Chapter 182 The battle report is wrong?
A few days later, the news of the riot at the Special High Section finally spread to the upper echelons of the Japanese military in Shanghai.
This explosive news quickly attracted the interest of many people as soon as it appeared.
You know, the Special High Section is different from other departments.
They have independent law enforcement powers, which means that they can directly approve arrests without any reports.
A Chinese man put a gun to the head of the Special High Section chief in front of the consul of the Chinese Consulate in Shanghai.
Tsk tsk tsk...
This kind of scene is very exciting just thinking about it...
What is even more intriguing is the Special High Section’s attitude towards handling this matter.
After being harassed by Chen Yang, the Special High Police acted as if nothing had happened.
Not to mention accountability and detention, they didn't even say a harsh word. When did the Special High Police become so cowardly? They don't even dare to say a harsh word.
Some people even say that the Special High Police now regards Chen Yang as a taboo.
All information related to the material transfer center, including cases related to Chen Yang himself, was directly transferred back to the consulate and handled by the Chinese Affairs Team.
The Shanghai market is bustling with activity, and Wanjialing is even more lively.
September of the 27th year of the Republic of China.
The Battle of Wanjialing had lasted for four days.
Sugita Yasushi stood at the rear of the position, looking ahead with a telescope from time to time...
It's been three days.
Under his command, the 113th Regiment has demonstrated an extremely tenacious fighting spirit and has made considerable progress.
Even though they have been driven deep into Wanjialing by the Nationalist Army, they can still use guns and artillery to block the enemies coming from all directions without being at a disadvantage.
Although on the surface the war situation was under their control and the National Army could not do anything to them, Sugita Yasuji knew it very well.
The supplies they had could not keep up with the consumption of the war. The rations and ammunition carried by each soldier were not enough to support them in a sustained fight.
The best way is to break out as quickly as possible.
However, the other side obviously also knew their weakness of insufficient supplies, and simply surrounded them without attacking, thus consuming their manpower.
At this rate of progress, it would not take a few days for them to be surrounded and killed by Xue Boling's troops due to insufficient supply of materials.
"Signalman, have you contacted the headquarters?"
"When will our reinforcements arrive?"
"Reporting to Colonel Sugita, the headquarters has urgently summoned the 101st Division to launch a strong attack on the periphery."
"They hope we can hold our ground and wait for reinforcements to arrive."
"Eight wild deer."
"Hold on, how can I hold on? I'm surrounded by the Nationalist troops on all sides. How can I hold on?"
"Connect me to the aviation brigade and request air artillery support."
"Order the 103rd Regiment to prepare for a strong attack and break out from the side."
"Hi……"
Wanjialing Outskirts...
After receiving the distress signal from the 101th Division, the Japanese 106st Division quickly mobilized troops to the Wanjialing location for rescue.
But this time the rescue operation was not as smooth as expected.
Xue Boling seemed determined to trap the 106th Division in Wanjialing.
To this end, the most capable 4th Army was deployed at the forefront of Wanjialing in order to prevent the 101st Division from breaking the encirclement.
Moreover, it is not just that, in order to deal with the Japanese air artillery support.
Xue Boling applied to the Prime Minister to borrow all 200 aircraft and an aviation brigade that had just been donated by the Soviet Union.
Behind the position, the commander of the 101rd Regiment of the 103st Division, Matsui Nagataro, put down his binoculars and said, "Order, the 112th Regiment and the 116th Squadron, prepare for battle and replace the 114th Regiment on the battlefield."
"The rear is ready for artillery support at any time,"
"Hi," the herald responded and hurried out to convey the combat order.
Matsui Nagataro looked solemn, with a slightly bitter look on the corners of his mouth.
The 106th Division's operation was too risky. Without sufficient supplies, the soldiers only brought six days of dry food and dared to attack the rear of the National Army.
Not only did the operation fail, but it was surrounded on all sides by the Nationalist army.
According to the reconnaissance information of the Air Force Brigade, the National Army dispatched at least 106 troops this time to wipe out the th Division.
In order to save this team, the 101st Division also took great pains.
The 114th Regiment had been attacking the position for two consecutive days, but the enemy seemed to be well prepared and held its position tightly and refused to retreat.
The way this unit fought was completely different from the previous ragtag armies.
"boom--"
A cannon shot was heard.
Matsui Nagataro's thoughts were soon interrupted by a loud muffled sound from the battlefield ahead.
Before he could react, muffled "boom" sounds rang out again. Even from a few miles away, he could feel the ground shaking.
"Baga, what's wrong with the artillery? The 114th Regiment hasn't withdrawn yet, who told them to fire?"
Matsui Nagataro was instantly furious. He saw through the telescope that his soldiers were moving backwards in an orderly manner and had not yet completely widened the distance between them and the National Army.
A sudden artillery attack at this time could easily cause accidental injuries to the empire's soldiers.
"Report to Colonel Matsui, it's not our artillery fire." The messenger said in a frightened tone: "It's the artillery of the Kuomintang army on the opposite side."
"Impossible. How can these poor fellows get so many artillery pieces?"
"Based on this frequency, there must be at least 50 artillery battalions. Where do they get so many artillery pieces?"
It is no wonder that Matsui Nagataro refused to believe it. During the attacks in the past few days, the number of times the National Army artillery fired could be counted on one hand, and it had never been so intensive.
But the continuous "boom" sounds just now, even if I didn't count carefully, I'm afraid there were more than fifty...
How could the national army have so many cannons?
Even if they did, why would they be willing to use it like this?
However, even if he refused to believe what he saw, what could he do? The enemy's artillery fire poured down like crazy.
Moreover, an extremely strange scene appeared on the battlefield.
When encountering an artillery attack, everyone's first reaction is to crawl on the ground to avoid the artillery attack.
Even the commander of the 114th Regiment, Mitsui Masaru, was no exception...
However, this battle was completely different from the previous ones.
Countless soldiers crawled on the ground to avoid the bombardment of the Kuomintang's "artillery shells", but after they lay down, they could never get up again.
"Report," Adjutant Ren Tongsheng ran in waving a battle report at the Lushan front command center.
"Good news, good news, Commander, a great victory at the front."
"The 4th Army won a great victory in the battle against the 101st Division."
"The Japanese 114th, 116th and 123rd Regiments were repelled,"
"Good fight." Xue Boling was extremely excited upon hearing this. This time he had signed a military order in front of the Prime Minister.
The 106th Division must be kept in Wanjialing.
"Adjutant Ren, is there something wrong with your battle report?" Xue Boling took the battle report from Ren Tongsheng and asked in confusion.
