Beacon starts from the departure of a strong man

The large number of casualties shocked Chen Zongjin, Chen Dingxun, and Ji Zhangjian as to why the little devil had become so crazy.

This attack mode is even more brutal than the previous one.

In particular, Ji Zhangjian's troops suffered almost half casualties, and their defense line was smashed to pieces by the Japanese army!

This made Ji Zhangjian hurriedly call the 22nd Army Headquarters and ask for reinforcements to be dispatched as soon as possible, otherwise his troops would be almost exhausted and the gap would not be closed! !

Ji Zhangjian's Sixth Reserve Division is the Central Army. Although they have been training in the rear for half a year, many recruits have seen tanks and armored vehicles for the first time!

Such iron bumps are a great deterrent to recruits. Machine gun and rifle bullets cannot cause substantial damage to tanks and armored vehicles at all!

New recruits were afraid of tanks and armored vehicles, let alone fighting. In addition, the 106th Reserve Division was not equipped with specialized combat artillery. Facing the crazy counterattack of the Japanese th Division, they were suddenly unable to withstand.

Later, after the Japanese 106th Division broke into the defense areas of the 123rd Division and the 125th Division, the attack was slightly delayed.

Because the troops of Chen Dingxun and Chen Zongjin were equipped with a small number of combat anti-aircraft guns, they destroyed three Japanese tanks and armored vehicles.

However, this did not stop the Japanese counterattack. The Japs of the 106th Division did a good job in cooperating with tanks and tanks in the face of the Republic of China army's attempts to destroy tanks and armored vehicles.

Japanese soldiers would frantically cover tanks and armored vehicles. In order to ensure a smooth breakout, some Japanese soldiers would lie on top of the tanks, set up machine guns, and cover the tanks.

The 22nd Army, the Central Army, and the Guangdong Army surrounded and annihilated the Japanese 106th Division. In order to prevent the Japanese from noticing, the Sichuan Army, the Central Army, and the Guangdong Army did not build permanent fortifications in the Wanjialing area.

The temporary fortifications currently constructed cannot stop the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles at all.

After Chen Zongjin, Chen Dingxun, and Ji Zhangjian called each other on the phone, the three of them suddenly discovered that the Japs wanted to break out from the front.

The number of Japanese troops faced by the three of them was at least 20,000 to 30,000.

After getting this data, the three people immediately reported it to Sun Zhen and Xue Yue!

Inside the 22nd Army Headquarters!

Yu Hua looked at this data and was shocked. The little devil's initial goal must be to break through Ji Zhangjian's defense zone.

Xue Yue and Sun Zhen believed in Yu Hua's judgment, and they asked Yu Hua to adjust his combat deployment immediately.

Yu Hua gave orders to Chen Zongjin, Chen Dingxun, and Ji Zhangjian that they could get out of the way of the road and let the Japanese troops pass, but the troops must concentrate their forces to attack the Japanese from the side.

As for the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles, you can let them go first and focus on attacking the Japanese infantry and cavalry!

In addition, Yu Hua immediately ordered the remaining Rao Guohua Division and Bai Changsheng's independent regiment to rush to the Western Front to bite the tail of the Japanese army.

Ji Zhangjian's defense zone allowed at least five to six thousand Japanese troops to rush out. However, the Japanese troops who rushed out did not rush forward. Instead, they built positions to meet the follow-up troops.

At the same time, one of the 91st Divisions of Feng Zhanhai's Northeastern Army was completely killed by the Japanese. Four battalion commanders were killed and one regiment commander was killed. The battle was very fierce.

On the Biandan Mountain position, Guo Xunqi's troops also encountered a counterattack by a Japanese regiment, and the Japs continued to fight like crazy.

Special smoke and high-explosive bombs were constantly thrown at the Sichuan army's position!

After the two sides adjusted their strategic deployment again, Yu Hua, Xue Yue, Sun Zhen and others were also confused by the Japanese army's operations!

Because, in the frontal defense area of ​​Ji Zhangjian Division, the Japanese army attacked in an orderly manner, with tanks and armored vehicles taking the lead. However, in the positions of Feng Zhanhai and Rao Guohua Divisions, the Japanese attack was very chaotic.

What on earth is this little devil playing? !

If the Japanese army is preparing to break through, then the effect of the Japanese army breaking through from the front is very good. With the support of the small Japanese troops, two thousand Japanese soldiers broke through from the front again.

The Japanese troops who broke through the encirclement frontally fought steadily, using combat fortifications to cover the follow-up troops. Grenades and mortars threw special smoke and high-explosive bombs, constantly causing trouble for the incoming Sichuan Army and the Central Army.

However, the front line came again and reported that the Japanese troops outside the encirclement, including a regiment of infantry and a cavalry brigade, were outflanking the retreat of Rao Guohua's division.

This made Yu Hua a little confused. If you want to break out, shouldn't you continue to tear open the frontal defense zone?

Why are you going to surround Rao Guohua Division now? Wouldn't it be better to outflank Feng Zhanhai's Northeastern Army? !

Because the battle had lasted for so long, Feng Zhanhai's Northeastern Army had suffered serious attrition, and its combat effectiveness had dropped dramatically. "Old Xue, what do you think the Japanese army is going to do?" Sun Zhen couldn't understand.

Xue Yue's eyes turned black at this time, and he grinned: "You ask me?"

"Then you might as well ask this old devil Matsuura Junrokuro to see what tricks he is playing!"

Sun Zhen waved his hand: "You can ask Junroku Matsuura, but what else do I ask you for?"

"Aren't you pretty good at bragging in normal times? When it comes to the strategic deployment of the Japanese army, you can understand it just by trying to figure it out."

Seeing Sun Zhen making fun of him, Xue Yue asked: "Don't ask me, you should ask Adjutant Yu. I have heard that Adjutant Yu is known as the little military advisor in the Sichuan Army!"

"When I came to the 22nd Army, I heard many Sichuan Army soldiers say that Adjutant Yu was out of his mind to fight the Japanese."

Yu Hua saw Sun Zhen and Xue Yue, and the quarrel got into his own hands. He was helpless.

The two people looked at him, and he had no choice but to spread his hands and shrug, indicating that he didn't understand either.

When Chen Cheng saw the two of them arguing, he interrupted, "Okay... okay..."

"Let's quickly analyze the situation now and see what the Japanese army is trying to do. We spent so much effort to lure the 106th Division to Wanjialing."

"We must not let these tens of thousands of pigs escape."

Everyone nodded in unison, and Yu Hua stepped forward, "Staff officer, have you contacted the death camp where we sneaked into the Japanese camp?"

Staff Zhang stood up: "No!"

"We have been calling, but have never received a response. From the beginning of the war to now, there is no news from the death camp."

"Adjutant Yu, I suspect that the brothers in the death camp... may have..."

Yu Hua waved his hand, "Keep calling, I believe in the brothers from the death camp."

"Also, have Rao Guohua and Bai Changsheng's troops captured the Japanese follow-up troops?"

"No!" Chief of Staff Zhang sighed: "I just received a message from Commander Rao. The casualties of the troops were quite heavy. The Japanese army's tail was also covered by armored vehicles and tanks."

"Moreover, the little devils threw a large amount of special smoke and high-explosive bombs, causing a lot of casualties to the pursuing troops."

"Coupled with the darkness, it's impossible to tell which is the drug zone and the safe zone."

Hearing this, Sun Zhen punched the table hard: "Damn it!"

"This 106th Division is really scheming. They used so many special cigarettes and high-explosive bombs to break out. They bullied our Sichuan Army and used up all the special cigarettes."

"Otherwise, I will definitely let the troops use special cigarettes again!"

Xue Yue also scolded Junroku Matsuura, an old devil, and Chen Cheng also joined the scolding battle.

Seeing three senior officers greeting his mother from the 106th Division inside the headquarters, Yu Hua immediately stepped aside.

He gathered a group of staff officers and started working on the map. He had to figure out the Japanese army's intentions so that he could adjust the battle plan. (End of chapter)
