overwhelming
In the headquarters of the Japanese 63rd Division, the division commander, Lieutenant General Ikeda, issued the military order to annihilate Li Shengda's regiment. With a pair of expectant eyes, accompanied by a group of subordinates, he stood at the lookout and stared at the flames of war.
The turbulent battlefield is looking forward to the arrival of miracles and victory. Because at this moment, the Japanese army, the 63rd Division, which has suffered two consecutive defeats, needs a victory to boost morale.
Time passed by, and I saw the only reserve team in my hand, a total of an infantry regiment, rushing into the battlefield in three directions. It was like three soldiers saw each other, and they fiercely thrust into the East China Field Army.
On both wings and behind. However, the Chinese team, which had been completely immersed in its own strategic depth, still did not notice at all. When it continued to launch a difficult attack, a confident smile rarely appeared on the stiff face of Lieutenant General Ikeda.
face….
"Division Commander, our two infantry regiments have completed the encirclement of the Chinese Army. Should we launch an attack immediately..."
The explosions of several sharp signal bombs sounded on the battlefield, indicating that the three roundabout troops of his had successfully joined forces. The more than 2,000 East China Field Army had been completely reduced to what he called fat meat.
Seeing the excited Chief of Staff next to him, as if the military exploits in front of him were already at his fingertips, Lieutenant General Ikeda ordered with a confident expression.
"Yoshi, Chief of Staff, immediately send a signal to all frontline units. All participating troops should concentrate their firepower and launch an attack immediately. In the shortest possible time, end the battle and wipe out all the squadrons in the encirclement." Lieutenant General Ikeda said with a majestic look.
He said, his words full of confidence in this battle.
"Ha Yi..." the chief of staff said excitedly.
However, the excitement and excitement of the Japanese commanders at all levels seemed to be a little too early. Just after the chief of staff received the order, before he had time to walk out of the headquarters, a series of piercing whistles of artillery shells reached the ears of everyone in the headquarters.
inside.
Facing the whistling sound of artillery shells piercing the air, the Japanese commander who was able to stand here knew without thinking that these artillery shells must have been fired by the squadron. So, at the same time, they all set their sights on
On the battlefield one kilometer away.
"Boom, boom, boom..." As more than a hundred fireballs rose into the sky on the position, the huge explosion sound caused by the explosion of the artillery shells also reached the headquarters in a very timely manner...
"This... Chinese ** team, Chinese ** team is not afraid of accidental damage from artillery shells..." Seeing the situation in front of him, the only artillery staff officer in the command headquarters stared with a pair of eyes and exclaimed in disbelief.
road….
In the eyes of this Japanese artillery staff officer, even the elite Japanese artillerymen did not dare to fire when the two armies were so close without the artillery personnel accurately measuring the artillery data. And the Chinese army in front of them did not dare to fire.
, Even though the equipment of the troops has undergone earth-shaking changes, the cooperative combat capability between infantry and artillery cannot be formed in a short period of time.
What's more important is that in order for more than a hundred artillery pieces to fire artillery shells so accurately at the same time, a large number of artillery scouts and radio equipment must be equipped among the infantry, and they must constantly use the radio to direct the rear artillery to change the bombardment position.
.And is it possible that the Chinese army in front of us has such advanced command tactics...
Obviously, this was an impossible thing for both the artillery staff officer and Lieutenant General Ikeda himself. However, as rounds after rounds of artillery shells exploded on the battlefield, the situation on the battlefield...
When it was slowly revealed in front of everyone, everyone was so shocked that they had to believe it. They had to admit that their old rival, the ** Corps, had no choice in terms of equipment, combat effectiveness, or even various advanced command tactics.
Far beyond his own troops.
"Division Commander, the artillery fire of the Chinese ** Team is so sharp that it has completely separated the enemy and our armies. According to the latest news from the front line, facing the artillery fire of the Chinese ** Team, our troops on the left, right and rear
It is impossible to attack at all. Each unit asked for instructions whether to change the combat order..." The chief of staff, who had just delivered the order, said with an anxious look.
For a time, the atmosphere in the entire headquarters immediately became tense due to the sudden changes on the battlefield.
However, as the saying goes, take advantage of your illness to kill you. Just when the surrounding Japanese troops were at a loss when faced with the artillery fire in front of them, a large group of bombers appeared over the battlefield in a mighty manner.
Before everyone in the headquarters could react from the shock, the twelve bombers, like a pack of wolves asking for the smell of blood, began to drop the bombs in their bellies one after another, directly in front of Li Shengda's regiment.
, the Japanese army was on a position less than 500 meters long and less than 200 meters deep...
"Baga, we have been fooled..." In the blink of an eye, the only infantry brigade blocking the front of the East China Field Army was enveloped in a sea of fire. Lieutenant General Ikeda, a veteran who has been on the battlefield for a long time, reacted from the shock.
.The plan that he thought was perfect played into the hands of the East China Field Army.
However, it seems that it is too late to discover the conspiracy within this conspiracy at this moment.
"Division Commander, what should we do next..." At the same moment, a group of subordinates headed by the Chief of Staff seemed to understand the intention of the squadron. They all cast their eyes on Ikeda in front of them.
Lieutenant General, waiting for the latest order from Lieutenant General Ikeda...
"The imperial soldiers from three directions are unable to attack the Central Army, which means that our premeditated plan is completely in vain. In this case, our 63rd Division has only one strategic goal left, which is to hold on to the position and block the Central Army.
*The pace of the team’s offense.”
"Order to detour to the reserves on the wings and rear of the Chinese ** Corps, retreat immediately, and return to support the 6th Infantry Brigade. No matter what, we must block the next round of offensive by the Chinese ** Corps and convey the order immediately..."
Lieutenant General Ikeda ordered with a murderous look on his face.
"Hayi..."
Lieutenant General Ikeda's order is one thing, but actually executing it is another matter. The three infantry brigades evenly scattered on the battlefield are like scattered beans. If you want to assemble and carry out operations in a short period of time,
Retreating is simply not something that can be accomplished.
Of course, this is only one aspect. There is another very important reason. After receiving Li Shengda's order, Chen Guangrong, commander of the artillery of the East China Field Army, not only promptly dispatched three artillery regiments to cover the troops for the assault. At the same time, he also dispatched
Two treasure-like howitzer regiments continued to pour large-caliber shells weighing tens of kilograms over the heads of the Japanese troops...
Thousands of scattered Japanese troops faced artillery shells everywhere, and it was even more difficult to assemble them than to reach the sky.
"Regiment Commander, air reconnaissance aircraft reported that the Japanese troops on both wings of ours are showing signs of retreat. It is very likely that this Japanese army is preparing to reinforce the Japanese troops in front of us..." the regiment chief of staff reported breathlessly while holding a telegram.
After raising the telescope again, he saw around him that under the constant attack of artillery fire, the Japanese troops were almost invisible. A sneer appeared on Li Shengda's face in an instant.
"Reinforce the Japanese troops at the front, they have no time."
"No time..." Just when the chief of staff had a questioning look on his face.
The group of bombers that had been circling and roaring overhead for almost ten minutes had already dropped their bombs. Amid the cheers of the soldiers on the ground, they waved their wide wings and disappeared over the slag field...
Before the smoke blocking the Japanese position in front of the Second Battalion had dissipated, all the commanders and soldiers of the Second Battalion, who were already ready to go, were like roaring lions, while pulling the triggers of the semi-automatic rifles and submachine guns in their hands.
A dense rain of bullets was fired at the Japanese positions that had been blown to the ground.
While shouting charge slogans, they lined up in the most basic triangle attack formation and launched a desperate charge forward...
"It's over, the 63rd Division is over, the honor I Ikeda spent half my life fighting for on the battlefield is over..." Seeing the sudden attack of the Chinese Army, Lieutenant General Ikeda's face instantly turned pale and trembling.
said to himself.
Of course, some generals still have a glimmer of hope in their hearts regarding Lieutenant General Ikeda's words.
Even if the Chinese Air Force's bombing is very fierce, an infantry brigade with a large number of trenches cannot be killed. An infantry brigade, even if there is only one squadron left, can persist for an hour, no, even half an hour.
Within a short period of time, reinforcements will arrive on the battlefield continuously. By then, the crisis of the entire 63rd Division will be resolved invisibly.
However, these generals obviously underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Kongyi Division, and also underestimated the combat effectiveness of Li Shengda's regiment...
Faced with heavy aerial bombs weighing more than 200 kilograms, even if the Japanese troops had the cover of trenches. Faced with the huge shock wave generated by the bomb explosion, even if these Japanese troops were hiding in deep air-raid shelters, they would be violently shocked... Of course
, if you are lucky, there are still remaining Japanese troops on the Japanese position at this moment. Facing the dense rain of bullets fired by the second battalion, they will have almost no room to fight back except being beaten into a hornet's nest.
Under the horrified gaze of senior officers of the Japanese 63rd Division headquarters, the entire Second Battalion, like an unsheathed sword, quickly thrust into its position. Then, under the cover of intensive firepower
, all the way was unstoppable, and in less than ten minutes, they broke through the two-hundred-meter strategic depth of their position and penetrated their huge defensive position.
As for an infantry brigade that stood firm on the ground, facing the assault of the Chinese ** team, it barely organized even a decent counterattack, and was completely penetrated by the Chinese ** team...
