[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 218: The Incompetent Matsuura (Ask for Subscription)

At four o'clock in the morning, Xu Weiguo's 200th Regiment launched an attack in the east of the city, and since the defenders in the east of the city had less than one squadron, it was quickly broken through by the 200th Regiment, and the battle became a battle for the inner city.

Knowing that the Duqi Division had broken into the city, Yin Dong Zhengxi's face was completely ashen, and he even thought of Hasunuma Pan and Hakuda Shigeichi. Fortunately, Junrokuro Matsuura sent a telegram saying that the 147th Wing had passed Lijiatai and was only ten kilometers away from the county seat of Pengze, and it was expected to arrive in twenty minutes, and as long as they could hold out for twenty minutes, the battle situation would take a turn.

Yin Dong Zhengxi immediately ordered Jing Taijiu to immediately shrink his forces, block the attack with the division headquarters as the center, and wait for reinforcements.

In fact, Jing Taijiuyi had already begun to shrink his forces, and at this time he had less than 400 troops left in his hands, plus only 600 people who had withdrawn from other directions, if he was too scattered, he would soon be broken by the headquarters of the 7th Division, so he could only shrink.

As soon as the Japanese army shrank like this, Ma Zheng's headquarters was a little difficult to do, the terrain in the city was narrow, and the large army could not be used at all, so it was impossible to quickly annihilate the remnants of the enemy in the city for a while. Fortunately, the troops have broken through the Japanese army's fortifications, as long as they break into the city, it will be easy to do, anyway, Yin Dong Zhengxi, the old devil, is already a turtle in the urn, and how to eat depends on his mood.

However, Ma Zheng's good mood did not last long, and soon the 200th Regiment sent someone to report that a large number of Japanese troops had appeared in the east of the city, as well as many Japanese combat vehicles.

Knowing that reinforcements from the 106th Division of the Japanese Army must have come, Ma Zheng immediately ordered the 200th Regiment to immediately block the Japanese army from entering the city, and to block the Japanese army outside the city, and at the same time ordered the supplementary three regiments in the city to hurry up the time to eliminate the Japanese troops in the city.

Junrokuro Matsuura was also extremely irritable at this time, because he was stubbornly blocked by the Fourth Army of the Central Army on the southern front of Hukou a few days ago. The headquarters suffered heavy losses, for which he was severely reprimanded by the base camp, and was even called the incompetent Matsuura by the newly appointed commander of the 11th Army, Okamura Ninji.

Although he was angry, Junrokuro Matsuura did not dare to refute it, and the reason for crushing people at the level of officials and universities is applicable everywhere, especially in Japan. And Junrokuro Matsuura himself felt that they had fought a really bad fight. It is no wonder that His Excellency the Commander was so angry that the army forces of two divisions and one detachment on the south bank of the Yangtze River had completely lost the results of more than two months in just a few days.

Originally, they were still waiting for reinforcements from the army, but as long as the reinforcements from the 27th Division and the 9th Division arrived, they would definitely launch a large-scale counterattack.

But unexpectedly, before their reinforcements arrived, the people of China took the initiative to launch a counterattack, and in just half a night, they besieged and ambushed the three wings of the imperial army, and now even the county seat of Pengze was in danger, which really made Matsuura Junrokuro shocked, angry and helpless.

At this time, not only Pengze County was in danger of being captured, but even the headquarters of the 101st Division could be destroyed. The true generals, including Lieutenant General Yoon Dong Jung-hee, may also follow in the footsteps of the Hatada detachment and be annihilated by the Shina people in one fell swoop.

If that really happened, it would be a disaster for the Front Army and even for the entire Imperial Japanese Army. To be honest, Yin Dong Zhengxi's stupidity has nothing to do with him Matsuura Junrokuro, and there is not much friendship between them. But as the generals of the defeated army, the two are quite difficult to brother.

And now the two of them are ordered to retreat and jointly guard Peng Ze's defense line. If the 101st Division was annihilated by the Shina people under his nose, not to mention that he Matsuura Junrokuro's face was gloomy. The base camp will inevitably suspect that he will not be saved. The most important thing is that guarding Pengze County is not only a matter of the 101st Division, but also a responsibility of their 106th Division. Therefore, he had to rescue no matter what.

However, at this time, the sound of gunfire in the direction of Pengze County was getting weaker and weaker, which made him extremely worried. He was worried that Yin Dong Zhengxi's troops would not be able to hold on, but he knew that there was only one infantry brigade in Pengze County, and with the combat effectiveness displayed by the enemy, the defenders of the 101st Division would definitely not be able to hold out for too long.

Fortunately, Pengze County is ahead. Hopefully it's still too late!

In the east of Pengze County, the 200th Regiment has been on guard against reinforcements from the east when it is attacking, after all, the Japanese army is not stupid, and it will inevitably mobilize reinforcements from the front line of Madang when Pengze County is so empty.

Sure enough, the scouts sent out soon returned with useful news. Japanese reinforcements had arrived not far outside the city, with at least one reinforced wing, as well as a large number of tanks and automobiles.

After receiving the news, the 200th Regiment immediately withdrew from the battle and began to set up a defensive line in the east of the city to prevent the Japanese from entering the city.

At half past four in the morning, the headquarters of the 106th Division of the Japanese Army, together with the 147th Wing, finally arrived outside Pengze City, and through radio contact, Junrokuro Matsuura was very glad that the radio of the 101st Division was still running, and the communication was not interrupted. It was learned that the regimental headquarters of the 101st Division was now besieged in the center of the city, and that there were now less than two squadrons left in the headquarters, and that the arsenal had also been lost, and that it might collapse the whole line if it held out for another half an hour at most.

Junrokuro Matsuura did not dare to slack off, and immediately ordered his headquarters to immediately enter the battle, and be sure to join the remnants of the 101st Division in the city within half an hour.

In order to crush the enemy in front of him in the shortest possible time, Junrokuro Matsuura did not even let the artillery open fire, and directly let the chariot unit open the way in front, and the infantry followed up, putting on a desperate posture.

If you run into other troops, such a posture can really be frightened, and in the absence of anti-tank weapons, the sudden appearance of a tank unit is equivalent to the arrival of the god of death that harvests life.

But Ma Zheng's department was different, although they did not have anti-aircraft guns, but they had anti-tank dogs, and there was also a secret weapon, so when they saw the Japanese chariot troops rushing up, all the soldiers were not worried, but looked forward to it.

The 200th Regiment is subordinate to the battle sequence of the Duqi Brigade, and the brigade commander Huang Bingyan commanded the 201st Regiment and other directly subordinate troops on the Fengzhen front line to inflict heavy losses on the Japanese army's independent mixed second brigade The glorious record they already knew, especially the fact that the earth dog destroyed a whole tank wing of the Japanese army was even more miraculous, and this is why they knew why the troops had to bring so many dogs when they went south, so all the soldiers wanted to see how the earth dog dealt with the Japanese tanks.

Behind the trench, Xu Weiguo stared intently at the Japanese tank that squeaked and rushed up, and secretly calculated the distance between the Japanese tank and the trench.

The commander said before that there are limitations when using anti-tank dogs, first of all, the distance should not be too far, and if it is too far, it may be killed by the Japanese infantry when running. The second is that if the distance is too far, the dog is likely to be frightened and return, and then it may be themselves who will be bombed.

Therefore, the most suitable distance is to put the dog at a distance of 50 meters from the trench of the Japanese tank, and such a distance is only four or five seconds to get close to the tank at the speed of the earth dog, not only the Japanese can not react, but the dog has no other time to think.

Seeing that the Japanese army's chariot was already very close, Xu Weiguo said to the iron bull on the side in a little anxious way: "Old cow, it should be okay!" ”

"Wait, it's still a bit far!" Tie Niu said in a calm tone.

"Then wait a little longer, you must grasp the distance, if it is too close, the little devil's chariot will drive into the trench!" Xu Weiguo Road.

"Don't worry!" As he spoke, Tie Niu pulled out his flare gun and pulled the trigger.

With a crisp "bang", a red signal flare flew into the sky with a "boom", and then exploded in an instant, illuminating the entire battlefield.

Seeing the signal flare lifted into the air, the special combat team members behind the trench shouted at the same time: "Let the dogs go!" ”

Immediately afterwards, more than 30 native dogs were untied from their necks by the trainers, and the dogs, which had been hungry for a long time, jumped out of the trench and rushed towards the Japanese tanks dozens of meters away.

The Japanese troops on the Wuhan front line had not seen anti-tank dogs, and naturally they did not know what these dogs were used for, whether it was the Japanese soldiers on the chariot or the infantry following the chariot, they were all stunned. Everyone looked at each other, not understanding what the Chinese were going to do, but by the time they reacted, it was too late, and with a violent explosion, more than twenty combat vehicles were instantly paralyzed on the battlefield, and even the infantry behind them suffered many casualties.

More importantly, this time, the special combat team released 30 dogs at once, while there were only more than 20 combat vehicles on the battlefield, and the remaining few dogs rushed to the infantry on the side because they could not find the target. (To be continued.) )
