When the second line of defense was being built, in view of the fact that it had been clustered by anti-coalition tanks many times in the past, it passed through the mountainous areas that the Japanese army thought was impossible for tanks to pass, and interspersed with the lessons behind him in a roundabout way. After Lieutenant General Yoshio Hongo took office, he specially walked through the entire second line of defense.

A detailed investigation was also made on the equipment and setting points of each fortification group. Each valley is on the map, not to mention the corrections. All the fortifications were also set up along the course of the valley. With the commanding heights of the entire valley as the core, it is deployed in a decentralized state.

However, this natural tun in the southwest of Majiazhai, although there is a certain mountain plain from the tunzi to the line of Majiazhai, is conducive to the breakthrough of tanks. But the surrounding area of this natural tun is surrounded by mountains. If you want to enter this natural tun, Majiazhai is the only passage.

It is true that the enemy's tanks have penetrated through the mountains many times, which has brought a lot of deadly threats to the Kwantung Army's many operations. But if you tank in the mountains, you have to have a valley to march. You must know that behind that natural tun is a north-south mountain beam. The only one was not so much a pass as a slightly lower ridge with a steep slope that was difficult for tanks to climb.

If the enemy uses explosives, they can blast a road that can be used by tanks. Then your own artillery fire, you can build a fire network in this direction. If you use sappers to dig by hand, according to the height of this so-called pass, if you want to dig this pass flat, you can't do it by hand digging for a few days.

In addition, as soon as he withdrew to the second-line position, he sent sappers to make some manual modifications to this pass. The angle of the slope was increased, and even the south side of the pass was cut to a slope of 70 degrees. Therefore, he believed that it was impossible for the enemy's tanks to climb over this mountain bridge.

It's just that Hongo Yoshio didn't expect that Lin Qungao didn't think about digging this pass about fifty or sixty meters high at all, but just started from top to bottom, dug a gentle slope on both sides, and dragged down dozens of big trees with tanks on the spot, and smoothed the slope of this dozens of meters high pass, as long as the tank can pass through, it will be completed.

As for the two 76-mm cannons and one four-pack 14-mm anti-aircraft machine gun carried by the infantry, they were directly dragged by the tank. Yoshio Hongo didn't expect that he thought that the anti-union tank cluster would be impossible to pass through, but he was really forced to break through by Lin Qungao.

The most critical thing is that on the battlefield of Majiazhai at present, except for some more than 20 infantry guns, mortars, and eight mountain guns, the rest of the artillery has been transferred to the direction of Gushantun to provide firepower support for the breakthrough. It turned out that the artillery that controlled this direction was also transferred.

Facing Lin Qungao, who suddenly came out of an unexpected direction, he didn't think that in that direction, the Japanese army in Majiazhai would be caught off guard...... When Lin Qungao commanded his tank cluster and easily knocked out the few firepower points in the southwest of Majiazhai, all the tanks increased their horsepower and rushed into Majiazhai Village at the fastest speed. The infantry on board also quickly disembarked and immediately joined the battle under the cover of the tank.

Although Lin Qungao said that he was delayed for some time when he was detouring and interspersing. But his black tiger's heart-digging hand did have a rather sudden effect. The Japanese army, which was suddenly killed from the south and caused a great deal of chaos, was driven out of Majiazhai in a short period of time.

However, the Japanese army was not slow to react, and after losing Majiazhai, the middle part of the entire defense system, the Japanese commander knew the seriousness of the matter. At the expense of weakening the defenders in other directions, a counterattack was immediately organized at the first opportunity. At the same time, all the artillery fire that could be mobilized was concentrated.

However, even if the Japanese counterattack was extremely fierce, the artillery fire of the counterattack almost leveled Majiazhai, a small village in the eastern mountainous area of Kaiyuan. However, in the face of the defense system composed of tanks and infantry, I felt quite powerless.

Whether it is the 92nd infantry gun or the mountain artillery, no kind of shell can destroy the tanks of the Anti-United Nations. However, the troops of the Japanese counterattack had to face not only the intensive infantry fire strikes of the Anti-United Nations, but also the tank firepower of the Anti-United Nations. In particular, tank artillery fire and vehicle-mounted machine guns were fired accurately and ruthlessly.

The terrain of Majiazhai is conducive to defense, which once brought great difficulties to the offensive of the Anti-Union. However, when the attackers and defenders completed the switch, it was also quite difficult for the Japanese troops who had been driven out of the village to recapture the place. The tank fire of the Anti-Union always exploded with great accuracy in the Japanese charging sequence.

With just a few tanks and some infantry, it is enough to block the entrance and exit of the entire Majiazhai periphery. Its tanks also continued to adopt small-scale sortie tactics to carry out small-scale counter-assaults against the Japanese counterattacking forces. In addition to the three Japanese-style 150-millimeter heavy mortars captured by the Anti-Japanese Union in the village, they also did not hesitate to dump the shells.

These three Type 96 150-millimeter heavy mortars were captured by Lin Qungao's troops at a Japanese mortar position in the village when they entered the village. Around the three mortars at the time of capture, a large number of shells were captured at the same time. Therefore, the anti-United Nations forces that use waste do not have the slightest intention of saving.

Wherever there was a need, a large number of shells were tilted in that direction, and three rapid fires came up. In addition to the high-explosive grenades fired by tank guns, every direction of the Japanese counterattack became a cemetery for them. And the tactical counterattack of the small tank cluster organized by Lin Qungao to go out quickly and retreat quickly also made the losses of the Japanese counterattack even heavier.

The Japanese commander, who was forced to be helpless, even did not hesitate to resort to the Japanese army's decisive tactics of charging long live. But in the face of the dense fire of the defenders, the Japanese troops, who could only attack along several valleys, were knocked down by artillery fire and bullets. Even the tank, which was suddenly rushed out by the Anti-Union, was violently knocked into the air, or directly crushed under the tracks.

Looking at the battlefield full of Japanese corpses, knowing that the battle had been decided, even if the Japanese army was crazy, Lin Qungao, who could not jump high grasshoppers, took a puff of cigarette comfortably. With a wicked smile on his face, he said to the young guide who was scared all over his body when he saw such a bloody scene for the first time: "How about it, let's be excited." ”

"I said you are such a strong boy, it is not interesting to stay at home and farm. Come and join the army, look at your side, you must be a good hand at driving a tank. You see how good our iron horse is, except for the maintenance of some effort, we are not afraid of the devil's guns at all. If only you had read a book, our army needs people like you. ”

After that, he pointed to the front with great pride, a tank that had just retreated from a tactical counterattack, and his expression was quite heroic. It's just that he doesn't mean okay, this one refers to that tank. Looking at the white bones and flesh on the tracks of the tank, the young man immediately spit up.

While spitting, he waved his hand and said, "Sir, I graduated from a national elementary school after studying." But your troops are good, but it's a bit too much. Even if the devil is hateful, he won't be directly crushed into pulp. I can't participate in this unit, so it's better for me to plant my land in my hometown. ”

Lin Qungao smiled at the young guide's answer and said nothing. The heart says that you are really that simple when the war is so simple? On the battlefield, it is a life-and-death killing, and whoever shows mercy may be waiting for him to die. There are some things that you haven't seen yet, and only after seeing them do you know what the true cruelty of war is.

But people didn't spit out, and Lin Qungao didn't ask. According to the regulations of the Anti-Japanese Federation, every year's recruits are uniformly recruited and then allotted down, and each unit has no right to recruit soldiers. Even if he really became a soldier, he might not really be in his own army.

The reason why I asked this question is just to look at this guy, although he is not tall, but because he has been doing farm work for a long time and is covered with lumps of flesh, it is really a pity not to drive a tank. His size is the best size for driving a tank.

But after moving his mind and returning his mind, Lin Qungao just passed by. He still put his main energy on the command of the battlefield. At the moment, he is concerned about business, but he doesn't have the extra energy to persuade a person who is still a stranger to become a soldier.

Under the coordinated tactics of the anti-coalition forces that broke into Majiazhai, the small Majiazhai village was built into a strong fortress. The Japanese army who counterattacked paid a heavy price, and the entire perimeter of the Majiazhai battlefield was full of dead Japanese corpses.

Although the Japanese army paid a heavy price, they were never able to recapture Majiazhai. This village, which once made the Japanese army think it was very strong, although there are not many anti-coalition defenders in the village, but now it has become a hard bone that the Japanese army itself can't gnaw on no matter what.

And Lin Qungao also constantly organized tank artillery fire to support the friendly forces in the fierce battle around him. Although the power of his tank guns is not great, the Japanese troops who are firing from various points in the surrounding area are still fighting in the surrounding area, and it is very difficult to bear.

After seizing Majiazhai and repelling many Japanese squadrons and counterattacks on a squadron scale or above, Lin Qungao immediately organized a tank company with an infantry company and immediately went behind the enemy forces in Jinjiazhai, a few miles west of Majiazhai. In order to respond to the brother troops who were defending the enemy with Jinjiazhai and fighting fiercely in Jinjiazhai Nanshan.

Lin Qungao caught the Japanese army off guard, quickly seized Majiazhai and continued to provide support to the surrounding battlefields, as if it was the last straw that crushed the Japanese troops around Majiazhai. The division made a big havoc in the core area of the Japanese army, and gave the most favorable support to the offensive of the surrounding troops.

After the Japanese positions were disrupted, the surrounding units also adjusted their deployment and tactics. He began to take advantage of the adjustment of the enemy's deployment and continuously launched a series of attacks on the depth of the Japanese army. After a series of fierce battles, a series of key points around Majiazhai, such as Jinjiazhai, Huashan, and Xinghua, were successively seized by the attacking forces of the Anti-Japanese Federation.

Majiazhai is located at the center point of the defense line of the 44th Army, and the gains and losses of Majiazhai are directly related to the defense line of the 44th Army and whether it can become an overall defense line. The loss of Majiazhai, a small mountain village that is not big but has a very critical location, is definitely quite fatal to the entire 44th Army.

The loss of Majiazhai and the entire Japanese army east of the Zhongchang Railway were already in a situation where they were actually divided into two. Moreover, the barrier to the west was lost, and the entire core of the Japanese defense at Chaihe Fort could almost be said to be exposed to the anti-coalition attack force.

Lin Qungao won surprisingly, and before the Japanese army could react, he quickly seized Majiazhai, one of the most important strategic points in the entire defense system of the 44th Army, in addition to completely blocking most of the 44th Army in the mountainous area east of Majiazhai. It also became the first of the dominoes that finally caused the entire 44th Army to completely collapse.
