This is Aldu on October 30, 1943, a place that was only a harsh sandy area in later generations, unlike a small but still important town like it is today. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This is the 18th day of the Eastern Expedition campaign launched by the Saibei Corps against the Kwantung Army, from the battle on October 12, it has been a full 18 days now, in this 18-day battle, Ma Zheng's department overcame thorns and thorns, wiped out the Japanese puppet army on the Horqin grassland, and recovered Tongliao, Kezuohouqi, Naiman, Aluqi, Kailu and other areas, and the front of the army pointed directly at Shuangliao, the gateway of the western Liaoning Plain.

Ma Desheng's attack group has been attacking the Ardu area for 26 hours in a row, and the 3rd Integrated Division, which is marching the fastest, has now advanced 32 kilometers, 20 kilometers faster than expected.

At dawn and after a night of fighting, the soldiers and officers on both sides were already very tired, but the supreme commanders of both sides still did not want to retreat.

So after a series of emergency changes of guards, the battle continued. This time, the three divisions and one brigade were responsible for the attack, while the defending side was the 27th Brigade Uemura Wing, the artillery team directly under the brigade, the tank wing, and so on.

Today's battle was not easy to fight, and it was much more difficult than yesterday's, because today's Japanese aviation units reacted, and 12 Japanese fighters arrived at the position of the Third Division just after dawn.

Maybe it was luck, it happened to happen that the first brigade and the second brigade changed guards, and the troops had not all entered the position, plus the sky was still only cloudy, and the line of sight was not good, so the bombing of the Japanese fighters only caused more than a dozen casualties to the second brigade, and the losses were very small.

Although the Japanese bombing caused small casualties, it gave Ma Desheng and others a reminder that at this time, the battle between the Saibei Corps and the Kwantung Army had started in an all-round way, and this all-round not only referred to the battle on land, but also included the battle in the sky.

It is clear to itself that compared with the strong strength of the aviation unit of the Kwantung Army, the aviation unit of the Saibei Corps is a scum, and the number of fighters alone is not half a star worse than that of the two sides.

In addition to more than 220 fully equipped fighters of the latest fighters, the Kwantung Army also has more than 150 bombers, in addition to the Kwantung Army also has more than 200 old fighters of Zhang Xueliang's Northeast Army captured. That is to say, there are as many as 570 fighters that can be mobilized by the Kwantung Army, and this is not counting the more than 150 Type 96 fighters in North Korea.

In contrast, the aviation unit of the Saibei Corps is a cockroach in front of the Kwantung Army, although not long ago the Corps has just been supplemented by 150 P40 fighters, plus the original 110, the total number is about 260, which is only about half of the Japanese army.

More importantly, there is also a huge gap in the performance of the fighters of the two sides, in the face of the Japanese Zero fighters, whether it is the 96 type fighters captured by the Japanese army or the P40 fighters of the United States, they do not have a combat advantage, if it is not for Ma Zheng who happens to know the weakness of the Zero fighters, I am afraid that the fighters of the Saibei Corps will not even have a chance to take off.

But even so, after the last war, the losses of Ma Zheng's aviation unit are still not small, and now there are less than 160 fighters in all the fighters, but fortunately, Ma Zheng has called his daughter-in-law and asked her to immediately order 200 P40 fighters from the United States, and the United States has also agreed to Huaxia's application.

But the problem is that far water can't quench the thirst of the near, and before the second batch of planes landed in North China, Ma Zheng could only use the remaining 160 fighters to fight against the aviation of the Kwantung Army and the North China Front.

Therefore, in the past few days, Ma Zheng can only order the Army Aviation Brigade to take advantage of the Japanese not to react and look for an opportunity to do a vote, and at other times it must not attack, once it is entangled by the Japanese fighters, the consequences will be disastrous.

Without the attack of the army aviation unit of the Saibei Corps, the Japanese army gradually gained a firm foothold in the Aldu area, while the Japanese aviation unit was as excited as if it had taken an aphrodisiac, and basically came every two hours, and each time it had to drop a large number of aerial bombs on the head of Ma Desheng's subordinates.

Although the air defense positions of Ma Desheng's headquarters were also complete, they still could not support such bombing, and by the evening, the reorganized third division and one brigade that were the main attackers were a little overwhelmed.

The casualties of the troops are good to say, because the preparation is relatively sufficient, so the casualties are still within the acceptable range, but the weapons and equipment of the troops have been destroyed a lot, especially the artillery regiment that the first brigade has just borrowed from the division headquarters, and before it has played much role, it was destroyed by the Japanese aviation unit 6 mountain guns, and the entire artillery regiment has a total of 24 mountain guns, so it was destroyed by the Japanese fighters by a quarter, not only Ma Desheng felt heartache, even Ma Zheng, who was far away in Chengde, also sent a report to inquire after learning the news, It's a pity that the tone can't be expressed.

Although the battle on the second day was not smooth, Ma Desheng's department still beat the Japanese 14th Infantry Division to cry and cry. Originally, Major General Inoue thought that it would be enough for them to have a brigade to guard the small place of Aldu, and his brigade was still a reinforced infantry brigade, counting the total strength of the Imperial Allied Army that cooperated with the operation exceeded 10,000.

What's more, the terrain in the Aldu area is not conducive to the attack of large troops, and no matter how powerful the people of China are, they can only put one or two infantry regiments in front of this terrain, and no matter how much they are, it is not much use, so he only sent one infantry wing and several thousand directly subordinate troops to participate in the battle.

However, Ma Desheng did not expect to launch an attack from the south and north of the Japanese position, although the terrain in these two directions was not conducive to the attack, but Ma Desheng in order to speed up the attrition of the Japanese army, knowing that such an attack was somewhat worth the loss, but still expanded the battlefield.

In a hurry, Major General Inoue Taro had to send the Iwata Wing that had just been withdrawn again, so that the reserves in the hands of Major General Inoue were only a few hundred people, and the situation was getting worse and worse, at this time Major General Inoue realized how naïve and ridiculous his idea was, and at the same time he also thought of Chief of Staff Yoshimura's previous suggestion.

However, as a major general brigade commander, Major General Inoue Taro has his own pride, and he is unwilling to admit that his command level and strategic vision are not as good as that of a mere chief of staff of Nakasa, and this fact makes him feel embarrassed.

Immediately, Major General Inoue ordered the troops to shrink their forces to the center of Aldu town on the one hand, and on the other hand, ordered the engineer corps directly under the brigade to build a new position along the existing Japanese position, and he wanted to use the strong position to consume the living strength of the Chinese people.

However, to the horror of Major General Taro Inoue, at about 12 o'clock in the evening of the 30th, a huge roar came from the position of the Shina people, and the dazzling lights kept coming from afar, and the rumbling roar was like the roar of millions of monsters. The experienced Major General Inoue listened attentively for a while and knew that this was the chariot unit of the Zhina people, and there should be no less than a few hundred vehicles.

Major General Inoue and Pale Yoshimura Nakasa glanced at each other, and they both saw surprise and fear in each other's eyes, if so many chariots were to launch a madness, it was really not something that the current 27th Infantry Brigade could bear.

You must know that the town of Aldu, where the 27th Infantry Brigade is located, has almost no strategic commanding heights to rely on, and there is a flat grassland in the middle from Aldu to Shuangliao City, which is extremely suitable for the charge of chariot troops.

More importantly, in the first two days of fighting, the Chinese did not use tank troops, and the few mountain guns were wiped out by the air force of the Empire of Japan, so when building defensive positions, the infantry did not build anti-tank trenches, because that kind of trench was not only wide but also long, and the amount of work was extremely heavy, and it was obviously not suitable for the 27th Infantry Brigade to build anti-tank trenches in a hurry.

But I didn't expect the Chinese tank troops to arrive at this juncture, which is really fatal. Inoue Taro couldn't care about the face problem anymore, he grabbed the phone on the desk and dialed directly to Lieutenant General Jingguan Takasho in Shuangliao City.
