Chapter 503: The Tiger Ben Regiment Changes Strategy

Give it a go, turn your bike into a motorcycle!

Bet on it, motorcycles become Land Rovers!

In order to be able to leave his name for eternity, Fu Yisheng, commander of the Taiyuan Garrison, thought for a while, and immediately made arrangements: "Tell that Liu Zhendong that the garrison headquarters has now promoted him to the commander of the new 3rd Regiment, leading the army with the rank of colonel!"

The headquarters will immediately send reinforcements, and let him lead the new 3rd Regiment to defend the south gate to the death, and be sure to hold out until the reinforcements arrive, and no one is allowed to retreat! Those who retreat without permission will be killed!"

"Yes!"

The tactical staff officer answered and immediately called to convey the order.

Fu Yisheng turned his head again, looked at a major general officer and shouted, "Chen Qinghua! ”

"Yes!"

The major general straightened up and agreed with a bang.

"Now I order you to immediately lead the 1st Independent Brigade, as well as the garrison guard regiment, to the south gate immediately!

No matter what the cost, you must keep this group of Japanese mobile troops out of the city gates! ”

"Yes!"

Chen Qinghua, the commander of the 1st Independent Brigade, saluted Fu Yisheng respectfully, then turned around and ran quickly towards the door.

A colonel of the staff said after Chen Qinghua left: "Commander, at present, our Taiyuan City is extremely empty, and it may be difficult to resist the strong attack of the Japanese army.

If you don't get reinforcements, I'm afraid that sooner or later you will fall.

Therefore, from the point of view of humble duty, should we tell this situation to Commander Yang and let him think of a countermeasure.

After all, he's my tactical advisor in the second theater. ”

"Yes, Commander!"

The rest of the people also chimed in.

Unconsciously, Yang Chen and the Tiger Bentuan have become their lifesavers.

"Hmm!"

Fu Yisheng thought for a moment and agreed to their proposal.

……

Mingqian Town, the position of the defenders of the Tiger Ben Regiment.

At this time, Xu Ming, Li Da and others happened to lead the rest of the soldiers of the Tiger Regiment to arrive at the position from Niushou Mountain.

And Yang Chen also happened to lead the defenders of the Tiger Ben Regiment to clean up the battlefield.

Just let the brothers under his command have a good rest, and after recovering some physical strength and energy, he will take the initiative to attack the Japanese 4th Division.

It is not only to avenge the brothers who died in battle, but also to completely relieve the troubles on the Eastern Front once and for all.

It would be even better if he could kill that old devil of Nishio Shouzo by the way.

Maybe this time the devil can be directly dismantled, and the conspiracy to annex the whole of Shanxi may not be!

However, now, with the urgent telegram sent by the garrison headquarters, Yang Chen had to completely overturn his original plan.

Garrison Headquarters of the Tiger Regiment.

All officers at the battalion commander level and above are listed.

After Yang Chen looked around, he said in a serious voice: "Brothers, the original planned rest has been canceled!" ”

"Huh? Why? Are you planning to strike while the iron is hot and immediately launch an attack on the 4th Division of the Japanese Army? ”

Li Jiufu, the commander of the machine gun battalion, was stunned for a moment, and then his face was eager to try.

The others are also standing up at the moment.

"No, the class teacher will go back to Taiyuan City!"

"Huh?"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but stand on the spot.

"Rake the ears, you tell them."

"Yes!"

Rake Ear suddenly agreed, and immediately got up, and told the story of the Japanese army's sudden attack on the south gate of Taiyuan City at the fastest speed.

"These little devils are really insidious! I said how it was that neither the Western Front nor the Eastern Front had met their cavalry and tank armorers, and they had planned it early on! ”

After listening to this, Xu Hailang said hatefully.

"No!"

Yang Chen shook his head slowly, and continued: "The devil's intention at the beginning was not like this, if my expectation is not bad, the old devil of Nishio Shouzao is planning to surround the three queyi.

Because he thought he could eat us, he deliberately opened a hole in the south of the city.

And these cavalry and tank armored soldiers were left in the south of the city, and after the city was broken, they were used to pursue and strangle the defenders of our Taiyuan City.

It's just that Nishio Shouzo miscalculated their strength, so he had to temporarily change his strategy! ”

Yang Chen didn't see through Nishio Shouzo's intentions, but read the ability through memory, and the information he got from the devil officer on the battlefield.

This is also the real reason why he suddenly prepared to launch a general attack on the Japanese 4th Division.

It's just that he never expected that Nishio Shouzo's strategy would change so quickly.

This mobile unit, which was originally used to cover the defeated army, will now be used as a siege force.

Disrupting his deployment all at once caught him off guard.

Yang Chen's sharp gaze looked around: "I'll give you ten minutes to prepare now, and after ten minutes, everyone will return to Taiyuan City!" ”

After a pause, Yang Chen muttered to himself with some embarrassment: "I hope the defenders can hold out until my Tiger Ben Regiment rushes back, and they don't abandon the city and flee in advance." ”

"Tuanzuo, everyone has returned to Taiyuan City, so what should I do about this eastern front position?"

Wang Gui frowned and asked.

"Don't! If my prediction is correct, with the southern gate of Taiyuan City being breached, the remaining two armies will inevitably turn back to defend the city; At that time, it will no longer be of much significance for us to stay in a single position on the Eastern Front, so it is better to pull them all back to the city.

Hurry up and get ready! ”

"Yes!"

……

Just when Chen Qinghua led the 1st Independent Brigade and the Garrison Guard Regiment, nearly 5,000 elite officers and soldiers rushed towards the south gate of Taiyuan City.

The bombing of the devil aviation is over.

At this time, the entire south of the city was already in disarray, the city tower collapsed, and many places of the city wall were blown up.

And the commander of the 108th Division of the Japanese Army, Sekihara Matsujiro, happened to lead the steel torrent composed of cavalry and tank armored troops to swarm towards the west gate of Taiyuan City.

Fly fast!

There were 6,000 officers in this mixed army, and all of them were elite.

The new 3rd Regiment and the Artillery Brigade, which were responsible for guarding the south gate, had nearly 2,500 men.

But under the bombing of the Japanese air force, more than half of them were already killed and wounded.

In particular, officers at all levels suffered heavy casualties, and basically all units were crippled.

Although Liu Zhendong was temporarily promoted to colonel and was responsible for leading the defenders to continue to defend the city, the new 3rd Regiment and the Artillery Brigade had already collapsed at that time.

In particular, the batteries of the base running brigade became the focus of the devil air force in the previous bombing, and almost all the batteries were blown up.

At this time, Liu Zhendong only gathered seven or eight hundred troops and stood on the wall of the south gate of Taiyuan.

With the arrogant departure of the Japanese aviation troops, they were able to come out and launch a fire block against the swarming devil regiments outside the city.

"Brothers, behind us is the city of Taiyuan! Don't let the little devils pass! Fight with them!" Liu Zhendong raised his pistol and opened fire, while pulling his throat to encourage the order.

More than 700 soldiers tried their best to resist and fired bullets at the devil army under the city.
