Chapter 163: Counterattack on all fronts
The battle has reached the last moment, and the victory or defeat is in the palm of a thought!
"Sato-kun! If we don't withdraw, our attacking forces will be wiped out! ”
Kuramori was already restless, several of their attacks were fought back by the second battalion, and the tank planes were completely useless. Not to mention the stubbornness of the second battalion, and with the assistance of a terrible special combat team, the defense area in that area was simply impregnable. As for the attacking troops, they suffered heavy losses in the face of street fighting, as in guerrilla warfare.
"I can't fail, I won't lose to Ye Lei!"
Sato's eyes were wide and bloodshot, and he seemed to have lost his mind. He lost to Ye Lei again this time, and it was even worse than the last defeat, he had too much unwillingness in his heart, so he said loudly: "Ask Hongkou to send reinforcements, we can't just give up!" ”
"Sato!" Kuramori tightened his eyebrows, glared at Sato and yelled, which made Mitsuhiko Sato calm down a little.
Cang Sen said: "You know, there will be no reinforcements. Our main force engaged Chen Cheng's troops in the north, and the follow-up troops had not yet arrived. Hongkou's strength is already the limit! ”
Sato didn't speak, and Kuramori said calmly: "I apologize to Sato-kun for my previous rudeness." You are a nobleman and the first samurai of our empire, and it is because I don't know the truth that I am rude to you. You didn't make a mistake in the command of this operation, as you said, Ye Lei is too powerful, it's not your fault. ”
Cangmori's words relieved Sato a little, and Cangsen said: "I will take over your command now, you have no opinion, right?" ”
During the day, Mitsuhiko Sato used the tactics of combining the inside and the outside to take two-thirds of the right flank of Zhabei in one fell swoop, and the headquarters was very pleased, so he re-issued an order and ordered Mitsuhiko Sato to be the commander of the left flank.
Now that Sato has lost his mind and confidence, if he continues to command, it will only cause more casualties to the troops, so Kuramori has to take command of the power, after all, most of the troops there are his own troops.
Sato still didn't speak, but he felt that it was pitch black in front of him and his mind was blank.
Cang Sen immediately ordered the troops to retreat on all fronts, and deployed a sophisticated retreat plan to allow the troops to leave Zhabei safely.
At the command of the 88 division. Information about the withdrawal of the Japanese troops was immediately transmitted back to the division headquarters.
The Japanese army was not defeated, but evacuated the front in a very orderly manner. Arrange firepower at the mouth of the main alley and the commanding heights to cover the withdrawal of the large army, and then arrange the firepower again in the rear, and leave quickly and step by step in a staggered manner. The left flank was evacuated from the southern city, and the right flank was evacuated from the northern city, bypassing the 2nd Battalion Defense Zone.
"The devil has withdrawn! Okay, order the troops to pursue on all fronts and drive these invaders out of Zhabei! ”
Sun Yuanliang was excited, this time it was the 88th Division that won, and it was when the situation was unfavorable to his own side, and it reversed the defeat and achieved the final victory.
"No, you can't!"
Ye Lei suddenly objected. The third stage of the battle plan was for the second battalion to storm the Baotong Road, and the fourth stage was to counterattack on all fronts. However, the Japanese army withdrew in an orderly manner, and the troops must have suffered great losses in blind pursuit.
Ye Lei said: "The Japanese army is not defeated, they still have enough troops, if the blind pursuit is very unfavorable to our side, so we have to change the plan." ”
Zhang Baiting asked, "How to change?" ”
Ye Lei said: "Since it is not a rout, the enemy's alternate cover action must be slow. We sent small forces to feint in pursuit, allowing the enemy to continue to retreat alternately. The main force all entered the highway and advanced rapidly, a part of the troops blocked the roads everywhere, and a part of the troops went to the left and right urban areas of the second battalion to make arrangements to cut off the enemy's rear road. Mainly in the northern district, there are already special forces in the southern district. ”
The victory was decided, Ye Lei wanted to take advantage of the victory to expand the results, Sun Yuanliang made a quick decision and ordered the troops to leave the city and enter the highway, and assault on all fronts. He also ordered Zhu Chi to send a battalion directly from the left flank of Zhabei to the right flank and deploy defenses in the northern city of the second battalion to take the lead.
"Boom" "......"
On the road, the 88th Division directly sent tanks to quickly advance and occupy all key road crossings at the fastest speed.
"Kill~" "Kill~"
The horn of the Great Rebellion has been sounded, and earth-shattering cries of killing have resounded everywhere on the right wing.
"Hit!"
"Da Da Da" "Da Da Da" "Da Da Da" "......"
Seeing the devil coming out of the mouth of the alley, the machine guns at the intersection directly began to fire wildly.
"Boom Boom" "......"
"Dadada" "......"
The devil used grenades, grenadiers, and machine guns to fight back desperately, and then quickly crossed the road without a heartbeat. Even so, they had no small casualties, and other units were scattered and fled in all directions.
The entire right flank was filled with gunfire, bombings, and fierce fighting in almost every area.
When this group of devils retreated to the eastern region like headless flies, but a net had been laid here. Bullets often come from the shadows, and grenades are thrown at them out of nowhere.
"Boom!" "Boom!" “……”
"Bang! Bang! ……”
"Brothers, kill the devil!"
In an alley, several devil stragglers were suddenly surrounded and annihilated. After the gunfire and explosion, more than two dozen people rushed out from all directions and killed those devils indiscriminately.
"Damn, it's Allah's, it's Allah's!"
"Fuck you, whoever saw it, bring it!"
“……”
Just a few devils, more than 20 people robbed the corpse of things, weapons, hats, clothes, belts, pants, and shoelaces. didn't write down the effort, these devils were naked, lying in the alley with white flowers.
At this time, a man who seemed to be the captain of the team with a shell gun came out and shouted: "Grab what!? There are devils everywhere, don't die! ”
As soon as the voice fell, "Bang! "Bang!" "......" a team of devils suddenly killed. Several people were killed on the spot, and others quickly dispersed.
These people are Du Yuesheng's special forces, all of which are composed of members of the Green Gang, and they have been established for less than half a month.
More than 500 people were scattered all over the southern district, Ye Lei only asked them to shoot and throw grenades, and they could wipe out a small group of devils, but they must be evacuated as soon as possible. But the things on the devil's body are all rare, and it is also evidence that they have killed the devil.
Although the Einsatzgruppen has never been on the battlefield and has not done much formal training, it has never been vague about killing devils. Cutting people is their business, and besides, killing devils in this environment is a hero, and they can show off in front of people. The devils scattered everywhere all became the prey of these ruffians, they were more locusts than locusts, and the devils who were killed did not even have diapers left.
Although the devils in the southern region suffered a lot of losses, most of the irregular troops they encountered were not so lucky, but the devils in the northern district were not so lucky. The commanding heights, alleys, and dark places are guarded by soldiers, and the devils can only break through with their heads and death, because there are still a large number of pursuers behind.
The center of gravity of the battle began to shift to the east, and the various devil units lost their complete formation and command system in the process of retreating, and their troops also died quickly on the way. Some of them are squads, squads, and squadrons, but these units are not sound. By the time all the troops broke out, there were less than three hundred men left.
At the last moment, Sun Yuanliang issued the last order, ordering all combat troops to counterattack on all fronts!
The Japanese army was already in a rout, and the main force of the 262nd Brigade of the 88th Division attacked them like a tide. In desperation, Sato evacuated Zhabei with all the remnants, and fled in the direction of Hongkou in embarrassment.
In this battle, the Japanese army and navy were wounded, not counting the casualties, and a total of nearly 2,000 people were killed, and they were again severely damaged by the 88th Division in Zhabei. Although the 88th Division was victorious, the casualties were around 2,000, and the casualties exceeded 3,000 in the battle at Sanyili on the left flank.
Sun Yuanliang was very happy to win, but Ye Lei didn't come up with him to dispatch a special combat team, which made him feel dissatisfied, because this was not the first time, Sun Yuanliang blamed: "Ye Lei, why did you dispatch a special combat team without asking for instructions?" ”
Ye Lei explained: "I'm sorry. The key to victory or defeat lies in the second battalion, and the special combat team is only to ensure the final victory, and we have sacrificed too many people. Also, I don't understand, why didn't such a key team let me have a special team to fight? ”
Sun Yuanliang sighed and said, "I don't want a next time." As for the reason, I don't know, it was an order directly given to me by Nanjing. ”
Ye Lei observed Sun Yuanliang's expression, it seemed that he was really angry, but Ye Lei cared more about the latter sentence. It seems that he is about to return to the battlefield to carry out a very special and important mission. The god of resistance against Japan
