Red Alert Invincible
Chapter 107
On the morning of February 4, 1932.
The 9th Division, the 11th Division, the 14th Division, a mixed brigade, a tank brigade, and a tank brigade, totaling about 80,000 troops, successfully landed in Shanghai under the cover of three aircraft carriers and 10 cruisers of the Third Fleet.
However, the 19th Route Army stationed in Songhu could only watch the three divisions of the Japanese army and nearly 80,000 troops landing under their noses because of the Jinling government's order to shoot first and provoke incidents.
When the Japanese army landed in Shanghai, the Shanghai Dispatch Army Headquarters was established, and Senior General Shirakawa Yoshinori, the former Minister of the Cabinet, succeeded Major General Koichi Shiozawa and took overall responsibility for the war in Shanghai.
Seeing that the Japanese army was massing heavy troops, Jiang Guang, commander-in-chief of the 19th Route Army, also asked the central government for help, and the Jinling government decisively sent Zhang Zhizhong's Fifth Army to reinforce Songhu, and sent the 6th and 7th teams of the Central Air Force to fly to Shanghai to support, and at the same time sent 5,000 unarmed recruits recruited on behalf of the 19th Route Army.
As for the Japanese army's concentration of troops in Shanghai, Chairman Chiang also knew that he could not be coerced at this time, and actively contacted England, the United States, and the Soviet Union to prepare for international mediation.
At the same time, Zhang Zhizhong ordered Zhang Zhizhong to work together with the comrades of the 19th Route Army, Jiang and Cai, at a time when the country and the nation were in danger, and to earnestly obey the orders of the commander-in-chief of Chiang, and never be separated in the slightest.
While repeatedly ordering the two armies to cooperate sincerely to resist the enemy, Chairman Chiang also transferred the 10th and 83rd Divisions of the 14th Army to Zhejiang to reinforce the Shanghai War, and at the same time ordered the 18th Army in Ganzhou to be ready to reinforce Shanghai at any time.
The Second Army also began to move to Shanghai and Hangzhou, and built defensive lines in Fengjing and Wujiang.
In addition to the two armies in Shanghai, with more than 50,000 men, Chairman Chiang mobilized nearly 100,000 troops to Songhu, ready to deal with the Japanese army breaking through the defensive line of the 19th Route Army and the Fifth Army and penetrating into the hinterland of China, including elite divisions such as the 18th Army.
When Xue Lin woke up on the 3rd and got this information, the whole person was stunned.
The second reinforcement of the Japanese army mobilized three divisions and nearly 80,000 troops to Shanghai, and Chairman Jiang of the Jinling government was also stimulated by the actions of the Japanese army, and began to mobilize troops in advance, General Zhang Zhizhong's Fifth Army entered Shanghai twelve days earlier than in advance, and the transfer of other troops was also more than half a month earlier than the first Songhu War of Resistance in history!
The entire Songhu battlefield was completely disrupted and moved in an uncertain direction.
"Commander-in-chief, soldiers of the 9th Brigade of the 5th Division were found in the Japanese defense line in Pulandian, and the front-line troops were making slow progress. Chen Zhen's reminder made Xue Lin come back to his senses from the shock.
At this time, the headquarters was already full of electronic sound, the pace was hurried, staff officers and officers at all levels were busy, and Jiang Baili was also lying on the map to sketch: "The Ninth Brigade has the 11th Wing and the 21st Wing, even if they lost 5,000 people when they landed on the beach, it is conservatively estimated that at least 6,000 troops have supported the Pulandian defense line. "
"And they're all elite veterans. Jiang Baili looked up from the map.
Xue Lin propped his hands on the edge of the map, his fingers tapping on the paper, frowning and thinking deeply.
"Commander-in-Chief, here are several offensive scenarios developed by the General Staff. Chen Zhen handed over a document.
Xue Lin opened it and looked at it, his brows furrowed deeply: "Why didn't you see the attack plan of the tank regiment?"
The staff officers were slightly stunned, and then a staff officer explained: "In urban operations, tank units can only be broken into parts, and they cannot give full play to the strength of tank clusters, so we plan to use infantry combat vehicles to enter the city to cover the infantry attack." "
The improved version of the BT-7 infantry combat vehicle has a 20 mm large-caliber cannon and two 12.
7 mm heavy machine guns, and it is a proper paper shell to hit a house built of civilian brick walls, coupled with a body that can move quickly in street battles, it is indeed more suitable for dealing with the Japanese army that does not have too many anti-tank weapons and heavy weapons, but the BT-7 is too crispy, and in the street fighting, most of which are only a few tens of meters of close combat, the Japanese 37 anti-aircraft gun can still effectively penetrate the armor of the BT-7.
"Didn't the heavy tank regiment leave two battalions and a hundred KV heavy tanks? Xue Lin threw the document to Chen Zhen.
The staff officers took a breath of cold air, you must know that the tank unit of the armored division is now the trump card of the Zhenbei Army, and it is precisely because they are afraid that they will lose too many tanks in the street battle and it is difficult to explain, so the staff officers did not let the tank troops enter the street battle.
Jiang Baili was also planning the battle of the armored troops for the first time, and couldn't help asking: "I have learned about your tanks, that kind of heavy tank is very slow in the city, and the fifth division dispatched by the Japanese army this time must have brought a lot of anti-tank weapons, aren't you afraid that this heavy tank battalion will be lost in the street battle?"
Xue Lin smiled: "The front armor of the KV tank is as thick as 120 mm, and within 100 meters, it is difficult for the 37 anti-tank guns and 70 mm guns used by the Japanese army to cause actual damage to the front of the KV heavy tank. "
As a military fan, Xue Lin knows very well how powerful the KV heavy tank is, the weight of 45 tons, increased to 120 mm of front armor, the Japanese army without tungsten alloy warhead wants to penetrate the armor of the KV heavy tank, can only use more than 100 mm heavy artillery to shoot armor-piercing shells, but the Japanese army is used to acting in East Asia without tank armor power, and there are not necessarily so many anti-tank armor-piercing shells.
"Since you insist, then I have to obey your orders. Jiang Baili also hopes to participate in an armored battle.
"Order the first battalion of the heavy tank regiment to prepare for street fighting, and the infantry of each unit will cover each other's advance with the heavy tank as the center, and at the same time be ready to collect infantry tanks and cooperate tactics. Xue Lin ordered.
"Yes!" Chen Zhen personally recorded the order.
When Chen Zhen turned around to ask the Ministry of Communications to send a report, Xue Lin turned his head to Xue Si, the person in charge of intelligence.
"Contact the naval fleet and attack immediately to support Shanghai!"
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief!" Xue Si received the order, and immediately came to a radio station that had not been in use, and operated it himself.
"You still have a naval fleet?" At this moment, Jiang Baili, Tang Yue and other generals who were not part of the Red Alert system were surprised.
"It's just a small fleet. Xue Lin's face remained unchanged, as if it was just a very casual thing.
Everyone secretly speculated, what kind of cruiser it was, but where did the warships come from? Did they buy them from Western countries?
At this time, the radio operated by Xue Si sent a secret telegram to a tropical sea nearly 5,000 kilometers away.
In this sea, a huge fleet is training in the ocean, and two huge steel behemoths are running wildly across the ocean with several smaller behemoths.
In the command cabin of the bridge, Lin Yongchang laughed with joy after reading the emergency secret telegram.
"Order! The fleet returns to port to replenish and prepare to Shanghai!"
