Rise from eight hundred.

Chapter 904 Different!

The commander of the 108th Division, Xia Xiong Yuan, who was still anxious about the battle situation in Licheng, hugged his head inappropriately when he received the telegram from the staff of the division who rushed to hand it over.

It was as if a sap had hit his forehead directly in the void.

"Baga! Damn it, damn it, the damned Chinese are going to fight for help again!" The head of the Xiong division, who took a few breaths, roared in pain.

Why again, no need to ask, it made Xia Xiong Yuan smell a familiar smell.

The 108th Division has suffered a lot in this regard. Since January, in order to get through the traffic from HD to Changzhi, the 108th Division has been confronted with various Chinese troops. Both the Jinsui Army and the Sichuan Army are old opponents. On the way to be beaten, the 108th Division was unstoppable.

But as the saying goes: How can you not get your shoes wet when you often walk by the river! The 108th Division also encountered their most annoying opponent, the 80st Division under the No.921 Army of the Chinese Revolutionary Army.

According to Xiong Yuan's evaluation of them, it is simply a peasant armed force, how can it be worthy of the regular army establishment?

Xia Xiong Yuan's evaluation of them is not unreasonable. As an infantry division, this army has at least over 108 troops, let alone the entire [-]th Division!For an infantry brigade, even an infantry regiment, no matter what, they must have the strength to fight!

But this infantry division never seems to have the courage to confront the Imperial Japanese Army head-on. They are always sneak attacking, sneak attacking, what's more, sneak attacking!
The size of the troops for each attack is not large, either an infantry squad, a supply team, or an infantry squadron or infantry brigade?No, people look down on them.

And the most troublesome thing is that once an attack occurs, someone must rescue it!When an infantry squadron is besieged, at least a corresponding force must be dispatched to rescue it, but the most annoying thing about this group of peasants is that you send too many people, and they just go straight to the mountains and send few people. Alright, alright, his main force is waiting for these guys somewhere!
However, after three months of fighting, the 108th Division of the Han-Chang communication line was finally opened up. Good guy, the head-to-head battle with the main force of the Chinese army did not lose more than 1000 people, but they were "smashed and beaten" by the peasants. , the battle damage was almost equal to that.

It was simply a group of cunning poisonous snakes, who jumped out and took a bite while people were not paying attention. Although the dose of venom was not enough to kill, it still hurt!

Unexpectedly, today they have such a big appetite and started to attack more than one infantry brigade. Who gave them such courage?
"Order the Nomura brigade to defend on the spot and wait for support!" Xiong Yuan ordered without thinking.

Although the ambush of the army supporting Licheng made Xia Xiong Yuan's brain buzz, but out of confidence in the combat power of the Imperial Army, Xia Xiong Yuan has not lost its position. It is impossible for the Chinese to defeat the 1500 people under their command in a short time elite soldiers.

The Imperial Army is not inexperienced in this area. The Battle of Parallel Pass that broke out half a year ago can be used as a reference. Although the case of a 1000-strong supply team being surrounded and wiped out is shameful, it was a battle of the Eightieth Army. It was caused by the siege of nearly [-] infantry divisions.

Moreover, it was just a group of second-line heavy soldiers, and they resisted for a whole day when the terrain and force were completely at a disadvantage.

"Your Excellency, Commander, but now there are less than 2000 infantrymen in the city!" The Japanese Army Colonel gasped.

Because of the need to control the long 200-kilometer Han-Chang communication line, the North China Front Army Command has not yet dispatched enough security forces to station, and the 108th Division had to deploy sufficient troops in various counties and towns along the way. But an infantry regiment and some subsidiary troops.

If the main force of these infantry is sent out for reinforcements, the strength of the defenders in the city will drop to a terrible number. What if the Chinese besiege Lucheng?
"Bastard! The empire can lose a lieutenant general and division commander, but it must not give up 1500 imperial infantry easily!" Xia Xiongyuan's answer at that moment was so lofty that all the Japanese officers present were in awe.

At that moment, the light of the morning sun that had just risen from the sky shone on the shoulders of the Japanese lieutenant general, and there seemed to be light on his body!

At least in the eyes of this group of Japanese, that is the case!

But after the war, the Japanese army headquarters commented on the Japanese army lieutenant general who resolutely sent a second wave of reinforcements regardless of his own safety: This is a decision so stupid that it will shame the imperial army!
Japanese Navy: No, this is just the most normal choice made by the bottom of a group of fools!We don't need to blame a poor student too much!

The Japanese Army's red-faced response: Idiots never talk to idiots!

The Japanese Navy is meaningful: Oh!It's rare for a fool to know himself so clearly!
Japanese Army
Tang Dao and Cheng Da Brigadier don't know at this moment that the battle they fought together, which is not ranked in the history of the Great Patriotic War, even caused the Japanese Army Minister and Navy Minister to criticize each other at the imperial military meeting Saliva salute, otherwise, these two people who have already felt quite speculative will definitely issue a joint statement: Welcome the Imperial Japanese Navy to come to Taihang Mountain for a battle. If you don’t come, it’s your grandson!
After all, the Japanese navy not only has aircraft and ships, but also has a marine corps with a strength of tens of thousands. On the eve of its defeat, it even had a brigade of 260 marine corps.

As long as they dare to come, because the two of them want to swallow each other's "engine oil" relationship, the Japanese North China Front Army may be just a trail behind, and it may take the initiative to disclose its information to the Chinese side.

There is a famous saying: The lesson that people learn from history is to never learn the lesson!

Xia Xiongyuan demonstrated this characteristic to the fullest. In Lucheng, which has long been ready for battle, nearly 10 troops left the city in just 2000 minutes, including 6 infantry squadrons, a heavy machine gun squadron, two artillery squadrons, and a cavalry squadron. A squadron of tanks.

This elite unit similar to the future synthetic regiment has 1200 infantry, 12 heavy machine guns, 92 6 infantry guns, 8 94-type mountain guns, ten 98-type tanks, and [-] cavalry. It is enough to put it anywhere. Destroy the existence of a Chinese infantry brigade.

However, this has drained the elite troops of the entire 108th Division headquarters. The Lucheng garrison where the 108th Division headquarters is located has less than 600 people left, most of whom are second-line logistics troops. Lucheng, which is more important than Licheng , Changzhi is almost an empty city.

In the already chaotic Lucheng, radio waves are transmitted to Shentouling!
Brigadier Cheng, who was directing the sweeping of the battlefield to reap the fruits of victory, was first surprised and then overjoyed after receiving the telegram.

The richness gained in this battle today is far beyond my imagination.

If the Japanese defenders of Lucheng defended the city, not to mention his 683 brigade, even if they gathered the main force of the entire 921 division, they would have no choice but to take Lucheng without heavy firepower, but the Japanese dared to abandon the city. Power was handed over to him.

If it were someone else, they might be satisfied with the results of today's battle.

Annihilating 1500 Japanese soldiers, the capture was useless, but the casualties were only 200, and the battle damage ratio reached an astonishing 1:8.

Such a big victory has almost established his position as the number one general in the entire [-]th Army, and even in the entire sequence of famous generals in the Chinese army, he must have a place.

Yes, the battle situation is beyond everyone's imagination.

When the 772 regiment rushed to the battlefield, the supplementary regiment had already defeated the Japanese army without their hands.

All over the mountains and plains, there are Chinese soldiers with red-tasseled guns chasing the Japanese invaders!

The tenacious Japanese infantry were not destroyed by a sudden rain of bullets, nor were they blown up by more than 3000 grenades, although they had already suffered more than half of their battle damage from the crazy impact of bullet rain and flying shrapnel.

When the charge of the Chinese army reverberated in the mountains, almost all the Japanese infantrymen who could still stand had raised their rifles. Hand-to-hand combat is the best way to demonstrate the bravery of the Imperial Japanese Army. They dared to fight this Soldiers on the planet fight!

Unfortunately, what greeted them was not the Chinese-made rifles and bayonets that were ten centimeters shorter than the Type [-] rifles in their impression, but a red-tasseled spear that was more than two meters long!
That was not hand-to-hand combat, it was a one-sided massacre!

The 683 Brigade Supplementary Regiment is the worst equipped unit in the 921 Division, none of them!

Because most of the guns and ammunition are given priority to the two main regiments, and even some soldiers who have been in the army for nearly two years do not have the opportunity to shoot live ammunition until they are replenished into the main regiment.

But this does not mean that their combat effectiveness is low. What is the secret of the [-]th Army's ability to survive the brutal civil war for nearly a decade?
Is it low military pay?Are there many poor people?Or don't even have to eat?

It is faith!

The joy and satisfaction from the spirit cannot be given by material!
Those impoverished young people joined this army because of some ideals. If they don't have guns, they can build them themselves!
Huaxia's most traditional red-tasseled spear is their first choice!

During the ten months of joining the army, many of them may not be very proficient in shooting, and they couldn't even throw two grenades within the specified time, but the assassination of the red-tasseled gun was unsurpassed.

This is why Brigadier Cheng chose them as the main force for the ambush instead of using two main groups!

Bullet and grenade attack, but lasted for 1 minutes, the charge horn sounded!
Of the 1800 supplementary regiment officers and soldiers, at least 1200 were armed with red tasseled guns, and 600 people used rifles and shell guns as supplementary firepower, and rushed to the remnants of the Japanese army who were planning to fight to the death.

Then, in the face of this primitive weapon that was more than half a meter longer than the [-]-style rifle, the iron-headed Japanese infantry had no power to fight back!

In just 2 minutes, it was completely smashed.

In hand-to-hand combat, Japanese infantry pay attention to the skills and strength of stabbing, poking, blocking, and teasing, but the ancient Chinese spear technique advocates one inch long and one inch strong!

If you stab, I will stab too!

However, the result of this is that your bayonet is half a meter away from me!My red-tasseled gun has stabbed you into candied haws!

If you block, I will stab!And there were several red-tasseled spears stabbing at the same time!Supplementary regiments with far more troops than the Japanese army have this qualification!

It's a Jill!

It's not that the Japanese infantry didn't take a desperate fight to stop caring about any of their colleagues, and pulled the trigger to shoot, but in the face of the menacing red-tasseled gun stabbing towards them, how many of them dared to aim and shoot?Or, how many chances can the red-tasseled gun like a poisonous dragon spit out a letter give you to shoot and pull the bolt again?
The miserable cries of the successively killed Japanese infantry resounded through the mountains, which also contributed to the defeat of the Japanese infantry!
If one person escapes, a chain reaction will be formed, eventually forming an overall rout!
What the Chinese soldiers had to do was to catch up and stab the Japanese infantrymen who had lost their courage with red-tasseled guns, which was easier than hunting rabbits!
At least, the hare ran much faster than the Japanese infantry.

In the mountains, the cowhide boots inlaid with iron that the Japanese infantry were proud of became the biggest obstacle to their escape. The heavy cowhide boots made it impossible for them to compete with the Chinese soldiers wearing light cloth shoes.

And the first few Type 94 tanks that made the Japanese infantry full of confidence did not exert their power as they imagined.

In previous battles, the light and flexible 94 was almost invincible on the mountainous battlefield.

The average steel plate protection of seven or eight millimeters makes the Type 94 armored vehicle completely fearless of light and heavy machine guns. Basically, it will be accompanied by infantry squads for protection, and it is difficult to be blown up by the explosive packs carried by Chinese soldiers. The two 7.7mm heavy machine guns have completely become the heavy firepower of the two walking.

In many battles, the Type 94 light tanks were used to open the way to suppress the firepower of the Chinese light and heavy machine guns, cover the infantry charge, and win the final victory.

But on this battlefield, everything is different!

The Chinese didn't rush to use any explosive packs and grenades to cluster, and all they threw out were Molotov cocktails!
At such a short distance, every Type 94 light tank caught off guard by at least five Molotov cocktails on its cold body!

If it's just that the armor is scorched by those flowing flames, it's fine. At most, it can give the tank soldiers some warmth in this cold early spring.

At least, at the beginning of the attack, almost all the Type 94 light tanks reacted, tried their best to turn the front of the car, aimed the muzzle at the flank, and planned to fight back, but when the blue flames flowed into the gap along the steel plate armor and entered the engine , Grilled to the tank!
The nightmare is coming!
Those giant steel beasts that couldn't be pierced by machine guns and couldn't be blown up by grenades began to burst into orange-red flames, and the color was even more gorgeous than the rising sun.

The sharply rising heat let alone the interior of the tank, even the hair and eyebrows of the Chinese soldiers who were less than ten meters away from the tank were curled.

Then, there is the explosion, the mixture of fuel and ammunition in the car is enough to turn the Type 94 tank into a large firework!
Not to mention that the surrounding Japanese infantry were burned and bombed by their own tanks and suffered heavy casualties. Even the attacking Chinese soldiers suffered nearly ten casualties because of the close distance!
It can be said that the battlefield attacking the 94-type light tank was the most tragic battlefield in the ambush at Shentouling. The Japanese side paid nearly a hundred people for this, and several tanks were also burned into empty shells by the terrible flames. Even these scrap irons were not left for the Japanese, and all were disassembled and transported away.

Of course, all this was worth it. Not only did the first few Type 94 tanks fail to take advantage of the firepower of walking, but they also completely blocked the way forward for the Japanese army, completely becoming a dead end.

The cheap and easy-to-use Molotov cocktails made Comrade Wang Xiaoqiang's enthusiasm for Tang Tuanzuo rise again, and he even agreed to Tang Dao's "unequal treaty" that he needed 100 labors, and asked Tang Dao to provide him with [-] Molotov cocktails!Even if he buys raw materials such as liquor by himself.

Don't think that the principle of the Molotov cocktail is simple, so you can make it yourself. If you don't master the ratio of raw materials, you might turn yourself into a roast pig!

It is not uncommon for the Japanese army to escape the battlefield. In order to ensure the annihilation of the main force of the Japanese army, the supplementary regiment gave up attacking the Japanese cavalry at the forefront. The meaning, but directly urged the horses to flee from the battlefield, running so fast.

Even if the 772 regiment at the foot of the mountain responded quickly and organized machine guns to shoot at it, the Japanese cavalry did not stop at all. Yao watched the gang of escaped fish escape.

However, in order to prevent these Japanese cavalry from returning to Lucheng to report, Brigadier Cheng sent at least one infantry company to blockade the nearby hills. There was no possibility for them to return, and the only direction they could go was Licheng, twelve kilometers away.

Although Xia Xiongyuan, who was far away in Lucheng, never received any reply from his subordinates, but he was confident enough that he thought that maybe mountains and rivers blocked the radio waves, and he also missed the last chance to correct his mistakes!
A battle of Shentouling that Tang Dao originally expected was slightly different from the previous time and space, but at this time, it turned out to be just the beginning.

Far beyond the expectations of the little butterfly in the future!
