Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Chapter 617 Tank Squadron, Artillery Counterattack

On the first regiment's position, the flames caused by the explosion were quickly extinguished by the soldiers who entered the trench. The soldiers of the second battalion resisted the burning sensation on the ground and lay down in the trench.

The Japanese army sent about one company of puppet troops to take the lead to investigate the firepower situation of the Eighth Route Army positions, and they were immediately repelled by the soldiers of the Second Battalion.

Then the commander of the second battalion and the trainer walked along the trenches to check the situation of the position separately. They saw Geng Erdong, the commander of the second battalion, covering his mouth and nose with a wet towel, walking in the trench with a cat on his waist, but the scene in front of him made him very angry.

Geng Erdong looked around, his eyes narrowed, and he immediately shouted: "Wang Youquan!"

"Here!" Squad leader Wang Youquan hurriedly responded when he saw that it was the battalion commander.

"Why don't the soldiers in your class wear gas masks, when the order from the battalion headquarters is just a display?"

Wang Youquan looked in the direction of Geng Erdong's finger. The machine gunner in his class took off his gas mask at some point.

Although the fire on the position was extinguished, the surrounding mountains and forests were still emitting fire and thick smoke. Jing Dagang considered that he could just resist the enemy's advance from east to west, so he didn't do anything about it. Instead, he asked the soldiers on the position to wear gas masks.

Geng Erdong was the battalion commander, so he didn't need to be the battalion commander to come forward directly for some matters, and then he left with a cold face. Wang Youquan's face, which was smiling just now, collapsed in an instant.

"Damn it, Xu Haiguo, what's the matter with you kid? You saw the opportunity to give me eye drops when the battalion commander came, right?"

"Squad leader, I can't see clearly with this thing. If the enemy rushes up." Xu Haiguo said with a bitter face.

"It's nothing, an order is an order!"

The episode passed in a flash, and after the tentative attack, Kojima Kichizo realized that the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side did not suffer too many casualties after the bombing.

Immediately adopted a more radical approach, the Appeasement Army on the two wings acted as a feint to attract and disperse the troops of the Eighth Route Army, and then gathered heavy troops in front, intending to use a storm to attack the position of one regiment.

Although the main force of the attack was the appeasement army, the Japanese army still followed the regular offensive process, and the twelve mountain cannons in the rear artillery position started to bombard a regiment's position in unison.Then the infantry began to advance under the cover of the tank squadron.

Before the start of World War II, the development of the tank forces of various countries was roughly at the same level. The Japanese armored force composed of various beans was actually one of the most powerful armored forces at that time.

Especially after 37 years, after the Japanese army's Type [-] medium tank entered service, its comprehensive performance was not inferior to that of tanks from Western countries at the same time.

In the Nomenkan conflict, the Japanese army lost in logistical support, the Japanese armored forces lost in tactical concepts, and Big Brother only won miserably. It was the Pacific battlefield that really made people realize the weakness of the Japanese armored forces.

There was a T-34 crisis in Germany, a zoo crisis in Big Brother, and a Stuart crisis in the Japanese army.

At this time, the Japanese army did not have a chariot division organized for joint operations of many arms, only a temporarily formed chariot group, or a chariot squadron attached to the infantry division.

The tank squadron under the Search Wing of the [-]th Division of the Japanese Army is supporting this operation. It is a mixed squadron. The tank squad is equipped with three Type [-] light tanks, and the second to third tank teams are each equipped with three Type [-] medium tanks, a total of twelve tanks.

Although a regiment was besieged by the Japanese army on the ground, the tactics of the Japanese tank troops were the same as the infantry, and they were relatively rigid, adopting the most common T-shaped battle formation.

The tank squadron was placed with great hope by Kizang Kojima, with two medium tank squads as the first echelon, and light tank squads distributed on both wings to prevent enemy flank attacks and protect the offensive formation of our own infantry. Always be at the rear of the battle line as a reserve mobile force.

In addition, the Japanese army dispatched more than 1500 Japanese soldiers and more than [-] puppet troops from the third regiment under the [-]th Division.

The Japanese chariots were too small to cover too many infantry. More than a hundred Japanese soldiers hid behind the chariots.

The group of Japanese troops supported by the [-]st Division did not know the appeasement army. The head of the puppet army's third regiment walked at the end of the offensive sequence, looking enviously at the Japanese troops hiding behind the tanks.

"Commander, the Japanese are obviously making us cannon fodder. You are a commander anyway, or go" a confidant said in a low voice, seeing that the Japanese adviser was not in front of his eyes.

Of course, the head of the puppet army understood what his subordinates meant, so he bravely walked to the squadron headquarters of the Japanese tank squadron, which was also at the end.

"Taijun, Tai."

Before the commander of the puppet army finished his words, unexpectedly, the little devil hiding behind the chariot didn't show any face, and pointed the [-] cover with the bayonet at him: "Baga, the Chinese, you, the dry man over there!" live!"

"Hey, Taijun, I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now!" The commander of the puppet army said with gestures, very embarrassed.

, a group of positions, Jing Dagang was observing with a telescope, seeing the Japanese tanks gradually approaching, his face was very dignified: "Enough of the bombardment, it's our turn, let me order the mountain artillery company to immediately counterattack the enemy artillery , the anti-aircraft guns at the forward position saw the opportunity to kill the little devil's tank!"

As the Japanese infantry advanced, the Japanese artillery began to turn off, trying to shift the artillery positions, and then extended the artillery fire again. At the same time, the mountain artillery company that cooperated with a regiment had been looking for the location of the Japanese artillery positions.

The artillery company commander withdrew his gaze from the artillery mirror, then reported the azimuth parameters, and waited for a long time for the artillerymen to quickly adjust the muzzle.

"All artillery fire six salvos!"

"beat!"

"Tom tom tom!" The six mountain cannons in the position made a dull sound, and six shells pierced the sky one after another, crossed the Japanese army headquarters, and flew towards the Japanese artillery position.

The timing grasped by the artillery company was extremely ingenious. It was at a time when the Japanese artillery had just begun to cease fire and had no power to fight back.

"Baga, hurry up!" The officers on the Japanese artillery position knew that the shells were coming towards them just by hearing the sound.

Boom, boom, several rounds of shells exploded on the Japanese artillery positions. The little devils were extremely dedicated, and the shells exploded around them, still trying to drag the mountain cannon.

Twelve mountain cannons of the Japanese army were blown up one after another. The little devils in the center of the explosion were torn apart by shrapnel, and the little devils on the periphery were blown away by the aftermath of the shell explosion.

Then the ammunition boxes on the Japanese artillery positions exploded, and there was a louder noise. Its power shocked the Japanese and puppet troops who were attacking ahead.

So far, the Eighth Route Army used infantry to withstand the artillery fire of the Japanese army and successfully killed the artillery of the Japanese army.

　There is a mistake. In the previous content, I knew that the Japanese army had tanks, but the regiment did not bring anti-aircraft guns. I will change it later.
