Chapter 369 That's it?
A trace of light just appeared in the horizon.
The Japanese army surrounded Songjiang three sides had already begun to be busy on the positions, having dinner and tidying up equipment, and the ministers of each minister loudly conveyed the military orders they had just received.
The soldiers' solemn faces looked even more gloomy under the shadow of their helmets, but they mechanically stuffed freshly heated rice dumplings into their mouths.
The Japanese heavy artillery brigade was already on the battlefield, and just waited for the order from the superiors to teach the Chinese people to be human.
The entire four base shells were placed more than ten meters of each artillery. Because the range of the Chinese artillery was not so far, the Japanese artillery soldiers had no scruples. What they had to do was to pour the shells into the Chinese's strong shells as quickly as possible, and completely smash the shields that ruined countless imperial infantry.
As heavy artillery shells exploded around the already incomplete city walls in Songjiang, the Japanese infantry began to enter the front line, the lower-level Japanese officers began to shout slogans heart-wrenchingly, while the Japanese infantry kept responding loudly.
“Onboard!”
"Long live the empire!"
"The empire's martial fortune is prosperous!"
......
The various slogans that boost morale were shouting from nearly 20,000 infantrymen, although the thunder of mountains and seas overwhelmed the rumbling cannons in the distance, their power was also extremely scary.
The Japanese army, which was determined to fight the decisive battle with the Chinese defenders, has already put in full strength, and its morale has gradually improved compared to yesterday.
This made Yanagawa Heisuke, who had a telescope hanging around his neck and stood in the command center for the first time wearing a steel helmet, finally had a smile on his face.
The morale of the army is available! I will win this battle!
However, the lieutenant general of the 10th Army did not see the expressions of his colleagues more than ten miles away.
Lieutenant General Sadao Niujima who was personally commanding an infantry brigade of the 18th Division to surround the north city, his face slightly stiff.
Front-line officers kept coming to report to him that there were traces of a large number of people trampling in the wilderness outside the north city of Songjiang, as well as feces left by horses and scattered forage.
Is this the Chinese coming to reinforce?
This is the first thought of Sadao Ushima.
But there is no such possibility. Not to mention that after Songe, he ordered Yanagawa Heisuke to order him to send a 400-person contingent, and the other divisions also sent small-scale reconnaissance vanguards. During the day, there were reconnaissance planes sent by the navy to patrol, so it was impossible to detect large-scale Chinese troops.
This place is nearly 60 kilometers away from the west of Shanghai, unless the Chinese have wings, they can move the army of ten thousand people overnight.
But no matter how confused he was, Sadao Ushima immediately sent a telegram to Yanagawa Heisuke.
Heisuke Yanagawa, who heard this news, was as unbelievable as Sadao Niujima. He was not surprised that the Chinese reinforcements would enter Songe Castle through the Shirakawa Port Bridge at such a terrible speed, but that he did not believe that the Chinese commander would have such great courage.
China has completely lost air supremacy, and Songjiang is surrounded by nearly 100,000 armies. Not to mention sending an infantry division, even three or five, it will basically throw fat into the tiger's mouth. This is a dead land.
The Chinese defenders in Songjiang City have delayed his 10th Army for nearly four days and nights. From a strategic perspective, they have completed their mission.
Because they, the Chinese in western Shanghai have withdrawn at least half of their troops. Although their heroic battles made Yanagawa Heisuke gritted his teeth in hatred, from the perspective of a purely soldier, Yanagawa Heisuke still admired the Chinese commander in the city.
Yanagawa Heisuke had even thought about it. After the castle was broken, he found the highest commander of the Songe defender. He would shoot him and then bury him.
But this kind of courtesy is only for outstanding soldiers who can compete with his 10th Army for several days, rather than those Chinese high-ranking officials who performed extremely poorly in the war.
Yanagawa Heisuke could not find out why they had such courage.
unless......
The commander of the 10th Japanese Army, who was walking in the command center with his head down and thought for several minutes, suddenly froze.
Looking into the distance with some difficulty, he seemed to have found the reason.
But it was not because of Baga's reinforcements.
Instead, he seemed to have made a huge mistake.
He believed in top secret information from China too much.
This thing is not necessarily true.
Perhaps, from its source, it is fake and completely deceiving.
Since the Chinese cannot have reinforcements, why can't they run away?
He was fooled by the Chinese! In an instant, the lieutenant general commander, who was enlightened, felt that the soles of his feet were cold.
"Master Commander, what's wrong?" Sakai Tokutaro, who had been with Yanagawa Heisuke, asked quietly and carefully.
The commander of the brigade, who was praised by the outside world as the most unlucky major general brigade of the 10th Army, was originally cautious. In addition to his lieutenant general division commander and chief of staff of the army command, the 11th infantry brigade under his command almost lost its combat effectiveness. It was not that Yanagawa Heisuke used his command center to comfort him, so he could only hide in the command center to drink wine. Of course, he was even more of a human being with his tail between his tail.
The soft voice, those who didn't know thought that the Japanese Army Major General had quietly practiced the "Sunflower Book".
"Sakai Kan, we might have been fooled?" Heisuke Yanagawa, who had calmed his mind, had humiliation surged on his face and a fierce light appeared in his eyes.
"What do you mean?" Sakai Tokutaro's heart skipped a beat.
Although this person is labeled as unlucky, he is not stupid.
The telegram sent by Sadao Niujima just now has two possibilities: reinforcements came from China; the Chinese ran away.
If the commander judged that he had been fooled, wouldn’t it mean that the Chinese had escaped?
To put it bluntly, the passionate telegrams sent by the Chinese in Songjiang City to their superiors are just a cover. However, it was not to fool their superiors, but to deceive them.
"Order the heavy artillery brigade to stop the artillery attack and inform the front to send an infantry team to quickly approach the Chinese defense line, tell them to work quickly. If I guess well, there will be no Chinese in the city, and there will be no one." After the order was given, Yanagawa Hei helps to sit on the chair.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! If you don’t care about Tokutaro Sakai, it seems that you have exhausted all your strength.
If the facts prove his guess, then he will be completely defeated in the Battle of Songjiang.
A general with an army of 100,000 was carried by a Chinese army that seemed to be easily crushed by more than 30,000 people for four days, and then he made a fist and was still here clenched and was planning to do something big. The feeling was beyond words.
If you have to compare it, it would be like a strong man being kicked by a young girl who could have been pressed on the ground and rubbed hard. Then he smiled and hooked his Yanagawa Koro's chin. Be good, don't worry, wait for you tonight! In the end, there was nothing.
Unwilling to deal with Tokutaro Sakai, it is naturally the famous lieutenant general commander of the 10th Army that felt that the thin man in front of him was unlucky. If I say something more to him, he might be killed by him!
Yanagawa Heisuke's mind was quite flexible and he guessed the truth.
He cursed that the Lieutenant General Commander was not a thing. The Japanese infantry squad arrived at the city defense fortification without any danger.
No one.
Not only is there no one in the fortifications of the city wall.
The city of Songjiang is also quiet, so quiet that it is creepy.
Dozens of infantry broke into the city defense in offensive formations, and did not encounter the imagined rain of bullets until they entered the deeper part of the city.
As the communication soldiers ran out frantically, more and more Japanese infantrymen stepped into the city.
The military flag representing victory was planted on the top of the city wall, and the sound of cheering victory resounded throughout Songjiang.
Before a single shot was released, a man had occupied a city that had been hard before he died. This was a matter of celebration for ordinary infantrymen.
However, the Japanese generals who were at a military meeting several hours ago, who were determined to fight the Chinese to death, once again unify their expressions.
The face looked as ugly as if he had swallowed a mouthful of warmth.
Too much, too much.
Baga, what about the promise to fight to the death with one soldier?
That's it?
You didn't stay any soldiers or soldiers!
No, to be precise, there is not even a dog. Except for the Japanese, there is no one watching, and they laugh awkwardly, and the happiness index is almost 0.
Winning, all wins so badly, this is how the Japanese commanders at all levels feel at this moment.
But, the frustration is just the beginning.
The worries are still there.
Although the Chinese, whose feet were oiled, did not leave any living things, they still left a lot of dead things in the city.
It wasn't the corpse of a Japanese infantry that was almost stinking and still left in the ruins.
