Chapter 215: Catch a handful at the end
Chapter 215 Catch a handful at the end (crying blood at the beginning of the month to ask for votes!) )
Tang Qiuli saw that the battle situation was developing according to the prior plan, the most dangerous to the siege troops, the devil heavy artillery brigade was solved, and the devils at the south gate were suppressed by the artillery on the position, unable to move, and immediately issued an order for a general attack.
The other three directions, which had been silent since the beginning of the battle, were immediately activated, especially in the direction of the North Gate, where two-thirds of the firepower of the artillery detachment was concentrated.
The few devil defenders were immediately drowned in the steel storm, and the artillery of the Bloody Hand Regiment had a clear division of labor, with Type 92 infantry guns, mountain artillery, and field artillery specializing in fighting pillboxes, hidden bunkers, and concealment departments, and mortars specifically dealing with devils in fortifications.
Under this ferocious shelling, the devils immediately fell into a catastrophe, one by one pillboxes, hidden forts flew into the air, the devils hiding in the fortifications, forced mortars to blow up into the sky, as Tang Qiuli expected, at the beginning of the shelling of the north gate, the puppet Manchurian division assisted the troops guarding the north gate, abandoned their positions, turned around and fled into the city of Jinzhou.
These puppet Manchu soldiers, the speed of escape is very amazing, originally a rabble, when they have the upper hand, follow the ass of the Japanese devils, and they can still fight a few rounds, under the current situation, very parents have two legs, watching the shells fall to the top of their heads, and their companions who bragged to themselves in the morning immediately became a pile of minced meat, and those who can stand up and run to the city are already well-trained, and more puppet Manchu soldiers simply lie on the ground and can't move.
The rout of the puppet Manchurian soldiers annoyed the Japanese, and the guy in his hand shot wildly at the rout, which is good, dodging the shells of the bloody hand group, but not dodging the bullets of the little devils, some of the national soldiers who were slightly more courageous, saw that the little devils were more ruthless than the bloody hand group, and took advantage of the sound of the cannon to shake the sky, and the smoke and dust were everywhere, and the devils were also too busy to take care of their own time, and they started black guns in the back.
Don't look at the usual marksmanship of these national soldiers, at this time, the fight is very accurate, some national soldiers, not confident in their marksmanship, simply take advantage of the devil's kung fu to dodge shells, put the muzzle of the gun directly to the devil's head, only to catch fire, anyway, it's a mess, and no one pays attention to it, there is revenge, there is revenge, there are grievances, there are not many devils, after such a toss, there are few who can breathe.
Nakazawa Kiichi now understands, when he is on the bloody hand regiment, the main direction of attack of the Chinese army is at the north gate, listening to the density of artillery fire in that direction, it is several times more than the south gate, with the current defensive strength of the north gate, it is a miracle to be able to support for thirty minutes, and he has no troops in his hands to take reinforcements.
The only trump card was the chariot brigade, and he immediately ordered the chariot brigade to quickly reinforce the north gate and wipe out the attacking Chinese troops in front of the city gate.
More than 30 tanks and armored vehicles of the devils who received the order rumbled at full speed in the direction of the north gate, and the formation was also powerful and terrifying; unfortunately, the devil tanks and armored vehicles were caught by the special operations detachment that was operating in that area before they could reach the vicinity of the north gate, and immediately reported the coordinates to the headquarters of the artillery detachment.
Shells kept falling in the middle of the devil's chariots, these are not special anti-tank shells, it takes a little effort to completely blow up the tank, but it can blow up its tracks, but it is easy, as a result, the artillery group shelled for more than 20 minutes, several armored vehicles of the devil burned and caught fire, and the devil's tank, like an iron turtle that was lifted to the belly, spun in place.
In desperation, these devil tank soldiers jumped out of the tank and fled for their lives, and were blown up by artillery shells, and the rest fled in all directions, how could the special combat personnel who had been waiting there for a long time let go of such a good opportunity, and sent these arrogant devil tank soldiers back to their hometown in Japan with a single bullet.
Outside the north gate, on the devil's defensive position, a few gunshots rang out sparsely, and the troops poured into Jinzhou City like a tide, Tang Qiuli saw at a glance that these tanks that had been blown off their tracks, as if they had found treasures, left a squadron of fighters to protect these tanks.
The north gate was the first to be breached, and the troops who broke into the city were divided into three roads, and they were slammed into the city, and the siege troops from all directions met at the city gate, and the devils who were defending on the outside line were wrapped in dumplings.
The weak resistance of the devils, under the siege of tens of thousands of troops, seemed insignificant, and they were all annihilated on the outer positions, and by dawn, the entire Jinzhou City had completely fallen into the hands of the Bloody Hand Regiment.
Nakazawa Kiichi was in the command headquarters, listening to the tidal shouts outside, knowing that the general trend had gone, he didn't expect that he would be destroyed so quickly, and the reinforcements he was looking forward to have not even had a shadow until now.
Kiichi Nakazawa closed his eyes in despair, a sharp katana, inserted into his abdomen, the blade entered the body, the severe pain, stimulated his nerves, and when he was dying, the gentle face of his wife and the innocent smile of his daughter flashed in front of his eyes, and he couldn't help but ask himself, why did he leave them and come to this strange land?
Outside the city gate, the land ploughed by the artillery fire was still bubbling with wisps of embers, the corpses of devils in one place, piles of puppet Manchu soldiers prisoners, after more than eight hours of fierce fighting, the enemy defenders of Jinzhou were completely annihilated more than 20,000 people, of which more than 4,000 devils were killed, and more than 10,000 puppet Manchu soldiers were captured.
Jinzhou, an ancient city ravaged by the Japanese invaders, returned to the hands of the Chinese for the first time since the "918" incident.
The ancient city of Jinzhou woke up, the citizens poured into the streets, welcoming their army, and many young people asked to join the army, this kind of thing, Tang Qiuli handed over to Zhou Yushan to do it, they were better than themselves.
Tang Qiuli was concerned about those tanks and armored vehicles, he recruited a group of skilled workers, spent a day, repaired all the tanks and armored vehicles, selected a group of fighters who knew how to drive from the whole army, and set up a temporary armored unit, when these tanks and armored vehicles rumbled, the soldiers were envious.
This is not counting, Tang Qiuli organized all the military vehicles in Jinzhou City into armored troops, and all kinds of fuel, accessories, and ammunition were all transported away, this is a spare material in the future, once there is a full-scale war with the devils, when the time comes, they will not be able to buy it.
The more than 20 large-caliber artillery pieces also made Tang Qiuli very fond of them, he was worried about how to transport these bulky guys, it just so happened that these trucks came in handy, and there were a large number of military supplies and food hoarded by the devils in Jinzhou, except for a part of the grain distributed to the poor citizens, the rest, all of them were loaded and transported away.
Tang Qiuli was busy with military supplies and ammunition and equipment here, and Qiusheng was not idle, he confiscated all the Japanese puppet assets and the property of Japanese nationals in accordance with the consistent practice of the Bloody Hand Regiment, to be precise, all of them.
The devils practice a monopoly system in the northeast, and the monopoly products controlled by the devil involve almost all aspects of people's livelihood (Xiaojin heard from the older generation that Chinese are not allowed to eat rice, and if that one eats it, he will be sentenced to economic crimes, the light one will go to prison, and the heavy one will be shot), and the blood and sweat of the Chinese people have been squeezed dry, and the result is that the pockets of these Japanese and traitors have been fattened.
The confiscated gold and silver treasures filled more than a dozen large trucks, and this harvest, in Tang Qiuli's words, was enough to equip ten German armor divisions, and if it was possible, Tang Qiuli even wanted to buy a few planes and set up his own air force unit of the Bloody Hand Regiment.
In addition, the confiscation of the Japanese, and the necessities of life bought in the hands of Chinese merchants, loaded with dozens of trucks, the entire economic foundation of Jinzhou City, after the bloody hand regiment, at least twenty years back, especially those Japanese, Tang Qiuli left them with clothes, the property obtained by the oppression of the Chinese, to spit out, directly restored the Japanese from the rich to the state of poor eggs.
Tang Qiuli was quite satisfied with the harvest in Jinzhou, in the end, it was a city along the sea, the little devil did not work hard here, full of oil and water, in the northeast base, after blowing up the secret passage, after it was completely closed, there were many materials that could not be transported away with the troops, so they had to stay there, and the logistics supply of the troops in North China needed to be re-raised.
One of his intentions to fight Jinzhou was also to take a fancy to this piece of fat, the little devil has been operating here for many years, it just so happened that Nanjiro gave himself a chance to create zào, not swallow it all, and also lived up to the good intentions of the commander of the Kwantung Army, not to empty Jinzhou City, a lot of his Tang Qiu Lishan character, doing this kind of thing, Brother Qiusheng is much more competent than himself.
Zhou Yushan was also very rewarding, and after a few days of hard work, he recruited more than 6,000 recruits, all of whom were civilian children with good physical conditions and innocent family backgrounds, most of whom were educated, unwilling to be slaves to the country, and were full of hatred for Japanese devils.
These recruits were immediately handed over to Wu Hongtao, the commander of the new battalion, to receive, and then the remaining two brigades of Li Honggang's detachment were sent to escort these recruits to Huangya Cave, and at the same time, they were also responsible for escorting these materials.
During the troops' stay in Jinzhou City, the intelligence networks in various places reported news of devils, and the mobile encirclement and suppression corps of the Kwantung Army, which was chasing after the troops, learned that the troops were attacking Jinzhou after they were in the air in the grasslands of Chabei.
Because some time ago, the devil has been led by the nose by the luring enemy troops, from Dongman to Beimanchu, planting Chahar, non-stop, without rest, the soldiers' physical consumption is very large, exhausted, all kinds of materials are also facing an embarrassing situation, and the marching speed is extremely slow.
In addition to the small units of the special operations detachment, they continued to harass and attack along the way, which slowed down the marching speed of the devils, and now, the devils are still more than ten days away from Jinzhou.
There was a situation in which the command was reminded that during this period of time, the Devil planes had frequent activities, and the main area of activity was in the Beijing-Tianjin region of North China.
Tang Qiuli's heart tightened, he knew very well that the devil was preparing for an all-out war with China, and all his efforts in the northeast did not shake the ambition and determination of the Japanese military department to invade China in an all-round way.
