All gods, the lord who started with the bright sword

Chapter 176, Seventy-two regiment blocking battle
It was late at night, and lights illuminated the house.

There is a map spread on the long table, which is very clearly illuminated by the incandescent lamp, which saves a lot of eyes compared to using an oil lamp.

Due to the lack of diesel, the boss was reluctant to use diesel generators to generate electricity. In his opinion, it was too extravagant.

The newly acquired solar panels convert the sun's energy into electricity.

Environmental protection is secondary, and the key is not to waste more fuel, which has been unanimously loved by everyone.

Twenty sets of solar photovoltaic panel lighting systems, half of which are already being sent to Yan'an.The chiefs who live in cave dwellings will definitely like this gift.

"Is there no news from the [-]nd Regiment?"

Chen Hao couldn't help yawning, and asked the deputy chief of staff who came in.

The deputy chief of staff shook his head: "It's almost here. According to the speed of the Japanese trucks, it's almost here."

Yawning is contagious.

Master Liu, who was tired all day, couldn't help but yawned, but this battle was too important for him to rest.

Master Liu said to Chen Hao: "If you can't hold on anymore, go to rest first. When the news comes back, I will send someone to notify you."

"Alright, I'll go to sleep in the car and let me know if there's any news."

Chen Hao was really tired, he didn't rest well these days.

From the soft big bed in a luxury villa, suddenly to the hard kang in a private house.Such a huge gap makes it difficult for people to adapt for a while.

To describe it in one sentence: it is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.

In comparison, the spacious Dongfeng Warrior can be regarded as a good resting environment with the seats folded down.

On an unnamed road.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who were lying in the field were not only chilled by the cool night wind, but also harassed by various mosquitoes in the field.

War is never romantic.

It is a very hard work, and it can even be said that it has suffered a lot.

Lying in the wild and suffering from mosquito bites is a rare rest.

Prior to this, the soldiers of the [-]th Regiment marched for a day, and many soldiers had blisters on the soles of their feet, and their calves were swollen.

There was no time to rest, or even pick out the blisters.

The soldiers of the whole regiment turned into experts at digging pits, digging pits and laying mines on the road, and digging trenches and other fortifications on both sides of the announcement.

By the time the entire battlefield was set up, it was already completely dark.

The cooking smoke cannot be exposed, and the soldiers can only eat dry food to fill their stomachs.

Fortunately, the regiment headquarters attached great importance to this battle, and they were allotted energy bars and canned luncheon meat before departure.

Delicious, delicious and rich in energy, it brings rare happiness to the soldiers who have been busy for a day.

"Discover the convoy, discover the convoy."

The voice of the forward reconnaissance post came from the walkie-talkie, and Captain Cheng, who had been waiting hard, suddenly regained his energy.

He listened attentively.

It is 3 kilometers away from the front observation post, and the roar of the engine can be heard vaguely.

The enemy is coming.

The bridge road destruction plan was stopped by the Japanese paratroopers.

Their [-]nd Regiment had to stop the enemy for at least one day and one night. This was a tough battle.

Of course, if you play well, you must be famous.

It was the first time in the combat history of the Eighth Route Army that a regiment fought against a Type A infantry regiment.

As a veteran main team, you have to show the momentum of a big brother and set a benchmark for others.

Let the friendly army listen, and have to give a thumbs up sincerely.

Head Cheng waved his hand with great fighting spirit: "Notice, get up and prepare for the battle."

The voice just fell.

The voice on the intercom sounded a little panicked: "No, it's not a truck, it's a tank!"

"There are so many tanks that you can't see the end at a glance."

The faces of the regiment cadres changed.

The intelligence only said that the troops of a wing of the enemy arrived in nearly a hundred trucks.

But it was never said that there were tanks, and there were still many tanks.

The difference between the two is huge.

Trucks can only go on the road and lack off-road capabilities.Tracked tanks can go off-road and off-road, which means that there are more directions for the enemy to attack.

I'm afraid it won't be able to stop the Japanese army smoothly as planned before.

Captain Cheng had a bad feeling.

But no matter what the situation is now, they can only bite the bullet and go on.

"Attention, the Japanese army has a large number of tanks, and all rocket launchers are ready to destroy tank targets first."

Leader Cheng picked up the walkie-talkie and informed the three battalions below of the situation.

At the same time, he commanded the artillery and prepared for firepower.

As the veteran main force, the [-]nd Regiment received very good treatment.

The bazooka is equipped to the company level, with three for each company.

It has an [-]mm mortar battery and nine mortars.

For this battle, a 120-type rocket launcher was also strengthened, equipped with [-] rockets.

Compared with a first-class infantry regiment of the Japanese army, this level of firepower is not weak at all.Somehow stronger.

But war is never an accumulation of weapons.

The key to victory or defeat depends on the person who uses the weapon.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army ambushing on both sides of the road were holding Type [-] assault rifles with the safety on, ready to deal a fatal blow to the enemy at any time.

In the temporary machine gun bunkers, there are various types of light and heavy machine guns.

Type [-] heavy machine gun, Maxine heavy machine gun, and Type [-] heavy machine gun. The three types of heavy machine guns are three grades behind.

The [-]nd regiment is not as good as the independent regiment, which was raised by mothers.

They are not yet qualified to eliminate the old heavy weapons and replace them with unified configurations.

Therefore, it can only be used reasonably, and according to the pros and cons of the weapon, decide where to allocate it.

Type [-] heavy machine gun with [-]mm caliber bullets can see the steel plate of the truck as nothing and easily penetrate a hole.

This kind of machine gun is naturally a good position for first-class one.

Even the deputy shooter has one more than other heavy machine guns.

Not far from the positions of the various machine guns, there is a bazooka combat team consisting of two people.Hearing the order from above to prepare for battle, one of them had already carried the bazooka loaded with rockets on his shoulder and stared at the road.

The deputy shooter beside him waited nervously.

There are 33 bazookas in the regiment. In order not to waste firepower, they must fire in an orderly manner.

Every bazooka has a target.

The task of the deputy shooter is to count the passing cars on the road and point out the target for the bazooka shooter.

The sound is getting louder.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army ambushing in the position could already see the long convoy of tanks.

It was the Japanese tank teaching brigade who cooperated in the attack this time.It was originally deployed in the Kanto region to guard against the Soviets.

Since the Battle of Nuomenkan, the Japanese army has made great efforts to develop the armored forces after suffering from the suffering of the Soviet armored forces.

I saw that Germany's blitzkrieg was played so smoothly, and the effect was so good.

The Japanese army envied it.

However, due to the lack of resources and insufficient conditions, the Japanese tank troops were inherently deficient, and it was even more difficult to make up for it the day after tomorrow.

Fortunately, on the Asian battlefield, there are no other industrial countries.

Even the underdeveloped bean diced tanks of the Japanese army can take advantage of the opportunity that there are no tigers in the mountains, and act as a fake king to run rampant in the world.

In preparation for this battle, all tanks were transported from Manchuria by train.

The Chariot Teaching Brigade is the headliner of the armored forces and consists of two tank wings.

Each tank regiment has a total of 65 tanks and artillery tanks.

Among them are 36 Type 97 modified medium-sized tanks, eighteen Type 95 light tanks, and eleven Type-70 artillery tanks, totaling [-] people.

This configuration is more expansive than other tank formations.

The key is the eleven Type I artillery tanks, which are the latest anti-tank tanks developed by the Japanese army, equipped with 75mm Type [-] field guns.

A total of less than [-] vehicles were produced, and most of them were transferred to the tank teaching brigade.The purpose is to destroy the eight-way tank.

In response to this battle, the Japanese army spent all their money.

Major General Shinagawa Ryuji, head of the Chariot Teaching Brigade, and Major General Tokutaro Sakai, head of the No.11 Infantry Brigade, who was following the army, chatted together in a truck.

Both of them are from Kumamoto, and they are fellow villagers from the same area.

Speaking of the topic of hometown, there are endless things to say.

As for the danger...

They don't care at all.

The airborne troops sent back news that the Eighth Route Guerrilla's plot to blow up the bridge had been shattered.

They have trucks to travel, and they can travel nearly [-] kilometers in an hour, which is a speed that Balu can't imagine.

Junjing Tokutaro said arrogantly: "Let Tubalu eat ashes!"

Unaware of the danger at all, the nine [-]th light tanks led by the First Tank Regiment drove carelessly into the ambush area.

Compared with the [-]-ton [-] cavalry tank, the [-]-type light tank is already a great improvement, with a weight of [-] tons.

The thickest part of the armor is twelve millimeters.

The main gun is a Type 37 [-]mm rapid-fire gun, and the auxiliary weapon is a [-]mm heavy machine gun.

The entire tank is driven by two people.

The front tank was driving and suddenly found a big hole in the wall.The driver quickly turned on the warning lights and stepped on the brakes to stop before falling into the big pit.

"Go and see, what's going on?"

The gunner opened the roof cover and sneaked out to check.

The headlights illuminated the entire pit, and the road was completely cut off.The pit is five meters long, four meters wide and two meters deep.

If the car hadn't been braked just now, the whole tank would have fallen into it, and one can imagine the result of the people inside.

The tanks of the Japanese army were not equipped with communication products such as radio walkie-talkies, and all communication depended on roaring.

The gunner informed the commander, and immediately ran back, looking for the superior to report the situation.

The lead car was forced to stop, and traffic jams naturally occurred on the highway.

The whole thing became a long queue.

But the car behind still drove forward without knowing it, and the road was blocked even more tightly.

Soon, the experienced chariot wing sent out auxiliary personnel to direct the traffic situation.

They waved small flags to prevent those behind from continuing to drive forward.

Shinagawa Ryuji, who stopped the car behind, got out of the car and asked about the situation.Knowing that the road ahead was cut off, he didn't take it seriously.

Just according to the usual practice, the chariots were sent to the two wings to investigate and guard, and people were sent to build bridges with chopped log boards to ensure the passage of cars.

Although the paratroopers have tried their best to ensure that the road is smooth.

But after all, the road is too long and there are too many enemies, the paratroopers sent cannot take care of everything.

There were still two road cut-offs along the way, which were caused by the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army.

Backfilling the pit is naturally impossible.

The chariot teaching brigade has an engineering squadron to ensure road passage, and its task is to open roads and build bridges when encountering mountains and rivers.It's just a waste of time.

Shinagawa Ryuji confidently said to Tokutaro, who was traveling with him:
"Don't worry, the engineers are very fast, and they can go on in 10 minutes at most. It won't delay our going to the Eighth Road Armory for dinner tomorrow morning."

Juni Tokutaro nodded and returned to the car to sit. The mosquitoes in the wild are too poisonous.

at the same time.

Head Cheng looked at the Japanese army that had formed a long snake on the highway, and fell into ecstasy.

God, this is food delivery for us!

He also didn't expect that the effect of digging a big hole would be so good.The stopped trucks and tanks have all become living targets.

"Leader, signal to fight!"

The political commissar next to him advised him to accept it as soon as he was ready, and to eat the fat that reached his mouth first.

Head Cheng held up the binoculars and said impatiently: "Don't wait any longer, let more enemies enter our encirclement."

He felt that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

It would be best if the trucks and tanks in the entire ambush circle were blocked into a long snake, and if the tail was pinched, all the fish inside would be meat on the chopping board, which could be slaughtered by him.

Don't you believe that you can't beat an infantry regiment if you occupy the dominant terrain?
It is a division A, that person is also a mortal body, and he will die as if he was shot.

But in fact the enemy is not a fool.

Within 2 minutes, the convoy behind stopped and said nothing. The tanks in the ambush circle, especially the Type [-] light tanks, turned around one after another and drove towards the two wing positions.

The [-]mm heavy machine gun on the vehicle fired indiscriminately at the wilderness for fire reconnaissance.

The political commissar looked wrong: "Old Cheng, the devil is investigating and alerting, and there is no time, so hurry up and give an order."

Leader Cheng realized that his greed might not be able to fulfill his wish.

He is a person who listens to persuasion. When he sees a deal, he immediately pulls out the flare gun on his waist and pulls the trigger towards the sky.

With a thud.

A red flare is rising.

This was the signal for the whole regiment to launch an attack. The moment they saw the signal flare, the soldiers who had already been ready manipulated their hungry weapons and dealt a fatal blow to the enemy.

Da da da……

Light machine guns spit out flames, strafing exposed targets.

The enemies in the truck were given heavy machine guns with more powerful bullets.A series of bullets swept into the carriage mercilessly, massacring the unprepared Japanese soldiers.

The rumbling sound of the explosion was incessant.

That was the bazookas of the whole regiment showing their power, and each bazooka was aimed at a target.

The weapons specially used to deal with tanks and armored vehicles easily blew up the approaching devil tanks into living coffins.

Flames from the explosion splashed everywhere, and black smoke columns followed one after another.

Of the nearly thirty tanks in the ambush circle, 1 were destroyed in less than one minute after the start of the battle.

"Eight Grid Road!"

Tokutaro Tokutaro in the car stared blankly at the scene of purgatory on the road ahead, and Ryuji Shinagawa's heart-piercing curses came from his ears.

He couldn't help yelling: "Baga! Damn the Eighth Route Army, they are all dead!"
