Chapter 634: Breaking Out of the Encirclement [1]

Watching Wang Haitao magically take out one heavy weapon after another from the storage ring, Wei Changxing, Feng Zisheng and the soldiers around him had already turned a blind eye. The fighters quickly received the weapons, some checking the artillery, others starting their vehicles and checking the fuel. After all the inspections were completed, the light tank easily tore down the courtyard wall and drove out of the compound first.

The roaring engine broke the calm of the night in Wusha Town, and Wang Haitao sat in the cab of an armored truck and drove towards the north gate of Wusha Town with the convoy, and ten field guns were also towed to act together. When he arrived near the north gate, Wang Haitao first asked the soldiers to build artillery positions and place ten field guns, and then asked people to inform Huang Guizhong to bring all the troops to the north gate to assemble.

Huang Guizhong brought the team to the north gate, and when the officers and soldiers suddenly saw the chariot parked on the road, they all talked about it in surprise, and even Huang Guizhong and Zhou Kui couldn't help but ask Wang Haitao in surprise what the situation was. Wang Haitao didn't want them to know too much, so he could only say: "Now is not the time to explain, the breakthrough battle of the troops will start at half past five, and there are still a lot of things to prepare now, and I will talk to you in detail after the breakout." ”

Next, Wang Haitao conveyed orders one after another. Two light tanks, three heavy armored vehicles, five armored trucks, and five ordinary trucks quietly went out of the north gate with the main force of Huang Guizhong's independent regiment, and assembled at the front of the position, ready for an assault. The armored truck, which already had a heavy machine gun fixed, now has two small-caliber mortars and two light machine guns fixed to maximize the firepower.

Some of the fighters and all the wounded were also put on the trucks, and the ordinary trucks were also equipped with light and heavy machine guns. However, the independent regiment had not been trained to cooperate with the chariot, and the soldiers of the guard company who were responsible for driving the chariot repeatedly told Huang Guizhong what they should pay attention to when they attacked together. Seeing that Huang Guizhong and his subordinates were confused, the soldiers of the guard company also broke out in a cold sweat, and could only pray that there would be no major problems when they broke through.

Huang Guizhong took most of the team, Wang Haitao only left 300 people here, Wang Haitao will take two heavy armored vehicles, five armored trucks and the rest of the ordinary trucks, together with these 300 people for the whole army to be cut off. After Huang Guizhong led the team out of the city, Wang Haitao also asked Feng Zisheng to drive near the north gate with the three hundred soldiers and most of the vehicles.

At 5:30 a.m., 10 75-mm field guns, 20 120-caliber heavy mortars, and 30 100-caliber heavy mortars were concentrated on the artillery positions inside the north gate. As soon as Wang Haitao gave the order, 60 artillery pieces spat out tongues of fire one after another, and dozens of shells screamed and flew towards the positions of the 62nd Division and the newly formed 7th Division outside the north gate.

The fierce fighting lasted for two days, and the officers and men of the 62nd Division were also extremely exhausted. The attack stopped at one o'clock in the evening, and the officers and men of these countries on the positions were crowded with each other and fell asleep. The division commander Tao Liu was also slightly relieved that the defenders were besieged by regiments. Tao Liu also saw that the defenders were insufficient in numbers, and they could only parry the attack and have no power to fight back, so after ordering his subordinates to pay attention to vigilance, he also fell asleep in the camp tent.

A fierce explosion suddenly sounded in the ears of the sleeping Tao Liu, and then the shaking of the mountain made him jump directly from the marching bed. After many years of fighting horses, he didn't have to listen carefully to hear that a large number of shells had fallen on his position. Tao Liu rushed out of the camp tent in two steps, and the fire of the explosion of the cannonballs just out of the camp tent made his eyes snow-white.

As soon as Tao Liu's vision recovered, he saw that the position not far away was full of fires after the explosion of shells, and in the firelight, his soldiers were scurrying around, and from time to time someone screamed and fell. Just as he was frightened, an officer ran over with a dusty face and shouted: "Report to the division, the enemy has suddenly launched an attack on our position, and some troops have assembled in front of the position, I am afraid that they are trying to break through from our position." ”

Tao Liu's face changed when he heard this, and he shouted at the officer: "Go and organize the troops for Lao Tzu to resist! If you dare to let the communist army go, Lao Tzu will kill you!" The officer replied in a trill, "It's the division's seat, and I will go immediately!" After speaking, he turned around and ran away. At this time, the shelling continued, Tao Liu looked at the chaotic position, and secretly cursed: "When it was really his grandmother's back, the communist army actually chose to break through from me!"

The artillery positions were all operated by soldiers of the guard company, and these soldiers were selected by thousands of top soldiers in the entire 90 th Army, and the artillery fire was called accurate! The shells of dozens of guns were all on the front with a width of 100 meters, and they advanced row after row from the front of the enemy's formation. Looking at the time, the artillery fire had been fighting for five minutes, and Wei Changxing, who was standing in a heavy armored car, gave the order to attack.

With two light tanks as the tip of the knife, three heavy armored vehicles and five armored trucks as the blade, the combat vehicles formed an assault formation, like a sharp knife, straight into the position of the 62nd Division. Dozens of headlights pierced the night like sharp arrows, illuminating the 62nd Division's position. The gunners who operate the guns and the drivers on the chariots are all members of the guard company, and they have not known how many times they have practiced such assaults with each other, whether in training or in actual combat, so the cooperation is seamless.

The chariot rumbled forward, keeping a distance of fifty meters from where the shells landed. This distance of 50 meters not only ensured that the combat vehicle was not within the killing range of the shells, but also ensured that the enemy troops after being shelled did not have time to organize an effective counterattack. At this time, the troops in front of the 62nd Division were completely disorganized, and the soldiers could not find the generals, and they would not be able to find the soldiers.

Even if a few officers gathered the soldiers around them and wanted to fight back, the bullets hit the chariot, and in addition to clanging, it immediately attracted the attack of the artillery and looting on the chariot. After the only counterattack was also eliminated, the chariot plunged straight into the depth of the 62nd Division's position, as if entering a no-man's land. If any of the main forces of the 90th Army were here, then the tactics of following the chariots closely and using the chariots as cover to quickly widen the gap could be launched immediately.

But behind the battle body were the fighters of the independent regiment. The soldiers of the independent regiment basically saw their own chariots on the battlefield for the first time, and they all excitedly left the precautions given by the officers behind, and some of the soldiers not only did not follow closely behind the battlecar and rushed forward, but scattered in all directions to deal with the national army fleeing outside the gap.

The shelling lasted for 20 minutes, and Wang Haitao felt that it was almost over, and if the fight continued, the national army in the east reacted and rushed to support, and it would be difficult for his own part of the people to stand out again. Wang Haitao quickly retracted the cannon into the storage ring, and then let the soldiers board the car, and gathered the three hundred soldiers by the north gate to attack the north together.

Wang Haitao's idea was that the troops in front had already torn the gap and had advanced in depth to the enemy's position, so he only needed to move towards the enemy's army still in chaos, quickly break through the position, catch up with the main force, and then stand out together. However, when Wang Haitao broke through to the front of the enemy's position, he suddenly found that some of the soldiers of the independent regiment did not attack the enemy's interior, but were entangled with the enemy troops on both sides.

The front vehicles and infantry were disjointed, and hundreds of fighters and a few ordinary trucks were being besieged by the reacting enemy forces. This scene made Wang Haitao's anger rise from his heart. In desperation, Wang Haitao could only send a few small units to collect the soldiers of the Independent Regiment on both sides, and then he took heavy armored vehicles and armored trucks to relieve the soldiers of the encircled Independent Regiment.

When Wang Haitao rushed up, he scattered hundreds of soldiers of the national army, and relieved the encircled part of the soldiers, and the stragglers on both sides were also gathered together. Now Wang Haitao not only has more than a dozen trucks with him, but the number of soldiers has also increased to 7 or 800, but the time has also been delayed for half an hour, not only has the 62nd Division relieved its strength, and the newly formed 7th Division has surrounded it, but also the reinforcements sent from the east are about to arrive.

Wang Haitao did not dare to delay any longer, and ordered two heavy armored vehicles to open the way in front, and he personally led the infantry to follow closely behind the armored vehicles to coordinate protection. Behind the infantry were ordinary trucks, with heavy machine guns on the front and mortars mounted in the trunks as support fire. At the end of the line were five armored trucks, which relied on their fierce firepower and steel plates to block the enemy troops who were catching up.

When Wang Haitao rushed to the center of the enemy's position, there were more and more enemy troops, and the team was a little unable to break in, and then Wang Haitao began to be anxious in his heart, he knew that he must not let the team be blocked here, otherwise after a long time, he would be surrounded by tens of thousands of enemy troops, and he was afraid that what was waiting for him could only be annihilated. In a hurry, Wang Haitao picked up a rushing and sharp spear and shouted: "Brothers, we must stand out! Those who are not afraid of death will rush with me!" After shouting, he took the lead in passing over the immobile armored car and killing the enemy troops on the opposite side.

In the hearts of all the soldiers, Wang Haitao is the backbone, at this time, seeing Wang Haitao regardless of life and death, took the lead in rushing forward, suddenly his eyes were red, he opened his feet one by one, and quickly rushed towards the enemy, every soldier has a belief, that is, he must rush in front of Wang Haitao and block the bullets fired by him. Needless to say, Wang Haitao's skills are in the rush and front, which also refers to where to fight, a rush and front gun in hand, and the game is out of the picture.

The enemy troops on the opposite side could not aim at Wang Haitao at all, but under Wang Haitao's gun, one soldier after another fell. Wang Haitao rushed for a while, and found that there were comrades-in-arms on the left and right who were desperate to surpass him, and after surpassing him, they immediately blocked in front of him. Wang Haitao immediately understood what the purpose of the fighters was.

The enemy army on the opposite side was also organized in a hurry, and had just experienced the ravages of artillery fire and chariots, both the fighting spirit and morale had dropped to the bottom, Wang Haitao and their desperate charge, and really opened a gap, and the team began to advance from the gap again. But after breaking through less than 100 meters, the enemy troops on the opposite side gathered more and more, watching the comrades around him fall down one by one, even Wang Haitao was a little less confident about standing out.
