In two days, the special marines commanded by Commander Okawauchi No. 7 lost three brigades.

This is the eternal pain in his heart.

A hurdle that could never be overcome was suddenly uncovered by Commander Yoshizumi Ryofu.

It was reported in Okawauchi that Commander Seven was so angry that his face turned red and green, and he gasped and said: "Even if there are only three thousand soldiers.

I can also hold the line of defense. When I was fighting alone in Shanghai, everyone was still far away and had not come over.

The Marine Corps held the line as well. It's still the same now."

Matsui Iwane saw that the topic had deviated from the direction and quickly stopped: "Gentlemen! We are only discussing the movements of the national army.

We will discuss other issues later.”

"Hai!" The lieutenant generals, major generals, colonels, and lieutenants present all responded together.

In their view, there are really only two ways that the national army can do, either in the city or to fight against the 11th Division.

Without the assistance of the Navy's Third Fleet, the city's defense line would indeed be difficult to defend.

However, the Japanese army deployed not only the Marine Corps in the urban area, but also the 16th Infantry Division, the 13th Infantry Division, the Puppet Yuzhishan Brigade and other teams.

The strength is very different from when the war started. Even if the national army really increases its offensive intensity, it may not be able to gain much benefit.

What if the National Army attacks the 11th Infantry Division in the outer direction?

There are really some problems.

After a long discussion, we finally decided: “The battle in urban Shanghai will remain like this.

The decisive victory was still outside the city, so Chongteng detachment and the 16th Infantry Division were sent to support the 11th Division.

Strive to break through the northern line of the national army's Wufu Line defense fortifications.

As long as this goal is achieved, the fighting in downtown Shanghai will also stop."

Once the decision was made, Chongteng's detachment and the 16th Infantry Division immediately began preparations.

Now that the Navy's Third Fleet was missing to assist in transporting soldiers, Matsui Iwane suddenly felt in a dilemma.

The transfer of more than 30,000 soldiers is a big project. Although there are many cargo ships and passenger ships in Shanghai.

But not every shipping company is willing to send Japanese soldiers to the battlefield.

They have always been dominated by the Navy's Third Fleet, using shipping companies run by the Japanese to transport soldiers.

What now? Without the Third Fleet of the Navy, we can only ask the Second Air Force to escort us.

The Japanese were busy adding troops to the area defended by the 11th Division, and Wei Mingyang led the Second Battalion to Baoshan County.

When he entered Baoshan County again, there was a team of more than 800 people behind him.

Among this team of more than 600 people, there are more than 600 infantrymen and more than 100 artillerymen.

The three infantry companies are all equipped with four Type 92 infantry guns and two tanks, which is very foreign.

There was also an artillery battery behind it. The equipment of this artillery battery was a bit miscellaneous: a Nissan Type 89 150mm howitzer,

A Krupp 150mm howitzer and an 88mm anti-aircraft gun.

Thirty artillery tractors drove all the way over, and the second battalion had already replaced its guns with guns, becoming a fully mechanized team.

It is no longer the dozens of people who entered the city at the beginning.

As soon as these soldiers from the Second Battalion appeared in Baoshan County, Lu Jingrong could tell: they were different from the soldiers added by the Third Battalion.

Completely different!

The spirit of the soldiers of the second battalion was very different. They walked with a wind and had sharp eyes. They did not look like newcomers who had just entered the battlefield.

It's like he is a veteran who has just come off the battlefield.

There was a murderous look in his eyes, and he looked like he was going to fight if he disagreed with anyone.

Yao Ziqing also saw something different, and sighed inwardly: It turns out that kindness does not control troops!

This Wei Mingyang killed forty-five recruits on the first day.

After two days, these security team members completely changed their appearance.

They all looked in high spirits, and it was impossible to tell how anxious they were when they passed by Baoshan County.

Although the 400 people he had added to his staff had heard the gunshots by now.

But it has not been through actual combat, so there is no way to compare with others.

Everyone can see the difference between the two teams.

When Wei Mingyang arrived in Baoshan County, it was not just as simple as passing by and gathering.

He also wants to take away the six tanks stored here.

Five of the tanks were driven away intact, but one tank had a problem and it was unrealistic to drag it for such a long distance.

I plan to store it temporarily and say that I will drive it away after finding someone to repair it.

Battalion Commander Yao Ziqing wanted to keep five tanks in his team several times, but he looked at the current equipment of the Second Battalion.

It has long surpassed the firepower and equipment of an infantry battalion. Even the Central Military Training Team's firepower and equipment are not as strong as theirs.

When the five tanks were initially put into Baoshan County, they were only said to be hiding in the city for street fighting, but it was not clearly stated that they were assigned to the Third Battalion.

Now Wei Mingyang said that the crisis in Baoshan County has been resolved and he wants to take the tanks away, which seems to have a reason.

Battalion Commander Yao really couldn't speak, so he asked Wei Mingyang for these five tanks.

He found the regiment commander Lu: "Regiment seat! The second battalion already has six tanks, these five tanks should be allocated to the third battalion!

The firepower configuration of the second battalion also includes twelve infantry guns, two howitzers, and one anti-aircraft gun.

Their firepower configuration is so strong, leave five tanks to us!"

Captain Lu Jingrong and Battalion Commander Yao are sons and daughters, and their hearts must be towards him.

But he sighed and said: "I'm afraid it won't work this time!

The danger of Baoshan can be relieved, right here in the Second Camp.

Look at it now: the battlefield is still being cleaned outside, and our group is heading to Luodian.

Where is this place for our group to go?

Obviously, let the second battalion go and take the lead. The better the equipment of his battalion, the easier it will be to fight the next battle.

Ziqing, let’s give in this time!”

Yao Ziqing could only sigh: "Okay!"

In fact, he also knew that the Second Battalion only needed tanks and did not require mortars or heavy machine guns.

The current strength of the Third Battalion has also increased a lot compared to when it entered Baoshan County.

When the 583rd Regiment set off from Baoshan County: Without comparison, there would be no gap.

Even the officers and soldiers of the 36th Division could see the gap between the two battalions. One was in the sky and the other was in the ground.

Six of the eleven tanks of the Second Battalion were leading the way, with a dozen soldiers sitting on each tank.

Thirty tractor-trailers filled with soldiers followed behind. The twelve infantry cannons were not dismantled at all, but were dragged into the carriage in their entirety.

Some infantry guns have their muzzles facing the front, while others face the rear.

Three cannons were towed behind it.

Finally, after five tanks, there was not a single soldier in this infantry battalion on foot.

The third battalion was no longer able to do so, as the front troops were all on foot.
Chapter completed!
