Chapter 957: The Devil's Division of Troops (First Update)
"Battalion commander...... The regimental headquarters sent an urgent telegram, and the devil reinforcements set off...... More than 1,300 cavalry, fourteen chariots, all tanks! The cavalry battalion operator rushed to the side of the horse, excited and nervous.
Ma Houshi frowned and stared at Chen Jianqiao, the commander of the engineer company, and asked: "Old Chen, I'll solve the cavalry, and you can solve the tank~ A total of fourteen tanks, are you sure to kill them!" ”
Chen Jianqiao smiled bitterly: "Battalion Commander Ma, you are also too good-looking for our engineer company~ We want guns without guns, we want guns without guns, how can we destroy so many tanks at one time......"
"The commander's order?" A worried expression appeared directly on Ma Houshi's face!
"The regiment commander's order will definitely be completed~ Even if all the engineer companies are wiped out, it will not affect the overall situation of the regiment commander, please rest assured that the battalion commander Ma!" Chen Jianqiang replied firmly
"Although the engineer company doesn't have the strength to kill them, you can find a way to drag them down, and I have chosen the terrain!"
"Battalion Commander Ma, look at the map, there will be a mountain road of nearly five kilometers from the stone bridge, I walked again during the day, there is a cliff pass here, the road passes through the cliff pass, if I blow up this cliff pass and the stone bridge that the little devil just passed through at the same time, then they will be trapped on this road."
"Of course, the devil's tank can also choose to take the mountain road and detour to other roads to continue to move forward~ However, in this way, they will have to go around this mountain for more than 100 kilometers~"
"The tanks have limited fuel, and they don't have a car to transport supplies and fuel to follow, and when they run out of fuel, the tank can only lie on its stomach and can't move!"
"I wonder if we can capture a dozen tanks from the devils lying in our base area by then!"
"Good way......" The worried expression on Ma Houshi's face was instantly swept away, and then he ordered.
"In that case, let's go our separate ways...... You're up against the devil tank...... I'll deal with the devil cavalry~"
"Blowing up the cliff pass can block the passage of the devil tank, but it can't stop the devil cavalry, they can dismount and directly cross the ruins, but it needs to be delayed for a few more minutes!"
"More than a thousand devil cavalry elites, for our cavalry battalion, it is also an unprecedented huge pressure!"
"Boom ......"
The roar of the engine mixed with the sound of horses' hooves is not very obvious, but the two sounds can be heard far away.
In less than half an hour, the mixed army formed by cavalry and chariots reached the cliff mouth mentioned by Chen Jianqiao.
"Detonate ......," Chen Jianqiao ordered with excitement on his face.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
As the instructor pressed the detonation lever, the ground under his feet suddenly trembled, and then a violent explosion like thunder reached his ears.
"Company commander, the cliff mouth was blown up by us!" Looking at the cliff mouth filled with gunsmoke two hundred meters away, the subordinates next to him shouted excitedly.
Chen Jianqiao replied confidently: "At that time, of course~ Although the high explosives in the regimental stockpile were used up, the black gunpowder was still there, and I also dismantled a full twenty heavy artillery shells and took hundreds of catties of high explosives from them!" With so much gunpowder, not to mention a cliff mouth, even if a mountain is placed in front of us, we can blow it up! ”
As he spoke, the smoke of gunpowder that shrouded the cliff mouth had slowly dissipated.
A bloody picture appeared in front of them.
A tank and dozens of cavalry around it were buried in the debris of the cliff mouth, because there were too many corpses of all kinds, and a stone mountain with a height of more than five meters was piled up directly on the cliff mouth road.
On both sides of the stone mountain, the devil cavalry who had passed through the cliff mouth and those who had not passed through the cliff mouth all looked at the broken corpse mountain at the cliff mouth with a stunned face~
After the headquarters of the Japanese division outside Xiangfen City learned that the 135th Wing had been attacked and that the new regiment was likely to swallow one of its own infantry wings in one gulp, Lieutenant General Ito's sleepiness suddenly disappeared.
Guarding the war room, pacing back and forth.
Although he didn't speak, everyone in the command could see the anxiety in the heart of the division commander at this moment.
Therefore, although there were several people working in the tent, everyone was cautious, afraid that a noise would detonate the anxiety of the division commander, and then vent their anger on themselves.
"Division commander, cavalry wing emergency ...... Something happened to them! ”
The presence of the chief of staff broke the silence in the tent, but made the atmosphere even more oppressive.
Tonight, since dark, Lieutenant General Ito has not received any good news in this tent, not even a single one.
Everyone saw that Lieutenant General Ito's face instantly turned gloomy from the initial worry, and then it took a long time to react.
"What's going on~"
"It's ...... here," the chief of staff said, pointing to the map.
"There is a cliff pass here, and there are mountains on both sides, and the road passes through the cliff pass. However, the Eighth Route Army planted a large amount of explosives at the mouth of the cliff, and the mouth of the cliff was blown up when the reinforcements passed...... The flying rocks that fell from the sky not only buried one of our tanks and a squad of cavalry, but also blocked a five-meter-high stone mountain on the road, and the tank troops could not continue to reinforce the 135th Wing through the cliff pass! ”
"I see!" Lieutenant General Ito replied with a calm face.
"The reason why the Eighth Route Army dares to attack the 135th Wing under our noses is that it relies on this cliff pass, blocking our reinforcements through the cliff pass, and buying time for them to attack the 135th Wing!"
"No! The enemy's treacherous schemes must not be allowed to succeed, and the 135th Wing must not be wiped out~ Otherwise, we will become the sinners of the empire! ”
"Chief of Staff, is there a road to bypass this cliff!"
"Yes...... But you need to go around more than a hundred kilometers~ However, at the speed of a chariot, you will definitely be able to reach the battlefield in four hours! The chief of staff pointed to the map.
Lieutenant General Ito shook his head and vetoed: "No! It's been too long...... The Eighth Route Army, which attacked the 135th Wing, was equipped with armored vehicles, and they also lost all their heavy artillery and mountain artillery, so they would definitely not be able to hold out for that long! ”
The chief of staff hesitated and replied: "Then there is only one way~"
"Reinforcements are divided...... The cavalry crossed the mountain of broken corpses at the mouth of the cliff, and continued to reinforce the 135th Wing on the same route, and it would be possible to reach the battlefield in a maximum of forty minutes! ”
"The tank brigade is detouring, reinforcing the 135th Wing!"
"That's it!" Lieutenant General Ito gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"Although it is dangerous to divide the troops, in order to rescue the 135th Wing, I can't manage so much! No matter how big the risk is, I have to take it, in a word, I will never allow a wing to be completely annihilated by the Eighth Route Army in my hands! ”
"I'll give the order right away!" The chief of staff raised his leg and prepared to rush out.
"Wait a minute!" Lieutenant General Ito chased after the order.
"Remind the cavalry wing that they cannot be opponents of armored vehicles, but the number of armored vehicles in the hands of the Eighth Route Army is limited, and it is impossible to be everywhere. Therefore, when you get to the battlefield, avoid armored vehicles as much as possible, pick the infantry of the Eighth Route Army, and relieve the siege of the 135th Wing! ”
"As long as you rescue an infantry brigade, the rest will be much easier!"
