The mission map and instructions issued took Zhou Xiaoshan and others a lot of effort. After joining the 66th Army General Staff in Wuhan, Zhou Xiaoshan was thinking about pre-war preparations. Feng Tiankui's General Staff and a group of college student officers were cooperating with this work.

Especially in the past few days on the ship, a group of young officers who had visited the Guangde Ring Road to investigate the terrain were discussing.

Liu Xiang looked at Zhou Xiaoshan with approval. Such detailed pre-war preparation plan not only Tang Shizun, Pan Wenhua and Guo Xunqi knew what to do, but even the standards were marked very clearly. They also made it convenient for them to explain to the officers and soldiers below.

Seeing the high morale of several generals of the Sichuan Army, Zhou Xiaoshan was far from so optimistic.

The 10th Japanese Army is a very powerful person. In addition, the TV series world has switched the 16th Japanese Division and the 18th Japanese Division. It turned out that two special divisions and one permanent division has become two permanent divisions and one special division. The number of Japanese troops is inexplicably more amazing, and they are mostly in technical corps such as cavalry, artillery, and engineers. Not to mention their own artillery regiment, the heavy artillery brigade of the 10th Army is scary enough.

Among the Japanese army, the heavy artillery brigade belongs to the strategic unit, with only six in total.

Unfortunately, the 10th Army happened to be one.

There are two heavy artillery brigades under a standard heavy artillery brigade, including 30-40 heavy cannons with a 150mm caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber caliber calib

The power of these heavy artillery is not a joke, it is really scary when it explodes. For example, the 240-type cannon of Type 90, its shell weighs 185 kilograms. When loading, it needs to use a special loading vehicle to load into the cannon chamber. Its range reaches 16 kilometers. When it falls on the ground and explodes, the killing radius exceeds 80 meters. If such a shell hits a field fortification, at least one platoon of troops will be crossed out of the system. Even if the people in the fortification are not wiped with shrapnel and are not killed by the earth pit, they will be shocked by the huge shock wave.

As for the larger 320mm mortar cannon, the weight of the shell alone is 300 kilograms, not to mention the power. Basically, if a shell hits the fortification under a shell, a company will evaporate from the world.

Among so many Sichuan generals, including Pan Wenhua, they could not understand Zhou Xiaoshan's mission map. Only Feng Tiankui and Liu Xiang understood Zhou Xiaoshan's meaning.

Destroy the highway in advance, even if you alarm the Japanese, don’t attract the Japanese artillery brigade.

Those 150-caliber and 240-caliber cannons will be difficult to leave the train line. If the road is damaged, it will be enough to scare the Japanese heavy artillery brigade to other directions.

In fact, the west bank of Taihu Lake is vast. The 10th Army looked at the Japanese army with eyes facing the sky and stared at Nanjing. Even the second-rate Jing'an army cooperated with it, they had no plans to occupy the road and had no troops to evacuate the surrounding areas of the occupied highway.

Zhou Xiaoshan remembered that the Japanese army occupied Nanjing first and then went south to capture Hangzhou.

In other words, it is very likely that the Japanese army's Sixth Artillery Brigade did not follow or arrived in Nanjing City from the Taihubei colleagues.

If the Japanese heavy artillery brigade was coming from the direction of Jinshanwei, they would probably not be able to take the highway. They would definitely take Hangzhou first along the Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway, and then transfer from Hangzhou to Nanjing.

The Japanese army also had fierce competition, which was a once-in-a-lifetime military achievement. Shanghai Expeditionary Army and the Tenth Army, everyone wanted to be the first to enter Nanjing City, but they were afraid that the other party would steal the limelight and would definitely not go to Hangzhou to detour.

Besides, even if you are detoured and I destroy the Beijing-Hangzhou Railway, even if you reach the Taihu Lake, you have to stay in the end and not be able to follow.

Zhou Xiaoshan agreed to Tang Shizun that leaving the 66th Army in Guangde was a smoke bomb itself.

The 66th Army pretended to be a cat behind Pan Wenhua and Tang Shizun, and at least two to three brigades were sent to Sijiao Mountain west of Huzhou and the top of the mountain to see if it could destroy the artillery corps of several divisions of the Japanese. Otherwise, this battle would not be fought.

Liu Xiang asked the commanders of the army to arrange and mobilize.

With specific preparations, Liu Xiang sent the supervision team out to supervise the implementation, drove all the generals away, and watched the boy staring blankly by his side.

"Xiaoshan, do you think, can we stop the 10th Army's Japanese devils?"

"How to say it? It must be impossible. Even if we block the 10th Army that deviates from south to north, we can't stop the Shanghai Expeditionary Army in the northeastern corridor of Taihu Lake. Nanjing, ah, the Sanyang defense theory that Mr. Jiang Baili predicted made sense!"

"Oh, Songhu has gathered 700,000 troops. The equipment of the German Armored Division and the Tax Police Corps is not worse than ours. How could even the disabled Shanghai Expeditionary Army cannot defend it? In terms of China and Japan's national strength and military strength, this battle will not be like this. It has only been a few months since the war started, and Nanjing cannot defend it!"

When Liu Xiang heard that he could not hold on to Nanjing, he was disappointed in his eyes and sighed heavily.

"Master General, the Japanese army is stronger than expected. When he switched from Shanxi to Jiangnan, the Japanese army will attach great importance to our Sichuan army. The Japanese will mobilize enough aircraft to cooperate with the attack. We must forcibly block the 10th Army from heading north. The 23rd Army may suffer a lot of casualties!"

"Soldiers, we should defend our country. Since we have arrived in the Seventh War Zone, we are responsible for defending our territory. You can do it and fight with confidence. Even if the Twenty-Two Army fights all over, I won't blame you. The strong enemy will invade the country, and the country is weak. There is no way. If Tiankui and I had discovered you a few years ago, we wouldn't have been so embarrassed!"

"A few years earlier, I'm still a ignorant child!"

Zhou Xiaoshan was amused by Liu Xiang.

"Oh, let go of the fight. We have no 23rd Army. The army left behind in Sichuan can still pull out two armies. Even if our generation fights all, we will set an example for future generations and fight with the Japanese for generations. In addition, when Diaoyu City fought against the Mongolian army, we fought for a hundred years, so that history can remember the contribution of our Sichuan army to sacrifice for the country, and we, the Sichuan warlords, have fought for the rest of our lives!"

Liu Xiang is still very affectionate about the army he started.

After saying that, Zhou Xiaoshan also realized his strong helplessness.

"Master, I still recommend not to fight against the Japanese, and to attack their vital strength!"

"Xiaoshan, behind us, we have no choice but to retreat. In fact, you have done a good job. Mr. Lu, a Minsheng Company, praised you for your foresight. If it weren't for Huang Wenyuan and Zhang Jixian being so tough on the board of directors, forced him to make up his mind. He rented so many foreign ships last year in one breath, and the consequences were unimaginable. He said your suggestions were very clever. Now the ship's flags were all foreign. When fighting this war, it was not only not easy to eat bombs, but after buying insurance, they were not afraid of Japanese bombs! They did not stop passing through Wuhan, to Yichang, and transporting refugees. I stayed in the General Staff of the Seventh War Zone and now helped maintain order at the dock. If it were the transportation capacity of dozens of small boats, I don't know how many people would die."
