Chapter 225 is about to be spelled out
The troops of the armored company, led by the company commander Yin Jinshan, quickly launched an operation against Nanzhuang village, and they quickly detoured from the flank.
When they appeared to attack the flank of the 2nd Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army in Nanzhuang Village, the company commander Yin Jinshan gave the battle order.
THE FOUR 37MM ANTI-TANK GUNS OF THE ANTI-TANK GUN PLATOON AND THE TWO 20MM GUNS OF THE MACHINE GUN SQUAD WERE QUICKLY ERECTED.
Three grenadiers and three machine guns of the infantry platoon, and four Maxim heavy machine guns of the machine gun platoon also prepared the covering troops.
Four tanks, six armored vehicles, and more than 30 cavalrymen were ready to attack, and with the order of the company commander Yin Jinshan, the armored company was dispatched.
The roar of the tanks sounded, and the light and heavy machine guns of the artillery began to fire, and the unprepared devil soldiers were killed dozens of people on the spot.
Kiyozaburo Okazaki's face became panicked, and he held up his binoculars to observe the situation ahead.
At this time, his wing headquarters was stationed in Xishengling Village, and even if the tanks of the Independent Regiment would not pose a threat here for the time being, he was still very worried, and he quickly transferred the hundreds of Japanese troops who had withdrawn from the east road to the positions outside the village.
AT THE SAME TIME, OKAZAKI SEISBURO BEGAN TO HIT FOUR 75MM MOUNTAIN GUNS AND ATTACKED THE ARMORED COMPANY UNITS.
The attack on Nanzhuang Village was the 3rd Brigade of the 2nd Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army, which had already suffered more than 400 casualties at this time.
The Captain of the 3rd Brigade was gathering his troops to prepare for the final onslaught on Nanzhuang Village, but before their troops could attack Nanzhuang Village, an armored company appeared on their flank.
As Yin Jinshan gave the order to attack, four tanks and six armored vehicles drove quickly.
The tank machine guns, the light and heavy machine guns on the armored vehicles continued to fire, and one of the devil soldiers was killed.
These devil soldiers who were preparing to attack Nanzhuang Village immediately retreated, and tanks and armored vehicles followed closely behind.
More than 30 cavalrymen of the cavalry platoon attacked with sabers, and a backward devil soldier was cut off by a saber.
The light and heavy machine gun fire caused the evacuated devil soldiers to suffer a heavy blow, and the devil soldiers began to lie on the ground motionless.
Four Maxim heavy machine guns and three light machine guns organized a fire network, and they blocked the way for the devil soldiers to evacuate.
If these devil soldiers forcibly retreated, they would be beaten into a sieve by the dense network of machine-gun fire.
Four shells exploded near the tank armored vehicle, shrapnel clanged on the tank armor.
The grenades fired by mountain artillery do not have much anti-tank capabilities, this grenade is against infantry, as long as the grenade does not directly hit tanks and armored vehicles, the grenade is very limited in its impact on tanks and armored vehicles.
The Panzer Company's troops attacked the Japanese troops from the south to the north, while the four mountain guns fired shells from east to west.
It is not an easy task for a grenade to hit tanks and armored vehicles.
The most important point is that the shrapnel of the grenade on the armor is tinkling and has no effect, but the shrapnel hitting the body of the devil soldier can kill the devil soldier.
Tanks and armored vehicles have already rushed into the ranks of the devil soldiers, and the mountain grenade attack has already begun to injure the devil soldiers.
The artillerymen did not dare to continue firing when they saw that the four shells did not destroy the tanks and armored vehicles, but instead killed more than a dozen Japanese riflemen, and the leader of the artillery squadron observed through the artillery mirror that he was looking for a new target.
"AT THREE O'CLOCK, AT A DISTANCE OF FIFTEEN HUNDRED METERS, FOUR 75MM MOUNTAIN GUNS, LOADED WITH ARMOR-PIERCING SHELLS, THREE RAPID-FIRE!"
Chen Haojie, the platoon commander of the anti-tank artillery platoon, discovered the Japanese mountain artillery position one step ahead, and he shouted loudly.
The four tank guns immediately turned their muzzles, the positions of the guns were immediately adjusted, and the armor-piercing shells were quickly loaded into the chambers.
The gunners fired, one by one the armor-piercing shells were fired, and the ammunition men continued to reload the armor-piercing shells.
FOUR OUTER 37MM ANTI-TANK GUNS FIRED TWELVE ARMOR-PIERCING SHELLS, AND THE JAPANESE MOUNTAIN ARTILLERY POSITIONS WERE FILLED WITH GUNSMOKE.
Three mountain guns were blown up on the spot, and although the remaining one was not destroyed, the Japanese army had no relevant artillery to use mountain guns.
Kiyozaburo Okazaki's face turned pale, and he immediately ordered the troops to garrison their positions, while he quickly sent a telegram to the corps headquarters requesting tactical guidance.
The Panzer Company made several charges, killing more than 200 Devil soldiers, but once the Devils had secured their positions, they began to attack tanks and armored vehicles with infantry guns and grenadiers.
An armored vehicle was hit by a miniature grenade fired from a grenadier canister, which sank into a part of it, resulting in the death of two soldiers.
Yin Jinshan saw that the Japanese position had been stabilized, and he was worried that the Japanese army would concentrate artillery for firing, so he immediately gave the order to retreat.
The armored company quickly retreated to Nanzhuang Village, and after meeting with the defenders of Nanzhuang Village, Yin Jinshan and Hong Zhiqiang met with them.
After Hong Zhiqiang learned of Yin Jinshan's mission here, he immediately called Zhang Dajun, the platoon commander of the reconnaissance platoon, over.
Soon, Zhang Dajun's reconnaissance platoon was dispatched, and they began to search for the whereabouts of the pilot, while the armored company temporarily assisted in the garrison of Nanzhuang Village.
In the regimental headquarters of the independent regiment, Chief of Staff Zhao Lerong counted the casualties of each unit, and he quickly came to Sun Weiguo.
The three infantry companies of the infantry battalion were almost completely wiped out, one infantry artillery platoon was completely wiped out, and the machine gun company still had four of its twelve heavy machine guns, and the shooters and secondary shooters suffered heavy losses.
The 12 mountain guns of the artillery battalion were intact because they were concealed in the anticline position of Naozhai Mountain.
But the third artillery company suffered heavy losses, and there are only six mortars of more than 20 mortars in the third platoon.
Although the position of Nantou Village was recaptured by the armored company, the independent regiment had no troops stationed at hand.
The positions of Tianjing Village and Nanzhuang Village are precarious, the time is now two o'clock in the afternoon, and the troops will hold out until three o'clock in the afternoon at most, and the positions of the independent regiment will be broken through by the Japanese army, and the regimental headquarters will also be surrounded here.
"Defend the country, retreat, now there is no Japanese army in the south, we can break out from there, we will temporarily go to Hebei Province to rest and recuperate, if we don't retreat, the independent regiment will be exhausted."
The head of the regiment, Zhong Jian, came to Sun Weiguo with a gloomy face, the independent regiment has reached the point of breaking its muscles and bones this time, and the independent regiment will be exhausted after fighting.
The independent regiment was expanded step by step from the district squad, which was not only Sun Weiguo's hard work, but also Zhong Jian's hard work.
Seeing that the independent regiment was about to run out, Zhong Jian couldn't bear such a loss.
Even if the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region has given clear instructions, although Sun Weiguo is the deputy head of the regiment at the independence talks, he has absolute military command. But at this time, Zhong Jian ignored these, he had a tough attitude and wanted Sun Weiguo to immediately command the troops to evacuate.
