Setonelli is actually very forward-looking, and he guessed at least most of it.
The 36th Infantry Brigade is very strong. Even if the advance regiment tries its best, it will never be their opponent. However, Tang Dao will not easily abandon the Chinese officers and soldiers on the blocking position because of his strong opponent. He will definitely return to the rescue.
"Don't abandon, don't give up" is the soul of the Chinese army. Tang Dao, who is deeply influenced by this spirit, may not be destined to become a famous general who "successfully succeeds and thousands of bones are woven."
But what does that matter? He is Tang Dao and can only do what he thinks is right and do what is useful to the country and nation.
Whether or not you can become a so-called famous general is not considered by Tang Dao.
He was anxious only in front of him.
When the 18th Division escorted the infantry gang of the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade was transferred, the fate of the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade was actually destined. Tang Dao had enough confidence to break through the defense line of hundreds of Japanese infantry.
The victory that had already made a move a week in advance was not within the scope of Tang Dao's anxiety. He was even more anxious than more than a thousand people who were thrown away by him several kilometers away against the 36th Infantry Brigade.
The 36th Infantry Brigade may not be able to break through the blocking defense line for the time being, but they have enough troops and heavy firepower. When the sun rises and the positions are visible, let alone Zhao, Zhou Er's thousands of people, even if he leads the main force of the entire army back to aid, it will be like a moth to the flames.
Because, not far away, there is the 18th Division, the Japanese army has enough reinforcements, and there will be Japanese fighter jets in the sky.
The worst thing is that at this point, he no longer has enough tactical maneuverage space. The Japanese army only needs to draw out another infantry regiment to surround him, No. 3,000 of his men and horses in this wet wilderness.
The three infantry divisions on the Jiashan national defense line used national defense fortifications to resist the bombing of a Japanese infantry division and a heavy artillery brigade, which had long been exhausted. If the Hunan Army had not used the terrible will of the "Xiang Barbarians" to attack again and again, the Japanese army, who suffered several major losses, would have been away from the battlefield every night, and the defense line would have been broken long ago.
Tonight, in order to cooperate with him in the battle, the three infantry divisions took huge risks to leave the relatively solid fortifications and actively attacked the 18th Division. It is almost imagined that their losses will be several times that of the daytime defense battles on weekdays.
It can be said that the victory of this raid on the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade was not only a huge sacrifice made in blocking the position, nor even the sacrifice of the entire advance army, but the sacrifice of all the Chinese in the entire Jiashan defense line.
If the statistics were made after the war, Tang Dao would even be sure that the fewer Chinese soldiers who suffered casualties this night would never be more than the Japanese.
However, it's all worth it.
After hearing Tang Dao's almost fantasy plan a week ago, the two lieutenant generals finally agreed to take the risk, not because Tang Dao's plan was perfect, but because the goal of this complete gambling tactic was tempting enough.
The entire army was fully equipped with elite troops and was surrounded by heavy Japanese troops. The entire army still needed to help. Even if it was not considered bankrupt, it was a bankrupt gambling.
But as long as you can get rid of the heavy artillery brigade, it is worth it.
That's because two lieutenant generals with extremely rich combat experience know that heavy artillery is terrible. If there are no solid fortifications, not to mention their mere two infantry divisions, even if they come with five or six more, they will not have the confidence to face a Japanese infantry division.
When the two lieutenant generals of the army were looking for a light on their backs when they thought they were going to be pursued by a division of the Japanese army with heavy artillery brigade, they would sooner or later be destroyed.
Instead of that, it would be better to use the Tang sword trick, which is almost a gamble.
In the words of General Wu, as long as he can get rid of the Japanese heavy artillery brigade, let alone 3,000 elite troops, even if he multiplies this number by two, the Songjiang Army will make a lot of money, and at least half of the people can leave this completely decaying battlefield alive.
To put it bluntly, the reason why Tang Dao and Advance Group were called abandoned is not that they were abandoned at Baihegang Bridge, but here.
At night, the entire army dispatched to hold back the 20,000 troops of the 18th Division, which was already the limit that the three infantry divisions could do. The fate of the Tang Dao and the Advance Corps could only depend on God.
The advance group at this moment was like a steel knife unsheathed. It slashed the Japanese with one knife and almost didn't hurt, but the knife never returned.
Under the ultimate victory, what is hidden is the crisis of annihilation.
Fortunately, the battle situation exceeded Tang Dao's expectations. The Japanese artillery commander was very determined and independently bombed the cannon after the defense line was broken. But they were still late. Six 150-caliber heavy artillery were taken into account by Tang Dao's main force.
Tang Dao finally won a glimmer of hope for himself and the advance group.
From that moment on, Tang Dao didn't simply want to return to Zhao. Zhou Erren's blocking position was to return to the Jiashan National Defense Line.
Those 150 heavy artillery with sufficient ammunition were the sharpest spears in Tang Dao's hand, and the spears that fought head-on with the powerful 36th Infantry Brigade.
Tang Dao wants to repel the 36th Infantry Brigade.
But big guys like artillery are definitely not allowed to play with cannons. First of all, someone must be able to operate them. Cheng Tietou and a group of elite artillery soldiers were born to play with mortars. There is no problem in controlling small-caliber mortars and even the most commonly used infantry artillery artillery by the Japanese army. They even put 150 heavy artillery flat and turned to the front and could barely do it.
However, if you want to adjust the elevation distance of heavy artillery to launch artillery shelling on the 36th Infantry Brigade more than 6,000 meters away, you really think too much about it.
Even if they have the courage to use it, Tang Dao would not dare.
In that position, in addition to the Japanese, there were also his elite soldiers and generals such as the Sixing Battalion, the Cavalry Battalion, the Fire Support Company, Lei Xiong, Gong Shaoxun, Leng Feng, Li Jiujin, Pang Dahai, Lu Sanjiang, Niu Er, Yang Xiaoshan and other elite soldiers were all there.
Some of these people were the officers he was most optimistic about, and some were the special forces he trained carefully. One of them was so painful that he died, not to mention that they were all shot by a group of artillery soldiers who had not controlled heavy artillery.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Tang Dao would rather bring these elite soldiers and generals to a battle of "Blade tip against Mai Mang" with the Japanese.
Death on the battlefield where the enemy is fighting is the fate of the warrior, but if he dies under the control of his own people, Tang Dao will never forgive him.
The Little Butterfly from the Future is China's strongest individual soldier. He has dabbled in many weapons and models of various types of sea, land and air. Not to mention large-caliber artillery, tanks, helicopters and even fighter jets, but this does not mean that he can immediately get started with the "ancient" cannons produced in the 1930s. He also needs test firing to calibrate the cannon firing fire unit and accuracy.
When Tang Dao first received the seized heavy artillery, he had already thought of a countermeasure.
However, after he got the entire battlefield under his control.
When Setonuchi Li Nakasa, who was changing troops in the 36th Artillery Brigade, summoned his subordinate Guan Zuo to formulate new tactics, the main force led by Tang Dao basically gained control of the battlefield on the position of the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade.
Although the sharp knife troops such as the Sixing Battalion and the Cavalry Battalion were lost, and all mortars were lost, the elite troops like the Security Battalion that had experienced Songjiang Street Fighting were still enough to complete the interlacing and encirclement with not too much strength.
Although the 25mm dual-mounted machine gun seized from the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery brigade has far less performance than the Suluotong machine gun, it is definitely a existence where gods block the killing of gods and Buddhas see and destroy Buddhas.
After a position where more than 600 Japanese troops were captured, and a group of officials, including his major general brigade commander, were killed in the wilderness, the defeat of the Japanese army that had lost command was inevitable.
A large number of Japanese defeated soldiers who had lost their will to fight were killed, but at the same time, many Japanese soldiers chose to kneel down and beg for surrender.
It’s not that their fighting will is not strong enough. In fact, a group of artillery soldiers who didn’t even have a few rifles resisted more than a thousand elite soldiers led by Tang Dao for more than 3 hours. Such a record is enough to make
The 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade, which has disappeared, is proud.
Artillery soldiers who lost their artillery are actually not much stronger than a group of armed militias. Their combat effectiveness is actually far beyond Tang Dao's expectations.
Kneeling on the ground and begging for surrender was the end of the three hours of continuous failure, watching his position being eaten up little by little, and his colleagues were constantly being killed in the wilderness without mercy, and finally the will to survive had the upper hand.
Survival is the instinct of biological beings.
This mill-style attack stimulated the most primitive will to survive in some Japanese artillery soldiers, which was also the result that Tang Dao wanted to see the most.
Because he needed these artillery prisoners of war.
