Chapter 102

Yangshupu Naval Club, Central China Front Command.

Nagayong made a slide based on the situation chart of the Chinese and Japanese armies and the preview for the next two days, and invited senior generals such as Matsui Ishione, Iinuma Masato and Tsukada Oku to enjoy it.

The Japanese secret service agency had some tricks. They had at least eighty divisions of the National Army on the Songhu battlefield. Changyong's slides were also very exquisite, and his professionalism was no less than a miniature movie. Even the old Japanese devil, Matsui Ishigen, nodded repeatedly.

On the big screen is the topographic map of Songhu. Pudong, Nanshi, Huxi and Jiading, and Nanxiang are covered with dense blue dots. Each blue dot here represents a division of the National Army. Nearly a hundred blue dots intertwined each other, forming an irregular curve in western Shanghai.

The five red arrows representing the five Japanese field divisions were starting from Lion Forest and Wusong. Through Luodian, the big field extended little by little towards the west of Shanghai. The irregular curve composed of hundreds of blue dots retreated little by little towards the west of Shanghai under the squeeze of the five red arrows, retreating all the way west of Nanxiang and south of Wusong River.

When another huge red arrow marked with the word "10th Army" transformed from Jinshanwei and quickly climbed northward across Songjiang County, nearly a hundred blue dots near Pudong, Nanshi, Huxi, Jiading, and Nanxiang quickly gathered into more than a dozen tiny blue arrows, extending towards Taicang, Kunshan, and Qingpu.

At this time, a red arrow was divided from Songjiang County and extended northward, pointing directly to Qingpu, and another red arrow was divided from Liuhe Town, pointing southward to Taicang, and a dozen blue arrows extending westward from Pudong, Nanshi, Huxi and Jiading, Nanxiang contracted toward the middle under the squeeze of two red arrows, one southward and one northward, and finally gathered into two huge blue arrows, extending closely to the north and south of the Wusong River to Anting.

Two red arrows representing the Japanese army in the south and north continued to squeeze into the middle, and took the lead in completing the rendezvous at Anting. Then, two huge blue arrows extending from the Wusong River hit the two huge blue arrows. After a while, the red and blue arrows intersected, and an explosion flashed on the screen, and the blue arrows collapsed and the slideshow was finished.

"Yo Xi." After watching the slide, Matsui Ishione praised, "Nao Sang, your military chess deduction is very good. In the future, the military chess deduction will be done according to this plan."

However, before Matsui Ishigen finished speaking, a major staff officer hurried in to report: "Genius General, the agent lurking in Nanjing has just sent back the news to the Shanghai secret service agency that the 6th Division has changed its route of entry and She'anting has gone to Kunshan."

"Nani?" Matsui Ishione was stunned when he heard this. Nagayong, Iinuma Masato, Tsukada Oku, and other generals also looked at each other.

Matsui Ishione didn't believe it at first. The staff officers in the Japanese Army have always had the tradition of being inferior to others, but the division-level chief officers openly disobeying military orders never happened. However, for the sake of safety, the old Japanese still asked the Chief of Staff Iimuma to send a telegram to the commander of the 10th Legion, Heisuke Yanagawa.

Iimuma Mori went for a moment and soon returned to the combat command hall.

Seeing that Masato Iinuma's face turned pale, Matsui Ishinobu immediately cried out and asked, "What?"

Iimuma stood at attention with his legs and said, "Great General, the 6th Division only sent an infantry brigade to the north along the Songjia Highway, but the main force of the division was organized into the Sakai Detachment and headed straight to Kunshan along the Qingkun Highway."

"Bageyaru!" Matsui Ishien was so angry that she threw the teacup in her hand to the ground.

Because the Shanghai-sected condemnation army was not effective and performed poorly, Matsui Ishigen held back his strength and wanted to encircle the national army in western Shanghai. This is indeed true, but if he deliberately suppressed the 10th Army, he secretly left his first contribution to the Shanghai-sected condemnation army, which was wronged. Tani Shou-o, the old devil, underestimated Matsui Ishigen.

Tsukada Oku, the chief of staff of the Central China Front Army, had just arrived, but his eyes lit up and said, "General, although the 6th Division's move is suspected of not following military orders, if it can really seize Kunshan, it is very likely that more than 100,000 troops that have retreated to Anting will be surrounded again, which is a wonderful move?"

Matsui Ishione said: "Tsukada Sang, things are not that simple."

Iimuma Moriya said: "Jusa Tsukadada has just arrived in Shanghai and has not had much contact with the Chinese army. Don't underestimate the Chinese army because the 10th Army has made rapid progress since the landing of the Kinshanwei. The 6th Division has taken a bit big steps and is likely to be disconnected from the front and back, and it will not be able to echo the 11th Division that is heading south. I am afraid it will suffer a loss."

"Is that true?" Tsukada Otsuki said lightly, "It shouldn't be that right?"

Iimuma frowned and said nothing more. If he said a few more words, Tsukada Oshima thought he was too shameful to make contributions to the 10th Army and deliberately favored the condemnation army in Shanghai. However, he could not withdraw the 44th infantry registrar that was advancing towards Anting along the Songjia Highway and turned around to attack Kunshan because there was already anger.

#############

Baihegang, the 19th Brigade Brigade Headquarters.

Xu Shijiu has been staring at the map for a while. Although there are few signs about the Japanese army on the map, and even the national army is very few signs, Xu Shijiu can still rely on limited information to basically deduce the current situation of the Chinese and Japanese armies. The situation is already very obvious. The national army is facing an unprecedented crisis!

While the 6th Japanese Division headed north to Anting, as a support, the 11th Division in the north must have gone south. If these two divisions meet in Anting or Kunshan, then the national army of more than 80 divisions on the Songhu battlefield will be doomed, and at least most of the national army will have no way to escape.

Gao Shenxing also saw the seriousness of the problem and said in a low voice: "Captain, the main force of the Japanese 6th Division suddenly abandoned Anting and took Kunshan. The situation will only be worse than now. Anting still has 14th Division in there, and Baihegang also has our 19th Brigade, but there are probably only local security teams in Kunshan."

Xu Shijiu just nodded subconsciously without saying a word

Gu Wei didn't expect this level and said disapprovingly: "Do you care about your life or death in Kunshan? If the main force of the 6th Division goes to Kunshan, the pressure on us will be lighter. This is a good thing."

Gao Shenxing said: "But have you ever thought about it? If Kunshan is lost, our persistence in Baihegang will be meaningless. More than 500,000 people will be doomed!"

When Gu Wei turned his gaze to the map again, his face suddenly became extremely embarrassed.

After staring at the map for a long time, Xu Shijiu suddenly thought of a question and asked the one-eyed dragon: "Along, how many Japanese troops did you just say that you continued north along Songjia Highway?"

One-eyed dragon said: "It's almost an infantry brigade."

"One brigade, only one brigade?" Xu Shijiu murmured, falling into deep thought.

Gao Shenxing also said: "This is indeed a bit strange. As far as I know, a permanent division in Japan has more than 20,000 people. If it is calculated that the reserve infantry regiment was going to fight with the army, the strength of a division may even exceed 40,000. Even if the main force of the 6th Division has already rushed to Kunshan, we shouldn't just send an infantry brigade to the north?"

Deputy Captain Gu Wei said: "What's so strange about this? You're a little Japanese maniac."

Gao Shenxing shook his head and said, "No, no matter how arrogant the little Japanese is, he will never be arrogant enough to think that just one infantry brigade can capture Baihe Port and then Anting."

"Then there is only one possibility." Gu Wei said, "There is only such a small amount of mobile troops left in Japan."

Hearing Gu Wei's words, Xu Shijiu's heart suddenly moved, and he turned his head and asked the one-eyed dragon, "Along, how many main Japanese troops are going to Kunshan along the Qingkun Highway?"

"I can't say this..." One-eyed dragon scratched his head, but immediately continued, "There must be thousands of people, and there are many vehicles, and the convoy is more than ten miles long."

"Are you sure there are only a few thousand people, not tens of thousands?"

"There are definitely not tens of thousands of people, and only six or seven thousand people will die of death."

"The main force of the 6th Division is only six or seven thousand?" Xu Shijiu's vague thought was becoming clearer and clearer. He asked the one-eyed dragon again, "So, how many Japanese soldiers are left in Qingpu County?"

"There are no soldiers in Qingpu County." One-eyed dragon said without thinking, "The Japanese did not station in the county, but left a military station in Sheshan Town, with almost four or five hundred people left."

"It's true!" Xu Shijiu beat the climax hard and said in a deep voice, "Little Japan is so fucking crazy!"

The little Japanese was so crazy that he inadvertently revealed a flaw. If this flaw is used properly, the more than 80 divisions and more than 500,000 troops retreated from western Shanghai may still have a glimmer of hope!

Gu Wei, Gao Shenxing, One-eyed Long and other officers looked over, and Xu Shijiu pointed to the map and said, "As Gu Wei said, the reason why Japan only sent an infantry brigade to attack Baihe Port is not that they don't want to send more troops, but because their troops have been scattered, just like sprinkling pepper, I'm afraid it's scattered everywhere."

"No?" Gao Shenxing frowned, "It is said that the Japanese army landed from Jinshanwei has three divisions!"

"Little Japan is so heart-wrenching." Xu Shijiu took a picture of the map and said in a deep voice, "Before the Battle of Songhu are over, they have already set foot on Nanjing. The main force of the Japanese army landed from Jinshanwei is probably already running to Jiaxing. Pingwang, why did the little Japan only send the 6th Division to attack Songjiang and Qingpu?"

"Nanjing?!" Gao Shenxing, Gu Wei, One-eyed Long and others all changed their expressions.

Gao Shenxing said: "Captain, even though the 6th Division has used up its strength, there are only one infantry brigade sent to attack Kunshan and six or seven thousand people. It is still an irresistible force for our army. The security team in Kunshan City and the few remaining troops retreated from west Shanghai can't resist it at all."

"Shenxing, you are right. Just by the security team in Kunshan City and the remnants of the Shanghai-Western divisions cannot stop the main force of the Japanese 6th Division, but..." Xu Shijiu paused for a moment, glanced over everyone's faces with a bright look, and said, "But don't forget that there is also our 19th Brigade."
