At this time, the Japanese tank squadron still had eight Type 89 tanks, the second tank squadron still had 12 Type 89 tanks, the third tank squadron also had seven Type 95 tanks, and the tank wing headquarters still had four Type 97 tanks directly under it, and the number of Japanese tanks still had 31.

Except for the first company of the armored battalion, which lost six Type 95 tanks, the tanks of the second armored company and the third armored company did not suffer any losses, and the armored battalion still had 43 tanks, and the armored battalion headquarters and the machine infantry battalion headquarters both had directly subordinate armored vehicle units.

Shusuke Takei was very concerned about the armored units of the Sixth Army Division, and he knew that most of the armored units of the Sixth Army Division were captured Japanese tanks and armored vehicles.

However, Takei Shusuke would never have thought that through Sun Weiguo's efforts, the armored troops of the Sixth Army Division no longer relied on the use of captured Japanese tanks and armored vehicles, and the armored battalion units had captured Japanese tanks, as well as Soviet-style tanks supplemented by the chairman of the committee and British tanks purchased from abroad.

The Japanese tank forces were quickly assembled, and the three captains of the tank squadron looked at Shusuke Takei one after another, and their faces showed solemn expressions.

The search unit of the 3rd Tank Squadron was attacked by the Shina tank unit in Xizhuang Village, and the three tank squadron leaders knew very well that the main force of the Chinese tank force was likely to be assembled in Xizhuang Village.

"Wing Commander, the number of tank troops in China will not be too much, although we have lost a number of tanks, but now that the main force of our wing has been killed, we will definitely be able to annihilate all the tank troops in China, not to mention that we still have artillery units to help in the battle, and the tanks in China are definitely not our opponents."

"Now the Zhina troops want to keep Shimenkou Town, but they are not capable of breaking through our defense line, they can only carry out sneak attacks and harass us, Wing Commander, we will immediately kill Xizhuang Village, we will definitely be able to annihilate the Zhina tank troops, they will definitely not be our opponents."

"Wing Commander, there must be no hesitation now, we will start attacking now, otherwise the Chinese tank troops will all be withdrawn, and the Chinese tank troops will definitely not dare to have a decisive battle with us, once they miss this opportunity, if they want to annihilate them again, I am afraid it will be difficult to have a chance."

The three tank captain squadron leaders were eager to fight, and they looked at Shusuke Takei with expectant expressions.

They were eager to immediately and quickly go to Xizhuang Village, and then annihilate all the Chinese tank troops in Xizhuang Village.

In the opinion of these three tank captains, the main force of the Chinese tank force must have gathered in Xizhuang Village.

Takei Shusuke held the binoculars and glanced in the direction of Xizhuang Village, he had a solemn expression on his face, he fell into hesitation for a while, he didn't know if he should give the order to attack immediately, he gathered his troops, just wanted to prepare for defense, he had the idea of attacking Xizhuang Village, but this idea was only a flash.

The tank wing and the armored battalion engaged the troops, and they destroyed six Type 95 tanks, but also paid the price of nine tanks themselves.

Takei Shusuke was worried that if his troops attacked now, even if they could completely annihilate the armored battalion troops, their losses would definitely be very large.

"Wing Commander, the artillery unit has finished the shelling, Your Excellency the Brigade Commander has sent a telegram that there is a tank unit in Xizhuang Village withdrawing, and the brigade commander has ordered us to strictly guard the position in Zaoling Village and not to attack without authorization.

Shusuke Takei did not give the order to attack for a long time, and at this time, the chief of staff of the tank wing hurriedly came to report.

Yin Jinshan wanted to use the first armored company to attract the Japanese tank troops to attack, and then assemble the main force of the armored battalion to attack the main force of the Japanese tank wing.

However, Major General Nagunomura Momoyo, the commander of the 1st Brigade of the Mixed Battle, who had been watching the battle, saw through the plan of the 6th Cavalry Regiment at a glance, and Kunomura Momoyo immediately sent a telegram to contact the tank wing and ordered the tank wing to hold the position in Zaoling Village and not attack without authorization.

The captains of the three tank squadrons of the Japanese army wanted to attack, but this telegram from Momoyo Kunomura completely dispelled their thoughts.

"Squadrons are ready to defend and beware of attacks by tank troops." Shusuke Takei immediately gave the order.

At this time, Xizhuang Village had fallen into a sea of fire, and after a shelling by the Japanese artillery wing, Xizhuang Village became a flat land.

Fortunately, the ambush troops such as the 1st Armored Company and the Infantry Battalion were evacuated in time, otherwise they would have been attacked by Japanese artillery.

The main force of the armored battalion led by Sun Weiguo and Yin Jinshan was still on standby, and they were waiting for the Japanese tank troops to attack.

However, after a full forty minutes, the Japanese tank unit in Zaoling Village still did not have any intention of attacking, and Sun Weiguo realized that Yin Jinshan's plan was likely to have been detected by the Japanese army.

Looking at the time, it was almost twelve o'clock in the night, and Sun Weiguo immediately ordered all troops to evacuate their positions and move to a safe place.

Xinzhuang Village, east of Shimen Town.

In the regimental headquarters of the Sixth Cavalry Regiment, three battalion-level officers of the Sixth Cavalry Regiment came to the regimental headquarters one after another, and their expressions on their faces were not very good.

Yin Jinshan and other regimental leaders showed even more frustrated expressions on their faces, they did not expect that the Japanese troops would not be hit.

"The troops still have some progress, didn't the first armored company destroy five tanks of the little devils? This kind of record is already very good, don't be discouraged, I emphasized very early on that the little devils are not tofu scum, and the devil officers will not always be fooled, they will also accumulate lessons, if we blindly use the same tactics, sooner or later we will suffer. ”

Sun Weiguo tapped the table lightly, his eyes looked at the officers, and he said in a serious tone.

The officers looked at Sun Weiguo, and they felt that only Sun Weiguo could turn the tide of the battle now.

"Send a telegram to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army and report on our situation here, Fu Tao, commander of the new Second Brigade, commanded the independent regiment (the first battalion, the third battalion, the seventh battalion), the third battalion of the artillery regiment, the reconnaissance company of the brigade headquarters, the guard company, the engineer company, and the artillery battalion to Linzhang County, responsible for the operation of clearing the puppet army bandits in southern Hebei and northern Henan, and the rest of the departments were immediately commanded by Chief of Staff Zhao Lerong to return to Pingding County."

"Wang Tieniu's nameless regiment, Qin Xianliang's first regiment, the sixth cavalry regiment, and the artillery regiment quickly moved closer to Pingding County. The first regiment of the first regiment was assembled in Zhixi Town, the town of Suoxuan and the sixth regiment of cavalry, the cavalry battalion was assembled in Baijing Town, Donghui Town, the artillery regiment set up an artillery position in Dongzhai Fushan, the headquarters of the Sixth Army Division was transferred to Baijing Town, and a front-line command post was set up in Xinzhuang Village. ”

Sun Weiguo looked at the map, and then he quickly began to give orders.

Momoyo of Kuno Village in Pingding County has started to do it, and Sun Weiguo will naturally not be beaten passively, this is not his style.
