Chapter 26: Less Wins More (Part II)

Furukawa Daisa's tank was not destroyed in the first place because it was located in the center of his tank formation.

Startled by the sound of explosions and the sound of gunfire coming from behind him, he immediately jumped out of the tank he was in, turned his head and looked behind him.

The scene that caught his eyes frightened Furukawa Daisa.

Everywhere there were constantly fire and explosion of our own tanks, dense and dazzling tongues of fire from the rear of their own troops, and everywhere they passed, the tanks of the 16th Tank Wing were riddled with holes and seriously damaged.

Some tanks, because they were bombarded by the enemy's artillery fire, were blown through on the spot, and the explosion also detonated the ammunition inside the tank, and more violent explosions occurred.

As a result, those tanks were torn apart in a violent explosion and disintegrated on the spot!

"Bage Yalu, damn it, we're in ambush!" Seeing this, Furukawa Daisa suddenly realized that they had been ambushed by the heavy troops of the Chinese army.

Shocked, he ordered the surrounding tanks to turn around and meet the attackers led by Xu Wen.

While sending someone to contact Fan Zezaburo's cavalry wing in the town, in fact, Fan Zezaburo had already noticed that he had been fooled when the guns rang out behind him.

However, he made a wrong choice, he did not lead his cavalry team to attack directly, if this is the case, only more than 50 Qingfeng Village ambush soldiers and more than 100 unexpectedly arrived national army rout, it will definitely not be able to block all the more than 2,000 devil cavalry.

Instead, he immediately gave up rescuing the cavalry squadron that was ambushed, and ordered his cavalry to turn around and withdraw from the town.

What Fan Zezaburo thought was that no matter how many Chinese troops ambushed them, they would withdraw first and join Furukawa's tank wing, and the two forces would be together, how could they break out of a bloody road.

However, he underestimated the strength of the armored forces of the independent brigade, and also ignored the impact of the change of orders on the morale and formation of his own troops in such a situation of being attacked from the belly and back.

Many of the devil cavalry were frightened when they learned that the friendly troops behind them had also been attacked, and then they were given the order to turn around and retreat, and the formation of more than 2,000 horses suddenly fell into chaos.

The street, which was not spacious, became the biggest obstacle to the U-turn and regrouping of the devil cavalry.

Countless devil cavalry trampled on each other, and they could not withdraw to reinforce the tank wing at the first time.

And the armored units of the Independent Brigade, under the command of Xu Wen, were still destroying one Japanese tank after another at an alarming speed.

Because their firepower was too fierce, before the devil tank turned around to meet the battle, more than 30 Japanese tanks had been destroyed by Xu Wen and them.

The remaining dozen or so Japanese tanks were naturally no match for five No. 4 tanks, plus ten armed Humvee military vehicles.

A rain of artillery shells and anti-aircraft machine gun shells rushed through, destroying more than a dozen Type 89 and Type 95 tanks, including the tank where Furukawa Daisa was located.

Naturally, none of the tank soldiers inside were spared, and all of them were killed.

Xu Wen immediately took the walkie-talkie and gave an order to all the tanks and armed military vehicles: "Brothers, continue to assault forward and kill the enemy's cavalry wing!" Not a single one to stay! ”

"Yes! Not a single one to stay! ”

"None of them will be left!" The responses of Li Wu and other officers and soldiers were transmitted back through the on-board radio equipment.

As a result, five No. 4 tanks were in front, and ten armed Humvee military vehicles were on its flanks, forming a long snake formation over the chariots filled with flames and thick smoke.

Passing through the Japanese tanks that had been blown to scrap metal and emitting flames and black smoke, they rushed to the entrance to the north of the town.

At this time, the more than 2,000 cavalry under Fan Zezaburo could adjust the formation and rushed out from the town in a very crowded manner.

The two completely different units encountered each other head-on about 100 meters north of Zhaojiaqiao Town.

When I saw huge chariots and military vehicles with the battle flags of the national army, they appeared in front of their troops from the battlefield filled with gunsmoke.

Looking at the wreckage of his own tank everywhere, Fan Zezaburo's shocked eyes almost fell out.

Dumbfounded, he said with a shocked face: "This, how is this possible? How much effort does it take? A tank and tank wing of the Imperial Army was wiped out by the beating? ”

Fan Zezaburo, who had never comprehended the combat effectiveness and might of the armored forces, could not believe that more than 30 tanks and combat vehicles of his own side had been completely wiped out in such a short period of time.

In fact, with the advanced weapons and the strength of the firepower possessed by this armored unit under Xu Wen, it is not surprising to destroy such a Japanese armored unit.

Because the firepower, rate of fire, armor protection, and mobility of both sides are not on the same level at all.

It's like a 200-pound fat man beating a three-year-old child, or a sneak attack, if the devil can parry it, then it's really weird.

Fan Zezaburo and the other devils were shocked, Xu Wenke was not stunned, and directly ordered all tanks and armed military vehicles to fire together through the radio.

Suddenly, shells came out of the barrels of the five No. 4 tanks, and the vehicle-mounted anti-aircraft machine guns also let out a roar at the same time, firing at full power.

A series of hot and dazzling tongues of fire were shot, turning into countless bullet rains, roaring towards the devil cavalry.

The cannonballs fired by the tank guns were the first to fall into the crowd of devil cavalry, like a meteorite falling, and suddenly produced a violent explosion, blowing up hundreds of devil cavalry, even men and horses.

However, the most lethal is still the ten high-rate-fire, high-power anti-aircraft machine guns, and the bullets they fire form a dense network of firepower.

towards the crowd of devil cavalry, head-on enveloped.

Everywhere the bullets rained, countless devil cavalry screamed and fell from their horses.

Under the strafing of countless armor-piercing shells with a caliber of 12.7 mm, the war horses under their crotches were not spared, and they screamed and fell down one after another.

For a while, the crowd of devil cavalry was a group of people on their backs, and flesh and blood flew sideways, which was miserable.

Fan Zewatanabe reacted at this time, and hurriedly ordered his cavalry to charge, wanting to fight to the death!

However, under the blockade and suppression of the powerful fire of ten anti-aircraft machine guns and five 75-mm tank flat-firing guns, the devil cavalry rushed up and fell down in waves, and they could not get close at all.

In less than a few minutes, more than half of the casualties were killed.

Seeing that the situation was not good, a Japanese cavalry junior next to Fan Zezaburo immediately suggested to him: "Sir, the firepower of the armored troops of the Chinese army is too strong, it is impossible for us to defeat them from the front and break through, so let's quickly order to withdraw into the town and wait for reinforcements!" ”
