In the general headquarters of the 19th Route Army, the sound of electricity was lingering, and everyone's footsteps were in a hurry.

The Japanese launched a division attack from the front, and under the cover of carrier-based aircraft and artillery, they constantly attacked the defense line of the 19th Route Army and the Fifth Army, and the front battlefield was fierce.

At the same time, the Fifth Regiment of the 120th Brigade stationed in Liuhe Town in the rear sent an urgent telegram that the Japanese army had landed in Liuhe under the cover of warships, and tens of thousands of Japanese troops were attacking the Liuhe position, and the Taicang defense line was in danger!

At present, the main forces of the 19th Route Army and the Fifth Army are deployed in the area of Naobei-Miaohang to resist the attack of the 9th and 14th Divisions of the Japanese Army.

On the frontal battlefield, the Japanese army mobilized a tank brigade of more than 50 armored vehicles, as well as nearly 200 field guns and heavy artillery, and Zhang Zhizhong's Fifth Army had to be sent to the front.

However, at this time, news of the crisis in the Liuhe River in the rear suddenly came, and anyone with a little military literacy knew that if the Liuhe River was lost, Taicang would be lost! Once Taicang was lost, the back and flanks of the Huaxia army would be exposed to the guns of the Japanese army, and there would be no way to retreat! They could only retreat to the line of Jiading and Huangdu! Give up Shanghai!

After Zhang Zhizhong, the commander of the Fifth Army, who had come from the reinforcements, came to the headquarters and eagerly asked Jiang Guang, the commander-in-chief of the 19th Route Army, "Commander-in-chief, how is the battle in Liuhe?"

Jiang Guang was talking to an officer with a strange uniform, his face was a little unpleasant, and Zhang Zhizhong did not pay attention to the officer.

Jiang Guang's face was not good because he received the mysterious funding of 'overseas Chinese surnamed Lin', and obtained more than 20,000 rifles, more than 100 mortars and more than 30 field guns, but at the same time, it also made Chairman Jiang of Jinling have a lot of doubts about the 19th Route Army.

But at the beginning, the Japanese army had begun to reinforce, and the 19th Route Army was fighting alone, and in the face of such a large support, Jiang Guang and the 19th Route Army could not give up!

He glanced at Zhang Zhizhong and said, "I have already ordered the 120th Brigade to support." "

"How can a brigade be enough?" Zhang Zhizhong took a breath of cold air, his brows condensed into a black line.

You must know that the entire 19th Route Army has only more than 30,000 men, three divisions and six brigades, each brigade has no more than 5,000 people, and the Japanese troops landing on the opposite side have a full division of infantry, more than 16,000 people!

"How is the situation at Hongqiao Airport?" Jiang Guang turned to the other staff officer.

"The bombed rubble is being cleared and is expected to be completed in half an hour. The staff officer reported.

Yesterday, the Jinling government sent 25 fighter planes into Songhu to participate in the war, and when in Kunshan, they encountered the Japanese naval aviation, fought a battle, and then landed at the Hongqiao airport to replenish fuel and ammunition when they were bombed by the Japanese army, and the deputy captain Huang Yuquan, who had just finished his marriage, was anxious to take to the air to fight, but the plane's engine failed, and he died in a crash in the air battle, and the Hongqiao airport was also bombed by the Japanese army, and the air force lost seven planes.

Zhang Zhizhong was a little angry by Jiang Guang, but remembered that Chairman Jiang had repeatedly ordered them to obey the command of the 19th Route Army, so he could only endure his arrogance.

Just as he wanted to ask why he didn't send more than two brigades to support Liuhe, the officer in a strange military uniform on the side said to him with a smile: "Commander Zhang's heart, our army's fighter unit will immediately rush to Liuhe for air support." "

"Are you?" Zhang Zhizhong realized that this 'wrong style of painting' was a person, his black and green camouflage uniform was completely different from the others in the headquarters, and he felt out of place, as if he was a soldier from another country.

But looking at his East Asian face, he doesn't look like a Japanese dwarf?

The man saluted Zhang Zhizhong and said, "Director of the Shanghai Office of the Zhenbei Army, Jiang Ning." "

Zhenbei Army!

Zhang Zhizhong's eyes suddenly opened, and he turned his head to look at Jiang Guang.

I secretly thought to myself, 'When did this 19th Route Army hook up with the Zhenbei Army?' Could it be that that batch of mysterious munitions is the same as the Zhenbei Army?'

"By the way, the fighter unit you are talking about?" Zhang Zhizhong looked back at Jiang Ning: "You flew from the Northeast?

The northeast side is eight or nine hundred kilometers away from Shanghai, so they are coming to support from such a long distance? And have they already finished fighting the war in the northeast?

Although the Zhenbei Army has recently defeated five divisions of the Japanese army, driven the Japanese army to the Liaodong Peninsula, and recovered Dandong, which has made the people of the whole country excited, but now they can still mobilize the air force to support, is it possible that the Kwantung Prefecture has been defeated?

"Hehe, this Commander Zhang will know soon, for now, let's think about how to fight the Japanese army first!" Jiang Ning smiled, and then saluted Jiang Guang and a group of senior officers of the 19th Route Army next to the map: "Generals, the things have been delivered, so I will leave first!"

Many senior officers in the command headquarters got up and saw Jiang Ning away with laughter.

After Jiang Ning left, Zhang Zhizhong looked suspiciously at Jiang Guang and the generals of the 19th Route Army who were smiling as if they had eaten candy, and secretly said that the matter of the 19th Route Army and the Zhenbei Army was probably not so simple.

But in the end, he just let out a long sigh and said in a sincere tone: "Commander-in-Chief Jiang, on the Songhu battlefield, I and the Fifth Army are your subordinate troops, obey your dispatch, and other things, let's talk about it after fighting the little devils." "

"Okay!" Jiang Guang nodded: In that case, I, Jiang someone, will say it clearly. "

After a short time with Zhang Zhizhong, Jiang Guang also knew that this person was a very patriotic general, and after the Shanghai Incident, he was the first to apply to Chairman Jiang for transfer to the Songhu defense line to fight devils, and he also resolutely obeyed his own command and restrained his subordinates from obeying the command.

He looked at Zhang Zhizhong and said: "The Zhenbei Army purchased several batches of arms and equipment in Shanghai before, because the war in the Northeast was about to be pacified, and the war in Shanghai became more and more unsmooth, so it was transferred to our 19th Route Army and the Fifth Army, this batch is mainly heavy weapons, 120 light and heavy machine guns, 100 40 mm and 60 mm mortars, 48 37 mm anti-aircraft guns, 48 75 mountain guns and 24 105 field guns, as well as supporting 10 base shells and bullets, all of which are American and Soviet equipment.

"

Hiss –

The two divisions of Zhang Zhizhong's Fifth Army were both elite units adapted from the Central Guard Division of the Nationalist Government, but when he heard this list of arms, he couldn't help but gasp.

This list alone is enough to arm the elite of two divisions!

Is this Zhenbei Army's handiwork so big? Give it away directly?

"Commander Zhang, you also have your share in this support, now the main thing is that the devil's armored vehicles are difficult to fight, and every time the soldiers have to tie up explosives and fight with their lives!

You bring a few more battle defense guns, you also bring 40 machine guns and mortars, you also bring 24 75 mountain guns, and 105 field guns will be placed in the rear for unified use, what do you think?" Jiang Guang simply divided the equipment, and asked Zhang Zhizhong first.

Almost half of the ammunition was divided at once, and it was all urgently needed equipment, such as the 37mm anti-aircraft gun for fighting devil armored vehicles!

Zhang Zhizhong nodded a little embarrassedly, and didn't ask anything else, just thinking about what would happen after the devil was over.
