301, Yaga! What if there are tanks on the dirt road?
May 1, 1940.
The weather was fine. Suitable for war.
The Eighth Route Army successfully completed the initial encirclement of the Japanese Kumagawa Wing.
The strength of four regiments, each occupying one direction. Surrounded the Japanese Kumagawa Wing in a place called the town of Rahei.
The Japanese did not break through.
Wing Captain Takao Kumagawa didn't think about breaking through at all.
Division Commander Shigetoku Kuroda did not have the word breakthrough in his mind. All he thinks about is destroying the dirt road.
What tanks, none exist.
It's all choreographed by cowardly subordinates. It's all a lie. Falsehood!
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
The Kumagawa Wing continued to attack and advance westward.
They charged with great vigour. I want to break through the obstacle of the dirt road in one go.
In the eyes of the Japanese invaders, no dirt road could stop the attack of a wing of the Japanese army.
Not a single one.
So......
A squadron charged.
Hundreds of Japanese soldiers rushed up with bright bayonets.
Blazing fast.
The impact is extremely strong.
Every Japanese soldier is burying his head and rushing upward. This is known as the Pig Rush Charge.
It seems stupid, but in fact it works very well.
Because the firepower of the previous Tubalu was too weak.
In the face of the Japanese invaders' pig charge, it is difficult to stop.
But this time......
"Bang bang bang!"
"Bang Bang!"
All sorts of gunshots rang out.
The first is a wide variety of rifles. There are mainly water beads and seventy-nine rifles.
"Da Da Da!"
"Da Da Da!"
Then there was light machine gun fire.
There are also two types of light machine guns. One is Czech. One is a large plate of chicken.
Bullets rained down on the Japanese invaders.
The Japanese who rushed to the front kept falling.
"Tubu!"
"Tubu!"
And crazy large-caliber heavy machine guns.
The 12.7 mm warhead whistled past and shattered the Japanese in the back.
Not to knock down.
It's broken.
Where it hits, where it breaks. Basically there are no living ones.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
There was also a large number of mortars pouring shells.
The shells landed in the middle of the Japanese in the back. Blow up the remnants of the Japanese invaders to pieces.
In an instant, a squadron of Japanese soldiers was all knocked to the ground.
A Japanese captain may have been knocked unconscious and stood up in a daze. Outcome......
"Sudden ......"
"Sudden ......"
Immediately targeted by the Deshka heavy machine gun.
And then a string of bullets passed. The captain of the Japanese army disappeared completely.
"Kill ......"
A Japanese soldier raised his head staggeringly.
As a result, a string of bullets flew over. Blow his head out completely. And then...... There is no then.
The battlefield was dead.
There is no longer any Japanese criminals who can still make any moves.
They all died peacefully......
"Yaga ......"
The captain of the Japanese army in the back was stunned.
He couldn't believe the look in his eyes. My mind went blank. I didn't react for a long time.
Amaterasu bless!
How could the firepower of the Dirt Eight Road be so ferocious?
A direct wave of firepower killed a squadron of Japanese criminals? Or is it all broken?
Not even a single one struggling!
Can't figure it out......
How could there be so many large-caliber heavy machine guns on the Dirt Eighth Road?
How can there be so many mortars?
Yaga!
I'm in trouble.
Hurriedly reported to the co-captain Magio Kumagawa.
"Nani?"
Macho Kumagawa was also taken aback.
He didn't expect that Tubalu would be so ferocious.
If someone else had reported it, he probably wouldn't have believed it.
However, this report was made by the captain he trusted the most. It's impossible to lie.
It seems that he may have encountered the main force of the Dirt Eight Road.
There are heavy machine guns. There are mortars. It must be the most elite of the dirt eight roads.
I was overjoyed.
Grabbed the main force of the dirt eight roads. It's always been their dream!
So what are you waiting for?
So the order was given to launch a second wave of attacks.
At the same time, two brigades were dispatched, advancing in a roundabout way from both sides, trying to outflank the Dirt Eight Road.
As a result, the frontal attack had not yet been launched, and the Japanese invaders, who were trying to make a detour on the left and right, were instead attacked by heavy fire.
There are also heavy machine guns!
There are also mortars!
The casualties of the Japanese were equally heavy. One squadron was almost disabled.
This time, Macho Kumagawa saw it very clearly.
In the binoculars, the Japanese soldiers are as fragile as noodles.
The bullets swept by, and all the Japanese soldiers were lying on the ground.
"Yaga!"
Macho Kumagawa immediately realized that something was wrong.
After all, you can be a co-captain. None of them are fools. He immediately realized that he was caught in the encirclement of the dirt road.
The surrounding Tubalu is not only extremely strong in combat, but also extremely large in number.
It is very risky to continue the attack when the situation is uncertain. So the order was immediately changed. Shift to in-place defense.
The Japanese invaders then took Luoping Town as the center and quickly built a defensive position.
At the same time, report to the division commander Shigetoku Kuroda.
"Yaga!"
"Coward!"
Kuroda was furious.
This Kumagawa hunk!
I'm asking you to destroy the dirt eight roads!
It's not for you to stick to the rescue!
Where is the main force of the Dirt Eight Road?
Cry wolf!
Greedy for life and afraid of death!
It is necessary to apologize for seppuku......
"Your Excellency the division commander, the cavalry division has withdrawn." Suddenly, a staff officer came to report.
Kuroda Shigetoku suddenly frowned.
What does Eagle Taka Sen mean? Running away at this time? Don't even say hello?
Hum! Run, run!
You don't need the assistance of a cavalry division at all!
Cavalry divisions are all rubbish! Spend a huge amount of military spending, but what a decent record! Get out of the way before it's too late!
"Don't send it!"
Coldly replied to the staff officer.
The staff officer then gave the order to go down. Say no goodbye.
As a result, Ying Xiaosen's departure was very deserted. There wasn't even a single person to see him off.
However, Takashi Sen didn't care.
After leaving the city, I glanced back.
That's it.
With Kuroda Shigetoku's stubbornness, sooner or later he will bury himself.
The 26th Division is finished.
"Let's go!"
Quickly left with cavalry units.
He didn't want to wade into this troubled water.
Especially if there are tanks on the dirt road.
Use cavalry to storm the tanks of the Dirt Eight Road. Isn't that looking for death? He's not that stupid......
"Isn't there any news from Zuoyun County yet?"
"Nope."
"Yaga! Restore communication with Zuoyun County as soon as possible! ”
"Yes!"
The staff officer nervously agreed.
but in his heart he secretly complained.
Zuoyun County has lost contact for more than ten hours. It is estimated that there is more luck than luck.
It's just that His Excellency the division commander is unwilling to admit it.
"Report!"
Suddenly, Deputy Chief of Staff Hatoyama Nakasa arrived.
A little in a hurry. The pace is a bit rushed. In the eyes of others, it is just a little flustered.
"Yaga!"
"What's the panic?"
Kuroda was furious.
The chief of staff is not there. Only Deputy Chief of Staff Hatoyama Nakasa.
The little Nakasa, in front of the lieutenant general, was of course silent. Easily afraid to speak.
"What's the matter?"
"Kumagawa Wing reports that the Tuhachi Tank ...... found"
"Nani?"
Kuroda Shigetoku suddenly became angry again!
It's tanks again!
It's tanks again!
Didn't you mention that tanks would die?
There are tanks on the dirt eight roads!
There are tanks on the dirt eight roads!
Who told you? The poor ones are the same dirt eight roads as Hanako! How could there be tanks!
Think about it with your pig brains!
You have to lie, and find a serious reason!
Yaga!
It seems that he is not strict in governing the army in peacetime. Give them face too!
At this time, dare to lie about the military situation!
I was about to scold. Suddenly, another staff officer arrived. It's also a hurry.
Kuroda Shigetoku was even more angry.
All of them are like this? All panicked! Is it the dirt eight road that hits the city?
Yaga!
A bunch of cowards!
"What's the matter?"
"Beiping, Beiping Emergency ......"
"Read!"
"The General Staff of the North China Front reminds that there may be tank ...... on the Tuba Road"
"Yaga!"
Kuroda was furious again.
What is possible!
What does the General Staff do for food?
Can you even say something like that?
What is possible?
If you have not yet determined the information, you dare to send it! Can intelligence be ambiguous?
What does Miyano eat?
Think you're an aristocratic sideline, so you dare to talk nonsense?
As the dignified commander of the lieutenant general's division, Kuroda Shigetoku is really unhappy with this Miyano. It is said that Miyano has always insisted on placing the 26th Division in the remote Datong.
There's not even a ghost here. There are only scattered dirt roads. There is no chance to even make meritorious contributions.
Now it is difficult to catch the main force of the Eighth Road, and there are tanks on the left and a tank on the right......
It's clear that you don't want me to make meritorious contributions!
Obviously worried that I would perform too well and steal the limelight from others!
Yaga!
What if there are tanks on the dirt road?
"Call back!"
"Tell them to find out the information first! Lest it be a joke! ”
"Yes!"
The staff officer hurriedly turned around and went.
And then......
The division headquarters was finally quiet.
Finally, no one was making noise.
There is no mention of tanks either......
Kuroda Shigetoku can finally be clean for a while.
However, he didn't know it. Just when he was angry, the battle situation on the front line was taking a sharp turn for the worse.
Because......
The tanks of the dirt eight roads are really coming!
