Chapter 271: Infinite Intersperse
At 3 o'clock in the morning of December 8, the entire 58th Army forcibly crossed the Yuanshui, killed the commander of the Japanese division, Iwa Yongwang, and important commanders of various divisions and regiments, and divided and surrounded the remaining Japanese troops. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info The war is still going on, and the current situation is that if you annihilate the encircled wing, you can force the remaining two wings to retreat, then the next is the small towns and villages on the outskirts of Changde, as long as these places occupied by the Japanese army are recovered, the large army can drive straight into Changde.
Although the casualties of the 58th Army could not be ignored, the Fourth Army also successively projected the strength of a division over, because it was night, the two sides were staggered, and the Japanese fighters could not provide effective support, and most of their own artillery was targeted, so the Japanese artillery fire was not as fierce as before.
What's even more serious is that the command system of the Japanese army has been destroyed, the command has been chaotic, and the previous battle to the death is also a matter of last resort, otherwise I don't know how many officers will have to apologize when they go back.
However, this resistance caused them greater losses, a wing was surrounded by three regiments and nearly a division's superior strength, and the most important thing was that the Japanese army's back defense line was also fiercely attacked.
However, Lu Hai's artillery was not his own, and even their own such blatant bombardment in other people's nests was easy to destroy.
Half an hour after the shelling began, the strength of the two squadrons of the Japanese army quickly attacked this artillery position, fortunately, there were early warning troops before, so they were discovered when the Japanese troops were still more than 500 meters away from them.
Li Fan, who learned of the situation, decisively ordered: "Order, no need to amend, three rapid shots, withdraw after the fight!" ”
"Yes!"
"Demoman, have you got the explosives in the shells?" Mu Yuanliang asked.
"It's ready!"
At this moment, Li Fan ordered again: "Ready, release!" ”
As soon as the words fell, dozens of shells flew out into the darkness in the distance again, followed by the second round, the third round, until the three rounds of shells were finished, Li Fan decisively ordered: "Everyone, retreat quickly!" ”
"Yes!"
After the order was issued, all the units retreated one after another, and Mu Yuanliang's capture team ran more than 100 meters out and ambushed again.
The Japanese troops came up just after doing this, but when these Japanese soldiers finally rushed to the position, there was nothing else on the position except a pile of shell shells and a group of Japanese corpses.
Just when these Japanese soldiers were about to start a formation search, Mu Yuanliang pressed his hand down suddenly, only to hear a huge roar sound violently, and a bundle of explosives exploded in a pile of large-caliber shells.
The huge flames drowned all the living creatures in a range of tens of meters in the sea of fire, even Mu Yuanliang and the others, who were separated by more than 100 meters, only felt that their bodies were violently impacted, and it was conceivable how serious the losses of the Japanese army inside were.
And all this is not over, some shells are followed up to explode, all the explosions have not stopped, and the range is still expanding, these shells flew out like a goddess scattered flowers in the surrounding violent explosion dense and scorching shrapnel almost the entire artillery position shrouded in it, in a short period of time, the loss of the Japanese army directly reached more than 100 people, and some seriously or lightly injured, it can be said that this directly led to the loss of nearly half of the Japanese army's combat effectiveness.
Similarly, as soon as the shelling of the front line ceased, the divisions launched the most intense assaults into the gaps in the range that these shells had blown out. In the face of such an offensive attacking from all sides, the Japanese army's combat effectiveness was tenacious, and the firepower only increased some casualties at this time, but it could not escape the fate of their collective annihilation!
Although Li Juan's 32nd Regiment suffered serious losses, it did not have the slightest intention of retreating, and Li Jian still led the troops to attack on the whole front.
Similarly, the strength of two battalions of Wei Peicang's 29th Regiment also broke through the flank positions of the Japanese army, and the two sides directly engaged in hand-to-hand combat.
The front line was already in chaos, and Lu Hai also resolutely ordered the first battalion and the second battalion to take the lead in the charge, and at the same time Lu Hai ordered: "Order, transfer two companies, including Mu Yuanliang's capture team, to concentrate the light and heavy machine guns of the remaining two battalions to the commanding heights on both sides of the back to ambush, and plant explosives and mines on the road. ”
"Yes!"
After the strength of the two companies of the third battalion was withdrawn, Lu Hai ordered: "The remaining two battalions follow me, once the front line is breached, I want you to go straight to the center of the Japanese position and divide them in half!" ”
"Yes"!
Ten minutes later, under the powerful offensive of Zhao Jianying and Hai Zhizhi, the forward defense line of the Japanese army was also torn apart, and the two sides launched a fierce battle on the hillside.
Lu Hai resolutely ordered: "Everyone get on the bayonet, put on the military flag and rush with me!" ”
Saying that, Lu Hai took the lead in leading people to charge into the crowd of Japanese soldiers, and where he said that, gunshots rang out, bayonets fought, and Lu Hai did not entangle with these Japanese soldiers, but directly interspersed with the depth of the Japanese army!
The Japanese army was already in disarray, and even if there was a defensive line, it was relatively weak, and in such a situation, the resistance of the Japanese army did not get the desired effect, but was gradually broken through by our army, and in such a situation, a reinforced battalion of Lu Hai actually went on a rampage all the way and suddenly hit a huge gap in the crowd of Japanese troops.
Lu Hai raised his gun and aimed for a moment, knocked the Japanese machine gunner on a small high ground to the ground, and waved his hand again: "Rush!" ”
After the order was issued, the various departments rushed again, the so-called narrow road, but Lu Hai's rush directly rushed to the wing headquarters, the so-called command headquarters is just a few military tents, when Lu Hai's forward troops rushed here, suddenly found that the troops here also have a small team. However, the Japanese command still left more than a dozen light and heavy machine guns, and when such a fierce gunfire rang out, several soldiers who rushed to the front were suddenly shot and fell, and everyone was suppressed.
Lu Hai decisively ordered: "Mortar, grenadier fire at me!" ”
After the order was given, more than a dozen mortars behind them began to fire, and the grenadiers in front of the guns had already opened fire, and the Japanese machine-gun positions were also fiercely attacked in the sound of explosions.
In this moment of suppression, the mortar finally opened fire to cover, the power of the 82 mortar was much greater than the grenadier, and the machine gun positions of the Japanese army that fired in the dark night were exposed, and more than half of them were blown up for a while, and at the same time, the second round of shells was fired out again.
"Rush!" Lu Hai shouted, while raising a gun to knock a Japanese soldier to the ground, followed by the various divisions to rush forward, and soon drowned the remaining more than 20 Japanese soldiers in the sea of people, at this time, in the tent in the middle, a Japanese army Dazuo hurriedly ran out, and then everyone opened fire fiercely, and the Japanese army Dazuo, together with a Zhongzuo staff officer and a captain, fell to the ground in the gunfire.
Immediately after that, the soldiers of each department continued to rush forward, and ten minutes later, they had already rushed to the back of the forward position, but seeing that one of Li Juan's regiments was fighting fiercely with the Japanese army, Lu Hai decisively ordered: "Intersperse it, divide the Japanese army, and then cooperate with the 32nd Regiment to annihilate this group of Japanese troops!" ”
"Yes!"
Similarly, Lu Hai was fighting a war of annihilation on their side, but the rest of the troops were fighting a blocking war, and the Japanese army pressed out that the 58th Army wanted to divide and annihilate the strength of one of their wings, and the rest of the troops were also frantically rescuing, so the 33rd Regiment and the 28th Regiment and the 30th Regiment that crossed the river to reinforce also blocked the attacks of the two wings with the strength of one division, especially the position of the 33rd Regiment was the most important, and the two sides fought bloody battles again and again around these hills. On the hillside, the fields are full of corpses, and it can be said that in just one night, all of them have been killed!
Some of the barrels of the machine guns were even scrapped, and a company lost more than half of it in less than a few minutes, but although the Japanese offensive was fierce, this choke point was controlled by the 33rd Regiment, so although the Japanese offensive was fierce, it failed to advance after all!
At this time, Li Jian and the others were engaged in a tragic white-knuckle battle with more than 1,000 Japanese soldiers, bayonet to bayonet, courage to blood!
Just when Li Jian and the others were fighting fiercely with the Japanese army, more than 700 people from Lu Hai, who were disturbing the situation, rushed out of the depth of the Japanese army, cut off the Japanese army's position from it, and then launched reinforcements for Li Juan's 32nd Regiment!
For a while, the troops had already taken the advantage, and the most important thing was the position that Lu Hai rushed out, but behind the ass of the Japanese army, how could the Japanese army not know that the division commander and the brigade commander had just been annihilated, and this time they were even annihilated by the wing commander, and they were the ones who were annihilated if they didn't leave!
The so-called one deserter can pull away ten, ten can pull away a hundred, and a hundred can directly pull away a thousand, and when a few Japanese soldiers fled, the Japanese army that was still fighting to the death just now suddenly collapsed and began to break through to the side!
With the cooperation of Lu Hai, most of the fleeing soldiers of the Japanese army were lost more than half of them by machine gun fire, but it was still difficult for the Japanese army to break through and block it, and the Japanese army broke through the encirclement of Li Jun's three battalions and was greeted by Lu Hai's machine gun after leaving only a few hundred people to flee to the periphery, but Lu Hai did not mean to pursue but ordered: "Order the troops, continue to move closer to the position of the 29th Regiment, and the Japanese army inside must be annihilated!"
