Things in the world are like this, the more you fear something, the more it will come.
After being attacked by a super roadside bomb, and after losing generals and senior officers such as Hamura Shuichi, Suzuki Juzo, and Fujiki Naoto, the Japanese army actually lost its command and immediately fell into chaos. At this time, what the Japanese feared most was to be attacked by a squadron.
, However, the squadron appeared at this moment.
The appearance of the squadron was very sudden. The smoke of the explosion had not yet cleared. The Japanese troops of each unit were quickly launching field rescues under the leadership of their respective commanders. However, at this moment, sudden gunshots came from the right side of the road.
There was a sound in the dense forest, and soon after, several Japanese soldiers closest to the woods fell down.
"China soldiers!"
"There are Chinese soldiers!"
"Give me some silk!"
"Give me some silk!"
Dozens of Japanese soldiers closest to the woods spontaneously fell to the ground, raised their guns and fired.
Unfortunately, they couldn't see the enemy in the woods at all. The thick shade of trees and grass well obscured the Chinese's muzzle flashes, making it impossible for them to judge the Chinese's position, so they could only fire randomly.
, but the killing effect of such random shooting is difficult to guarantee.
On the other hand, the Chinese shooting is frighteningly accurate.
Almost every bullet fired by the Chinese can kill a Japanese soldier!
Seeing his soldiers falling into a pool of blood one by one, the Japanese squad leader finally became angry. He immediately raised his saber and pressed forward, giving the order to attack. After receiving the order, more than thirty Japanese soldiers immediately rolled over from the ground.
He climbed up and rushed forward with a shining bayonet. In less than a moment, he had already penetrated deep into the woods.
However, what awaited these thirty-odd Japs was a brutal massacre!
More than thirty Japanese soldiers were like sheep surrounded by wolves. In less than half a minute, they were all killed on the spot by the members of the Langya Squadron.
After eating half of the team of Japs, Xu Rui led the sniper team into the pre-selected sniper position and continued to provoke the Japs with precise shooting skills. After killing more than a dozen Japs in a row, he finally succeeded in angering another Japs.
Squadron leader, that Japanese squadron leader immediately rushed over with about a hundred Japanese soldiers.
Under normal circumstances, the Japanese would never be so blind.
Unfortunately, due to the loss of command, the Little Devils are now in extreme chaos. The various cavalry squadrons of the cavalry regiment and the various infantry squadrons of the motorized infantry brigade are all in a state of independence. Some squadron leaders think that they should immediately
Retreat, while some squadron leaders believe it is time to stand still and wait for reinforcements.
Of course, more Japanese soldiers were busy rescuing the wounded and could not pay attention to sporadic attacks.
Therefore, when the infantry squadron launched the attack, no one stepped forward to stop it, and no one coordinated with it. More than a hundred Japanese soldiers rushed into the woods.
Xu Rui and the Langya team led the Japanese to retreat towards Teapot Ao.
He Shuya, who was heading towards Wanzhong Mountain in the direction of Dawan, heard the gunshots and immediately ordered the officers and soldiers of the second and third battalions to ambush on both sides of the mountain road. In less than a moment, the Langya team led a hundred or so Japanese soldiers in.
After entering the ambush circle, there was no suspense about the outcome. With just a sudden burst of firepower, a hundred or so Japs were basically knocked down.
A little devil caught in a trap is no better than a sheep caught in an Orion's trap.
After wiping out the Japs squadron, Xu Rui immediately ordered the second and third battalions to deploy across the board and launch a surprise attack on the Japanese troops on the road.
At this time, there is no need to pay attention to any strategies and tactics. There is only one word, rush!
If it had been anyone else, he might not have dared to issue such an order, because although the Japanese were attacked and lost their senior officers and effective command, they still had more than a thousand people. They were at an advantage in terms of both military strength and firepower, and the independent
The regiment only had two infantry battalions and half a cavalry battalion, and they had just finished a fierce battle.
But Xu Rui dared. Although the independent regiment was short of men and horses, its soldiers were high-spirited.
On the other hand, the Japs, although they were outnumbered and well-equipped, were already discouraged from fighting!
Amid this ebb and flow, if the independent group still cannot win today's battle, Xu Rui might as well stop messing around.
Xu Rui gave an order, and more than 800 officers and soldiers from the 2nd and 3rd Battalions, as well as more than 100 cavalrymen from the Cavalry Battalion, launched a general attack on the Japanese army.
The tactical literacy of the little Japanese is indeed good, especially the Japanese soldiers in the first two years of the Anti-Japanese War. Their combat effectiveness is very strong. However, once they lose effective command, no matter how strong a lion is, they will immediately turn into a sheep. There is an allusion to this in history.
The story of "Feng Sheng He Jing" is a classic example of an army losing effective command.
After being attacked, all Japanese troops immediately became a mess. Some Japanese troops resisted spontaneously, some Japanese troops began to retreat hastily, and some Japanese troops completely lost their minds and even launched a fierce counterattack against the independent regiment. However,
, but the result was extremely tragic. In front of the rapid machine gun firepower of the independent regiment, the Japanese were quickly defeated.
If an army is compared to a person, then his commander is the brain, and his command system is the nervous system of the army. The current Japanese army is not only brain-dead, but the entire nervous system is almost paralyzed. This situation
No matter how strong a person's body is, he can only produce eggs.
The Japanese army only resisted for a few minutes and were immediately defeated.
What followed was a complete pursuit and annihilation battle. The Japanese troops were defeated like panicked sheep fleeing in front, while the officers and soldiers of the independent regiment were chasing behind like ferocious and bloodthirsty wolves. Japanese soldiers were constantly shot and felled along the way.
If they fall, or are left alone and caught up, the entire escape group of Japanese soldiers will shrink sharply, from the initial number of more than a thousand people to four or five hundred people.
When they met the 1st Infantry Battalion of the 101st Infantry Regiment led by Akio Yoshino on the way, there were less than 300 Japanese soldiers who had fled. The remaining Japanese soldiers had either been killed or escaped halfway.
After the attack, Yoshino Akio immediately ordered the troops to deploy on the spot and prepare for defense.
Yoshino Akio was cautious in character. He learned from the defeated troops that Shuichi Hamura had been shattered, and that the main force of the motorized infantry brigade and the main force of the cavalry regiment rushing to support Teapot Pass had also been severely damaged. He decisively gave up the idea of ​​continuing to advance and took his infantry brigade with him.
Four squadrons and more than 300 broken troops took turns covering and retreated one by one.
Yoshino Akio believes that the current enemy situation is unclear, and continuing to rush to the aid of Teapot Au is very likely to cause greater losses. The wisest solution for now is to withdraw to the station and wait for direct guidance from the front army headquarters. After all, the company commander Shuichi Hamura is now
The jade has been shattered, and it is difficult to continue this battle.
Seeing the Japanese retreating in an orderly manner, Xu Rui also gave up the pursuit.
Although the morale of the Independent Regiment was very high at this time, while the morale of the Japanese was low, the officers and soldiers of the Independent Regiment had already experienced two fierce battles in a row. Both physical strength and energy were close to the limit. If they continued to attack at this time, they would be
The final victory can only be a miserable victory. Such a result is definitely not what Xu Rui wants.
Xu Rui immediately left a platoon behind to serve as a guard, in case the little Japs might try to counterattack.
Then, Xu Rui returned to Dawan with the second battalion, third battalion and cavalry battalion and began to clean the battlefield overnight.
In Dawan and Teapot Ao, in this series of battles, the Dameishan Independent Regiment achieved a great victory. Although there were losses, especially Tiegang's cavalry battalion, which lost two full cavalry companies, even the battalion commander Tiegang suffered.
He was seriously injured, but the Japs' losses were even more severe, with more than 2,000 casualties alone!
In addition, the Japanese also lost a large amount of technical equipment, including tanks and armored vehicles.
At this moment, Xu Rui stood in front of one of the Type 95 light tanks with full anticipation.
This Type 95 light tank was only overturned with the bottom of the vehicle upside down. The mechanical damage was not serious. Even the tracks were intact. However, the vehicle-mounted machine gun on the back of the turret was hit and the barrel was bent, but it was directly in front of the turret.
The 37mm main gun was intact, but Xu Rui was not concerned about the 37mm tank gun.
What Xu Rui cares about is the sight attached to the on-board machine gun of the Type 95 light tank!
If Xu Rui remembers correctly, the vehicle-mounted machine gun of this tank has a scope.
Xu Rui immediately called over a dozen soldiers, worked together to turn the tank over, then jumped on the vehicle, opened the circular hatch on the top of the turret, and entered the compartment through the narrow hatch. Xu Rui discovered three small bodies.
As for the corpses of the Japanese, these three Japanese had no obvious injuries, but there were many blood spots on their faces and necks.
From these blood spots, Xu Rui knew that these three Japanese were killed by the sound wave.
Moving away the driver who was lying on the driving platform, Xu Rui suddenly had a whim and tried to start the tank.
The result surprised Xu Rui. The tank engine roared violently at first, then turned to a low roar, and then started to run continuously. The power unit of this Type 95 tank was actually intact!
The sudden engine roar startled the officers and soldiers of the independent regiment who were cleaning the battlefield.
Without even thinking about it, an idiot immediately took a grenade and tried to stuff it into the observation hole.
Xu Rui quickly pushed open the observation hole cover and yelled at the idiot: "Stop, you want to blow me up?"
The idiot was immediately stunned, forgetting that he was still holding a melon grenade with the fuse in his hand.
Leng Tiefeng, who was standing next to him, reacted quickly. He grabbed the grenade from the two idiots and threw it into the pit. Then he dragged the two Japanese corpses and pressed them on top of the grenade. There was only a bang, and the grenade exploded, killing the two Japanese.
The corpse was blown to pieces, but the idiot was not seriously injured at all. He was just frightened.
Leng Tiefeng lay down on the turret and said to Xu Rui from the open hatch: "Okay, Lao Xu, you can actually drive a tank. Hurry up and drive it twice to show everyone."
"Okay, please sit down."
After Xu Rui finished speaking, he pushed the joystick lightly, and a stream of black smoke spewed out from the exhaust pipe at the rear of the tank, then crawled forward along the bumpy road.
