War of Resistance

Chapter 230 Nanjing Breakout Battle ([-])
Hearing the burst of gunfire coming from the front, would the Japanese soldiers at Tongji Gate still not understand what was going on?The head of the No. 13 division headquarters of the Japanese army stationed at Tongji Gate immediately called the wing headquarters.

"What is there, this is Tongji Gate. From the Qiqiao urn in the direction of Tongguang Barracks, a Chinese army of unknown strength has broken through. The second brigade is asking for tactical guidance!" The Japanese Major reported to the phone.

After hearing the report on the other end of the phone, he was silent for a while, and then said: "Mr. Suzuki, listen, I am now ordering all of your troops to dispatch as the commander of the regiment. Be sure to hold on to this Chinese army, and don't let them break through the encirclement." success!"

"Hay!" Major Suzuki responded.

After hanging up the phone, Major Suzuki said to the subordinates next to him: "Give me the order, all attack immediately!"

At this time, the main force of the Penetration Regiment had already passed the Zhonghe Bridge, and even the Second Temporary Battalion in charge of the rear was ready to pass.

Yes, this Japanese army is the No.13 Division of Dizhou Libing, Zhang Tianhai’s old enemy. After the reorganization of Gaotian United, Dizhou Libing led his troops to Nanjing to kill them. After the Jiangyin Fortress suffered heavy losses from the Chinese defenders, he was transferred to the first-line position in Chunhua Town, where the war was relatively smooth. This afternoon, he opened the way in the Guoqi Detachment After that, No.13 Division entered Tongji Gate.

For Major Suzuki, it was not a good job to send out all his troops. The entire No.13 Division suffered heavy losses in combat, and his brigade was no exception. The squad just sent , or a team he specially reserved for mobile use, the reason is that this team has a complete system.

But the captain of the regiment has already issued a combat order, so it doesn't matter if you don't go up, right?

An urgent whistle sounded, and the Japanese officers and soldiers of the Suzuki Battalion immediately gathered together, but judging from the scale of a brigade of more than 100 people, no matter how you look at it, there are only about one-third of the people left in this brigade—— —No way, the house leak happened to be raining all night, and just now, someone killed more than 70 people.

After gathering the troops, Major Suzuki pulled out his command saber and swung it forward vigorously: "Ha Youku, attack!!!"

Unlike the officers and soldiers of the national army, this Japanese army is equipped with motorcycles and armored vehicles. The equipment is not bad, but they seem to have miscalculated. After all, Zhang Tianhai wasn't stupid to that extent - the mechanization of the Japanese army was much higher than that of the national army. If he walked along the main road, it would be impossible to outrun the Japanese army with so many civilians.

So Zhang Tianhai led his troops along a small road beside Niu Shou Mountain, which could pass a car, which tested the driving skills of the officers and soldiers of the chariot company, while the officers and soldiers of the Temporary Third Battalion walked along the road. Marching on both sides, the journey did not delay much.

Regarding the two companies sent by Wu Guangzong, Zhang Tianhai directly used them as a vanguard and reserve team. These were the only two companies in his hands that were truly organized. The secret service company has already been dismantled, and it cannot be regarded as an organized company.

In this bitterly cold night, apart from the roar of tank diesel engines, there was no other sound, and the grass in the mountains was already up to the waist. Coupled with the poor visibility at night, it was easy for someone to accidentally fall down.

But among those who fell, none of them made a sound, because they knew that more noise means more noise and more risk of exposure.

At this time, Zhang Tianhai led the two companies of the [-]th Regiment, led by a local Nanjing soldier, and took the lead in the front of the team. As for the middle and rear sections of the team, he could only rely on Zhou Fangjie's command. .

If the passage to break out in front cannot be opened, and the Japanese army behind will catch up, all the efforts made before will be in vain.

There are not many requirements for this breakout, the only requirements are only three points: fast, accurate, and ruthless.

Be fast, be precise at the breakout location, and be ruthless!

The company commander of the infantry company is called Xiao Peiguang. Ever since he was ordered by the regiment to obey the command of the regimental commander, he has been following the regimental commander Zhang. Only after he noticed the steps of the regimental commander Zhang did he realize that Zhang The leader is not as simple as it seems - walking in the mountains and forests is as flexible as an ape, and the rifle on his back is also covered with canvas. I don't know what kind of rifle it is, just look at the sight It looks a little different from ordinary guns.

Compared to the calmness ahead, the rear was as tense as it pierced the sky.

"Battalion Commander, the Japanese army is chasing us along the main road!" A soldier ran to Zhou Fangjie to report.

"How many people in the enemy army are like this?" Zhou Fangjie stopped and asked.

"I don't know. There is at least one squadron of devils. These Japanese troops came with motorcycles and armored vehicles." The soldier reported that he was in charge of reconnaissance missions when he taught the corps. Moreover, these Japanese troops marched at night. He turned on the headlights and chased the advancing ones. If this was not discovered, it would be too embarrassing for the national army.

"Damn it, these devils haven't finished yet, have they?" Zhou Fangjie squeezed the words through his teeth, "Now that I have a fucking reinforced battalion, why are you afraid of a squadron? Immediately set up an ambush along both sides of the road , I want to give these little Japanese a surprise!"

"Listen, everyone in the Second Battalion. If you have grenades, stay as close as possible to the side of the road. Your target is the Japanese armored vehicle! If you don't have grenades, retreat back and try to knock down half of the devils as soon as the battle starts. The machine gunner should also try to stay as far back as possible to suppress the enemy with firepower!"

Following Zhou Fangjie's order, the officers and soldiers of the Temporary Second Battalion quickly hid along the sides of the road. These officers and soldiers of the Penetration Regiment were originally veterans from various elite units of the Central Army, and they had all been on the battlefield. Naturally not too low.

In less than 2 minutes, the units of the Second Temporary Battalion took cover along both sides of the road. The black muzzles of the guns were aimed at the road in unison, and the officers and soldiers who were still carrying grenades were lying on the side of the road. About twenty meters away on both sides, the screw cap at the end of the grenade had already been opened, and the drawstring had already been pulled out.

In this dark night, this road is full of murderous intent.

The enemy unit responsible for chasing the breakthrough regiment is the 13th Regiment of the No.104 Division, which is the second brigade of the Sendai Regiment. The main force of the team quickly left the Tongji Gate, closely following the pace of the second team.

The commander of the regiment, Takahashi, seems to be calm, but he is not. After all, the No.13 division has suffered a lot in previous battles. Not to mention the fact that they encountered a blow from the Chinese army in the Songhu battlefield, and directly killed two regiment commanders. Let's say that a unit headquarters was taken away, let's say that in the battle to attack Jiangyin Fortress, their losses were also huge.

The troops that broke through from Nanjing are all the elite of the Nationalist Government. Many of them are German armed forces, and they are not weaker than the Chinese troops in the Jiangyin Fortress. How much did they pay for the No.16 Division, the Sixth Division, and the Guoqi Detachment? The price of attacking Nanjing, Takahashi will not know, in short, the price will never be small.

Now the second brigade has only four or five hundred people, and it is quite risky to dare to chase these breakout troops of the national army who don't know how many troops are still there.

The camera then turned to Suzuki Xingichi's second brigade, and they had arrived at the spot where Yunyong Ono's pursuit team was wiped out just now.

These corpses were placed in the middle of the road, arranged neatly.

Seeing that Suzuki Xingyi's face was already flushed with anger, and the veins on his forehead were exposed, he scolded very angrily: "Baga, these Chinese troops are too careless! It's enough to kill the warriors of our empire, and return their blood. The guns have also been taken away, and the remains of the warriors of the empire have suffered such humiliation! Send me an order, everyone, to speed up immediately, and this army cannot be allowed to escape!"

"Hay!" After receiving the commander's order, the Japanese soldiers immediately got on their motorcycles, and the entire pursuit force set off again.
