Chapter 532: The War of Resistance and the Annihilation of the Enemy in the Beida Camp (3)
Chapter 532: Annihilation of the Enemy in the Northern Battalion of the Anti-Japanese War (3)
The Japanese army's stabbing skills are too fierce, Jiang Mingwen had only heard that the Japanese army attached great importance to stabbing training before, but he had not seen it, let alone fought desperately on the battlefield. However, this time it really opened his eyes, but the price he paid for it was too big.
The normal establishment of a squadron of the Japanese army is 180 people, and although the garrison is not a field unit, because the garrison performs a very special task of protecting the road in Manchuria, they are a unit formed according to the A type of field force, and the squadron on Kawashima is 205 people.
The 3rd Battalion of the 7th Brigade of the Northeast Army had more than 500 people, twice as many as the Japanese army, but they did not take advantage of the white-knuckle battle between the two sides, and even suffered a big loss.
Although the third battalion killed more than 50 Japanese soldiers, but it also lost 70 or 80 people, such a result was at the beginning of the contact between the two sides, some lone Japanese soldiers were stabbed to death by the soldiers of the third battalion, so that the third battalion took some advantage. If this were not the case, the ratio of the battle losses of the three battalions to the Japanese army in white-knuckle battles should have been more than two to one.
Although the Japanese army's stabbing skills are super strong, the third battalion now has more than 400 people, which is more than enough to deal with dozens of Japanese soldiers, and there are many people who are now a little unable to show it.
Jiang Mingwen was very worried about the safety of this company of the Fourth Route Army, and he sent out a company to prepare to support the Fourth Route Army. After all, the Fourth Route Army took the initiative to come to Beidaying to help the Northeast Army at the most dangerous time for the Seventh Brigade, which made the 620th Regiment feel guilty. If the other party loses too much, they will not be able to go.
However, before Jiang Mingwen's troops came to support, the Fourth Route Army and the Japanese army easily divided the victory and defeat in a white-knuckle battle.
The officers and men of this company of the Fourth Route Army generally have very good skills in individual fighting, although they cannot be said to be stronger than the Japanese army, but in Jiang Mingwen's opinion, at least they are much stronger than the Northeast Army. Moreover, the Fourth Route Army is very methodical, they are not like the Northeast Army, relying on more people to rush up, but a group of three people, a group of six people, cooperate with each other very closely, in the white-knuckle battle, not only every Japanese soldier has to face the bayonet threat of several Fourth Route Army soldiers at the same time, the Fourth Route Army soldiers also cover each other, and the soldiers in a good position can rest assured to assassinate the Japanese army without any scruples, and the bayonet that stabbed him will have the soldiers next to him to dissolve it.
When encountering a large number of Japanese troops, often several groups of soldiers of the Fourth Route Army can continue to create fighters through the cooperation of several groups.
Although the Japanese army also had groups of three or two, in terms of mutual cooperation, it was obviously not as skilled as the Fourth Route Army, nor was the Fourth Route Army more disciplined.
This style of play made the dozens of Japanese soldiers who rushed over all of them rushed over, and they were restrained everywhere, unable to use their hands and feet, and some Japanese soldiers continued to scream and fall to the ground and die.
In the crowd of the Fourth Route Army, there is also a big black man who is very conspicuous, although Jiang Mingwen does not know this person, but from the uniform he is wearing, it can be recognized from the uniform, this person is a member of the guard team of the Ordnance Industry Administration.
This big black man was holding a Japanese saber, and his knife skills were very deep, and he was rampaging through the orderly ranks of the Fourth Route Army. A saber flashed brightly, flying left and right, and cut down four or five Japanese soldiers in a row. After a while, there were only a dozen Japanese soldiers left, and they were still struggling.
Jiang Mingwen couldn't be surprised at this time, because Kawashima and dozens of Japanese soldiers had already seized a platoon of barracks of the 621st Regiment and were attacking from the mén window. Jiang Mingwen immediately ordered the company that had just come out of Chōu to occupy the favorable terrain and surround the barracks occupied by the Japanese army.
What blocked the way of the Japanese army was a battalion led by Wang Tiehan himself, as well as the personnel of the 621st Regiment, the 619th Regiment and the brigade troops who had been scattered along the way.
These people were chased by the Japanese army because they had no weapons, and when they heard the sound of Jīlie's gunshots, they knew that someone dared to disobey the order and take up arms to fight with the Japanese army, and they all gathered excitedly to the place where the guns were fired, and there were more than 1,000 people.
At this time, not only the company of the Fourth Route Army had already eliminated the Japanese troops who were engaged in a white-knuckle battle with them, but Jiang Mingwen's third battalion had also annihilated all the Japanese troops at this time. The 3rd Battalion then surrounded the barracks occupied by Kawashima.
The barracks occupied by Kawashima was a battalion headquarters of the 621st Regiment, which was distributed in a concave shape, with a relatively open front and back, and was not connected to other houses on the east and west sides, and was 70 meters away from the nearest house, which was very conducive to defense. The fighters of the third battalion had already occupied the commanding heights of the houses on all sides, suppressing the fire of the troops on Kawashima. ,
The Seventh Brigade is worthy of being the jīng sharp of the Northeast Army, and each squad has a tǐng light machine gun to carry out firepower against shè, and it does not suffer at all. Moreover, due to the terrain and shelter, not to mention the other troops, even the third battalion itself had more than 200 people hiding behind the dead end to deal with the shè attack, waiting for further orders.
Seeing that Kawashima had been surrounded and it was only a matter of time before he was eliminated, Wang Tiehan ordered the second battalion that followed him to go to Beimén to support, and ordered Jiang Mingwen to immediately organize the third battalion to destroy Kawashima.
As for the personnel of the 621st Regiment, the 619th Regiment and the brigade troops who were following behind him, Wang Tiehan had already had an idea, and said to Guan Yùheng: "Okay, these people will be given to you, you organize them as soon as possible, take the troops of the Fourth Route Army and the scattered personnel of these various units, immediately go to get weapons, search for the remnants of the enemy in the camp again, and see if there are any of our people who are hiding." ”
Guan Yùheng understood what Wang Tiehan meant, although these stragglers did need someone to organize them quickly, but Wang Tiehan saw that although Guan Yùheng defected to the Fourth Route Army as the commander of the regiment, he was still the commander of the light pole, and there was not a single soldier under him, which was for Guan Yùheng's sake, and organized a force for him first.
Guan Yiheng comprehended, immediately gathered these stragglers aside, divided them into several teams according to the units where these people were originally located, designated a temporary person in charge, and then under the cover of the company of the Fourth Route Army, they went to their respective arsenals to get weapons, search for the remnants of the enemy, and treat the wounded.
Because of the bullets, the remnants of Kawashima were stationed in the barracks, and rarely returned fire at the heavy blows of the three battalions, and they only occasionally returned fire with rifles when the Northeast Army did not charge. However, the Japanese army's marksmanship seemed to be very good, and after a while, more than a dozen people had been killed in the machine gun shè on the roof.
Jiang Mingwen was so angry that he adjusted all the machine guns to the roof, and more than 30 tǐng light machine guns launched fierce attacks on the Japanese army from the commanding heights on all sides, so that they could suppress the Japanese army.
If you want to annihilate the Japanese troops stationed in the barracks, there are only two ways, one is to rush to the front, throw grenades into the barracks, and destroy the Japanese troops house by house; Another option is to blow up the barracks with artillery.
Under the suppression of dense firepower, Jiang Mingwen organized his troops to approach the barracks held by the Japanese army from three sides.
The Japanese army quickly sensed the danger, but in the dense rain of bullets of the three battalions, it was impossible to organize the three battalions to approach from the mén window, but the Japanese army had a very good way, in addition to constantly throwing grenades from the window, they also opened a lot of shè holes in the wall, and kept striking outward from the shè holes.
In this way, Kawashima repelled three attacks by the third battalion in a company, leaving the third battalion with a loss of more than twenty people.
Seeing that Jiang Mingwen was going to organize troops to attack like this, Wang Tiehan immediately stopped Jiang Mingwen: "Company Commander Jiang, this can't be done, the casualties are too great." “
He also ordered the herald who was following him: "Go, pass my order, let the artillery even pull up their battle defense guns for me, damn it, Lao Tzu will blow these little devils to pieces." ”
In addition to the cavalry company, a heavy mortar company, a tank convoy and a light tank company with 12 light tanks, and a special service company, and a heavy mortar company with 120mm and 150mm each 6mén, the Seventh Brigade has three battalions and four companies directly under the brigade, and there are also artillery companies, special service companies, and communications companies directly under the regiment. The artillery battery had 6mén 60mm mortars and 6mén 37mm battle defense guns. The battle defense artillery is known as the flat shè cannon in the northeast.
Without waiting for the herald to give the order, Guan Yùheng ran over excitedly panting and shouted, "Jie San, don't be so troublesome, watch me deal with them." ”
"You're going to deal with them? What's your best idea? Wang Tiehan asked a little strangely.
Guan Yiheng smiled and pointed behind him and said, "Isn't it a pity to have such a good baby?" ”
Looking in the direction of Guan Yùheng's finger, a tank turned around the corner of the barracks, followed by a second and a third...... They roared towards here amid the sound of gunfire and grenade explosions.
Among the stragglers that Wang Tiehan Jiāo gave to Guan Yùheng, including the brigade direct troops of the Seventh Brigade, especially the tank company, which had the most neat personnel, was killed by the Japanese army. When Guan yùheng arranged for them to go to their respective arsenals to get weapons, the men of the chariot company were busy refueling their chariots, and the company commander of the chariot company ran to Guan Yùheng to ask for battle, asking them to go to destroy the remnants of Kawashima and avenge the dead brothers.
The tanks of the 7th Brigade are all Renault FT-17 light tanks imported from France by Zhang Zuolin, which have four basic models: the first is equipped with an 8mm machine gun with 1 tǐng and 4,800 rounds of ammunition; the second is armed with a 37-mm short-barreled gun with 237 rounds of ammunition; The third is a communication command vehicle, which has the turret removed, is equipped with a fixed armored capsule, and is equipped with a radio station; The fourth is armed with a 75-mm cannon.
In September 1917, Renault began to produce the FT-17 tank, and in 1920 it began to improve it, mainly including: M24/M25 type, improved the moving part of the tank, increased the diameter of the load wheels, added rubber tracks, and adopted a high-elastic suspension device, which increased the driving speed of the tank, and the maximum speed was increased to 12 km / h. The M26/27 model is equipped with a more powerful engine, so that the maximum speed reaches 16 km / h and the range reaches 160 km.
The FT-17 tank of the 7th Brigade is the latest M-26 type, armed with a 37mm gun and a machine gun.
"Okay, how did I forget this baby," Wang Tiehan also shouted excitedly.
