Chapter 1329 is full of harvests

In the absence of preparation, the last thing the Japanese army wanted to fight was a night battle. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Night battles were extremely detrimental to the characteristics of Japanese officers and soldiers, and under the cover of night, first of all, the artillery could not determine the firing elements, and the infantry and machine gunners were given the necessary protection; Secondly, the grenadiers equipped by the Japanese army to the squad or even the detachment have no crosshairs at all, and they all rely on the experience of the veterans to judge, and the dark night is the natural protection of the opponent, so that the grenadier soldiers will have huge errors in the judgment of the distance and direction, so that the Japanese army's squad and platoon level support fire grenadiers lose their due role; Again, the Japanese army on the battlefield attaches great importance to saving ammunition, so the Japanese army's light and heavy machine gunners are specially selected and trained from those with excellent marksmanship, the Japanese army's machine gun shooting is very threatening, very targeted, and can often be distributed according to the importance of the opponent's firepower point, which can achieve more results than the opponent, causing greater blows and damage, but in the dark night can not play this characteristic, and even under the tail flame of the machine gun muzzle spray, the personnel of the machine gun have nothing to hide, It will often become a key target for enemy snipers; In the end, the good marksmanship of the Japanese infantry was fed by hundreds of bullets, and the Japanese army in this period had a marksman in three soldiers, and the marksmanship was far superior to people's imagination. In the squadron, only the Anjia Army can practice shooting without scruples, and the marksmanship of the officers and men is similar to or slightly superior to that of the Japanese army, although the rest of the troops are much more generous than the original history because of the ammunition provided by the arsenals of the Jiangnan Group and the South Sichuan Group, but forty or fifty rounds of ammunition in a year is considered very good, and it cannot be compared with the Anjia Army and the Japanese army at all. In the dark night, the Japanese officers and soldiers were unable to give full play to the characteristics of good marksmanship, which was also an important reason why the Japanese army hated night battles.

Therefore, if they were attacked in the dark, if they were not mentally prepared, the Japanese army would generally be in chaos and lose its standards.

This is the case with the 6th Division tonight, when night falls, although the fighting is raging on the blocking position in the east, it is protected by the wide and deep of several layers of battle fronts, and most of the 36th Brigade and the divisions directly under the division and regiment placed in the town of Bang Kyun have settled down, eaten, rested, and recuperated for the next day's battle, but the sudden and fierce artillery bombardment from the west disrupted all this, and just when the officers and men were at a loss for what to do, they saw that the defense line of the Fourth Division, which they relied on, suddenly collapsed as a whole. The black-pressed rout rushed violently towards the garrison of the Sixth Division, which had no defensive line to cover its belly, and if it weren't for the timely notice from the division headquarters, the huge impact on the senses would have made people lose their psychological defense line in an instant.

The Japanese flares rose into the air one by one, illuminating the earth transparently, but this was originally a normal move to raise morale and distinguish between friend and foe, but it became the fuse for the collapse of the Sixth Division.

In addition, the officers and men of the Fourth Division were running around without a head, and the units directly under the 36th Brigade and the Sixth Division, which had finally formed a resistance formation, were scattered and scattered, and the entire formation was completely dispersed.

Moreover, with the flare to confirm the direction, the officers and men of the Fourth Division who fled in a hurry also found the direction, and after crossing the temporary defense line of the Sixth Division, they suddenly turned around and fled along the road to the south of Bangjun Town, and the position of the Sixth Wing of the Field Artillery, which was arranged in the right rear of the defense line of the Sixth Division and had just turned the muzzle to block the offensive route of the squadron with artillery fire, suddenly collapsed. At this time, if anyone goes against the crowd, what awaits him is definitely the end of being pushed down and trampled on mercilessly.

Lieutenant General Tani Shofu, Major General Ushijima Mitsuru and the officials of the entire Sixth Division Headquarters originally came to the front line in person to prevent the rout of the Fourth Division, but the impact of the rout was too terrible, and soon Gu Shoufu and a cadre of generals were also held hostage by this unstoppable crowd, and they ran to the south involuntarily.

The mighty flow of people fled all the way to the south, and then in the Longwang Temple, wrapped in a group of officials from the headquarters of the Fourth Division, they continued to run south, until they felt that they were far away from the Niudaokou four or five kilometers north of Baodi City, and the rout of the Fourth and Sixth Divisions could be regarded as stopping.

Gu Shoufu just wanted to order the troops to be reorganized on the spot, ready to counterattack Bangjun Town at any time, but at this moment, the dense gunfire was heard in the north again, in the dark night, the afterimage of tracer bullets was clear and eye-catching, under five or six flares, the black pressure of the pursuers was shocking, coupled with the loud trumpet and deafening shouts of killing when the squadron charged, the soldiers of the Fourth Division became restless again, and continued to run south with a wild shout, and the officers and soldiers of the Sixth Division were affected by the mood of the rout, and the division lost all its light and heavy firepower, I don't know how many troops the squadron that continues to chase has invested, and I am worried that the other party really has the intention of destroying myself, and I don't dare to stay longer, in desperation, Gu Shoufu had to take the team to continue to escape south, and even Baodi County, which is protected by the city, did not dare to stay more, and evacuated at full speed through the city to the southeast Ninghe area.

The sporadic gunfire behind him, as well as the flares that rose into the air from time to time, seemed to remind the Japanese officers and soldiers that the squadron was not far behind them, so that it was not until midnight that the Sixth Division stopped in Bamen Town, north of Ninghe County. Faced with a force of less than 3,000 people after gathering, Lieutenant General Gu Shoufu almost wanted to vomit blood, but at this time, the Fourth Division had already run away without a shadow, and Gu Shoufu did not even have a chance to find someone to vent, so he had to appeal to the front army headquarters. Gu Shoufu had already made up his mind at this time that he would not be able to carry out missions with the Fourth Division in the future, and even if he faced the enemy alone, it would be better than having such a "pig-like" friendly army.

In Bangjun Town, after the brave charging *** Division and the 17th Division broke through the defense of the 6th Division, Yang Guan and Zhang Zuying briefly discussed through walkie-talkies, and immediately decided to divide each brigade to continue to drive the rout to the south and occupy the positions abandoned by the Japanese army, while the rest of the brigades still kept attacking the position of the 11th Brigade of the 6th Division of the Japanese Army that was stuck by the 52nd Army from the east on the front line of Bingma Village in the east of Bangjun Town.

Major General Tokutaro Sakai, commander of the 11th Brigade, saw everything that happened in the rear in the telescope and was dumbfounded, but at this time, the 52nd Army was still attacking the Japanese defense line desperately, once the defense line was withdrawn, the 11th Brigade was very likely to evolve into a one-sided pursuit and annihilation under the front and rear attacks of the squadron, the pride of the Great Emperor and the honor of the main brigade of the main division, so that Sakai Tokutaro quickly made a decision to put down a position on the front line of Terracotta Village, and attacked from the west In the decisive battle, even if the "jade shattered" cannot fall into the majesty of the standing brigade of the Great *** Empire.

Replacing the new 1st Brigade and the 49th Brigade as arrows were the officers and men of the New 2nd Brigade and the 50th Brigade led by Li Yongjia and Jiao Yida, the old brothers of the An Jiajun.

Major General Tokutaro Sakai was very calm, and he set up the three brigades of the 47th Wing in batches at various strategic points in Bingma Village, and when the new 1st Brigade and the 49th Brigade attacked the entrance of the village, they immediately fired a dense stream of bullets from the sandbag positions on the streets, the windows of various houses, the corners of the walls, and the lookouts on the courtyard walls.

At this time, the mountain artillery, field artillery, mortars and grenadiers placed in the center of the village by the Japanese army began to exert their might and carried out intensive artillery bombardment at the entrance of the village, but they were quickly returned fire by the mortars of the Anjia army.

Soon, after cleaning up the mortars of the Japanese artillery, they moved forward, and began to aim at the Japanese army's firepower points to carry out accurate point fire, as the shells exploded one after another, the Japanese machine guns skillfully arranged on various key points quickly muted fire, and the officers and men of the new 2nd Brigade and the 50th Brigade of the Anjia Army took advantage of the situation to rush into the village and began to use grenades, submachine guns, pistols and other melee weapons to engage in fierce battles with the Japanese army.

The Japanese army is not brave, and the defensive firepower is not strong, but under the targeted attack of the Anjia army, the defense line collapsed layer by layer, and many devil soldiers had a large amount of explosives tied to their waists, and wanted to rush into the attacking crowd under the cover of night to detonate, but under the illumination of the flares in the sky, there was nothing to hide, and the snipers assigned to each attack group one by one accurately hit the eyebrows and died, and at the moment when their sinful bodies fell, the explosives on their waists exploded, implicating the meat bullets around them one after another. Violent explosions followed.

Hearing that the battle situation ahead was unfavorable, Sakai Tokutaro was anxious, but he had no choice but to send out the reserves in his hand according to the requests of the various departments to delay the attack of the Anjia army, but each time he couldn't hold out for long, he was exhausted, and he had to send reinforcements again. The feeling of being punched in the air or being eaten back on a spring was very bad, and the staff officers of the brigade and regiment headquarters already felt that the situation was not good, and they got up from their respective posts one after another, and gathered in front of the telephone that rang from time to time to ask for reinforcements, and paid close attention to the progress of the war.

Finally, under the fierce blow of the An Jia Army, the battle line was quickly *** to the vicinity of the headquarters of the 11th Brigade and Regiment. The Wing Commander of the 47th Wing, Kanda Masa Daisa, stumbled into the headquarters, clutched his bleeding left arm, and shouted in a hoarse voice:

"General, I can't resist it, quickly organize the brigade headquarters to move in, our wing has done its best, but the attack of the Chinese army is too fierce, and the wing has suffered heavy sacrifices and is unable to continue...... General, our 11th Brigade is the last to withdraw from the battle, and although we are defeated, we are still honored, please reserve some seeds for the brigade and wing! ”

Sakai Tokutaro raised his eyebrows, walked quickly in front of Kanda Zhengzhong Daisa, "snapped" was two slaps, and angrily reprimanded: "Kanda-kun, are you still not a soldier of the empire?" actually said such depressing words, the emperor's *** team is invincible, how can they retreat against the cowardly Chinese army? I order you to return to your command post and drive the Chinese army out of the village. ”

"General, it's the An Family Army, it's the An Family Army!"

Kanda Zhengzhong smiled miserably and raised his head strongly: "General, since the war in North China, how many divisions and brigades have fallen in the hands of the An Jia Army?" We retreated after a brutal battle, no shame! Now there are less than 1,000 people left in our wing, and if we don't evacuate, the entire brigade will really be annihilated by the Chinese army! This is something that even the 20th Division and the 109th Division, which are rumored to be jokes in the army, have never had! As long as the two wings of our brigade are there, it is only a matter of time before we rebuild, otherwise our brigade will not only be useless, but will become a disgrace to the emperor's first team, please think twice! ”

Tokutaro Sakai was shocked, and when he heard the gunshots and explosions getting closer and closer outside, he finally waved his hand in frustration: "Order all units to resist in place for five minutes, quickly move closer to the brigade headquarters, and then evacuate north and escape into Phoenix Mountain." Now the southern front has been basically occupied by the Chinese army, and only the mountainous areas in the north are the only way for the brigade to survive. Order Okamoto-kun to quickly blow up the mountain artillery and field artillery that can still be used, and he will personally lead the wing flag squadron to escort the military flag to the brigade headquarters, Kanda-kun, you should also be ready! ”

"Hi Yi!"

Kanda Masa bowed gratefully and turned to leave.

Tokutaro Sakai quickly commanded the brigade headquarters officer, destroyed the communication radio and code book, burned the documents, and then sorted out the weapons and equipment, and strode out of this place that made all the 11th Brigade generals heartbroken.

......

Baodi County.

The officers and men of the New 1st Brigade and the 49th Brigade of the Fifth Army Corps, who followed behind the rout of the 4th and 6th Divisions and rushed into the city, except for a small number of men and horses disguised as a large force to continue the pursuit, the rest of the units quickly seized various strategic points in the county town and arranged defensive lines to prevent the Japanese from killing the horses.

The off-road vehicle carrying Lu Xiong and Zhao Tingfang had just driven into the north gate of the county, and the good news came one after another:

The new 1st Brigade and 1st Regiment confiscated nearly 100 boxes of gold bricks and gold bars and more than 500 boxes of silver dollars that were sent to the Japanese puppet government and traitors in eastern Hebei from Tongxian, Xianghe and other places to hide here, with a total value of immeasurable, in addition to countless antiques, calligraphy and paintings, which dazzled Zhang Dakui and Li Jun, who were responsible for sealing this batch of treasures;

In order to prevent the traitors from escaping when the situation was not good, the new 1st Brigade and 2nd Regiment, under the identification of the people in the city, immediately surrounded the mansions of more than 10 notorious traitor leaders in the county town, and obtained millions of floating fortunes. The second regiment commander suggested that in order to avoid long nights and dreams, a public judgment meeting should be held overnight to shoot these traitor leaders on the spot to deter Xiaoxiao;

The 1st and 2nd Regiments of the 49th Brigade had a fierce battle with the Japanese troops of a wing in the south of the city, which were not transferred by the Japanese army, and unexpectedly, the battle that was originally thought to be very difficult turned out to be very easy, and after the Japanese troops in this unit were completely annihilated, the officers and men of the two regiments discovered that this place was a large ammunition warehouse of the Japanese army, which contained hundreds of antiaircraft guns and a large number of antiaircraft artillery shells in addition to ordinary guns and ammunition and more than 100 trucks, and it was estimated that the Japanese army specially transferred them from the country in order to guard against the attack of the Chinese Air Force. The Sixth Division had been stationed in Tangshan before, and the field anti-aircraft artillery brigade arranged in eastern Hebei belonged to the division.

Hearing this series of good news, Lu Xiong and Zhao Tingfang were surprised and delighted, and hurriedly stationed in the compound of the Japanese puppet government in the center of the city, and then informed the corps headquarters of the results of this trip by telegram and asked for specific handling opinions.
