Chapter 1432: The Moon is Black and the Wind is High
Although the battle in Dongnan County has ended, the war is still going on in an area of hundreds of miles from Dongnan County to the west to the Yellow River and east to the Bohai Sea, including Yanshan, Haixing, Qingyun, and Huimin counties.
The withdrawal of the 52nd Army of the Island Army means that they have given up rescue to the enemy in the encirclement, and it is estimated that more than 100,000 people of the Island Army in the middle and Haixing directions have all entered the encirclement.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, the national army began a comprehensive encirclement and suppression overnight.
The two troops of Wang Linji and Li Mo'an had already arrived at their destination before the evening and engaged the enemy's rear line of defense, both of which were rushing for revenge, and as soon as they came up, they launched a frenzied attack on the enemy, and in less than an hour the enemy's defense line was shattered.
And this was the beginning, and then Sun Lianzhong's two army groups arrived and launched a stormy attack on the enemy.
After an afternoon of breaking through, the island army's physical energy consumption was quite large, and the ammunition consumption was close to the critical point of cutting off supply, and the fuel was all exhausted, and more than 100 tanks were completely turned into decorations, and there was not much suspense in the battle.
Cangzhou direction.
Since the end of the battle of Southeast County, the island army immediately gave up the frontal attack on Cangzhou, unable to cut off the logistics of the national army, the island army knew that it was no longer able to recapture Cangzhou from the hands of the national army, it was better to retreat and quickly build the Tianjin defense line to keep the last gateway to Beiping.
Chu Zhongtian did not pursue it either, and immediately concentrated his forces to deal with the enemy in Haixing in the rear.
The left army of the island army has a tank division and an infantry division, although there is basically no loss, but it is also troubled by logistics, plus the special operations division and the airborne division are all first-class elites of the national army, and there is Yang Changshun's new battle leopard tank division, and the night combat ability is unmatched.
Originally, it was expected that the navy would at least provide fire support, but after night, the sky was completely owned by the national air force, and the island navy was afraid to avoid it, where would it dare to step forward, so there was only a dead end waiting for the enemy's army on the left.
At midnight that night, Hanji Bridge.
More than a dozen strong lights illuminated both sides of the Hanji River as if it were daylight, and the Zhouqiao troops were making every effort to repair the bridge destroyed by the enemy, because all the steel and materials had to be re-transported from the rear, which delayed a lot of time, so it has not been completed until now.
The Nanshan Independent Army is a fully mechanized unit, and there are several tank divisions in the front, and the consumption of fuel and ammunition is very alarming, and the battle in the afternoon has almost exhausted all their reserves, and the troops urgently need to be replenished.
Without supplies, the troops will not be able to move at all, and who knows if the island army will make a comeback again, so if the supplies are not available, the threat of the troops cannot be completely lifted.
The Hanji Bridge was bombed, and all the supplies were hoarded on the West Bank, and the car fleet certainly could not wait for a long time, and had to return to Texas to continue transportation.
In the afternoon, in a small mountain col a few hundred meters north of the west bank of the Hanji Bridge, dozens of bulldozers urgently transferred from work at the same time, opened up a large area of flat land, and temporarily built a material transfer station, where all the materials on hundreds of cars were dropped.
In the small col of several thousand square meters, all kinds of materials are stacked in different categories, piled up into small mountain bags, which are covered with strict camouflage.
Although it is far behind the enemy line far from the battlefield, the level of protection is not low at all, a row of barbed wire fences has been erected on the periphery, three layers of open posts and secret posts, there is a circular sand barrier every mile, an Erlikon Gaoping dual-purpose machine gun, two Czech light machine guns, with a squad of soldiers, and a searchlight in the sand barrier keeps turning, and the wind and grass can be seen clearly from a distance of several hundred meters.
Moreover, there are mobile posts set up inside, and the soldiers of a company are divided into nine squads to patrol back and forth in the designated area, and this level of protection is absolutely of a high standard.
Although the national army is not short of all kinds of materials, transporting materials to the front line is a huge project, and often the materials cannot be delivered on time, which will not only affect the normal progress of the troops at the front, but will also seriously affect their combat effectiveness.
But what people didn't expect was that even if the national army was so careful to take precautions, it was still remembered by the island army, and it was the island army's wolf-killing special combat team with bad intentions.
Yoshikawa was unwilling to return in vain on his first mission, he had eagerly hoped to set foot on Chinese soil, with the dream of avenging his brother and fighting with the Snow Wolf Special Combat Team and making contributions to the "Holy War" of the Empire, he finally came, and all the things that had accumulated in his chest and abdomen for a long time were finally within reach at this moment, how could he evacuate here.
According to the description of the bridge bombing team members and the intuitive inference after the Hanji Bridge was bombed, Yoshikawa could have imagined that there would be a huge material transfer station on the west bank of the Hanji River, so his first reaction was to decide to start from here.
No matter how far the battle in front of you goes, the army's supplies directly affect the course and outcome of the campaign, which is definitely the most painful blow to the national army, and Yoshikawa is extremely excited to think about it.
The wolf-slaying special combat team is directly under the command of the dispatch army, he does not need to listen to the orders of the 52nd Army, and the 52nd Army only advises them to evacuate, from the moment after the airborne, all the actions of the team are under his control, and there are no restrictions on the action.
The moon is dark and the wind is high.
Yoshikawa led his team members to the north for dozens of miles, and then went straight to the left into the Hanji River.
Although the national army has arranged a defensive line on both sides of the Hanji River, it is absolutely impossible to extend it for dozens of miles, and the Hanji River is nothing more than an artificial river about 50 meters wide, and in addition, it is already the dry season in winter, and the water flow is not rapid and the water surface is not wide, and armed swimming is simply a piece of cake for the specially trained troops.
More than 100 people took advantage of the cover of night to easily cross the river, and then went straight to the transfer station of the national army's supplies.
By midnight they had reached their destination, and with little need for reconnaissance, searchlights and rings of sand high up in the darkness of the night pointed them in the way.
Of course, it was impossible to attack with such a small number of troops, and more than a hundred people were prostrate on the ground, wriggling forward on the ground like maggots, and the auspicious clothes on their bodies were their best camouflage.
Because of the sharp reduction of labor force caused by the war, a large amount of land is idle, and in winter, the yellow earth is full of withered or withering herbaceous plants, and the gilly suit can blend well with them, even if the searchlight shines through, as long as you bury your head and stop moving, it is basically difficult to detect their existence.
More than a hundred people were biting daggers painted with army green anti-reflective paint in their mouths, and they squirmed forward cautiously without making a sound, and the sentries in front of them were faintly visible.
