At four o'clock in the afternoon on July 28, with the sound of whistles, more than 20 Japanese warships sailed upstream from east to west and anchored in the Yangtze River outside Yong'an Embankment.
This fleet is the 11th Squadron belonging to the Japanese Third Fleet. The commander is Rear Admiral Kondo Eijiro. The fleet has a total of 9 gunboats and 8 auxiliary ships.
The Japanese army obviously knew that there were troops stationed here, so they violently bombarded the independent regiment's position shortly after they parked.
Fortunately, Li Guoyao had anticipated that the Japanese army might do this, so he evacuated the main force from the beach positions on the shore early. Therefore, although the Japanese army's shelling was fierce this time, it did not achieve any results.
However, after the shelling, the Japanese troops began to land on the beach.
Although it is the navy that is attacking this time, it is not without the army. The 11th Marine Corps includes the "Canglong" dispatch team, the 4th Wugang Special Marine Corps, and the 5th Wugang Special Marine Corps. There are more than a thousand troops.
At around five o'clock in the afternoon, under the command of the landing commander Captain Okamoto Weihei, more than 300 Japanese Marines, under the cover of naval guns, drove more than 20 assault boats and swarmed towards the Yong'an defensive position on the front line.
However, what the Japanese army did not expect was that there was no one on the garrison position on the shore. The imaginary landing operation did not start at all. The so-called garrison position only had a blue sky and white sun flag, and not even a fly in sight.
Soon, all members of the Japanese Marine Corps successfully landed on the beach and established a firm foothold on the south bank of the Yangtze River.
However, just as they were preparing to advance southward, less than a kilometer away from the river bank, they heard bursts of dull shelling in the distance, and then saw shells falling from the sky all over the sky, falling towards the marching Japanese Marines. The team blasted this group of Japanese soldiers until they were howling like ghosts.
Although Li Guoyao did not set up a blocking position on the shore because he was worried about the powerful firepower of the Japanese soldiers' warships, it did not mean that he was willing to see these Japanese soldiers go south easily.
In Li Guoyao's view, the so-called Marine Corps of the little devils only has more than a thousand people, and they cannot be allowed to scamper in front of the 61st Army no matter what.
The shells falling from the sky immediately stunned the little Japanese. The Japanese commander Miura Kenzo, Lieutenant Colonel Miura Kenzo, reported the situation to Major General Kondo Eijiro behind him while organizing his troops to counterattack.
Then the two sides started a fierce battle on the front line of Guanhu Village, Yong'an Town. The battle was very fierce!
The battle lasted from around 5pm to around 10pm. Due to the stubborn resistance of the defenders, although the Japanese army successively invested more than 1,500 people on the front line of Guanhu Village, they were never able to break through the defenders' positions, and instead suffered losses. One-third of the soldiers.
In desperation, Kondo Eijiro had no choice but to order the Marines to build positions on the river bank, continue to control the tidal flats, and wait until dawn tomorrow to continue the attack.
However, for Li Guoyao, the battle during the day was just an appetizer, and the real battle began at night.
Yong'an Town. The Bai family's old house.
This was originally the ancestral home of the most famous Bai family in Yong'an town. As the war started, Mr. Bai took the whole family and fled directly to the rear, leaving the Bai family's huge property to a few people. The servants took care of it, and after Li Guoyao's troops arrived here, they mobilized this place to become the temporary headquarters of the 61st Army.
The main hall of the Bai family is now the combat headquarters of the 61st Army!
There is a terrain sand table in the middle of the room. This was built by Li Guoyao himself. All the terrain and landforms within a fifty-kilometer radius of Yong'an Town are marked clearly. Even a small branch road is clearly marked.
At this time, there were several people standing next to the terrain sand table. The leader was Lieutenant General Li Guoyao of the 61st Army, followed by the special operations captain Zhang Shaolin, deputy captain Zhou Cheng and chief of staff Xu Ziyu.
In addition, there is not even a combat staff officer in such a large headquarters!
After Zhang Shaolin and others arrived, Li Guoyao asked in a deep voice: "Do you know why I called you here?"
"Military seat, there must be a mission, please give the order, our special team is ready at any time!" Zhang Shaolin said loudly.
Li Guoyao nodded and said: "This mission is no small matter. You may become the protagonist who shocks the world, or you may be wiped out!"
Zhou Cheng immediately said: "Commander, it is our honor to join the special force. The sword pointed by the command can only move forward and not retreat. Please give us the order!"
"Military seat, give the order!" Xu Ziyu also said loudly.
Li Guoyao nodded and said: "The frontline??You should also know the situation. According to the Japanese telegrams we intercepted, the Botian detachment was stubbornly blocked by Wang Lingji's 31st Group Army at Lion Rock on the Ruichang front. Landed and penetrated into Ruichang County, attempting to encircle and annihilate tens of thousands of national troops on the front line near Lion Rock. "
"The little devils are not big, but they have a big appetite. There are only a few of them, less than a few thousand in total. If they want to devour 30,000 people in one go, it is really unreasonable!" Zhou Cheng shouted loudly said.
Li Guoyao said: "Although the little devils have a big appetite, if they can successfully land in our defense zone, then this plan is not without possibility of success!"
"Military seat, with our 61st Army guarding here, the little devil wants to sneak attack on Ruichang City with this small force. It is really wishful thinking." Zhang Shaolin said lightly.
"Haha, if our troops are determined not to let them pass, the Japs really have no chance of seizing Ruichang. After all, their warships can't sail ashore, and the Marine Corps only has a thousand people. Even if they fight against each other, they can't. It can consume the little devil to death!"
However, Li Guoyao changed his voice and continued: "But don't forget that the Japanese navy fleet can transport reinforcements from the rear to the front without restriction. Once the Japanese army is determined to capture the Yong'an front line, the pressure on our army will be Not small!¡±
"If that's the case, then destroy its ability to transport reinforcements!" Zhou Cheng said in a deep voice.
Xu Ziyu said: "This afternoon I personally went to the river bank to see the little Japanese warship parked in the middle of the river. We can definitely find a batch of mines to blow it up. If we don't need to sink it, we just need to Just injure it!"
"Yes, warships are expensive and troublesome to repair. As long as they are damaged, they can temporarily lose their combat effectiveness!" Zhou Chengdao.
"But blowing up warships is not like blowing up bunkers. Any shells and explosives can be used. In addition to large-caliber artillery, the only weapons used to blow up warships are special mines. But we are not the navy. How can we go there to fix those things?" Zhang Shaolin said. .
However, Li Guoyao directly interrupted Zhang Shaolin and others and said: "I didn't ask you to blow up warships this time. That would be too unchallenging. I want you to seize the ship!"
"Seize the ship? Does the commander want us to seize the Japanese warship?" Zhou Cheng asked.
"Yes, the Japs' warships are in the center of the Yangtze River, and since the Chinese navy was basically disabled by them, the Japs' defense is very lax. We can completely solve these arrogant Japanese warships in the simplest way!" Li Guoyao road.
Hearing Li Guoyao¡¯s words, Zhang Shaolin and others¡¯ eyes lit up!
"Military seat, this is a good idea. Anyway, most of our special operations team members are from the south. Almost everyone can swim and have undergone relevant training. In addition, the temperature is now the highest of the year. In July, the water temperature is very suitable for swimming, even crossing the Yangtze River is not a big problem, but we have not conducted training on boarding operations!" Zhang Shaolin said.
"Monk, it is true that you have not trained to seize warships, but you can still get close to the Japanese warship easily when the visibility is low at night. Then with your skills, as long as you get close to the warship, the next thing will be much easier to handle. .¡±
Li Guoyao then said: "The most important thing is that the Japanese Navy never thought that we would have such a special force. This is to attack them unprepared. I think as long as the tactics are used properly, the success rate is still very high."
Zhang Shaolin looked at the map, and then said: "If we seize a warship, the success rate is indeed very high, but what happens after that? We are not a navy, and we have never learned to drive a warship. Even if we seize control of a warship, So what, we can¡¯t drive away!¡±
"You don't need to worry about this. Someone will help you operate the warship when the time comes!" Li Guoyao said.
"That's good!"
"Go and prepare. We will enter the river from the direction of Laozhakou in half an hour. I'm waiting for your good news!"
"yes!"
