Chapter 1480: Iron Hammer
In the southwest corner of Langfang City, Liu Xianwei walked out of the ruins with an AK47 on his shoulder, shook his head and shook off the dust on his head, spat on the ground again, and said in a cruel voice: "Herald, immediately order each regiment to fight separately and let the enemy in to fight." ”
"Yes, Master!" Several soldiers responded with a bang, and then the soldiers rushed away in several directions.
Under this kind of carpet bombing, the telephone lines have long been cut off, the enemy's electronic jamming vehicles are still working, walkie-talkies and radio stations have all failed, and communication can only be passed on by word of mouth.
"Division, if we put the enemy in, we won't be able to accept the airdrop, and we won't be able to call in the air force for support, do you want to think about it again?" Chief of Staff Wang Siqi shouted.
"I can't care so much, if I continue to carry it to the death, the enemy will soon have a second round of bombardment, and I can only fight with them in street battles."
In the case of a serious lack of supporting firepower, and the enemy's firepower was fierce, Liu Xianwei was not wrong in choosing to fight street battles with the enemy, street fighting is also the strength of the airborne division, only in this way can they have the possibility of holding out until the night, and they must survive before they can consider anything else.
They didn't know that the Baxian defense line had broken through, and several reinforcements were already rushing in.
Of course, even if it is the fastest helicopter gunship, from assembling and preparing to flying hundreds of miles, the time in between will be an hour at the earliest, and the key is whether the airborne division can hold out until the arrival of reinforcements.
The establishment of the airborne division is more than 16,000, and the battle of Cangzhou has already lost more than 2,000, and before it has time to replenish, it has arrived in Langfang again, and after nearly two days of fierce fighting, the casualties have approached 70 percent, and it is estimated that less than 6,000 of the more than 14,000 soldiers are left so far.
The vast majority of them died under enemy fire, which was probably the worst, most cruel, and most humiliating battle since the establishment of the airborne division.
Just when the enemy launched an attack on all fronts, to the east of Langfang City, the Kamikaze Airborne Brigade of the Island Army was marching rapidly in the direction of Tangshan.
The captain of the brigade, Tanaka Jiji, looked at the soldiers of the island army who were pouring into Langfang City with a reluctant expression, and saw that the annihilation of the airborne division of the national army was in the next second, but the general headquarters issued two orders in a row, asking them to quickly withdraw from the battlefield in the direction of Tangshan.
A heart-wrenching killing, a great merit is in front of him, but he misses himself, which makes Tanaka Jiji how willing.
"Let's go, Captain, the car is already waiting for us on the road ahead, this group of remnants of the defeated soldiers will be left to the Second Guards Division to clean up, sooner or later we will kill back." A young officer reassured.
Tanaka Jijiichi gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, turned around and quickly followed the troops.
He never dreamed that if he was an hour late, he wouldn't even have a chance to escape, and Okamura Ninji saved their lives.
Enemies poured in from all directions, and Langfang City was already in a pot of porridge.
Street fighting is a hand-to-hand battle, in which the enemy and the enemy are mixed, and the dogs and teeth are wrong, cruel and bloody.
The troops are almost divided into squads and platoons, and what they fight for is the quality of individual soldiers and the adaptability of grassroots commanders.
Of course, the weapon is definitely a big advantage, such as the island army in front of them, they also have tanks, armored vehicles and even helicopters to open the way, which is undoubtedly much stronger than the airborne division.
To the north of the city, two Soviet-style T34-76 medium tanks of the Island Army roared forward along the railway line, followed closely by about a small group of infantry, which was cautiously advancing forward.
This is the entrance to the city, and not far ahead is the railway station, and the railway is full of ruined buildings on both sides, scattered and scattered, and the roadbed with a wide view is also full of craters, and everything looks dangerous, so even the tanks are cautious.
Suddenly, without warning, a series of explosions sounded from the rear of the tank, and the little devil was blown up into a mess, and the undead immediately looked for cover, and the tank in front also stopped, turning the turret to look around for a target.
Under normal circumstances, the place where the tank has been run over is absolutely safe, even the ground and mines have been crushed, but the airborne division is also equipped with remote-controlled bombs, they can't destroy the tank, but the bombing of the infantry is just right, and the gravel on the roadbed explodes more powerful than usual, and the lethality is stronger, so it is best to deal with this kind of infantry that relies on tank cover.
Just when the enemy was in a panic, five or six soldiers in camouflage combat uniforms stood almost simultaneously in the ruins and craters in front and on the left and right flanks, and they all carried bazookas on their shoulders without exception, and fired directly at the tanks in front.
After a few muffled sounds, six streams of fire rushed straight at the enemy tanks, no more, no less, three each.
"Boom, boom!"
Explosions rang out, 88 mm armor-piercing shells easily penetrated the main body of the tank, and the powerful shock wave blew up steel fragments wildly, and the two tanks were directly turned into scrap metal, one of which was even cut in half of the turret.
As the war progressed, all kinds of high-tech weapons emerged one after another, and the armor of tanks became thicker and thicker, and the speed of weapon renewal naturally became faster and faster.
Jiang Haoran, who is very forward-looking, has undoubtedly done a better job than anyone else in this regard, and the bazooka in the hands of the airborne division is no longer the 60 rocket launcher that was simple and has poor firepower, but an 88mm rocket launcher with a magnetomotor type and an optical sight.
The four-pound armor-piercing projectile was fired, with an effective range of 200 meters, and the armor-piercing thickness reached a terrifying 280 meters, almost twice as high as the 150 millimeters of the German iron fist.
So, it has a name that is louder than "Iron Fist" - Iron Hammer.
To get back to the point, at the moment when the tank was lying on its stomach, countless soldiers wearing grass-green camouflage combat uniforms and holding Ak47s suddenly appeared in the dilapidated ruins on both sides of the railway, and the bullets rained down.
The gunfire stopped, the officers and men of the airborne division quickly shifted their positions, and soon disappeared again, if it were not for the fact that the wreckage of the two tanks on the railway was still burning, and there were dozens of corpses in the rear, as if nothing had happened just now.
Of course, the offensive of the island army will not stop there, in fact, it is only a small force exploring the way just now, and the large-scale offensive has not yet begun.
A short time later, the roar of a machine was heard in mid-air, and a head wearing a steel helmet emerged from the ruins, glanced at the outside, and then roared, "Stinger ready!" ”
There was no human figure in sight, only the sound of the rope and the pull of the bolt and the loading of ammunition.
In mid-air, more than a dozen helicopter gunships showed their postures, and the plaster flags on both sides of the fuselage were faintly visible.
"Woohoo!"
The enemy helicopter gunship opened fire, and the rocket nests hanging from the short wings began to rain out wildly*,
"Boom, boom!"
The position where the airborne division had just been located immediately turned into a sea of fire.
But in the ruins at the far end of the sea of fire, countless tall figures suddenly appeared, and on the shoulder-mounted weapons, one after another spewed out of the fire, straight to the island army helicopter.
"Boom, boom!"
