Chapter 214: All-Out War! Ambush successful!
After listening to Kenji Dohihara's words, Ryosuke Isoya analyzed with a gloomy face: "Dohihara-kun, if my expectations are correct, with the landing of the 114th Division of the Imperial Japanese Army from Haizhou Bay and the launch of an attack on Xuzhou along the Longhai Railway Line, the entire Fifth War Zone of China will be in chaos because of this!"
According to reliable intelligence, the defenders of China in Xuzhou are only one army.
With this amount of troops, it is almost impossible to resist the attack of a division of our Imperial Japanese Army!
Even a brigade and a wing may defeat it and take Xuzhou lightly!
The Chinese side must also know this!
Perhaps, at this time, the defenders of Taierzhuang had received an order to return to Xuzhou.
The sudden attack on us at this time is just a cover for their retreat! ”
After a pause, Ryosuke Isoya seemed to think of something, and continued: "And at that time in Teng County, this sinister and cunning Yang Jing had used this trick to break through from Teng County and retreat to this damn Taierzhuang!"
Otherwise, the Tiger Ben Regiment would have been annihilated by us in Teng County long ago!
Therefore, I think that at this time, we should take the initiative to attack and hold off the defenders of Taierzhuang, which can be regarded as providing fire support for the attack of the 114th Division.
At that time, the 114th Division captured Xuzhou, and you and I can be regarded as having made a war achievement!
Moreover, His Excellency the Commander also ordered to hold back the defending enemy of Taierzhuang at all costs!
If this damn Yang Jing is allowed to retreat to Xuzhou smoothly, this surprise attack of the 114th Division will be destroyed!
Then we have become sinners of the Empire! ”
"Besides, even if we don't get the fire support of the aviation unit now, with the strength of your and my two Imperial Division A divisions, isn't it enough to deal with the enemy army in Taierzhuang?
Yesterday, it was only with the help of terrain fortifications that the Chinese army resisted the attacks of our army again and again!
Today, these damned defenders of China dare to take the initiative to abandon the fortifications and favorable terrain, then we can just teach them a bloody lesson!
Let him learn how powerful the Japanese Imperial Army is!
We can't just watch the 114th Division take all the battle exploits and we are indifferent, right? ”
Yang Jing used a plan to evacuate from Teng County, and Kenji Dohihara also knew something, so after a little thought, he agreed to Isoya Ryosuke's plan: "Since this is the case, then Isoya-kun, you can give a combat order!" ”
However, at this moment, a communications staff officer suddenly ran out of the confidential room next to him and reported the emergency situation in Tengxian County at the fastest speed.
"Nani? Teng County under attack? When Ryosuke Guya got the news, he couldn't help but be taken aback.
"Hello!" The communications staff officer who came to report nodded and said: "Your Excellency General, according to the reports of the 10th Wing and the 14th Wing of the Baggage, the Zhina Army attacking Teng County has tens of thousands of people, and it is well-equipped and well-trained, and it is definitely the elite unit of the Zhina Army!" ”
"Isoya-kun, the situation may have been a little unexpected! The defenders of Taierzhuang are not going to take the opportunity to evacuate, or they are going to gather us here! ”
Kenji Tuhihara thought of something fiercely, and analyzed with a broken face: "The Chinese army attacked Teng County with the elite main force, and its strategic intention is also very obvious, that is, to recapture Teng County and cut off our way to retreat north!"
The most important thing is that if Tengxian is recaptured by the Chinese army, our contact with the other main forces of the front army will also be cut off!
It is equivalent to saying that our two divisions have been surrounded by the Chinese army! ”
"Yaga Tooth Road! Cunning Shina people! Ryosuke said angrily: "Tufei Yuanjun, this vicious plan must have been thought up by that damn Yang Jing!"
Only this guy has the guts to dare to encircle and annihilate our two imperial army divisions!
Order the 10th Cavalry Wing and the 14th Cavalry Wing to immediately form a rescue corps and rush back to Teng County!
To ensure the safety of the Imperial Army's baggage troops and field hospitals!
And defend Teng County! ”
Kenji Dohihara is a little conservative compared to Ryosuke Isoya's radicalism, he frowned, and said with some concern: "Isoya-kun, Yang Jing is cunning!"
Since he dared to take the initiative to attack, he must have been prepared, and according to the intelligence from the special high school, the 20th Group Army of the Chinese Army is converging in the area of Taierzhuang, and it is very likely that it is coming at us!
Now we don't know how many troops there are in our rear, for the sake of safety, why don't we go to Tengxian first, stabilize our position and then make other plans? ”
As a radical, Ryosuke Shitani shook his head and said, "No, we can't turn in!"
It is true that we can be safe and sound when we turn in now.
But have you thought about it, why didn't the Chinese army attack sooner or later, but when the 114th Division of the Imperial Army attacked Lianyungang and advanced to Xuzhou, it suddenly launched an attack on us?
If what I expected was right, Yang Jing must have wanted to scare us off with a powerful offensive, and then he would wave his army back to Xuzhou to meet the 114th Division of the Imperial Army!
Once this happens, then the 114th Division of the Imperial Army will be in danger!
It doesn't matter if the 114th Division loses the battle, but it will affect the results of the entire Battle of Xuzhou.
Therefore, not only can we not retreat, but we must continue to attack Taierzhuang, drag the enemy in front of us to the death, and do not give him a chance to return to Xuzhou!
As long as the 114th Division defeats Liu Ziliang's headquarters of the Chinese Army, successfully captures Xuzhou, and then turns the guns into Taierzhuang!
At that time, it will be the death period of Yang Jing and all the defenders of Taierzhuang! ”
Tufei Yuan Kenji still insisted on his opinion with some concern: "However, since the Zhina army dares to attack Teng County in a roundabout way, it must be prepared!"
With the combat effectiveness of the 10th Cavalry Wing and the 14th Cavalry Wing of the Imperial Army, I am afraid that they will not be able to hold Tengxian at all!
Even, even the defense line set by the Tengxian Zhina Army could not be broken!
And the baggage supplies of our two departments are basically hoarded in Teng County!
If it falls into the hands of the Chinese army, then we will not be able to continue and face the dilemma of running out of ammunition.
At that point, the situation will be completely dangerous! ”
Ryosuke Takuya seemed to think that what Kenji Dohi said also made sense, so he muttered for a moment and said, "Then send another infantry wing back to Teng County!"
In addition, send a telegram to His Excellency the Commander, asking him to mobilize Suzuki Shigeyasu's garrison into the 11th Brigade and immediately rush to the aid of Teng County!
With a mixed brigade, plus a field infantry wing, and two cavalry wings behind us, we can attack Taierzhuang with confidence! ”
"It's a good idea." Kenji Dohi nodded in agreement.
Since the four field infantry wings of the 10th Division were basically disabled, Kenji Dohihara sent the 27th Brigade under his command, and the 2nd Infantry Wing returned to Tengxian with military trucks and two cavalry wings!
…………
The killing of napalm is almost incomprehensible!
Just a few waves of rapid fire inflicted a large number of casualties on the Japanese troops on the forward positions.
In addition, the psychological fear caused by napalm to the Japanese army is unprecedented!
So much so that when the artillery battalion began to extend its fire to the rear of the Japanese camp, the devils, who had never seen napalm, suddenly made a mess.
Morale is also extremely low!
The level of morale can largely determine the victory or defeat of a war!
Contrary to the low morale of the Japanese army, the morale of the soldiers of the Tiger Regiment was high, and after the artillery battalion extended the fire of the Japanese camp, they immediately launched a full-scale attack!
Thousands of Tiger Regiments, the troops divided into roads, like a tide, rushed towards the Japanese position.
At that time, it was not dawn!
The Japanese army did not know how many people there were in the attacking force of Taierzhuang, and could only hear the shouts of killing that shook the sky, and the dense sound of gunfire.
Add to that the psychological fear of napalm, this unknown weapon.
After launching a counterattack and being blocked by the strong fire of the Tiger Regiment, they all looked for suitable cover nearby, and the Tiger Regiment's fire was launched.
Gave up the idea of continuing the counter-charge!
However, with the gathering of devils, there are more and more devils on the front line, and the power of napalm is once again revealed.
In order to be able to defeat the Japanese 10th Division and the 14th Division in one fell swoop, Yang Jing took out almost all 1,000 napalm.
"Boom!"
"Boom, boom, boom! ——”
One napalm after another, like broken stones that don't need money, smashed down on the Japanese defensive positions.
As the napalm exploded, the vicinity of the shell landing site suddenly turned into a sea of fire, igniting the surrounding devil soldiers one after another.
"Ahh
"Uhhhh ~”
"Ya Butterfly! Help me, help me! ”
The terrible howl once again resounded through the front line of the entire devil.
When Ryosuke Isoya got the news, he immediately ordered the field artillery to fire back against the artillery battalion of the Tiger Regiment.
It's just that this black light is blinding, and it is impossible to find out the specific coordinates of the artillery battalion and each artillery position of the Tiger Ben Regiment for a while.
It can only carry out a covering bombardment of the area where the army of the Tiger Ben Regiment is located!
"Boom!"
"Boom, boom, boom! ——”
Although the devil's shells were not as effective as napalm, they fell on the position of the Tiger Regiment, and also caused a large number of casualties to the Tiger Regiment.
The battle situation has entered a white-hot situation, and the two armies have launched an unprecedented confrontation in the frontline position, which is extremely tragic for a while!
Almost all the time, he was not hit by a bullet from nowhere, he was blown away by a cannonball falling from the sky, and he was ignited by napalm.
There are soldiers of the Tiger Regiment, but there are more of them little devils!
…………
At the same time as the fierce battle of Taierzhuang was in full swing, General Li Delin was also deploying troops to resist the surprise attack of the Japanese 114th Division and support Taierzhuang!
On the other hand, Terauchi Shouichi, commander-in-chief of the Japanese North China Front Army in Beiping, also received a telegram from Ryosuke Takuya asking for help from Taierzhuang.
Considering the importance of the Battle of Taierzhuang, Shouichi Terauchi hardly hesitated.
He agreed to Ryosuke Isoya's request and sent a telegram to Suzuki Shigeyasuke, ordering him to immediately stop the attack on the Juye area and rush to the aid of Fuji Prefecture!
At this time, the remnants of the 45th Army under the 22nd Group Army, which was mixed with the 11th Brigade of the Japanese garrison, also received a telegram from General Li Delin from Xuzhou.
He was ordered to launch an active attack on the Japanese troops in front of him overnight in order to contain the Japanese troops stationed in Tuntun and mixed into the 11th Brigade.
The bravery of the Sichuan army, that is famous.
Although the equipment is poor, it never slackens when it comes to fighting.
Suzuki Shigeyasu had no choice but to leave an infantry wing and turn to the defensive to resist the 45th Army's desperate crazy counterattack!
He personally led the main force, went east to Jiaxiang, and then went south along the Jinpu Railway to rush to Teng County!
It's just that the 11th Brigade Regiment of his garrison was still more than 150 miles away from Tengxian County at that time, and he didn't just get there in a hurry.
…………
60 miles south of Tengxian County and 30 miles north of Taierzhuang.
Just when General Zheng Guiting led the 2nd Division to Linteng County and was ready to attack, General Sun Fanglu had already led his troops here, and relying on the favorable terrain, he began to set up ambush positions on both sides of the official road.
An hour later, a simple ambush position was set up.
A scout suddenly ran down the hill from a hill in front of him, came to General Sun Fanglu, stood up and saluted, "Report!" ”
Sun Fanglu said suddenly: "Speak! ”
The scout said: "Report to the military seat, the enemy's reinforcements are already less than 5 miles away from us, and they are expected to arrive in about 10 minutes!" ”
"Got it!"
Sun Fanglu's face sank, and he shouted: "Brothers, get ready for battle!" Wait for the little devil to get closer and then fight, without Lao Tzu's order, no one is allowed to fire in advance without authorization, and those who violate the order will be dealt with by military law! ”
As the order was delivered, the officers and men of the 2nd Army, who were lying in ambush on both sides of the official road, and in the fields, checked their weapons and equipment, loaded their bombs, removed the grenades from their waists, unscrewed the back cover, and placed them in the most convenient position in front of them.
It's ready to go!
……
Sure enough, about 10 minutes later, the vanguard of the devils entered the ambush circle of the 2nd Army.
Seeing this, the officers and men of the Northwest Army who were ambushed on both sides of the official road couldn't help but have their hearts racing and became a little nervous.
They subconsciously put their fingers on the trigger, ready to fire at any time.
The vanguard of the devils is the 10th Cavalry Wing under the command of the 10th Division.
At this moment, thousands of devil cavalry galloped all the way, and thousands of horses' hooves trampled on the ground, suddenly setting off a cloud of dust, like a yellow dragon.
These devils only wanted to rush back to Teng County as soon as possible for reinforcements, and they didn't notice the ambushes on both sides of the official road at all.
The 2nd Group Army, with nearly 30,000 troops, relied on the official road to set up ambushes on both sides.
The ambush circle was more than 10 miles long, so the devil cavalry had just entered the ambush circle, and General Sun Fanglu was not in a hurry to order fire.
It was not until the 20th Cavalry Wing of the Japanese Army and the 2nd Infantry Wing that the devil soldiers of the 2nd Infantry Wing also entered the ambush circle one after another, and General Sun Fanglu gave the order to open fire.
"Fire!"
"Beat, hit Lao Tzu hard!"
"Kill these bitch-raised Oriental devils!"
When the order was given, General Sun Fanglu raised the Mauser pistol in his hand violently and took the lead in pulling the trigger.
Only a muffled sound of "pop" was heard, and the bullet flew rapidly for dozens of meters as if it had eyes, and after flying dozens of meters at a rapid pace, it accurately hit a devil officer who was riding a horse in a hurry.
The little devil didn't even have time to scream, and he fell off the horse with his head tilted.
