“What are you doing for a living? So many people can’t even defeat these 150,000 Japanese troops, you good-for-nothings, you good-for-nothings!”
The battle situation in front was not favorable, and Principal Jiang lost his temper several times in succession, scolding a group of national army generals.
But they deserved this scolding. The national army had planned this battle plan for a long time and made sufficient preparations for it. There were more than 1,000 artillery pieces alone, and the shells were fired openly. Moreover, the Japanese army was exposed in the wilderness, without any fortifications and bunkers. One shot could at least blow up several devils, and even kill dozens of people if they were lucky!
When did they have such powerful firepower?
However, with such powerful firepower support, they were still unable to take down the enemy, and could not successfully join forces with the friendly forces that were responsible for the blocking mission, causing the friendly forces that had worked hard to block the enemy to suffer heavy casualties from the front and back, and what was even more deadly was that the Japanese troops in the encirclement had even begun to retreat from the Yangtze River by boat!
If they can’t If they wipe out this enemy, then they may end up with nothing and work in vain!
This is a result that Principal Jiang cannot tolerate and cannot accept. What’s worse is that the battle plan this time was formulated with the help of the Hans people. The progress of the battle is exactly as the Hans people expected, but they have been unable to achieve the expected results due to their own abilities. This made him furious with the generals of the National Army who were responsible for the frontal attack and scolded them for being a bunch of good-for-nothings!
The grievance in the hearts of the scolded generals of the National Army!
It’s not that they didn’t fight hard, but that their abilities were limited!
The combat quality of the Japanese army was fully reflected in this messed up battle.
After they were surrounded, they were indeed very panicked at first. The Japanese army in the front suffered more than half of their casualties from the artillery fire of the National Army and was completely defeated.
But the Japanese army in the middle and the back stabilized their position , while they broke out and sought support from friendly forces, they actually launched a counterattack against the attacking national army, blocking the national army’s offensive. A large number of Japanese machine gunners lay on the ground, set up machine guns, and fired indiscriminately at the crowds of both sides!
At the same time, the Japanese artillery fire also began to bombard the attacking army of the Celestial Empire, regardless of the fact that they still had thousands of soldiers intertwined with the Celestial Empire’s army!
To be honest, only the Japanese could do this kind of crazy fighting style!
In their opinion, if sacrificing those thousands of soldiers can exchange for the stability of their own positions, then such a sacrifice is completely worthwhile!
Therefore, without the Celestial Empire’s action, they started to shoot themselves!
The other Japanese soldiers did not move at this scene as if it was a matter of course. This madness shocked the Celestial Empire’s army.!
When this round of firepower strikes ended, they immediately faced the threat of enemy machine gun firepower. They had to slow down the speed of the attack and remove the enemy’s machine gun firepower points before they could continue the attack.
But the Japanese army also understood this, so once their machine guns were knocked out by the national army’s artillery fire, they immediately put in new machine guns to fill the gaps, resulting in the national army’s frontal attack being blocked!
The dense machine guns blocked the national army’s attack, giving the middle and rear Japanese a little time to build a defense line, and the Japanese soldiers’ civil engineering work was very fast.
They desperately dug the soil and dug trenches, and then relied on this very shallow and simple trench to fight with the national army.
With the protection of the trenches, the casualties of the Japanese army suddenly dropped a lot.
The difficulty of the national army’s artillery fire to kill them on a large scale suddenly increased several times!
This allowed the Japanese army to gradually stabilize the situation. Although they were still surrounded, they could calmly arrange for the wounded to retreat by boat from the riverside!
If this situation continues, I am afraid that this Japanese army will break out of the heavy encirclement of the national army, and the hundreds of thousands of national army in the south may be annihilated.
Therefore, President Jiang felt the urgency of time and he could not wait any longer.
According to the current speed of the national army, they need at least five days to break through the enemy’s defense, but after five days, the national army in the south may have been completely annihilated. By then, their encirclement will break without attack, and it will become impossible to eat this Japanese army!
Therefore, President Jiang decided to launch the most violent attack at the cost of huge losses, even if it means tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of casualties, to eat this Japanese army!
Once this Japanese army is eaten, they can teach the Japanese army a lesson and let them know that even if the Celestial Empire is backward and poor, it is definitely not weak and can be bullied. Anyone who wants to invade the Celestial Empire should weigh their own strength and calculate what price they will pay!
Just when President Jiang was preparing to fight to the death and launch a fierce attack regardless of the cost of casualties, Chen Cheng’s telegram came.
President Jiang knew that the battle in the south was very tragic, so he subconsciously thought that Chen Cheng’s telegram was asking for help, which made him a little dissatisfied with Chen Cheng. More than 100,000 people couldn’t hold on so soon?
However, when he saw the content of the telegram, President Jiang’s eyes suddenly lit up!
“Good job, Chen Cheng. I really didn’t misjudge you! Good job, tell Chen Cheng that I approved his proposal and let him execute it immediately!”
The telegram in Principal Jiang’s hand was Chen Cheng’s battle plan to use the First Armored Division to launch a charge against the Japanese army, attack from the east and west, break through the Japanese army’s defense line, and cooperate with the friendly forces attacking from the front to annihilate the enemy.
This battle plan is very bold, and of course very risky. If it fails, the First Armored Division will probably be wiped out!
But Principal Jiang did not hesitate at all. You can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing your child. The elite troops are used at this time. If they are kept hidden, what’s the use of the elite troops?
After receiving Principal Jiang’s call back, Chen Cheng showed a smile at the corner of his mouth.
He received a reply so quickly, which shows that Principal Jiang attaches great importance to his proposal. As long as he can complete this task, his position in Principal Jiang’s heart will surely be more stable!
