Chapter 622 Bloody Battle (25)
Ouyang Yun had considered such a problem since the beginning of his stay.If the Japanese army wanted to encircle and annihilate themselves regardless of their disregard, would they still insist on their original intention and ensure that most of the people in Nanjing would be evacuated?

Ouyang Yun is not a saint. Even if he is a saint, his ass decides his head. He can disregard life and death, but he has to consider the safety of his subordinates, the Sichuan Army and the Northeast Army.

Before Lao Jiang held a meeting, Liu Xiang, the top leader of the Sichuan Army, was sent to Hankou for medical treatment because of illness.As for the Northeast Army, although the young commander told him to build it up, if the two divisions were really exhausted, what face would he have to see the young commander again?Another very important point is that the Nanjing garrison is not monolithic. If there is a situation of siege, even if the Xuebing Army, the Northeast Army and the Sichuan Army can overcome the national crisis together, what about the Central Army?Although Wang Tianfu, Fu Kaixing, and Wang Xu (the three division commanders of the Central Army) all strongly requested to join the front-line troops when assigning front-line combat tasks, Ouyang Yun did not dare to entrust them with important tasks due to historical experience.

The so-called second set of combat plans was formulated for breaking out.Once this happens, the defenders will abandon their first-line positions and turn to street fighting with the Japanese army, using the complex terrain in Nanjing to consume the Japanese army. At the same time, they will organize two divisions to cross the Yangtze River north to ensure the safety of the retreat.

Be it Zhu Zaiting or Xie Chang'an, including Qian Guangming, although the three brigade commanders rushed forward indomitably and quickly gained a suppressive advantage, there was always a shadow in the hearts of the three.The 9th Division spent a huge amount of money to blow up the 200-meter-long Ming city wall. Wouldn't it be a joke if only the current means were available?
The Japanese are not so easy, are they?

After Liu Zheliang conveyed Ouyang Yun's order through the walkie-talkie, Qian Guangming began to control the formation and advance speed of the troops, and at the same time issued a "blasting order".

The "Demolition Order" was issued by Ouyang Yun after the discovery of the new Japanese tanks during the Battle of Pukou—once the tank loses its ability to move, the crew is responsible for completely blasting it to ensure that some key equipment will not fall into the hands of the Japanese army.

In that time and space, the rise of Japan was caused by the excellent imitation and innovation capabilities of the Japanese. In view of this, Ouyang Yun now had to adjust his previous strategy - to help the little devil become stronger?Enough is enough, if the other party is stronger than him, then the country is over, wouldn't he, Ouyang Yun, become a sinner in history?That would really be infamous.

As for the defenders, there were only two regiments of infantry that actually entered the battlefield. After the fight just now, the total number of these two regiments is now only about 1000 or 1000 people. [-] and [-] people followed closely behind the tank formation and moved forward, because with the cover of the tanks, they no longer needed to do the hard work of fighting and stabbing.Now they only need to follow behind with their guns in hand to pick out the fish that slipped through the net.

After the tank regiment slowed down, the infantry also slowed down.Kuang Cheng led his men to run wildly for about 10 minutes and arrived at the battlefield. Then, a company of people dispersed and quickly conveyed Ouyang Yun's order.

At this time, the Japanese army began to retreat.Xie Chang'an, Zhu Zaiting and others who had received the order immediately realized that the little devil might be about to kill him when they saw it. Therefore, the two regiment leaders gave the order, and the defenders did not advance but retreated, and ran to the back one after another.As a result, a ridiculous scene appeared on the battlefield. The two sides who were fighting in the middle of the battle were scrambling to retreat to the rear. "Woolen cloth.

A few minutes later, there was thunder in the distance, and the sound of shells piercing through the air became the most ear-piercing sound on the battlefield. Whether it was the Japanese army or the Chinese army, everyone's expressions changed immediately.

The tank phalanx was the key target of the Japanese bombardment from the very beginning. When one tank after another was knocked down, and even exploded violently and turned into a burning pile of fire, Qian Guangming saw this scene and thought that this would not work. Well, it is the fate of the whole regiment's destruction. "Everyone spread out and stay away from each other. I repeat again, once you lose the ability to maneuver, blast it immediately! Don't feel bad, brothers, as long as you can go back alive, you can drive the tank."

The violent shelling lasted for 10 to [-] minutes, continuing from the battlefield into the city.Ryosuke Yoshizuki was so ruthless this time that he ordered all the shells to be fired, and the tank regiment suffered heavy losses in this shelling. Of the more than [-] tanks, only [-] of them were withdrawn to a safe area in the end, including Two were seriously injured.

In Qian Guangming's command post, soon, the self-propelled artillery brigade who was ordered to arrive at the third position called and reported to Ouyang Yun that they were ready for a counterattack.

Ouyang Yun handed the phone to Bai Xiaofeng, a staff officer of the Artillery Division.The latter was responsible for surveying Japanese artillery positions.Bai Xiaofeng had been observing and counting the shooting of Zhu Yuan as early as when the Japanese army fired the first shot. After answering the phone, he immediately reported the data.A few minutes later, in the southeast direction of Zijin Mountain in Nanjing City, there was a dull thunderclap-after 10 minutes of the Japanese heavy artillery unit's prestige, the artillery of the Xuebing Army finally began to fight back.

Fire dragons came roaring from the direction of Zijin Mountain. Zhu Zaiting and the thirty or so Sichuan soldiers stopped at the same time and looked up amidst the hissing sound.

"Traveler, it's our artillery!"

"The artillerymen of the Xuebing Army have finally shown their power. He NND, why didn't Ouyang Yun, a son of a bitch, fire the cannons sooner? If it had been earlier, my brother might not have died." The one who spoke was a strong man with a thick face. , holding a bloody arm in his left hand, and carrying a young Sichuan soldier covered in blood and missing his left arm on his back.

Zhu Zaiting ignored the soldiers around him. He turned his head and looked back. The Japanese artillery was still raging, and the nearest bombing point was 20 meters away.The smoke and dust from the explosion covered the sky and the sun. At this moment, this place is not like the world, but more like hell.The charge was not initiated by him, but without his call, it is estimated that the current situation would not have formed.The situation at that time, if you stick to it, you should be able to hold on, right?He was thinking like this, and he didn't know whether his previous decision was right or wrong—almost 2000 people went out, and now he came back, he looked at it seriously, calculated silently in his heart, and was very silent—— Up to 500 people.In order to cover the infantry retreat as much as possible, Qian Guangming ordered the tank regiment to be the last to leave the battlefield.Now, the tank regiment is still surrounded by artillery fire.

"The little devil is so fucking ruthless, he even dares to blow up his own people."

"Fuck me, I didn't die. I made a lot of money this time. I killed at least five of them. Big blackhead, how many did you kill?"

The big black head is the guy with the fleshy face, with anger in his eyes and tears hanging from the corners of his eyes, he roared: "No matter how much I kill, I will be a bird, my brother is dead—5555... let me go back How can you explain to my mother and father! Ouyang Yun, the son of a bitch, since the Xuebing Army has cannons, why didn't they take them out sooner!"

The shells of "Woo" pierced the air, and the battalion commander who was walking at the back shouted: "Lie down!" Then he rushed towards Zhu Zaiting and pressed him under him.

The shell exploded five meters away from them, and there was a loud "boom". Three people in the team of more than thirty people were killed on the spot, and five people were injured by shrapnel.

Zhu Zaiting was awakened by the explosion. After getting up, he picked up a wounded man and shouted: "Brothers, if you want to survive, run away!"

The artillery of the Xuebing Army has not appeared frequently so far. Perhaps it is because of this reason that when Ichiro Hatoyama, the commander of the Heavy Artillery Regiment of the 9th Division, commanded the troops to continue the artillery bombardment, he did not realize that they also There will be retaliatory shelling.

The self-propelled artillery of a brigade of the Xuebing Army reached an astonishing 54 pieces.The Japanese army has three heavy artillery brigades under the jurisdiction of a heavy artillery regiment, each with twelve 150mm cannons, which add up to only 36 guns. 54 gates against 36 gates, it was intentional and unintentional, and the result is self-evident.After the self-propelled artillery of the Xuebing Army fired five shots rapidly, there were only three cannons left on the Japanese artillery positions that could still stand upright.

Hatoyama Ichiro was lucky enough to escape this round of cover bombardment. Seeing that the situation was not right, he thought that if he encountered the tank unit of the Xuebing Army again, he would need heavy artillery to deal with it. He decisively ordered to withdraw from the position and dragged it with three trucks. Dragging the three cannons, he fled in a panic from the position where the fireworks were raging.

Just after the Japanese artillery was all silent, Bai Xiaofeng acted decisively and decisively commanded the artillery brigade to launch a round of pursuit on the retreating Japanese 6th Brigade.

Akiyama Yoshiyoshi's 6th Brigade, before attacking Guanghuamen, had only three brigades left. One brigade was wiped out yesterday, and only two brigades fought hand-to-hand this time.The devils from the two brigades lost five or six hundred people in the mutual attack with the infantry led by Zhu Zaiting and Xie Changan. Later, they were ravaged by the tank regiment led by Qian Guangming and killed more than five hundred people. They were killed by their own artillery. More than 700 people were swallowed up, and there were only [-] people left. After being chased by this round of artillery fire, only [-] people remained in the Japanese army's main line safely.

For Yoshizuka Ryosuke, the appearance of the Xuebing Army artillery is undoubtedly another accident.And the appearance of this accident also made him have to reconsider whether the previous combat plan was necessary to continue.Unlike Gu Hisao and others, he has fought many times with the Xuebing Army, and he knows the characteristics of the Xuebing Army's artillery unit-that is, its terrible mobility.Under the current technical level, self-propelled artillery is definitely a high-end weapon.After the Second Great Wall Battle, the Kwantung Army once tried every means to obtain the relevant technical parameters of self-propelled artillery. However, because the Xuebing Army gave up North China and moved to Fujian and Guangdong, all the arrangements of the Kwantung Army fell through.

After moving from Pukou to Nanjing, Ouyang Yun hid most of the artillery division tightly.His original idea was to use it as a trump card, but after the Japanese reconnaissance planes dispatched reconnaissance repeatedly but only found one at the riverside, he thought that most of the artillery of the Xuebing Army had already gone to Wuhu, and even returned to Fujian and Guangdong. .This will be the unscrupulous bombardment.

Now, the artillery of the Xuebing Army is showing its glory, Yoshizuki Ryosuke naturally does not dare to take it lightly, and the battle plan he has drawn up has to be put on hold for the time being.

At about ten o'clock in the morning, the fighting on the Nanjing battlefield with Guanghuamen as the center ceased temporarily.
