Chapter 964: Tank Battalion? (Second Update!) )
"Commander...... Is it true......" After reading the telegram, Huang Yuanqiang's face was shrouded in excitement.
"On the battlefield, we found that there was one little devil, one Dazuo, three Zhongzuo, six Shaozuo, and one of the devils in the infantry wing, and none of the officers above the junior Zuo escaped the net, and all of them were covered by us."
"In addition to the high-ranking officers of the devils, 3,958 bodies of the little devils were also found intact on the battlefield, plus those that were blown up by shells, the total number of devils eliminated must be more than 4,200 people, and one infantry wing and two brigades, only escaped less than 300 stragglers, this is another unprecedented victory!"
"Zhong Chenggong played well!" Wang Ping let go of another worry in his heart.
"After this battle, Lao Zhong, the chief of staff of the regiment, is not only qualified, but also has no problem being the regiment commander and even the brigade chief of staff!"
Huang Yuanqiang was very happy to agree: "The chief of staff has indeed made great progress! ”
"Because I jumped directly from the deputy battalion commander to the position of the regimental chief of staff, the foundation is very thin. However, he loves to learn very much, and as long as he has time, he will take the battle reports reported to us by the military region and the battles we have fought ourselves, and study them according to the map, and it is impossible not to make progress! ”
Speaking of this, Huang Yuanqiang continued while handing the telegram in his hand to Wang Ping: "The rest are all captured, and they are almost the same as ours here~ all the equipment of a field artillery brigade and a heavy artillery brigade. Plus there is a squadron of mountain artillery, all the equipment of a squadron of rapid-fire guns! ”
"25 mortars were captured, 31 heavy machine guns were captured, there were more light machine guns, a full 68, and more than 2,200 other long and short guns!"
"The ammunition is the same as ours, the ammunition reserves of the baggage troops have been blown up by the little devils at the critical moment, and the portable ammunition captured from the combat troops has not even been replenished with half of the battlefield consumption!"
"Although the harvest and results were very large, the casualties of the troops were also very large."
"The three main battalions plus the armored battalion have a total strength of more than 4,000 people participating in the battle, and now there are less than 2,000 people who can still move, and 1,658 people have been directly sacrificed, and the armored battalion has lost five armored vehicles of our own modification, and two original armored vehicles of the devil have been captured. If it weren't for the fact that there were armored vehicles participating in the battle, neither of the two brigades from which the devils were divided would have had anti-tank weapons. Even if all of our past 4,000 people are exhausted, they won't be able to take down the devil's infantry wing! ”
Wang Ping nodded thoughtfully at first, and then directly stated his reason and confidence for fighting this battle.
"This is called overcoming the enemy's shortcomings with one's own strengths, and it is precisely because I know that the devils are not equipped with anti-tank weapons that I have the courage to let the chief of staff fight this battle. Otherwise, I wouldn't have the courage to resist a field infantry wing with two or four thousand people! ”
"You must know that on the frontal battlefield, a field infantry wing of the devil can easily withstand the attack of a main division of the Jin Sui Army, not to mention that this infantry wing has also strengthened a field artillery brigade and a heavy artillery brigade......"
"Although the casualties are a little larger, the foundation of the troops is still there."
"And after this big defeat, the devil who has suffered heavy losses will not have a few months and it will not be possible to regain his strength at all. This means that after the end of this anti-encirclement and suppression, we will have at least three months of rest and recuperation, and it is possible to do it for half a year! ”
"As long as there is time, the foundation of the troops is still there, plus the equipment we captured in this battle, it won't take a few months for the troops to regain their strength!"
While everyone in the command was immersed in the joy of victory, the communications platoon commander rushed in again.
"The regiment commander, the commissar, the cavalry battalion telegraph, the same good news!"
This time, Wang Ping took the telegram directly, and after reading it, his face was covered with a thick smile, and then announced loudly: "Comrades, the cavalry battalion and the engineer company have also won a great victory!" ”
"There are more than 1,300 cavalry in the Devil Cavalry Wing, except for less than 300 cavalry who escaped, the remaining more than 1,000 people were all killed by the cavalry battalion!"
"In the whole battle, they captured a total of 589 horses, 1,085 sets of cavalry equipment, and the rest of the horses were either killed or injured and could not recover. Not surprisingly, our new group will come for a month, and we will have horse meat to eat and horse bone broth to drink! ”
"There is also the engineer company, they are not far behind, dragged all the way until the devil tank ran out of fuel, successfully took the tank detachment of the devil tank brigade, captured 12 intact tanks, destroyed two, and one was buried, one was blown into the river, but it will definitely be dragged out......"
Huang Yuanqiang has seen the power of armored vehicles on the battlefield.
And the tank is more powerful on the battlefield, if the new regiment is also equipped with tanks, then the combat effectiveness will definitely soar in a straight line.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at it and asked: "Regiment commander, with these dozen tanks, can our new regiment set up a tank battalion!" ”
"If there is a battalion of tanks and we encounter little devils on the battlefield, our tanks can rampage on the battlefield and slaughter little devils!"
Wang Ping did not answer.
Regardless of the light tanks or armored vehicles equipped by the little devils, Wang Ping couldn't look down on them.
As long as the opponent is equipped with anti-tank guns, or large-caliber machine guns, whether it is an armored vehicle or a thin-skinned tank, it will immediately turn back into an iron coffin, and the more it goes, the more it will be destroyed by the opponent.
As for why the new regiment created an armored battalion, it was because the armored vehicles were lighter, simple to maintain, and less demanding on the terrain. More importantly, the firepower of the armored vehicle is high, which is more suitable for covering the infantry to launch an assault.
The tank is different, it is too heavy, and the base area cannot be walked on any other road except the main road.
What's more, because the tank uses a specialized engine, it is very difficult to maintain and maneuver. Therefore, for these tanks, except for a small number that will be equipped to the armored battalion and train a group of qualified armored soldiers for the troops, the remaining tanks Wang Ping does not plan to equip the troops, but to do other things with it!
"Let's not talk about this yet!" Wang Ping brought up this topic in one sentence, and then shifted his gaze back to the map in front of him!
"Commissar, we already know the results of the army's battle in one night. This means that the devils encircled and suppressed our troops, and now there is a 136th Wing and more than 2,000 people left in their division headquarters! ”
"According to the report of the reconnaissance company, they are retreating with all their strength under the cover of the aircraft, and they want to quickly withdraw from our base area and return to Linfen!"
"My idea is that I can't let the little devil leave so easily!"
"I have asked all the cavalry messengers of the regiment headquarters to set off overnight, and ordered all local troops, guerrillas, and militias along the line to do a good job of clearing the wilderness, and destroy the highway to slow down the retreat of the devils!"
"This is not enough, I plan to send troops to kill them, continue to sneak attack them through movement warfare, guerrilla warfare, and night warfare, at least I must leave all the heavy weapons in the hands of the devils in the base area, even if they are blown up!"
"As long as the devil is out of heavy weapons, we will kill another thousand people on the way back. If the devils want to regain their strength and attack again to take revenge on us, it will take longer! ”
"There is a guard battalion in the 136th Wing, but it's not enough~ Send a telegram to the chief of staff: The three battalions are fully equipped, bring all the ammunition, and quickly move closer to the location of the 136th Wing of the devil in a platoon. Order the new 3rd Battalion, complete the equipment, bring enough ammunition, and move closer to the 136th Wing in the same way! ”
"The guard battalion, the three battalions, the new three battalions, unified under the command of the chief of staff, to strike at the 136th Wing of the Japanese army!"
"I'm going to send a telegram right now!" The commissar was in a hurry and was about to rush out.
Wang Ping hurriedly stopped him: "Wait a minute...... After the three battalions followed the devils all the way to the outside of Linfen City, they didn't need to retreat, they just bypassed Linfen and took this place for me......"
Wang Ping pointed directly to Ji County and Xiangning County southwest of Linfen City on the map.
The commissar looked at the map, opened his mouth, looked shocked, and didn't react for a long time!
