Chapter 353 Secret Advance
The shelling lasted ten minutes.
Ten minutes later, Li Lei ordered the heavy artillery units to stop the shelling and sent the 2nd Independent Regiment to rush over.
There are still quite a few devils struggling there.
Although his hands and feet were broken, the screams were very loud, which surprised Liu Yuan.
The vitality of this devil is very tenacious!
The independent second regiment that rushed over immediately began to deal with those devils who were still struggling.
As long as it can move, it will be a bayonet to go up.
Of course, if you move badly, there will be more than one knife.
There are a few devils who are not ordinarily lucky, and under the attack of heavy artillery, there is no.
When a few soldiers rushed over, those devils could still resist with guns.
was directly burst by a platoon commander's bullet.
In particular, not only did you not surrender, but you dared to attack us!
Liu Yuan let people take a look, in this place, there are hundreds of dead devils.
After eliminating the devils here, there are not many devils left in other places in Linxiang City.
The sound of gunfire continued, occasionally interspersed with the sound of tank shells.
The heavy artillery directly killed the commander of the Japanese army and his headquarters, which surprised Li Lei very much.
Moreover, he also killed so many devils at once, which made Li Lei a little confused.
The commander of the Japanese army, what are you going to do when you gather so many devils?
asked Xu Hu, Xu Hu was also a little confused.
He saw a group of devils here, so he immediately reported it, and he didn't think about it that much!
If you don't understand it, forget it, it's a good thing anyway.
The command of the Nara detachment is gone, and the remaining devils don't know what to do at all.
can only follow the original order and continue to defend to the death.
The devil's mind is very dull.
If you don't receive an order from your superiors, you will always follow the original order.
Didn't know how to work around at all.
In this bombing, more than 1,000 devils died almost 800, and the remaining 300 devils were lucky, they were on the verge of the explosion, and as soon as the heavy artillery sounded, they ran away.
These devils who ran away wanted to break out, but the city gate had been occupied by Li Lei's new brigade, and they couldn't get out at all.
I can only go to join up with other devils.
At this time, the new 1st Brigade had occupied most of Linxiang City, and the 58th Army had also rushed to the city.
It won't take long to end the battle.
The Nara detachment is finished.
After Li Lei sent a telegram to Tiger Boy, he immediately led his troops to advance to southern Hunan.
The little devils in Linxiang City are not enough for the 58th Army to stuff their teeth.
The tiger boy who received Li Lei's telegram was immediately overjoyed.
That's great!
The Nara detachment was annihilated, and Anan had a lot less troops to mobilize.
Moreover, it will make Anan Yuji angry.
will allow his Eleventh Army to advance at a faster pace.
In this way, it will make the front of his troops longer.
This is very beneficial to me for the tiger cub.
Lao Wu is also very excited, this is a very good start.
Li Lei's new 1st Brigade, the combat effectiveness is really not to talk about.
Being able to annihilate the Nara detachment of the Japanese army with the 58th Army so quickly made him a little unbelievable.
Although the new brigade for Li Lei transferred tanks and heavy artillery, the speed was also a little too fast.
"Don't believe it, do you?" Tiger Boy looked at the map and said, "I can't believe it either. This Li Lei is really a fierce general, and he annihilated the Nara detachment so quickly. To be honest, I didn't expect that. ”
Lao Wu said in surprise: "If you don't accept it, you can't do it, Li Lei uses soldiers, and it's really powerful."
I think his way of using troops this time is a bit of a blitzkrieg.
And the use of tanks and heavy artillery is very reasonable.
I couldn't believe it.
This was his first time using a tank, right? It was able to play the role of the tank to such an extent.
If you don't accept it, you can't do it. ”
Tiger Boy nodded: "This person was born to be a piece of material for war. It's not for me to say, in time, Li Lei's achievements will be above you and me. ”
"That's a good thing!" Lao Wu sighed sincerely: "In this way, the Japanese army has another difficult opponent." ”
The tiger boy nodded, and shook his head again.
Meddlesome?
Or is it a bad thing?
He's really hard to draw conclusions about it right now.
I hope that in the future, it is good that Li Lei will not become his enemy.
Anan's army was already on its way.
The 33rd Division of the Japanese Army was advancing towards Linxiang at full speed.
At this time, a devil hurried over: "Report to the commander of the division, the telegram of the commander!" ”
Ichiro Ozawahara, commander of the 33rd Division, took the telegram and glanced at it.
The small eyes immediately widened.
He read the contents of the telegram several times and could hardly believe it.
The Nara detachment was killed by the other side?
Impossible, right?
The shocked Ozawawara 1st Brigade looked at the time, it had only been two hours since his division left Wuhan, how could the Nara detachment be wiped out so quickly?
The Nara detachment has almost 8,000 troops!
Although a wing was annihilated by the other side in Xitang, there were still more than 5,000 troops.
So many people, how did the other party kill them so quickly?
No matter how powerful the combat effectiveness of the opposing troops is, it is impossible to take out the Nara detachment so quickly.
Ichiro Ozawahara didn't believe it at all.
He immediately sent a telegram to Anan Weiji, asking for the authenticity of the news.
The results obtained are real.
The Nara detachment is now unreachable.
And what about my troops now?
Return the same way or continue to advance towards Linxiang?
Anan Weiji did not give any further orders.
Since there is no new order, it can only continue to march into Linxiang according to the original order.
At this time, the headquarters of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army in Wuhan was quiet.
All the devils did not dare to squeak.
Otherwise, it is very likely that Anan Weiji will be arrested and beaten severely.
At this time, it is better not to hit the muzzle of the gun.
Anan's face is now black and can't be darker.
The whole person was pumping.
The old man with a pulled face.
The news of the annihilation of the Nara detachment shocked him.
This was completely unexpected.
The Nara detachment didn't even hold on for half a day!
This is so counterintuitive.
Although he knew that the opponent's offensive force was the main force of the tiger boy, this combat power was also a bit too strong.
The Nara detachment is gone, so what should his army do next?
Withdraw troops?
No way!
Now the entire Eleventh Army has poured out, and tens of thousands of horses are almost in Hunan.
It is really unreasonable to withdraw troops now.
This is the first time he has commanded such a large battle, and if he withdraws his troops before he sees the opposing army, he will lose his face with a few faces.
Moreover, although the annihilation of the Nara detachment surprised him, his grand plan was not affected by this.
Plans for a blitzkrieg attack on Changsha are still ongoing.
Konoe Wen stuck his head out: "Your Excellency Commander, the 33rd Division, do you want to attack Linxiang?" ”
In Konoewen's view, although the strategic location of Linxiang is not important, the 33rd Division must occupy Linxiang again.
In their plan, Linxiang was still in their hands, so that when they launched a blitzkrieg to attack Changsha, they did not have to think about the back of the troops and being attacked by the opposing troops.
Now that Linxiang is in the hands of the tiger cub, if they don't snatch it back, then there will be an extra thorn in their offensive line.
It's a very uncomfortable feeling.
However, if Linxiang was attacked again, without the Nara detachment as an internal response, it would inevitably delay the offensive time of the entire Eleventh Army.
For a while, Konoe didn't have a clue.
This kind of headache should be decided by Commander Anan Wei.
Anan Wei looked at the map with scarlet eyes, and finally said slowly: "The plan remains unchanged, order the 33rd Division to continue to march towards Linxiang." After arriving at the periphery of Linxiang, immediately launch an attack, and be sure to quickly take Linxiang City.
Then, advance towards Dayun Mountain to attract Tiger Cub's defense forces at the New Wall River.
Let the Saeda detachment, cooperate with the attack of the 33rd Division, and the speed must be fast.
After taking Dayun Mountain, the 33rd Division immediately withdrew from Dayun Mountain and joined up with the 106th Division.
Daiunzan was taken over by the Saeda detachment.
The 106th Division was ordered to immediately launch a fierce attack on the position of the Tiger Boy in Xinqiang River when the defending troops of the Tiger Boy Xinqiang River were entangled. Within half a day, they broke through their positions and advanced all the way to Changsha. ”
Anami Yuji did not change his attack plan because the Nara detachment was annihilated.
On the contrary, he made the entire attacking force speed up the advance.
Now the main force of the tiger boy is in Linxiang City, and now let the 33rd attack Linxiang be able to hit the main force of the tiger cub hard.
Anan Yuji's original plan was to completely annihilate the main force of Tiger Boy, but he thought about it for a while, Tiger Boy would definitely retreat quickly after fighting the Nara detachment.
Because Linxiang is very close to southern Hunan, and it is in a prominent position, there is no support from other troops on both sides.
Alone, it's easy to get surrounded.
Tiger Boy won't let his troops stay in Linxiang for too long.
Their aim is to get more leverage at the negotiating table.
Now that the chips are there, the Nara detachment has been wiped out, and it would be a fool to let his main force stay in Linxiang any longer.
It's impossible for the tiger cub not to see it.
Now Anan only thinks about it, which is to catch up with the main force of the tiger cub and strike hard.
If you can hit the main force of the tiger cub hard, then the next battle will be much easier.
After the Nara detachment was annihilated, Li Lei's new 1st Brigade immediately advanced to southern Hunan, according to the predetermined plan.
In order to avoid encountering the 11th Army of the Japanese army, Li Lei's new 1st Brigade made a large-scale detour.
Bypassed the main road.
The 58th Army quickly retreated and withdrew to the area of Huangshakou.
When the time comes, together with the Fourth Army, launch an attack on the Japanese army, cut the Japanese army, and drag the troops behind the Japanese army.
By the time the 33rd Division of the Japanese army arrived in Linxiang, Linxiang City was already an empty city.
