Chapter 333, Defense of the Jiaodong Peninsula 12.
"Fire!" Aiming the barrel of the cannon at a battle defense gun placed in a small western-style building, Jiang Qiang suddenly pressed the fire control switch, and a loud bang directly blew the devil battle defense gun in the small western-style building in front of him into pieces! A flamethrower, under the cover of his comrades, braved his body to the vicinity of a brick and wood shop, where several shooting holes were spewing flames out of the brick wall of the house! "Let me do it first!"
The bazooka man who was carrying the Bazooka anti-tank bazooka immediately behind him fired a shot at the brick wall in front of him with a loud shout! Boom, there was an explosion and rubble flew sideways, and a big hole appeared in the wall! "Dog's day, grandpa also let you taste the taste of being barbecued!"
The flamethrower quickly lowered the flamethrower's nozzle into the large hole in the wall, and then pressed the switch without hesitation! I saw a fire dragon born out of the sky, and the fiery flame stream up to thousands of degrees was pervasive and omnipresent, crackling and exploding like fried beans!
The whole shop was in a sea of hellfire in an instant! Yes! Yes! Yes! A terrible and miserable howl came out of the house, and the more than ten little devils hiding inside suddenly turned into burning people, and they only struggled senselessly for a few seconds before they pounced and died!
However, the fire on them did not go out, but burned more and more, and soon burned these evil invaders to ashes! "Little devils, you also have today! Father, mother, little brother, little sister, today I will definitely kill a few more little devils to avenge your hatred! Brothers, keep going! Kill them all, leave not a single one! Su Xu, the squad leader of the special operations brigade, had red eyes and tears in his eyes, and the little devil's desperate howl not only did not make him feel any pity, but became extremely excited and excited!
Su Xu was originally a rich young master in Jinan Mansion, and as early as last year, he came to Zhaoyuan County, Jiaodong to join the army, and after extremely strict screening and training, he finally became a qualified elite of the special operations brigade! Just when Su Xu wanted to take his family to Zhaoyuan to take root, he received the unfortunate news, his family in Jinan Mansion was slaughtered by the little devils, and even the little sister who was not yet an adult was ruined to death by the brutal Japanese army! From that moment on, Su Xu made a poisonous oath to fight with the Japanese devils, and even if he shed the last drop of blood, he would drive out the little devils!
In fact, there are not a few officers and soldiers like Su Xu who have hatred for the country and family, since the Japanese invasion of China, the burning, killing, and plundering have shown the most despicable side of human nature, I don't know how many Chinese people have been slaughtered, and how many people have been ruined and scattered! The fierce battle continued, relying on the strong cover and powerful firepower of the heavy tanks, the infantry fire assault team kept breaking through the walls and breaking the house, annihilating and killing the Japanese devils hiding inside one by one!
The county seat of Juxian County has suffered unprecedented damage, and houses and houses have been shattered and burned to ashes by raging fires! Every time the Jiaodong Military Region of the Asian People's Liberation Army moves forward, it means that there is an extra piece of ruins! There is no way, you have to break through the walls and break the house like this in street fighting, and break the obstacles little by little! If you stupidly advance along the streets and alleys, the ferocious devils and the ubiquitous side-fire will not only make it difficult for the Asian Liberation Army to move an inch, but also pay an unbearable price of casualties!
Therefore, even if it will seriously consume weapons and ammunition if it is broken through the wall and the house, Jiang Qiang is not distressed at all, and unswervingly adopts the supremacy of firepower, because ammunition consumption is not worth mentioning in the face of fresh human life! Fortunately, a few months ago, Jiang Qiang consciously gathered the population around the defense area, and more than half of the residents of Ju County moved their families to the prosperous and stable Jiao County, Zhucheng County, Gaomi and other places! In addition, a few days ago, more than half of the people in the city fled to Linyi and Xuzhou, and when the devils captured Ju County, Ju County was already ten rooms and nine empty, and there were not many people left!
And after the devils occupied Ju County, they were extremely brutal and created many massacres, except for some traitors who surrendered and betrayed the country, there were almost no people in the city! Otherwise, such a devastating street fight would be a bit difficult to handle! In the other three directions, due to the addition of the tank regiment, the attack instantly became extremely sharp, and the positions outside the devil city were constantly smashed and compressed, and the city gate was broken in less than half an hour!
However, since the devils have made up their minds to fight street battles with the Jiaodong Military Region of the Asian People's Liberation Army, and the main force of the devils has withdrawn to the city to seize the commanding heights to build side-firing firepower, the real test of the officers and men of the Fourth Brigade in these three directions has just begun! Shandong Pingdu Japanese Second Army Headquarters!
The huge conference room was full of high-ranking generals and staff officers, but everyone's faces were extremely solemn, and the entire conference room was silent at this time, as silent as death! "Yaga!" After a long time, Nishio Shouzao roared extremely unwillingly, and said in a frenzy: "Is that Jiang Qiang a demon released from hell?" How could the Imperial Japanese Army suddenly be defeated? ”
Nishio Shouzo was crying blood in his heart, the situation was still very good during the day yesterday, although the military operation did not achieve the expected results, but it finally captured a large area of Jiaoxian outlying positions, and also caused a lot of casualties to the defenders of Jiaoxian! But one night passed, everything changed, not only the occupied Jiaoxian peripheral positions were lost, a brigade of Japanese troops stationed in the position was completely annihilated, and even the main force of the brigade garrison 5 kilometers away from the position was attacked by poison gas bombs and bombs at night, and the casualties were extremely heavy! This morning, the Asian People's Liberation Army even mobilized a large number of tanks, helicopters and infantry to launch an encirclement and annihilation battle against Juxian!
What shocked Nishio Shouzao the most was that the Jiaodong Military Region of the Asian People's Liberation Army actually had a fighter group, although there were only 5 in total, but the combat effectiveness was very strong, and the bomber group supporting Juxian was all over the ground! Suzuki, chief of staff of the Second Army, sighed and said, "Your Excellency, it seems that we still don't know enough about this opponent, they are far stronger than we expected!" We must immediately adjust our strategy and tactics, otherwise we will not eat the Chinese army one bite at a time, but will be consumed by them little by little! ”
"Hello! What the Chief of Staff said is extremely true! Ryosuke Isoya hurriedly nodded in agreement, and said in a sad tone: "The 21st Brigade of our division sent troops to Juxian to outflank the rear, originally wanting to transfer the Huaxia army out of the strong defense area and lure them to fight a tough battle!"
Then we will use the powerful air force of the Japanese Empire to carry out carpet bombing, and at the same time, our department will quickly support the anti-encirclement and annihilation operation! However, the final result was that the defensive positions carefully constructed by the 21st Brigade could not withstand the strong attack of the Chinese army at all, and our Imperial Japanese Air Force also lost its absolute air supremacy, and the reinforcements we sent were strongly blocked by the Chinese army! All of our strategies and tactics are understood by our opponents and effectively targeted!
The 21st Brigade now had to rely on the houses in the city to fight street battles with the Chinese army, but the Chinese army had tanks, bazookas, flamethrowers, and well-trained and well-armed infantry, and they simply couldn't hold out for long! Our opponents are so powerful that even if we hide in strong fortifications, it won't help! "The more Ryosuke Isoya talks, the more desperate he becomes, it is the first time he has encountered such a powerful and difficult opponent in the army for more than 20 years, and there are no flaws and shortcomings at all!
"Yaga, Isogu-kun, are you so frightened by the Huaxia pig in front of you?" Hearing Isoya Ryosuke's desperation, Nishio Shouzo suddenly became angry, even though he knew that what Isoya Ryosuke said was the truth. "Your Excellency, Commander, please calm your anger!" Xiao Shimano finally spoke up, and said in a heavy tone: "The opponent is indeed far stronger than we expected, we must re-evaluate the opponent and make corresponding strategic and tactical adjustments!"
This is Nojima Nakasa sent by the General Staff Headquarters, who once studied at the Military Non-commissioned Officer Academy in Berlin, Germany, and has a deep knowledge of street combat special operations! And I have fought with Jiang Qiang many times, let's listen to his opinions first! "General Kojima has a good reputation!"
After getting the nod of Nishio Shouzo's approval, Nojima Rikuto said with a smile on his face: "Actually, I'm just a defeated subordinate, and I have fought three times before and after, and each time it ended in a fiasco!" Speaking of which, the hearts of the people of Nojima are full of sorrow, they have met Jiang Qiang since their debut, but they have never taken any advantage in every fight, not to mention, they always lose their troops and will be defeated!
The word Jiang Qiang has become the demon of the people of Nojima, fortunately, he was sent to the front line of the Second Army this time, and the main purpose was not to participate in the war to eliminate the Jiaodong Military Region of the Asian Liberation Army, but for another purpose! Otherwise, the people of Nojima will have to go crazy! "Victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, and Nojima Nakasa doesn't need to blame himself!"
Xiao Shimano waved his hand and relieved Nojima Luren: "Failure is not terrible, as long as we can maintain high morale and gain experience and increase our ability from it!" "Shuffle!"
Nishio Shouzo nodded and said: "There is an old saying in Huaxia, the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, and if you have any good suggestions and opinions, please say it!" "Hello!"
Where is there any cure for the people of Nojima, but at this time, they can only bite the bullet and say: "According to my combat experience and relevant intelligence materials, our opponent has extraordinary strategic vision and tactical means, and has extremely powerful logistics support, maybe there is also a complete military production system!" In the face of such a strong enemy, there are usually only two means, one is to blockade and besiege for a long time, so that he will lose foreign aid and supplies, and slowly consume him! The other is to concentrate superior forces and eliminate him at all costs with high-intensity and continuous wheel warfare! ”
Nishio Shouzo glanced at Nojima Rikuto and asked quietly, "Nojima Nakasa, according to your judgment, if we attack at all costs, how much time will it take to sacrifice how many people to achieve our goal?" "This!"
Nojima Luren showed a look of embarrassment, and after a long silence, he said: "According to the current intelligence inference, we need at least a month of high-intensity continuous attrition operations, and at least 100,000 lives to achieve our goal!" "Yaga! A month? 100,000 lives? ”
Nishio Shouzo's face collapsed suddenly, doesn't this mean that the Fifth Division and the Tenth Division alone can only capture a small half of the defense area of the Jiaodong Military Region of the Asian People's Liberation Army? It's a slap in the face! Because a week ago, Nishio Shouzo and others thought that gathering a whole two A divisions to besiege a local Chinese armed force was completely like killing chickens with a knife! "Hello!"
Nojima Rito paused: "And this is only the most optimistic calculation!" So, I suggest that we take siege measures until the base camp has made up its mind and gathered enough strength! In addition, I have come here this time with a special mission, and if I can achieve my goal, maybe our great Japanese Empire will be a blessing in disguise! "Nani?" "Can Nojima Nakasa tell me directly?"
Nishio Shouzo and the other old devils were suddenly very confused, and looked at Nojima Rikuto with a puzzled face, completely unable to understand what this "blessing in disguise" meant! Juxian County! After more than 4 hours of arduous street fighting, the Asian People's Liberation Army paid more than 500 lives and advanced to the core position of the 21st Brigade Headquarters!
In addition, 3 tanks of the tank regiment were blown up, and 4 tank tracks were blown up! The core position of the devil includes two reinforced concrete buildings of the Juxian County Government and the Bank of Communications, and the devil has built a large number of heavy firepower and cross-fire networks! The remnants of less than 1,000 soldiers fought for their lives, knowing that this was their last barrier and hope for survival, and fighting for every inch of land with the attacking Chinese officers and soldiers, and desperately blocking them by all means! In a hurry, it was difficult for Jiang Qiang and the others to completely gnaw off the last hard bone!
The entire county seat of Juxian County has completely turned into a ruin, the city is filled with thick smoke and gunsmoke, countless houses have been reduced to ashes in the flames, and they have become ruins in the explosion! "Order the troops to rest on the spot for half an hour, and then take it in one go after they have eaten and drunk enough!" People are iron and steel, and if they don't eat a meal, they will be hungry and panic, not to mention the fierce battle for a whole morning, even Jiang someone began to be hungry, and his physical strength and mental concentration have greatly declined!
Unable to eat hot tofu in a hurry, Jiang Qiang could only order a pause in the attack and take a breath before speaking! The Jiaodong Military Region of the Asian People's Liberation Army stopped the offensive, and the devil defenders who were cowering in the core position could finally breathe a sigh of relief. "Warriors of the Empire, the time has come to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor!" Taking advantage of this gap, Tajima Eijiro summoned the captain and above officers to the headquarters for a meeting, and said in an extremely heavy tone:
"Our reinforcements were blocked by the Huaxia army in Yishui County, and we are now a lone army, with no way out! The enemy on the other side will not give us a way out, so we can only fight to the death to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, and let the enemy pay an unbearable price of casualties! ...... "The battle has been fought so far, even a fool can know what the situation is, Tajima Eijiro knows very well that the last moment is coming, even if the reinforcements are desperate to come to the rescue, they can only be far away and can't quench their thirst!"
"His Majesty the Emperor is onboard!" "The Great Japanese Imperial Army is onboard!"
A group of devil officers roared with hideous faces, these Japanese devils who have been poisoned by militarism will never have the word surrender in the dictionary! Therefore, there will be no "the sound of the bird dying is also sad, and the word of the person dying is also good", but it is completely crazy, and he has made up his mind to burn the jade with the Chinese army! "Chief of Staff, leave the next battle to our Fourth Brigade! You've been on the charge all morning, it's time to rest! ”
Wu Kexiang was nibbling on beef jerky, and persuaded with a smile, Jiang Qiang rushed in front all morning, and he was worried all morning! Jiang Qiang exhaled lightly and said, "Okay, the next battle will be under your full command!" Be sure to wipe out all the little devils cleanly! "Because today is the first real frontal battle, Jiang Qiang directly overtook the command of the battle!
But now there is no suspense about the outcome of the battle, and there is no need for Jiang Qiang to eat the last piece of meat, after all, as the team gradually grows, there will be more generals and handsome talents who are in charge of their own affairs! "Please rest assured, the task is guaranteed!"
Wu Kexiang saluted very excitedly, he could finally let go of his hands and feet and command the battle independently, even if it was just a small-scale annihilation battle! "Report to the Chief of Staff! Zhang Zizhong's Department of the 59th Army of the Fifth War Zone called! "At that moment, the intelligence officer rushed to deliver a telegram!" They're pretty fast! ”
Jiang Qiang took the telegram and swept it away, it turned out that Zhang Zizhong led his troops to follow Gu Liangmin to arrive in today's Yishui County, and there will be 10 hours to reach Ju County at most! Gu Liangmin Department set off from Yutai County, and traveled more than 420 miles in more than two days to arrive in Ju County, I have to say that this speed is really okay!
Because they all walk on their feet, according to a normal person's 5-8 kilometers per hour, take an intermediate speed of 6 kilometers per hour, which means that they have to walk for seventeen or eighteen hours a day to do it! As for Zhang Zizhong, who was ordered by the Fifth Theater Commander's Headquarters to lead his troops to rush to the aid and annihilate the enemy, Jiang Qiang could only smile and know what he meant! Zhang Zizhong's 59th Army is stationed in Teng County, which is more than 140 kilometers away from Ju County, and even if it continues to march forcibly, it will take 15 or 6 hours to walk!
The nearest Pang Bingxun department is only 50 kilometers away from Ju County, and it can be reached in five or six hours at most! The Fifth War Zone sent Zhang Zizhong to reinforce him, obviously showing himself in a posture! "Call back now! Our unit has already compressed the Japanese army in Juxian County in the center of the city, so that they don't have to rush too much! Our department will send a receiving force to meet it! ”
Jiang Qiang also knew that he had offended people by "seeing death and not saving him" a few days ago, and he also knew that this was Chief Li throwing an olive branch to himself, which can only be seen through but not broken! "Brothers! The little devils invaded our country's land and killed our compatriots, plundered our resources, and enslaved our people, and their ultimate goal was to make our Chinese nation extinct and destroy the country! These demons are not worthy of being human at all, they are not worthy of living in this world at all! I ordered the tank regiments and artillery units to immediately launch artillery bombardment, and the first and second regiments were ready for battle......"
Half an hour passed quickly, and the spirit of the officers and men of the Fourth Brigade who had eaten and drunk gradually returned to normal, and then Wu Kexiang ordered the troops to launch the final general attack with a wave of his hand! After the order was issued, nearly 100 artillery pieces of various calibers of the 21 Tank let out an earth-shattering roar, and the county government building, the Bank of Communications building, and various peripheral positions where the devils were entrenched instantly exploded into brilliant fireworks!
The earth trembled, the reinforced concrete trembled violently, the building debris fell like rain, and large holes appeared in the solid exterior walls! The two reinforced concrete buildings became full of holes, gunsmoke and dust rose to fill the air, and a huge area instantly turned into a gray world! Under the carpet bombardment of tanks and artillery at all costs, the little devils' positions were blown to pieces, and I don't know how many devils were directly killed and turned into a mess of meat! "Brothers, rush!" "None of them are left! Kill! ”
The fierce shelling lasted for 15 minutes, and as soon as the artillery fire stopped, the officers and men of the Fourth Brigade, who had been holding back their anger for a long time, rushed out with a tsunami. Assault rifles, assault rifles, rocket launchers, flamethrowers, grenades and other weapons in the hands of the officers and soldiers began to show their might! "Yaga! Resist! "Shoot! Tao times change! ”
The surviving devil defenders in the shelling hurriedly began to organize a counterattack, and hundreds of black hole barrels appeared in an instant from the barricades, bunkers, ruins and buildings on the ground, as well as buildings with almost only frames! Seeing that the little devil's position was still full of firepower, and the attacking troops still suffered a lot of casualties, Jiang Qiang stood in the rear and frowned, feeling very uncomfortable!
However, there is no way to do this, when facing the enemy army holding the fortified city, if you do not use nuclear bombs, super bombs, chemical weapons and other weapons of mass destruction, you will not be able to quickly crush and destroy the stubborn enemy! Although the Pyro is powerful, it has a limited range and is slow to move, and it is difficult to get close to the target and spray before it has an absolute overwhelming advantage! If you rush to send it, you will be taken care of by the devil and turned into a burning bomb, hurting your own people! Therefore, everything has to be piled up by human lives to wipe out the last hundreds of remnants of the Japanese army! The fierce and brutal battle lasted for an hour and a half, and finally ended at 3:05 p.m.!
Major General Eijiro Tajima of the 33rd Brigade of the Japanese Army committed suicide by seppuku, and the 10th Wing of the 10th Wing of Akashiba Yaezo Osa, the 63rd Wing of Fukuei Shinhei Daisa, as well as the staff officers and intelligence officers of the brigade headquarters and other non-combatants were killed in the stubborn resistance!
Based on the results of the day, this time he took the initiative to encircle and annihilate the Japanese army in Juxian County, annihilating 6,332 Japanese troops, and the Jiaodong Military Region lost a total of 1,147 people, 424 seriously wounded, and lost 8 tanks, 4 helicopters, and 41 artillery pieces! This battle was the final strategic goal, annihilating all the Japanese troops entrenched in the rear, cutting off the troubles, and clearing the obstacles for the Gu Liangmin Department!
However, I have to say that this battle was fought very fiercely, and more than 1,500 casualties were lost, which is equivalent to an ordinary reinforced regiment being wiped out! The loss of weapons and ammunition is also quite serious, "Woo woo, we have finally won!" ”
It wasn't until all the devils were eliminated that Xia Yu cried loudly, originally thinking that the Jiaodong Group Army was strong and strong, with extremely advanced aircraft and tanks, and this battle should be to annihilate the Japanese invaders! However, the tragedy of today's battle is beyond imagination, from the official start of the battle, a piece of fresh life is constantly disappearing and withering in front of you! Xia Yu had already seen tears streaming down his face, but in order not to affect the battle, Xia Yu could only grit his teeth to prevent himself from crying, and kept pressing the shutter to record every moment of life and death he saw.
"yes, it was a terrible fight!" Wang Hui stretched out her hand and rubbed her eyes, only at this time did she deeply understand why Jiang Qiang had been standing still before, and she also understood why the Japanese devils had been hit hard by Jiang Qiang many times! It turns out that no matter how sophisticated and powerful the weapons are, in the face of the fierce battle to the death, it is difficult to fully exert the advantages of weapons and equipment, and even if it is powerful, it will have to pay an unbearable huge price of casualties!
"Order the troops to clean up the battlefield immediately! The troops quickly returned to their stations! This place is not to stay for long! It's time for us to go home! "The entire county seat of Juxian County has completely become a ruin, and it is difficult to rebuild and repair in a short period of time, and there is no need to garrison it! The most important thing for Jiang Qiang now is to go home and lick his wounds and continue to develop obscenely, the casualties of the Jiaodong Group Army have exceeded more than 6,000 people these days, and it is really an unbearable price!
As for the consumption of weapons and equipment, not to mention the consumption of ammunition, if he continues to fight like this for ten days and half a month, then Jiang Qiang will really have to smash the pot and sell iron, and use silver dollars, gold bars and other reserve funds! "Chief of Staff! Can we write a feature story when we get back? ”
At this time, Xia Yu and Wang Hui walked to Jiang Qiang's side and looked at Jiang Qiang with a wistful expression, they had been shocked too much in the past two days! At this moment, they are eager to use the pen and paper in their hands to tell every Chinese people about the heroism and great sacrifice of the soldiers of the Asian People's Liberation Army, so that they can go down in history and be admired and remembered by future generations forever!
