Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 399

Chapter 399 So melancholy!

Except for the remains of the seventeen soldiers who were found in the truck, the rest of the soldiers who died in this battle, including the remains of the pilots found in the wreckage of the plane, were all buried together in a dense forest under Tang Dao's order.

And mark it on the map so that it can be commemorated and renovated in the future.

The only one who couldn't find it was a cavalryman who found an almost unrecognizable blood-stained goggle in the field. Tang Dao ordered him to collect this together with a fragment belonging to a Hawker III fighter plane, and count it as his relic. Return it to his family if given the chance.

All the war dead have been properly arranged, but the damaged plane that made the emergency landing cannot be taken away no matter what.

“If you take away the fighter plane, you must leave behind 2,000 kilograms of baggage or ten wounded people!” Tang Dao faced the pilot who came to him in person to request that the fighter plane be taken away. Tang Dao could only throw out a multiple-choice question and let him choose.

Not to mention the wounded, no one would abandon them.

The 2,000 kilograms of baggage may be ammunition or food. Whether it is the former or the latter, it is extremely valuable and valuable to the advance regiment that is currently being used as bait to attract tens of thousands of Japanese troops pursuing the Tenth Army. .

But the only fighter plane that can no longer take off, even if its value is a hundred times the 2,000 kilograms of baggage, is just a pile of scrap metal here.

The pilot was speechless. In the end, he could only watch with tears in his eyes as Tang Dao's soldiers dismantled the 12.7mm heavy machine gun that was still usable on the plane, poured oil on it, and set fire to the aircraft worth hundreds of thousands of silver dollars. My beloved fighter jet was completely burned.

The lieutenant pilot made a request to Tang Dao, hoping that Tang Dao would send him to Kunshan so that he could return to Jinling with the retreating army. His comrades were still waiting for him to return to the team, and the Chinese Air Force would continue to fight.

But Tang Dao could only refuse again based on the current battle situation.

Since the Japanese army can infiltrate beyond Songjiang, there is no guarantee that they will not send a small-scale special agent team to infiltrate farther away.

It is extremely dangerous to break away from the main force and march in the wilderness with less than an infantry company.

If you want to send it, you have to wait until the battle situation is basically clear.

However, although Tang Dao could not agree to his request, the courtesy was sufficient. The guard squad of the guard camp was given a death order. As long as one person is alive, the air force lieutenant must be alive.

Because, only Tang Dao knew that this air force lieutenant named Dong Mingde was no ordinary person. Although he was not as dazzling as the "Steel Helmet of Jiangnan Earth", he would be able to accompany Le in the Jinling air battle in the next 20 days. The only comrade who shed his blood in the blue sky, he also carved his name under the sky of history.

Such a person is more precious than gold.

The air force lieutenant could only temporarily rest his thoughts on returning to Jinling and march with the command of the commander who was much younger than him but was already an army lieutenant colonel.

By the time the baggage battalion and the cavalry had cleared all the battlefields, it was already two hours later.

The Sixth Battalion as the vanguard has already arrived at the Baihegang Bridge where the garrison still remains. Lei Xiong sent a telegram: Everything has been arranged according to Tang Dao's order, and the entire army can pass through the Baihegang Bridge.

Tang Dao and others set off, while the various units of the advance group passed through the bridge and entered the north of the bridge.

The landform of Qiaobei, which belongs to the Kunshan area, is slightly different from that of Qiaonan. The terrain is not as flat and wide as Qiaonan, with continuous small hills and denser woods.

Entering here, not to mention the 3,000-person advance team, there are more than 20,000 Songjiang defenders. Unless the Japanese reconnaissance plane lowers the altitude to less than 500 meters, there is no way to find their whereabouts.

It can be said that the battalion and company commanders of the advance regiment who passed the bridge felt a little relieved at that moment.

They are sufficiently aware of death, but after all, living is the best thing, right?

How warm is the autumn sun in Jiangnan?

But the Japanese don't think so.

Why is the autumn wind in Jiangnan, China so cold?

“The Imperial Navy bomber group was intercepted by the Chinese Air Force, and the outcome of the battle is unknown!” His Excellency Lieutenant General Yanagawa Heisuke, who received the telegram from the Navy half an hour ago, had a much colder face than the relatively warm autumn wind.

Based on his understanding of the navy's urine, the results of the battle there are unknown. Maybe the navy's gang of millipedes suffered a big loss, but they were just too embarrassed to talk about it.

He doesn't care how much damage the navy and land forces suffered, but it bothers him that it didn't cause large-scale damage to the Chinese.

Because that means that his dream of dragging the Chinese for a period of time has come to nothing. He has to speed up the entire army to catch up with them before sunset, not to mention facing a trapped beast of 20,000 to 30,000 Chinese.

Thinking of under Songjiang City, it was a full bag that was beaten by this group of Chinese people. How can Liu Chuanping help your crotch not give birth to a melancholy? Yanagawa Heisuke knew his own navy well. An hour ago, he saw only two or three big cats and kittens staggering back out of the eighteen fighter formations that once took off from the aircraft carrier. One of them was too badly damaged. I almost didn't fall into the sea, I almost didn't get sent away at that time.

It took half an hour for him to regain his composure. While scolding the Army bumpkins for digging a hole for him, he carefully sent a message to the Songhu Expeditionary Army Headquarters, "The results of the battle are unknown!" ' No matter what, the face of the Imperial Navy cannot be lost, even if the face is swollen and looks ugly.

However, this time China's land and air force resolutely fought back, but the arrogant Japanese navy learned to behave. When it received a request from the army for air support, it either asked them to use their own army aviation, or A small formation was dispatched symbolically to deal with it.

It is true that His Excellency Kiyoshi Hasegawa does not have many planes in his hands.

Japanese Army

Hmm, why don't I have my Army Air Force stationed in Wanwan? You idiot, if you don't want to cooperate, you have to wait for me to occupy a few airports first, okay?

But no matter how scolded the Army, Kiyoshi Hasegawa, who was beaten and vomited blood, remained the same and was determined not to send a large fleet of aircraft to be beaten again.

Of course, that is a later story. For Yanagawa Heisuke, whose heart is being trampled by ten thousand "grass mud horses" at the moment, the navy can't count on it, so he can only rely on his Tenth Army to fight hard.

Even if he has scruples, it won't work.

'The Strongest Division on the Surface', but even the division commander was killed. The two brigade commanders who wanted to be in the position screamed and tried their best to express themselves. Under the banner of revenge for the division commander, they took the 3rd brigade commander who had already suffered heavy losses. More than 20,000 people from the Sixth Division rushed to the front.

Although he, the lieutenant general commander of the Tenth Army, is the boss, he still has to be more cautious since his younger brothers are dead. It is estimated that he will not stay in the boss position for a long time.

The Japanese Army believes that the boss does not strive for excellence and has a precedent of subordinates overcoming superiors, which is not uncommon in the Japanese Army.

Including himself, didn't he also think that the old men in the base camp who had decided to temporarily suspend their troops as soon as they captured Songhu lacked enough enterprising spirit?

On the transport ship coming to the southeast, they had already negotiated with Hisao Tani, Sadao Ushijima and Shigeharu Suematsu. They would not act according to the tactical plan given to them by the headquarters staff headquarters. Once the Chinese army was defeated from the flank, their Tenth Army would move along the capital. The Shanghai Line marched towards Jinling, China, and captured its capital, completely defeating the Chinese people's will to resist.

In fact, Yanagawa Heisuke did not know at this time that the strategic plan of "lower to defeat upper" initiated by him, Hisao Tani and other mass murderers in the past time and space had actually succeeded.

The several lines of defense that China spent a lot of effort to build in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces were hollowed out by terrible corruption and their resistance was reduced to nothing. They completed their seemingly impossible tactical ideas.

It's just that they misjudged the Chinese people's resistance.

Even though they were retreating steadily, they even lost their capital and suffered a brutal massacre.

But the massacre did not make people despair. It only made the Chinese people know that surrendering and living are like pigs and dogs.

　　'Fighting and losing, fighting and defeating! ' became the most powerful resistance of the Chinese people in that time and space.

The Chinese can afford to lose!

Just like the college entrance examination that most Chinese people will take in the future, you can fail countless exams before the college entrance examination and encounter pressure from family and friends, but as long as you persist enough and never give up on yourself, winning once will be enough. .

But the Japanese cannot.

The war with China consumes huge manpower and material resources. Ordinary people in the country can't wait to sell their belts to support it. It is also the honor and confidence accumulated through countless victories. As long as there is a big defeat, the combat effectiveness of the army will be reduced to Political and people's livelihood, if all kinds of negative consequences that are usually invisible are suppressed, they will collapse like dominoes.

At that time, China and Japan were like rivals in a boxing ring. Although a fighter was beaten wobbly and was about to be knocked out, he still had a chance as long as he could still fight and was not defeated. Throw a fatal punch.

In fact, these truths are not only understood by those mature and prudent Japanese veterans. Young soldiers like Yanagawa Heisuke who are eager to establish meritorious deeds are not fools, but they are more willing to fight and bet that the giant China will be defeated first. Their heavy blows knocked them down and gave themselves an extremely bright future.

But obviously, they lost the bet.

The Chinese people who are awakening will not fall down so easily.

Just like this group of Chinese who were being chased by tens of thousands of Japanese troops, they once again asked Yanagawa Heisuke.

The eggs were broken all over the ground.
