Chapter 105: Brotherly Love (I)
Li Mo was three kilometers away from the battlefield, and hurriedly organized his team into a combat team, and then killed the main force of the Japanese army, one kilometer away from the Japanese trenches, Li Mo let his infantry regiments all get off the car, and each tank was followed by an infantry squad, and two or three three-wheeled motorcycles, such firepower to protect the tank, Li Mo did not believe that those Japanese death squads would rush to the side of the tank, even if the trenches were dense, it was impossible.
"Boom...... Boom...... Da Da ......"
The Japanese army's trenches are about eight lanes, about 1.5 kilometers deep, as soon as Li Mo's armored division arrives, Inaba Shiro is desperate, just the two infantry divisions of the Flying Eagle Legion, let himself only take human lives to strangle, now that the opponent's armored division has arrived, then his own troops will definitely not escape the end of annihilation. But Inaba Shiro will not surrender or give up resistance now, Inaba Shiro also has an important task, which is to drag the entire Flying Eagle Legion, create an opportunity for the four divisions and two detachments that rushed to reinforce the encirclement, and there are more than 10,000 people in his hands, several criss-crossing trenches, these are his own capital, even if he fights to the last person, he must hold on until the last second.
"Herald, tell all the officers and soldiers of the wing, that is, all the officers and soldiers of this division, that Commander-in-Chief Matsui Ishine has sent 120,000 troops to reinforce him, and ask you to fight to the end, desperately drag down the Flying Eagle Legion of China, and create conditions for reinforcements to surround the Flying Eagle Legion of China."
"Hi ......"
The herald and communications department hurriedly conveyed Inaba Shiro's order, Inaba Shiro has no mobile forces in his hands, and for the current battle situation, he can only withdraw the east wall and make up the west wall, the 47th Wing is deployed in the rear of the combat zone, and now it is ordered by Inaba Shiro to directly turn the muzzle of the gun to meet the assault of Li Mo's armored division.
……
Niu Wa and Lao Niu are in the 3rd Infantry Regiment of the Armored Division of the Flying Eagle Legion, this time their regiment's task is to block the attack of the 18th and 114th Divisions of the Japanese Army.
The trenches dug by the Flying Eagle Legion are very special, even if Lao Niu has been a soldier for more than ten years, he has never seen a trench can be dug like this, the trenches of Lao Niu and his regiment are dug like this, first with three armored vehicles and three large trucks strung together with wire ropes, and then ten iron plows are placed side by side, and the tail of the armored car in front is connected with wire ropes. The soil around Nanjing is not very hard, it is all mud, and there are no sandstone layers at all.
Several armored vehicles and trucks roared and pulled in front, and the all-steel plough, which was preset to be 70 centimeters deep, ploughed out a trench two meters wide and seventy centimeters deep directly on the ground with the movement of the vehicles in front, and the trench pulled out in this way was of course not a complete trench, only half of the soil in the trench was turned out of the trench, and there was still a lot of soil in the trench that was turned out of the trench that was not turned over by the plowshare, which required the soldiers to throw the dirt to the side facing the enemy. A trench seventy centimeters deep is at the edge of the trench built with the excavated earth, and a trench one meter four or five deep is completed, which is extremely fast.
Within three hours, the entire Third Infantry Regiment had set up a huge defensive position with a five-pointed star, and the trenches in the position were also horizontal and vertical, like a labyrinth. The advantage of this five-pointed star ring defensive position is that no matter which direction the enemy attacks, he will face crossfire. In the center of the five-pointed star ring defensive position, there is an artillery position made of steel sheds, which contains twelve 75mm howitzers, and the top of the steel canopy is wet earth up to two meters thick. There are also many cat ear holes in the defensive position, one is two or three meters away, and two steel plates are also installed inside, and one cat ear hole can accommodate five soldiers.
Regarding the layout of this defensive position, Li Mo personally experienced and practiced it during the Spanish Civil War, the ring defensive position is a very good position, but first of all, it must be able to resist the enemy's shelling, otherwise everything is equal to zero, if the soldiers are killed by the enemy's artillery, what do you use to defend.
The commander of the third regiment, Lieutenant Colonel Stein, is much older than Li Mo's qualifications, and there will be no phenomenon in the German army where a junior commander disobeys the command because of his high rank, otherwise Li Mo would not let Stein serve as the commander of his regiment.
As soon as Stein had set up his position, the reinforcements sent to him by Limer had also arrived, armored vehicles and tanks, which were good things, and could reinforce dangerous defensive areas at any time. It wasn't until after twelve o'clock in the afternoon, after Stein had eaten all the soldiers, that the two divisions of the Japanese army came into view.
The commander of the Japanese army also thought about it, they couldn't make a detour through here, this five-pointed star defensive position was thirty meters higher than other places, and there was artillery inside, as long as they dared to make a detour, the artillery inside would definitely chase them and bomb, not to mention that they didn't dare to put such a dangerous enemy on their back road, and pulling out this nail was their only choice.
The air forces of both sides did not come, and the Soviet Air Force had refused to continue to participate in the war at this time, because their lost planes were the heaviest among the three countries, and the Republic of China originally only had more than 30 aircraft, but now there are more than 20 left, and they are almost exhausted, and they will not come, the Flying Eagle of the Flying Eagle Legion has been fighting for several hours in a row, and the pilots are very tired, and the JU87 bomber group has not yet returned, is it possible to use fighters to attack the infantry? Obviously, it is not lost, not to mention that the devils of these two divisions have already brought enough anti-aircraft firepower, and the BF109 goes to strafe the enemy's infantry at a low altitude, which is likely to be shot down, and Rommel will not make such a loss-making deal.
All that remains is a formal contest between the two armies, and who will die will soon be decided by the outcome of the battle.
"Wow...... Whew......"
"Shelling, get into the anti-artillery hole." The first artillery attack of the little devil came very suddenly, all the artillery of the two divisions opened fire at the same time, and in an instant, countless gunpowder smoke rose in the five-pointed star defensive position, judging from the power of the shell explosion, the 105 gun used by the little devil and some other small-caliber cannons, the 105 gun said that he was powerful, and it was big, and it was small and small, mainly because of the soft soil, the power of the 105 gun was not small, and a pit more than two meters wide and half a meter deep was one shot.
Lao Niu's squad has been defending in the south, just facing the Japanese army, the sudden shelling of the Japanese army, even if Lao Niu, a veteran, is too late to greet his brother, Lao Niu heard the whistling of shells in the sky, and hurriedly shouted "Lie down." Before Lao Niu's words fell, the violent explosion of "boom" sounded around Lao Niu, and the soil raised by the explosion was denser than raindrops, and just one shell fell on the edge of the trench, which directly reimbursed the two soldiers in Lao Niu's class.
