Chapter 164: The Dragon Flag Flying in Honolulu (5)

At about 8 p.m. on the evening of 5 January, more than 50 amphibious vehicles of the assault unit of Pan Guochen's detachment were launched from the vicinity of the Pearl River estuary and drove into Pearl Harbor.

Seeing that the American general mentioned in the telegram was escorted to him in frustration, Pan Guochen excitedly threw off his chariot hat: "Fan Wenrui, I have asked for your work." ”

Fan Wenrui pressed the steel helmet, shook his head and smiled: "I didn't know that this general didn't come out sooner or later, but he just crashed in front of my gun, it's all fate......"

"This fate is good, less than twelve hours after landing, there is a thief who captures the king first, and now you are going to be in the limelightβ€”β€”"

"Everywhere, it's Brigadier Pan......"

"Put this aside in advance, old man tie it up and throw it on the cart, our play has just begun-"

Since it is the black tiger digging out the heart, the claws have been poked into the flesh, so it is natural to dig around, not only to dig out the heart, but also to pull the liver, gallbladder, stomach and intestines by the way, disemboweling, bloody, and rotten, so it can be considered good-looking-

Before marching in, Pan Guochen had already sent a telegram to Yu Dalong's military headquarters, clarifying the plan for the next operation, and asking Lin Taiping's troops, who were at the eastern opening of the encirclement, to coordinate the operation. At this time, it is time to release a signal to cooperate with Lin Taiping's troops inside and out, and tear this piece of cooked fat in the encirclement from the inside to the outside and eat it all.

The signal was a telegram with only one word "broken", and four consecutive red flares fired with grenadiers.

At this time, Lin Taiping's detachment had just gathered the mechanized troops of Shi Guanghua's division and Huang Zhifeng's division who came from the Pearl Bridge, and its strength reached three tank battalions, three amphibious infantry battalions, and more than half of the suppressed artillery of the entire armored army. 23 90-mm self-propelled howitzers and 18 120-mm self-propelled mortars prepared the enemy positions for heavy artillery fire "not a single shell on board". After fifteen minutes of rapid shelling, as three red flares were fired one after another, several searchlights from the mechanized boat bridge company shone on the enemy line, along with the lights of other vehicles, and the steel wall of the chariots slowly moved towards the enemy position along the pillar of light, and the mechanized infantry who got off the vehicles followed closely behind like ants, driving the enemy out of the foxholes and trenches of different depths with hail grenades.

At the same time, Pan Guochen's troops were also divided into three, a five-vehicle detachment led by a company commander swept north along the road leading to the Pearl Bridge, and about 20 amphibious vehicles of four infantry companies led by a battalion commander swept eastward, destroying the enemy's most rearly artillery in the encirclement, and Pan Guochen personally led the remaining 30 amphibious vehicles to the west to break into the eastern area of Pearl City.

Pan Guochen led his team straight into a large compound on the outskirts of the city, which was the army barracks set up by the US army, and the playground was a mess, full of bombed-out vehicles and dying horses......

Before 12 o'clock in the evening, Pan Guochen's troops and Lin Taiping's troops triumphantly joined forces, and the organized resistance in the encirclement completely ceased, and then moved to the work of clearing up the remnants of the enemy.

According to the post-war inventory, the encirclement around Pearl City annihilated two regimental headquarters, six infantry battalions, and four artillery batteries of the U.S. Army, killed more than 2,000 enemies, and captured more than 3,000 people under the enemy's Hawaiian military commander, General Scowley.

Within a dozen hours, the Marine Corps Panzer Corps fought all the way from the north coast to Pearl Harbor, destroying more than 5,000 enemies alone, capturing three regimental flags, destroying most of the defenders' backbone forces, and capturing the defenders' commander in one fell swoop.

It's just that in Pan Guochen's opinion, although this death game with a golden finger is interesting, it is inevitably a bit invincible - such a knight is always difficult to die.

After fighting for most of the day, people will feel sleepy and tired, although there are still gunshots and grenade explosions in the vicinity from time to time to search for the remnants of the enemy, Pan Guochen does not care about 3721, wrapped in a blanket and nested in the chariot, took a nap in a daze, vaguely heard someone knocking on the top cover of the turret, so he reluctantly ate and suddenly opened the top cover, wiped his eyes and saw that it was the army commander Yu Dalong who drove it himself.

"Commander, you're here so soon......" Pan Guochen opened his mouth and couldn't help but yawn like swallowing a watermelon.

"Young man, I can't resist it so soon, no." Yu Dalong threw him a Jinhard Gate.

Pan Guochen nodded in a daze, and smoke floated out of his nose like sleepwalking: "It's just a nap...... Is there another meeting? ”

"Tomorrow I plan to let you take the lead and attack Honolulu, so I'll ask for your opinion first."

"Since the commander has decided, his subordinates should obey the order."

Yu Dalong hissed and nodded: "That being said, your brain, and you are a big celebrity in front of all the elders and important ministers, if you have any ideas, just say it, I will try to consider it, who called you a 'master of landing warfare'." ”

Pan Guochen said with a smile: "It's just a false name, the commander asked me to take the lead is the greatest care for me." ”

Yu Dalong patted him on the shoulder and pulled him out of the chariot again: "I'm relieved if you say that, I will set off after dawn, and the subordinate troops will remain the same, and behind you will be Lin Taiping and Shi Guanghua's detachment, and Huang Zhifeng's detachment will rush to the west tomorrow to sweep away the remnants of Eva's side with Scott's detachment, do a good job, finish this battle in advance, I invite everyone to drink." ”

……

In the early hours of January 6, in the northern suburbs of Honolulu, Hawaii Defense Command.

"The gunfire on the Pearl City side has subsided, and there is still no news of the commander, and there is no way to get in touch with the troops in the encirclement, and reinforcements cannot rush over...... No, it's not so much that it can't be rushed, but that it was completely defeated. ”

The Chief of Staff, Colonel Charles, said with a sad face, and in front of him were the officers of the headquarters and the commanders of the remnants of the Honolulu side.

"What do we do next? Do you sit back and wait for an enemy with advanced mechanical weapons to carry out a one-sided slaughter against us? ”
