Beautiful battle of annihilation
The dense forest at the foot of Mahu Mountain is less than one kilometer away from the highway from Nanjing to Zhenjiang. e^See
In this small dense forest, two thousand officers and men of the 137th Regiment, the most powerful main force of the 16th Army of the Sixth Corps, under the command of regiment leader Li Shengda, were like hungry wolves waiting for their prey, relying on the cover of the woods.
Quietly lurking here, waiting for the arrival of Japanese and puppet reinforcements.
At the forefront of the attack position, under the cover of thick bushes, Li Shengda, who had been promoted to regiment commander, was giving specific combat missions to all the battalion and company commanders gathered around him.
"Captain, wouldn't it be too risky to attack the Japanese division headquarters with just the strength of our regiment..." After listening to the introduction of regiment leader Li Shengda, political commissar Wang Zhiguang asked with a worried look on his face.
"The total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops is a full 100,000 people. Their division headquarters will definitely become the object of heavy protection of these 100,000 troops. Among the 100,000 heavy troops, it is almost impossible to directly seize the Japanese division headquarters.
An impossible thing…”
In response to the political commissar's rhetorical question, Li Shengda smiled confidently and then said.
"Political Commissar, when I first accepted this mission, I had the same rhetorical question. However, after listening to the commander's detailed analysis, I am confident in the action we are about to launch."
"Think about it, everyone. Although the total strength of the Japanese and puppet reinforcements in this attack has reached 100,000, the number of elite Japanese infantry soldiers who have actually undergone field training is less than 20,000."
"I won't say much about the puppet army. With the combat effectiveness of our 137th regiment and the existing equipment of the army, coupled with the suddenness of the entire attack, there is no problem at all in breaking through the puppet army's defense line. So, next, I
I want to tell you about the problem of the Japanese army."
"Among the Japanese reinforcements that attacked this time, in addition to their division headquarters being the focus of protection, the two heavy artillery regiments and a field heavy artillery regiment that followed the reinforcements, including their baggage regiment, were all
The focus of protection. Calculated in this way, the number of troops assigned to the division headquarters will not exceed one infantry regiment at most, which is a strength of 4,000 people."
Seeing that everyone nodded in agreement, Captain Li Shengda continued.
"Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that before launching the assault, our artillery unit will concentrate all its firepower and launch a ten-minute artillery attack on the Japanese troops in the middle of the reinforcements. Weapon:
No ads, full text, and the Japanese division headquarters will receive special care from the Rocket Artillery Regiment."
"Think about it, everyone, even if an infantry regiment gathers around the Japanese division headquarters, what will be left in the face of the rocket launcher regiment's sudden attack of six hundred rocket shells? And I 137
After a round of firing by the rocket artillery regiment, other artillery units unexpectedly launched an attack while the other artillery units continued to carry out shelling. You said that the Japanese army, which had been crippled, could withstand our attack.
So I hope that in the battle we are about to face, everyone can continue to carry forward the spirit of our 137th Regiment that is not afraid of sacrifice and marches forward courageously. In the shortest possible time, we can go straight to the Japanese military headquarters and destroy its highest command organ..."
For a moment, everyone's faces were instantly shrouded in excitement. A pair of gleaming eyes stared closely at Captain Li Shengda in front of them, as if they were seeing a lot of military exploits.
"Okay, I have said everything I need to say. Everyone will return to their positions immediately and do a good job in the ideological work of the soldiers. Remember, during the battle, which company dragged the 137th Regiment back, I will find it after the war.
Whose trouble..." Li Shengda finally ordered.
"Captain, please rest assured. This time, our company will definitely capture a Lieutenant General's division commander's command sword and give it to you..." The company commander replied with a hopeful look on his face.
"Why is it your first company? This command knife must belong to our second company..."
………………….
Half an hour passed in a blink of an eye. The figures of the Japanese reinforcements' forward regiment also appeared around the battlefield. In the eyes of all the commanders and soldiers, they saw groups of Japanese and puppet troops passing by in front of them menacingly. Commander Li Shengda
I can't wait to rush onto the highway and tear all these Japanese and puppet troops into pieces.
However, thinking of the mission assigned to him personally by the commander, Li Shengda still suppressed the excitement in his heart and quietly waited for the arrival of the Japanese division headquarters.
Finally, as he waited anxiously, a marching column of about an infantry regiment, composed entirely of Japanese troops, appeared in front of Li Shengda. Among the more than three thousand little devils, he saw several vehicles carrying a large number of radio stations and Japanese troops.
Commander Li Shengda's military truck quickly flashed a sneer on his lips. Then, he ordered in a deep voice to the subordinates behind him.
"Give the order, everyone is here, prepare for an assault..."
Following the crisp sound of weapons being loaded, three sharp explosions of flares immediately reached the ears of everyone on the battlefield. Immediately after, before everyone could react, there was a huge whistling sound that broke through the air.
, ringing in my ears.
"Boom, boom, boom..." A sudden violent explosion almost stunned everyone thousands of meters away. Just when he walked directly opposite the 137th Regiment, there was a dense formation of thousands of Japanese elites.
The marching column was enveloped in flames and thick smoke caused by the instantaneous explosion of more than 600 rockets.
Seeing the Japanese marching column completely shrouded in gunpowder smoke, Li Shengda, the regiment leader, did not know the specific situation. However, knowing the power of the rocket launcher regiment, he did not hesitate to order the troops behind him to attack the surrounding area.
Under the cover of other artillery fire, the attack was launched...
"Comrades, now that tens of thousands of artillery are firing, it is our best opportunity to attack the Japanese headquarters. Now I order the entire regiment to launch an attack immediately. The target is the Japanese division headquarters. Brothers, charge.
Capture Sakata alive…”
"Da da da..." As soon as Li Shengda's command sounded, dozens of heavy machine guns placed on the high ground behind him emitted a dull shooting sound. Dozens of tongues of flame were like an airtight fire net.
, shooting quickly towards the road not far away, which was completely shrouded in gunpowder smoke.
At the same time as the heavy machine guns opened fire, the entire 137th Regiment, with a total of more than 30 light machine guns and nearly a hundred machine gunners, jumped up from the ground. Regardless of the shells whizzing overhead.
, while pulling the trigger of the light machine gun in his hand, firing a dense rain of bullets onto the road, while launching the fastest and most violent attack.
Completely shrouded in gunpowder smoke, the road less than one kilometer in length can be said to be littered with corpses at this moment. On the road that has been completely stained red with blood, there are corpses everywhere, with broken limbs and arms, almost making people unable to put their feet down.
There is no place. It can be said that the instantaneous attack of more than 600 rockets almost caused an infantry regiment around the Japanese division headquarters to completely lose its combat effectiveness.
However, under such a violent blow, Lieutenant General Sakata, as the division commander, survived unharmed under the protection of the guard troops around him.
Smelling the strong smell of blood and gunpowder smoke in the air, I saw the tragic scene in front of me. Even Lieutenant General Sakata, who had been in the army for decades and experienced countless battles, couldn't help but look shocked. However, at this moment
, there was no time left for him to continue to appreciate the scene caused by a salvo of fire from the East China Field Army Rocket Artillery Regiment.
"Reporting to the division commander, the Chinese have begun to attack. About a regiment of troops are rushing towards us quickly..." A captain with the rank of major on his shoulders and covered with scars reported in horror.
"They are attacking us. Didn't the Chinese artillery fire just start? Aren't they afraid of hurting their own people..." Lieutenant General Sakata reacted and asked in silence.
Because, at this moment, except for his division headquarters, which suffered a round of rocket fire, it never received any other artillery fire. Behind him, the entire East China Field Army assembled several artillery units.
The regiment still spared no effort to launch artillery attacks...
However, just as he finished speaking, the puzzled Lieutenant General Sakata reacted sideways. Then, he shouted with a look of horror: "Baga, the Chinese are so cunning, they want to destroy us.
command organ."
"Quickly, order the division's guard brigade, the 189th Infantry Regiment, to counterattack immediately. No matter what, we must block the Chinese attack..."
However, just as his order was issued, before the Major Captain in front of him had time to reply, a series of intensive machine gun fires reached his ears. Following closely behind him, the Major Staff Captain standing in front of him,
He was shot several times and fell into a pool of blood covered in blood.
"Baga, where is the guard brigade? Counterattack immediately. Quick, counterattack..." Under the protection of the guards around him, Lieutenant General Sakata once again escaped the hail of bullets. When did he become so embarrassed? He looked so angry.
Before he could get up from the ground, he roared loudly at the surviving subordinates around him.
However, at this moment, there was no sound to answer him except for the intensive sound of machine gun fire and the rumbling explosion of artillery shells not far away.
Because, his guard brigade, including an infantry regiment, had a strength of 4,000. After a round of firing by the rocket artillery regiment, most of it was lost, leaving less than one brigade to continue fighting.
However, what Lieutenant General Sakata did not expect was that an infantry brigade evenly dispersed along a kilometer of road, for which he had high hopes, faced a fierce attack by more than 2,000 soldiers of the 137th Regiment and dozens of crooked soldiers.
Not even a round of attacks were blocked, and in the dense rain of bullets, he fell into a pool of blood along with his companions.
There was no trace of the Japanese army as an organized unit, and the Japanese stragglers wandering on the road could not be the opponents of the 137th Regiment. In less than a few minutes, more than 2,000 tiger soldiers of the 137th Regiment rushed onto the road and began to clean up the remaining enemies.
Of course, lying on the ground, Lieutenant General Sakata, who had not yet figured out the specific reason in a short period of time, had not had time to find his own knife and committed suicide. He was punched and kicked by several soldiers and was trapped by the rope.
He rose up and became the first lieutenant general division commander in the entire Central China Front Army to be captured...
