Chapter 254
Zhou Hao stood on the top floor of the division headquarters, holding a telescope to look into the distance. Unfortunately, he was too far away and could only vaguely see some rising smoke. He couldn't help but ask for advice with some envy:
"Master, you can't be more favorable than the other! When is it our armored tank regiment turn to practice, brothers have already been suffocated!"
Yang Fan waved his hand and smiled, "Don't worry, the show has just begun. When the Japanese fight are not interested, we will go out and have fun with them!"
Chen Ergou, who was standing beside him, laughed and said, "Teacher seat, if you raise troops for a thousand days, we will be able to use troops for a while, and our brothers in the special war brigade are also eager to see you!
These Japanese devils dare to attack our defense line. Isn’t this the birthday boy hanging himself and thinking that he has a long life!
If the opportunity is ripe, don’t forget our brothers in the Special War Brigade. We have to drink some soup when others eat meat!"
Although the two most elite Japanese divisions of the A-type divisions joined forces to attack, with great momentum as if they were under Mount Tai, the friends around Yang Fan were not afraid or uneasy. Instead, they were worried that they would not have the turn to eat meat and that they would be snatched away by their brothers!
At present, only the Chinese Tiger Army led by Yang Fan is so fierce!
Yang Fan smiled and said, "Don't worry, there will be bread and milk! The Japanese are in full swing now, so there is no need to fight with them in field. We can take advantage of their arrogance and eagerness to slowly consume the Japanese's vitality. Accumulate small victories to make a big victory!"
In the early days of the War of Resistance Against Japan, Japan's war potential was great. Even if it was destroyed, 10 elite divisions could be recruited in China soon.
On the contrary, Yang Fan finally pulled up a Tiger Army like an arm to use his fingers. If it consumed too much in a short period of time, it would damage the muscles and bones, and it would be difficult to quickly recover the vitality!
After receiving a call for help from Highland No. 5, Xie Kangquan picked up the walkie-talkie and ordered:
"Li Guan, immediately lead a company brother to support the No. 5 Highland! Remember, you must firmly nail the position and never put a Japanese in it!"
A powerful and powerful word came from the other end of the intercom: "Please rest assured that the team is in the position, and the person is in the position and the position is in the position!"
Immediately afterwards, Li Guan, who had been waiting for a long time, led his company to quickly advance towards Highland No. 5, 3 kilometers away.
Highland No. 5 is a small hill at the entrance of Wangjiazhuang Village, on which a large steel and concrete bunker and a steel and cement fortification line are built.
Not only are there 10 heavy machine guns, 5 anti-aircraft machine guns, 5 70mm war defense cannons installed on the high ground, but also 3 105mm howitzers, which are full of heavy firepower!
There was originally a reinforced company defender in the Highland No. 5, but after a morning of fierce fighting, 83 people had been killed, only more than 70 people were left to fight, and more than 30 people were carried off the line of fire due to serious injuries!
However, the sacrifice of these 83 people repelled more than 10 attacks of the Japanese army, killing more than 160 Japanese soldiers and destroying 6 Japanese light tanks, making a small slope become an insurmountable death forbidden area for the Japanese army!
There are four positions like the No. 5 Heights in Wangjiazhuang Village, each of which is a permanent fortification built according to the terrain. Not only does it have super defensive power and heavy firepower, but it also has abundant supplies. Even if you are besieged for ten days and half a month, you will be stress-free!
In addition to these five outer positions, Wangjiazhuang Village has built a large number of fortifications and bunkers, which have strong heavy firepower and air defense firepower. The commanding heights and tunnels in various parts of the village are connected to each other!
Because he had been through life and death with Yang Fan and others, Xie Kangquan naturally received key care after arriving in Gaomi County. Not only did he receive comprehensive training, he has now become a team leader!
The Wangjiazhuang Village where Xie Kangquan was stationed has become the key offensive direction of the Japanese Guoqi Detachment, from just dawn to now at half past 11:30 noon!
The Japanese army successively used tank aircraft cannons to bomb fire, but in the face of carefully constructed fortifications, the firepower crushing that the Japanese army had tried and tested did not play much role. Instead, Xie Kang destroyed all 6 tanks and several artillery pieces!
"Baga! This is completely a military fortress armed to the teeth! The artillery and heavy firepower of the Chinese army opposite are not inferior to us!
If you continue to attack like this, it will not work at all. The casualties are too great! Immediately send a telegram to the brigade commander to report on the battle situation!"
The 11th Regiment Captain Yuichi No, stood on a slope. He could clearly see five large steel and concrete bunkers and fortification lines from the telescope, and even saw the black gun barrels spewing out flames from time to time!
According to the combat opportunities set by the Second Army Command, all offensive troops need to be steadily and gradually advance. Yuichi Nagano once suffered a great loss at Yang Fan's hands, so he naturally did not dare to make a reckless move forward!
Yuichi Nagano used the three-axe offensive tactics that the Japanese army had used to, first bombard the fire, then pulled out the tanks and infantry to fight together, then knocked out the opponent's heavy firepower with a mortar and grenade launcher and then charged the infantry!
However, these once tried and tested tactics have become useless in the face of reinforced concrete fortifications armed with heavy firepower to defend against teeth!
If the attackers were not all well-trained old Japanese, fearless and accurate shooting skills, these carefully built defensive bunker fortification lines would not have suffered many casualties!
But in fact, after one morning of bloody battle, Xie Kangquan's fourth brigade alone killed 145 soldiers and killed more than 340 Japanese soldiers!
The enemy-wealth loss ratios in many positions such as Majiazhuang, Jiaoxian, Anqiu County were almost the same. The Japanese attack was very sharp, but did not rashly launch a general attack on the whole line. It was in the tentative offensive stage all morning!
The battle was not stopped until five o'clock in the afternoon. On the first day of the attack, the Japanese army did not make any progress, but instead paid more than 1,500 lives!
The defensive side, Huaxia Tiger Army, suffered 457 deaths, 241 seriously injured, and more than 600 minor injuries!
"This wave is not a loss! It seems that my hard work has not been wasted. The brothers of the Tiger Army can stand the test!"
It was not until the Japanese devil Mingjin withdrew his troops and suspended the attack that Yang Fan breathed a sigh of relief. Although 457 people were killed on the first day, the casualties of 1:3 were quite amazing!
You should know that the Japanese army launched a fierce attack on all positions at the same time, fighting for more than 10 hours. If it were other troops, it would be almost impossible not to kill two or three thousand people!
Pingdu, Japan's 2nd Army Command!
"Okay, everyone, calm down. Now we are not going to hold anyone accountable, but to summarize the battle well! The next battle can no longer be like today!"
Commander Nishio Shozuo patted the table lightly and stared at the generals with a bad look. Although he knew that this hard bone was not easy to chew, his performance on the first day still made him feel extremely unhappy!
Chapter completed!
