Chapter 238 Mo Bu Gong, Republic of China Version

When the front battlefield was in full swing, a fully staffed tank squadron and infantry battalion broke through the defense line of the 129th Division.

To be precise, these devils did not break through the defense line by strength, but simply ran fast.

The task that Okamura Ningji gave to the 41st Division was to go south to Shaoyuan, and directly occupy all the ferry crossings on the north bank of the Yellow River after resting, completely cutting off the connection between the defenders on both sides.

This tank squadron and infantry battalion were the vanguard of this attack, responsible for paving the way for the entire division.

After the battle started, the fierce battle created by countless artillery shells, planes and loud charge horns directly frightened the two devil lieutenant colonels.

Facing the surging sea of ​​people, with their limited force, they would not be able to splash a little water even if they were put into the battlefield. Rather than die in vain, it is better to attack in the opposite direction to preserve themselves and find another way out.

As soon as this view came out, the two like-minded people hit it off and ran away immediately.

How could the subordinates resist when the superior took the lead in running away. The Japanese infantrymen got on trucks if they could, and squeezed on tanks if there was no space on the trucks, trying to keep up with the main force on the escape route.

Fortunately, the average height of the soldiers was 1.5 meters, otherwise they really couldn't do the Indian-level operation.

Under the stimulation of everyone's strong desire to survive, the two troops were forcibly merged into one, becoming a motorized unit.

"Mr. Nakazato, where should we go? Judging from the current situation, the entire Central Plains Battle will definitely end in failure. At this stage, we can only protect ourselves."

"Or we can head to the west line and see if we can break through the east line and join the 21st Division and the 35th Division."

Nakazato Masatake's suggestion seems good, but there is a fatal flaw.

At present, the entire army is short of supplies. If they don't reach the destination as quickly as possible along the highway, the problem of food and fuel alone can make them lose their combat effectiveness.

What's more, there is the First Air Division in the sky. Once exposed to the enemy's vision, the entire tank squadron will become Fang Ziyi's record.

After thinking for a moment, Yuki Kensuke shook his head. With his strategic level, he couldn't think of any better way for a while.

"No matter what, let's stay away from the battlefield first."

"The two lieutenant generals are buying time for us with their lives. You and I can't let them down."

"But our luck is really good. We didn't encounter any enemies along the way, and even those damn air forces didn't show up in groups."

I can only say that these little devils are really naive. They can escape not because of good luck or negligence of our army. The current gap is specially left for the enemy's small mobile forces.

Encircle three and leave one, the classic will never go out of style. What's more, the front is the position responsible for the 386th Brigade, and the defenders there are three basic regiments headed by Kong Jie.

A tank squadron plus an infantry battalion dare to force their way in. The defense master will teach them a lesson.

······

The perspective switches to the position of the independent regiment of the 386th Brigade.

"Captain, why can't our regiment attack with the brigade?"

"That's a big scene with tens of thousands of people. We soldiers may not have many chances in our lifetime. If we miss this Zhongtiaoshan battle, we don't know if we will have the life to wait until the next time."

Hearing the complaints of his own battalion commander, Kong Jie put down the engineer shovel in his hand and pretended to hit someone.

Who doesn't want to join in the fun of the big scene? However, all his skills and characteristics are added to the defense, and the role he can play on the front battlefield is limited.

What's more, the entire division has dispatched eight brigades, and the width of the battlefield is not enough.

If he continues to develop like this, if he can't realize that the strongest defense is offense, sooner or later he will become the Republic of China version of Mo Bugong Model, and perhaps guarding the border in the Northeast will be his final destination.

After sighing silently in his heart, Kong Jie picked up the tools on the ground and comforted the battalion commander while building the position:

"Okay, stop complaining. Dig a few more shovels when you have time. The enemy's attack can save your life later."

"This is the only way to Shaoyuan. There is a high probability that you can hide in the enemy's armored forces. Killing a few more tanks is more fun than fighting infantry."

"I moved the secret weapons out of the warehouse! Work harder! It will be finished soon!"

Although the independent regiment was also equipped with French weapons, it lacked heavy weapons that could make the final decision.

In order to successfully complete the blocking mission, Kong Jie brought out an SA34 anti-tank gun. Combined with 40 fire, a tank squadron can't expect to take any advantage of them.

Considering the casualties, he specially asked the soldiers to build a very conspicuous fake fortification on the position to attract firepower.

Even Lao Kong personally instructed the engineers in the regiment to build tentacles fortifications, just to discover the enemy's movements first.

Just in case, he also hid a company of soldiers in the dense forest behind the mountain as a mobile force and reserve force, which almost fully demonstrated the skills of a defender.

Once the firefight with the enemy, the independent regiment cooperated with the basic regiments on both sides to attack the enemy from three directions at the same time.

Five minutes later, the Japanese with 17 Type 95 light tanks as the vanguard discovered the Eighth Route Army position on the top of the mountain.

This move is an open conspiracy. If you don't take the initiative to attack, you will be hit low from high. Even if you rely on the mobility of motorized troops and rush out of the encirclement under the rain of bullets, you will have to lose a layer of skin first.

If you take the initiative to attack, you will hit high from low, and the best outcome is just a loss to both sides.

After a brief discussion, Kensuke Yuki and Masatake Nakazato could only bite the bullet and take the initiative to fight. Seventeen Type 95 light tanks immediately split up, and the infantry quickly got off the vehicles and followed closely to start the infantry-tank coordination.

Seven of them were used by Kensuke Yuki to attack the position of the independent regiment, and the remaining crews attacked the other two core regiments respectively.

Because the fake works on the position were too conspicuous, it became the focus of the Japanese attack.

The 37mm tank guns of the seven Type 95 light tanks fired grenades in succession, blasting the position of the independent regiment into dust and rubble. The silky attack boosted the morale of the Japanese infantry for a while.

"Captain, you are really amazing."

"Just a few hundred broken stones can trick the Japanese into so many artillery shells. You will see in a while! Our battalion will definitely give the enemy a blow!"

When the Type 95 light tanks turned the turrets, Kong Jie led the soldiers to disperse and hide, leaving only a few soldiers on the position to monitor the enemy.

"Stop talking nonsense and get ready for battle. Once the artillery stops, the enemy will come up."

After thinking that they had suppressed the Eighth Route Army on the hill, the Japanese infantry began to press forward. Under the cover of tanks, they began to assault and walked step by step towards the position of the independent regiment.

Waiting for the enemy was a minefield.

The left side of Kong Jiexuan's position was a dense forest, and the right side was relatively open. Nakazato Masajo suddenly decided to attack from behind, so he sent dozens of infantrymen to sneak up.

As a master of defense, it is naturally impossible to make low-level mistakes. Of course, there are traps everywhere, and if the enemy dares to come, it is basically to die. Looking at the Japanese approaching step by step, the soldiers all showed excited expressions.

When the distance reached 70 meters, the sound of the Hotchkiss heavy machine gun resounded over the battlefield.

With the defensive grenades and 50 mortars, dozens of Japanese fell on the way to charge without a fart.

Unfortunately, due to the limitation of carrying capacity, the independent regiment did not carry enough mines in this battle, otherwise even the bullets of the heavy machine gun would not be used.

A little trick directly thwarted the enemy's offensive intention.

The Japanese soldiers in the front were not in a good situation either. They did not expect that there were mines buried on the mountain.

The moment the first infantryman stepped on the mine, Nakazato Masaharu suddenly felt that something was wrong. But at this time, the position of the troops was neither up nor down, and it was almost a dead end whether to retreat or charge.

Retreat, expose your back and die unclearly. Charge, step on the mine and face the bullet and die meaninglessly.

Soon, the grassroots officers made a choice for him very considerately.

"It's a black card! Onboard!"

Hearing the familiar slogan, the Japanese infantry rushed into the poisonous explosive insect swarm "bravely" like the speed dogs in the interstellar. With the explosion of mines and the cries of soldiers, they finally passed through the minefield.

But at this moment, two Hotchkiss tentacles stretched out from the tentacles behind them.

Heavy machine guns hit infantry, and they were completely defenseless. Only Showa Superman could survive. Combined with the firepower of the front position, more than half of the Japanese soldiers were killed or wounded before they could even fire.

Seeing that the situation was very favorable, the mobile force also launched an assault.

After a series of tricks, hundreds of enemies were beaten back step by step, and it was only a matter of time before they were completely annihilated.

In order to cover the infantry, Yuki Kensuke could only order seven Type 95 light tanks to fire again. The power of the tank gun temporarily suppressed the firepower of the independent regiment, and the surviving Japanese soldiers began to retreat in an orderly manner.

However, Kong Jie showed his fangs again.

While all the enemy's attention was on the front position, the anti-tank team that was hidden in advance appeared.

The first to attack was the SA34 anti-tank gun, which had pneumatic tires, and a gun group could tow the gun for a short distance.

Because the enemy's tanks faced the high ground, the relatively weak armored flanks were exposed, and the soldiers were less than 700 meters away from those tanks.

"Bang!"

The first 25×109mm shell flew out from an inconspicuous bush somewhere.

After nearly half a year of training, the gunners' proficiency is no longer what it used to be.

This long-planned armor-piercing shell hit the ammunition rack without hesitation, and the Type 95 light tank directly blew up a no-man's land in the infantry group.

It was obvious that everyone was taught by the chief artillery of the brigade. After the hit, everyone whispered: "Yeah! Hair loss!"

The low shape of the SA34, combined with the special muzzle flash suppressor, makes the gun crew extremely concealed. The soldiers fired five shells before the devils discovered the position of the position.

It's a pity that everything was too late. Without the suppression of the tank's artillery fire, the defenders of the independent regiment began to shoot and cover.

Not only did the anti-tank gun crew push the SA34 away from the battlefield safely, but even the soldiers carrying 40 fire entered the effective range.

Taking advantage of the wreckage of the Japanese tank, one armor-piercing shell after another hit the remaining Type 95 light tanks. The situation on the battlefield was extremely clear, and victory would soon belong to the independent regiment.

Looking at the Eighth Route Army that took the initiative to leave the position and was vaguely about to be surrounded. Yuki Kensuke and Nakazato Masaharu were full of fear in their eyes, and they knew that their death was approaching.

"What a bitter failure, Nakazato-kun."

"Our mission failed, the tank was destroyed, but we can't evacuate as a whole."

As soon as the voice fell, the only remaining enemy launched a pig-like attack under the leadership of two lieutenant colonels.

Although they were determined to die, the two still chose the most reasonable way to fight. The infantry changed the central breakthrough to a two-wing attack, trying to disperse the firepower of the Eighth Route Army and create an opportunity to escape.

It's a pity that the friendly forces on both sides of the independent regiment had already ended the battle, and all the devils were successfully killed with the tacit reinforcement.

I will edit it after waking up, good night
