"Don't scatter, after you keep the formation, keep a distance from the little devils!"

In the rickety armored car, after Bai Chongxi heard the order of the company commander, he quickly put the bullet on the chamber of the gun, and also aimed the muzzle of the gun at the battlefield hundreds of meters away, the only Japanese cavalry that could quickly maneuver.

The Seventh Company was an armored reconnaissance company, the forward unit of the Third Armored Division, and even the entire First Army. However, after hearing the gunfire and learning the news that the friendly troops were being surrounded by hundreds of Japanese infantry and attacking, they didn't think about it, but under the leadership of company commander Wei Mingxuan, they took out the small oil barrels carried in the car, filled up the tanks and armored vehicles of the whole company, and rushed to Neinanli, seven or eight miles away.

Seeing death and not saving is not the style of the Seventh Company, and fearing the enemy is not the style of the Seventh Company.

So, in the rhythm of "da-da-da", Bai Chongxi shot without hesitation. After many days of fighting life, he and his comrades-in-arms had already run in an extraordinary tacit understanding, just after hitting two cartridge belts and just inserting the third cartridge belt, dozens of Japanese cavalry and war horse corpses had already lay in the snow in front of him.

The Japanese cavalry was caught off guard, although they were beaten and suffered many losses, but after they were only stunned, the few Japanese cavalry left gritted their teeth and began to charge the steel monsters that attacked them behind them. Their performance can be described as heroic, but unfortunately, in the face of the gap of the times, their actions are doomed to failure. In just an instant, the Japanese cavalry was completely lost to the roaring machine guns and the rumbling of tank guns.

At this time, on the position on the side of the Japanese army, King Kunihiko of Kurenomiya looked at the abrupt changes that took place on the battlefield and his eyes were split. In the face of the enemy army from behind, although the subordinates spontaneously occupied the terrain and fought back fiercely, they were seriously lacking heavy weapons and defensive measures, and in the face of these ironclad chariots that suddenly burst out like an iron wall, marching together, the bullets fired out could not bring any damage except for the clanging of the steel plates on their bodies. On the contrary, the other side has been raining bullets composed of machine guns and artillery, constantly beating the soldiers into a sieve.

King Kunihiko of Kurenomiya knelt on the ground and stared blankly at the scene in front of him. The army was tired, demoralized, and suffered from two sides, even if the Japanese army was stubborn, it had to collapse at this time. First one or two people, then groups of three or five, but in a short time, the Japanese troops on the entire position began to retreat in a big way.

The battlefield changed so quickly that after only a few moments, the end seemed to have been born.

"Miyamoto-kun, I'm here to ask you, you must break through. We don't have many troops left, you break through with the last few men, and I will be here to fight you to the death! King Kunihiko of Kurenomiya was infinitely desolate in his heart, and after glancing at the battlefield, he said to Miyamoto Shaosa, who had retreated and was standing beside him to gather the remnants and prepare for the final struggle.

Miyamoto was shocked when he heard this, King Kunihiko was born in the royal family and was a chief, how could he leave him here? Hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, please lead the soldiers to break through!" ”

"Miyamoto-kun ......"

"Your Excellency, please don't say much. It is an honor to be able to fight side by side with you for many years, and if you can successfully break through, I hope you can help me take care of my family, please! ”

King Kunihiko of Kurenomiya raised his head and looked at the subordinate in front of him who had followed him for many years, and the whole person seemed to have suddenly aged twenty years. I saw him say in a deep voice: "Miyamoto-kun, you and I have known each other for many years, and I didn't expect to say goodbye here today." If you can return to Japan, your family, leave it to me! ”

"Your Majesty the Emperor, onboard!" After shouting, Miyamoto Shaoza took a few soldiers and ran towards the front position without looking back. The rest of the Japanese army, under the leadership of King Kunihiko of Kurenomiya, silently began to break through in the direction of Pyongyang.

On the top of the hill, Wu Tailai, who drove the Japanese troops off the position, held a Type 08 semi-automatic rifle with a bayonet on it in his left hand, and covered the thigh with a bayonet pierced by the Japanese army in his right hand.

North Korea, Anju.

At this moment, in the military headquarters of the Eighteenth Army, Zhang Zuolin looked at the telegram in his hand and frowned slightly. Frankly speaking, Zhang Xiaohuai, commander of the theater of operations, personally rushed to the front line to command the First Army and the 18th Army to attack Pyongyang, which really brought him a lot of pressure.

In China's mixed officialdom, it is important to pay attention to origin, faction and backstage, and in the nascent Communist Party People's Army system, Zhang Zuolin is naturally rootless. Therefore, after the start of this war, Zhang Zuolin made up his mind, no matter what, he would lead his subordinate 18th Army to play some style, so that he could use this to enter the eyes of senior leaders, such as Xiao Mubai and others, and bring some help to the future development of the People's Army.

If it was really as originally thought, it would be not bad, but unfortunately, after the 18th Army crossed the Yalu River, its performance in Korea was slightly unsatisfactory. For most of the month, don't look at the countless battles between the 18th Army and the Japanese army, and along the way, they attacked cities and captured countless lands, but in fact, because Zhang Zuolin was more cautious in using his troops, he was stable and stable in tactics, and he took a steady and steady approach in tactics, but the number of people who annihilated the enemy was really small and pitiful. Because of this, when the First Army and the Eighteenth Army now advanced the front to the area with Pyongyang as the center and a radius of 50 miles, Zhang Zuolin's heart began to feel a little anxious.

Now that the battle of Pyongyang is about to start, this may be his only chance now. If you can't achieve the corresponding results, then after the Fourth Army and the Sixteenth Army also enter the DPRK one after another, the Eighteenth Army, which was replaced and returned to China, will never have a chance, then my career in the army may really stop at the major general in the end.

Zhang Zuolin was alone in the handover, but the other officers in the military department were not idle. Soon, with the communications staff officer who came in a hurry, Deputy Army Commander Wu Junsheng held a telegram in his hand, came to Zhang Zuolin's side and said: "Army Commander, the order of the theater command!" ”

When Zhang Zuolin heard this, he came back to his senses, and after he stood up, he took the message from Wu Junsheng's hand and looked at it. The content of the telegram was simple and clear, that is, he ordered his 18th Army to immediately move south, launch an offensive along the line of Chayejeong, Yonggang, and Liupuri, and complete the siege of Pyongyang City from the western front.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Zuolin also looked solemn, and hurriedly walked to the map hanging behind him to look at it. After a long time, after looking around left and right, he asked, "Where is the First Army, General Li Hongxiang's troops, where are they now?" ”

"Troops of the First Army!" The person who spoke was Xiao Yaonan, the chief of staff of the army, who was born in Beiyang and had really good military qualities. I saw him personally pick up his baton and point to a place dozens of miles east of Pyongyang and say: "According to the latest news, the First Division is now interspersed from Sinseongcheon to Baekwon-ri and Gangdong, and the military headquarters is attacking from Yinsan to Suncheon along with the Third Division. It's the second division, which is still hovering around Tokugawa! ”

"How fast is the First Army? Didn't they all stay in Tokugawa yesterday? Wu Junsheng's voice was marked with obvious shock.

"Yes! Not long ago, the advance company of the 54th Division was ambushed by the Japanese army in Shuncheon, and the 3rd Division's 'White Tiger Regiment' was relieved. When Xiao Yaonan heard this, he smiled bitterly in his heart.

What kind of unit is the First Army? It was recognized by the whole army as the first ace unit equipped with a large number of cars and motorcycles, and was called a mechanized unit. In terms of mobility and speed of marching, how can the traditional infantry division units be compared with them? Just like Huang Yuying's Third Armored Division, they can move nearly 100 kilometers in one day, and they can move with not only infantry, but also other divisional artillery groups, and even ammunition supplies. This is still in the case of difficult roads, if it is a plain area, I believe that the 3rd Panzer Division will march 150 kilometers in a day, or even more, it is very possible. And the distance from Tokugawa to Shinsei River is only sixty or seventy kilometers, and just such a small distance, for the First Army, it is really nothing.

Thinking of the recent rumors of the army's high-level in the middle of the army, the mechanization of the army, Xiao Yaonan couldn't help but feel a burst of emotion in his heart. Perhaps, after this war is over, it is really necessary for me to go to the newly built National Defense University and other military academies of the People's Army to further my studies.

Zhang Zuolin naturally didn't know what his chief of staff Xiao Yaonan was thinking at this moment. He kept staring at the map on the wall, and after thinking of the orders of the war zone and the current situation of the war, it only took a moment for him to understand the burden he was about to shoulder. That is, while launching a frontal attack with the First Army, it is also necessary to send effective troops to intersperse the pine forests and other areas behind Pyongyang City in a roundabout way to cut off the retreat of the Japanese troops in the city.

"Order, Zhang Zuoxiang, commander of the 52nd Division, immediately lead his troops south, capture Nampo, Songlin and other places, and hold the area until the victory of this Pyongyang campaign." The plan in his heart was decided, and Zhang Zuolin quickly issued an order: "In addition, order the 54th Division Sun Liechen's troops to move in the direction of Shun'an." ”

Although the southbound troops are related to the key to this battle and the honor and disgrace of the entire 18th Army, now, Zhang Zuolin can only choose to believe in his old brother. On the front of the 18th Army, the 52nd Division itself was not only the most advanced, but also the strongest in combat power. At this time, it seems that there is really no choice but it.
