readx;? The 41st Wing used all the artillery that the brigade could use before preparing for the attack, and the night battle was difficult for both the attacking and defending sides. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info could not accurately determine the position of the position and the distribution of the firing points, and the artillery fire could not be fired. Therefore, the wing commander of the 41st Wing, Takayuki Ueki, sent a squadron first and touched the defenders' positions in the dark of night.

On the mountain road on a winter night, even if there is starlight, you can only see a figure dozens of meters away, so the soldiers on guard on the position found that when the Japanese army touched the position, the Japanese army was only a few dozen meters away from the position, and the soldiers on guard shouted: "Little Japan is coming." Then he pulled the trigger of the semi-automatic rifle at the faint figure.

As soon as the gunshots rang out, both sides were alert, and almost simultaneously the two sides began to fire at each other. The Japanese set up light machine guns and fired at the position, and the grenadiers also fired grenades at the position, and the light and heavy fire on the position also fired fiercely in the direction of the Japanese army. It was dark and the hit rate on both sides was not high, and the gunfire was very dense, but the number of casualties on both sides was only in the single digits.

However, by the light of the muzzle of the gun, the Japanese army judged the location of the firing point on the position, and before the Japanese army could completely withdraw, various artillery began to shell the position. At this time, the artillery that the Japanese could use at this time, including mortars, was only thirty or forty, and as soon as the cannon sounded, the fire from the muzzle of the gun also exposed the position of the artillery position to the defenders.

The artillery of the 547th Regiment was worried that they could not find a target, and as soon as the Japanese opened fire, the artillery of the defenders had a target, and the commander of the heavy firepower battalion, Shao Jincheng, gave an order, and dozens of mortars fired a salvo at the Japanese artillery position. Seeing that there was also artillery on the position, the Japanese hurriedly turned the muzzle, and the two sides engaged in an artillery battle in the dark night.

However, the artillery of the 547th Regiment took the lead, and their round of artillery had already caused the Japanese artillery positions to lose more than 10 guns, and then the artillery battle began, and the Japanese army fell behind, and the artillery battle between the two sides lasted only 10 minutes, and the 547th Regiment made all the Japanese artillery positions dumb at the cost of losing more than 10 mortars.

Without artillery, the Japanese had to rely on infantry to storm the positions of the 547th Regiment. However, the narrow road and the fierce light and heavy machine gun fire on the position made it impossible for the Japanese to get close to the defenders' positions after several charges, and this situation made Takyuki Ueki, the head of the wing, helpless. The attacking 9th Brigade was unable to break through the positions of the 547th Regiment, while the 21st Brigade was struggling to block the Panzer Regiment's attack.

Masao Nakamura, commander of the 21st Brigade, immediately ordered the construction of a defensive line after receiving the order of Lieutenant General Seishiro Itagaki to block the Shina chariot unit on the spot. When rushing to repair the position, the remaining dozen or so 75-caliber field guns of the field artillery wing were also pulled up, ready to block the chariot troops in China. It's just that there is too little time left for the 21st Brigade, and it is impossible to build any kind of fortifications in such a short time.

After destroying most of the Japanese tanks, the Panzer Regiment continued to move forward in formation, but the first heavy tank was replaced by two tanks. After twenty minutes of pursuit, turning a corner, Japanese soldiers who were rushing to repair the fortifications appeared in front of them under the harsh lights of the tank. Seeing that there were Japanese troops in front, the first two tanks stopped the car and reported the situation to the regiment commander.

Wu Jianzhou only said one sentence when he heard the report: "Give me a very strong blow with a vehicle-mounted machine gun." "Two heavy tanks in front and two light armored vehicles rushing up from behind, at the same time, with on-board heavy machine guns, strafed the Japanese troops under the lights. After seeing the lights of the armored regiment fighting vehicle, the Japanese army had already laid down behind the bunker and fortifications that had just been dug up, and the heavy machine gun fire on the vehicle only killed a few dozen Japanese soldiers.

However, the Japanese artillery took the opportunity to aim at the combat vehicles in front with more than a dozen 75 field guns and fired a round of artillery bombardment. The shells fell in the convoy of the armored regiment, and the shells of the 75 field guns could hardly do any damage to the tanks, but these armored vehicles could not defend against it, as if they were light armored vehicles. One of the shells hit by this round of shelling fell on a light armored vehicle in front, penetrated the armor of the light armored vehicle, and exploded inside the vehicle, destroying the light armored car and all four crew members in the car.

The sound of the explosion of the armored car and the light of the fire caused a burst of cheers from the Japanese position, and Wu Jianzhou angrily shouted into the on-board radio: "Tank car, use your vehicle-mounted guns to kill the little Japanese artillery for me!" At the same time as Wu Jianzhou gave the order, the shells of the second round of Japanese artillery shelling fell on the ranks of the armored regiment, and this time fortunately, only two heavy tanks and two light tanks were hit by the shells.

Wu Jianzhou was afraid that there would be further losses in the armored car, so he hurriedly ordered the armored car to reverse and leave the tank. When the third round of Japanese artillery fell, the shells from the tank gun counterattack also fell on the Japanese artillery positions. The power of the 100-millimeter caliber tank gun on the heavy tank vehicle after using the grenade is more than that of the Japanese army's 75 field guns, and the tank vehicles can not be afraid of the Japanese army's shells, so the two sides exchanged shells for a few rounds, and the Japanese army's more than 10 75 field guns were all finished.

After destroying the Japanese artillery, the tanks aimed the Japanese infantry with vehicle-mounted guns and vehicle-mounted heavy machine guns, and then the tanks began to run directly over the Japanese positions. The Japanese infantry were powerless to stop the crushing of the chariots and could only retreat. However, thousands of Japanese troops were blocking at the same time, and the tanks were not afraid of damage and could not deal with so many Japanese troops at the same time.

When the two sides were at a stalemate, the 543rd Regiment and the Guard Battalion came up under the cover of armored vehicles, and the officers and men of the 543rd Regiment and the Guard Battalion had more than half of the automatic weapons in their hands, and the 54-Type submachine guns could exert their greatest power in this situation. With the addition of more than 1,000 fresh troops and dozens of armored vehicles, the Japanese army finally couldn't parry, and gradually began to show signs of defeat.

The two sides were fighting fiercely, and the two regiments of the teaching corps also caught up, which became the last straw that crushed the Japanese army, and the rout of the Japanese army was irreversible. Itagaki Seishiro was still in his temporary headquarters thinking about sending troops to Central China to ask for aircraft support, and Nakamura Masao panicked in, and before Itagaki Seishiro attacked, Nakamura Masao shouted: "Your Excellency Division Commander, my soldiers have not been able to stop the chariot of the Shina people, and now that they have been defeated, please evacuate quickly Your Excellency the Division Commander and the Chief of Staff." ”

Seishiro Itagaki said in surprise: "Nani, one of your brigades didn't even stop the Shina?" Nakamura Masao lowered his head and said, "My subordinates are ashamed, now I should ask Your Excellency the division commander to evacuate quickly." Seishiro Itagaki glared at Masao Nakamura fiercely and walked out of the temporary headquarters.

The Japanese troops outside the temporary headquarters were in chaos, and the sound of machine guns in the distance had been heard from afar, Itagaki looked at the black in the distance, and said helplessly: "Withdraw!" and then retreated under the protection of the pro-guards. However, the 9th Division has not yet broken through the position of the 547th Regiment, so where can they retreat?

When Seishiro Itagaki and others converged with Major General Noboru Kunisaki, Major General Noboru Kunisaki heard that the situation was not good, and he couldn't care so much, so he ordered his two wings to charge the defenders' positions desperately. Thousands of Japanese troops in the two wings rushed densely along the mountain road to the position of the 543rd Regiment, and the 543rd Regiment was fully fired, but the Japanese army completely put aside life and death, and just blindly rushed upward, the people in front fell, and the people in the back stepped on the corpses of the people in front and rushed up.

The fighters on the positions no longer knew how many enemies they had killed, they only knew how to shoot, reload, shoot. And when the bullets ran out, and the grenades were also thrown away, finally the soldiers of the two companies reached the time when there were really no bullets available, and at this time they could no longer block the desperate onslaught of the Japanese army.

The Japanese finally waited until the position and stopped firing bullets, and after shouting, they rushed to the position of the 547th Regiment, and the soldiers of the two companies on the position were immediately overwhelmed by the sea of Japanese soldiers. By the time the rest of the 547th Regiment found out that it was not right to attack the Japanese army, many Japanese troops had already broken through their positions and fled in the direction of Tangshan.

There were also many Japanese troops intercepted by the 547th Regiment, and these Japanese troops were no longer able to break through the positions of the 547th Regiment, and under the flanking attack of the armored regiment and other troops that rushed to the 547th Regiment, the whole army was annihilated. When Seishiro Itagaki led the remnants of his troops to Kirin Town, there were less than 2,000 men left, and even Major General Nakamura Masao, the commander of the 21st Brigade, died on the way to the assault.

After dawn, Wang Haitao came to the foot of the Purple Mountain, looked at the battlefield full of wolves, and then walked forward with the guards. When Wang Haitao came to the battlefield of the tank battle, the destroyed Japanese tank was still emitting green smoke.

When Wang Haitao wanted to move forward, the armored regiment's chariots and guard battalions withdrew from the front, a tank stopped not far from Wang Haitao, and Wu Jianzhou, the commander of the armored regiment, jumped out of the tank and walked towards Wang Haitao, while the Tangshan leopard was also running towards Wang Haitao. The two came to Wang Haitao and saluted and shouted: "The military seat, the armored regiment and the guard battalion have completed their tasks and are returning to the city." ”

After Wang Haitao returned the salute, he asked, "What is the result?" Tangshan Leopard replied: "Report to the military seat, except for some people of the Fifth Division of the Japanese Army, except for some people who escaped, the rest of the people have been annihilated, and the specific results are being counted." Wang Haitao nodded and then asked, "What are the casualties on our side?"

Tangshan Leopard said with a smile: "Military seat, there are big guys like the armored regiment, and small Japan can't stop it at all, others don't know, my guard battalion has more than a dozen wounded, and there are only four soldiers who died." Wu Jianzhou said: "Report to the military seat, the armored battalion lost a light armored car, lost five people and wounded six. ”

Wang Haitao nodded again and said, "Okay! Everyone has worked hard this time, let's go back to the city to rest first." After Tangshan Leopard transferred a guard platoon, he handed over the remaining soldiers to the commander of the guard battalion, and he took the guard platoon to follow Wang Haitao and walked forward. A jeep company chased after him, and after stopping, Gui Yongqing and Qiu Qingquan jumped out of the car, and at the same time, the adjutant who stayed behind from the headquarters jumped out of the car.
