At dawn, two attack aircraft squadrons of the 3rd Flying Regiment of the Japanese Army Air Force appeared over Jinshan County and Songjiang almost at the same time, and immediately began to bombard Jinshan County and Songjiang City indiscriminately.
Half an hour later, the Japanese attack planes returned, and then the Japanese artillery began shelling.
It was the Sixth Field Heavy Artillery Brigade that bombarded Jinshan County. In contrast, only one mountain artillery regiment plus a small number of infantry artillery from the Sixth Division bombarded Songjiang.
However, the effect of the bombardment is completely different.
The 367th Regiment guarding Jinshan County was huddled in the city, and most of the officers and soldiers were hiding in sturdy transportation buildings or tunnels. There were only a few warning sentries standing in the ruins, so the casualties were very small. The Japanese threw hundreds of soldiers in Jinshan County. Tons of shells can be said to have been thrown away in vain.
" However, the losses of the 67th Army were much heavier.
Wu Keren, like Zhang Kongyi, is also an old soldier, and their views are almost identical.
Therefore, Wu Keren placed the two divisions of the 67th Army outside Songjiang City, the 107th Division south of the New East Gate, along both sides of the highway, and the 108th Division from the west of Songjiang City to the south bank of the Suzhou River.
In other words, more than 10,000 officers and soldiers of the 67th Army are stationed outside Songjiang City.
Because the terrain of Songjiang is flat and the field of vision is wide, the officers and soldiers of the 67th Army can hardly take advantage of the terrain when building fortifications. Therefore, most of them are civil structure fortifications. Not to mention the aerial bombs of the little devils, such fortifications even have 70mm The 92 caliber infantry artillery shells cannot withstand it either.
Therefore, under the indiscriminate bombing by Japanese aviation and artillery, the officers and soldiers of the 67th Army suffered heavy casualties.
After an hour-long bombardment, the Kunisaki Detachment and the Sixth Division launched an attack on Jinshan County and Songjiang Fucheng almost simultaneously. Although the 367th Regiment only had one regiment, its strength was far less than the more than 10,000 men of the 67th Army, but due to tactics With the right combination and Zhong Yi's superb command, the 367th Regiment is in a much better situation!
After a morning of fierce fighting, the Kunisaki detachment still failed to capture the three core fortifications of the 367th Regiment, but the Sixth Division had defeated the 107th Division that stood outside Songjiang New East Gate! Zhu Zhirong, the commander of the 321st Brigade of the division, died for his country, and Wu Qian, the commander of the 319th Brigade of the division, was seriously injured! Three of the four captains below died!
The 107th Division of the Northeastern Army was really defeated!
¡¡
When the news came back to Nanjing, the top management was immediately shocked!
Chairman Chiang had originally agreed to accompany Mrs. Chiang to Meiling Palace in the afternoon, but after receiving the news of Songjiang's crisis, he immediately canceled the trip and rushed to the headquarters.
Chairman Chiang had just entered the combat hall, and Chen Cheng and other senior generals immediately came to greet him.
"Cixiu, what's going on?" Chairman Jiang frowned and asked, "Before dawn, didn't you call Zhang Fakui to confirm that the Japanese troops were still not found outside Songjiang City? Why did the Japanese troops arrive in less than half a day? Suddenly appeared in Songjiang and defeated the 107th Division?"
Chen Cheng said: "Commissioner, this should be caused by poor communication, because the Japanese army captured Jinshan County before noon yesterday, so I boldly speculated that the Japanese army had advanced to the outside of Songjiang City before dark yesterday, and Get ready to attack!"
Chairman Chiang said in a deep voice: "Even if the Japanese army had advanced to Songjiang before yesterday evening and prepared for the attack, Songjiang should not have fallen so quickly! Wu Keren's 67th Army has an army of more than 10,000 people! Zhang Kongyi's 367th Regiment only had more than a thousand people, and they were still guarding Jinshan County for half a day!"
Chen Cheng said: "The Japanese army dispatched aircraft and artillery to indiscriminately bomb the positions of the 67th Army"
"I don't want to hear this." Chairman Chiang said, "Speaking of aircraft and artillery, which unit on the Songhu battlefield has not been bombarded by Japanese aircraft and artillery? They are not the only ones in the 67th Army to be bombed!"
After a pause, Chairman Chiang said angrily: "They said they would hold on to Songjiang for at least seven days. This is only half a day. In just half a day, Songjiang was lost. In just half a day, Songjiang was lost!"
Chen Cheng whispered: "Commissioner, strictly speaking, Songjiang City has not been completely lost."
"Is there any point in fighting about this now?" Chairman Chiang said angrily, "Yes, strictly speaking, Songjiang has not been lost, but the Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway has been cut off by the Japanese army, and the troops and supplies gathered on the battlefield in the west of Shanghai have been There is no way to retreat through this railway line, what is the difference between this and the loss of Songjiang?"
Chen Cheng was immediately speechless because he couldn't find the words to refute.
Because the reason why the 67th Army was ordered to defend Songjiang was to ensure the smooth flow of the Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway.
But now?The Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway has been cut off, does it matter whether Songjiang was captured or not?
"Mother Xipi, you are a bunch of losers!" Chairman Chiang said angrily, "You said you would hold on for seven days, but you couldn't hold on for the last day. They are just a bunch of cowards! Waste!"
Bai Chongxi couldn't help it anymore and said, "Commissioner, it's meaningless to talk about this now. It's better to think about how to deal with the current crisis."
After a pause, he continued: "The Japanese army is about to capture Songjiang, and the Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway has been cut off. The Japanese army that landed at Baimaokou is about to capture Taicang and cut off the Shanghai-Nanjing Railway. If it continues, more than a hundred people will gather in the west of Shanghai. The division and the army of 500,000 are completely destroyed! So the top priority is to quickly order a retreat!"
"Yes, Commissioner, please quickly order the withdrawal of troops!"
"Jiansheng is right, we really can't delay it any longer!"
He Yingqin, Chen Cheng and other staff also agreed one after another.
"No!" Chairman Chiang flatly refused, "I also received an urgent telegram from Wei Jun from Brussels this morning. The Nine-Nation Convention will hold a meeting today and the China incident will be discussed!"
After a pause, he added: "Order the frontline troops to hold on for one more day no matter what!"
"Committee" Chen Cheng wanted to persuade him again, but Chairman Chiang interrupted him with a wave of his hand.
"Ci Xiu, I still said what I said before." Chairman Chiang said, "When considering the problem, you can't just consider the military. You must consider it from multiple aspects such as politics and economy. Staying in the west of Shanghai for one more day may cause a bigger problem. The loss will make Western countries see Japan¡¯s face more clearly, and it will also make Western countries more confident in China¡¯s determination to resist to the end, and then it will be easier to obtain assistance from Western countries in the future!¡±
Hearing this, Chen Cheng, Bai Chongxi, He Yingqin and other staff members immediately lowered their heads.
Chairman Chiang refuses to withdraw his troops, so what can they do? All we can do is continue to hold on!
Gritting his teeth, He Yingqin said in a deep voice: "Then there is nothing much to say. Now we can only give the 67th Army a death order and tell Wu Keren that even if we fight to the last soldier, we cannot let the Japanese army cross Songjiang!"
"Okay." Chairman Chiang said, "Just do it!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
