distance!
"Good job, extra meal for the artillery platoon tonight!" Watching the gunpowder smoke rise from the binoculars, and the figures of the Japanese army were submerged in the smoke, Wang Xiaoqiang was extremely satisfied, waved his hand, and said, "Why don't you say that today's trip is not in vain? A few shots from Teliang's devils, let's go, retreat first!"
"Commander, are we not going to fight devils here today?" A captain and company commander rubbed his head, quite puzzled.
After all, the two infantry companies plus a mortar platoon took a lot of effort to get around, and it came back in vain. I'm sorry for the sweat!
"Stupid or not, we have stabbed the devils in the eye, and they have no choice but to fight us! Let me ask you, if they don't spend one thousand, they will come for five hundred. You, Company Commander Hu, can't stop you." Wang Xiaoqiang stared.
"Withdraw!" The captain and company commander was a bachelor, he acted immediately after hearing what his regiment commander said.
The infantrymen helped the artillerymen lift their mortars and ran away in a flash.
In less than half an hour, at least two infantry squadrons and an infantry artillery squadron approached aggressively.
If the 300 people brought by Commander Wang were really to be blocked in this mountain, I am afraid that even if the entire army is not wiped out, they will suffer heavy losses.
Head Wang Datuan, who hit two shots first, didn't know it. His six shells changed the direction of the entire battlefield and directly seriously injured Yamashita, the supreme commander of the Second Mixed Brigade.
That's right, when Yota Yoshito pounced on Yamashita, who was blown away by the cup, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his very wise and profound brigade commander was not dead, but still alive.
However, it is actually one step away from death.
Because the shell exploded about 10 meters away from the mountain, the air wave formed only briefly knocked the mountain away, and did not cause fatal damage. The real fatal injury was a piece of shrapnel.
The sharp shrapnel cut a 20cm-long gash in Yamashita's belly. It goes without saying how deep it is, as long as his intestines are exposed.
The color of the intestines is really rich, especially after a part of the intestines is covered with a lot of dust.
A group of panicked Japanese soldiers rushed over and carried their commander into a temporary medical center not far away. The military doctor could only wash the wound with alcohol and did a simple treatment with trembling, and did not even dare to sew it up completely.
The military doctor knew very well that he, the brigade commander, was probably running out of time. It was not because of blood loss or the size and depth of the wound, but the wound was polluted, and the probability of bacterial infection was as high as 90.00%.
Even in the best hospital on this island, the mortality rate of this disease is as high as 80.00%, let alone in the wild.
Yamashita was also a tough guy. After he survived the wound treatment stage without anesthetics, he immediately called Mr. Yoshita Yoshita and Yoshio Yoshio Raigu who were waiting outside the house into the house.
The time was only 3 minutes, and no one knew what Yamashita had confessed to the Zhongzuo and the Shaozuo, only that the faces of the Zhongzuo and the Shaozuo were not very good-looking.
When Yota Yoonto announced the Yamabuta military order and ordered Yoshio Yoshio Yoshio to take over the command of the brigade, the Japanese officers present somewhat understood why Yota Yoono's face was so ugly.
According to the internal unwritten regulations of the Japanese army, the command power is basically based on the rank. In the ordinary infantry brigade, the brigade commander is a major general, the chief of staff is a lieutenant commander, and the two infantry regiment captains are both senior commanders. The brigade commander died because of the battle. When wounded pass command, one of the two infantry regiment captains is usually given.
But in the Second Mixed Brigade, because there is no infantry regiment organization, it is basically brigade-level organization, and the entire brigade does not have a senior officer. Captain, no matter according to military rank or position, Yota Yota should take over as the commander, but Yota Yoshitani was given to Yoshio Raigu without thinking. It's strange that Yota Yota, the lieutenant chief of staff, has a good face.
It's just that Yoshio Laigu, Major Yoshio, has become the supreme commander of the entire brigade in one step, so why does his face look as ugly as if he ate a piece of shit?
However, thinking about the current situation of the brigade group, almost besieged from all sides, it is understandable that Yoshio Lai Gu's face is not good.
Although his face was ugly, Yoshio Laigu still carried out his own mission and issued military orders one by one in an orderly manner. He only bowed his head to Yin Fujiyang Taiyi with a bitter face when everyone left the new temporary headquarters: " Your Excellency, Brigade Commander's safety depends entirely on you, Chief of Staff, Yoshio Lai Gu will live up to your brigade commander's entrustment."
"Mr. Lai Gu, take care!" Yin Teng Yangtai nodded with a stiff face.
If possible, he is actually willing to exchange with the man in front of him.
But perhaps, the army major in front of him also thought so.
The reason is actually very simple. Before Yamashita entered the coma, he gave the command to Yoshio Laigu, which was to ask Yoshio Laigu to lead the remnants to stand by and wait for help. By now, almost all the senior officers of the brigade knew that it was true to stand by. But waiting for help may be just a beautiful dream.
However, Yota Yin Teng, who did not have command authority, had a more important task, responsible for directing the squadron directly under the brigade headquarters to protect the retreat of the brigade headquarters.
The reason on the surface is of course that the brigade has a military flag bestowed by His Majesty the Emperor, and must not fall into the enemy's hands, but in fact it is the severely injured Yamashita who wants to run away.
If he hadn't been injured, the intelligent warrior Yamashita might still be able to face the end of the battle calmly, but people are so strange. When they are far away from death, they are not particularly afraid of death, but as they approach death, they become more and more afraid die.
Seeing the horrified eyes of the military doctor looking at his wound, Yamashita aroused an extremely strong desire to survive at that moment. In order to ensure that he could live well after entering a coma, Yamashita chose Yota Yoshitō, the chief of staff, as the chief of staff. His own "guard captain", but his confidant Yoshio Lai Gu became the brigade commander who replaced him.
There are also Yamamoto's considerations in this. As long as Yota Yin Teng wants to live, he must take him, the brigade leader, out of this mountain, otherwise he will become a fugitive. After all, under his order, this Oral military orders were not written into the battle report.
As his confidant general, Yoshio Lai Gu will definitely carry out his military order firmly, lead all the remaining remnants to stand to the end, attract the main force of the Chinese, and create a foundation for the survival of more than 200 imperial officers and soldiers who fled into the deep mountains.
To put it bluntly, this is an abandoned pawn to protect the car. If the brigade leader and the brigade chief of staff are not dead, the second mixed brigade will only be called severely damaged, not surrounded and wiped out, and the establishment will be cancelled.
It's just that Yoshio Yoshio, who is doomed to die, and Yota Yoshita, who has a chance to survive, are in pain, and neither of them is happy.
Yin Tengyang knew too well that if he broke into the deep mountains like this, he would be intercepted and hunted down by the Chinese army. Even if he could survive, the brigade's chief of staff would be responsible for the brigade's defeat. .
Not only would he personally go to court-martial, but even his family would be implicated. Instead, he was destined to die heroically like Yoshio Raigu. Not only would the empire not blame him, but he would posthumously award him a military rank.
Unless, he can also open a big hole in his belly like Yamashita who has been seriously injured and unconscious.
It is a good excuse to be seriously injured and unconscious due to fierce fighting with the Chinese.
If Yoshio Lai Gu knew what this man was thinking, he might spit on the face of the chief of staff of the lieutenant officer: "It's better to live than to die, no, let's change!"
Nodding to each other, the two high-ranking Japanese military officers with heavy hearts bid farewell to each other and embarked on their own paths of no return.
Throughout the day, the Four Elements Regiment and the 683rd Brigade did not carry out any more offensives, but started civil engineering work again based on the Japanese army's rebuilt defense line in the encirclement.
The Japanese army, which had lost most of their heavy firepower, could only watch helplessly but could do nothing, even if they knew very well that perhaps what awaited them tomorrow would be the explosive packages thrown over by the Chinese.
Yoshio Laigu once tried hard to carry out a surprise attack with a small force to destroy the civil engineering operations of the Chinese army, but Tang Dao had long been preventing the Japanese army from jumping over the wall. Not necessarily safe in the trenches.
For the first time, the Japanese army felt the despair of being suppressed by firepower!
I just want to crush you with firepower, not rely on human lives to heap you up. The Chinese soldiers who surrounded you are full of spirit and confidence!
Xiangyue Qingshi in Lucheng and Shan Shanyuan in Pingbei City had nothing to do, so they could only order the Army Aviation of the Front to do their best to support them. The Japanese Army Aviation, which had gathered 2000 fighter planes, really only dared to drop bombs at an altitude of [-] meters this time. However, the inaccurate bombs hardly pose a threat to the Chinese army, which already has enough trench protection.
In desperation, Yoshio Laigu, the successor commander of the Second Mixed Brigade, had no choice but to ask the Army Aviation to drop bombs and food supplies instead.
This is not to hurt others, but to save oneself first, and it can be regarded as a trick that the Japanese army can persist long enough in the encirclement.
It's a pity that even bombs cannot be dropped at an altitude of 2000 meters, let alone all kinds of supplies with parachutes.
As soon as the mountain wind blows, at least a third of them fall on the Chinese position.
Seeing that the Japanese army gave away food for free, the Chinese soldiers on the front line are not welcome, and canned beef can be made with great effort. Even the infantry battalion with conditions will give each soldier two taels of liquor. It was an outing, and I almost stunned the Japanese soldiers on the front line.
The morale of the two sides was already far apart, and the commanders of the Japanese army were exhausted. In the evening, an extremely explosive news spread among the Japanese army.
"Your Excellency the brigade commander was seriously injured in the attack. He has been withdrawn into the mountainous area under the protection of the brigade chief of staff Yin Tengyota and the brigade escort squadron. Now the brigade's first infantry brigade captain Lai Gu Yoshio is the commander of the entire army." ! '
As the saying goes: Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles! The spread of the 'rumor' was comparable to the plague, and it took almost an hour to spread to all the Japanese troops in the encirclement.
As soon as I heard that the two top two big bosses of the brigade had run away, leaving them, the top soldiers, to fight against the Chinese, obviously acting as scapegoats for the big bosses, how could the morale of the army not fluctuate?
Yoshio Lai Gu was shocked and angry when he received the news. As the current supreme commander of the Second Mixed Brigade, how could he not know that this 'rumor' is the truth?
But to know the truth, there are less than 10 people in the entire brigade, which are five infantry captains and four captains of cavalry, artillery, engineering, and transportation. This news will not come from other sources, only these few high-level The weighted ones voluntarily leaked.
But what good would it do them to divulge such confidential information?
Some of them want to live, and don't want to be scapegoats for nothing.
This is the truth!
Thinking of this festival, Yoshio Lai Gu's forehead was covered with cold sweat, but there was nothing he could do for a while.
This is also a fatal mistake made by Yamashita after being hit hard. He only considered that Yoshio Raigu was a confidant, and he must firmly implement his military order, but he never thought that Yoshio Raigu himself was just a major, how could he rely on a military order? Just suppress so many officers who are at the same level as him or even higher?
And this fatal mistake finally broke out near the evening.
The Japanese army with fluctuating military spirits has already taken the initiative to leave the position and enter the mountainous area, and it is not a few or dozens, but it is based on the infantry squadron level.
This situation was immediately detected by Ming Xin and Shen Laoliu who were still lurking on the peak, and quickly reported the information to the regiment headquarters.
"Hey! The Japanese collapsed so quickly?" Tang Dao was also a little surprised.
This situation is really very different from the Japanese army he knew. You must know that although the Japanese army is completely at a disadvantage and will be wiped out sooner or later, the Japanese army is by no means the type that collapses before fighting. A ruthless character who bites the opponent.
If this is true, it can only mean that there was a major problem within the Japanese army. Although Tang Dao didn't know that it was because Wang Xiaoqiang and Xia Jiba had fired a few shots and knocked Yamashita unconscious, he still made a keen judgment on the direction .
"Order, the artillery battalion will bombard the Japanese defense line with full firepower for 10 minutes. The engineering company will hit him as many thunderbolts as possible first, and all the infantry will be on standby. If the Japanese army retreats, they will immediately attack across the board." Tang Dao knew that the fighter plane was slightly vertical Fleeing, although it is not completely sure that the Japanese army is on the verge of collapse, they still issue military orders decisively.
"In addition, call Brigadier Cheng and ask them to prepare to completely wipe out the current enemy. Maybe we don't have to wait until tomorrow morning. Today, we can drink celebration wine!"
"Tuan Zuo, could this be intentional by the Japanese army to lure our army to take the initiative to attack before all preparations are made to inflict sufficient damage on our army?" Gu Shaoxun, who had returned from the Second Battalion, was slightly worried.
"The Japanese are very proud. They have never regarded our Chinese soldiers as opponents, so they have never thought of killing or injuring the opponent's soldiers. Even now, their purpose is obvious, and they stand by and wait for help! Besides, the four of us The regiment won't overwhelm all the infantry at once, and to be honest, it doesn't make much practical sense to play this trick." Tang Dao thought for a while, shook his head and rejected Gu Shaoxun's suggestion.
"That's right, I agree with the leader's decision, the opportunity to fight is fleeting!" Ye Chenghuan took the initiative to answer. "If the Japanese army wants to run, this evening is their last time. After tonight, they will be unable to fly."
"Haha, but the Japanese never know that the mountain behind them is the real place of death!" Zhuang Shisan, the Chief of Military Supplies who rarely spoke, said with a smile, perhaps because he was in a good mood.
The battlefield ended one day earlier, and the burden on his shoulders as the chief of military supplies was a little lighter. How could he not be happy.
It's cool to fight with Tang Tuanzuo and kill devils, but it's a waste of material!
The artillerymen and infantry just fired and pulled the trigger, pouring shells and bullets into the Japanese positions, but do they know how many shells and bullets were used?
Just talking about the consumption of these two days, more than 6000 shells were used, 80 bullets were fired, and 5000 kilograms of explosives were thrown out. However, the two infantry divisions of the 17th Division and the 104th Division fought for a full six days, but it was useless. So many shells and explosives.
What's the matter, isn't it too late?Thinking of this, as the chief steward of the Four Elements Group, Master Zhuang, who is only in his thirties, has a lot of loose gray hair.
Of course, apart from this joy, he admired the chief he had chosen even more.
Sooner or later, the Japanese army would retreat into the mountains, which Tang Dao had already judged.Not only did most of the reconnaissance company's elite detour into the mountain in advance, Lei Xiong's first battalion also quietly withdrew from its position at ten o'clock in the morning, becoming the most terrifying strangler in the mountain.
At that time, it is fine if the Japanese army does not enter the mountain. Once they enter, the light infantry who have completely lost their heavy weapons will completely lose the possibility of surviving under the ambushes of unknown highlands.
In other words, this is Tang Dao's favorite result.
If the Japanese army just relied on field fortifications to carry them hard, the Four Elements Regiment and the 683 Brigade would not be able to eat them, but the casualties would be huge. The explosives used by Hong Tianlei were not unlimited. In the first wave of attacks in the early morning, It's already used up half of it.
That was also what Tang Dao deliberately asked for. He just wanted to use this wave of violent bombing to chill the Japanese army.
In less than 5 minutes, the whole regiment of the Four Elements Regiment was ready. The artillery battalion was the first to speak. The full output of 22 artillery guns fell on the simple defense line of the Japanese army, followed by more than a dozen thunderbolts erected more than 300 meters away!The artillery companies of the two infantry battalions also joined in the fun, and a dozen 82s were forced to fight, which was really cool.
A total of nearly fifty artillery pieces of large and small calibers were regarded as the first time that the Four Elements Regiment had full firepower, and the defense lines of the Japanese army with a length of more than 2000 meters were shrouded in gunpowder smoke.
But this is not over yet, the mortars of the regiments of the 683 Brigade also began to fire at the Japanese infantry in the front position. Although the artillery was small, it was more than 30 mortars.
According to post-war statistics, the intensity of artillery fire involving more than 80 artillery pieces at one time has never appeared even in the battlefield where the main force of the 16th Army and the No.[-] Division of the Japanese Army fought with tens of thousands of troops.
As Ye Chenghuan said, if the Japanese army wants to survive, this evening is the last chance to escape into the mountains.
Under such an ideology, China's artillery fire is like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Seeing that the Chinese had launched a general offensive, the Japanese army began to flee in various positions.
Then, there is the terrible chain reaction.
Regardless of whether it was because the various ministers of the Japanese army were unable to suppress it, or some of them secretly contributed to the flames, the defense line composed of more than 3600 Japanese troops actually collapsed in several places when the Chinese infantry began a tentative attack.
Visible to the naked eye, large strands of gray and dark blue surged towards the Japanese defense line along the breach.
"It was I who failed the trust of Your Excellency, Commander of the Brigade! In my own name, I sent an electric power to Commander Xiangyue Qingshi. The Chinese artillery fire was fierce. Our brigade's defense line has been breached, but please rest assured, Commander, the imperial officers and soldiers are still brave. Kill the enemy to repay His Majesty the Emperor!" Yoshio Laigu ordered with a livid face.
After the Jade Fragment message was sent, within ten seconds, "Bang!", there was a sudden gunshot in the small courtyard of the temporary headquarters of the Japanese army.
Seeing that his own defense line was about to collapse in just one day, Yoshio Laigu was disheartened, and chose what he thought was the most heroic way.
However, this kind of bravery was regarded as the most stupid way by both China and Japan after the war.
The Army Major, who was the supreme commander of the Second Mixed Brigade at the time, pulled out the bastard box and shot at the temple. His determination was so strong that none of the subordinates around him reacted.
The bastard box didn't get stuck. A shot from such a close range blasted a hole the size of a teacup in the head, and the white and red flowed all over the ground. He couldn't die anymore.
It stands to reason that even if he wanted to apologize, an officer of his level would choose to have a laparotomy under normal conditions, but that kind of technical action is never a one-shot kill, and it takes hours to die. Yoshio Laigu is probably afraid of death. Half-dead was beheaded by the Chinese captives, so he smashed his own head in advance.
Seeing that the supreme commander was belching farts, the officers and officers of the Japanese army who had long been bewildered didn't even want to take care of the corpse of Yoshio Yoshio Yoshio.
The brains of the Second Mixed Brigade completely collapsed one step ahead of the first-line infantry.
This also led to the fact that the few Japanese troops that were still stubbornly resisting could no longer contact the headquarters. Not to mention fighting on their own, the originally firm resistance was completely wiped out by suspicion.
The terrible retreat led to the complete disappearance of the will to fight. Even the hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops lost their resistance during the Battle of Songhu that day. It was not until they retreated a hundred kilometers away to rely on the defense line that there was sporadic resistance, let alone the Japanese army. There are less than 4000 people in the area.
In the end, in just 40 minutes, the Four Elements Regiment and the 683rd Brigade, which had already sensed the weakness of the Japanese army, did their best and deployed nearly [-] infantry in total to completely defeat the enemy in front of them.
Annihilated more than 2500 enemies!
And his own body only lost 300 in the battle, and he achieved a 1:10 battle loss ratio that stunned both China and Japan.
What's more terrible is that this is the battle loss ratio between the attacking side and the defending side.
This kind of battle loss ratio is even more exaggerated than the battle of Taierzhuang during the battle of Xuzhou that day. The 10 Chinese army encircled the two Japanese detachments with more than 1 people, seven or eight times the number of the enemy, and in the end it was only 2:[-]. battle damage.
The Japanese Army, which cited this battle as the army's shame, never recognized China's post-war statistics until the end of the entire war.
Even the Anti-Japanese Martyrs Monument built on the banks of the Zhuozhang River a few years after the final battle of Changle Village did not have more than a thousand names.
It's not important that the Japanese refuse to admit it. What's important is that this war of annihilation has not yet completely ended.
There are still more than a thousand Japanese invaders retreating into the mountains.
Chasing battles and jungle blocking battles will become the main theme of the battlefield in the next few days!
However, the battle of Changle Village has actually been completely over, and the disappearance of the second mixed brigade is destined to end.
(End of this chapter)

The morale of the two sides was already far apart, and the commanders of the Japanese army were exhausted. In the evening, an extremely explosive news spread among the Japanese army.
"Your Excellency the brigade commander was seriously injured in the attack. He has been withdrawn into the mountainous area under the protection of the brigade chief of staff Yin Tengyota and the brigade escort squadron. Now the brigade's first infantry brigade captain Lai Gu Yoshio is the commander of the entire army." ! '
As the saying goes: Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles! The spread of the 'rumor' was comparable to the plague, and it took almost an hour to spread to all the Japanese troops in the encirclement.
As soon as I heard that the two top two big bosses of the brigade had run away, leaving them, the top soldiers, to fight against the Chinese, obviously acting as scapegoats for the big bosses, how could the morale of the army not fluctuate?
Yoshio Lai Gu was shocked and angry when he received the news. As the current supreme commander of the Second Mixed Brigade, how could he not know that this 'rumor' is the truth?
But to know the truth, there are less than 10 people in the entire brigade, which are five infantry captains and four captains of cavalry, artillery, engineering, and transportation. This news will not come from other sources, only these few high-level The weighted ones voluntarily leaked.
But what good would it do them to divulge such confidential information?
Some of them want to live, and don't want to be scapegoats for nothing.
This is the truth!
Thinking of this festival, Yoshio Lai Gu's forehead was covered with cold sweat, but there was nothing he could do for a while.
This is also a fatal mistake made by Yamashita after being hit hard. He only considered that Yoshio Raigu was a confidant, and he must firmly implement his military order, but he never thought that Yoshio Raigu himself was just a major, how could he rely on a military order? Just suppress so many officers who are at the same level as him or even higher?
And this fatal mistake finally broke out near the evening.
The Japanese army with fluctuating military spirits has already taken the initiative to leave the position and enter the mountainous area, and it is not a few or dozens, but it is based on the infantry squadron level.
This situation was immediately detected by Ming Xin and Shen Laoliu who were still lurking on the peak, and quickly reported the information to the regiment headquarters.
"Hey! The Japanese collapsed so quickly?" Tang Dao was also a little surprised.
This situation is really very different from the Japanese army he knew. You must know that although the Japanese army is completely at a disadvantage and will be wiped out sooner or later, the Japanese army is by no means the type that collapses before fighting. A ruthless character who bites the opponent.
If this is true, it can only mean that there was a major problem within the Japanese army. Although Tang Dao didn't know that it was because Wang Xiaoqiang and Xia Jiba had fired a few shots and knocked Yamashita unconscious, he still made a keen judgment on the direction .
"Order, the artillery battalion will bombard the Japanese defense line with full firepower for 10 minutes. The engineering company will hit him as many thunderbolts as possible first, and all the infantry will be on standby. If the Japanese army retreats, they will immediately attack across the board." Tang Dao knew that the fighter plane was slightly vertical Fleeing, although it is not completely sure that the Japanese army is on the verge of collapse, they still issue military orders decisively.
"In addition, call Brigadier Cheng and ask them to prepare to completely wipe out the current enemy. Maybe we don't have to wait until tomorrow morning. Today, we can drink celebration wine!"
"Tuan Zuo, could this be intentional by the Japanese army to lure our army to take the initiative to attack before all preparations are made to inflict sufficient damage on our army?" Gu Shaoxun, who had returned from the Second Battalion, was slightly worried.
"The Japanese are very proud. They have never regarded our Chinese soldiers as opponents, so they have never thought of killing or injuring the opponent's soldiers. Even now, their purpose is obvious, and they stand by and wait for help! Besides, the four of us The regiment won't overwhelm all the infantry at once, and to be honest, it doesn't make much practical sense to play this trick." Tang Dao thought for a while, shook his head and rejected Gu Shaoxun's suggestion.
"That's right, I agree with the leader's decision, the opportunity to fight is fleeting!" Ye Chenghuan took the initiative to answer. "If the Japanese army wants to run, this evening is their last time. After tonight, they will be unable to fly."
"Haha, but the Japanese never know that the mountain behind them is the real place of death!" Zhuang Shisan, the Chief of Military Supplies who rarely spoke, said with a smile, perhaps because he was in a good mood.
The battlefield ended one day earlier, and the burden on his shoulders as the chief of military supplies was a little lighter. How could he not be happy.
It's cool to fight with Tang Tuanzuo and kill devils, but it's a waste of material!
The artillerymen and infantry just fired and pulled the trigger, pouring shells and bullets into the Japanese positions, but do they know how many shells and bullets were used?
Just talking about the consumption of these two days, more than 6000 shells were used, 80 bullets were fired, and 5000 kilograms of explosives were thrown out. However, the two infantry divisions of the 17th Division and the 104th Division fought for a full six days, but it was useless. So many shells and explosives.
What's the matter, isn't it too late?Thinking of this, as the chief steward of the Four Elements Group, Master Zhuang, who is only in his thirties, has a lot of loose gray hair.
Of course, apart from this joy, he admired the chief he had chosen even more.
Sooner or later, the Japanese army would retreat into the mountains, which Tang Dao had already judged.Not only did most of the reconnaissance company's elite detour into the mountain in advance, Lei Xiong's first battalion also quietly withdrew from its position at ten o'clock in the morning, becoming the most terrifying strangler in the mountain.
At that time, it is fine if the Japanese army does not enter the mountain. Once they enter, the light infantry who have completely lost their heavy weapons will completely lose the possibility of surviving under the ambushes of unknown highlands.
In other words, this is Tang Dao's favorite result.
If the Japanese army just relied on field fortifications to carry them hard, the Four Elements Regiment and the 683 Brigade would not be able to eat them, but the casualties would be huge. The explosives used by Hong Tianlei were not unlimited. In the first wave of attacks in the early morning, It's already used up half of it.
That was also what Tang Dao deliberately asked for. He just wanted to use this wave of violent bombing to chill the Japanese army.
In less than 5 minutes, the whole regiment of the Four Elements Regiment was ready. The artillery battalion was the first to speak. The full output of 22 artillery guns fell on the simple defense line of the Japanese army, followed by more than a dozen thunderbolts erected more than 300 meters away!The artillery companies of the two infantry battalions also joined in the fun, and a dozen 82s were forced to fight, which was really cool.
A total of nearly fifty artillery pieces of large and small calibers were regarded as the first time that the Four Elements Regiment had full firepower, and the defense lines of the Japanese army with a length of more than 2000 meters were shrouded in gunpowder smoke.
But this is not over yet, the mortars of the regiments of the 683 Brigade also began to fire at the Japanese infantry in the front position. Although the artillery was small, it was more than 30 mortars.
According to post-war statistics, the intensity of artillery fire involving more than 80 artillery pieces at one time has never appeared even in the battlefield where the main force of the 16th Army and the No.[-] Division of the Japanese Army fought with tens of thousands of troops.
As Ye Chenghuan said, if the Japanese army wants to survive, this evening is the last chance to escape into the mountains.
Under such an ideology, China's artillery fire is like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Seeing that the Chinese had launched a general offensive, the Japanese army began to flee in various positions.
Then, there is the terrible chain reaction.
Regardless of whether it was because the various ministers of the Japanese army were unable to suppress it, or some of them secretly contributed to the flames, the defense line composed of more than 3600 Japanese troops actually collapsed in several places when the Chinese infantry began a tentative attack.
Visible to the naked eye, large strands of gray and dark blue surged towards the Japanese defense line along the breach.
"It was I who failed the trust of Your Excellency, Commander of the Brigade! In my own name, I sent an electric power to Commander Xiangyue Qingshi. The Chinese artillery fire was fierce. Our brigade's defense line has been breached, but please rest assured, Commander, the imperial officers and soldiers are still brave. Kill the enemy to repay His Majesty the Emperor!" Yoshio Laigu ordered with a livid face.
After the Jade Fragment message was sent, within ten seconds, "Bang!", there was a sudden gunshot in the small courtyard of the temporary headquarters of the Japanese army.
Seeing that his own defense line was about to collapse in just one day, Yoshio Laigu was disheartened, and chose what he thought was the most heroic way.
However, this kind of bravery was regarded as the most stupid way by both China and Japan after the war.
The Army Major, who was the supreme commander of the Second Mixed Brigade at the time, pulled out the bastard box and shot at the temple. His determination was so strong that none of the subordinates around him reacted.
The bastard box didn't get stuck. A shot from such a close range blasted a hole the size of a teacup in the head, and the white and red flowed all over the ground. He couldn't die anymore.
It stands to reason that even if he wanted to apologize, an officer of his level would choose to have a laparotomy under normal conditions, but that kind of technical action is never a one-shot kill, and it takes hours to die. Yoshio Laigu is probably afraid of death. Half-dead was beheaded by the Chinese captives, so he smashed his own head in advance.
Seeing that the supreme commander was belching farts, the officers and officers of the Japanese army who had long been bewildered didn't even want to take care of the corpse of Yoshio Yoshio Yoshio.
The brains of the Second Mixed Brigade completely collapsed one step ahead of the first-line infantry.
This also led to the fact that the few Japanese troops that were still stubbornly resisting could no longer contact the headquarters. Not to mention fighting on their own, the originally firm resistance was completely wiped out by suspicion.
The terrible retreat led to the complete disappearance of the will to fight. Even the hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops lost their resistance during the Battle of Songhu that day. It was not until they retreated a hundred kilometers away to rely on the defense line that there was sporadic resistance, let alone the Japanese army. There are less than 4000 people in the area.
In the end, in just 40 minutes, the Four Elements Regiment and the 683rd Brigade, which had already sensed the weakness of the Japanese army, did their best and deployed nearly [-] infantry in total to completely defeat the enemy in front of them.
Annihilated more than 2500 enemies!
And his own body only lost 300 in the battle, and he achieved a 1:10 battle loss ratio that stunned both China and Japan.
What's more terrible is that this is the battle loss ratio between the attacking side and the defending side.
This kind of battle loss ratio is even more exaggerated than the battle of Taierzhuang during the battle of Xuzhou that day. The 10 Chinese army encircled the two Japanese detachments with more than 1 people, seven or eight times the number of the enemy, and in the end it was only 2:[-]. battle damage.
The Japanese Army, which cited this battle as the army's shame, never recognized China's post-war statistics until the end of the entire war.
Even the Anti-Japanese Martyrs Monument built on the banks of the Zhuozhang River a few years after the final battle of Changle Village did not have more than a thousand names.
It's not important that the Japanese refuse to admit it. What's important is that this war of annihilation has not yet completely ended.
There are still more than a thousand Japanese invaders retreating into the mountains.
Chasing battles and jungle blocking battles will become the main theme of the battlefield in the next few days!
However, the battle of Changle Village has actually been completely over, and the disappearance of the second mixed brigade is destined to end.
