Chapter 474 is simply a defeat
"Da Da Da!" The tank machine gun continued to fire, and bullets hit the back of the devil soldiers, and more than a dozen devil soldiers died on the spot!
Fourteen armored vehicles quickly launched an attack along the flanks of the Japanese troops, the first company of the first battalion of the first regiment and the second company were deployed on the left side, the second company of the special service battalion and the third company of the first battalion of the first regiment were deployed in the rear.
The machine gun company of the 1st Battalion suffered heavy losses in Xiyang County, and at this time, three 60mm mortars directly under each company and three Makqin heavy machine guns directly under each company were responsible for covering in the rear.
Xiao Zhiwei, deputy commander of the armored battalion, was in a Type 92 armored car, and he personally controlled a heavy machine gun and fired at the devil soldiers.
One bullet after another was fired accurately by him, and a ghost soldier who appeared in Xiao Zhiwei's sight began to fall to the ground.
More than 300 devil soldiers suffered more than 50 casualties in an instant, and the faces of the two captains and squadron leaders turned pale, and they realized that their troops were trapped in a siege.
The two captains reacted very quickly, they immediately abandoned the frontal attack, and quickly broke through in the direction of the main force of the brigade.
At this time, the troops of the Chinese and Japanese sides were mixed together, and the armored battalion, the first battalion of the first regiment, and the special service battalion were like three sharp swords, stabbing at the Japanese army fiercely.
Especially the tanks and armored vehicles of the armored battalion, they were like fierce monsters, quickly moving towards the front, fourteen armored vehicles can be said to have made a great contribution, they successfully cut off the idea of the Japanese troops to break through to both sides, at this time the Japanese troops were oppressed, and could only continue to advance to the front.
"Quick, set up the heavy machine gun and give me a hard shot."
Dai Yuxuan, who was hiding in the crater, immediately observed after the Japanese shells stopped firing, and saw that the devil soldiers were driven towards him by the armored battalion and other troops, and Dai Yuxuan immediately shouted.
The three Maxim heavy machine guns, which were also hiding in the crater, were quickly set up, and the shooters began to fire point-blanks, one bullet after another aimed at the Japanese with precision.
"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the 3rd and 4th Squads of the 1st Brigade have been attacked by the Chinese troops, and they are in a dangerous situation."
"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the Araki Brigade that went to Kashiwai Town was attacked by the Shina troops, and the two sides are currently engaged in a fierce battle."
The cavalry of the cavalry team kept reporting the situation to Kunomura Momoyo, and Kunomura Momoyo, who was riding on a war horse, showed a slightly shocked expression on his face.
But soon Kunomura Momoyo calmed down, and he immediately ordered Morikawa Nakasa to reinforce with the main force of the armored detachment, and at the same time he ordered the rest of the first brigade to attack with the armored detachment, and the third brigade quickly detoured from the left side, and the Araki brigade, which was sent by Kunomura Momoyo to Kashiwai Town, was also ordered by him to quickly move closer to the main force of the brigade.
When the troops were attacked by the Chinese troops, Kunomura Momoyo realized that the main force of Sun Weiguo's new 2nd Brigade should be deployed in Binh Dinh County.
While realizing this, Kunomura Momoyo did not dare to continue to divide his troops, he was worried that his troops would be broken by Sun Weiguo's troops individually.
Six Type 95 tanks and 24 armored vehicles with more than 600 devil soldiers quickly began to reinforce the front, and the three mountain artillery squadrons and two field artillery squadrons of the artillery detachment also quickly began to set up artillery positions, the cavalry team began to continue to carry out reconnaissance, and the artillery officers quickly observed through the artillery mirror.
THE ARTILLERY DETACHMENT OF THE 1ST BRIGADE OF THE MELEE HAS AN ESTABLISHMENT OF FIVE ARTILLERY SQUADRONS, OF WHICH THREE MOUNTAIN ARTILLERY SQUADRONS ARE EQUIPPED WITH 12 TYPE 94 75MM MOUNTAIN GUNS, WHICH HAVE A RANGE OF 8,300 METERS, AND TWO FIELD ARTILLERY SQUADRONS ARE EQUIPPED WITH MEIJI 38 TYPE 75MM FIELD GUNS AND MEIJI TYPE 38 105MM FIELD GUNS RESPECTIVELY.
THE FIRING RANGE OF THESE TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF FIELD ARTILLERY IS MORE THAN 10,000 METERS, ESPECIALLY THE MEIJI 38 TYPE 75MM FIELD ARTILLERY, WHICH HAS A FIRING RANGE OF 11,000 KILOMETERS!
The equipment of the 1st Mixed Combat Brigade can be described as very well-equipped, and Kunomura Momoyo also has great confidence in this, and he feels that he will definitely be able to rely on the 1st Mixed Combat Brigade to defeat Sun Weiguo's troops.
The Japanese artillery officers began to offer firing through the artillery mirrors, and the guns began to adjust their angles.
At the same time, behind the Japanese artillery position, a hot air balloon began to rise, which was the Japanese artillery observation hot air balloon, and the Japanese artillery officers would ride the hot air balloon to observe the deployment of nearby Chinese troops and provide accurate shooting for the artillery units.
WITH A "BOOM", A GRENADE HIT THREE 60MM MORTARS, AND AS THE SHELLS EXPLODED, THESE THREE MORTARS WERE KILLED ON THE SPOT, ALONG WITH A DOZEN ARTILLERY PIECES.
When the three Maxim heavy machine gun shooters saw this, they realized that their location had been exposed.
The fighters immediately tallied their heavy machine guns, but before they could move, Japanese shells attacked.
More than a dozen marksmen, sub-shooters, and ammunition men fell in pools of blood, and three Maxim heavy machine guns were blown to scrap metal.
"Boom", a grenade hit a Type 91 armored car directly, this armored car was directly destroyed, and as the armored car exploded, more than a dozen Chinese and Japanese soldiers were affected.
The Japanese artillerymen fired incessantly, attacking armored vehicles and tanks, as well as the infantry at the rear.
Twelve mountain cannons, eight field cannons became the Hades who urged their lives, and one after another shells attacked, and each cannonball would have great results.
Especially for the 105MM field artillery, the lethality of the shell explosion is very large, and after almost every shell explodes, there will be a squad of soldiers who pay the price of casualties.
"Battalion Commander Yin, you can't fight like this, if you continue to fight like this, we will eat these two squadrons, and our three battalions will have to be explained here."
Seeing that the casualties were getting bigger and bigger, Yue Wu immediately found Yin Jinshan, and he said in a solemn tone.
As soon as Yue Wu finished speaking, an artillery shell landed in the crater in front of him, and the Makqin heavy machine gun that was still firing immediately muted fire.
"Retreat!" Yin Jinshan immediately gave the order to retreat.
The divisions quickly disengaged from contact with the Japanese and quickly withdrew from the battlefield.
The surroundings gradually became silent, and the two Japanese infantry squadrons paid the price of more than 200 casualties, of which 123 were killed, two squadrons of light machine guns and grenadiers suffered heavy losses, two captains and squadron leaders also lost one, and three Type 89 tanks were all killed.
The Chinese troops paid the price of more than 150 casualties, of which 75 were killed, three mortars and three heavy machine guns of the first battalion were destroyed, and now the first battalion has only light machine guns and grenadiers, and the heavy machine gun company of the special service battalion also paid the price of two Makqin heavy machine guns.
The casualties of the armored battalion were minimal, they lost two armored vehicles.
On the surface, the troops of the New Second Brigade won the battle, but the troops of the New Second Brigade surrounded and annihilated the two squadrons of the Japanese army with the most elite armored battalion, special service battalion, and the first battalion, but did not completely annihilate them, and paid a lot of casualties and weapons attrition, which was simply a defeat for the New Second Brigade.
