Chapter 1193 The British Army on the Brink
On the battlefield to the west, the British army is constantly attacking the devil's defense,
"Rush up for me, there aren't many devils left, and we'll blow them up with grenades!" A British regiment commander shouted at the soldiers below, and the soldiers of the British troops also rushed forward vigorously, shooting at the devils in front of them to suppress the fire.
"Baga, if you have the ability, come up, I'll blow you up!" A devil also threw the grenade out of the box, and scolded at the same time, but he was immediately shot, and he was shot several times in the chest, and the devil fell down unwillingly, and the devil next to him didn't care about him at all.
"Baga, go pick up the position of the machine gunner, there is no one in that place, give me firepower to suppress them, damn foreign devils!" The captain of a devil's wing saw that several of his machine gun positions had stopped firing, so he shouted loudly,
Immediately, a few devils arrived there, pulled the bolt and began to continue the design, causing great casualties to the foreign devils who were charging in front.
"Rush up, rush up for me, there are a lot of us, rush up and we'll go out, hurry up!" When a British division commander saw that his troops were less than 30 meters away from the devil, he shouted loudly.
"Da Da Da!" The devil's heavy machine gun has also been strafing, although many machine gunners have been hit, but there are still a lot of devils who take over, maintaining the heavy firepower on the battlefield, and the British army also has a lot of machine gunners strafing the devil's position to suppress their firepower!
"Baga, why haven't there been reinforcements yet, when are we going to fight! If we don't come again, we won't be able to hold it, and those foreign devils will die in order to be able to escape! The brigade commander shouted loudly when he saw that the foreign devils above his position were getting closer and closer.
"Brigade commander, this is not possible now, we can't stop them, and now the reinforcements have not arrived. We have to stay up to stop them, let's call the artillery, let the artillery bomb this place, and organize the foreign devils to continue to escape! The chief of staff next to him suggested.
"Boom here?" The brigade commander looked at his chief of staff in surprise and asked.
"Yes, Your Excellency Brigade Commander, we don't have many people, it is estimated that there are less than a few hundred people left, as long as those foreign devils rush out of here, they will run away, and it will be more difficult for us to surround them than anything else. We have to surround them, or our real forces will be very dangerous.
The order of the headquarters is very clear, we must coerce those foreign devils to break out of the encirclement together, so that Hu Hao's troops will be jealous! The chief of staff nodded firmly.
"Yo Xi, anyway, if the reinforcements are too late, we will also explain here, call the artillery for me, and pass our parameters to them. If they want to bombard here, we will fight with those foreign devils! The brigade commander shouted.
"Hey!" When the chief of staff heard the order of the brigade commander, he immediately went to the telegraph man next to him and asked the telegraph operator to send a telegram.
However, two minutes later, a test-fired shell hit the side of the attacking British troops.
"Damn it. The devils are actually going to shell here, don't they care about their own soldiers, hurry up and rush out of the city for me, quick! "The division commander heard the sound of shells exploding.
The whole face immediately turned pale from the excitement that was about to break out of the encirclement, and although the person next to him couldn't see it, he could hear from his voice that he was trembling!
"Boom. Boom, boom! "Then a lot of shells exploded all over the battlefield to the west.
"Baga, there are no reinforcements for Lu, where is one of my brigades buried like this!" The division commander of the western defense unit learned that his brigade was no longer many, and that he was now calling in artillery to bombard the position to prevent the foreign devils from breaking through, and the end would be that the entire brigade would be annihilated.
"Kill me, kill all those foreign devils for me, and avenge the warriors of our 141st Brigade!" The division commander took out his command knife and waved it forward, shouting loudly, and those devil soldiers who were attacking the defensive positions of foreign devils also stood up and rushed towards the British defensive positions in front.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The shells kept exploding on the western position, blowing up all the British troops who were attacking, and many of the charging foreign devils also heard the cannon sound and immediately fell down, but the foreign devils who read with them were killed by the bombs.
"God, why are you so cruel, my soldier!" The division commander saw that his attacking troops were basically covered by artillery fire, and when the shelling was over, it would be good to be able to survive a quarter.
"Damn, the other troops prepare for me, after the shelling is over, continue to charge, and be sure to break through the devil's defense!" William Slim also saw the flames of the explosion in the distance, and knew that his attacking troops had been attacked by artillery fire.
"Report, General Stilwell telegram!" A staff officer shouted as he took a telegram to William Slim's side. William Slim took the telegram and read it.
"FK, I block those devils, what do I do to block the devils, my casualties are more than half of them now, now we are surrounded by devils, not that we are surrounding devils!" William Slim saw the telegram above,
Stilwell also asked him to stop those retreating devils on the road, William Slim was very angry when he saw this, his own troops didn't have this ability at all now, originally there was only one division of Gunna,
But now it seems that there is more than one division at all, at least 4 divisions and regiments, and he wants Stilwell to give him an explanation, why would Guna suddenly appear so many troops!
"Send me a telegram from General Stilwell, we have been surrounded by devils, and now we are breaking through, I hope General Stilwell can get the Chinese army to come here as soon as possible and help us break out of the siege!" William Slim shouted loudly at his staff.
And on the way to the retreat of the devils, the troops of the Chinese Expeditionary Force also pursued all the way, with the tanks in front of the head, followed by the two divisions of the Northwest Corps equipped with cars, and the troops of the Expeditionary Force equipped with cars in the back.
As long as the devil's resistance is discovered, the tank troops will immediately start to charge, and the soldiers of the Northwest Corps behind also jump out of the car and cooperate with the tank troops to attack the devil's defense line, once the impact is over, it will be handed over to the troops of the expeditionary force behind to solve the remnants of the enemy, and they continue to follow the tank troops to advance by surprise,
From 6 o'clock last night, to more than 2 o'clock in the morning now, they have penetrated the 4 to the blocking position of the devils, and now they are still chasing those retreating devils, those devils are also ruthless, some of the devils who can get on the car are retreating with the troops, and the devils who are walking are all used to set up blocking positions and organize the pursuit of the expeditionary force.
"Damn, more than half of our 5 divisions have already suffered casualties, and the total is less than 30,000 people, and the combat effectiveness of the expeditionary force is too strong!" The commander of a division and several other division commanders spoke on the way to retreat.
"There must be Hu Hao's troops here, it can't all be expeditionary force troops, we have fought against the expeditionary force's troops, and their combat effectiveness is not so strong, so there must be! But we don't know how many!
Now there is also a battle in front of us in Gunna, our troops are besieging the British troops, as long as we take down the British troops, then the expeditionary force should not dare to move, even if they want to move, they will not dare, those foreigners will not allow the Chinese troops to do this! Another division commander also said,
The commander of the division next to him looked at his watch through the rear headlights, it was already more than 2 o'clock, almost 3 o'clock: "There are still more than 2 hours before dawn, and when it is dawn, all the attacking troops will definitely retreat, if they don't retreat, our air force will be able to bomb them!" ”
"Well, yes, the Chinese army does not have an air force here, and the sky here is the sky of our Japanese!" The commander of the other division also nodded in agreement and said,
"As long as it is dawn, we will be victorious, and those British troops will be fine as long as they do not break out of our encirclement!" The commander of another division also spoke.
In Hu Hao's headquarters, Hu Hao is also paying attention to the changes in the war from time to time!
"Brother Hao, the telegram of the expeditionary force Du Yanming!" Lao Niu came over with a telegram and said, his expression was not very natural.
"What's wrong?" Hu Hao asked when he saw him like this. "Look at it for yourself!" Lao Niu handed the telegram to Hu Hao. Hu Hao gave him a strange look, and then took the telegram and looked at it.
"Let go of Tamad's fart, pursue during the day, we have a lot of soldiers in China, and a lot of soldiers is not such a way to send you to death! Tell Du Yongming to ignore him, and at 4 o'clock, all those who don't read must retreat and enter the forest. Let's go to the rescue of the British troops? I think it's beautiful, if we go to save it, what else do I want to do with this sentence! Hu Hao scolded when he looked at it.
"But you read the telegram that Stilwell was already in his headquarters, and that Du Mingming's troops must continue the pursuit, rush into the battlefield of Gunna, and rescue the British troops who were surrounded.
Otherwise, they won't be able to survive today's daytime, and the devils will definitely use the air force to bomb them, and now Du Yanming doesn't know what to do! Lao Niu said to Hu Hao.
"Don't bother with him, 200,000 troops are surrounded by four divisions and can't break through if they want to break through, what do you want such a force to do? If the equipment is poor, Lao Tzu doesn't say anything, their equipment is much better than that of the devil! Don't bother with him, you will not be affected by the king's life outside! Tell Du Mingming to retreat according to the plan! Hu Hao still emphasized to Lao Niu.
"But this General Du will be very embarrassed!" Lao Niu looked at Hu Hao again and said.
"Yes, too!" Hu Hao heard it and thought that it was indeed the case, so he thought about it wherever he was. (To be continued......)
PS: It hurts to death, and the next chapter is estimated to be very late!
