ps: I chose to end the Shanghai Battle today. What I want to ask is: How many people remember today is August 13?! I am afraid that most of them remember the Chinese Valentine's Day?! But I still hope that someone can remember today is August 13.

Yisan is the day when the martyrs in Shanghai gave endless flesh and blood...

This passage was very sad. Although he was ready to die when he arrived in Shanghai, what he did not expect was that his losses would be so great.

Two aircraft carriers were compensated, and there were four battleships. The Navy would never give up. The colleagues of its own Army Department would face the navy's unyielding responsibility.

"Your Excellency Commander..." Onode choked up a little. No matter what, Hata Shunji led the more than 300,000 Japanese troops in Shanghai to withstand the attack of the National Defense Force for more than a month.

The general who was full of energy when he came, now had a gray hair and a pale face. Onoji didn't know what to say to comfort the general, and Hata Shunrok seemed to see Onoji's thoughts.

"I'm tired, don't have to look at me. Go and take care of others..." As he said that, Hata Shunruo slowly closed his eyes. When he was tired, it was the truth and the false.

During the period of hospitalization, Hata Shunruo fell into a coma no less than five times. The combat command was unable to coordinate, and each department coordinated and commanded the operations on its own.

In fact, there is nothing to command. It is nothing more than gradual resistance and mutual support. Under the bombardment of "maces", heavy artillery and tanks, the fortifications on which the Japanese army gradually melted like the ice and snow in spring.

Being able to fight has not collapsed yet, which is already a manifestation of the Japanese strength. The Japanese lower-level officers in the downtown area of ​​Shanghai do not know that they have been abandoned.

In their opinion, their commander, Shinji Hata, are still fighting in Shanghai. Unfortunately, they don’t know that in fact, Shinji Hata is atonement for his death.

"Master. We can no longer support..." The captain of Yokoi stood in front of his captain with a sad face.

If it is normal, Yokoi, as the squad leader, is not qualified to stand in front of Tomoko Yukawa. But the current situation is that there are less than one and a half squadrons that can continue to fight.

Therefore, this team leader is qualified to meet Major Yukawa, who is the captain.

"Secretary Yokoi, the only thing I can tell you is: continue fighting!" Yukawa was one of the few people who knew that the entire army had been placed behind the last hall.

After learning that the commander General Shin-Ruo Hata was determined to be martyred in Shanghai, Yukawa felt that even meeting under the cherry blossom trees in the shrine was a kind of honor.

"Now is the time for us to show our loyalty to the empire and His Majesty the Emperor!" Yukawa looked at Yokoi and said in a deep voice: "Or we died in battle, our reputation spreads among the world. Or we are humiliated and retreating. Because of this, our family members

We are shamed. I believe you will make a choice between the two."

Yokoi's face was pale and he remained silent as Yukawa said. After a while, he said to Yukawa: "Master, I have something I want to talk to you alone. Please allow it."

Yukawa frowned. As a major, Yukawa, actually didn't want to pay too much attention to Yokoi. But looking at Yokoi's smoke, he decided to listen to what Yokoi said.

But when Yukawa waved his hand, the guards and adjutants around him walked out. Suddenly, Yukawa and Yokoi were left in the temporary command center.

"Okay, you can say something now." Yukawa tried to calm his tone and looked at Yokoi. At this time, Yokoi seemed to be struggling whether he wanted to say that.

After a while, he looked up at Yukawa's eyes and said word by word: "Master, I just want to ask: Are we already given up?!"

As soon as Yokoi said something, Yukawa Tomochi suddenly pulled out half of his sword! But it seemed that Yukawa realized something. He forced the General Saber's sword to shovel and said.

"Yokai Jun. You are too worried. Commander is all in Shanghai..." Yokoi lowered his head and smiled bitterly before Yukawa finished speaking.

"Master, you don't have to hide it from me. I have experienced such a thing before. General Shinichi Seuyi was also commanding the battle in Jinan..."

Yukawa Tomoto stopped talking, and then he remembered that Yokoi was suddenly incorporated into his brigade. But before joining the brigade, Yokoi's resume was vague.

Yukawa Tomoe has always disliked this second lieutenant since he saw Yokoi's first side, because Yokoi always had a scent of dusk.

Although he was very brave in fighting, he was very good at grasping tactics and encouraging morale. However, as long as he appeared in front of Yukawa, Yokoi always looked like a dusk.

"Master Yukawa, maybe you don't know. During the Battle of Jinan, I was already a sect." Yokoi was silent for a while and said to Yukawa: "National Defense Forces, I am more familiar with you than you. And strategic retreat, I am

Personal experiencers. I can guess such things just by thinking about them…”

Yukawa stood up impatiently, looked at Yokoi coldly and snorted: "What are you going to do?! We are going to tell everyone that we were left to die?!"

Yokoi didn't speak, and after a moment of silence, he said, "I wouldn't do such a thing. If I do this, then my family in the empire will be shamed for me."

After hearing Yokoi's words, Yukawa finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Yokoi didn't reveal this fact, it didn't matter even if he guessed it.

"Master, I only have one request..." When Yokoi raised his head, Yukawa had already seen the tears in his eyes.

"Please help me send a telegram to the country. At least I hope my family can see my farewell call..." Yokoi said, crying: "At least... I should let my family know that I have been for the Empire.

Be loyal..."

Yukawa, silent.

The rumbling sound of artillery continued. The Japanese dock that the Second Legion had seized, the dock that had caused heavy losses to the Central Army, turned into a joke in the face of the powerful firepower of the National Defense Forces.

The Japanese army, who tried to defend against the fortifications built in the warehouse, collapsed under a tiger-style 105mm shell. The tracks of the tank directly knocked the high wall away. The fire crow shot directly at the warehouse and killed the 99-style counter-war.

Japanese soldiers rushing out of the car with explosive bombs.

In less than fifteen minutes, this dock that had caused heavy losses to the Central Army and had not even captured tens of thousands of people became the object of the Second Legion.

In the last Battle of Shanghai, the Chinese team was still forced to retreat by the Japanese army in tears. Seventy divisions and seven brigades were in front and behind. Six hundred thousand soldiers fought bloody battles, even in nearly two hundred fighter jets and seventeen.

The tanks still suffered a crushing defeat.

The Japanese army only mobilized 30,000 people to defeat all the military forces in China, including the Central Army, the Yunnan Army, the Guangxi Army, the Sichuan Army, the Northeast Army, etc. at that time.

In this battle, each unit suffered more than 180,000 casualties. One army commander, one division commander and four deputy division commanders all died in the Songhu position.

Liu Qiwen, the Major General of the 322nd Brigade of the 108th Division of the 67th Army, died heroically in the fierce battle with the Japanese army in Shihudang, at the age of 39. He was also the first general to be killed in the Northeast Army during the War of Resistance Against Japan.

Lieutenant General Wu Keren, the commander of the 67th Army, was originally the main force of the Northeast Army. He died in the battle to cover the evacuation of the remaining troops. Major General Qin Lin, the commander of the 511th Brigade of the 171st Division of the 7th Army, sent Shanghai to the Guangxi clique.

The main force was bombed by Japanese troops during the battle and died heroically.

** Major General Deng Yuzhuo, Chief of Staff of the 107th Division of the 67th Army, Major General Zhu Zhirong, Commander of the 321st Brigade of the 107th Division of the 67th Army, and Major General Pang Hanzhen, Commander of the 510th Brigade of the 170th Division of the 21st Army of the 7th Army...

More than a dozen famous generals and stars fell in the Battle of Songhu. Nearly 200,000 soldiers and the lives and blood of dozens of generals were in exchange for that.

Who knows the blood and tears in it?!

The fierce battle in Songhu did not stop the Japanese. Instead, because only 30,000 people were used to resist the attack of 600,000 people, and even killed nearly 200,000 people, they noticed that the external force and the middle force in Nanjing were attacked.

It was also after this battle that Japan chose to launch a full-scale war.

"I'm back!" Standing on the dock, Pang Dali burst into tears. Here, thousands of his brothers were buried. Those brothers once sacrificed their lives to capture this dock.

But even so, the Central Army was still blocked from the dock. Pang Dali was the former Central Army soldier who had participated in the Battle of Shanghai.

During the Nanjing Battle, he chose to join Yan Chenghan's Second Army. Later, he followed Yan Chenghan to fight south and north, and was transferred to the Second Corps to serve as the 61st Regiment of the 21st Division of the Seventh Army.

long.

"Captain..." Xia Rui, the guard beside him, called carefully at his commander. There are many people here! The commander cried in public, which was not good-looking.

"What are you shouting?! Didn't you see that I'm busy?" Pang Dali turned around and roared at Xia Rui. But after roaring, he knelt on the dock and kowtowed three times.

"Brothers of the 216th Regiment! I, Lao Pang, didn't say anything big! I'll avenge you..."

The shrill roar was like a wounded lone wolf shouting. The old people in the 21st Division who knew about Pang Dali's experience couldn't help but sigh. They knew that this was a lump in Pang Dali's heart.

Pang Dali has never understood why he was defeated by the Japanese army in such a desperate battle back then. Only when he knew that Yan Chenghan taught them knowledge did Pang Dali know why.

Because of the gap, the huge gap, from equipment, weapons, from individual soldiers' quality to command and combat. The huge gap causes heavy casualties and nothing is gained.

Since then, Pang Dali has sworn to the heavens, and to the brothers who died on the docks, he would one day he would personally set the docks down and use the blood of the Japanese to pay tribute to the brothers who died in the 216th Regiment.

He did it.

Street fighting is extremely boring, boring and dangerous. The attack method adopted by the Second Legion is extremely violent, and the fate encountered by any Japanese blocking point is to be directly demolished.

If the infantry cannot be dismantled, the tank will be dismantled. If the tank cannot be dismantled, the heavy artillery will be launched. If not, the tiger-headed moth will carry a "mace" to tell these defensive Japanese troops that any fortifications will be a joke in front of the Second Legion.

The buildings in Zhabei, Hongkou, Yangshupu, Nanshi District, Wusong and other areas have basically been swept away, and some places have even been blown up to a large pit and constantly seeping water.

All the concessions occupied by the Japanese army did not escape the demolition, and more than 90% of the buildings were swept away. Many Japanese soldiers even did not even have a place to evacuate. They could only let the national defense forces strangle them in the open air.

With the rumbling cannons, Hata Shunji woke up leisurely again. This time he did not see Onoji who was specially sent to protect him, and even Hata Shunji's saber was gone.

Shinji Hata glanced and closed his eyes again. He was waiting to die.

After a while, Hata Shunruo heard the chaotic footsteps. But Hata Shunruo still didn't open his eyes. In his opinion, this should be the commanders of each department who came to send him off for the last journey.

"Sir, this is General Hata Shunrok, the current commander of the Chinese Expeditionary Army." Hearing Onoji's stuttering Chinese, Hata Shunrok suddenly opened his eyes.

In front of him were dozens of men in defense force uniforms, and the leader was laughing wildly.

"This is his saber..." Onode walked to the corner of the wall timidly and touched it, then took out the saber of Hata Shunrok and respectfully handed it to the Defense Force officer.

"Maru Noro!! Onoji! You traitor!!" Hata Shunruo suddenly squirted out a mouthful of blood and fainted again. The defense force man frowned and looked at Onoji coldly.

"This Hata Shunji is more useful than death..." The words of this defense force man made Onoji sweat and cry, saying, "We don't have too many medicines! Hata Shunji now needs medicine to stabilize his injuries. But

We're gone."

"It's okay, I can give you all this." The man from the National Wehrmacht grinned and said, "Don't worry, I won't kill you. You won't be hurt. You will live well. Then you will have the opportunity to go back to Japan."

As he said that, the man waved his hand and several National Defense Force soldiers behind him came forward to lift Hata Shunruo onto the stretcher and walked out. The man staggered and pulled out Hata Shunruo's saber and nodded with satisfaction.

"Not bad! It's a good knife, and it's okay to give the commander all the constipation. Hahaha..." The man laughed and put the knife in the sheath, and walked out of the hospital with great strides.

Since Tu Menghu said that he had collected the Japanese sabers and placed them in the toilet to relieve his bowel movements, the entire National Defense Force began to work up and down. From Chief of General Staff Su Zongzhe to the division commander below, the regiment commander suddenly had this hobby overnight

.

If someone does not have a saber in the toilet, it will be despised by his comrades. The regiment-level people usually have a saber, and the division and army will have two more. At least there must be a saber of a colonel.

And the army-level and corps-level ones should not be said to have a major general's sword? Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing. This man was very proud, even if his military commander did not have a Japanese general's sword in the toilet.

If the commander got this saber, he wouldn't have been happy? What's more, there was a living Japanese general. This was the first time that the National Defense Forces have captured such a high-level prisoner since the war began.

We caught a general, it wouldn't be too much to give a first-class merit?! As the man thought about it, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
To be continued...
