Chapter 241: Eliminate the Devil's Logistics!
Da, da, da......"
"Tom, tom, tom......"
Gradually, the gunfire in the devil's logistics camp fell silent.
The devils on the battlefield died and wounded, and the remaining little devils fled in a panic.
The battle situation on the side of the cavalry battalion was similar, the little devil troops were killed and killed by the cavalry, and the remnants of the devil abandoned the chariot and fled to the position as if fleeing for their lives.
The little devil was killed so embarrassed, it was really happy.
This lightning raid cut off the logistical supply of the 21st Brigade, killed and wounded more than 1,000 devils, and gave the 21st Brigade of devils a blow to the head.
In this battle, the cavalry battalion and the fourth battalion of the security regiment suffered few casualties, not only that, but the security regiment seized a lot of baggage and materials of little devils, as well as armored vehicles and tanks.
Li Hong saw the 4th Battalion and the Cavalry Battalion retreating from the enemy, and his eyes turned to the camp of the 43rd Wing of the 21st Brigade of the Devil in the distance.
The 43rd Devil Wing received an order from the brigade commander Toshiji Miura, and more than 1,000 little devils were carrying anti-tank weapons and flat-fire guns and were hurrying over to reinforce the logistics camp.
To fight a war is to fight logistics, and the strength of a unit's combat effectiveness is inseparable from logistics.
The devil's logistics supply camp was wiped out by the security group, and of course the little devil will not give up, and the enemy will recapture the supplies at all costs.
"Signal troops, immediately notify the fourth battalion, the cavalry battalion has stopped attacking, and the little devil reinforcements have come up." Li Hong continued to say to the signal soldier next to him: "Then order the cavalry battalion to move closer to the fourth battalion, seize a favorable position, build fortifications, and resist the devil reinforcements." β
"Also, send a telegram to the 1st and 5th Battalions, the vanguard and the little devils have exchanged fire, urging them to march quickly and assemble with us."
"Yes, Tuanza!"
The communications soldier saluted and turned to convey Li Hong's order.
Ten minutes later, the cavalry battalion and the fourth battalion received an order to stop the offensive and expand the gains.
The cavalry battalion didn't even have time to clean up the battlefield, so they rode their horses and quickly approached the position of the fourth battalion.
The cavalry dismounted and relied on the favorable terrain around them to dig trenches and build fire fortifications.
All the soldiers of the cavalry battalion are equipped with submachine guns, and they are infantry killers who rush all the way on their horses, even if they dismount and act as infantry, their combat effectiveness is not worse than that of other battalions.
The four battalions turned off their searchlights, and the armourers drove behind a col and hid all the tanks and armoured vehicles.
The soldiers of the fourth battalion seized the devil's logistics camp and built and strengthened the devil's original bunker fortifications, while the other part of the soldiers were carrying the devil's supplies box by box.
β¦β¦
Lu Liangcheng, the headquarters of the 22nd Division of the Central Army.
The headquarters of the 22nd Division was set up in the central street of the city, in the courtyard of a large family with a blue brick house.
There were two horse lanterns hanging in the headquarters, a long table was set up in the inner courtyard, on which were placed military maps and magnifying glasses and other map tools, and the sound of telegrams was "dripping" incessantly.
Chen Changjie, commander of the 22nd Division, paced back and forth in the courtyard of the headquarters, smoking a cigarette in his mouth, and his expression looked a little tired and anxious.
Since the Japanese army increased its troops to attack Luliang, Chen Changjie has not closed his eyes much in the past few days, and his eyes are bloodshot.
More than an hour ago, he finally managed to fall asleep and slept for more than ten minutes, when suddenly, a burst of gunfire sounded more than ten kilometers away and woke him up again.
He still didn't know that Li Hong's vanguard had reinforced LΓΌ Liang, because the war zone had not notified Chen Changjie in advance.
In fact, Li Hong changed his battle plan before reinforcing Lu Liang, and the security regiment was originally responsible for blocking the attack halfway, but now he has become an attack on the little devils.
That's right, it's an attack on the little devils!
Originally, Li Hong's battle plan was to march to Nanji Town in the southeast, and first defeat the 113th Wing of the devil to solve the crisis of the 22nd Division being attacked on both sides, but he did not expect to run headlong into the logistics and armored units of the 21st Brigade of the devil.
Li Hong has never been a good bird who sticks to the rules, such a good fighter is in front of him, and it is impossible for him to let go of the devil's logistics troops.
As soon as the logistics units of the 21 brigade are defeated, the combat effectiveness of the little devils will be greatly affected, because without logistical support, the enemy's combat effectiveness will definitely become weaker and weaker.
To put it simply, the devil's guns and ammunition will be one less shot, and the individual soldier's rations will be one less meal, and there will be no more supplies, unless the little devil sends the air force to airdrop supplies.
A few minutes later, the communications corps received a call back.
"Master, there's news!"
The communications soldier put down the headset, hurriedly stood up, and handed the telegram to Chen Changjie.
Chen Changjie took the telegram from the signal soldier, and after reading the contents of the telegram, he suddenly burst out laughing.
"It's finally here, our 22nd Division can get rid of the dilemma of being besieged on both sides by little devils, okay, okay, okay!"
Chen Changjie's face was excited, and he sighed repeatedly.
Chief of Staff Wang Zhao seemed to have guessed something when he saw Chen Changjie so happy.
"Master, you are so happy, is it that our reinforcements have arrived?"
"See for yourself." Chen Changjie handed the telegram to Wang Zhao.
Wang Zhao glanced at the telegram, his face could not hide his excitement, and he looked a little surprised.
"Shizuo, it's really good, I really didn't expect it, this security regiment marched nearly 300 kilometers overnight to reinforce it!"
Chen Changjie sat down calmly and said with emotion: "This Li Hong, in the end, he used to be my subordinate, he guarded Zhuang County, I reinforced one of his battalions, this will, he will come to reinforce our 22nd Division with his head." β
Chen Changjie and Wang Zhao both knew the combat effectiveness of the security regiment, and the thousands of troops he had reinforced were simply stronger than the combat effectiveness of a division.
"Division, do you want to tell the troops below the news of the reinforcements?"
After listening to the words of the chief of staff, Chen Changjie nodded and said: "Communication soldiers, immediately convey the news of the reinforcement of the security regiment to the various departments defending the city, and improve morale." β
At this time, there was a sudden burst of gunfire outside the city, and the security corps troops outside the city and the little devils exchanged fire again.
"Let's go, let's go up to the city tower and have a look!"
Chen Changjie took the chief of staff and other officers out of the headquarters, and they rushed to the direction of the city tower.
At this time, the reinforcements of the devils outside the city exchanged fire with the four battalions and the cavalry battalion.
"Boom, boom, boom!"
"Da, da, da!"
"Suddenly, suddenly, suddenly!"
Bullets and shells mixed with the line of fire flew sideways over the positions of both sides.
Before the little devil's reinforcements arrived, the fourth battalion and the cavalry battalion had already built bunker fortifications.
"Machine gun suppression, artillery suppression!"
"Duck and chicken give !!"
More than a thousand little devils, under the cover of machine guns and artillery, rushed to the logistics camp in general.
It wasn't yet dawn, and the little devil's artillery was completely bombarded.
More than 20 chariots of the 4th Battalion shelled the attacking imps in unison, and more than 50 light and heavy machine guns opened fire on the enemy.
