It was reported in Okawa that the Seventh Commander had just smashed something in the room. The Japs outside the door heard the sound of breaking things, and no Japs dared to enter.

After their commander finished venting his anger, his voice finally calmed down, and Konoe Noden heard the order and left.

There were originally six brigades, but now there are only five brigades left.

Looking at his five brigade captains, Okawachi reported that the seventh commander did not hide anything and informed the five brigade captains that the sixth brigade had been destroyed.

In an instant, the five captains immediately exploded:

The captain of the Zhongshan Hailine Brigade of the First Battalion roared with red eyes: "Revenge! Kill all the defenders at Wusongkou! Kill them all!"

"Kill! We must kill them all! Avenge Kato-kun!" Captain Kagawa Taro of the second battalion said.

Captain Shimoda Yu of the Third Battalion said with tears in his eyes: "You died before we left the army! Kato-kun, you died so miserably!"

Even after his death, his body was not found."

There were more than a thousand Japanese soldiers in the entire Sixth Marine Corps, plus the corpses of nearly five thousand Japanese soldiers in the Navy fleet, all of which were soaked in the Yangtze River:

Some drifted with the water, and some temporarily sank to the bottom of the river and would float up after some time.

The Japanese had no intention of salvaging these corpses, they just wanted revenge.

Captain Kurimoto Santo of the Fourth Brigade also squeezed out a few tears: "Your Excellency, Commander! The Fourth Brigade is willing to set off immediately to avenge Kato-kun."

"The Fifth Battalion requests that we set out immediately! Revenge for all the warriors of the Sixth Battalion!" Captain Shimamoto Yusuke of the Fifth Battalion was also not to be far behind.

"Yo Xi! Your will to fight is very high. I will contact the ship immediately and prepare to land at Wusongkou!"

"Hai!"

The five group captains and the staff of the Marine Corps Headquarters were pointing on the map where to land this time.

Commander Kiyoshi Hasegawa's order came down: "The Marine Corps immediately dispatched two brigades to prepare and will meet up with the First Air Force on the north bank of Wusongkou tomorrow."

"Nani? First Air Force?" Commander Okawauchiden Seven was a little confused at first, but he soon understood.

This is the strongest aircraft carrier battle group that has recently been transferred from Nanpu. The First Air Force has two aircraft carriers.

It's good now. The Fourth Brigade and the Fifth Brigade have just taken the initiative to ask for a fight. They are the two teams sent out this time.

Commander Susumu Fujita of the Japanese Third Infantry Division learned that the Sixth Infantry Regiment, which had been sent to attack two forts and one county town, had accomplished nothing for a whole day.

Not only that, the Third Battalion of the Sixth Regiment was completely wiped out when it attacked the Wusongkou Fort.

Such a result of the battle was incomprehensible to Commander Fujita, who could not imagine how this situation could have happened.

He just ordered Captain Cang Yongchen to launch an attack on Baoshan County, Shizilin Fort, and Wusongkou Fort immediately after dawn, and Wusongkou must be captured.

After this order was issued, I quickly received a combat order from Matsui Iwane: "The Third Infantry Division's current priority target is the Wusongkou Fort.

At the Wusongkou Fort, there was a trio of Chinese mortars that destroyed thirty-five Imperial aircraft. During the day, they had wiped out the entire Third Fleet of the Navy.

Such a dangerous person, we must use all our strength to annihilate him at the Songshan Fort tomorrow."

"Hai!" After receiving the telegram, Commander Fujita immediately retracted the order he had just given.

The latest order was issued to the Sixth Infantry Regiment: "The Sixth Infantry Regiment, concentrate all forces, and be sure to wipe out all the national troops in the Wusongkou Fort tomorrow."

"Hai!" Captain Kuranaga Tatsuji, although he didn't know what happened, made the division commander's battle plan change within an hour.

But it still agreed very firmly.

The Japanese army generally did not engage in night battles. During the day, they had dug out complete defenses at their base.

Marching at night is impossible and will never be possible.

The order issued by the Regiment Commander Cang Yongchenji was also at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning: attack the Second Infantry Battalion of Shizilin Fort, and the 70mm Field Artillery Battalion of the Li Artillery will move to Wusongkou Fort.

The 1st Infantry Brigade, the 4th Infantry Brigade, the 150mm Howitzer Battalion and the 120mm Cannon Battalion of the field artillery that attacked Baoshan County set out for Wusongkou Fort at 6 o'clock in the morning.

For the tasks assigned by the division commander, Captain Cang Yongchenji carried out the tasks very seriously.

That night, the 583rd Regiment in three places, except Wusongkou Fort, Shizilin Fort, and Baoshan County in the center of the battlefield, slept peacefully.

The entire left wing army and central army were mobilized nervously that night.

Six divisions and one regiment need to be mobilized at night.

The national army had no air supremacy and could only take advantage of the darkness to adjust its troops. Otherwise, after daybreak, large troop movements would be violently attacked by the Japanese air force.

At 3:30 in the morning, a regiment of the 36th Division arrived at Shizilin Fort. At 3:43, a regiment of the 36th Division arrived in Baoshan County. At 4:15, an infantry regiment and an artillery unit of the 36th Division arrived.

The company arrived at Wusongkou Fort.

The 36th Division of the National Army is definitely a direct descendant of Chairman Chiang Kai-shek. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is his biological son.

The division consists of two brigades and four regiments, as well as two supplementary regiments, totaling 14,000 people.

The troops directly under the division include: an artillery battalion with three companies equipped with a total of 12 German-made 75mm Krupp Mountain Cannon (or 75mm Bofors Mountain Cannon);

A combat defense artillery battery is equipped with 4 German-made 37mm Pak35 combat defense guns;

An anti-aircraft gun is equipped with a company of four Swiss Origen guns.

In addition, the division is directly affiliated with: an engineering battalion, a communications battalion, a baggage battalion, a special agent battalion, and a health team.

The regiment is directly affiliated with a mortar company, equipped with six imitation French 82mm Brand mortars; a small artillery company, equipped with six 20mm Soloton machine guns.

The battalion is directly under a machine gun company, equipped with six Maxim imitation Type 24 water-cooled heavy machine guns and two 82mm mortars.

Each squad is equipped with a medium-sized rifle, a domestic imitation Czech ZB26 light machine gun, two MP18 submachine guns, and officers above the squad leader are equipped with a rapid-fire Mauser pistol.

Commander Liu Ying of the 215th Regiment, who possesses the best equipment in the national army, does not look down upon the 2nd Battalion of the 583rd Regiment, which is also a direct lineage.

After all, although the Ninety-Eighth Division is also a direct lineage, it is still far behind compared to the Thirty-Sixth Division.

Entering Wusongkou Fort, Commander Liu immediately ordered Wei Mingyang: "Let your people withdraw from the fort defensive position.

I've taken over the defense here."

Only then did Wei Mingyang know that the 36th Division would take over the outer defense of the fort.

To be precise, it was taken over by the 215th Regiment.
Chapter completed!
