[Anti-Japanese Iron Blood King] Chapter 406: Soldiers Coming to the City (Ask for subscriptions, ask for monthly passes, ask for everything!) ）

It is no wonder that the Japanese army was surprised, in order to win this battle, Ma Zheng really made a bloody investment, not only used the artillery brigade and armored regiment directly under the military region, but even used the new weapons that were secretly produced.

In addition to the AK47 assault rifle, there was also a very important individual heavy weapon in later generations - bazooka, that is, the kind of shoulder-fired artillery that terrified the Japanese army.

Speaking of bazooka, everyone must be familiar with it, this is a portable anti-tank weapon that fires rockets, mainly fires rocket-piercing shells, but can also launch rocket-propelled grenades or other rockets, which are used to strike tanks, armored vehicles, infantry fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers, military equipment and destroy fortifications at close range, and can also be used to kill and injure living targets or complete other tactical tasks.

The most important feature of the bazooka is that it is small in quality, simple in structure, low in price, and easy to use, so after the AK47 assault rifle was produced in the military industry department, Ma Zheng asked Minister Feng to lead people to develop the bazooka, of course, it is still the same as AK47, Ma Zheng got all the relevant design drawings and specifications in advance, and the main task of Feng An and others is to turn the product from drawings into physical objects.

Compared with the design drawing from scratch, it is much simpler to follow the drawing. In addition, the equipment of the military factory of the Suicha Military Region was not bad, so it was quickly produced in kind, and the effect was quite good after inspection, so Ma Zheng ordered the military industry department to start production at full capacity.

Originally, Ma Zheng didn't plan to show these two sharp weapons so early, but thinking that the main target of this attack was the 16th Division, the culprit of the Nanjing Massacre, Ma Zheng couldn't help but show his fangs in advance.

Ma Zheng handed over to Feng An an American-made 60mm M1 rocket launcher, which was called "Bazooka" by US soldiers because it resembled a trumpet-like instrument called "Bazooka". "Bazooka" uses steel launchers that open at both ends to make the weapon recoilless, and the M1 rocket launcher is equipped with mechanical sights, with an effective range of less than 250 meters, a vertical armor piercing thickness of 120~200 mm, and a weapon system weighing 7 kg.

Ma Zheng is well aware of the power of the AK47 assault rifle plus the rocket launcher, and it can be said that the Eighth Route Army, equipped with these two advanced weapons, is not afraid of the provocation of any army of any powerful country in the world. Those who dare to show their fangs have only one result, and that is to be ruthlessly crushed.

But unfortunately, due to limited production capacity, before the Battle of Zhangjiakou began, a total of 1,200 AK47 assault rifles were produced, and even fewer bazookas, only 118 were sent to the front line by the Ministry of Military Industry, and the ammunition was also pitiful, only 3,400 armor-piercing shells.

Although it was small, Ma Zheng felt that it was enough to deal with the enemy in Zhangjiakou, after all, the strength of the 16th Division had declined extremely seriously, and even if it did not have these advanced weapons, it might not be the opponent of the Suicha Military Region.

It is precisely because of these two new types of equipment that Ma Zheng is so confident in facing the 16th Division. Otherwise, with the strength of the Suicha Military Region, even if the 16th Division is completely annihilated, it will have to pay an extremely heavy price.

Ma Zheng divided these weapons into two, and in addition to equipping the special operations brigade, Ma Zheng deliberately equipped all these weapons with the two reinforced battalions of the guard brigade directly under the military region, and took out the two reinforced battalions separately to form a temporary assault regiment with a three-battalion system.

In fact, since the capture of more than 100 tanks and armored vehicles of the Fourth Division, Ma Zheng has had an impulse to form a powerful mechanized infantry as the most powerful assault force in the military region. However, due to time constraints, this idea is still in Ma Zheng's mind, and when the battle is over, Ma Zheng decides to implement this plan immediately, and this temporary assault regiment is also an important part of the formation of mechanized troops.

Sure enough, this assault regiment did not disappoint Ma Zheng, and its performance in the battle was amazing. Although the Japanese army deployed nearly 5,000 people on the front line of Guoleizhuang Town, they were forced to retreat by this assault regiment, which numbered less than 1,500 people.

At three o'clock in the morning of the 28th, all the defense lines of Guo Leizhuang Town were all defeated, and one part of the puppet army was annihilated in more than 5,000 days, while the rest retreated in the direction of Anjiapu, and at the same time asked for help from the 16th Division in Zhangjiakou City.

After receiving the telegram for help from the front-line troops, Lieutenant General Fujie Keipu was greatly surprised, he really couldn't imagine that the more than 5,000 elites would only hold out for less than an hour before they were beaten down again, and Guo Leizhuang Town was also lost.

In desperation, Fujijiang Huipu had to order the 16th Engineer Wing and Cavalry Wing in Zhangjiakou City to immediately reinforce Anjiapu, and at the same time ordered the 1st Brigade of the 19th Wing stationed in Shanfangbao and the 2nd Brigade stationed in Wanquan Town to immediately return to Zhangjiakou.

Knowing that the defenders in Zhangjiakou City had been transferred out again, Ma Zheng immediately ordered the independent brigade in the direction of Shangyi to take immediate action.

After receiving Ma Zheng's order, Xing Chao, the commander of the independent brigade, immediately issued an order to the front-line troops to surprise the troops, more than 120 tanks opened the way, more than 50 armored vehicles in the middle, and more than 300 cars followed up, and there was also a cavalry regiment to follow the army, and at the front of the troops, Tie Niu personally led more than 200 members of the special operations brigade to clear the obstacles for the large troops.

At three o'clock, the vanguard arrived at Jiashihe Town, which was the headquarters of the 33rd Wing of the Japanese Army and the first brigade, and also the most important stronghold of the Japanese army between Zhangjiakou and Shangyi.

Ma Zheng's troops suddenly approached the city, which surprised Noda Kengo Daisa, the 33rd Wing of the Japanese Army, and on the one hand reported to the direction of Zhangjiakou, on the other hand, he hurriedly organized troops to meet the Eighth Route Army.

However, what people did not expect was that at the beginning of the battle, the tank group of the Eighth Route Army launched a charge against Jiashihe Town under the cover of a large number of artillery, and the first brigade of the 33rd Wing of the Japanese Army was crushed without even organizing effective resistance.

Although the Japanese counterattack during this period was also extremely fierce, but it was of little use, in the face of the powerful armored group, the 1st Brigade of the 33rd Wing, which lacked anti-tank weapons, was a group of live targets, and soon the Japanese troops in Jiashihe Town collapsed and retreated to the town of Ximalin.

However, after all, the Japanese army was an ordinary infantry, and its speed was not comparable to that of Ma Zheng's mechanized troops, and then the independent brigade caught up with the remnants of the 33rd Wing that fled in a hurry, gathered and annihilated them, and then the troops took Ximalin Town lightly, and defeated the second brigade of the 33rd Wing, forcing its remnants to retreat to Zhangjiakou City.

Originally, today he received a telegram from the front army from the base camp, saying that the imperial army had made another great achievement in northern Jiangxi, defeating nearly 200,000 troops of the four group armies of China in less than 10 days, completely capturing Nanchang, an important town in northern Jiangxi, and defeating the most important bridgehead in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.

This news made Fujie Keipu, who had been very depressed recently, very happy, and immediately called the Japanese puppet high-ranking officials to discuss Zhu Jie's related activities. After a military meeting in the evening, Fujie even asked the guards to summon two Japanese geisha, and after some amusement, the Japanese general quickly turned into a pervert and pounced on the two geisha who were deliberately welcome.

Fujie Meguma had been in a good night, but he was woken up by the guards as soon as he fell asleep, because the Shina people launched an unprecedented large-scale attack on the 16th Division. So far, the bad news has come one after another, first several defensive lines in the direction of Huai'an have been broken through by the Zhina people in a very short period of time, and the troops of Tubalu have already attacked Anjiabao, which is not far from Zhangjiakou City.

Although there is still a Wanquan County between Anjiapu and Zhangjiakou, Fujie Huipu is still very worried that with the combat effectiveness shown by the people of China, Anjiapu and Wanquan County may not be able to hold out for long.

However, a wave of unsettled waves broke out, the war on the western front had not yet been reversed, and there was bad news on the northern front, and another Tubalu suddenly appeared in Jiashihe Town, and launched a fierce attack on Jiashihe Town. The most terrifying thing is that only ten minutes later, the defenders of Jiashihe Town lost contact with the division headquarters, and then Ximalin Town also suffered such a strange thing.

But before the division headquarters could figure out what was going on, news came from outside the city that the Eighth Road of China had already arrived in the city. (To be continued.) )
