Chapter 564: The Battle of Shuangliao of the Eastern Crusade
As for how the division guard brigade and the division search team of the 14th Division appeared here, I am afraid that no one can give Wang Weizhou an accurate answer, but Wang Weizhou knows that the division guard unit and the division search team are generally the most elite troops of the Japanese divisional and regimental military units, so Wang Weizhou instructed the 3rd Brigade and 3rd Regiment to be sure to completely annihilate this *** Sakatian Brigade. bean curd
However, the wish is good, but the reality is very cruel, although the Japanese division search team is now less than 300 people, but it occupies a favorable terrain, and the fortifications are relatively intact, if it were not for the bombing of the aviation unit, I am afraid that the 3rd Regiment would not have been able to strengthen this area with a brigade. Although the squadron now has the upper hand in the first battle, the search team of the Japanese army is also extremely tenacious.
At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the offensive and defensive battle of Aldu had been fought for five and a half hours, and the troops used by the 2nd Division for the attack had also been replaced by 3 brigades and 3 regiments to 3 brigades and 2 regiments, and the gunfire on the Japanese positions had become sparse.
At this time, Sakata Jiro was still very calm, there were less than 80 people left in the entire brigade, and even the deputy captain was broken, but Sakata Jiro did not regret it at all, he just regretted that he did not complete the task assigned to him and the guard brigade by His Excellency the division commander. As a true samurai, Jiro Sakata has no fear of death, but he still has his own emotions. Jiro Sakata did not hate the squadron that killed more than a thousand of his comrades, because in this battle they showed courage and combat effectiveness worthy of his admiration. Jiro Sakata now hates the Army Aviation Regiment directly under the Kwantung Army Command, and there has always been a saying in the Army that the Army Aviation Regiment is unreliable.
Originally, Jiro Sakata didn't believe it, but Jiro Sakata, who had participated in the Battle of Songhu, now really felt the huge gap between the Army Aviation Regiment and the Navy Aviation Regiment. Almost all the main forces of the air force were transferred to the Shanghai area to fight, flying around on the heads of the army and surface ships of the Empire of Japan every day, but no matter when the air force of the Empire of Japan arrived, the naval air force of the Empire of Japan would definitely take to the air as soon as possible to provide strong support to the army. But the mongrels of the army aviation regiment often make mistakes, as far as this battle is concerned, if in terms of combat effectiveness, although the opposite branch of the army is not bad, but it is definitely not the opponent of his Sakata brigade, but because the squadron is unusual, they even transferred all their only dozens of fighters to the Shuangliao line, and the aviation unit of the Kwantung Army was due to the suddenness of the incident, and the air force did not provide strong support to the defenders in time, so it led to the destruction of his brigade. What made Sakata Jiro even more entangled was that the reinforcements had already arrived less than 15 kilometers away from the battlefield, but due to the harassment and sneak attack by the Shina cavalry troops, coupled with the tracking and bombing of the Shina Air Force, the half-hour journey turned into an hour and a half, and it has not yet come.
Sakata Jiro knew the situation of the troops, and perhaps in the next moment, with a charge of the Shina people and a few minutes of hand-to-hand combat, his reinforced brigade would be completely annihilated, and there was no longer the name of the Sakata Brigade of the 14th Division of the Kwantung Army in the army of the Great Japanese Empire, and the name of Sakata Jiro would also be inscribed in the name of a defeated man in the big wall of the Yasukuni Shrine in Tokyo.
"Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock" has been fighting with the squadron for so many years, and the meaning of this melody is still very clear to Jiro Sakata.
"Hey! Ladies and gentlemen, the trumpet of the people of China has sounded, the time has come for us to sacrifice our lives for the empire, and on this day next year, hundreds of thousands of people of the Great Japanese Empire will come to the Yasukuni Shrine to worship us. Jiro Sakata still said coldly.
The soldiers of the Sakata Brigade also know what kind of person their captain is, in their minds, their captain has never taken his life seriously, and the idea of serving the country and being loyal to His Majesty the Emperor seems to have been engraved in the heart of the captain, so they don't expect Captain Sakata to cherish their lives, after all, how can a person who doesn't take his own life seriously can take other people's lives seriously.
Hearing Sakata's order, the remaining 7th and 80th Japanese soldiers all drew their bayonets pinned to their waists, and then loaded the bayonets as quickly as possible, and then waited for Captain Sakata's order.
However, at this time, there was a rumbling chariot behind them, and Sakata and the others turned to look back, and dozens of Empire-made Type 97 chariots suddenly appeared in their sight, and the imperial flag printed on the body indicated that this chariot unit must be reinforcements sent by the Empire.
"Yamamoto, look, it's the troops of the Empire, we have been saved"
"Yaga, why did these stupid guys arrive so late, if they had come ten minutes earlier, the mountain would not have died"
"Sato, you hold on, our reinforcements have arrived, we are saved"
There was a burst of excitement on the Japanese position, and even Sakata Jiro was relieved, and at the same time he was glad that he had just hesitated for a few seconds, which caused the order to be issued a little late, and the number of the Sakata Brigade was saved, according to the imperial decree, as long as the basic structure of the army and the commander and the military flag of the unit are still there, then this army is still eligible to be rebuilt, and they did perform very well in this battle, even His Excellency the division commander will not say anything, as long as he is alive The Sakata Brigade can still exist, Even if he died, the search party of the 14th Division would still exist, but perhaps it would become the Yamada Brigade, the latter the Sato Brigade, and so on.
There was excitement and excitement on the Japanese position, and the squadron on the opposite side, which had already sounded the trumpet of the charge, had to stop as soon as it launched a charge.
"Report: A large number of Japanese combat vehicles were found one thousand meters ahead, the model is the latest Type 97 combat vehicle produced by the Japanese army, and there is no infantry."
"How many?"
"30-35 cars"
"Immediately order the Second Regiment to stop the charge and prepare for a big battle!"
"Yes!"
After the operator went out, Wang Weizhou frowned and said: "Lao Jiang, the little devil's reinforcements have arrived, Xu Si's cavalry regiment still failed to hold them back, our intelligence officers are confused this time, the Japanese army has so many tanks, and such important information has not been reported to the command, dereliction of duty." ”
"Yes, letting the cavalry troops drag the chariot troops is purely blind, Xu Si's cavalry regiment is afraid that the losses this time will be not small, otherwise with that kid's character, he would have reported to the command headquarters a long time ago." Jiang Feng also responded.
"Xiao Zhang, go check with me, has Xu Si's cavalry regiment returned, what are the losses, let him quickly send a battle summary to the command headquarters." Wang Weizhou said.
"Yes, Commander, I'll go now!"
"Division commander, it's a pity, I didn't completely annihilate the *** reinforced brigade for so long a day, I'm not reconciled!" Jiang Feng said a little depressed.
"Lao Jiang, the Japanese army has deployed a total of nearly 50,000 people in the Shuangliao area, and the vanguard of our army is also 50,000 people, it is difficult for us to completely annihilate the Kwantung Army with the same number of troops, and we must not regard the Kwantung Army as the Japanese army in the Guan, let alone the puppet army in the northeast as the puppet army in the Guannai, the two cannot be compared. As for the guard brigade and the divisional search team of the 14th Division, it is not important, the important thing is that through this battle we have attracted more Japanese troops to come, and do not forget the strategic purpose of our eastward advance operation. Besides, I'm sure there's the most little devils on the other side right now... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
