820 Jedi Strikes Back Wait for your time
The debut of the anti-tank rocket launcher greatly exceeded the expectations of both the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army.
The six tanks and ten armored vehicles that the Japanese army had advanced were ambushed by the fighters in two nearby areas.
With a round of bazooka raids.
In the blink of an eye, most of the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles were destroyed.
The next battle is even more suspenseful.
Japanese tanks and armored vehicles were bombarded by rockets, and soon became piles of broken copper and iron.
The little devil who followed in the rear was already a toothless tiger in the horror on his face.
The shocking defeat of the tank unit caused a violent psychological impact on the Japanese infantry who followed up.
With the destruction of the last Japanese armored vehicle, the Japanese troops who followed in the rear fell into a full-fledged fire downwind.
The captain of the devil brigade, who was completely stunned, hurriedly gave the order to strategically turn in.
But Han Feng would not give the little devil a chance to escape.
At the same time that the anti-tank combat team set traps for the devil's tanks and armored vehicles, Han Feng also led the main force of the fourth battalion to set up an ambush for the Japanese brigade that was fighting with tanks and armored vehicles.
The tanks and armored vehicles of the Japanese army were the first to be defeated.
Han Feng immediately gave the order to attack, and the soldiers quickly surrounded the Japanese army from both flanks because of the loss of tanks and armored vehicles in the retreat, which was no longer a threat to the soldiers of the fourth battalion.
"Hit-"
The mobility of the Japanese army in mountain operations was far less flexible than that of the soldiers of the former mountain companies of the 4th Battalion.
The retreating Japanese troops were quickly intercepted by the soldiers of the 4th Battalion from the left and right flanks.
A fierce confrontation broke out between the two sides.
At this time, the main force of the fourth battalion, which condescendingly launched a firepower attack, with the help of sophisticated equipment at hand, could almost be said to crush the Japanese brigade throughout the whole process.
The Japanese troops, who followed along with tanks and armored vehicles, did not expect anything.
The tanks and armored vehicles they thought they were invincible would be directly destroyed in an instant by the unknown anti-tank weapons used by this group of Eighth Route Army.
The destruction of tanks and armored vehicles together crushed the confidence of this Japanese brigade to engage with the Eighth Route Army.
In the confrontation between the two sides, the grenadiers of the devils were inferior to the 60 mortars in the hands of the soldiers of the four regiments.
The crooked handle of the devil could not withstand the Browning machine gun in the hands of the soldiers.
The Type 38 rifle is no match for the Garand rifle.
quickly entered the white-hot confrontation, and the little devil fought a grievance.
Since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the Japanese army, which has always been able to achieve firepower superiority in wars, has lost all its firepower superiority at this moment.
"Immediately communicate with Command and request tactical guidance!"
The captain of the devil brigade, who was holding a command knife, saw the soldiers fighting on the left and right flanks falling one after another, and gave the order in a hurry.
The fierce confrontation between the two sides naturally quickly aroused the vigilance of the nearby Japanese sweeping troops.
A large number of devils quickly reinforced.
Ten minutes after this firefight.
Han Feng was deployed at the edge of the battle area in advance, and the scouts, who were always alert to Japanese reinforcements, quickly reported the news with walkie-talkies:
"Battalion commander, devil reinforcements have come from the south, at least a full brigade of troops!"
Han Feng gave an order, and when he saw it, he would accept it, "Each company alternately covers and retreats!" ”
In this way, with the rapid withdrawal of the main force of the fourth battalion, the pressure on the side of the Japanese brigade suddenly decreased.
The captain of the devil brigade breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the troops of the Eighth Route Army, which were still orderly and powerful in the process of evacuation, he didn't dare to mention the idea of continuing the pursuit.
He looked again at his own fortifications.
A large number of Imperial warriors lay on this cold land that did not belong to their homeland.
The combat effectiveness of this Eighth Route Army unit is very strong.
The two sides fought for only ten minutes.
The tanks and armored vehicles belonging to the Japanese tank units were completely destroyed.
The Japanese brigade that followed up suffered more than 1/3 casualties.
"Your Excellency ...... Captain"
The devil staff officer on the side wanted to speak and stopped, but he didn't continue to speak, but the humiliation, shock, and fear left by this battle to them were self-evident.
The final topic shifted to the new anti-tank combat weapons that the Eighth Route Army had since demonstrated.
"Your Excellency, what are those black cylindrical weapons in the hands of the Eighth Route Army? I noticed that they could even fight on their own and directly destroy the tanks and armored vehicles of our Imperial Japan with a single shot. ”
"Such a weapon is terrible, and it is simply a mortal threat to the tank forces of my Great Japanese Empire."
"yes!"
The Devil Captain nodded thoughtfully, this was the news that he was in a hurry to report to the General Headquarters.
At this time, the signal corpsman hurriedly arrived, "Report to the sir, reinforcements have arrived!" ”
This news made the devil officers present breathe a sigh of relief, the reinforcements arrived, and the danger was completely lifted.
Looking at the area where the two sides are fighting, the smoke of gunfire is still filling.
The captain of the devil brigade said in his heart: "These eight roads, in the exchange of fire, they are clearly rushing to annihilate our department, if it is not for the rapid arrival of our army's reinforcements, the consequences are really unpredictable." ”
The rest of the devil officers were silent.
Although they don't want to admit it, this is the truth, just because the firepower of the Eighth Route Army just now is strong, well-equipped, and combative.
The destruction of the Uchida Brigade of the Kwantung Army is still vivid.
Not to mention such an ordinary field force as them.
……
……
Boom –
In the ensuing breakout operation.
By knocking out devil tanks and armored vehicles, the fighters of the anti-tank combat group tasted the sweetness.
Only then did I find out that using the anti-tank rocket launcher in my hand to knock out the devil's turret and stronghold was also invincible.
A rocket bombarded the past, and no matter how strong the devil's turret was, it seemed that it would crumble in an instant.
After all, most of the turrets built by the devils in the Zhongtiao Mountains are still brick and stone structures, not reinforced concrete structures.
How could it be possible to block such a sharp weapon as rocket artillery?
The little devils, who usually serve as fortifications, turrets and stronghold buildings that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, are now like burying their own graves.
In the process of leading the main force of the fourth battalion to break through, Han Feng easily uprooted three strongholds and eight artillery towers of the Japanese army in one go, completely breaking the encirclement of the Japanese army, and making the little devil lose the whereabouts of the fourth battalion.
……
The rear of the Japanese army, the general headquarters of Nakajo Mountain.
It was learned that the tank troops had fallen into the trap of the Eighth Route Army, and all the tanks and armored vehicles were destroyed by a new type of anti-tank combat weapon in the shape of a cylinder.
The devil officers were all dumbfounded.
An anti-tank weapon in a cylinder, which can even be operated by a single soldier?
Is there really such an artifact?
Doesn't that mean that the invincible tank combat on the Chinese battlefield is about to come to an end?
Coming back to his senses, the devil commander quickly analyzed the evolution of the current battle situation in Zhongtiao Mountain in his heart.
Although the Great Japanese Empire lost the Uchida Brigade bitterly, it was defeated by the Eighth Route Army and lost tanks and armored vehicles.
But it still has an absolute advantage in terms of troops.
The main force of the Eighth Route should also be in the middle area of the county army at this moment, which is encircled by the shrinking sweeping forces.
If this sweep ends hastily, because of the destruction of the Uchida Brigade and the tank unit, it can be regarded as a fiasco.
This was undoubtedly a great shame for the Japanese army.
What's more, it will shake the morale of the three armed forces.
The devil commander can't afford this responsibility, so even if he is ruthless, he wants to try to seek a decisive battle with the independent 4th regiment before the sweep is completely over.
I hope to inflict a heavy blow on my opponent and give an explanation to His Excellency the Commander.
Time flies quickly.
The situation has quietly changed......
The devil commander's judgment was generally correct.
Although it destroyed the Devil's Kwantung Army Brigade, it also knocked out the Japanese tank unit and severely damaged the Japanese army brigade that followed up.
However, the disparity between the strength of the Fourth Regiment and the Japanese was still huge.
The combat effectiveness of the devil's troops is not bad, especially the current group of field main forces used for sweeping, which quickly defeated more than 200,000 central troops in the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain.
Most of the devil officers also graduated from non-commissioned officers or officer colleges.
The military literacy is quite solid.
Under the mobilization of the Japanese general headquarters, more than 10,000 Japanese troops adopted the tactics of encircling but not attacking, advancing step by step, constantly compressing the living space of the main force of the independent fourth regiment besieged in the central area.
Aware of the fierce and well-armed Japanese troops of the four regiments.
With the help of the dangerous terrain along the way, it was used as a fortification.
Effectively reduced the firepower advantage of the 4th Independent Regiment.
In addition, a considerable number of reserves were deployed in the rear of the Japanese army.
Once the Eighth Route Army chooses a certain place from inside the encirclement as a breakthrough point, the Japanese reserve troops will quickly reinforce the past and assist in garrisoning.
Blocking without pursuing, constantly depleting the ammunition of the Eighth Route Army.
Because the devil commander has long noticed that with the American-style equipment used in large quantities in the hands of the Eighth Route Army, whether it is semi-automatic rifles, submachine guns, or light and heavy machine guns, the consumption of firepower is quite rapid.
That's a much frightening rate of ammunition consumption compared to standard bolt-action rifles.
In addition, the other party is in the middle of the encirclement, and there is no logistics to supplement.
If you continue to fight like this, sooner or later you will run out of ammunition stored in the hands of this group of eight roads.
The devil is surrounded by two sides.
In fact, the encirclement is very large, and there are mountainous areas that stretch for more than ten miles, including some areas with slower terrain.
However, the Japanese garrisoned all the passes that left the area.
If you want to break out of the encirclement smoothly, you can't avoid a confrontation with the Japanese garrison after all.
Provisional Command of the Fourth Regiment.
The Japanese army besieged but did not attack, and its intentions were already exposed.
The regiment commander Wang Huaibao immediately analyzed the evil intentions of the Japanese army, "This is to completely trap us in the encirclement, until we run out of ammunition and food, and then catch them all!" ”
He then asked, "How many teams have broken out?" ”
The commander of the second battalion said: "The main force of the fourth battalion has already broken through.
But the main forces of our other three battalions are basically still within the encirclement of the devils. ”
This battle was very helpless, there were little devils back and forth, and it was impossible to kill it.
"Damn, this group of bitches raised, regiment commander, let's concentrate our forces and choose a place to break through directly!" The battalion commander who was furious opened his mouth and said.
With the help of the American-style equipment transported by the old regiment commander, this battle was originally fought heartily.
Who would have thought that the little devil would suddenly adjust his tactics and play a scoundrel.
Taking advantage of the superiority of troops, he played the strategy of guarding the plant and waiting for the rabbit, that is, to besiege but not attack.
The soldiers had excellent equipment in their hands, but for a moment they felt that it was a little useless.
After all, the equipment of the little devils is not bad, and with the help of fortifications to defend, they have the advantage of troops.
Whether the 4th Independent Regiment, which took the initiative to attack, can break through is two theories.
The casualties of the Fourth Regiment were certainly not small, and it was very likely that they would fall into the encirclement of the Japanese army.
Therefore, for the suggestion that the first battalion commander was more angry, Wang Huaibao directly shook his head, "No, the Japanese army is holding on to the danger, and no matter how hard our firepower is, it is impossible to directly destroy all the devils remotely." ”
"Then you can only pay a considerable price for casualties and try to break through the enemy fortifications."
"This style of play is too risky, our casualties are unavoidable, not to mention, and it is very likely that we will fall into the tricks of the devils and fall into a heavy encirclement."
But the counterpart to the offense......
It is not a way to continue to stalemate with the Japanese army, and with the contraction of the encirclement of the devils, the fourth regiment will sooner or later lose all space for maneuver.
At that time, they could only be forced to engage in a decisive battle with the main forces of the Japanese army.
That's not what the fighters want to see.
"It's not a fight, it's not a fight, Commander, so what should we do?" The battalion commander said helplessly.
"If we continue to consume it like this, let's not talk about breaking through, I'm afraid the ammunition at hand will run out."
Anxious and angry cadres, all eyes converged on the head of the regiment Wang Huaibao.
Wang Huaibao was silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "The fight is definitely going to be fought, but it is definitely not now." ”
"Commander, when are we going to wait?"
"Second battalion commander, say it!"
"Yes!" The commander of the second battalion responded and explained to the cadres: "Comrades, don't you forget the maiden home of our fourth regiment, right? ”
"The Japanese army has carried out a sweep of Zhongtiao Mountain this time, and the old regiment commander has always been very concerned about the safety of our four regiments."
"This batch of U.S. weapons and equipment is just the first wave of reinforcements."
"And just a few hours ago, news came from the communications department of our detachment that in order to assist our four regiments, the old regiment commander temporarily transferred an armored corps unit, which is rapidly moving south and moving closer to the Zhongtiao Mountain area."
"Once the armored troops of our detachment arrive, with the advantage of tank combat, we will definitely be able to easily break through the devil's defensive line."
"When the time comes, we can use the breakthrough of the armored troops, plus the four battalion commanders who have already led the main force of the four battalions to break out, we will definitely be able to break through in one fell swoop and directly break the encirclement of the devils."
I see.
The cadres suddenly realized.
"Regiment commander, how are we going to fight before the armored troops of our detachment arrive?"
Wang Huaibao said: "Simple, try to break through from all directions, but remember, only failure, not success."
In addition, we must not fall in love with war, and we must withdraw our troops in time before the Japanese army shows the momentum of taking the initiative to encircle.
We're just going to create a fake situation for the little devils.
What's the situation?
Our four regiments are already anxious like ants on a hot pot, and we can only be forced to seek a chance to break through in embarrassment. ”
"Yes!" The cadres who participated in the meeting responded in unison.
In this way, the Japanese army lost its judgment.
When the armored troops of the detachment arrive, they will definitely be able to catch the little devils off guard......
