram reporting on the situation of the frontline troops was soon passed from the front line to Keiichi Aoki's brigade headquarters, and from the brigade headquarters to Neji Okamura's 10th Army Corps. First Army Headquarters.
…
Outskirts of Jiujiang, Pengze Town.
With the rapid advance of the Japanese army's forward troops, Okamura Neiji, who likes to place his headquarters closer to the front, has moved his headquarters here.
As for why Okamura Neiji did not set up his headquarters at the forefront of Hukou Town, there are two reasons: First, from a strategic perspective, if the Chinese army knew that his headquarters was in Hukou Town, the enemy would definitely Attacking Hukou at all costs; the second is political considerations. If a shell hits his headquarters, Okamura Neiji will be in an extremely unfavorable situation politically in the war of aggression.
Because of this, Okamura Neiji made a compromise and settled the headquarters in Pengze Town.
As before, Okamura Neiji's headquarters was still heavily guarded. Countless Japanese troops with loaded guns and ammunition were running back and forth nearby, either heading to the front line or troops on guard duty.
Even if you are not on the front line, you can still feel the tension here.
At this time, Okamura Neiji had just finished handling an official business, which was probably related to rear supply issues. He had just wanted to take a rest, and something "came" to him again.
I saw a combat staff officer quickly running to Okamura Neiji, standing at attention and saluting: "Report to your Excellency, General! Urgent news came from the 136th Brigade of the 106th Division on the front line, stationed in China in the Gutang area of Jiujiang. The army has an artillery unit, and a brigade of the brigade's forward troops has been almost completely wiped out by the China Army. According to the message just sent by the commander of the 136th Brigade, Major General Aoki Keiichi, his troops are ready to do their best. Preparations are made for an onslaught. Now call for support from the navy and aircraft."
After hearing the news, Okamura Neji narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "The China Army actually deployed such a powerful force in Gutang. This must be the top priority of the China Army's defense. Since Songhu After the two battles in Nanjing and Nanjing, the Central Army of the China Army was basically in a state of being severely damaged or even destroyed."
Okamura Neiji calmed down, and then continued: "Under such circumstances, the China Army is still willing to use such elite troops to fight against us. It seems to be similar to what I expected before..."
"Your Excellency General, you are wise!" The Japanese combat staff next to him flattered him, which was not loud.
"Yo Xi, please immediately send me an order to order all frontline troops to capture Gutang Town, which is heavily guarded by the China Army, at all costs! Special orders are given to the Navy's naval artillery and aircraft units to provide full support. In addition, other departments, We must also move closer to Gutang Town! As long as we move to Gutang Town, Jiujiang County will be directly exposed to the front of our army! Execute the order immediately!" As he said that, Okamura Neiji slammed the table in front of him. .
This time, Okamura Neiji is determined to win Jiujiang County!
…
Following Okamura Neiji's attack order, all Japanese troops took action one after another and began to march towards Gutang, the important place on the Jiujiang battlefield. The speed was not ordinary fast!
Gutang, a little-known place, will eventually become a focus of the game between the Chinese and Japanese armies!
The Japanese army has stretched out their long fangs and is determined to capture Gutang at all costs, while the Nationalist officers and soldiers have received orders to defend Gutang to the death!
