Chapter 310: Breakout
On the night of January 20, on the position of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, the soldiers were resting with guns and blankets. www.biquge.info Although the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army surrounded the Japanese army, the encirclement was not tight, and in many places, simple fortifications were just built, and even trenches were not dug, only some foxholes were dug.
Of course, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army was also preparing for the Japanese army to break through. So, the 1st Armored Brigade, the tank battalions of the various infantry divisions, were all scattered. Ensure that once the Japanese launch a breakthrough, they will soon be able to get reinforcements from these armored units. With powerful armored forces, crush the Japanese troops who are trying to break through and completely destroy them.
Artillery positions were also deployed at a distance, and in the event of a Japanese breakthrough, they could immediately provide fire support according to the needs of the front. At the same time, the most powerful infantry support firepower of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army is naturally indispensable. Infantry guns, mortars, light and heavy machine guns, were deployed to the front. Should the Japanese attempt to break through, they would be hit with deadly fire.
"Lao Yu, order all divisions to strengthen the defense. Tonight, there is a high probability that the day * himself will break through. Sun Changwu said.
"Well, if the day * himself doesn't break through tonight, and we attack after dawn tomorrow, they won't have a chance." Yu Chengyin nodded.
Indeed, tonight is already the only chance for the day * himself. If they do not seize this opportunity, once dawn, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will bomb them indiscriminately. The Japanese-Thai coalition army, which had already suffered heavy losses, would not be able to resist at all, and would soon be severely damaged and then wiped out by the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.
"However, what if the day * himself chooses to break through? Their main forces, the 15th and 22nd Divisions of the Japanese Army, had been completely lost in the day's fighting. I'm afraid there aren't many troops left. If they break through, they'll only run into our firepower. When the time comes, it will naturally make their heads break the blood flow. In that case, it will be easier to destroy them. Yu Chengyin smiled.
The Japanese troops trapped in the encirclement have become turtles in the urn. The 1st Army of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army only needed to wipe them all out to win a brilliant victory in this battle.
"The brothers are very tired, so finish this battle early, so that everyone can have a good rest!" Sun Changwu said.
After all, during the daytime fighting, the officers and men were very tired. If the Japanese chose to break through at night, it would inevitably be another fierce battle. Of course, the officers and men of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army were very tired, and the Japanese themselves were also very tired. Even, they are at a disadvantage, and they are even more frightened.
It can be said that the current Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army is waiting for the Japanese * himself to send it to the door. Of course, regardless of whether the Japanese themselves choose to break through tonight, this will not have any impact on the 1st Army of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. If the Japanese break through, this will allow them to be wiped out more quickly. If you don't break through, wait until dawn tomorrow, and the 1st Army of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army can also use its strong strength to crush the Japanese army and wipe them out.
At this time, the Japanese-Thai forces in the encirclement were also making preparations. Lieutenant General Shibata Uuichi and Lieutenant General Saburo Isoda are discussing with Lieutenant General Sawen and Lieutenant General Song Eun about breaking out of the siege.
"Two generals, the current situation is very critical for us. The encirclement of the Chinese has been formed. If we don't break through again, wait until dawn tomorrow to bring out the powerful firepower advantage of the Shina people. When the time comes, we will surely die. So, we have to take advantage of tonight's time to launch a breakout. Only in this way can there be a glimmer of life. Lieutenant General Shibata said.
Lieutenant General Savin and Lieutenant General Song En both nodded, the current situation has indeed reached the point of life and death. The two of them now have only more than 50,000 people left.
"General Shibata, what to do, you can arrange it." Lieutenant General Savin said.
Lieutenant General Song En also nodded again and again, although the Thai Army under the command of the two of them still has more than 50,000 people, but if they really want to do it, it is estimated that it is not the opponent of the remaining more than 10,000 days* This army.
"Well, in that case, I'll just say it. Two hours later, we will launch a breakout, and the Thai Army, as the vanguard, will attack first. Subsequently, the Japanese army launched another attack, striving to break through the encirclement of the Chinese people in one fell swoop and escape. Lieutenant General Shibata said.
"Okay, no problem at all." Lieutenant General Savin said.
Although, he knew that the Japanese were using them as cannon fodder, letting them consume the strength of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army, and then they would launch an offensive again, so that they could successfully break through the encirclement. However, neither Lieutenant General Savin nor Lieutenant General Song En had any objections. Anyway, they are all used to being cannon fodder for the day. Hasn't this always been the case in the cooperation between Thailand and Japan?
Seeing that Lieutenant General Sawen and Lieutenant General Song En both nodded in agreement, Lieutenant General Shibata Uichi and Lieutenant General Saburo Isoda, a smile appeared on their faces. With the assistance of these Thais, the possibility of them successfully breaking through is undoubtedly greater.
At 11 o'clock in the evening of the 20th, the remnants of the 15th and 22nd divisions of the Japanese army were assembled. There were not many front-line combat units left, but the baggage troops, sappers, and artillerymen who had lost their artillery, as well as the soldiers of the search wing, were all gathered together.
"Ladies and gentlemen, for the sake of His Majesty the Emperor, for the sake of the Dainichi Empire, we must break through the encirclement of the Shina people. Loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, tonight! Lieutenant General Shibata Uichi said to the officers and soldiers of the Japanese army with a serious face.
Although many Japanese soldiers had desperate expressions on their faces, their eyes were full of fanaticism. They are not afraid of death at all, and they will die for the war for their country, which is regarded as the glory of their lives.
Half an hour later, the breakout of the Japanese-Thai forces began, and more than 50,000 Thai* troops, after receiving orders from the Japanese themselves, began to break through to the north. Although, these Thai officers and soldiers are very afraid. However, they had no choice but to attack as ordered.
The breakthrough of these Thai troops naturally ran headlong into the powerful firepower of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.
And at the same time, the day * himself was silent. After knowing that half an hour later, Lieutenant General Shibata Uichi gave the order to break through. More than 10,000 Japanese troops began to break through to the south. and the direction in which the Thais broke through before, it can be said to be a far opposite.
