Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 205

Chapter 205: Going shirtless when you come up? (2nd update, please subscribe)

Facing the lieutenant general's kindness, Tang Dao was grateful and could only shout in his heart that it was awesome.

Although he has great love, this person can be considered a plot against him.

Once this order is issued, as long as Tang Dao accepts it, he and the Sixing Battalion will be tied to the small broken boat of the 43rd Army.

Tang Dao himself was originally from the Sichuan Army, and has constant contact with the Sichuan Army. After such an incident, it would be strange for the Central Army bosses not to exclude him from the Central Department.

Of course, Tang Dao also knows that this kind of calculation is also human nature.

Although everyone is nominally working together to fight the Japanese, the current situation of various factions and hilltops in the military has been formed for a long time. Not to mention that it cannot be eradicated in a short period of time, even if it is given another ten or twenty years , there is no way to eliminate this stubborn disease.

If an army wants to have only one voice, it must have a unified belief. At present, in China, only the army in the north can do this.

The 43rd Army is extremely weak, so it naturally needs excellent soldiers like Tang Dao and Si Xingying. Especially Tang Dao himself is from the 152nd Regiment. For Uncle Guo and Uncle Fox, they cannot be let go.

In other words, even if Tang Dao and Si Xingying can escape from Songjiang again, from now on, wherever they go, they will have the label of Commander Guo of the 43rd Army on their foreheads.

Obviously, the lieutenant general who had issued the military order was also observing Tang Dao's reaction. Seeing that Tang Dao's expression remained unchanged, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face, and he pointed at the fortification map drawn by Tang Dao: "Deputy Director Tang, please continue, the 67th Army The military headquarters has already informed our troops three hours ago. They have set off for Songjiang and will arrive in Songjiang before nightfall. To save time, our 43rd Army has joined forces with the Songjiang Security Group to build Songjiang defense first. "

“Why it is necessary to spend huge manpower and material resources to dig trenches between the air raid shelters and the city wall fortifications? It is naturally to prevent our infantry from being attacked by Japanese artillery and Japanese aircraft before entering the fortifications;

Secondly, when the Japanese army conquered the city, our army still had a second line of trenches to resist it;

My plan is not only to dig communication trenches between the air raid shelters and city wall fortifications, but also to dig trenches connecting various fortification points in the city with the headquarters as the center, to fortify layers of defenses, and to use every street and house as a position until the Japanese Kill all our troops. "

Tang Dao took a pencil and drew several circles around the center of the city, making the generals' eyes twitch.

No wonder Tang Dao brought more than a hundred men and a beaten infantry regiment to resist!

This guy is really a ruthless person.

Be ruthless to your enemies and even more ruthless to yourself.

Let's leave aside the defense outside the city. The defense inside the city is like several concentric circles with different radii, with the houses and streets selected by each department as points, and then connected by communication trenches. The Japanese army will not attack the city. Once it invades, the Chinese position must be peeled off layer by layer like an onion.

This move is a fusion of street fighting and positional warfare, a very genius design.

These experienced generals can imagine that any army that wants to break this position will pay a heavy price.

But being ruthless to the enemy is not the most important thing.

The key point is that Tang Dao is more ruthless to his own people. His fortification construction and firepower point design did not leave any escape route for the more than 30,000 people present and not yet present.

So that's exactly what you want to do with your horse and cart, hoping to completely occupy Songjiang? Okay, then kill all the tens of thousands of us.

Didn't we agree to stay on guard for three days and nights from the time the Japanese army attacks? How come you set yourself up for a decisive battle, a fight to the death?

Fortunately for the generals of the 43rd Army, they had crawled out from among the dead after a **** battle in Dachang Town. This was not the first time they came up bare-chested and carried kitchen knives to show their attitude in a deadly battle, but the prince Yu Ke's condition was not good, and his fair face suddenly turned pale. If he doesn't leave, it's not because he wants to fight the Japanese, but because he has orders from the mountain. And those who disobey orders during war will die!

Based on his many years of experience as an official, if he disobeys orders at this juncture, let alone a major general, even if he is a general, the theater headquarters will probably sacrifice his head to the flag.

But he doesn't want to die! After holding off the Japanese army for three days and nights, there was still hope. Fortunately, the deputy director of Xin Ketang cut off this hope himself.

"You melon boy, you are really brave, you put the whole army to a certain death situation. I know, I think you are using the method of burning cauldron and sinking the boat to cut off the retreat. I don't know, I thought you were... I have been entrusted by someone to take the entire 67th Army into the pit! I don't think Commander Wu can handle your battle plan.” Lieutenant General Guo glanced at Wang Gongyu, who looked pale. Pointing at Tang Dao, he smiled and cursed.

"However, as the saying goes, you will live after death. If this is not the case, everyone will only think about resisting for three days and nights before leaving. It is natural to have the fear of death, and then this battle will be much more difficult to fight. ." Before Tang Dao could explain, Lieutenant General Guo changed the topic again, turned his body slightly, looked at the generals, and asked in a low voice: "Everyone, do you think so?"

The words were not very clear, but the meaning was very clear. All the major generals, including the pale-faced Wang Gongyu, could only nod their heads.

"Okay, since we are all determined to serve the country to the death, I will take the lead for Commander Wu. For the time being, we will use Deputy Director Tang to construct the design of the fortifications. From now on, the entire army will eliminate the necessary reconnaissance and security personnel outside the city and fully invest in The four walls and the fortifications in Songjiang City are being constructed, and we will strive to complete the construction of the fortifications before the Japanese army arrives." Lieutenant General Guo made the final decision.

The reason why there are city wall fortifications is naturally because Tang Dao also designed many firepower points on the city wall.

If the personnel lie on the fortifications at the crenellations of the city wall and shoot, they will be easily attacked by the Japanese mountain artillery, infantry artillery and grenade launchers. Therefore, Tang Dao intends to take out the four to five meter thick city wall like the Sihang Warehouse. 'shooting hole'.

Of course, city walls are different from concrete walls. The so-called 'shooting holes' should actually be called 'bunkers' buried inside the city walls.

It is to carry out civil engineering work from behind the city wall, use strong enough wood as support, dig out a space that can accommodate 5 to 6 people in a certain section of the city wall, the space is still half a meter away from penetrating the city wall, and then dig out a space about one meter. square meters of shooting holes.

Then, ten millimeter thick steel plates, logs and sandbags were added inside the shooting hole. With this level of defense, it could withstand even a frontal bombardment from a 75-meter field gun, unless the Japanese army used larger caliber cannons or aerial bombs. Blow down the entire city wall.

There will be six to eight such bunker designs on each of the four city walls. It is undoubtedly extremely difficult to connect such bunkers inside the city wall. So the simplest method, the external traffic trenches, can be used to a certain extent. to ensure the safety of transportation of materials and personnel.

The advantage of this is that it can at least ensure that each section of the city wall has two infantry guns or rapid-fire artillery to attack the Japanese troops attacking from the front.

This tactical concept is actually not new. It is almost the same as the one used by the defenders in Sihang Warehouse. It is just that they use a strong shell to block first. If you want to attack, you have to find a way to peel off this shell first.

That is to say, the Japanese troops they have to face now are more numerous and have stronger firepower, but the strategic depth in Songjiang City is also greater. The mortars most commonly used by the Chinese army are hidden in well-built solid fortifications and can still target a range of 2,000 meters. Any Japanese troops within formed a strike.

It's just that drawing on paper is very simple, but actually doing it is not necessarily easy. It requires not only time and people, but also tools and materials.

At present, Songjiang already has about 2,000 people from the Songjiang Security Group, 600 people from the 43rd Army, 100 people from the Sixing Battalion, and almost 3,000 people from Qingzhuang, totaling less than 6,000 people.

It is already a dream to complete the various trenches that crisscross the city, 1.5 meters wide, 1.5 meters deep, and at least 20 kilometers long with this small manpower in just 24 hours, let alone Tang Dao. Various firepower points planned?

Even the scheming Lieutenant General Guo was looking at the planning drawings drawn by Tang Dao with frowning and somewhat helpless.
