Chapter 570: Bloody Rain Comes to Wet Battle Robes (4)
Chapter 570: Blood Rain Comes to Wet Robes (4)
Liu Yimin listened to it funny on the phone, and when Li Chang was finished, he asked softly: "Brigadier Li, whose son are you?" ”
Li Chang was busy standing upright, and said into the microphone: "I'm sorry, slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, it's definitely a slip of the tongue I'm my son's son, yes, I'm my son's son."
The voice from the microphone was still so gentle: "Where is your son?" Why didn't I see it? ”
"Report to the division chief: my son is in my wife's womb"
"Okay, you've been married for more than a year with your ability, and your wife's stomach is as flat as the airport. The net empty cannon is gone"
"Lao Tzu just got married, and his daughter-in-law didn't even warm the bed and went to the front line, where can you give birth to a baby, your master is full of men, and he doesn't know that hungry men are hungry, and he is right to give birth to a baby in a war. Can my Lao Li compare with you? Let's open the grace, let your sister-in-law come to Shandong, Lao Tzu is about to go crazy If your sister-in-law doesn't come again, it is estimated that Lao Tzu will not even be able to fight with air cannons."
"Don't be, quickly lead the artillery group to catch up, I can tell you, save shells, immediately reorganize the ranks after the battle, leave the air defense brigade to set up positions around Jinan, and the artillery brigade immediately make combat preparations."
As soon as Li Chang heard that he still had to prepare for battle, he was no longer nervous, and hurriedly said "yes", put down the phone, and ordered the artillery group to roll towards the city of Jinan.
After the 1st Brigade entered the city, Wang Dahu commanded the 1st Regiment to take the lead, using tanks and armored vehicles to open the road, along the east-west street, towards the Qichuan Gate, the east gate of the inner city.
Under the cover of the tanks and armored vehicles of the Second Regiment, the Second Regiment, the Third Regiment, the New First Regiment, and the troops directly under the division who entered the city with the First Regiment of the Second Regiment, they first surrounded and annihilated the troops gathered around the east gate of the city wall.
Strictly speaking, the tactics of this little devil are still at the level of summarizing the tactics of the First World War. Speaking of this city defense battle, they, like most squadrons, pay attention to defending the city wall, thinking that the city wall can block the pace of the squadron's attack. Guan Kauji not only concentrated the heavy firepower of each unit on the city wall, but also transferred the main force to the city wall, so that it could be put into battle at any time. This is true of the outer city, and it is also true of the inner city. Nishio Shouzo designed it this way at the time, and Tani Shoufu did not raise any objections after reading it, indicating that the Japanese army was this tactic.
Of course, in order to kill and injure a large number of the Eighth Route Army with peripheral positions and outer cities, and ensure the support of Jinan's city defense until the arrival of reinforcements, Guan Guizhi spent a lot of thought on the deployment of troops. The 214th Wing was placed on the outer position, the 216th Wing in the inner city was used as a reserve, and the divisional baggage wing, engineer wing, and search team were holding the commercial port. After the Jinan garrison and the 35th Division were assembled, the remaining two brigades, as well as the puppet army garrison in Jinan, and the temporarily conscripted armed expatriates were under the command of the 214th Wing, which held on to the outer city.
As for the street defense, Seki didn't put much effort into it, just laid out some barricades on the streets. This can't be blamed on Guan Guizhi's carelessness, mainly because he didn't expect the Eighth Route Army to break the city in one fell swoop. In Guan Guizhi's mind, with the solidity of the city walls of Jinan, his 30th Division, plus the Jinan garrison and the puppet army, would have no problem guarding for a week, at least for a day and a night.
There is another reason, that is, the 34th Division just entered Jinan yesterday, the Eighth Route Army did not reach the outside of Jinan during the day yesterday and today, the market in Jinan is still very calm, the little devils are still unwilling to show weakness in front of the Chinese, and still want to maintain the prosperity of Jinan, and they can't turn the city into a blocking position before being attacked, right?
In this way, the main force of the 2nd and 214th Wing, with the brigade as a unit, was placed on the east gate, north gate, and south gate city wall. The city wall of the West Gate was defended by a brigade of the Jinan garrison, and when the Eighth Route Army was preparing to launch the first wave of attacks, the main force would give the Eighth Route Army the maximum damage, and then the main force would be withdrawn, and a brigade of the Jinan garrison, the puppet army and the Japanese expatriates temporarily armed would be sent to the city wall to confront the Eighth Route Army, and the main force would be concealed and waiting.
Normally, this configuration is normal. The Japanese officers have studied the tactics of the squadron and know that the general Chinese troops attack the city, and the covering fire is heavy machine guns and mortars, and they all come first to reconnoiter the firepower, and then the infantry carry the ladder and shout to pounce again and again, with the victory sign of climbing the city wall and occupying the city wall.
In the 214th Wing Commander's mind, Liu Yimin's troops have a lot of artillery, but no matter how much he does, he will also carry out fire reconnaissance, send infantry to launch a tentative attack, and then find out the light and dark firepower points of the imperial army, and then concentrate artillery fire to bombard the gap. In this way, the main force he placed on the city wall can give a lot of damage when Liu Yimin's infantry launches a tentative attack, and then withdraw the city wall to hide, and when the artillery of the Eighth Route Army blasts open the gap and the infantry pours into the gap, swing the main force to kill it, eliminate the Eighth Route Army that is pouring into the gap, and turn the gap into a meat grinder for the siege troops of the Eighth Route Army.
The idea of the captain of the 214th Wing of the Japanese army was very good, but it was a pity that he had not fought with the main force of the instructor and did not understand the tactics of the instructor at all. No, as soon as he came up, he buried the main brigade on the city wall of the East Gate under the cannon of the Eighth Route Army.
Guan Guizhi and Gu Shoufu knew this kind of deployment of the 214th Wing Commander, so at the moment when the artillery group of the Eighth Route Army bombarded the east city wall, they all knew that Jinan City could not be defended.
After the main force of the 1st Brigade entered the city, it encountered the Jinan garrison, temporary conscription soldiers and puppet troops that the 214th Wing stayed under the city wall to replace the main force on the city wall.
At the beginning, the Japanese puppet army was still very tenacious. Probably out of self-preservation, the little devils frantically shot at the Eighth Route Army that pressed up, and the little devils in the barricades beat the machine guns like the wind, intending to stop the Eighth Route Army from advancing. Even the puppet soldiers of the puppet Shandong garrison were unwilling to be defeated, and under the threat of devil bayonets and machine guns, they shot and threw bombs at the Eighth Route Army, and when they found that machine guns and rifles were useless against the tanks of the Eighth Route Army, some young Japanese soldiers pounced on the tank armored vehicles with explosives bags and grenades, wanting to die with the tanks.
Accompanying the tanks were the 1st Regiment, the 2nd Regiment, the 3rd Regiment, and the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. In particular, the 1st Regiment was equipped with a large number of automatic rifles, 181 machine guns, rocket launchers, and infantry guns, and its equipment was not a level higher than that of the 34th Division of the Japanese Army. Not only can Liu Yimin's name be called out by each soldier, but also regularly correct the study book for them, each soldier is a literate soldier, familiar with the equipment, and the level of use of the equipment is very high. The little devil wants to use explosives packs and grenades to die with the tank, but he has to pass them first, right? The problem is that the little devil can't pass this level, and can only be beaten into a mouth and gnaw mud
When the tanks of the 1st Regiment pressed through the barricades of the little devils and rolled westward, the 2nd Regiment had more tanks and armored vehicles than the 1st Regiment and covered the infantry of the 3rd Regiment and pressed up again. Now, these Japanese puppet troops, who were not the main force and elite, couldn't hold on, and began to run away with their butts backwards.
The Japanese puppet army fled along the streets and alleys in front, and the tanks, armored vehicles, and infantry of the Eighth Route Army turned on their lights and swept with machine guns in pursuit. Seeing that they couldn't run the wheels and bullets, those puppet soldiers began to raise their guns and surrender, leaving only the temporarily conscripted armed expatriates and the Jinan garrison still rushing towards the south gate, the north gate and the inner city.
By the time the south and north gates were all blown up, and the 3rd and 2nd Brigades, as well as the 7th and 6th Brigades that had followed the 1st Brigade into the city, the battle in the outer city of Jinan had actually entered the final stage.
When Li Chang's artillery group collapsed the east gate of the inner city, the first regiment had already rushed to the east gate of the inner city.
Wang Dahu's mind was full of attack speed, and he wanted to quickly open up the east-west traffic in Jinan City, completely disrupt the devils, and facilitate the division and annihilation of the follow-up troops.
As soon as Li Chang's artillery group stopped shelling, Wang Dahu listened to it and saw that there was no movement on the Japanese position, and with a wave of his hand, tanks and armored vehicles were dispatched. It turned out that the supplementary battalion, which had been following behind the three main battalions, took the lead, and rushed into the city gate after passing the three main battalions and following the tanks and armored vehicles.
Wang Dahu understood the move of the supplementary battalion very well, and they were all full of energy, from the battalion commander to the soldiers, and wanted to compare with the main battalion to see if there was a gap in combat effectiveness. Therefore, Wang Dahu did not make adjustments, and he also wanted the supplementary battalion to show his prestige.
The inner city is stationed the 215th Wing of the Little Devils. This wing is also the general reserve of the Jinan garrison, and its strength is not much different from that of the first regiment. There is a big gap between the equipment, the level of training, and the combat effectiveness of the regiment.
When the artillery group of the Eighth Route Army shelled the outlying positions of the Japanese army on the front line of Wangsherenzhuang, the 215th Wing had already received the order to prepare for battle, and the troops had been assembled. When the artillery group of the Eighth Route Army collapsed the east gate of the outer city, the commander of the 215th Wing wanted to lead the reinforcements to beat the Eighth Route Army out. However, before he received the order to reinforce the east gate of the outer city, the tanks of the Eighth Route Army roared into the outer city, and then the artillery group of the Eighth Route Army began to shoot extended, and the Qichuan Gate was collapsed at once, and the little devils on the wall of the Qichuan Gate were reimbursed.
It was immediately clear to the commander of the 215th Wing that he was no longer a reserve, but an inner city garrison. Moreover, the main direction of attack of the Eighth Route Army is the East Gate, and whether the inner city can be held depends on whether it can hold the East Gate.
The main forces of the Devil 215 Wing were all concentrated at Qichuanmen.
Under these circumstances, the supplementary battalion of the 1st Regiment rushed into Qichuan Gate with tanks and armored vehicles, and they were greeted by a dense rain of bullets and infantry artillery and grenadier shells of the 215th Wing.
The devil's infantry artillery and grenadiers do not work against tanks, but pose a threat to armored vehicles. Two armored vehicles trailing the tanks were shot and immediately lay on their stomachs.
The light and heavy machine guns, rifles, and grenades of the devils were specially used against the infantry of the Eighth Route Army. Light and heavy machine guns aimed at the gap for covering fire, and the little devil's little melon grenades fell one after another like hail, Rao is soldiers have tank cover, and they are all equipped with enough earth tanks to cover their bodies, but the Japanese army's firepower counterattack still blew up the supplementary battalion that followed the tanks and armored vehicles into the Qichuan Gate, and even the battalion commander fell in a pool of blood.
When has Wang Dahu suffered such a loss since he led the first group? Seeing the blood of the soldiers staining the garbage on the ruins of Qichuan Gate red, Wang Dahu's eyes were red, and he opened his mouth and shouted: "Withdraw quickly, withdraw quickly"
The three main battalions of the 1st Regiment were on par with the old 1st Battalion everywhere, and they did not retreat in the battle, and they vowed not to give up if they failed to complete their tasks. The casualties were so great that the soldiers did not even take half a step back, and the living soldiers quickly lay down on the spot and began to shoot at the little devils.
Fortunately, Wang Dahu has experienced a hundred battles and has extremely rich battlefield experience, so he is not panicked. Otherwise, if all the main forces rushed up just now, the losses would be even greater, and maybe the sect group would have been disabled.
As soon as he saw that the little devil's firepower was so fierce and the troops suffered heavy casualties, Wang Laohu knew that he had encountered a hard stubble. This must be the main force of the little devils in Jinan City, destroy them, and the battle to capture Jinan is over.
Wang Dahu immediately ordered tanks and armored vehicles to continue to attack and advance, attack the formation and artillery positions of the little devils, and cover the heavy fire of the regiment to occupy the position; Command each bazooka group to bombard the place where the little devils are concentrated and destroy the little devils' will to resist; The second and third battalions were ordered to seize the city wall from the north and south, and the old first battalion was ready to attack the devils head-on.
Li Chang's artillery group firepower was too strong, not only collapsed the Qichuan Gate, but even the city wall connected to the Qichuan Gate was blown down a large part. The gap was too large to teach a regiment to deploy its forces and firepower.
After teaching more than 20 infantry guns and a long heavy machine gun and grenadier canisters of the first regiment to be erected, the commander of the 215th Wing understood why the instructors of the Eighth Route Army always won battles.
The infantry guns of the 1st Regiment were originally fixed to the cars during the march, and the cars were left outside the city, while the infantry guns were all dismounted, loaded on wheels, and pushed forward by the soldiers.
It didn't take long for the revenge of the Church to begin. First, the firepower of tanks and armored vehicles was exerted, attacking as they drove and rushing towards the devils. Immediately afterwards, the rocket launcher groups that occupied the position began to bombard, and when a rocket hit, it was a dead sea of devils. After the heavy firepower of the first regiment was deployed, the arrogance of the little devil was suppressed.
Under the cover of artillery fire, the second and third battalions went up to the city wall and began to attack the devils from a high position.
At this time, the old battalion made a move, and the soldiers each had an automatic rifle from Bayi, and the bullets were endless, and they were also hitting with great accuracy. Not to mention those little devils who were still throwing grenades just now, not to mention those machine gunners and gunners, even those guys who conceal their bodies and shoot with rifles, as long as they dare to show their heads without fear of death, they will be knocked down.
Wang Dahu was ruthless, he had to annihilate all these devils, he couldn't sneak attack Weicheng and kill so many devils, how many casualties did the first regiment have? The trick played by the little devil just now broke the casualty record since the establishment of the First Sect, so how could Wang Dahu not hate.
Wang Dahu strictly ordered all battalions to pounce on them, launch firepower, and use bullets to send these damned devils back to Little Japan
When the opponent's firepower is too strong, you are a special soldier and a sniper, and it is impossible to have too many opportunities to show your individual quality. Now the firepower of the first regiment is strong enough, but the little devil on the opposite side does not have the quality of special forces and snipers. They had no choice but to surrender and die.
The Devil Wing Captain is no longer the time when he launched a surprise attack, and what he regrets most now is why he didn't launch a gas bomb, if he fired a gas bomb, it would be too close to let his soldiers die, at least he could drag this group of Eighth Route Army to be buried. Now it's over, and there is no chance to fire gas bombs.
Due to the bombing of the Eighth Route Army Air Force on the road from Tai'an to Jinan, the 33rd Division suffered heavy losses, and the 215th Wing also replenished a large number of soldiers of the Jinan garrison. These little devils have never fought with the Eighth Route Army since they arrived in China, and they don't know what they are afraid of. Now I know that I am afraid, and I regret joining the army and coming to China, but the bullets of the Eighth Route Army are also aimed at them. The lucky ones of these guys couldn't hold it anymore and began to run away.
In the heat of battle, deserters are the most likely to shake the will to fight. Therefore, regardless of the unit, severe sanctions are imposed on deserters. No, as soon as the little devil appeared as a deserter, the captain of the devil wing ordered the machine gun to shoot him. But as soon as the devil machine gunner turned the muzzle, he was hit by a string of bullets, and he went back to the East to see his grandmother. The captain of the Devil's Wing watched the deserters turn from threes and threes to crowds, and in the end, even he himself was coerced into joining the ranks of the deserters.
Seeing that the devil was instigated and began to flee, Wang Dahu immediately ordered the whole regiment to pursue.
This chase chased all the way out of the old city to the west gate of the wall.
At this time, the troops of the 2nd Brigade, the 3rd Brigade and the 7th Brigade had already attacked the West Gate, and the main force of the 1st Brigade had wiped out the Japanese puppet army that had been defeated in the wall, and followed the 1st Regiment to the West Gate.
The best is to teach the Sixth Brigade, which actually drove a car to chase down the devils.
Defending the west gate was a brigade of the Jinan garrison. As soon as these devils saw that Jinan City was lost, the remnants of the army were defeated and driven to the west gate like rabbits by the Eighth Route Army, and hurriedly shot to block the Eighth Route Army, covering the deserters to leave the city and flee to the commercial port.
It's okay that they didn't shoot, but as soon as they fired, they immediately became the focus of the Eighth Route Army's attack. After a round of blows, these little devils crawled and joined the escape.
The Eighth Route Army, which was in hot pursuit, followed the little devil and broke out, rushed out of the West Gate, and chased to the commercial port.
The headquarters of the 12th Army of the Japanese Army is located in the Jiaoji Road Hotel in the commercial port. It is said that the devils fled here, and they should stop the shameful act of fleeing, build a position on the spot, and swear to defend the headquarters and His Excellency the commander to the death. But the routs didn't care about that, they just wanted to run for their lives now. No matter whether the soldiers of the baggage wing defending the commercial port fired warning shots or shot them, they could not prevent the rout from escaping, and even the defense line with the baggage wing and the search wing was also broken.
Wang Dahu didn't care what the devil thought, he just led the sect like a sharp knife, tightly against the back of the little devil deserter.
The machine guns on the tanks are roaring, the machine guns on the armored vehicles are roaring, the steel guns in the hands of the fighters are roaring, and the bullets are chasing the defeated devils, constantly harvesting lives.
Under the fire of the Eighth Route Army, the little devil rout swooped forward in rows and rows. It was not lying down, it was falling down, it was carried forward by the bullet momentum of the Eighth Route Army.
In the end, the little devils were really frightened by the relentless pursuit of the Eighth Route Army, and some people began to surrender on their knees. Soon it developed into a group of surrenders, almost more than 2,000 people, and most of them were soldiers of the baggage wing stationed in the commercial port. The others had already returned to Japan during the Eighth Route Army's pursuit.
As a result, Wang Dahu was stimulated by the casualties of the first regiment of the sect, and even ordered the troops not to accept the surrender of the devils, and they were killed.
Wang Xinyun, political commissar of the First Regiment, reminded Wang Dahu that the Eighth Route Army treated prisoners preferentially, and the devils laid down their arms and surrendered. It is a violation of discipline to shoot prisoners.
Wang Dahu's eyes widened: "What prisoner?" I didn't see it. Lao Tzu's eyes are yellow and mushy, there are only devils, no captives"
Wang Dahu has this attitude, and there is no need to say anything about the soldiers. Everyone saw the casualties of the supplementary battalion just now, and they were anxious to take revenge on the little devil, and now the little devil sold his back to the Eighth Route Army, so if he didn't shoot, wouldn't it be too much like a man?
So, the machine gun roared wildly, and the rifle shot according to it. Some soldiers were afraid that the little devil would pretend to be dead, and when the machine gun stopped firing, the soldiers pounced with their guns, tossing and turning one by one, and when they saw that they were not dead, they would make up a bayonet, and they could not let one of the nets be exposed anyway.
When Gao Yuan, the commander of the First Brigade, and Cheng Cuilin, the political commissar of the First Brigade, received the report and caught up, the streets were full of the corpses of little devils, and where could they find a person who was angry.
Cheng Cuilin is Wang Dahu's old chief, when he was the popular 34th political commissar, Wang Dahu was just a small platoon leader, so he trained Wang Dahu like a child.
Cheng Cuilin asked Wang Dahu why he killed the prisoners?
Wang Dahu "snapped" and stood upright: "Report to the political commissar: The division commander said that every devil who has been to the battlefield in China deserves to die." It is to set up a tribunal and try them seriously, and the result is still to shoot them. It is now a time of great war, and there is no judge to be found, so the teaching group will judge them on behalf of the Chinese."
Cheng Cuilin's face turned pale, and he pointed at Wang Dahu and said, "You still dare to quibble, hand over the weapon, and be confined in custody." ”
Before he finished speaking, Gao Yuan said: "Wang Dahu, why don't you hurry up and admit your mistake to the political commissar?" The commander of the little devil and the commander of the division have not been caught yet, what are you talking about? ”
Wang Dahu immediately saluted Cheng Cuilin: "Report to the political commissar, I was wrong." Please be lenient, and when I catch the commander and commander of the devil division, I will report to you immediately and accept the punishment."
Cheng Cuilin looked at the plateau, and the plateau glared at Wang Dahu and shouted, "Why don't you go soon?" Waiting for Lao Tzu to have a treat, isn't it? ”
Wang Dahu turned around and left.
Cheng Cuilin said in a deep voice: "Killing prisoners is a short-sighted act, and it is extremely incommensurate with the status of the number one main force of our entire army. This matter must be taken seriously"
Gao Yuan nodded.
Cheng Cuilin thought that the brigade commander agreed, and just wanted to say how to punish Wang Dahu, he heard the voice of the plateau coming: "This little devil is very troublesome, kill it, violate discipline." If you don't kill it, you have to raise it in vain and waste food. Raising a pig is also better than them, and the pig can be sold for two dollars. If the little devil dies, maybe he can exchange it for money, but he can't sell it for as much as he lives. If he sells it, he will take a gun and kill the people again. Forget it, if you kill it, it's not a big deal, just strengthen education in the future. Don't make trouble for the division commander, he has enough trouble"
Cheng Cuilin looked at the plateau, his face full of doubts.
Dear book friends: everyone must be able to understand the hard work of staying up late every day. When the code word ended, the mountain people were reluctant to look back and take a closer look, always yawning and eager to rest. Who knows the hardships here? Please ask friends to vote for the guaranteed monthly ticket, the mountain people are eagerly looking forward to it
