Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 737 Bloody Battle at Taierzhuang ([-])

The rumbling sound of the artillery sounded, and hundreds of shells whizzed past surrounded by fireballs, smashing into the Japanese positions not far away.After a day of silence, the defenders' artillery units finally began to show their power.

"Boom!" As the first explosion reached Antenliji's ears, the old devil's face changed in horror—could the Chinese be launching a counterattack?Impossible, the imperial army is now hoarding [-] troops along the Taierzhuang line.He thought for a while and dared not be careless, and immediately issued an order to ask the Japanese troops at the East Gate and North Gate to strengthen their vigilance to prevent the defenders from counterattacking, and at the same time let the artillery find the location of the enemy artillery positions and implement fire suppression.Then he decided to personally lead the reserve force to support the Northwest Gate.

The battle on the front line of Taierzhuang was raging like a raging fire. In a village three kilometers southeast of Taierzhuang, the officers and soldiers of the First School Brigade led by Guo Muyi were ready for battle.

The First Xue Brigade marched here at 02:30 in the morning, and the tank troops followed closely behind, ambush three kilometers behind the First Xue Brigade.Antengliji's security work is very good, and there are a large number of patrol teams behind him.Ge Zengfu personally organized manpower to carry out the culling and killed four Japanese patrol teams before the large forces.

In the direction of Taierzhuang, the battle at Ximen has never ceased from beginning to end. Flares and explosions that rise from time to time guide the direction of the raiding troops.Guo Muyi was worried that the Japanese would notice if she got too close, so she stopped two kilometers away from Taierzhuang. "Now, just wait for Li Pinxian to send an attack signal!" Although Guo Muyi first proposed the raid plan, he still felt a little nervous at the moment.

The signal flare fired by Li Pinxian was not only an offensive signal for the 31st Army's night raid, but also a signal for the Xuebing Army to launch a surprise attack.The signal flare went up, and Guo Muyi immediately gave the order to attack.

"Yes! Brothers, let's go!" Liu Shurong shouted in a low voice, turning on the flashlight in his hand.This was the action signal he had agreed with his subordinates. The light of the flashlight suddenly broke through the darkness of the ambush, and the officers and soldiers of the three regiments of the First School Brigade immediately stood up and rushed towards the northwest gate of Taierzhuang under the yelling of their respective officers.

At the same time, Guo Muyi gave an attack order to the tank troops behind through the walkie-talkie.

"He NND, finally started! Start the machine and move forward at full speed!" Wu Kezhi yelled into the walkie-talkie in the command car, shook his head, and shook off his sleepiness and fatigue.

During the Second Great Wall Anti-Japanese War, He Zhengsheng, the commander of the Third Xue Division, became famous because he commanded the tank unit in the first battle, so he was promoted from the leader of the mechanized infantry brigade tank regiment to the commander of the Third Xue Division.During the Battle of Nanjing, only the Third Division of the Xueyi Army fought in the Pukou tank battle. Qian Guangming, who was the commander of the tank brigade of the third division at the time, also became famous in the first battle. Now he has been transferred to the Army Headquarters as the commander of the tank division.The brilliant victories created by the predecessors because of commanding the tank troops inspired Wu Kezhi all the time, and made him highly excited.

76 Jiguang tanks of various types hummed, and the smell of diesel oil filled the air. Wu Kezhi took a deep breath, opened the end cover, and directly got out of the tank to command.

Once the headlights of the tank were turned on, the darkness was dispelled, and a not-so-wide road appeared in front of the drivers.The tank group was like a group of monsters, roaring and rushing towards Taierzhuang.

The rumble of the cannon rang out, and the hissing of the motor a few kilometers away was covered.According to the pre-war arrangement, Liu Shurong left a battalion of elite fighters to take tanks to provide direct protection for the tank troops, while the others divided into two columns and quickly ran towards the most shining place in Taierzhuang.

The battle of Taierzhuang in this time and space is different from the time and space where Ouyang Yun lived. In that time and space, because the Japanese army base camp had the meaning of "not expanding", the Japanese army attacking Taierzhuang was completely "not subject to orders from foreign troops"—whether it is a detachment Regardless of whether it was the Seya detachment or the Seya detachment, Raben Shun and Seya Qi attacked Taierzhuang privately without receiving orders from the base camp and the front army. As a result, they were surrounded and killed by Li Zongren who took advantage of the situation and killed more than ten thousand devils.However, even though it is called a great victory, the Chinese army has lost more than [-] people, which is equivalent to exchanging three of its own for one devil. In fact, it has suffered a big loss.

In this time and space, although the Japanese base camp also held the purpose of "non-expansion", the four Japanese troops attacking Taierzhuang were under the command of the North China Front Army and coordinated.In that time and space, there were only [-] Japanese troops participating in the Battle of Taierzhuang. In this time and space, the number of Japanese troops reached more than [-]. This battle is no longer comparable to that time and space.

The night attack organized by Li Pinxian, because of the participation of artillery, no matter whether it was a real attack or a fake attack, the momentum created was really amazing, and it broke the current balance of the Taierzhuang battlefield at once.

The first to be affected is the Iteng Division, which bears the brunt. Iteng Liji's attention is completely attracted by the frontal battlefield, and the attention and protection for the flanks are naturally insufficient.The Seya detachment had been maintaining an offensive posture towards the west gate before, but at this time they were also alarmed by the sudden change in the northwest gate. They didn't know what was going on there. Out of prudence, they shrunk their line of defense and changed from an offensive posture to a defensive posture. At the same time, they began to fight with An Teng Liji contacted to know the exact situation there.The Isoya Division has been looking for a fighter in the west of Taierzhuang. With the strength of the Isoya Division, it is completely possible to force the canal. However, Isoya Rensuke has not implemented this operation for a long time, because he is counting on the 5th Division and the The Segu detachment was able to force Li Zongren to invest more troops in Taierzhuang, so that after forcibly crossing the canal, it was able to kill Tongshan directly and complete the feat of besieging the enemy in Taierzhuang.Isotani Rensuke was woken up by his subordinates and learned of the latest battle report from Taierzhuang. He frowned and muttered: "What do the Chinese want to do? Cut off the connection between the 5th Division and the Seya Detachment, and concentrate on attacking one part? Li Zongren didn't Isn’t it so stupid? The defense lines of the 5th Division and the Seya Detachment are completely connected, and the Chinese people cut straight in. How different is it from dying? No, there is something weird in it.”

"Your Excellency, Commander, what should we do now?" Chief of Staff Umemura Okiro asked humbly.

"Stand still. General Iteng still has 2 people in his hands. Hmph, even if Li Zongren dared to make such a dangerous move, it is impossible to defeat the Anten division in a short time. Our department will follow the original plan."

"Hay!"

The Isoya Division ran along the Grand Canal for a day, and tried to attack several times during the period. The soldiers were all exhausted. Except for the defense troops, everyone else fell asleep early.They were suddenly awakened by the sound of huge guns, and out of instinct, they hurriedly dressed and prepared their weapons and prepared for battle.The devils of the Isoya Division were so nervous because they were too close to the battlefield. The close combat prevented them from making correct judgments. They had to prepare for the battle first so that they could enter the battlefield at any time.However, what they finally waited for was not an order to fight, but to continue to rest.

Isotani Rensuke made a mistake here. If he decisively commanded the troops to enter the Taierzhuang battlefield at this time, then Guo Muyi's surprise attack would definitely fall short.

A week later, when the news of Taierzhuang's great victory reached the headquarters of the Guangzhou Xuebing Army, and when Ouyang Yun and others were replaying the game on the sand table, the first reaction of all those who participated in the replay was to call it a fluke.

Ouyang Yun pointed to the small blue flag representing the Isoya Division and said: "The Japanese army did not suffer a loss. Changqiao, where the Isogu Division is located, is only five kilometers away from Taierzhuang. If you march quickly, you can reach the battlefield in an hour. Strange, Isoya Rensuke stayed here until 04:30, this hour and a half is a great gift from Isoya Rensuke to Guo Muyi. If the Isoya Division supports from the beginning Taierzhuang, what will that look like?"

At 04:30, the situation on the Taierzhuang battlefield was at its most chaotic.At four o'clock, Huang Haifu, the commander of the mountain division, made a decision to decisively command the Eagle Cliff Brigade serving as a reserve team to launch a cross-river attack from the direction of Hanjiasi.Half an hour later, the Yingya brigade successfully crossed the river, and then launched a fierce attack on the Japanese army outside the east gate.The devils had already struggled to cope with the counterattack of the 31st Army at the East Gate, but they were caught off guard by the Eagle Cliff Brigade, and the line of defense was broken through immediately.This is the key to the Battle of Taierzhuang.After the devils were defeated, the Japanese army at the North Gate was immediately encircled.Li Pinxian and Huang Haifu made a wise decision at this time. The devils who surrounded the North Gate did not launch a strong attack to encircle and wipe them out. Instead, they quickly supported the raiding troops and concentrated their superior forces to completely give the main force of the 5th Division at the Northwest Gate. washed out...

"If Rensuke Isotani supported Taierzhuang at the beginning, then the Seya detachment could completely ignore Ximen's second school brigade, and turn to attack the 31st Army's interspersed troops in front of the Northwest Gate. In that case, the first to be defeated will be the 31st Army After that, Guo Muyi's troops will become a lone army, and they can only choose to withdraw from the battlefield. However, I guess Anteng Liji will definitely not let him go easily. We will suffer heavy losses in this battle, Xuebing The army's journey on the Xuzhou battlefield will end ahead of schedule," Li Tieshu said, and then he exchanged glances with everyone and sighed, "Guo Muyi is not only extremely courageous, but also surprisingly lucky!"

Guo Muyi's luck was really good. The first to be captured by the raiding force was a mountain artillery brigade and two heavy artillery squadrons from the 5th Division.When Ge Zengfu told Guo Muyi the information that his subordinates accidentally discovered the Japanese artillery position, the latter did not believe it at first.He asked repeatedly: "Is it true? In what direction, how many devils are defending?! What type of gun?"

There was a reason why Guo Muyi was so excited.Compared with the Japanese Qiluo and Dou Zhan, laser tanks are invincible.If the Japanese army did not have heavy artillery, the defenders could use tank troops as the guide to counterattack the Japanese army.No matter how high the quality of the individual soldiers of the Japanese army is and how strong their morale is, in the face of laser tanks, the great weapon of attack, the Japanese army has only one end, and they have to evacuate the Taierzhuang battlefield as soon as possible.

The reason why the sneak attack on LY was able to achieve an overwhelming victory was, on the one hand, of course related to Banben Shun's active death, and on the other hand, because the Banben detachment did not have weapons to suppress laser tanks, so they were in a passive situation from beginning to end.

When Guo Muyi formulated the raid tactics, he required the tank troops to rush into the enemy group as quickly as possible. One of the concerns was the heavy artillery of the Japanese army.But once they broke into the enemy group and engulfed the Japanese infantry, the Japanese artillery would not dare to shell indiscriminately. In this way, the chances of survival of the tank troops were greatly improved, so that they could exert their due power, and the raid troops could also exert their miraculous effects.

Ge Zengfu understood why he was so excited. The troops left by Antengliji to protect the artillery position were no more than one squadron. The raiding force could completely wipe out these devils, and then seize the cannons to deal with the Japanese army.He said: "The devil's artillery position is two kilometers to the left. A squadron of devils is defending, and it seems to have heavy artillery!"

"That's great, God help me too!" Guo Muyi said excitedly, then immediately called Zuo Anan over, and said to him, "Ansan, gather the three regiments as soon as possible. Battalion Commander Ge and the others found the devil artillery position." , There is only one squadron of devils defending. Take it as quickly as possible, and then directly aim at the devils, and bombard him. Hurry up, go, there are still 5 minutes, and our shelling will stop. "

The defenders on the west side of the canal carried out shelling with only one purpose, to cover up the roar of the tanks with the rumble of cannons.In order to avoid accidentally bombing the raiding troops, the duration of the shelling was agreed to be 10 minutes.It was already a quarter past four, and there were still five minutes before the bombardment would stop, and it was time for the raiding force to attack.

On the battlefield two kilometers away, the sound of shouts and guns rang together, and a cloud of fireworks from time to time set off one or two bodies. Human beings who regard themselves as masters of the land are as worthless as ants in the face of war——Sato Yoshitoshi The husband stood behind a 150mm howitzer, watching the miserable scene on the battlefield not far away, squinting his eyes, with an extremely ferocious expression on his face.

Sato longs for war. He feels that only war can embody the meaning of a man as the leader of this world.Sato was also eager to kill, and every time he captured a place, he would ignore military discipline and indulge his subordinates in robbing, killing and looting.Sato's mantra is: Chinese people are low-level people, with their IQ, they will not understand the true meaning of life.Sato was strict in running the army. Taking the present as an example, more than [-] soldiers under his command protected the artillery positions, and he did not dare to slack in the slightest because he was in the rear.Unbeknownst to Sato, his head had already been trapped by the sight of a Wei Qing sniper rifle.

Zuo Pingan personally led the three regiments to carry out this operation. Taking advantage of the loud noise on the battlefield not far away, he led the three regiments to approach Sato Squadron without anyone noticing, and then launched an attack immediately when the gunfire on the main battlefield stopped .

"Kill!" The left safety was only more than 50 meters away from Sato, and he shouted loudly, Sato immediately turned his head, and then, just as he opened his lips, he was hit by a sniper who was ready to go, and his head immediately slammed It burst open like a ripe watermelon after autumn.

A flare rose into the sky, "Hit!" "Da da da!" The devil at your fingertips.

The sound of guns suddenly sounded, and a large number of Japanese soldiers who were waiting in battle immediately fell down.Only then did the devil officer react, calling "enemy attack" repeatedly, and commanding the troops to launch a counterattack.

The Japanese reaction was too late.Yoshio Sato's rigorous way of running the army made his subordinates step into hell faster - the standing devils could not hide under the illumination of the flares, and each one was like a living target.

At this time, the Japanese artillerymen were conscientiously preparing for the shelling. The sudden attack caused many gunners to pull the lead wires in a panic. Several cannons sounded, and the little devil's artillery became a mess.

"Kill 'em! Try not to use grenades!"

"Understood, our broadsword hasn't drunk blood for a long time."

The task of the third regiment was to seize the enemy's artillery, and the devil's artillery shells were all over the ground. Zuo Pingan was worried that the abuse of grenades would cause the shells to explode, so he quickly adjusted his combat methods.

The devils didn't dare to throw grenades around, so the soldiers from both sides charged together and started a bloody hand-to-hand battle.

The Xuebing army has an absolute advantage in terms of military strength, and it is based on mental calculations without intention. In addition, Yoshio Sato was killed at the beginning, the Japanese army has no leader, and the command is at a loss. The battle has shown a one-sided situation from the beginning.

Except for the officers with pistols, the devil artillery is empty-handed.This is the sorrow of artillery, they are the kings of foot combat at a long distance, but once they are pulled closer, they become the targets of slaughter.In just 15 minutes, the entire Sato Squadron was wiped out. Seeing that the situation was not right, the Devil Artillery fled towards the northwest gate one after another.

"Traveler, do you want to chase or not?" Xu Yizhen, the head of the third regiment, arranged a battalion of soldiers to clean up the battlefield, treat the wounded, refill the wounded devils, and ask Zuo Security for instructions.

"Don't chase the poor. It's too close to the main force of the devils. You should deploy your defenses quickly. What about the mortar soldiers of your regiment? Tell them to adjust their positions quickly. This time, I will let the little devils experience being bombarded by their own cannons." taste."

Almost at the same time when the third regiment launched an attack on the Devil artillery position, Guo Muyi gave an order, and Wu Kezhi's tank unit, carrying a battalion of elite soldiers, rushed to the Japanese position at the Northwest Gate, and the large infantry unit immediately followed. Follow up.

Guo Muyi's order to Wu Kezhi was: "Rush in, use shells, sweep with machine guns, and make a way."

In the first trench dug by the Japanese army in front of the Northwest Gate, Chi Zhenhai has been closely attached to the trench. Suddenly, he took his pocket watch out of his pocket, and shouted, "Brothers, come with me!" Then he took the lead and jumped out of the trench. , rushed to the Japanese position.The brigade took the lead in the fight, and the soldiers of the national army who participated in the night attack were all enthusiastic and rushed out of the trenches shouting.

"Puff, puff..." In the direction of the west gate, a mortar company dispatched by Li Pinxian began to fire grenades frequently. The battlefield that had been silent for less than a few seconds because the defenders stopped shelling just now rang out again with deafening shouts of killing.
