Rebirth of the National Marshal

"Reporting to the commander, I am Song Jingshan, the company commander of the 41rd Company of the Artillery Regiment of the 101st Infantry Division of the st Army of the Third Army. The dispatch order is with our regiment commander and he is coming over." Following Song Jingshan's gaze, he saw a colonel walking towards him, escorted by a dozen guards.

101 Infantry Division? The officer at the dispatch station remembered what kind of army this was. This was the ever-victorious army of President Jiang's nephew. No wonder they had such good equipment. The division commander Mao Yuanshan was no ordinary person. He was the nephew of President Jiang's first wife. Although President Jiang had divorced his first wife, everyone in the party and the country knew that President Jiang had only one son. Although they were divorced, Mrs. Mao still lived in the old house of the Jiang family. The old people in the family also recognized this daughter-in-law. Mrs. Mao only had this nephew in her hometown.

If we only talk about the background, I guess there is nothing to be in awe of this army. The main thing is their combat record, which was all obtained at the hands of the Japanese devils. There is absolutely no exaggeration. It took them just over a year to develop from a security team to the pillars of the party and the country. The tens of thousands of officers and soldiers in the entire division have basically fought through bloody battles. It is said that the North China Expeditionary Army would become weak when they heard their name.

At this time, the casualty ratio between the National Army and the Japanese Army was basically 101: or even :. In some places, it was :. However, the st Infantry Division was different. Their casualty ratio with the Japanese Army was an astonishing :. Of course, this is the data they announced to the public. In fact, their casualty ratio with the Japanese Army was much lower than this figure. However, if it is too shocking, it is not a good thing.

Basically according to the Japanese military's estimates, their battalion of more than a thousand people could fight against a reorganized division of the National Army. However, this formula failed when they encountered the 101st Infantry Division, and they were defeated completely.

Just as the two regimental officers were making the handover, Major General Mao Yuanshan, the division commander, came down from the second special train. All of them were wearing black German-style military uniforms. This was the most elite unit in the 101st Infantry Division. They were the guard regiment where Mao Yuanshan started his career. The regiment had more than 5000 people and had a record of defeating an entire Japanese division. This honor was second to none in the entire National Army's combat sequence.

At this moment, General Zhang Zhizhong, who was near the station, also heard about the arrival of this meritorious unit, and he hurried over.

Mao Yuanshan looked at his brothers, the jealous eyes of the foreigners, and the proud eyes of his own people. Brother Mao was happy. Haha, that's right, this buddy is the buddy who traveled through time with a strange system. I am an angry young man in the future. Today, we are really here to fight the Japanese. If it weren't for our lack of foundation, we wouldn't be able to produce any weapons. The system is also weird. Everything needs to be purchased with hard currency, or by killing the enemy's merits. Otherwise, we only have this one division? That's impossible.

"Everyone stand at attention." Mao Yuanshan immediately said loudly when he saw General Zhang Zhizhong coming over. Although he was a time traveler, he still admired this general who could command the army on horseback and govern the people on foot.

At the commander's command, the station platform, which had been a little chaotic just now, was now completely silent. Even those big-nosed foreigners had never seen such a thing, let alone these people in the country.

"Commander Mao is good at commanding the army. I, Zhang, admire him very much." Generally speaking, when high-ranking party and government officials say this, it is meant as a compliment. However, the General Zhang in front of him would not talk nonsense. Besides, he is standing here, so how could it be false?

"Commander Zhang, you are too polite. It's all thanks to Principal Jiang's good leadership and the brothers' hard training. I just took advantage of it." Mao Yuanshan straightened his body and said. Zhang Zhizhong nodded secretly in his heart. He was neither humble nor arrogant. He had a strong backing but also knew how to restrain himself. Yes, this boy will definitely have a bright future.

"Haha, I won't say any more polite words. Your 101st Infantry Division is the elite of the Party and the country. As the saying goes, you raise an army for a thousand days but deploy it for a moment. I think you all know about the battle in Shanghai. It has really come to a dangerous moment. Hundreds of thousands of troops cannot defeat tens of thousands of others. I am also ashamed." At this point, the old general felt a little uncomfortable.

In fact, at that time, many Kuomintang soldiers were also aware of the gap between China and Japan, but they believed that the gap between their German-equipped divisions and the Japanese army was not that big. However, when they really got to the battlefield, everything became clear: the combat effectiveness of the German-equipped divisions was still inferior to that of the Japanese army.

"Don't worry, Commander Zhang. I dare not say anything else this time. The Japanese want to take advantage of our 101st Division, but they don't have the nerve to do so. None of the tens of thousands of people in our division are cowards. Just give the order." Mao Yuanshan said loudly. His words were heard by hundreds of brothers in the 101st Division. All of them clenched their guns. Haha, little Japanese, you want to compete with us, but you are not our match.

Indeed, in their eyes, the Japanese are the same as us, with one head on two shoulders. Which brother doesn't have some of the kind of people who report to the Yasukuni Shrine? The North China Expeditionary Army and the Kwantung Army have seen them, so the Central China Expeditionary Army is not much more powerful.

"Okay, Commander Mao is worthy of being the elite of the Party and the country. In fact, the most serious problem now is our low morale. I need your entire 101st Infantry Division to carry all the equipment through the urban area of ​​Shanghai, so that everyone in Shanghai will know about the arrival of your ace army and cheer up the soldiers on the front line." General Zhang Zhizhong said this with some embarrassment, because he knew that there were not many air forces left in the National Army at this time. If the Japanese knew that the 101st Division was going to hold a ceremony to enter the city at this time, bombing would definitely be inevitable.
