Chapter Two Hundred and Three: It's Over
"Da Da Da!"
On the Japanese position, the Type 92 heavy machine gun and the Type 96 light machine gun began to strafe. The dense bullets www.biquge.info hit the armor of the M4 medium tank and M3 light tank of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army, making a ping-pong sound, as if it were raining.
It's just that the firepower of the Japanese army seems to be ferocious. But these machine gun bullets do not pose any threat to these tanks at all, at most they just knock off some of the tank's paint.
"Boom!"
A grenadier successfully hit an M3 light tank with a grenade. It's just that the power of the grenade is too small, and there may be no problem against the infantry protected by the United States and Britain. However, against tanks, it seems to be somewhat inadequate.
"Yaga! Damn the Shina people, how can they have so many chariots? What are we going to do? "Seeing that those invulnerable tanks are getting closer and closer, many Japanese soldiers have fallen into despair.
"Boom!"
The tanks also attacked, the tank gun of an M4 tank opened fire, and a high-explosive bomb fell into the Japanese defense line, which immediately blew up several Japanese soldiers.
Of course, the machine guns of the tanks, slaughtering those Japanese soldiers, were more effective. Anyway, with strong armor protection, the crew inside didn't have to worry about being injured, they just needed to keep firing and strafe those Japanese soldiers.
"Da Da Da!"
Under the dense machine-gun fire, countless Japanese soldiers fell to the ground screaming.
"Quick, organize a forward team and blow up the chariot of the China!" A Japanese squadron leader ordered.
In the absence of anti-tank weapons, the Japanese soldiers had no choice but to launch a suicide attack. Have Japanese soldiers take the risk of approaching enemy tanks with explosive packs and blowing them up.
It's just a pity that the number of machine guns carried by American tanks is generally very large. The M3 light tank has three 7.62 mm machine guns. The M4 medium tank is armed with two 7.62 mm machine guns and one 12.7 mm machine gun. This made the tank's self-defense firepower not ordinarily powerful, and it was very difficult for the Japanese soldiers to get closer. Not to mention, there are infantry who follow behind the tanks and provide close protection for these tanks.
Several Japanese soldiers rushed to the tanks of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army with explosives bags in their arms. But without exception, before they got close to the tanks, they were already beaten into a sieve.
The entire battlefield has completely presented a one-sided situation. The armored units of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army are slaughtering those Japanese soldiers.
"Crunch! Crunch! ”
The tanks broke through the Japanese line and rushed directly into the crowd. The heavy tank ran directly over the bodies of those Japanese soldiers, crushing those Japanese soldiers into meat sauce. After the track was pressed, it left a long blood stain on the ground, which looked very bloody.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, our defensive line has been broken through by the China, so retreat quickly. If it's too late, it'll be too late. Shinseki said as a big admonition.
Obviously, this time their reinforcement of Bagu can be regarded as a complete failure. Under the blow of the armored forces of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army, they not only could not reach Bagu, but suffered extremely heavy losses.
"Retreat? Where can we retreat? Will the people of China let us go? "Yamajima High School will have a bitter face on his face.
He knew that after falling into the trap of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army this time, he was afraid that he would die for life.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, let's retreat to Rangoon. If we can escape there, we'll be safe. Major General Kawada Makitaro, commander of the 26th Brigade of the Japanese Army, suggested.
The high school general nodded and gave the order to retreat. It's just that people's legs obviously can't run the tracks of a tank.
The M4 medium tank is also capable of reaching a maximum cross-country speed of 21 km/h, which is much faster than the speed of a human. And the maximum cross-country speed of the M3 light tank is much faster. The Japanese wanted to escape under the pursuit of these tanks, which was completely delusional.
Countless Japanese troops were caught up, then strafed by tanks, or run over directly by tracks.
"Commander, the day * himself has retreated."
"Order the 1st Infantry Division and the 2nd Infantry Division to be dispatched, and give me a stop for these days*, I must not let them escape." Qin Shou immediately gave an order.
Qin Shou's purpose was not just to defeat them, but to completely eliminate them. The retreating Japanese army will have an impact on the next battle. Only when they are eliminated will they not pose a threat to the future occupation of Burma.
While the armored brigade was defeating the Japanese on the front, the 1st and 2nd Infantry Divisions were also on standby. It's just that they're just as itchy.
As soon as the order was given, the two infantry divisions fought out from the flanks. At the fraction are the tank battalions of these two infantry divisions. Although, there are not many tanks left in their tank battalions. But when encountering the defeated Japanese army, it was still crushing.
The retreat of the Japanese army was immediately cut off by the 1st Infantry Division and the 2nd Infantry Division. The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army seized this opportunity to carry out a larger-scale massacre of the Japanese army.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, there are people from all sides of us. They have surrounded us. Their chariots are slaughtering our soldiers. We can't escape. "Shinseki Saku is desperate.
"Yaga!" Yamajima High School will scold. Although his face was fierce, the slight trembling of his body proved that he was also very frightened at the moment.
The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army used armored forces to easily tear apart the resistance of the Japanese army, crush them, and kill all those Japanese soldiers. The infantry followed behind the tanks, taking out the scattered Japanese troops and further expanding the victory.
Under the blow of this tactic, the 46th Division of the Japanese Army and the 26th Brigade were completely unable to resist and were eliminated little by little. The battle was over when the sun went down. More than 25,000 Japanese troops were all slaughtered, and there was not a single one left.
In Bago City, the 15th Division of the Japanese Army was still trembling under the strong firepower of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. Lieutenant General Yamauchi Masafumi is also still waiting for reinforcements.
However, in the evening, the chief of staff, Major General Nakanaga Taro, with an ugly face, took a telegram and reported to him: "Your Excellency, Commander, the 46th Division and the 26th Division, which are independent and mixed, are under siege by the Chinese people. The Chinae dispatched a large number of armored troops. The 46th Division and the 26th Brigade were mixed together, and all of them were shattered. ”
Lieutenant General Yamauchi was stunned. His bitter more than 20,000 reinforcements are gone. So, what should he do next!
"It's over, it's all over now. The 15th Division is coming to an end, and the Burmese Front is also finishing. Lieutenant General Yamauchi looked desperate.
