Chapter 1177: The Decisive Battle of Kaesong (6)
Taro Taruto's army has not completely opened before it suffered a blow from Wang Jiazhu, the Japanese army at this time was panicked, where did they still have the heart to fight, plus Wang Jiazhu's cavalry was so strong, it was actually launching a frontal charge against the 18th Division!
Surprisingly, the commander of this cavalry went crazy, and all the Japanese generals burst out of their minds with such a sentence, generally speaking, an army, directly in front of the strongest troops, is the most difficult to gnaw, so the general raid or outflanking is from the flank of an army, or the ribs, this is the key position of an army, the easiest to get.
Today's Wang Jiazhu is the vanguard of the 18th Division, who will have such an idea, but at this time, Takamori Taro is suffering, in order to ensure that he is not disturbed by the cavalry, he put almost all the heavy machine guns on his left side to cover the safety of the left flank, and the artillery wing is placed in the back, trying to prevent the cavalry from pursuing behind, but the forward team at this time has no cover of heavy weapons.
Wang Jiazhu was attacking crookedly, the cavalry of the two brigades was too strong, the cavalry had just annihilated the 20th Division, and the momentum was in full swing, coupled with the desire for revenge, it was naturally an offensive tide, and the Japanese army's forward team was suppressed for a while.
When Taro Taro got the news of the cavalry sneak attack, his head buzzed, a few laps bigger, it's broken, these Chinese revolutionary army ****** never play cards according to the routine, I put the heavy machine gun on the flank for fear that the cavalry would sneak attack my flank, who knew that it was ****** to attack my forward, so don't you die?
Taro Taro Takamori didn't have time to think about it in detail, and shouted: "Someone, order the immediate mobilization of the heavy machine gun brigade, an urgent movement towards the forward, force the cavalry to me to retreat, the army continues to move forward, immediately send a telegram to Kodamama-kun, we are now under a sneak attack by the enemy, we are entangled to death, ask the main force for immediate support!" ”
The heavy machine guns on Taro Taro's flank had not yet arrived and moved to the forward position, and the attack on the flank and self-propelled artillery battalions was also launched at the same time, and dozens of heavy guns fired together, pouring shells onto the flank positions of the Japanese army!
Takamori Taro has a big head now, and they don't attack behind their backs, but they actually hit the front army first, and then hit the flanks, these two-pole commanders are all ****** crazy!
Taro Takamori had to mobilize the artillery wing and launched an attack on the self-propelled artillery regiment!
The two sides fought at the front of the position of the 18th Division, and Takamori Taro urgently deployed a large army to fully respond to the cavalry raid, and the two sides fell into a stalemate again in a short time!
However, less than an hour has passed, and the Japanese troops in the rear have become a mess!
This time it was not the cavalry that attacked, but the infantry!
The two infantry divisions commanded by Cai Yi, the third division and the fourth division arrived at the same time, and the two artillery regiments were put into the battle at the first time, hundreds of artillery pieces launched a fierce offensive together, and tens of thousands of infantry were pressed up closely. Not at all on an order of magnitude.
Takamori Taro is completely desperate.,It's over.,It's over! How did the two revolutionary divisions in the north catch up so quickly?
Now facing the siege of one cavalry division and two infantry divisions, it is almost impossible to break through again! I blame myself for being reluctant to carry a large number of weapons in front of me, delaying a lot of time, I knew that I didn't want anything, and I had to withdraw the army quickly!
Takamori gritted his teeth and commanded the 18th Division to hold the position to the death, waiting for Gentaro Kodama's rescue!
Kaejo, Kodama Gentaro at this time has already received information from Taro Takamori, but rescue? Now that he only has two divisions, even if all his troops are put into the rescue, he may not be able to be someone's opponent!
Watanabe, who was on the side, said urgently: "Kodamama-kun, we can't hesitate, taking advantage of the fact that the Chinese Revolutionary Army can't come up for the time being, we must march quickly towards Linqing now, the faster the better, we must jump out of the big encirclement of Kaesong in the shortest possible time, no matter how late, all our divisions will not be able to get out!" ”
However, Canghe Jingnai didn't see it that way, and replied: "Kodama Jun, we must rush to the aid of the 18th Division, although the 18th Division is surrounded now, but they are full divisions, and there is no shortage of weapons and baggage, in a short period of time, the Chinese Revolutionary Army can't eat them, we still have time to rush to help, when the time comes, the three divisions will assemble, and then think about the eastern breakthrough, our grasp of breaking through is greater!" ”
Kodama Gentaro frowned, now it is a complete dilemma, no matter how he acts, there will be a huge risk, Watanabe on the side said urgently: "Kodama Jun, we can't hesitate, you must know that Xu Huaijin has not much time left for us, the 18th Division is facing the siege of three divisions, even if we rescue it, I am afraid that more than half of the casualties will be killed, and how do we know if they have ambushed the ambush to stop us, a lesson from the past, and a division of the future!" ”
Kodama Gentaro's heart jumped, and he said fiercely: "Order, the two divisions will be drawn immediately, and they will move closer to the direction of Linqing with all their might, you must be fast!" ”
Kurawa Keina said urgently: "Kodamama-kun......"
Kodama Gentaro replied: "Kurawa-kun, don't say it again, now is not the time to be reckless, my biggest task now is to take these two divisions to withdraw from Korea safely, after the fact, I will give an explanation to the empire and His Majesty the Emperor, now the withdrawal has become the only way out, if we rescue Takamori Taro, then the final result will definitely be surrounded and annihilated by Xu Huaijin, we definitely can't afford to take such a risk!" ”
Kura and Keina were still about to speak, and Kodama Gentaro shouted: "Okay, Kurawa-kun, carry out the order!" ”
At this time, Gentaro Kodama no longer had the determination to confront Xu Huaijin again, and quickly leading the remnants to escape from North Korea was the only way out!
However, as soon as the order was given, the 18th Division in the northwest of Kaesong was completely explained, and Taro Taro, who could not wait for reinforcements, walked into despair step by step.
At the foot of Songyue Mountain, Xu Huaijin at this time also suddenly got the news that three divisions were besieging the 18th Division, and the main force of the Japanese army was trying to retreat eastward.
Xu Huaijin was shocked, what the hell is going on?
Without their own orders, how could they suddenly launch a siege of the 18th Division? Monkey business!
Xu Huaijin kicked over the table in front of him on the spot!
