Dian Army

"Regiment commander, their Second Army is going to die in Taierzhuang, so we have to come here to clean up the garbage?" The ghost cannon has a lot of opinions about how he didn't go to Taierzhuang to participate in the battle. "Don't complain, we have to obey orders, you're not fighting devils there, what kind of consciousness are you?" Wu Fatzi said. "Ghost Cannon!" Liu Hai took the binoculars and said, "This place is not simple, Commander Sun really looks down on us!" "Commander, what do you think is the significance of this place?" Ghost Cannon asked. "You see, this Dongzhuang is not simple, the terrain here is high, the view is good, although it is a side branch position in Yixian, you see, the Japanese will at least take a wing to fight here, and when the time comes, you will have as many shells as there are devils!" Liu Hai pointed around and said, "I can't help it, this is also the area where the Japanese focus on attacking!" "I believe you, but there are only two battalions in front of us, I'm afraid it's a little less!" Fat Wu asked. "Don't underestimate those two battalions, I've been to see them, they are all Dian troops, all of them are fierce men, little Japan is in front of them, and they can't take advantage of it!" Bangs said. "What is the Dian Army, I know the Gui Army, I look at this Dian Army!" Ghost Cannon said.

"You are wrong," Liu Hai said, "although I don't know much about the warlord faction, but when I was in Huangpu, I heard a teacher say that this Yunnan army is still very well equipped, and their officers are all trained in the martial arts, which is completely different from the officers of other warlord forces who rely on nepotism and corruption." The Yunnan army has good discipline and active training in peacetime, so its military quality is excellent, especially in close combat, each person has a mountain knife, is fierce and fearless, and plays close combat, which should be completely stronger than the Japanese army."" Yes, yes, yes, or the head of the regiment is insightful! Wu Fatzi said, "These officers of the Yunnan army are really all two-hit, I have seen it, and the mountain knife is slippery!" "Don't worry, this little devil's bushido, when he encounters the Dian army, I'm afraid he will touch a bag!" Bangs said.

"Captain Liu praised it!" An officer came over and saluted: "Humble post, 1st Battalion, Major of the 1st Battalion of the 2nd Regiment of the 138th Division of the 60th Army, Battalion Commander Chen Kaiwen!" "Hello Camp Commander Chen!" Bangs return the favor! "This time, one of your artillery regiments will give us fire cover, we must cooperate sincerely and swear to resist the enemy and serve the country!" Camp Commander Chen slowed down for a moment and said, "That's the case, Commander Liu, I have something to ask for!" "You're welcome! If you have something, if you can help, I must have no second words! Bangs said cheerfully. That is true! The 183rd Division of our 60th Army intends to seize the Chen Wafang at the outpost of Yixian, but the Japanese army has a brigade there, and it is difficult to take it down without artillery support. "Hehehehe!" Liu Hai smiled, "What should I do, there is no problem, I will give you a base!" "Thank you, Commander Liu, you are the best talking Central Army I have ever seen!" Chen Kaiwen said happily.

Liu Hai looked at the Chen tile house in front of him with a telescope, and found that this village is really not easy to fight, the Japanese army's fortifications are very professionally repaired, it can be said that it is a very good field fortification, if this kind of fortification is carried by people, I am afraid that a battalion is not enough to die, it seems that the quality of this Yunnan army is different, at least there is no stupid rush, and they know how to fight for their own artillery support! "Captain Liu! I am the battalion commander of this attack, Yin Guohua, thank you for your artillery support, I know that the scope of our attack is not the task of your regiment! Battalion Commander Yin Guohua said. No, no, no, Battalion Commander Yin Guohua, you are wrong, as long as it is to fight small Japan, it will be our task! Bangs said, "When are you going to attack?" "In an hour, I will lead my officers and soldiers to attack and swear to take Chen Wafang!" "Good! When you attack, I'll teach you a way! Liu Hai stuffed the binoculars into Yin Guohua's hand and pointed in a direction for him to see, "Look at this Chen tile house, the east is high and the west is low, according to common sense, it should capture the east and condescendingly capture the west!" But you only have one battalion that is all dead on the road, and you can't take it, my suggestion is that I use artillery fire to suppress the Japanese fire in the east, you take the west first, and then use * bayonets for close combat, the streets in the village are not very wide, your mountain knives just work, the Japanese 38 big cover is too long, and it can't be used in that kind of place, do you understand? "Understood!" Yin Guohua said happily.

"Little Er, aren't you going to be a sharpshooter?" Bangs said to a gunner. "Sir, I will do it!" The one named Xiao Er said. "You follow that ditch, push a cannon up, and hit me the two fortifications at the mouth of this village! Is there a problem? Bangs said. There are no problems, voila well regimental commander! Xiao Er said happily. Liu Hai arranged his own artillery fire, two guns blew up the commanding height of Chen Wafang, four guns suppressed the Japanese artillery in the village, and the rest was to suppress the shooting, and use the maximum firepower to cover Battalion Commander Yin to capture Chen Wafang at one time! Under the exquisite firepower arrangement of Liu Hai, the first round of artillery shelling of the Japanese and the firepower point at the entrance of the village were killed without even a fart, and all the firepower points in the east were suppressed. Liu Hai watched the blue sky and white sun flag rise up, smiled and returned to Dongzhuang with his artillery battalion.

Liu Hai didn't know that the real bloody battle started after he left, after the Japanese brigade was driven out, and then a large number of Japanese troops rushed to Chen Wafang, with four armored vehicles and two tanks, and more than ten artillery pieces to attack Chen Wafang on the Bijing Road to attack the commanding heights of Dongzhuang. Battalion Commander Yin Guohua looked at the swarming Japanese troops, did not be afraid and flinched, but just clenched his mountain knife, and led the whole battalion to fight with the Japanese army for a day and a night, the Japanese army suffered more than 500 casualties, and the tanks and armored vehicles were all strapped up by the soldiers of the Yunnan Army. Even so, the Japanese army never attacked the Chen Wafang, and the last Japanese squad rushed in with all their courage, only to be blown up and buried in it by two wounded soldiers of the Yunnan army, and finally only the last seriously wounded soldier was carried back by the reinforcements who rushed in with great sacrifices.

"Commander Liu, battalion commander Yin Guohua has been loyal to the country with his brothers, and now the 50th and 10th divisions of the Japanese army are attacking Taierzhuang with the main force of one division, and the remaining division and directly subordinate wing, artillery brigade, divided into two attack clusters to attack us and Yuwang Mountain in the west, now we have something to do! It's up to you to fire then! Zhang Kaiwen said. Battalion Commander Yin is loyal to the country? Didn't they break in? Bangs asked in surprise. The attack was attacked, but the Japanese army soon began to counterattack, dozens of guns were closed to the death of the road, and the supporting battalion was killed and wounded by nearly a company before the only remaining seriously wounded man was carried back! Liu Kaiwen said. Battalion Commander Yin is good, and your Dian army is good! Bangs said. I heard that this battle was not small, and all the troops on the north bank of the canal were not allowed to withdraw to the south bank, that is to say, we could only hold our positions until victory, or death, and when we had the result, we would know if it was good, and if we were victorious, we were good, and if we died, it was good! Chen Kaiwen said. That's right, this time, let's join forces with the Central Army and the Dian Army to fight the enemy! Bangs said.

In fact, this time the battle was very large, the two divisions of the Japanese army participating in the attack were all pressed up, the Itagaki Division was defeated by Zhang Zizhong and Pang Tongxuan in Linyi, and the Isogu Division pressed Taierzhuang with all its might. According to the combat habits of the Japanese army, when attacking head-on, it is always necessary to cooperate with the tactics of flank breaking, so Dongzhuang, which was guarded by Liu Hai and the two Yunnan military battalions, became the focus of the attack. After reinforcing the artillery, a half wing of the Japanese army pressed towards the position of Dongzhuang, and the Liuhai Artillery Regiment, which was originally thought to be just a peripheral defense, also became part of the blocking position of Taierzhuang.

Liu Hai carefully observed the position of Dongzhuang, and found that the Japanese army had almost no way to go on the left flank, and if it was hard, it could only increase casualties, and outside the position of the Dian army on the right flank, there was a hillside, and there were two forests under the hillside, the forest was not small, Liu Hai calculated it, and there was no problem with hiding the Japanese squadron, and the Japanese would definitely put the attacking troops in which forest at that time. In addition, behind the woods, which is also the farthest effective range of the bangs cannon, there is a ditch, and that ditch can hide at least one brigade to hide there! It didn't take long for Liu Hai to have a good idea, the Japanese attacking troops would definitely enter the ditch outside first, and then enter the forest to prepare for an attack, but Liu Hai calculated that the distance between the forest and the ditch did not exceed fifty meters, and if he climbed closer, it was possible to throw * into the ditch, and as soon as the Japanese army entered the ditch, the troops hiding in the forest would throw * into the ditch, and Liu Hai's artillery would block the exit of the ditch with firepower, so it was very likely to kill a Japanese brigade!

After Liu Hai thought about it, he went to Camp Commander Zhang to discuss, and Camp Chief Zhang and Liu Hai surveyed the terrain together, and found that the distance between the forest and the ditch was less than 40 meters, and it was completely possible to throw * into the forest. Battalion Commander Zhang decided to adopt this opinion and teach the arrogant little devil a good lesson!
