Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 476 Changping Night ([-])

It was already more than two o'clock in the morning, and the most stalemate of the battle still took place in the "mud puddle".At this point in the war, there is no technology to speak of.What He Zhengjiang can do now is to organize the manpower to attack again and again with the support of artillery fire.And Fengwen Yamashita, who already knew that he had become an abandoned son, was fighting against the machine walking brigade with a brute force at this moment.

Two hours passed quickly, and the regiment of the mechanized infantry brigade that entered the battle first suffered more than 30.00% casualties, and soon became immobilized.

The losses of the Japanese army were no less than theirs, and nine out of ten of them fell under the shelling.The artillery of the Xuebing Army has not stopped since the start of the sneak attack, and the continuous shelling almost flattened the "mud puddle".Squad after squad of devils was maimed, even the whole team was wiped out, and then another squad filled in. It is not an exaggeration to use a meat grinder to describe this "mud puddle" offensive and defensive battle.

This is not all about tonight's battle. On the two wings centered on the "mud puddle", small assault troops from both sides are entangled with each other from time to time in a criss-cross pattern. ) The exhausted battle reports were sent back to the headquarters of both sides.

The battle situation was unprecedentedly tragic, and this level of tragedy was unprecedented in the history of the Xuebing Army.The root cause is the switching of the roles of offense and defense.When the vanguard regiment led by He Zhengjiang lost almost half of its strength, several young staff officers in the army staff department lost their temper, and someone tentatively proposed to Ouyang Yun: "Military seat, it's impossible to fight like this! The casualties are too serious, if it continues like this, I'm afraid it will affect the morale of the whole army."

At this moment, Ouyang Yun stood still like a mountain, raised his head from the map, gave the staff officer a cold look, and asked, "Has Brigadier He asked for help?"

"No."

"That means they can hold on. Well, have the Mech Brigade and the tank regiment directly under the army come over?"

"The assembly point has been reached."

"If He Zhengjiang asks for help, let the first regiment of chariots go up. The second regiment of chariots, let Cheng Gang wait!"

The Second Great Wall Anti-Japanese War has been fought so far, and the Xuebing Army has not actually fought any tough battles. This may not be a good thing for the young Xuebing Army.Ouyang Yun is not a god, and the young apprentice army is not an ever-victorious army, and it is only a matter of time before they are defeated.The key question is whether the troops are psychologically prepared to digest and absorb the defeat.If it fails like a mountain, the consequences will be unimaginable.In this way, it is not necessarily a bad thing to let a unit with advanced equipment and army building ideas like the Mechanized Infantry Brigade gnaw hard battles.

In the current war in North China, it is clear that the Xuebing Army has taken the upper hand and has taken the initiative, and the 57th Army has not yet moved much.However, considering the scale of this battle and the area it has affected, this advantage is actually very one-sided.Any mistakes in Chahar or Shandong will definitely destroy the advantages Hebei has already gained.

Ouyang Yun was contemplating when a figure appeared at the door of the tent and saluted loudly: "Report, the reconnaissance team found the main force of the Japanese army, ten miles away from Li's village."

"Here we come!" Ouyang Yun threw the cigarette butt in his hand, and shouted: "Don't wait for He Zhengjiang to ask for help, the chariots will go directly!"

"Yes!" Immediately the staff officer on duty responded loudly.

Ten minutes later, the sound of rumbling motors could be heard faintly. Ouyang Yun walked out of the tent, picked up the binoculars and looked in the direction of the "mud puddle".

Behind a simple fortification under the "mud puddle" high ground, he heard the roar of a motor, He Zhengjiang spat, and said fiercely: "Geng Changshu of Gou Ri is finally here, brothers, brothers who are going to die for the battle Revenge, fill up the magazines for me!"

For Brigadier He Da of the Mechanized Infantry Brigade, who is used to being able to stabilize the situation as soon as he strikes, today's battle was useless.Several times, I clearly felt that I could take it down, but at a place less than ten meters away from the top of the highland, densely packed devils showed their heads again. Amidst the sound of three-eighth gunshots and the explosion of melon grenades, the charging The troops had to withdraw again, and it was inevitable that a few or even a dozen corpses would be left behind in a round trip.

At first, Brigadier He Da did not believe in evil—"Is it true that our machine-step regiment is nothing if we leave the chariot regiment?" He asked Qiu Hongming, the commander of the machine-step regiment, loudly.

Qiu Hongming's eyes were already red because of the heavy casualties of his subordinates. Hearing the words, he roared, "Shit! I will lead the team personally, I don't believe it..." Before he could finish speaking, a stray bullet flew over him, and he said, "Ugh! " With a sound, he hugged his left shoulder and fell down.

He Zhengjiang hurriedly called for the medical soldiers, then helped him up and asked, "Are you all right?"

"It's okay, I was bitten by a mosquito." After a pause, Qiu Hongming asked unwillingly: "Lu Zuo, this battle was fought, why? Why didn't the military seat directly let the cannon blow up here?!"

This problem actually troubled most of the officers and soldiers of the Mechanized Army Regiment. Of course, He Zhengjiang had thought about it a long time ago. He bit his lip and said, "Maybe the military commander wants to save shells!"

"Fart, can the lives of the brothers be exchanged for a few shells? I..."

Seeing his rude words, He Zhengjiang's face changed, and he shouted: "Qiu Hongming, pay attention to your words, you kid wants to disturb the morale of the army!" He quickly looked around and found that not many people paid attention to this place, so he calmed down a little , said in a low voice: "Your thinking is wrong! What? We can't beat the devils without cannons? You have forgotten your grandma's class in the military academy?"

As soon as Qiu Hongming said the words, he felt something was wrong, and at this moment he said sullenly: "I just feel sorry for you, how many good brothers, I'm leaving now!" As he spoke, his eyes turned red, and he was on the verge of tears.

He Zhengjiang also felt very angry and uncomfortable with such a large number of casualties in the machine step group.Originally, he also complained a lot about the arrangement of the little chief this time. In his opinion, there is really no need for such a head-on attack on the 40th Brigade.He even thought, why not just bite, and wait for Tianming to let the First Division of Kong solve it!It's just a matter of hundreds of bombs.Now, seeing Qiu Hongming uttered his heart-breaking words, he realized that this was not just his own thoughts. He began to seriously consider this issue, and later said: "Old Qiu, I don't agree with your statement. We There are still battles with the little devils, but not always with the support of tanks and cannons. Think about it, if one day we lose tanks, planes, and cannons, don’t we stop fighting? ! By the same token, if we don’t have trucks for transportation, then we can’t march with our feet?!”

Qiu Hongming didn't expect so much, he murmured: "Traveler, I just feel useless! This makes me how to face the families of my brothers in the future! Many people paid special visits to me before the expedition, I I also promised them that I will bring the brothers back safely!"

"Don't be stupid, there is no one who is immortal in a war! Didn't the military seat say that? If we really wait until the day when the little devil can be driven away, there is no telling how many of us will survive, and maybe all of us will die in battle." Not sure. What? Then you won’t join the army to fight devils?”

The two were talking, when Wang Dayou ran over and saw He Zhengjiang hurriedly said: "Traveler, this battle can't be fought, our third battalion now only has the ninth company intact, the seventh company, There is no platoon in the eight companies!"

The third battalion already had a certain degree of casualties due to the previous battles, but this time the battle was the toughest, and such casualties were inevitable.

He Zhengjiang's face became even more gloomy, and he shouted: "If you can't fight, you have to fight if you can't fight! If the soldier is dead, go to the squad leader, and if the squad leader is dead, there is still the platoon leader. There is really no one left, isn't it still there?" Do you have me? Tell the brothers, don’t expect to retreat, the devils from the 40th Brigade dare to greet us with gas bombs, and we must pay with blood!" Xu Shi felt that his tone was a bit harsh, so he paused and eased With a lighter tone, he said: "Okay, the chariot regiment is here, let the brothers prepare for revenge!"

"Geng Changshu and the others have come up? Great! Traveler, I request that our third battalion go up first!"

He Zhengjiang saw that as soon as he heard the tank troops coming up, he immediately changed from "Yang Bailao" as the military seat said to "Huang Shiren". Go down the mountain and get Fengwen's head!"

While He Zhengjiang and other cadet army officers were feeling indignant and heartbroken for the huge casualties of their own side, the head of the 40th Brigade, Major General Yamashita Homofumi, felt as uncomfortable as claws scratching his heart at the moment.If possible, he now wanted to shoot out all the remaining mustard gas bombs in his hand.Of course, because the artillery unit to which he belonged was targeted by the artillery of the Xuebing Army from the very beginning, it is impossible for him to realize his obsession now.

The Xuebing army's attack was unprecedentedly ferocious, and its tactics were quite simple. Apart from some tricks they had played before, they were shelling and infantry charging.This kind of tactical literacy does not fall into the eyes of Yamashita, who considers himself a master of the art of war, but the meaning he wants to convey has aroused his vigilance.The Chinese people are expressing a kind of determination, right?This is different from the Chinese people he thought.In his original impression, Chinese people were hypocritical, extravagant, selfish, stupid, and snobbish, and they would definitely not make such a head-on move, and they would obviously suffer a loss.Ordinarily, he should feel lucky for the Chinese to make such a stupid tactical arrangement, and should deeply despise it.However, when the troops suffered huge casualties under this simple tactic, he was scared!Really afraid, how many Chinese people are there?If all Chinese dare to ignore life and death, is it possible for the empire to realize its so-called Chinese strategy?

For the first time, he felt deep doubts!
He was thinking wildly, when the sound of rumbling motors came from the position of the Xuebing Army.He immediately realized that it was the chariot troops of the Chinese people who were dispatched, and couldn't help trembling in his heart, and said secretly: This time, it seems that I am a lost child!Alright, then, as the Commander defined, for His Majesty's great cause, let's break the jade!
