The total strength of the North China garrison army is only more than 10,000, and the Eighth Division has more than 26,000 people. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As the saying goes: "People fight for a breath, Buddha fights for a pillar of incense", Nakamura Kotaro is a lieutenant general of the army, the commander of the Eighth Division, how noble his identity is, he was slapped in the face by Li Han, a little-known little person, if he still stays in Chengde and waits for Li Han to knock on the door, then this old face is still missing.

Nakamura Kotaro cooperates with him so much, of course Li Han welcomes him, even if Nakamura Kotaro doesn't come out, Li Han will think of something to transfer him out.

Chengde is not a small county town like Weichang and Fengning, as the provincial capital of Rehe, Chengde City is a veritable city with high walls and thick walls, coupled with the firepower of the Japanese army, if Chengde is really attacked, Li Han does not dare to think about how much he will pay.

Although the Security Army had a large artillery regiment, the Eighth Division also had a field artillery wing equipped with 48 cannons.

Although their brigade level equipment artillery is not comparable to one of their own divisions, the little devil has the support of aircraft.

Moreover, there is an airport in Chengde City, and if the battle is directly fought in Chengde, the little devil's plane can bomb its own artillery almost without interruption, which is obviously very unfavorable for the security army.

Now that Nakamura is out of the city, this battle will be much easier to fight, but with a big battle of tens of thousands of people, it is impossible to fight all in one place, so their battle line is still very long.

Li Han laid out his troops in an inverted shape, with the 145th Division on the right flank and the 1st Security Division on the left flank, but the 1st Security Division was not yet in place, so for the time being, the Independent Brigade was responsible for defending the left flank, and he himself took the troops directly under the military headquarters as the central army.

In a frontal field battle with a division of the Japanese army, Li Han also sweated by himself, but now there is a way to go to the dark.

Besides, he has been waiting for this day, and from the very beginning, the security army has been developing in the direction of fighting against a division of the Japanese army.

It would be better if he could deploy defenses at the pass of the Great Wall, and with the topography of the Great Wall, he could also fight a battle of the Great Wall with the Eighth Division.

But Li Han just thought about it, even if Song Zheyuan agreed, he didn't dare to fight with the Eighth Division on the Great Wall, there are more than 10,000 little devils in Beiping, Tianjin and other cities, if they give themselves a kick from behind, then their troops will not have to collapse directly.

In addition to the trenches excavated by the soldiers through civil engineering, Li Han also used a large amount of steel and cement to reinforce the fire strike points, anti-artillery shelters and bomb shelters.

After more than a year of development in Chahar, he is now a rich man, and if it weren't for the lack of time, Li Han would have planned to build his hundred and ten pillboxes and other permanent fortifications.

Although the position was built very strongly, Li Han did not intend to hold the position, Rehe, like Chahar, is also a vast and sparsely populated area, such a geographical location is most suitable for destroying the enemy in the movement, and in the face of the Japanese army's air-ground attack, the pressure on the security army to hold the position is very great.

However, you can't stop it, don't block the little devils in one place, tens of thousands of little devils chase after you to fight, so how can you annihilate the enemy in the movement, the Japanese army's mobility ability is much stronger than that of the security army.

A year ago, when the Fourth Wing was fighting against the Chahar Allied Army, it was attacked from behind by the 145th Brigade led by Li Han.

In the end, the Fourth Wing was completely wiped out, and even the Wing Commander was killed, but fortunately, they handed over the Wing Flag to the brigade commander at that time, so that the Fourth Wing could be rebuilt.

Now the Chahar Allied Army has long since ended, but the 145th Brigade led by Li Han has developed more and more powerful, and the Fourth Wing has remembered all the hatred on the security army.

Of course, if you want to say that there is a deep hatred with the security army, there is also the Sixth Wing, the former captain of the Sixth Wing was the first Dazuo officer to be killed by Chinese soldiers since the establishment of the Eighth Division.

Originally, the wing commander of the 6th Wing also wanted to seize the vanguard mission, but he did not wait for the opportunity to speak to the brigade commander and the division commander, and the bad news came, and the 2nd and 3rd infantry brigades were completely annihilated.

There are only three infantry brigades in the Sixth Wing, and two of the three are gone, and they have completely lost their chance with the vanguard, and when they heard this bad news, the eyes of the Wing Commander of the Sixth Wing turned red all of a sudden.

In addition to the Fourth Wing, Kotaro Nakamura also strengthened two tank squadrons for the Fourth Wing, and although the Eighth Division had a big family, it was still a little stretched to take care of the entire Rehe, so the Kwantung Army equipped him with a tank wing.

The terrain of Rehe was the most suitable for tanks and tanks, but the Japanese did not encounter much resistance to attacking Rehe, so their tank units did not get a chance to show themselves.

This time, Li Han took the initiative to attack Rehe, and Kotaro Nakamura felt that the chariot unit could be handy, so he brought the chariot wing with him.

Moreover, Li Han had already eliminated one of his wings and two brigades, and he also knew that only one fourth wing might not be able to help the security army led by Li Han.

In Nakamura Kotaro's plan, the main role of the Fourth Wing was to recover the field for their Eighth Division, save morale, and assign more than 20 medium tanks from two tank squadrons to the Fourth Wing, just to enhance the firepower of the Fourth Wing, and most Japanese officers knew that the Imperial tanks had always been a nightmare for the Shina people.

The first to appear was definitely the Japanese air force, and 27 bombers from three squadrons landed over the positions of the security forces.

After the dive, bombs fell from the belly of the plane, and large areas of the position were shrouded in fire and explosions, until all the bombs they were carrying were dropped, and the air robbers swaggered back.

In fact, there are anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns in the security forces, and the anti-aircraft guns are all German-made 88-millimeter anti-aircraft guns.

Besides, the little devil's tank does not need 88-mm anti-aircraft guns to fight, it is enough to have 37 anti-aircraft guns and rapid-fire guns.

In addition to the twelve anti-aircraft guns, Lee Han later purchased twenty-four twenty-millimeter machine guns from Will.

However, these weapons used to deal with the aircraft were all arranged by Li Han on the artillery position, so they had to watch the devil's plane dance their teeth and claws above their heads.

After the bombing of the devil's plane, the position of the security army has become unrecognizable, a lot of firepower has been destroyed, and many trenches have been flattened by bombs, but fortunately, it is not the first time that officers at all levels of the security army have fought with devils.

In order to guard against the bombing of the little devil's plane, they had dug a large number of anti-artillery holes in advance and reinforced them with cement, so that as long as they were not directly hit by the bombs, they could basically ensure personal safety.

Although the Japanese planes bombed very fiercely, our troops were well prepared, so the casualties were not large.

After the planes bombed, the next thing was the artillery going into battle, but this time not only the artillery of the fourth wing fired, but the two tank squadrons of more than 20 medium tanks rumbled out of the army of little devils.

Seeing this scene suddenly, Li Han's heart was also shocked, fortunately, there were only twenty tanks in the devil's tank, otherwise, he thought that the Japanese would have discovered the use of tank tanks before Germany.

Behind the chariot, followed by a large number of infantry of the Fourth Wing, with dozens of chariots as cover, the infantry of the little devil ran with special energy, and all the bullets fired out from the positions on both flanks of our army were blocked by the chariots.

And the machine guns and turrets on the combat vehicles were not idle for a moment, constantly firing at the positions of our troops. The Japanese army is already quite proficient in this set of tactics, and under normal circumstances, after two rounds of bombardment, the infantry of the little devils are charging for a few rounds, and the battle is almost the same.

If the defenders are still stubbornly defending their positions, the little devils will send a small force to detour back to the rear of the position.

If it was a year ago, when Li Han had just been in charge of Chahar, the little devils sent this battle to defeat them, and I don't know how many soldiers' lives would have to be filled, but now at most, it would have to consume some shells.

Li Han is not short of shells now, the arsenal can provide him with thousands of shells every month, and when he bought the guns, he already equipped each gun with three to five basic shells, which is enough for the artillery to squander.

"Xu Hu, the opportunity for your artillery regiment to make meritorious service has come again, have you seen the devil's chariot troops, and use the cannon to send the little devil back to their hometown with the car."

Li Han looked at the chariot troops of the devils who were constantly approaching the position, and ordered Xu Hu on the other side of the phone.

"Yes! Throne! I'll send the little devil back to his hometown. Xu Hu perked up and responded loudly.

Since being transferred to Dushi Pass, Xu Hu's mood has been very excited, the equipment of the artillery regiment is getting better and better, but there are not many opportunities for them to perform, especially such a large-scale artillery bombardment.

Although he was the commander of the artillery regiment, it was impossible to take the forty-eight cannons wherever he went, so he cherished every opportunity to shoot.

As for the medium tank that destroys the little devils on the battlefield, it is just a piece of cake for the artillery regiment, and the middle station that can be penetrated by the 37 battle defense artillery, if it is hit by his mountain artillery or howitzer, it will immediately become a veritable iron coffin.

The artillery position was in a grove full of graves, divided into four areas by battalions, where several thousand men of the artillery regiment were busy.
