301. You will not die, you will not be alive
The night is always so quick to end, and the day is always so slow and difficult to pass; Everyone rested for the night, but they still haven't recovered from the fatigue of continuous combat in the past few days.
Time came inexorably on the morning of November 24, and this tragic battle of Wangting had been fought for three whole days, and the 305th Regiment, with no reinforcements and no supplies, was desperately holding on to this road to hell.
Now there is no defensive depth, and there is an iron bridge behind him, this kind of back-to-back battle is very dangerous for the 305th regiment of the defenders, but fortunately, now the enemy is no longer engaged in large-scale artillery bombardment.
The reason is very simple, the Japanese army is afraid that the artillery will collapse the No. 137 railway bridge, so why work so hard, if you want to bomb, you can bomb it a long time ago, and now you want to keep the bridge to borrow the railway to transport the large troops behind.
On the morning of the 24th, the Japanese army only used mortars to bombard the main position of Wangting, and at most 37 guns and 75 guns arrived close and fired at the bunker, and did not dare to hit the direction of the bridge.
However, the Japanese infantry estimated that they had fought too much yesterday, and they did not slow down today, and they were obviously not as fierce as yesterday, but they only sent small teams of men and horses to make a tentative attack.
Once it encounters the resistance of the national army, it will stand still, waiting for the small artillery behind to clear the fire point and suppress the fire of the 92 heavy machine.
The whole morning's battle, like grinding foreign workers, made the wing commander of the 19th Wing of the 9th Division of the Japanese Army so angry that he was about to jump, after all, he had a task on his body.
Today is the last day of the deadline, if the task cannot be completed, the wing captain of the devil is estimated to be transferred back to the domestic reserve, and his future will basically be ruined.
At lunchtime, several captains and squadron leaders of the Japanese army, after being roared by the joint commander Renjian Hidesansa, began a stormy attack in the afternoon, and it continued.
Although there is no heavy firepower, there are also mortars, 37 guns, etc., which are also unbearable for the national army, and even more unbearable are tanks.
The Japanese tanks finally arrived today, and they came in handy immediately in the afternoon, and the position of the 305th Regiment was suddenly under tremendous pressure, and there were no anti-tank weapons, no anti-tank trenches, so they could only be blown up with grenades and carried with human lives.
Originally, the original heavy machine gun was equipped with some steel core bullets, which could be used to hit the tracks of tanks, as long as the angle was good, and several steel core bullets could be hit in a row, the tracks could be broken, but unfortunately, the heavy machine guns were basically blown up by devils yesterday.
After a few days of quenching, the soldiers of the 305th Regiment quickly grew up on the battlefield, followed the veterans, lying on the ground in style, and learned to blow up tanks.
One group threw grenades to create smoke cover, and one group jumped to the side of the tank to blow up the tracks, and many tanks were still shooting even if the tracks were broken and could not move, so they still had to blow them up.
At the beginning, some troops had to kill hundreds of people in order to blow up an Iron King Ba; Now, everyone has slowly found a way to deal with it, and there are not so many people to die, but it is still very dangerous, and they will be killed by the machine guns in the tank at any time.
The Shaanxi baby of the 305th regiment, there is almost no mischief, and they fight with the veterans, and now everyone is blocking the enemy in the main position south of the bridge, and the reserves are not put in the north of the bridge, and all the reserves are put into it.
After all, in the face of the attack of several squadrons of the enemy, on the small position, thousands of people were fighting and fighting; In front of the heavy weapons of the Japanese army, the national army had no choice but to put it into the fight.
Fortunately, the Japanese army was also willing to fight close combat with the national army, and it is estimated that they were also forced by the pressure of time and tasks, and had to fight with the national army.
But the problem is that the Japanese army still has a lot of rear hands, including reserves, several squadrons are waiting for work in the back, and when the two sides are in close combat, the Japanese wing commander Hitomi Hidesan ordered the remaining squadrons to attack on all fronts.
Suddenly, the balance of the battlefield immediately tilted, the national army likes to fight close combat with the Japanese army, in addition to being forced to be helpless, in fact, there are many people, but the Japanese army is not stupid, they will also play crowd tactics.
Once the number of Japanese troops with weapons and individual quality was superior, the national army had nothing, only the fate of defeat remained, looking at the overwhelming Japanese army, Commander Zhang Lingwu almost despaired.
Even the veterans are desperate for the addition of the three dogs, it seems that they are going around and around, and they can't escape the fate of dying in battle, so they will explain themselves here today.
Regiment Commander Zhang was preparing to ask a platoon of engineers to blow up the No. 137 railway bridge, even if the whole regiment died here, the Japanese army could not take the bridge.
Even if the Japanese sappers will build the bridge, after all, this is a railway bridge, and it cannot be repaired every few days, so that the large force of hundreds of thousands of national troops will be almost withdrawn.
Once the bridge was blown up, the whole regiment of soldiers who remained south of the bridge had no choice but to fight against the water, and in the end, none of them would be able to survive.
Thinking of this, Head Zhang looked sadly at the direction of his hometown in the northwest, the fathers and villagers in Guanzhong, offended, these thousands of babies are going to die with me today, I'm sorry; Ambition is not rewarded, and the body dies first, unwillingly.
Just when the position was only one line away from collapse, there was a burst of gunfire behind the enemy, dense Czech machine guns, the sound of Chinese formal rifles, and the shouts of killing in Chinese.
There are reinforcements, we are saved, the people of the 305th regiment can't believe it, if there are reinforcements from behind their backs, they can still believe it, but who else is coming behind the enemy?
Who else? It was a brother regiment that had never met in the same brigade, the 306th Regiment, and the 306th Regiment, which had completed the blocking mission from Wujiang, arrived at this time.
They also urgently needed to rush through the enemy's last blockade line, and it just so happened that the Japanese 19th Wing had sent all its reserves into battle, hoping to give it a go and finally crush the defenders on the opposite side.
Unexpectedly, the national army still had a "reserve", such a powerful reserve, the 306th regiment, under the order of the commander of Qiu Weida, launched an attack from behind the Japanese army and attacked with all its might.
In this way, the troops behind the Japanese army were in chaos, and the attacking troops in front of them were also shaken, while the 305th Regiment of the National Army saw vitality in a desperate place, and its morale was greatly boosted, and the 305th and 306th regiments attacked at both ends and defeated the enemy in one fell swoop.
The 19th Wing of the Japanese Army could no longer support it, and retreated more than ten miles in one fell swoop, until it retreated to Tong'an Town and Hushu Pass, and then it could be regarded as stopping.
The 305th Regiment and the 306th Regiment met on the victorious position, and there was jubilation, and the three dogs took the brothers of the fellow villagers to find the cow, the cow with a scumbag on his face, looking at these brothers who thought about it day and night, he was speechless, and tears flowed.
Then, one by one, they hugged each other, hugged them fiercely, and even beat them a few times with their fists, but they couldn't speak, and everyone was the same, especially the big potato, the tall man, actually cried like a child.
The three dogs all thought that everyone was going to die here this time, but unfortunately they didn't see the cow, but they didn't expect that they could survive and see the cow.
There is nothing more fortunate than this, to be able to survive in a desperate situation, and to be able to fight side by side with your brothers, what could be more fortunate than this? Everyone sat down to eat together, and kept talking about their experiences after parting.
