Chapter 753: The Hope of the Japanese Army
The second company, which blasted and assaulted from the other side of the street, was not far behind, and broke through more than 30 meters in just half an hour. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
While successfully eliminating more than 30 devils, all his own casualties added up to only three people.
Because all the devils hiding in the houses on both sides of the street were wiped out, the three companies that attacked from the street, under the cover of strong firepower, almost did not take much effort to advance with the other two companies and attacked more than 30 meters forward.
"Good, good fight. Tell Company Commander Li and Company Commander Huang to continue to assault forward with explosives packs. The battalion commander who heard the good news breathed a sigh of relief and ordered with an excited face.
The deputy battalion commander next to him was also excited, according to the current casualty ratio and the speed of the assault, one battalion can take the entire street in a day at most. More importantly, the casualties of the 1st Battalion were completely manageable.
However, thinking of the huge consumption of more than 60 explosives bags in just half an hour, the deputy battalion commander in charge of logistics and supply hurriedly reminded: "Battalion commander, the regiment headquarters only gave us more than 200 explosives bags, and if we continue to consume them like this, we will run out of explosives in two hours at most." ”
"Then I was still stunned, and immediately sent someone to the back to ask the regiment commander for explosives. The lives of my brothers are much more important than explosives, and if there were no explosives, I would rather stop here and not attack! The battalion commander ordered without thinking.
After the news reached the ears of the regiment commander behind, the regiment commander did not dare to slack off, and immediately asked the division commander Li Xiaohu for explosives, and Li Xiaohu followed up and asked Li Zhilong for explosives.
Although Li Zhilong believed in Yang Xingguo's explosive assault tactics, before the specific attack, Li Zhilong still had a little worry in his heart.
In order to avoid accidents, the troops who were supposed to set off to ambush Dashan Rock two hours ago have not left until now.
Now after receiving the good news from the front, Li Zhilong immediately relieved.
Facing the chief of staff, he ordered: "Order the ambush troops, set off immediately, and go to our ambush site to stand by." In terms of time, the commander will be able to reach the ambush site in ten hours. The entire ambush battle is commanded by the commander himself, and the chief of staff you lead the team over and assist the commander in directing the battle. ”
"The command has all the troops left, leaving one company on guard, and the rest of the people all go to the back to help the logistics troops make explosives packs, complete one and leave one for the guard division to send one, so that the guard division can be assigned to the attacking troops as soon as possible."
The six attacking units fought with explosives packs for nearly three hours, and each battalion advanced almost three hundred meters later. Lieutenant General Matsuda in the war room of the Manchurian Army Headquarters, located in the city of Dalian, received the news.
There is no doubt that after receiving the news, Lieutenant General Matsuda scolded his subordinates.
After scolding, he immediately frowned, staring at the Dalian city defense map to think about the solution.
"Division commander, the Liaodong Army is too cunning, we have no solution to their blasting, we can only fight with the Liaodong Army, hoping to hold on until the commander-in-chief returns!"
Matsuda, who was still frowning just now, showed a thoughtful expression when the chief of staff complained like this.
After staring at the map and drawing for half a minute, his eyes lit up and he replied: "It's not a good way to fight consumption." ”
"Dalian City is too big, and the Liaodong Army, which is advancing in unison, wants to kill all the way to our headquarters, and there are at least 1,500 meters left. According to the current offensive speed of the Liaodong Army, it will take at least fifteen hours. ”
"Besides, even if the Liaodong Army kills all the way to our headquarters, we can continue to retreat. After all, we still have more than a thousand meters behind us to reach the military port occupied by the Liaodong Army. As long as we have troops in the city, it will take ten hours for the Liaodong army to take the entire city of Dalian. I believe that the commander-in-chief will be able to completely take Dalian by the Liaodong Army, or at least drive back to Dalian, and then we will be saved. ”
The chief of staff's solemn face also showed a hint of hope, and he stared at the map with suspicion for a full minute before affirming: "Division commander, it's really possible, so what should we do next." ”
Matsuda did not hesitate, and ordered with a serious face: "There are only troops left in the city, and the guard brigade will stay, and the squad will be responsible for supervising the battlefield as a unit." The two brigades that had been withdrawn from the front were left behind to serve as the last reserve in our hands, and all the other troops were sent out and scattered to every house in the city of Dalian. In the past two days, I will use every house in Dalian City to fight with the Liaodong Army, and even if I can't block the attack of the Liaodong Army, I will kill and wound a large number of Liaodong Army in the battle. ”
When the division commander gave the order in a murderous manner, the 20,000 people led by Dashanyan had already rushed for two hours.
Because the troops were too tired, they only rested for less than half an hour just now. The troops had only been walking for two hours, and Da Shanyan clearly felt that the marching speed of his subordinates was slowing down a little.
Although it is physically exhausting, it may even drain the last bit of physical strength of his subordinates, and even if he arrives in Dalian, he will have no combat effectiveness because he has no physical strength.
But Dashan Yan still had no intention of letting his subordinates stop and rest.
For Dashanyan, Dalian is too important. If he really loses Dalian, it will definitely be more difficult for the Japanese army to enter Liaodong or even the entire three eastern provinces in the future.
Therefore, as long as there is a little hope, Dashanyan will not give up reinforcing Dalian.
At this time, if Yang Xingguo knew that Dashanyan would not hesitate to use the physical strength of more than 20,000 soldiers under his command to reinforce Dalian City, then he would definitely be so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.
According to Dashanyan's method, the physical strength of more than 20,000 Japanese troops would be completely exhausted after holding out for four or five hours at most.
At that time, even if the devil continues to hurry, it will be with perseverance and a very mechanical hurry.
In this case, the devil's reaction speed must be several times slower than usual. As for their combat effectiveness, it will also be reduced to two or three percent of their usual strength due to physical exhaustion.
If the Liaodong Army suddenly launched an attack on them at this time, the 20,000 Japanese troops would only have 20% of their usual combat strength for at least ten minutes, or even longer.
And ten minutes is enough time for the Liaodong Army to inflict heavy casualties on them, and even a devastating blow is possible.
Of course, Yang Xingguo, who was on the way, didn't know all this yet.
However, Yang Xingguo was confident that as long as there was still hope for reinforcement of Dalian City in Dashanyan's heart, and he would reinforce Dalian City at all costs, Yang Xingguo would be confident that he would deal a devastating blow to Dashanyan with hundreds of artillery pieces and 10,000 troops.
The road that would have taken ten hours to complete, in order to wipe out all the Japanese troops in the three eastern provinces in one fell swoop, completely take the three northeastern provinces, and solve the last troubles in the three northeastern provinces, Yang Xingguo, who was quick to get his horse, took only eight hours.
