Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 569 Defending Nanjing ([-])

The time has come to July [-]th. In that time and space, it was on this day that the "Marco Polo Bridge Incident" that affected the progress of modern Chinese history took place.It was also on this day that the full-scale war of resistance broke out.

And on this day in this time and space, the War of Resistance has already taken place for several days.Ouyang Yun, who was lucky enough to cross over, was sitting on an off-road vehicle, driving on the way to Wuxi.

Regarding the combat mission arrangement of the Xuebing Army, because they were not included in the combat plan at the beginning, Lao Jiang used them as a reserve team and let the Xuebing Army renovate in Hangzhou for a full five days.And just when the officers and soldiers of the cadet army began to be bored and full of complaints, the combat order issued in the name of the Supreme Military Council finally arrived.

With more than [-] troops, the Central China Front of the Japanese Army marched on both sea and land routes. Among them, because China's navy is weak, there are no large warships that can rival the Japanese army at all, and it relies entirely on forts on the shore for defense. It has completely become the world of the Japanese navy. At present, the Japanese army has begun to attack the Jiangyin fortress.And once the Jiangyin Fortress, the most balanced fortress in the lower reaches, is captured, the Japanese army is likely to go ashore from then on, thus forming a siege of Nanjing. Lao Jiang's order to the Xuebing Army is to ask them to help defend the Jiangyin Fortress.

When Ouyang Yun held a routine marching meeting that night, he informed the four division commanders, political directors, and several senior staff officers of the mission, which immediately aroused strong reactions from everyone.Among them, He Zhengsheng, the teacher of the third division, put it bluntly: Is the committee's order correct?We are infantry, let us help defend Jiangyin Fortress?But I heard that the current Jiangyin Fortress faces more than a dozen batches of bombing by the Japanese naval aviation every day.This is for us to be cannon fodder!

The commander of the Fifth Xue Division was Ye Zhao. He shook his head and continued: This order is really questionable. Are they afraid that we will steal the limelight from other troops when we go to the front line?After all, we are not the Central Army.

Everyone was discussing in a hurry, and gradually deviated from the direction, and began to concentrate their firepower on the chairman.

Regarding this order, Ouyang Yun has a different idea from others. In other words, given his deep understanding of the role of the navy, he has thought about how to fight against the Japanese fleet without a strong navy a long time ago. .He waved his hand to stop everyone, and said: "It's just an order, so there are so many ways. Let me tell you, the committee's order is still very targeted. As we all know, our cadet army is the most important among all the teams in the country." It is used for air defense operations, and there are enough heavy artillery, which can be used to deal with Japanese warships. Let's discuss the next stage of operations!"

During World War II, even though Japan was only one-fortieth of China, with a population of only 7000 million, it developed a sufficiently powerful navy.On the other hand, China, although its population and land area far exceeds that of its counterpart, its navy is so pitifully small that it cannot even fight a serious naval duel.

The navy is also a weakness of the cadet army.Although the Xuebing Army's current navy also has a fleet headquarters, it only has a wretched 26 warships, of which there are only four warships with thousands of tons.With such a fleet size, if you want to confront the Japanese navy with an aircraft carrier, it is almost the same as dying.Of course, Ouyang Yun would not be so stupid as to confront the opponent head-on.How to use the warships in his hands with maximum energy efficiency and create troubles for the Japanese navy was something he struggled with for a time.In summary, he finally felt that it would be a good choice to vigorously develop high-speed torpedo boats and advanced torpedoes, and then to cast coastal guns with large enough diameters and diameters.

Today, the development of torpedoes has been officially put on the research and development agenda of Xuebing R&D Institute. At the same time, the heart of high-speed torpedo boats: the engine is also under development.Ouyang Yun believes that as long as these two treasures can be developed, although they cannot defeat the Japanese navy, they can still be used for defense or surprise attacks.

Of course, at the current stage, all of these are flowers in the water and the moon in the mirror. What he can do now is how to use the resources in his hands as much as possible to block the Japanese navy's combat operations.

All the people present here are "native-born" soldiers and know nothing about naval warfare. When Ouyang Yun asked them to come up with an idea, everyone stared blankly and fell silent.

After waiting for a while, before anyone could speak, Ouyang Yun could only shake his head helplessly and said: "I think so. This time, our troops can play a role in helping to defend the Jiangyin Fortress. In fact, only a part of the troops— — Artillery and air defense. We have two heavy artillery brigades and five air defense regiments accompanying us this time. One regiment is responsible for the air defense operations of a heavy artillery brigade... The others are not idle, their task will be to build false positions..."

The so-called false positions are actually false targets. The purpose of doing this is naturally to protect the real artillery and air defense units.

Finally, he asked everyone: "Do you have anything to add?"

Everyone looked at me, I looked at you, and finally a director of the political department named Bi Chengmin stood up and said, "Commander, I have an idea—our snipers can actually play a good role in the offensive and defensive battle of Jiangyin Fortress this time." Function. Isn’t the Huashan Mountain near Jiangyin good for concealment, we can let snipers use anti-tank guns to snipe the devils on the Japanese ship.”

"That's a good idea! But it's also very dangerous, because once the Japanese ship notices it, the snipers must be waiting for overwhelming artillery fire."

"I think this is also a good thing. In this way, the attention of the Japanese ship will be distracted."

Everyone excitedly discussed, and then He Zhengsheng proposed another bold idea.His inspiration came from the giant fireworks used in Renqiu's air defense. He thought that if the range of the fireworks could be adjusted a little longer, would it be able to hit the sky above the enemy ship? The personnel caused huge damage.

Hearing this idea, Ouyang Yun was overjoyed, and blurted out: "What kind of fireworks are these, they are clearly missiles." As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he was inspired, jumped up and said: "Great, why didn't I think of it before? Shichang, hurry up and send a telegram to Li Tieshu, asking him to send a batch of 'Wanfu Type I' rockets as quickly as possible! Haha, this time, I will let the little devil taste the taste of roast suckling pig."
