Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Rise of China

Set up the Northeast Army

"Master seat, the first company has successfully retreated back. Except for the bodies of a few little devils who specially wore our army uniforms, not even a single bullet was left for the Northeast Army. In the whole battle, there were more than 100 people, one wounded None...>

"Where is the Northeast Army, has our opponent started to move... >

"A forward battalion of the Northeast Army, after occupying the forward position of our army, is following closely behind the first company, and quickly approaching the first line of defense deployed by our army outside the city. Follow-up troops, including the enemy's brigade headquarters, also began to "Approaching" the front line, there is a kind of overwhelming momentum...>

"Well done...Since we are acting for the Northeast Army now, we need to act more realistically. Tell Commander Ye of the 79th Regiment, the first line of defense, be sure to hold on for half an hour. Half an hour Hours later, retreat to the second line of defense...>

"Master, I'll give Commander Ye a personal order right away...>

Compared with the smile on Zhou Xingguo's face, Ding Xichun, commander of the [-]th Brigade, also had a smile on his face because of the news of the victory in the first battle.

Looking at the messy branch on the position, one can tell at a glance that it is the 'corpse of officers and soldiers' abandoned by the Ninth Army.A trace of disdain flashed across Ding Xichun's face.He opened his mouth and said: "This is the fighting power of the Ninth Army. It doesn't even take away the corpses of its comrades. I really don't know. How can such an army take down thousands of little devils at Lushunkou...>

Chief of Staff Chen Dongqun seemed to know a lot.Facing Brigadier Ding Xichun, he explained with certainty: "Brigade, the reason why the Ninth Army was able to take Lushunkou must be due to their sharp artillery fire. If you give me tens of thousands of shells from the Eighth Brigade, all of them will be destroyed. Enter Lushunkou, my Eighth Brigade can also successfully take down the thousands of Japanese troops at Lushunkou..."

"As for why the Ninth Army has such unbearable battles. If my guess is correct, it must be caused by their continuous expansion of troops. According to my knowledge, the Ninth Army started from an ordinary infantry regiment. It was quickly expanded within one year. Even if their old troops, that is, the strength of a regiment, have combat experience against the Japanese army, and their combat effectiveness is strong. However, after such a large-scale expansion, how much can each army get? Veterans. Therefore, after continuous expansion, the combat effectiveness of the troops will be weakened, that is for sure...>

Chief of Staff Chen Dongqun's words.Immediately, the brigade commander Ding Xichun's inner judgment was strengthened.The troops of the Ninth Army in front of them were not as powerful as they had imagined.That being the case, it may be no problem to take back Lushunkou from the Ninth Army with only one brigade in his own hands.

Think here.A trace of sharp edge and anticipation quickly flashed across the brigade commander Ding Xichun's face.Facing Chief of Staff Chen Dongqun, who was already a little eager to try.Resolutely ordered: "Old Chen, immediately issue the latest combat order to the 622 regiment: the troops will launch an attack immediately, and take down the first line of defense of the Ninth Army in front of them with lightning speed... >

"Yes, Traveler...>

Standing in front of the Northeast Army was the 79st Battalion of the [-]th Regiment under Zhou Xingguo. Although the entire line of defense was only as strong as one battalion.However, this battalion is definitely comparable to an infantry regiment of the Northeast Army in terms of firepower... >

The whole battalion is equipped with 82 9mm caliber medium mortars, 60 9mm small mortars, 9 heavy machine guns, 30 light machine guns, [-] submachine guns, [-] various rifles...>

With such powerful firepower equipment, Battalion Commander Liu Xiandong is confident that he will be able to deal a fatal blow to the Northeast Army's offensive troops on the opposite side during the half-hour hold.

Seeing the main force of the Northeast Army densely packed one kilometer in front of the position, Liu Xiansheng not only did not show any worried expression on his face, but was shrouded in excitement.As for the three company commanders who were lying next to Liu Xiansheng, all three faces, without exception, were covered with expectant expressions.

"Battalion Commander, the first battle of this blocking battle must be handed over to my company...>

After the words fell, the other two company commanders began to invite the battle, not to be outdone.As for battalion commander Liu Xiandong, the smile on his face remained unchanged from the beginning to the end.He didn't speak until the three subordinates stopped arguing and waited for him to come up with the final decision.

"Okay, why are you arguing, the whole half-hour blocking battle, I promise, everyone has a share... >

Speaking of this, Battalion Commander Liu Xiandong seemed to have thought of something.The conversation changed, and he said with a serious face: "However, when you are actually fighting, you have to take it easy. In order to better complete the task assigned to us by the division seat, we must repel the blocking battle later. Enemy, hold the position, but you can't beat the enemy too hard, and scare them. As for how to control this speed, it depends on you. In order not to expose our powerful firepower in advance, except for mortars Outside, the first one in a row...>

"Yes, Battalion Commander..."

The First Battalion of the 622nd Regiment of the Eighth Brigade of the Northeast Army counted the attack 10 minutes ago, although the troops lost more than 50 people.However, such a loss not only did not hurt the first battalion, but instead aroused the first battalion's desire for victory and the entire battlefield.Especially after occupying the forward position of the Ninth Army and getting a reward of one ocean per person.It directly made the remaining hundreds of officers and soldiers of the first battalion think that the Ninth Army standing in front of them was vulnerable.In order to get more rewards and more oceans, you must take the lead, rush to the forefront of the troops, and grab the next main attack task.

The attack order has not yet been issued from the mouth of the head of the 622 regiment, and the request of the head of the first battalion to fight.Just spread throughout the 622 regiment...[

The first battalion won the first battle and took the lead in the entire military operation.It is impossible for the other battalion commanders not to be jealous.However, jealousy is jealousy, and these battalion commanders did not lose their minds because of this.

To capture the forward position of the Ninth Army, the whole battle seemed to be going smoothly and smoothly.However, in any case, the defenders deployed by the opponent in the forward position only had the strength of one company.Use a battalion to attack a blocking position with only a company in field combat.In the eyes of the other two battalion commanders, they are also very confident that they can win the forward position.

However, the two battalion commanders did not have that much confidence in the attack that was about to erupt in front of them.After all, so far, I don't know the distribution of the opponent's forces and the equipment of the troops.If you attack rashly, you will suffer.Undoubtedly myself.Since the first battalion is rushing to get this main attack mission, I will help everyone to test the specific situation of the blocking position in front of us. Of course the two battalion commanders will not stop...>

In this way, when he took the initiative to ask for a fight and was instigated by the other two battalion commanders.The task of attacking the first wave of frontline positions once again fell into the hands of the first battalion.

"Brothers. The Tuan Zuo said that for this attack, whoever is the first to rush to the opponent's position will be rewarded with ten yuan for Dayang. Others, as long as they successfully rush to the position, each will be rewarded with two yuan for Dayang. Now I order, heavy machine gun Cover. The whole battalion forms a skirmisher line attack formation and begins to attack...>

A battalion of more than 400 people suddenly became a dense offensive formation with a frontal width of more than 200 meters and a depth of more than eight rows.Mighty, like a dusty gray wave, under the cover of several flames behind him, it slowly pressed towards the first battalion.

Just like the attack just now, at the position of 500 meters, the defenders of the position did not move at all...>

Of course, when the gunshots sounded, the remaining offensive troops of the Northeast Army, as if they had rehearsed in advance, bent themselves even lower.Of course, the charging route has also changed from the straight line just now to the current 's' curve.

The offensive formation changed, and the gunshots from the blocking position also became chaotic.However, what all the attacking troops of the Northeast Army did not expect was that although the continuous sound of gunfire on the battlefield was messy, the accuracy of each bullet had changed drastically compared with the battle more than ten minutes ago .

On the short offensive road, almost every meter advanced, a soldier of the Northeast Army would fall on the assault road.

In the blink of an eye, the 622st Battalion of the 79nd Regiment of the Northeast Army lost more than a hundred troops without knowing it.On the defensive position, the company commander of the first battalion and first company of the [-]th regiment of the Ninth Army took advantage of the Northeast Army's underestimation of the enemy to give the opponent a "boiled frog in warm water".Let the opponent consume the limited strength of the opponent bit by bit without knowing the pain... >

150 meters away, the commander of the 622st Battalion of the enemy's 400nd Regiment, still full of confidence, believes that as long as the troops work harder and face themselves who are close at hand, the Ninth Army in front of them will definitely be like that just now, when they collapse without a fight . Of the more than 300 offensive troops, there are less than 300 left.Looking at the entire attack road, starting from the position of 150 meters, there are already more than [-] corpses scattered in various poses.

Of course, these phenomena were impossible for the battalion commander who was focused on looking ahead and thinking about victory.

"Brothers, work harder, the enemy is about to collapse... >

"Kill...>

"Light and heavy machine gunners, don't save me ammunition, aim at the Northeast Army in front of you, hit hard, and fire...>

At the order of the company commander, more than a dozen machine gunners, ignoring the oppressive flames fired by the Northeast Army above their heads, directly pointed the muzzles of the black holes, all of them aimed at the enemies who were already close at hand.

The gunshots rang out, and dozens of tongues of flame were like dozens of gods of death specialized in harvesting the lives of the enemies.Wherever the flames went, the officers and soldiers of the Northeast Army were densely packed, without exception, they were all beaten with blood holes all over their bodies and fell into a pool of blood.

The sudden sound of intensive machine gun fire and the screams of officers and soldiers around him finally woke up the battalion commander from his dream.You can clearly see the front, back, left, and right, each one is like making dumplings.The subordinates who were repeatedly shot and fell to the ground.Seeing around, unconsciously.More than half of the troops have been lost.

While the battalion commander was in a daze, he couldn't help but thump in his heart, and subconsciously let out an exclamation: "No, we were fooled. Retreat, retreat immediately...>

There were more than 400 officers and soldiers in a main battalion, and there were only less than 150 people left including the battalion commander who were lucky enough to withdraw from the battlefield.As for the rest.Without exception, all turned into corpses...>

"It seems that our opponents are not all a group of recruits... >

"Brigade, even so, this main battalion can't stop our Northeast Army's offensive pace. As long as we continue to increase our firepower, we will exhaust the enemy's limited elite. Then, the gate leading to Lushunkou. Let's start." Chief of Staff Chen Dongqun, didn't lose his courage because of a failed attack, and continued to speak expectantly.

"You are right. Order the 622 regiment to continue the offensive. When the time is right. I will order the artillery battalion directly under the brigade headquarters to participate in the battle...>

"Yes. Brigadier...>

When the brigade commander Ding Xichun, encouraged by the chief of staff Chen Dongqun, ordered the troops to continue to attack.What he didn't know was that as the defense lines deployed by the 27th Division outside Dalian City fell one by one, Ding Xichun's independent Eighth Brigade had unknowingly fallen into a trap set by Zhou Xingguo for him.

The 622st Battalion of the 5nd Regiment had just withdrawn from the battlefield in less than 79 minutes.Because of the tentative attack of the first battalion, the second battalion had already "found out" the specific situation of the front-line positions of the [-]th regiment under Zhou Xingguo.About [-] Northeast troops walked out of their positions again, lined up in offensive formation, and prepared to launch a new round of attacks.

"Boom boom boom... >

The explosion sounded, and the shells from all directions, as if they had eyes, landed very precisely on a camp and exploded.However, what Ding Xichun didn't expect was that a battalion of officers and soldiers guarding the position had already hidden in simple anti-blasting holes, waiting for the shelling to end.

Of course, Liu Xiandong, the commander of the first battalion, was not the one who was beaten passively.The 18 mortars under the whole battalion were divided into three by him, and after they were all erected, they directly started a targeted counterattack.

1 minutes, 2 minutes... >

Looking at the Northeast Army's offensive troops getting closer and closer to him in front of the position, the commander of the second company quickly put down his binoculars.Picking up a rifle, he shouted loudly at his subordinates.

"Brothers, through our own actions, the First Company has wiped out almost a battalion of the Northeast Army. Tell me, can our Second Company destroy a battalion of the enemy...>

"Can...>

"Very well, since that's the case, everyone cheers me up for the battle later... >

"Heavy machine gun, rifleman, once the enemy enters the 300-meter position, hit me hard... >

Mortars, heavy machine guns, light machine guns, rifles, submachine guns, and grenades that are perfect for close combat.The entire fight lasted less than 10 minutes.The [-] officers and soldiers of the Second Battalion had to rush out of the battlefield like a flood because of the heavy losses of the troops.

It wasn't until the third round of attack that the 79th Regiment's [-]st Battalion and [-]rd Company defending the position successfully wiped out [-] enemy troops before pretending to be a rout and abandoning their position.Of course, while abandoning the position, a large number of corpses of little devils wearing the uniform of the Ninth Army were left in the blocking position without any accident, serving as the results of the Northeast Army... >

In half an hour, Zhou Xingguo's first line of defense outside the city was broken by Ding Xichun.Excited and arrogant Ding Xichun, without the slightest hesitation, led his troops towards the second line of defense of the Ninth Army outside the city of Dalian...>

Two hours later, Zhou Xingguo deployed the second line of defense outside the city, but Ding Xichun broke through again... >

Ding Xichun's independent eighth brigade, after paying a huge price of almost 2000 casualties, finally appeared on the third line of defense with high spirits, engaged in a military confrontation with the 79th regiment, and prepared to launch a new round of offensive.

It is less than five kilometers away from Dalian, and you can see the situation in the city just through a telescope.The detour troops of Zhou Xingguo's two regiments have already surrounded the [-] remnants of Ding Xichun's command...>
