I am helping

Chapter 781 Desperate!
At this time, Kong Jie didn't care about those airdrops.

The airdrop will not run away by itself, you can come back to pick it up at any time, but the devil will run away.

Now is the best chance to defeat the troops stationed in Mongolia.

Although the two artillery regiments of the Devils had not opened fire, the Devils dispatched more than 8000 troops and more than one tank regiment of tanks, and were defeated.

At this time, the morale of the devils stationed in Mongolia was low and they suffered heavy losses.

The fighter jets are fleeting.

As an excellent commander, Kong Jie naturally would not let go of such an opportunity.

If the devils stationed in Mongolia were allowed to escape, especially the 3rd Japanese tank division, Li Yunlong would definitely scold Kong Jie the next time he saw Kong Jie.

Following Kong Jie's order, the Eighth Route Army's artillery firepower and howitzer firepower bombarded the devils in depth.

4个山炮营和1个105毫米榴弹炮营，以及1个150毫米榴弹炮营，200多门火炮，向鬼子的区域开炮。

Boom boom boom...

In the area where the main force of the Japanese army stationed in Mongolia was concentrated, dense and violent explosion waves rose up, and the devils fled in a hurry to avoid the impact of the explosion waves accompanied by sweeping shrapnel in all directions.

A 150mm howitzer hit a [-] truck loaded with shells.

The violent explosion rose suddenly, and the smoke of the explosion rose up layer by layer like a mushroom cloud, and the parts of the car fell down along with the fragments of the devil.

Tanks were parked around preparing to attack, and they were also attacked by shells.

Even a 75mm shell, hitting the tank from the top of the turret, can cause kill and damage to the tank.

From time to time, devil cars and tanks were hit by dense shells.

A sharp scream sounded, and a 105mm howitzer attacked the position near the headquarters of the Mongolian Army.

"Your Excellency, be careful!"

It was too late to say it, and then it was too late, and several combat staff officers crushed Amakasu Shigetaro under them in an instant.

boom……

A violent explosion rose from outside the headquarters. The explosion was accompanied by violent shock waves, shrapnel swept across, and soil and gravel splashed.

A road of soil fell from the gap above the head of the headquarters, onto the map on the table, and onto Amakasu Shigetaro and others.

Outside the headquarters, a large pit with a diameter of more than one meter appeared.

"Ba Ga, press the road!"

Amakasu Shigetaro stood up, his face became extremely ugly, as if he had been humiliated.

Since the establishment of the Mongolian Army, it has never suffered such a big loss.

If the artillery shell had been shot to the left and shifted more than 20 meters just now, it would have hit the headquarters of the Garrison Mongolian Army.

However, the shell just now was obviously a stray bullet.

The artillery observers of the Eighth Route Army obviously did not know that this was the headquarters of the Mongolian Army.

Otherwise, hundreds of cannons will definitely bombard here together.

From time to time, shells fell near the headquarters of the Mongolian Army, and the deafening roar continued.

A combat staff officer said hurriedly: "Your Excellency, this place is too dangerous, please leave here quickly."

However, Amakasu Shigetaro pushed the combat staff officer away, and ordered coldly:
"Order the artillery observers who observe the balloons to immediately report the distance and azimuth of the artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army. The 26th Mountain Artillery Regiment and the artillery regiment of the 3rd Tank Division will counter-suppress the artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army!"

At this time, Amakasu Shigetaro had not conceded defeat.

Even if the artillery firepower of the Eighth Route Army is strong, even if the planes are expelled, Amakasu Shigetaro still believes that the Mongolian Army still has a chance of winning.

The main force of the 3rd Tank Division has not yet been dispatched, nor has Issaku Nishihara's anti-tank brigade.

The locust army still has a chance of winning.

However, a violent explosion exploded overhead, Amakasu Shigetaro walked out of the headquarters and hurriedly looked up.

The observation balloon, which had risen to an altitude of several hundred meters, was smashed to pieces by anti-aircraft guns, and two artillery observers were falling rapidly.

Although the Eighth Route Army's 37mm anti-aircraft guns and 20mm machine guns could not hit the devil's observation balloon.

However, the 88mm anti-aircraft gun equipped with a proximity fuze can be hit.

When the devil's observation balloon was raised, the devil's plane arrived, so the 88mm anti-aircraft gun did not fire.

Now that the devil's plane was expelled, 12 88mm anti-aircraft guns fired at the devil's observation balloon in the air.

Only one round of shelling knocked down the devil's observation balloon.

"Baga, large-caliber anti-aircraft gun!"

Seeing this scene, Amakasu Shigetaro almost turned his nose with anger.

Without artillery observers, the Japanese artillery positions could not carry out counter-suppression against the artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army.

The artillery observers of the Eighth Route Army had already occupied the surrounding commanding heights, guiding the artillery of the Eighth Route Army to fire at the Japanese positions unscrupulously.

Taking a deep breath, Amakasu Shigetaro suddenly looked at the communication staff officer: "Immediately notify Lieutenant General Mitsuo Nakazawa of the 1st Division that our army stationed in Mongolia will carry out a general offensive against the Eighth Route Army. Please launch a full-scale counterattack with the 1st Division!"

"Hi!"

The communications staff suddenly turned around and walked towards the telegraph with the call function.

……

In the city of Datong.

1st Division Headquarters.

"Reporting to the head of the division, the communication staff officer of the Mongolian Army Command sent a call."

"Commander Amakasu Shigetaro, commander of the Garrison in Mongolia, asked our troops to launch a full-scale counterattack against the Eighth Route Army in Datong City!"

Taro Changjiangguchi, the staff officer, reported to Mitsuo Nakazawa.

Sanfu Zhongze's expression changed: "Is the Mongolian Army going to fight the Eighth Route Army?"

Although on the city wall, you can watch the battle between the Mongolian Army in the north of the city and the Eighth Route Army through binoculars or artillery mirrors.

But now the city wall is occupied by the Eighth Route Army, and the 1st Division's attack on the city wall failed.

The previous 1st Division's attack on the city wall was tentative, and did not show the full strength of the 1st Division.

So only a few hundred people died in the 1st Division.

The Mongolian Army did its best, and after two rounds of fighting with the Eighth Route Army, the Mongolian Army lost almost a chariot regiment and more than 5000 casualties.

"should be."

Eguchi Taro nodded, and analyzed solemnly:
"Judging from the sound of the artillery, the artillery of the Eighth Route Army has been firing, but the artillery of the Mongolian Army has not fired."

"The main force of the Mongolian Army should have been suppressed by the Eighth Route Army."

"At this time, only by relying on the torrent of steel from the 3rd Chariot Division can the Mongolian Army have a chance to defeat the main force of the Eighth Route Army."

Sanfu Nakazawa was suspicious: "Can the 3rd Tank Division of the Mongolian Army defeat the tanks of the Eighth Route Army?"

"It's hard to say!" Eguchi Taro said uncertainly, "Although the Eighth Route Army doesn't have many tanks, their tanks are very powerful, with good maneuverability, high defense, and strong firepower. The locust army's tanks should not be opponents, but I heard that Both the Mongolian Army and the 1st Army have recently obtained a batch of anti-tank weapons that can penetrate 150 mm thick tank armor, and the Mongolian Army should also carry these anti-tank weapons in this battle."

Mitsuo Nakazawa's expression changed: "An anti-tank weapon that can penetrate 150 mm thick tank armor?"

If only the Locust Army could have anti-tank weapons that could penetrate 150mm thick tank armor.

The Mongolian Army really has a chance to defeat the Eighth Route Army.

If the tank troops of the Eighth Route Army were wiped out, the 3rd Tank Division would definitely be able to sweep the Eighth Route Army in the terrain around Datong.

Eguchi Taro's tone was affirmative: "Yes!"

"Yo Xi!" Mitsuo Nakazawa's expression shocked, "Order the 6nd Battalion of the 2th Heavy Artillery Regiment to prepare to aim and shoot directly at the north city wall. After the city wall is blown down, the infantry will immediately attack the city wall!"

"For this attack, we must take down the city wall, go out and attack the Eighth Route Army on both sides with the Mongolian Army."

"Once our 1st Division joins the Mongolian Army, the Eighth Route Army will no longer be our opponent."

Mitsuo Nakazawa spoke confidently.

"Hi!"

Eguchi Taro suddenly nodded, and turned around to arrange artillery and infantry, ready to attack the north wall.

The counterattack of the 1st Division is naturally impossible like the attack of the Eighth Route Army, where the four walls are the main attack.

Instead, the remaining three sides were feint attacks, and the main direction of attack was the north city wall. After all, the main battlefield of the Mongolian army and the main battlefield of the Eighth Route Army were just outside the north city wall.

……

"Captain."

In the Kong Jie headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, the communication staff reported:

"Just now the Japanese Army Command in Mongolia and the staff of the 1st Division Command spoke on the phone."

"The main force of the Mongolian army is about to launch a full-scale offensive, so that the 1st Division will simultaneously launch a full-scale counterattack."

"There is no clear timing of the attack."

"The devil wants to counterattack?"

Hearing this information, Kong Jie's eyes lit up.

Under such a powerful bombardment, the devils stationed in Mongolia did not run away, but counterattacked.

The devil's abnormal behavior was somewhat beyond Kong Jie's expectation.

This devil stationed in the Mongolian army seems to have a bit of a head.

Could it be that the devil is playing some conspiracy?
However, in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy of the devil is futile.

When the main force of the Devils' garrison in Mongolia arrived in the morning, Kong Jie did not rush forward and ordered the troops to attack immediately.

Kong Jie's tactical command style is mainly based on stability.

Waiting for the devils stationed in Mongolia to take the initiative to attack, the Eighth Route Army is the most stable tactic.

Wait until all the devil's hole cards are played, and then play the trump card in his hand, strike hard, and defeat the devil's main force in one fell swoop.

"The artillery groups continued to shell the devils in depth."

Kong Jie gave the order:
"Order the cavalry battalion of the independent regiment and the cavalry battalion of the new second regiment to outflank the left and right wings, and the infantry followed the tanks to rush through the middle."

"Pay attention to the coordination of infantry and tanks and artillery tanks, and don't hurt your own people."

"Also, inform Commander Ding that the devils from the 1st Division are about to counterattack, so let him prepare for battle."

The Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment also had tank units.

But mainly the tanks of the devils were seized, and the number was very small.

In terms of infantry and tank coordination, the infantry of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment are not at the same level as the infantry of the New First Regiment.

"Yes!"

The chief of staff of the independent regiment quickly issued an order.

……

Garrison Command.

"Order the 3rd Chariot Division and the 26th Regiment of the Independent Infantry of the 11th Division to launch a general attack on the Eighth Route Army!"

In the headquarters, Amakasu Shigetaro looked crazy, like a gambler, and issued a combat order.

At this time, if there is no counterattack, you will either be bombarded in situ, or retreat to Mongolia to the north.

In just over ten minutes, the Eighth Route Army artillery bombarded the Mongolian army in depth, and at least more than a thousand soldiers were killed by the artillery shells.

This kind of bombardment, which is similar to artillery coverage, can only be played by the wealthy Eighth Route Army.

In the film and television drama, the power of the shells is greatly weakened.

In fact, on the real battlefield, most of the soldiers who died in battle were killed by shells.

The side with the advantage of artillery firepower often has an advantage on the battlefield and has the initiative on the battlefield.

Now that the Eighth Route Army has received air-dropped supplies again, the shells seem endless, and they can only wait for death if they stay here, so it is better to give it a go.

The 2nd Brigade had suffered heavy losses in the previous waves of attacks, and was no longer able to attack with tanks.

Now it is the turn of the main force of the 26th Division.

"Hi!"

The combat staff officer suddenly lowered his head, turned around and grabbed the phone, and quickly sent an order.

Following the order issued by the Command of the Garrison in Mongolia.

The remaining nearly 3 tanks of the 300rd Tank Division quickly formed an attack formation during the shelling and rushed towards the Eighth Route Army.

There are densely packed diced tanks, the tracks make a metallic sound of crunching, and the engine roars.

Watching this scene in the headquarters, Amakasu Shigetaro nodded in satisfaction, like a torrent of steel.

Behind the tank, followed by Japanese soldiers holding Molotov cocktails and Type [-] anti-tank sting mines.

Behind the anti-tank infantry is a bowed waist, holding a [-]-style rifle, showing a multi-layer skirmish line, and advancing cautiously.

The artillery observers of the Eighth Route Army have apparently discovered the tank attack formation on the Japanese side.

Already directing artillery to shell the torrent of Japanese armor.

However, due to the Japanese infantry and armored units, scattered in the area of ​​​​a few kilometers in front, they were scattered widely.

Even with the full firepower of the six artillery battalions of the Eighth Route Army, although they could occasionally hit the devil's tanks, the threat was not great.

at this time.

The attack formation composed of more than 80 Leopard tanks and Xiafei tanks of the Eighth Route Army has already crossed the Eighth Route Army's position and rammed towards the Devil tanks.

200 meters behind the tank, followed the brigade of Eighth Route Army infantry.

At the same time, the cavalry battalions of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment had entered the attack position, preparing to go around to the rear of the Devils' tank troops to harvest the heads of the Devils' infantry.

The Mongolian Army has a cavalry group, the main force is the 1st Cavalry Brigade, with a strength of more than 5000 people.

But right now the main force of the 1st Cavalry Brigade is in Taiyuan.

The main force of the reinforcements stationed in Mongolia this time, although there are some cavalry, but not many, mainly reconnaissance cavalry.

"Your Excellency, Commander!"

"The chariot troops of the Eighth Route Army have appeared!"

In the headquarters of the Garrison Mongolian Army, a combat staff officer responsible for watching the situation on the battlefield reported to the commander of the Garrison Mongolian Army Shigetaro Amakasu.

"Oh?"

Amakasu Shigetaro walked quickly to the artillery mirror, and looked forward through the sight of the artillery mirror.

I saw that the tanks of the Eighth Route Army had crossed the position of the Eighth Route Army, forming a formation and firing at the oncoming Locust Army tanks.

From time to time, the tanks of the Locust Army were hit and caught fire, but the 47mm tank guns of the Locust Army could hardly cause damage to the tanks of the Eighth Route Army.

"The tanks of the Eighth Route Army are really powerful!"

Seeing this scene, Amakasu Shigetaro spoke solemnly:
"Order, the 26th Mountain Artillery Regiment and the Artillery Regiment of the 3rd Tank Division immediately fire smoke bombs at the tank area of ​​the Eighth Route Army."

"Hi!"

The combat staff officer gave the order immediately.

Amakasu Shigetaro thought to himself that as long as the vision of the tank drivers of the Eighth Route Army is blocked, the tanks of the Eighth Route Army will become blind.

The locust army's tanks can lead the anti-tank brigade to reach the tanks of the Eighth Route Army.

The Type [-] anti-tank thorn thunder will teach the tanks of the Eighth Route Army to be human.
