Chapter 50: The Decisive Battle (2)

The battle in Yushan was finally over, and Tu Dai was holding on to a section of the broken wall, spitting uncontrollably—he didn't feel anything when he shot and killed, and the sacrifice of his comrades filled his heart with hatred. However, when the cheers of victory sounded and the battlefield was cleaned, seeing those mutilated corpses and bright red and brown blood, Tu Dai realized the cruelty of war, so he was unstoppable, nauseous, vomiting, and even vomited out the overnight meal, there was really nothing to vomit, and his heart was a little cooler.

Wu Dagan killed one soldier in this class and slightly wounded two. The fallen fighters have been taken care of, and the wounded have been properly disposed of. Wu Dagan took the surviving brothers to guard Tudai's side, and they all looked at him with concern.

This was an unprecedented sight for Tudai, and if he behaved like this, then everyone would definitely laugh at him. And today, the reason why everyone's performance seems strange is because Tudai's performance today is really too many.

In this battle, Tudai's performance was too good. As soon as the statistics keeper in charge of the records counted, the number of devils he killed reached thirteen. This is nothing in the first place, after all, this number of enemy annihilation is not common among the cadet army, but it is by no means uncommon. The crux of the matter is that the devils he kills are the kind of people who are covered in Molotov cocktails and suddenly come out of a mess. And according to Wu Da Ganyun, who has been guarding him: This kid is a god, he almost doesn't need to aim, and when the muzzle of the gun turns around, a devil is blown up! Brothers, it's all point shooting!

In this battle, the greatest damage caused by the Japanese army to the 11th Regiment came from this kind of incendiary bomb, and it was precisely because of Tudai's extraordinary performance that the 11th Regiment lost many soldiers. Killing people and saving people, the credit for saving people is greater, which is why Tan Xiaoyong, who was wounded in one arm, asked the guards to send a bottle of Xuebing brand beer to Tudai as soon as the battle was over.

It is Tan Xiaoyong's exclusive skill to give wine to soldiers who have performed well in battle as a reward, and Xuebing brand beer is extremely precious in this time and space, which can be compared to the existence of Moutai. After this incident, Tudai's image in the minds of the officers and soldiers of the 11th Regiment has completely changed, and in the words of Wu Dagan: Another pure master was born!

War can make men grow and mature quickly, especially for Tu Dai, when he vomited a lot, he was surprised to find that he was much more sophisticated in talking and communicating with people, and his face was no longer flushed at every turn.

Yushan was finally taken, and before the 3rd Division attacked Lingang, the significance of which was not only how many devils were annihilated, but that the previous victories in the two battles of Yingtan and Shangrao were steadily preserved.

However, although the process was thrilling, Li Hansoul was not satisfied. The casualties were too great, and in the case of ten times the strength of the other party, the battle losses actually reached eighty percent of the Japanese army, which made him feel very bad for a while. At the brief summary meeting that followed, he questioned his subordinates as follows: "Why did we encounter such a tough battle, a tough battle, and our troops would not be able to fight?" Is it because it relies too much on advanced weapons? If that's the case, then sooner or later we're going to have to suffer a big loss! Remember, everyone, that man is fundamental, and as for weapons, they are just tools—do you understand? ”

So far, among the three armies, the Second Army is the most outstanding, in the eyes of Zhang Da and Jiang Guangnai, perhaps the victory of the Second Army made them feel ashamed and blush, but Li Hansoul knew that he was bitter.

The two battles of Yingtan and Shangrao, the two armies were fought with superior troops, but they were both fought very hard. And if it weren't for the puppet army, the losses in the battle of Yingtan are estimated to be much higher. This made him have to reflect on the problems of the troops - the 3rd Division rushed to Yushan in the starry night, but it was still a step too late. When they felt the white clouds that were only ten kilometers away from Yushan, the battle for Yushan was over.

The radio station of the Yushan defenders was blown up by a tank shell during the battle. For this reason, Kawabe Shozo did not receive the information about the loss of Yushan, thinking that Yushan was still in the hands of the 13th Division, so he immediately launched a fierce attack on Lin Gang. Guarding Lin Gang were the two regiments of the Xuesan Army's Infantry Brigade, Zhang Laishun commanded these two regiments to resist for more than two hours, and was about to ask for the support of the Xue's Second Army, which had been resting for a while, when Hebian Zhengsan finally learned the news that Yushan had been captured, and was worried that the forward would break through too deep and be ambushed, he changed his strategy and let an infantry wing continue to maintain the offensive against Lingang, and at the same time let the 25th Cavalry Wing, which had originally attacked Lingang, change to Yanrui Movement.

The change in the strength of the Japanese army quickly attracted Zhang Laishun's attention, because there was only one dissatisfied group under his command who was holding Yanrui, and he immediately asked Li Hanshen for support.

At about seven o'clock in the morning of November 17, the vanguard of the Japanese army, the 4th Cavalry Brigade of the 4th Cavalry Brigade, which had failed to attack Lingang, launched a surprise attack on Yanrui with the 25th Cavalry Wing as the vanguard under the leadership of the brigade commander Bu Qi Chunshu.

Yan Rui, the 3rd Regiment of the Jibu Brigade, under the command of the regiment commander Fu Changjiang, built a solid defense around the township office early on. The Japanese cavalry reconnaissance unit had just appeared in Bison Village, about three kilometers away from the township office, and Fu Changjiang received a report from the outpost and immediately prepared for battle.

The 3rd Regiment had only been withdrawn from the front line of the attack on Yushan two days earlier, because the regiment had lost more than 30% of its strength in the battle to attack Yushan, and for the purpose of allowing the regiment to rest on the spot, Zhang Laishun, commander of the Mechanized Infantry Brigade of the Third Army, had them take charge of defending Yanrui, which was located between Lingang and Litang. Litang is a depression, which is not suitable for traffic at this time, so Zhang Laishun put a company there to monitor the surrounding enemy situation. It is precisely because it is unlikely that there will be enemy troops in Litang that Yanrui is safer than Lingang, of course, because Yanrui is now blocking the way for the 3rd Division and the 13th Division to meet, this will become the main target of the second round of the Japanese army.

In this battle, although the Xuebing Army was the main attacker, as a local battle, the geographical and human factors were still in their hands. When the Chinese face the invasion of foreign enemies, especially when the country is broken, they can always hold together tightly, and it is precisely with these in mind that Zhang Laishun will arrange it like this, and now, he has finally discovered the mistake of this work.

The follow-up forces of the 3rd Division continued to press the front line of Lingang, and the main force of the Jibu Brigade did not dare to divide troops to reinforce Yanrui. Therefore, although they were only separated by a distance of about five kilometers, in the face of the entanglement of the superior enemy army, Zhang Laishun had no intention but no intention, but he could not send troops to reinforce him, so he could only turn to Li Hansoul for help.

The border area between Zhejiang and Jiangxi is mountainous, which is not conducive to the performance of cavalry troops, but it just so happens that there is a smooth road between Lingang and Yanrui, and this road is now controlled by the Japanese army, and the 3rd regiment is cut by the Japanese army and the main force, and has to face the superior cavalry alone.

To deal with the cavalry, it is absolutely impossible to let it rush to the close, but fortunately, the 3rd Regiment is well prepared and the fortifications built are quite solid. In addition, the density and continuity of automatic weapon firepower also allowed them to firmly control the front line, preventing the Japanese army from having a chance to break through.

The task of the 4th Cavalry Brigade of the 3rd Division was to quickly break through Yanrui, so that the main force could bypass Lingang and Yushan from here, and thus take the southeast line to join the 13th Division. The 25th Cavalry Wing has three cavalry brigades under its jurisdiction, and more than 3,000 troops give them a firm advantage in terms of strength. The original plan of the wing commander Izumo Daisa was to break through the Iwarui defense line in one go, and then rush straight to the outer shed with this courage. As long as the outer shed is captured, then it will be able to join the Japanese troops of the two brigades of the 13th Division that were blocked in the southeast of Qunli Township. At that time, it will be necessary to continue to move to the southeast to rescue the main force of the 13th Division, or directly besiege the main force of the Xuesan Army surrounded by the 13th Division, and there will be many choices.

When Kawabe Shozo was arranging his tactics, he particularly emphasized: "The key is to quickly take down Yanrui, so that you can disrupt the arrangement of the Shina people." The sudden fall of Yushan has indeed nullified our original battle plan, but Li Hanxun of the Zhina Army has just taken Yushan, and they must be very tired now, and this is the advantageous factor we can take advantage of. Bu Qijun, please! ”

Bu Qi Chunshu resolutely carried out the order of the riverside Zhengsan, and the 25th Cavalry Wing began to charge at a distance of about a kilometer from the position of the township office, and more than 3,000 Oriental horses rushed vigorously, and its momentum was indeed very terrifying. The dust in the sky was raised, which also blocked the sight of the defenders to a certain extent, but fortunately, Fu Changjiang was prepared, otherwise, it was really possible that a sprint would be broken through by the Japanese army.

As the cavalry array got closer and closer, the pressure on the officers and men of the 3rd Regiment increased. Fu Changjiang looked at the Japanese cavalry array that was missing, and once doubted his decision: should he leave the reserves?

The horse's ability to sprint over short distances was extremely strong, and he only hesitated for a moment, and the more than 300 horses that the Japanese army rushed to the front had already entered the firing range. Fu Changjiang didn't have time to think about it at all, and immediately shouted: "Fight!" "Then he took the lead in shooting.

"Da Da Da!" The gunfire of the disease-type general-purpose machine gun rang out crisply, and then the gunfire of various automatic weapons of the Weiqing type. "Empty!" The mortars are also starting to fire - "Boom! "A Japanese cavalryman stepped on a mine, and in the violent explosion, the horse that stepped on the mine and the rider on it were lifted up by the air. The horses that rushed up after them didn't have time to dodge at all, some were directly blown down, some were down, and some were down, and there was a neighing of horses on the position within three or four hundred meters in front of the township office......

"Charge, keep charging, no one is allowed to stop!" Izumo Osa, who was in the middle of the cavalry ranks, shouted frantically, directing his subordinates to continue to rush forward without fear of death.

The fortifications built by the 3rd Regiment around the village office were originally intended to meet the general infantry, so in order to get a good view, all the debris and trees in the front firing surface of the fortifications were removed and dug up, and it was because of their arrangement that Izumo saw the hope that one station would work. If the officers and men of the 3rd Regiment still use ordinary rifles such as medium and formal to meet the battle, he does have a very big hope of forming a breakthrough in one round, but now it seems that the arrangement of the 3rd Regiment is more like a trap, and the cross-continuous fire network formed by the disease-type general-purpose machine gun and the Weiqing-style various automatic firearms is really too perverted. The Japanese army's fearless charge now looks more like a rush to die.
