Not long after Li Yunlong, Chen Feng and Xing Zhiguo returned to the regiment headquarters.

The attacking units of each battalion reported the battle situation to the regimental headquarters, saying that under the cover of the Leopard tank and the Satan tank, the first position of the devil had been taken.

Li Yunlong immediately ordered all battalions to continue the attack, and the automobile battalion must ensure that the ammunition on the front line is sufficient.

Since the main offensive route was along the road, more than 200 vehicles of the new regiment's automobile battalion were constantly sending ammunition, especially artillery shells, to the front line.

Caused the infantry to have shells behind each gun emplacement every time they called for artillery support.

The firepower of a unit is important, but the ability to transport and supply logistics is also a top priority.

Boss Chen had already provided dozens of tons of gasoline before, including napalm, so this time there was no airdrop of gasoline, because it was enough for the time being.

The main battalion of the new regiment, each battalion has 10 companies under its command.

As the companies took turns to fight, under the cover of heavy artillery, Leopard tanks and Satan tanks, they successively conquered the positions of the devils.

Heyuan County.

10th Division Headquarters.

Chief of Staff Yoshiyoshi Asada reported to Moritake Tanabe and Jiro Ishikawa: "In the direction of Anhua County, the new 1st Regiment broke through 4 positions of the Locust Army, in the direction of Heyuan County, the new 1st Regiment broke through 5 positions of the Locust Army, and in the direction of Ping'an County, the new 1st Regiment broke through 4 positions of the Locust Army......"

Listening to Yoshiyoshi Asada's report, Jiro Ishikawa and Moritake Tanabe, two old devils, couldn't help but look at each other.

The Eighth Road did not attack for more than 4 hours, and the two old devils felt that this battle had been stabilized.

Unexpectedly, after the new regiment stopped attacking for more than 4 hours, it was Wang Bang as soon as it struck, and it conquered multiple positions in a row within 3 hours.

One position, representing a pillbox or artillery tower, and even some positions have two pillboxes or artillery towers composed of crossfire positions, but I didn't expect to be broken through 13 positions by the Eighth Route so quickly.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Why has the Eighth Road's ability to attack the fortification become so powerful? Why do pit and anti-slope tactics fail? ”

Jiro Ishikawa asked angrily in his tone.

He knew very well that the firepower of the 10th Division was not as strong as that of the new regiment, and the tunnel and anti-slope tactics were used for the first time, and they did not master the essence, and in addition, in such a short time, the engineer wing had no way to dig the tunnel very deep.

The new regiment was equipped with heavy tanks and 150mm heavy guns, and the firepower of the 10th Division was crushed in all aspects.

The new regiment will be able to take these positions, but it will take a long time, and it will have to pay a huge price for casualties and consume a lot of ammunition.

After the new regiment paid a huge price in casualties, the other four second-line divisions came together, and the five divisions were encircled, and they could eat the new regiment in one bite.

Moritake Tanabe, Ninji Okamura and Jiro Ishikawa are playing such calculations.

But Jiro Ishikawa never expected that the new regiment would crack the tunnel and anticline tactics in such a short time?

If the tunnel and anti-slope tactics were so easy to crack, the 10th Division would have already entered the base of the new regiment.

At this juncture, the people below report that the pit and anti-slope tactics are not working?

Asada Ryoyoshi suddenly reported: "The 8th Brigade and the 33rd Brigade in the base area report that the Eighth Route has used a new weapon!" ”

Moritake Tanabe asked in a deep voice, "What kind of new weapon?" ”

"A fire-breathing tank!" Yoshiyi Asada said, "The Eighth Route New Regiment is equipped with a fire-breathing tank that is specially designed to deal with the pillboxes and turrets defended by the Locust Army. ”

"Even a new regiment of fire-breathing tanks is aimed at the infantry positions to breathe fire."

"Once this kind of flame infantry is touched, it can't be extinguished at all, it is very terrifying, and there is even a phenomenon of locust surrender and collective abandonment of positions on the position!"

"Nani?" Jiro Ishikawa and Moritake Tanabe couldn't help but look at each other, "Spitfire tank? ”

Both old devils knew that there was such a weapon as a Spitfire.

In the original Battle of Nomenkan, the devil was barbecued by the Soviet Union's Spitfire tank, and the devil has been studying this Spitfire tank, but until now, the devil's ordnance experts have not studied anything famous.

Unexpectedly, the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army was equipped with Spitfire tanks?

"Yaga!"

After Ishikawa Jiro was shocked, he couldn't help but curse angrily, and the 10th Division actually appeared with surrendered soldiers and deserters.

It's a shame and can't be tolerated!

Jiro Ishikawa looked at Yoshiyi Asada and said, "Asada-kun, immediately order all wings to organize a battle supervision team, and once you find that the soldiers have left the position without authorization, whether it is the locust army or the locust army, they will all be killed!" ”

"Hey!"

Yoshiyoshi Asada turned and left.

Seeing the chief of staff leave, Jiro Ishikawa said with a gloomy face: "Tanabe-kun, you have to find a way to deal with the heavy tanks and Spitfire tanks of the Eighth Road!" ”

In order to deal with the tanks of the new regiment, devil death squads were organized on each position, and each death squad was wrapped with explosives.

Just to blow up a new regiment of tanks.

The ideal is very full, the reality is very cruel, it is difficult to blow up a new regiment of tanks, even if you fight a squadron of devils, it is difficult to blow up.

Not to mention the tank's on-board machine guns, as well as the infantry to provide cover, even if the devil pretends to be dead, it is difficult to blow up the tank when the tank passes by and the explosives are exhausted.

And the artillery wing of the 10th Division, a total of 36 guns.

The guns were scattered across three roads to defend against the attack of the new regiment, that is, only 12 guns per road.

Even with artillery fire, it is more difficult to hit a tank in action.

If the mountain artillery and field artillery are pushed to the front of the battlefield to aim at the tank, it is not realistic, and the 150-mm heavy artillery of the Eighth Route is not an ornament, and it will first carry out a round of artillery bombardment on the target area.

Tanabe Moritake asked in a deep voice, "Does Ishikawa-kun have a way?" ”

"There's nothing to do for now!"

"That's why I asked you, Tanabe-kun."

Jiro Ishikawa shook his head, his face became more and more gloomy, and a bad feeling suddenly surfaced in his heart.

I ask you, you ask me in turn?

Judging by the speed at which the new regiment conquered the position, the speed at which the engineer wing was digging tunnels was far from enough.

At this time, the new regiment must be accumulating an attack.

Moreover, the engineer wing has not closed its eyes for a day and a night, and has been digging tunnels and building fortifications, and the engineers are very tired.

"Since there is no way!" Ishikawa Jiro looked at Tanabe Moritake silent, and asked in a deep voice, "In my opinion, why don't the 10th Division concentrate all its forces and have a frontal decisive battle with the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army?" ”

"Armageddon?" Moritake Tanabe was suddenly taken aback, "Ishikawa-kun, can the current 10th Division fight a new regiment?" ”

"How do you know if you don't give it a try?"

Although Ishikawa Jiro also knew that the current 10th Division was probably not the opponent of the new regiment.

In the first half of the month, the 10th Division suffered heavy casualties, with casualties accounting for one-third of the combat troops, and the soldiers of the 10th Division were exhausted after continuous operations and repeated attacks.

However, the soldiers of the new regiment often only need to send a small number of troops to resist the attack of the 10th Division at the squadron and brigade level.

Therefore, now the new regiment is fighting the 10th Division at leisure, and whether it is artillery firepower or infantry firepower, the new regiment will comprehensively crush the 10th Division.

How does this work?

However, Ishikawa Jiro was not reconciled, he wanted to wait for the arrival of the 11th Independent Infantry Wing of the 26th Division and have a head-to-head showdown with the new regiment.

"It's not for you and me to decide." Tanabe Moritake said with a solemn expression, "I must ask Commander Okamura!" ”

Jiro Ishikawa nodded: "Then let's ask Commander Okamura first!" ”

……

Big Lonely Town.

The new regimental headquarters.

Before dark, each attacking force captured two or three more positions.

It was a tentative attack before, and after adding the Leopard tanks and Spitfire tanks participating in the attack, even if the devils and puppet troops had the cover of the tunnel, they could not stop the attack of the new regiment.

There are mountain artillery in the distance of the devils, and mortars and infantry artillery in the anti-slope positions, so the casualties of the new regiment are not small.

However, the number of casualties is still not as large as that of the devils and puppet army.

The artillery firepower is extremely strong, and the quality of the artillery is getting higher and higher, and the sharpshooters are fed with shells, which is true.

After listening to the chief of staff's report, Li Yunlong looked satisfied.

At this rate of advancement, it would be possible to capture all the pillboxes and turret positions within three days.

The attack speed of the new regiment is definitely faster than the speed at which the Devil Sapper Wing digs tunnels and fortifications.

Immediately afterwards, Li Yunlong asked Cao Jiang to come to the battalion headquarters and ordered Battalion Commander Cao to lead the 1st Battalion of the 1st Cavalry of the New Regiment to attack and kill the 10th Cavalry Wing of the 10th Division.
