Chapter five hundred and eighty ninth calculation
While counting the equipment that the opponent needs to attack and the appropriate amount of troops, the casualties of the troops of the 23rd Army were checking for the casualties of the troops of each number of the 23rd Army.
Fan Ming's 166th Division, of which the 125th Brigade, was removed from two regiments and supplied several other troops.
Wu Xing's biggest sacrifice was the group of new recruits who had been trained a year ago, when the battlefield started, they rushed towards the Japanese defense line, and were bombed by poison gas bombs and Japanese artillery bombs, and many veterans were injured.
Zhou Xiaoshan wanted to discuss with Fan Ming, merge three regiments with less casualties into one brigade, and several other regiments with more casualties simply reorganized them into another brigade. Anyway, the skeleton was built, and the training of the recruits was also underway.
The new recruits brigade should not join the war this time and remain unmoved behind Guangde.
Chu Tianshu's 168th Division did not fight any strong battles when it arrived in Jiangnan. The ambush was very small. In the sudden front of the Taihunan Corridor, not only did it ambush a convoy of Japanese supplies, but it also gathered many defeated soldiers. Now there are actually four regiments, and there are more Japanese-armed veteran regiments in Songhu.
However, in order to keep it confidential, this Songhu veteran regiment cannot follow the 122nd Brigade to attack Shanghai.
Feng Tiankui personally served as the division commander. In general, the casualties on the Jiangnan battlefield are not as good as those on the Shanxi battlefield, and both brigades can fight again.
Guo Xunqi landed that night, and there were no casualties in the 144th Division. Most of the new 7th Division recruited after the July 7 Incident. After leaving Sichuan for three months, they all did anti-packing work. That night, the new 7th Division, who had not experienced the bloody civil war, panicked and lost almost one-third of the loss. Some veterans who had withdrawn from Songhu were added. The new 7th Division could also be transferred to Guangde or Wuhu for rest.
The 144th Division can fight again.
Pan Wenhua's part-time 23rd Army was similar to Fan Ming's troops. The 147th and 148th Divisions split out all the recruits who were replenished, pulled the 147th Division into a fist, and fought another battle. As for the 148th Division, it is okay to stay in Guangde or retreat westward.
Fan Shaozeng's temporary 88th Army, four independent brigades, Badujia and Changxing fought two battles.
The recruits recruited by Guangde were also replenished. Liu Xiang did not consider fighting again at the beginning, so the recruits who had replenished were still needed to be pulled out.
The 88th Army temporarily organized the two veteran brigades to participate in this attack on the Japanese army.
Zhou Xiaoshan calculated that Fan Shaozeng had two brigades, Guo Xunqi had two brigades, and Pan Wenhua had two brigades. These six brigades were all brigades of 6,000 people, plus three direct military cannons, artillery, cavalry and other troops, a total of 38,000 people could participate in the war.
Feng Tiankui's three brigades, plus the army's direct troops, could have 25,000 people participating in the war.
There are only 63,000 people.
The Japanese have a lot of troops in Shanghai, with messy institutions, and they are divided into the navy and army. From the information they obtained, based on the maximum number of people, it should be between 28,000 and 30,000, which is not counting the nearly 50,000 Japanese expatriates in the Japanese concession.
Besides, the more than 20,000 Japanese troops in Suzhou have not left yet. Although there are no Japanese troops in Wuxi, there are a gang of Japanese troops stationed in Changzhou.
More than 60,000 yuan was more than 50,000 yuan, which did not count the expatriates who could be armed at any time.
The troops are still not strong enough.
At least three brigades could not hold on to attack Shanghai. At least four brigades and two artillery regiments had to be sent to seize the 75mm caliber Japanese artillery equipment, one was used to deal with the Japanese airport and the other was used to deal with the Japanese army docked on the Huangpu River Wharf to the fleet.
The airport only needs shelling, and the railway station of Jing'an Temple needs to be occupied, which is a focus of attack. Whether it is north or south, the Bund Pier must be occupied, and warships in the Huangpu River must be shelled before.
There is also a hard bone, which is the Japanese Concession in Hongkou and the Japanese Navy in the Japanese Concession, and the Central China Front Army left behind.
These three targets, plus two targets that must be bombarded, it is best to send two brigades and add two artillery regiments.
There are mixed dragons and snakes in the Japanese concession, and the Shanghai Army and the Army station require at least two brigades.
The Japanese also need at least one brigade at the pier of the Huangpu River.
What's more, the battle started, and more than 20,000 Japanese troops from Suzhou could go back to Shanghai along the railways and highways at any time.
In addition to destroying the Beijing-Hangzhou Railway, Kunshan must send troops to block the attack.
According to Liu Xiang's idea, he should also rescue the prisoner-of-war camp in Suzhou as much as possible and rescue more than 7,000 prisoners of war inside.
This battle is not impossible to fight.
Accurately grasp the attack order.
The commanders of the regiment-level system can use the terrain and read the battlefield.
Taking advantage of the Japanese army's institutional chaos in Shanghai and the developed transportation network, even if only artillery regiments were used to knock out the Japanese planes on the Shanghai airport, it would be a huge victory.
Besides, if the attack is not smooth or the Japanese reinforcements are provided, they can withdraw the army easily.
Such a battle requires the scattered troops to have sufficient battlefield sensitivity, and for the People's Liberation Army and Volunteers more than ten years later, they are all good things.
Can the Sichuan Army achieve the combat power?
The troops were touched by the Japanese or the attack was not smooth, and they were counterattacked by the Japanese like Yixing.
Zhou Xiaoshan used his hands to rub his face that had shaved in the afternoon.
Life is no longer possible.
He couldn't imagine what the Fushichuan Army would look like after this battle!
Not to mention half a year, even one year or two years, you can’t even think about restoring your combat power.
Forget it, go and discuss with Pan Wenhua and Feng Tiankui first.
Let them adjust the reorganized troops first.
I stayed in the farmyard where the 66th Army Military Communications Comprehensive Regiment was located for a long time. When I walked out, the warm winter sun had already set.
I have been in Nanjiang for more than a month, but the supplies in the rear cannot be replenished.
The canned foods that were transported to Wuhan and Wuhu were delicious such as spicy chicken and ginger rabbit.
I distributed some to other troops of the 23rd Army, and almost finished eating.
I brought so many dried chili and chili noodles, but I also stopped.
The bastard's Military Supply Bureau also seized a batch of military supplies that had just been transported from Sichuan in Yichang. He waved his fiat currency and forced his purchase, and was not afraid of eating spicy food that would cause diarrhea and prolapse.
This is a life-threatening death for the heavy-tasting Sichuan Army.
I can't get the peppers, and I'm not even interested in eating.
When Zhou Xiaoshan went to the military headquarters to have a meal, he noticed that Chen Cheng, with a group of staff from the 15th Army and some officers from the 119th Brigade of Hu Lian, came to the 66th Army for a meal.
It was so lively that he heard Zheng Chong making a request to Chen Cheng from a distance.
"Commander Chen, can you tell the people of the Military Control Commission that chili peppers are the life of us Sichuan people. We have locked up our spicy canned food, so how can we eat on the front line!"
"We Central Army can't even eat rice. Is this appropriate for you to have chickens and rabbits every meal?"
Before Chen Cheng could speak, several adjutants beside him cried out.
"But there are chili peppers in the dish. There are so many soldiers of the Central Army. They still take the chili peppers out of the can. This is a pity!"
"That's right, even if the soldiers from Hunan and Henan can resist the spicy taste of Sichuan, he can't stand the numbness!"
"This is not forced by your Sichuan Army. The Sichuan Army monopolized the supply of Chongqing, Yongzhou and military supplies canned factories. We can't buy canned foods that suit our tastes. We can't be hungry. Let's see if you are delicious and spicy!"
