Rise From Eight Hundred

Except for the remains of the seventeen soldiers who were found in the truck, the remaining 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 a monument can be erected to commemorate it and be renovated in the future.

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

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 will have to 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, so he 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 luggage, 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 disassembled 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 behind 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 the air force lieutenant named Dong Mingde was not an 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 people are 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 Sixing Battalion, as the vanguard, had already arrived at the Baihegang Bridge where troops were still stationed. 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 regiment passed through the bridge and entered the north of the bridge.

The landscape 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 advance team, there are more than 20,000 Songjiang defenders. Unless the Japanese reconnaissance plane lowers the altitude below 500 meters, there is no way to find their whereabouts.

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

They are aware enough about death, but after all, living is the best thing, right?

How warm is the autumn sun in Jiangnan?

But that’s not what the Japanese think.

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

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

Based on his understanding of the Navy's urine properties, the results of the battle were unknown. Maybe the Malu gang in the Navy suffered a big loss and were just too embarrassed to talk about it.

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

Because that meant that his dream of dragging the Chinese for a period of time came to nothing. He had to speed up the entire army to catch up with them before sunset, not to mention that he also had to face a trapped beast of 20,000 to 30,000 Chinese.

Thinking of being beaten all over the head by these Chinese people at the foot of Matsue Castle, how could it be possible if His Excellency Yanagawa Heisuke didn't feel melancholy in his crotch?

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 only 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 Expedition 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

Damn it, why don’t my Lu Airlines still be 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's something to talk about later. 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 had scruples, it wouldn'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 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, was the boss, he still had to be more cautious since his younger brother was dead. It was estimated that he would not be able to stay in the boss position for long.

There is a precedent among the Japanese Army for believing that the boss does not strive for excellence and can defeat his superiors.

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 'down to conquer up' 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 horrific corruption and turned out to be useless. They completed their seemingly impossible tactical ideas.

However, they misjudged the Chinese people’s resistance.

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

‘Fight after battle, defeat after defeat, defeat after defeat! ’ 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 can't.

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 in a chain.

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 service 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 so easily.

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

The eggs were broken all over the floor.
