Chapter 339: A Great Victory!
The two armies of Zhang Lingfu and Huang Wei were stopped by Qin Tian before they reached Poyang Lake, and they assigned combat missions to the two generals face-to-face.
The 13th Division arrived at the south shore of Poyang Lake by ships and motorboats, and they found a suitable place for landing.
At this time, it was Zhang Lingfu's 74th Army who ambushed the devils with the Qingtian Army, and when they saw that all the devils were flowing and walking towards the shore, they were very puzzled, how did Qin Tian know that the devils would come ashore from here! Can he really pinch and calculate!
Zhang Lingfu didn't dare to delay Qin Tian's battle plan, and ordered the Qingtian Army to shoot whoever shot would be killed.
After most of the devils went ashore, Qin Tian gave the order to open fire, this time the soldiers of the 74th Army can be regarded as a happy one, their weapons and equipment are no worse than the Qingtian Army.
More than 2,000 devils who went ashore were suddenly ambushed by thousands of people, especially when there was no cover by the lake, hundreds of devils were shot and fell on the lakeside in an instant, and the rest of the devils all ran back if they didn't see it well, but how fast can you run in the lake, and as a result, these devils all became targets.
The ships in the distance found that the landed army was ambushed, so they immediately covered it with artillery fire, but the soldiers of the Optimus Army and the 74th Army did not care at all, and still shot the devils in the lake.
Soon, there were corpses of devils floating on the surface of Poyang Lake, and less than 100 people in a company of more than 3,000 devils escaped back to the boat.
"What do you say! It's the Chinese army! Isn't it the Optimus Army? Anan asked in surprise,
"Definitely not the Optimus Army! It should be the 74th Army of the Chinese Army! They're here! ”
"Yaga! I will immediately send troops to support! Anan didn't call when he heard the anger, he immediately called Takahashi Tagaji and told him that it was the main force of the Chinese army on the south bank of Poyang Lake! Let him immediately go with the army to encircle and suppress! At the same time, he immediately ran the 13th Division and immediately set off to outflank him, and let a part of the army continue to take boats to rush to the beach and land, and strive to destroy the 74th Army.
The Seventy-Fourth Army was happy when they found that the ships that had left had returned, this time several more, and after a while they found that a number of motorboat landing craft had disembarked from the ships.
"Reporter! Chief Qin said that the devil is ready to land on the beach! Let's get ready for battle! Let's not be polite, just beat hard! ”
"Brothers! Don't be embarrassed in front of the Celestial Brothers! Let them also see that our 74th Army is also in good shape! Zhang Lingfu personally shouted with a machine gun,
"Kill!" The officers and men of the 74th Army had just been killed so happily, and at this time the morale had reached its peak!
The two wings of the devils carried out a beach-rushing landing, and all the guns that their ships could fire were opening up cover.
The two armies on the shore continued to shoot the devils in the water with all their strength under the fire of the devils, and the casualties were heavy and could not be withdrawn, because this was an excellent opportunity to eliminate the devils.
Qin Tianping's careful planning is to minimize sacrifices as much as possible, and he will never hesitate to sacrifice when he has to.
"Little God! Qi Rui telegraphed, saying that the land had also discovered an army of devils! It seems to be the 3rd Division! ”
"Tell the Qirui tank not to enter the battle first! Huang Wei's army is behind them, once the war starts, they will immediately outflank the devils from both wings, as long as they kill this wave of devils, they will increase their troops when they find out that it is the national army, and when the time comes, when the number of devil troops increases, our tanks will join the battle again! ”
The devils have ship artillery, mortars on the shore, mountain artillery, grenadiers, and the landing craft of the devils are constantly hit, as long as they are hit by shells, more than ten or twenty devils on a small boat will be killed and injured, and then look at the lake is full of devils who are splashing in the water, and the lake is red with the blood of the devils again.
The 13th Division suffered heavy casualties, but it thought that it was the Chinese Army of the 74th Army on the shore, so it did not stop continuing to seize the beach at all, and then Anan Weiji transferred the 40th Division from elsewhere to reinforce it.
There were also a lot of casualties on Zhang Lingfu's side, and the casualties of the devils made the commander of the 13th Division, Eitaro Uchiyama, feel distressed and wanted to cry, because there were thousands of corpses floating on the lake before, and this time there were corpses on the lake.
The 13th Division had never been so tragic, and they were very strange, because the devil found that the 74th Army seemed to have a lot more combat effectiveness.
"Yaga! Our artillery fire is so fierce! They held on! Uchiyama Eitaro saw that the artillery fire had almost covered the shore, but the fire on the opposite side never seemed to have weakened much.
"If it were me, I would do the same! Because their terrain is so favorable! We're going to lose a lot by grabbing the beach like this! ”
"Yes! They occupy this vantage point! We're at a loss! Do you have to log in from here? ”
"Of course, it's okay to land from other places, but I think the situation should be the same, since Qin Tian can expect us to land from here, he will naturally think of other places, and he will inevitably arrange people, once we appear, I think it will be the same situation! And they make a much faster detour on the shore than we do! ”
"It won't work like this! Tune in some speedboats now! I'm going to send a team to land from the flanks! Uchiyama Eitaro said that his division did not suffer such heavy casualties in several major battles, and this was almost half a loss in half a day!
At this time, the fighters of the Japanese Fourth Flying Group had also arrived over the lake and began to bombard the shore indiscriminately, Qin Tian still did not order a retreat, because at this time it must not be withdrawn, once they withdrew, these devil armies would go around behind Qi Rui and them, so that they would suffer from the enemy on their backs.
Under the cover of the bombers, the devils once again grabbed the beach, and the battle on the lakeside became more and more intense, and they continued to attack the devils who wanted to land, and the shelling of the devils' ships never stopped.
At the same time, Qi Rui's side also exchanged fire with the devils of the third division, Huang Wei heard the gunshots and immediately attacked from the two flanks of the devils in two ways, and this time the 67th Wing of the devils retreated for dozens of miles, and at this time, Takahashi Tagaji and the third division arrived to meet them, and then the entire division moved forward.
Qi Rui learned of the great joy, and immediately ordered the tank squad to prepare, hiding the Shermantek all ready, and when the third division of the army charged, twenty tanks rushed towards the devil in unison, while rushing and firing artillery, the machine gunners on the tank also did not listen to the strafing, behind the tank Qi Rui led the army and Huang Wei's 18th Army also began to charge.
This battle was fierce, because there were twenty tanks in front of the road, and the soldiers of the 18th Army and the Optimus Army were also crushed all the way, and the various attacks of the devils could not cause any damage to the tanks.
"Yaga! When did the Chinese army have tanks! And it seems to be made in the USA! ”
"Division Commander! It's the Celestial Army! Among them is the Optimus Army! ”
"Nani! Optimus Army! Where is it? ”
"Division Commander! The one who drives the tank is the Optimus Army! They just came back from Burma! This is the news that the 33rd Division has just sent! ”
"Optimus Army! Yaga! Fooled again! Takahashi Tagaji heard that his pants were wet.
Knowing that it was too late to be fooled, the devil heard that it was the Qingtian Army that ran faster! Twenty tanks were in hot pursuit behind the Third Division, they were covering all the way, and seeing that they were chasing out for more than ten miles, Qi Rui ordered the army to return to the position.
At this time, the commander of the 40th Division, Naojiro Amaya, rushed to the edge of Poyang Lake with a large army, and saw that the battle was so fierce, so he immediately sent the 234th and 235th Wings to attack the lake shore from the flank.
Qin Tian learned of Qi Rui's victory at this time, so he immediately ordered them to rush over to support the shore of the lake, which was about to be overwhelmed, because the ammunition was almost gone.
Qi Rui immediately led the army to reinforce with Huang Wei's Eighteenth Army, and when they arrived, Zhang Lingfu's Seventy-fourth Army still had more than half of the troops left, and the ammunition was almost gone, and Huang Wei immediately asked the soldiers to give them the rich ammunition.
Qi Rui also immediately distributed the ammunition to the Qingtian Army brothers, and it was another fierce battle here, but because the shore always occupied a strong terrain, Qin Tian and they once again annihilated almost a brigade of the Fourth Division, and after they were repulsed, Qin Tian ordered the whole army to withdraw.
The devils finally landed, but they found that the Chinese army had long disappeared, and they didn't dare to chase after them, because at this time they also got the news that the main force fighting on the opposite side was not only the 74th Army and the 18th Army, but also the Qingtian Army!
After Xue Yue heard about this victory, he immediately set up a celebration banquet on the front line, because this victory was too morale-boosting, especially the two soldiers who participated in the battle were as happy as their new daughter-in-law.
"Brother Qin! Brother, I apologize to you! It was all me bad before! Please also understand my difficulties! ”
"Brother Xue! That's just like how careful I am! If there was no Brother Zhang and Brother Huang this time, I wouldn't dare to make such a big battle this time, at most I would have taken a small advantage and ran away, it was precisely because of the two national army trump cards that we won such a big victory! ”
"Yes! Commander! This time we eliminated at least one division of devils, and it took less than a day! Huang Wei said happily,
"I knew I would have brought some more brothers! If we had enough ammo, we could kill at least one wing of the devils! Zhang Lingfu said with some regret,
"It's already good! Too many people, too dense we will only add more casualties! This time the strength is just right! Qin Tian comforted,
"Brother Qin! What's next for you? Xue Yue asked,
"I want to attack Chizhou directly!"
"Chizhou!? Beat down the brother who can't hold it! Janssen said,
"I know I can't keep it, and I don't want to keep it! The purpose is to use the docks in Chizhou to beat the fleet and supply ships of the devils on the Yangtze River! ”
"That's a good idea! We also mix and mix! Xue Yue tasted the sweetness and asked,
"Brother Xue! Do you really want to mix? ”
"Anyway, the little devil can't have any movement recently, so there's no problem with giving you an army!"
"I'll go!" Huang Wei said first,
"Commander Huang! You better stay in the position honestly, such a battle still depends on our 74th Army! ”
Wang Yaowu also said: "That's it! Our 74th Army and Brother Qin have cooperated many times, and they are all familiar with it! It's more appropriate for us to go! ”
"Haha! Brother Huang! Let them go this time, and next time I promise to invite you to go! As long as Commander Xue puts! ”
"Absolutely! In the future, Brother Qin has any battle plan, just say hello! We'll never frown again! Xue Yue laughed,
After a day of repair, Zhang Lingfu took the reorganized 74th Army into civilian clothes and followed the Qingtian Army to Huangshan.
"Big brother! How did you bring back such an army this time? ”
"These are national troops! Let's take a good look at the little devil again this time! "The devil always thinks that there are less than 1,000 people in the Huangshan Optimus Army, and last time it was ambushed by Kawaguchi Kenichi more than 200 people, and now there are only seven or eight hundred people left, and after the battle of Poyang Lake, at least 180 people will have to be lost, so the Optimus Army will be 700 people at most.
If these hundreds of people go to attack Chizhou, although they are afraid of war, they must not watch Chizhou being captured, so they will definitely send a large army to recapture it again, and then the 74th Army will come in handy, which is more than 20,000 troops in an army.
Qin Tian still used the weapon simulator to deduce a few times, and then told Zhang Lingfu and other commanders about the tactics, Yi Chen, Han Zhang, who went to Chizhou to investigate, and they also came back, this time they didn't dare to be careless, and they reconnoitred the entire Chizhou.
"Big brother! Now Chizhou is still the Ishihara Wing, and the two infantry brigades that followed Kawaguchi Kenichi before have been transferred! ”
"Is there only one wing?"
"You can't be wrong this time! There is only one wing left! ”
"Good! Then we'll do it tomorrow night! Strive to take Chizhou in one go! ”
"Brother Qin! Are we really not going to enter Chizhou first? ”
"No need to enter! Do what I told you before! I promise you'll have a good time this time! "Qin Tian didn't dare to be careless this time, let the 74th Army be outside the city to prevent the surrounding devils and puppet troops from coming to support, the devils on the river are easy to handle, as long as Chizhou is taken back, then this is another big pit for devils!
The next night, Qin Tian personally set off to Jiuhua Mountain with the Qingtian Army, and the 74th Army also followed the night march to Jiuhua Mountain to hide first, which was close to Chizhou.
On the night of the third day, the Qingtian Army began to act, they rode horses to attack the Devil Cavalry Wing outside Qishan Town, this is a horse breeding farm for the Devils, Qin Tian has long been thinking about it, the first few times they were not there, according to the latest information, during this time, the two infantry brigades in Chizhou City are gone, but Qishan Town has quietly come to a cavalry wing, which is all the information given by Fengrui.
"Big brother! Shall we grab the war horse first this time? ”
"I've got everything here! If you have good marksmanship, you must first knock out the devil's communication equipment! ”
"I know, the eldest brother wants to pretend to be this cavalry wing and enter Chizhou City!"
"Not bad! So this time we can't let go of a devil cavalry! Did you hear that!? ”
"Understood!"
