Wuhan, the headquarters of the 10th Army of the little devils.

Noda Miyahiko, commander of the 10th Army of the little devils, saw the telegram he had just received, his face turned pale, and he was furious in the command headquarters, and the chief of staff of the little devils, Sadao Nagata, and several commanders and signal soldiers of the little devils stood aside with their heads bowed cautiously, not even daring to come out.

"Hakata Shigeichi, this stupid pig, a detachment of more than 10,000 people, is actually all broken, Hakata Shigeichi is a stupid pig-like command, and the empire raises a stupid pig." Miyahiko Noda roared in the office.

"Hey! Your Excellency the Commander is wise. Sadao Nagata and the other little devils bowed their heads and bent over, echoing loudly.

Noda Miyahiko, who vented in the command headquarters, calmed down the anger in his heart a little, and then said sharply: "Nagata-kun, this time the entire jade shattering of the Hatian detachment is a major loss for the empire, and it is also a shame for the empire, and we must wash away this shame." ”

"Hey! Your Excellency, Commander, we must strike a good blow at this Chinese force. Sadao Nagata suggested.

"Yes, we have to deal a good blow to this Chinese army and save face for the empire." Noda Miyahiko said sharply, "Nagata-kun, where has the vanguard of our reinforcements reached?" ”

"Your Excellency Commander, the chariot wing and motorized brigade of our reinforcements have reached a position more than 50 kilometers west of Jingzhou, and in just over an hour, we will be under the city of Jingzhou, and several infantry wings that will be reinforced in the future are also speeding up."

Noda Miyahiko's face softened slightly, but he still said loudly: "Order, the 114th Division in Changsha and the 6th Division in Xiangyang are ready for battle and march to Jingzhou at any time." ”

"Your Excellency, are you going to fight a large-scale battle this time? Our three divisions, nearly 100,000 people, are they just to annihilate this squadron? The little devil's chief of staff said a little shocked.

"Nagata-kun, we have to be prepared, just in case."

"However, Your Excellency Commander, if the 114th Division and the 6th Division are mobilized, then our forces will be empty in Changsha and Xiangyang, and with the help of local garrisons, we will not be able to resist the attack of China's Fifth Theater, which has several group armies and more than 30 infantry divisions stationed in Anhui, Jiangxi, Hunan, Hubei, and other places." The little devil's chief of staff reminded worriedly.

Noda Miyahiko listened to the words of the chief of staff of the little devil, and also felt that it was a bit risky to transfer these two divisions, and Noda Miyahiko thought about it for a long time in the office, and then reluctantly said to the chief of staff of the little devil: "Send a report to the headquarters of the Central China Front Army and ask for tactical guidance." ”……

More than 50 kilometers east of Jingzhou, dozens of Type 92 light tanks and more than a dozen armored vehicles of the little devil's chariot wing were rumbling along the highway, raising dust in the sky. Tanks and armored vehicles are also full of infantry with little devils.

This little devil chariot wing has more than 50 Type 92 light tanks, more than a dozen armored vehicles, and several hundred infantrymen, and the total number of the entire chariot wing exceeds 1,000 people.

Less than 20 kilometers behind the chariot wing, a motorized brigade of the little devils was also advancing at full speed along the road, and in front of the motorized brigade of the little devils were twenty or thirty tricycles, each tricycle had three little devils sitting on it, and there was also a crooked machine gun on the side bucket of the tricycle.

Behind these little devil tricycles are more than a dozen armored vehicles, behind the armored vehicles there are twenty or thirty trucks, and the motorized brigade of the little devils also has nearly a thousand people, and the convoy stretches for one or two kilometers.

The captain of the Little Devil Chariot Wing was sitting in an armored command vehicle and was holding a telegram just sent by the Little Devil Wuhan side, which said that the Botian Detachment had been completely annihilated, and ordered his chariot wing to advance at full speed and attack Jingzhou.

The captain of the little devil wing couldn't believe his eyes, from receiving a telegram from the Potian detachment asking for help, his chariot wing set off from Wuhan, and now it has only been a few hours, and the Botian detachment of tens of thousands of people has been wiped out.

What kind of team is this, it is so strong in combat, the captain of the little devil wing is faintly looking forward to it, and wants to reach Jingzhou as soon as possible and have a good fight with this Chinese [***] team.

It has been more than two years since the landing of his tank wing in China to fight, whether it is in the large-scale battles in Shanghai, Nanjing, and Wuhan, or in the small-scale battles in peacetime, it has not tasted defeat, and it has been invincible every time.

The captain of the little devil wing knows in his heart that due to the lack of anti-tank anti-tank anti-aircraft guns in the squadron, he is simply helpless against his tank, and every time he relies on the soldiers to risk death to carry the explosive bag to blow up his tank, but this method has little effect, and now, his own infantry wing, equipped with hundreds of troops, can completely protect the tank and armored vehicles from the threat of the squadron's explosive pack.

The captain of the little devil wing who was full of expectations in his heart wanted to reach Jingzhou immediately, and with his own tank, he broke the tens of thousands of squadrons outside Jingzhou, so that his commander was impressed......

Ten kilometers outside Jingzhou City, the [***] team has basically cleaned up the battlefield, and the corpses of the little devils have dug a lot of big pits and buried them, and one big pit has buried hundreds of corpses of little devils, and there are nearly 1,000 corpses of little devils.

The weapons and equipment of the little devils were also carefully collected, and the soldiers of the 59th Army did not even let go of the damaged weapons, they were all collected and piled into a big pile, and later transported back to the ordnance repair station in Yichang to see if some of the guns could be repaired.

The 59th Army has an ordnance repair shop with several hundred people in Yichang, with only a small number of machine tools, and the repair of guns mainly relies on fitters to repair, that is, it basically relies on manual repair.

The ordnance repair station is a major feature of the Chinese [***] team, although it cannot manufacture guns, but it can repair guns, and some ordnance repair shops can also reload bullets, whether it is some units of the Kuomintang, even the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army, there are ordnance repair shops.

For example, the Eighth Route Army's ordnance repair institute can reload bullets and manufacture some "border area-made" grenades, but now the Eighth Route Army's ordnance repair station, with the help of Zhang Yunfei, has been able to manufacture dozens of rifles per month and produce tens of thousands of bullets, because Zhang Yunfei supported some military equipment of the Eighth Route Army, and the current Eighth Route Army Ordnance Repair Institute has been renamed Taihang Arsenal.

Many soldiers of the 59th Army are looking at these weapons with bright eyes, especially those soldiers of the 59th Army who are still using Hanyang, and they can't hold back the joy in their hearts, and they think in their hearts that there is finally a 38-type fast gun.

Although it was imitated in Hanyang, the German Mauser 98K, his prototype gun, the Mauser 98K, was a very good rifle, but due to the limited capacity of several major Kuomintang arsenals, the equipment was relatively old, the technology was backward, and the materials were not good, so compared with Germany, the rifle made was naturally several grades worse.

Therefore, Hanyang-made is much worse than the little devil's Type 38 rifle, and many soldiers of the 59th Army feel happy that they can use the Type 38.

Just as everyone was happily looking at the captured equipment, and their faces were full of joy, there was a roar in the sky, and many soldiers looked up at the sky, only to see more than a dozen Mustang fighters, flying at a low altitude, heading to the east.

Many soldiers wondered in their hearts, could it be that there was another unit of little devils in front, and the command headquarters sent planes to strike again.

At this time, the commander of the 3rd Infantry Division, Chen, was chatting happily with several division commanders of the 59th Army, and the commander of the 59th Army Cavalry Regiment was riding a high-headed horse, running quickly to this side, restraining the war horse in front of several people, quickly turning over and dismounting, standing upright in front of several people, and saluting a military salute, and reporting loudly: "Commanders, there are reinforcements from the little devils thirty or forty kilometers east of us, it seems to be a chariot wing of the little devils, according to our scouts' reports, there are dozens of tanks alone. ”

Several division commanders of the 59th Army next to them listened to the report of the commander of the cavalry regiment, and they were immediately shocked, and they were very anxious and worried.

Several division commanders of the 59th Army, all of whom are veterans of the battlefield, thought to themselves, whether it was in the Battle of Nanjing or the Battle of Wuhan, the little devil's Iron King Eight was on a rampage, and this time dozens of vehicles were dispatched at once, a chariot wing, and it was really not good.

Division Commander Chen of the Third Infantry Division saw the worries on the faces of several division commanders of the 59th Army, so he smiled faintly and said very calmly: "Don't worry too much, the little devil's Douding tank has nothing to be afraid of, and dozens of broken tanks dare to show off. ”

Dozens of broken tanks! Is this a couple of dozen broken tanks? This is a chariot wing of the little devils, it is the Iron King Eight who can't be broken and chewed, and the price that our [***] team pays in front of it is still small? Several division commanders of the 59th Army thought frantically in their hearts.

Feeling the puzzled gazes of several division commanders of the 59th Army, Division Commander Chen of the Third Infantry Division smiled faintly: "We call the little devil's tank the Douding tank, which is also what our commander-in-chief first called it, it is an iron box, we still have a lot of captured tanks in Datong?" We generally just use this tank for training and experimentation. ”

After listening to Division Commander Chen's words, several division commanders of the 59th Army thought to themselves, your 36th Group Army has also captured a lot of little devil tanks? You must know that since the Anti-Japanese War of our 59th Army, the destroyed little devil tanks are still only in single digits, and that is still the result achieved after paying a lot of casualties, your 36th Group is really crazy.
