Chapter 94: The Crisis of the 111th Division of the National Army
In Jiangyin City, the battle on the defensive front of the National Army's 111th Division became more and more intense. What they faced was the attack of the Japanese Thirteenth Division and the 58th Infantry Regiment. As for the remaining three Japanese Regiment, the 65th,
The 104th and 116th Regiments were attacking the defensive front of the 103rd National Army Division.
"The attacks of the Japanese devils are becoming more and more fierce, and our ammunition consumption is also becoming more and more huge. When will our logistics supplies be replenished?"
"It's best to carry out supplies before the enemy's air raids and bombing attacks. Otherwise, our follow-up operations this time will probably become more and more difficult!"
"I won't be able to hold on at any time!"
"Especially when the enemy forces another regiment to come over to fight on our side, we will be in trouble!"
"And when will our reinforcements arrive here to support our operations?"
"We've been asking for support for a week, but we haven't seen any reinforcements yet?"
"What exactly is going on?"
Chen Jialin, the deputy commander of the 111th National Army Division, looked disgraced and anxious as he asked Commander Gao.
"Commander Liu Xing said that he is already on his way here!"
"Whether it is reinforcements or logistical supplies of weapons, equipment, and ammunition, they are all on their way!"
"Let the brothers support me no matter what. We must not lose before reinforcements and logistical supplies arrive!"
Teacher Gao was equally disgraced and continued to respond.
At this moment, he has also been on the front line in person, conducting command operations.
He even fired the gun himself and came to fight.
"Is what Commander Liu Xing said this time true? Or is it false?"
"He has been saying that reinforcements are on the way for a week, but in the end he has seen nothing!"
"Now the battle situation on our side of the front is getting more and more critical. We might not even be able to hold on to the guard operation tonight!"
But Chen Jialin, the deputy division commander, was still very anxious and asked.
"If you want to know, then ask Commander Liu Xing yourself!"
"Now I know nothing except fighting to the death!"
"Where is the telephone and the signal soldier? Go and ask him yourself!"
"I will continue to command operations. Now the Japanese's 58th Regiment has launched a general offensive!"
"I have no way to distract myself from continuing these communications with you!"
.......
However, Division Commander Gao directly asked Deputy Division Commander Chen Jialin to question Commander Liu Xing himself, because he could no longer urge reinforcements and logistics supplies to arrive faster.
The reason is that he has been pressing questions for a week, and the replies he got are just like what deputy division commander Chen Jialin said, they are all false.
So he was in no mood and continued to question Commander Liu Xing.
Especially now, the Japanese 58th Regiment is also carrying out artillery bombing and launching a general attack.
Therefore, the defensive line of the 111th Division under his command was also in a very critical situation.
"..."
Deputy division commander Chen Jialin.
After seeing that his teacher ignored him,
He was also hesitant for a moment whether he should question Commander Liu Xing himself.
.......
at the same time,
Japanese 58th Regiment,
The commander of the regiment, Utada, was full of confidence. He held up military binoculars and looked at the trenches where his artillery troops were desperately bombarding the 111th Division of the National Army on the opposite line of defense, and the tragic battle situation with many casualties.
He showed a smile as bright as a chrysanthemum,
The more you smile, the more confident and joyful you will be.
Since the landing operations, they have been sweeping through the national troops they encountered with the least casualties.
Even the national army that stubbornly resisted the attack of their 13th Division some time ago suffered many casualties.
So now he doesn't take the 111th Division of the National Army in front of him, which is not an elite ace unit, at all.
Even though the national army standing in front of them was the most elite German armorer unit, he didn't feel much panic.
So at this moment, the captain of the team, Utada, is really arrogant and feels that he is invincible.
"Sou Ga! Give me the order. After the artillery force's artillery fire coverage and bombardment are completed, the Chinese army on the opposite side must be completely defeated within an hour and their defensive positions must be completely occupied!"
"Be prepared for our follow-up reinforcements to seize the entire Jiangyin City!"
"The final victory must belong to our 58th Regiment!"
"We will be the first imperial army to enter Jiangyin City!"
"Glory will belong to us all!"
"So now you are all ready to kill me!"
"I will kill the Chinese army on the opposite side until rivers of blood flow and corpses litter the fields!"
........
Then, Captain Utada issued a time-limited combat order.
"Hai!"
"Hai!"
"Hai!"
.........
All the Japanese officers around him quickly agreed loudly.
Immediately, the entire Japanese 58th Regiment, as if going crazy, launched a general attack.
As for the Japanese artillery troops, they were also shelling and bombing wildly. They wanted to pour all the artillery shells on the position of the 111th Division of the National Army at once, killing and injuring all the National Army officers and soldiers.
