Section 8 The Yellow River is Roaring IV

Rumble...... Hu Dali felt the shock of the tank, and looked out from the lookout, a few little devils were operating a 37 battle anti-aircraft gun to shoot at them, he smiled coldly, this kind of anti-tank gun can't help the thick shell of the concave tank at all, and now he has to deal with an artillery found in the distance. //、М/

"Aim! Put! "The huge body of the tank shook", the muzzle of the gun spewed out a ball of fire, "the shell came out of the chamber", and a cloud of black smoke exploded in the distance. Hu Dali scolded in a low voice, it was obvious that the explosion point was still some distance from the target.

"Get on the cannonball!" Hu Dali's eyes did not leave the scope, there were four people in the car, the division of labor was clear, he was the commander of the car, "he was also the aimed, the tank was moving laterally, he was very awkward about this mode of combat, and he couldn't help but think of a sentence that the instructor said in the armored forces school, "If the tank can't rush up, it's better to have a machine gun." ”

But now their tanks were tied, and the little devils used a very stupid way, which now proved to be very effective, and the tanks had to stop and "shoot at the devils' batteries, and suffered huge losses as a result."

"The infantry rushed over!" , the driver is a Hunanese" accent with a grand Hunan. The members of the tank came from all over the country, the gunner was from Shaanxi, and he took out a shell from the ammunition depot and put it into the chamber of the gun, and the machine gunner Xiao Jiang was from Jiangxi.

Hu Dali had actually seen that a lieutenant with a dozen soldiers rushed through the trench and rushed into the position of the devils, and several devils rushed out of the trenches of the wreckage and launched a counter-charge towards them.

On the side of the trench, a soldier hid in a crater, holding a rifle in his arms, "curled up, two figures pounced into the crater from behind, the two soldiers did not even look at the trembling soldiers curled up in a ball, just watched" and jumped out and threw themselves into the anti-tank trench.

At this moment, there were already many soldiers in the anti-tank trench, and some of them either took ladders or bayonets, and some of them did not drop their sapper shovels, and the sapper shovels quickly made holes in the trench wall one by one, and then climbed up along the holes.

"What are you doing here! Get up! Get up! ”

Zhu Haitao looked up and saw a major slapping the steel helmet on his head hard, his eyes were full of panic, "Nuo Nuo didn't dare to speak, his body moved slightly, and the major leaned into his ear and shouted: "Stay here only to wait for death!" Rush over! Rush through to survive! "Yes, yes" long, officer. Zhu Haitao just relied on instinct to answer.

"Let's go to war for the first time." The major's tone was much softened" Zhu Haitao nodded in a panic "The major smiled at him and said calmly: "That's right, the little devil was also born by his father, and he was shot over" The brain is still broken, it's not a big deal. ”

Several soldiers who followed the major were hiding in the crater, which was so large that several people hid in it, and there was no crowding at all, and the soldiers who were observing from above slipped down to report that "the Japanese are counterattacking from the depths, and the offensive of the troops is being blocked."

The major patted Zhu Haitao on the shoulder and motioned for him to follow behind him, "Then he climbed up and observed, and then rushed out, seeing the people around him rushing out one by one, Zhu Haitao felt bitter and dry" But seeing them rushing out without hesitation, I was also a little envious in my heart" He looked back and saw that a large number of troops were coming one after another.

It was impossible to go back, and he saw with his own eyes that two soldiers of the previous echelon fled back and were shot dead on the spot by their company commander. Before the war, the company commander announced battlefield discipline, and all those who retreated and fled were to be executed on the spot.

Zhu Haitao gritted his teeth, rushed out of the crater, ran all the way, and jumped into the anti-tank trench almost with his eyes closed. After entering the anti-tank trench, Zhu Haitao was really relieved, and the major commanded the soldiers in the trench to divide into arrays and "climb up separately." He asked Zhu Haitao to still follow him.

As soon as Zhu Haitao boarded the trench, a bullet flew over his head, which frightened him and immediately fell to the ground, and after a while, someone behind him pushed him" He hurriedly got up, and rushed into the crater in front of him.

Zhu Haitao followed a few people to rush forward, the Japanese position was already dilapidated, and the fierce shelling and bombardment "plowed almost the entire position, and the trenches were filled with a layer of soft soil." The corpses of the soldiers were on the battlefield today.

rushed for a distance, "I don't know how many devils came out of there" screamed and rushed towards them with a bayonet, Zhu Haitao almost instinctively raised his gun to shoot, and the shirtless devil fell to the ground with the sound of the gunshot, and a large stream of bright red blood came out of his chest.

"What are you doing standing stupidly! Come on! A sergeant who came up from behind pushed Zhu Haitao down, waking up Zhu Haitao who was in a daze, and Zhu Haitao immediately followed them and rushed forward.

"Well done! Rush in! Chi Fengcheng shouted excitedly, after the Japanese artillery bombardment stopped, "he and Qiu Qingquan set up a temporary headquarters behind the two embankments of the canal" In the telescope, the blue sky and white sun flag were advancing towards the Japanese army.

But Qiu Qingquan couldn't laugh, the tanks that participated in the attack did not retreat, and now more than a dozen of them are burning, and if they continue to lose like this, when they hit Liaocheng, his tanks will probably be lost.

Qiu Qingquan categorically ordered the offensive to be stopped, and "the troops moved to a defensive state." Chi Fengcheng also calmed down from the excitement, the losses of the attacking troops were too great, in the attack just now, Shen Xia, the commander of the shackles regiment, personally led the follow-up troops into the attack, which broke through the Japanese defense line "Chi Fengcheng estimated that the loss of the regiment was close to half.

The loss of the first line of defense alone was so great, and Chi Fengcheng felt a little uncomfortable, so he readjusted and re-chose the direction of attack.

Song Xilian on the other side of the canal was also thinking about this problem, and Song Xilian did not believe that the Japanese army had built such a tight defense system in the entire Liaochengchi area. After Qiu Qingquan and Chi Fengcheng returned from the opposite bank, the three of them discussed and decided to change the frontal attack to a feint. The troops of the 31st Division crossed the river, made a detour to the north, and attacked Liaocheng from the direction of Daokoupu.

The first team stopped the attack, so that Marui Yoshito breathed a sigh of relief, the Japanese casualties were also huge, Masai Yoshito put two squadrons in the first-line position, none of the two squadrons returned to the second-line position, all of them were killed, and a squadron reinforced from the second-line position "also all died." 88 anti-aircraft guns deployed here, heavy artillery "losses also reached half."

In the opinion of Zhengjingtou people, "the biggest threat to the ** team is not the tanks, but the air force", and the heavy artillery and anti-aircraft guns lost are mainly destroyed by the air force.

However, this battle "also played another role, before the war, Masai Yoshito and Toyama Noboru looked down on Nakajima Yasuken very much, not only by virtue of seniority, but more importantly, both of them thought that Nakajima Yasuken waved three imperial divisions, and actually did not dare to attack the Shina army, which was simply a great shame for the imperial army, but this battle made Masai Yoshito begin to look at Nakajima Yasuken again.

Yasuken Nakajima accurately judged the direction of attack of the Shina army, and used the most stupid method, but tied up the tanks of the Shina army, and what Yoshito Masai admired the most was the use of heavy artillery and 88mm anti-aircraft guns. When Nakajima Yasuken asked for the construction of a hidden cannon cave here, Yoshito Masai and Toyama Noboru used to laugh at it, but it was only when Sue Sei San insisted on it and inspected it himself, they had to comply.

Now this kind of hidden artillery hole is actually a semi-bunker "dug into the ground, covered with branches and tents and floating earth, usually it is empty" When the Chinese army appeared, the trucks pulled in the heavy artillery and anti-aircraft guns" and then the trucks left" The infantry pushed the artillery into the hidden artillery hole. After the shelling, the infantry pulled the heavy artillery and anti-aircraft guns out of the hidden artillery holes and hung them onto the trucks.

In this way, it was possible to evade the artillery fire of the Chinese Air Force, but it was difficult to hide from the Chinese Air Force, which was hovering in the sky, and most of the heavy artillery and anti-aircraft guns lost were lost in the hands of the Air Force.

The Shina Army stopped attacking" The first phase of the operational objectives was finally completed, Yoshito Masai put down the binoculars, turned his head and told the chief of staff to let him report to the Third Headquarters of Arisue Sei, and the Shina Army stopped attacking.

"Nakajima-kun, our first step has been completed, should we let the 1st Chariot Division attack" to break the 22nd Group Army first? After receiving the report, Seizo asked Nakajima Kangjian. In Nakajima's Jirong, the troops of the Shina Army were first depleted by defense to defeat the morale of the Shina Army, and then the 1st Chariot Division was counterattacked.

Now not only the offensive of the mechanized First Army attacking on the Western Front was contained, but also the 22nd Army, which was attacking from the south. However, Yasuken Nakajima did not approve of the shift to a counteroffensive.

"General, it's too early to assert that the consumption of the Chinese army is not enough." Nakajima's expression was not at all relaxed, on the contrary, he was a little worried: "The Liaocheng battlefield is actually part of the Taishan defense line, and the ultimate goal of this battle is to hold Shandong and Jinan, but now due to the loss of Jiaodong, the China Army has actually gone around to the back of the Mount Tai defense line, and the Mount Tai defense line has existed in name only, even if we defeat the current China Army" I am afraid that the Shandong war situation will not be recovered. If they won a tactical victory, then the loss of Jiaodong was a strategic failure, and the branch army was able to attack Jinan, once Jinan was lost, the Taishan defense line will no longer have the slightest effect, and the heavy army group assembled there will fall into the encirclement of the Chinese army, "So it seems that we must hold Liaocheng, otherwise, the mouth army will all fall into the encirclement of the Chinese army." The expression of the last Seizo became serious.

Nakajima shook his head: "General, didn't you find out?" The Chinese army actually has some remaining strength, and the Chinese army that is blocked on the western front will definitely make a detour to the north, and we can prevent them from taking a small detour, but what if they want to take a large-scale detour? For example, north of the Mache River, the tank army will be transferred to the north of the Mache River, going upstream, and going straight to Dexian, how will we deal with it? ”

Yousue Jingsan was completely stunned, before the war, they did not imagine that the Zhina Army would be detoured, "but this is only a detour to the Liaocheng battlefield, but once the Zhina Army ignores Liaocheng and "throws off the imperial army here" and directly takes Dexian, an important town on the Jinpu Line, then the entire battle situation is under their control, not only the entire 12th Army was surrounded, but their group army was also surrounded on both sides of the Yellow River.

When Yasuken Nakajima and Seizo Arisue were discussing in the headquarters, Song Xilian on the west bank of the canal received an order from Zhuang Jihua, ordering him to besiege Liaocheng with the Second Army and the 22nd Group Army, and the 101st Army and the First Mechanized Army immediately went north, crossed the Mache River, and joined the guerrilla corps led by Chen G, the New Eighth Army, the New 110th Division, and Pang Bingxun and Sun Dianying's troops. Take Linqing, Xiajin, if possible, capture Dexian, if impossible, go south along the Jinpu line, will attack Jinan. In addition, in order to ensure the strength of the siege of Liaocheng, the Qing Third Army and the Qing Fourth Army crossed the Yellow River north.
