Chapter 1509 Counterattack
The crisis has become an opportunity, and it is a pity to let it go.Liu Yuqing and Pang Deya briefly discussed a few words, and they both felt that this was an opportunity to expand the results of the battle. Liu Yuqing called Jiang Guangnai and asked for instructions to take advantage of the situation to capture Cangnan.Jiang Guangnai pondered for a while, then replied: "The several guerrilla columns in southwest Zhejiang have been standing still, and it's time for them to attack. The strength of the South China Front Army's attack on Fuding has bottomed out, and now the air supremacy is also in our hands. The fleet hasn't recovered yet, hit him hard!"

There are eight guerrilla columns in southwestern Zhejiang, with a strength of about 6000 people. Although the weapons and equipment are not good, they have a lot of experience in harassment warfare because they have been playing cat and mouse games with the South China Front Army at the forefront.The morale of the Japanese army was defeated and the morale was low, and the regular army was holding back from the front. The guerrilla column beat the dog in the water. If it played well, it might really become a key force to stabilize the situation in southwestern Zhejiang.

Liu Yuqing: "Okay. Let's keep an infantry regiment and an artillery regiment in Guanmei, and the other troops will pursue. Mr. Jiang, there is no problem along the coast of southern Fujian, right? Although the air power of the United Fleet has been severely damaged, they have many gunboats. Prevent the sneak attack of other marines."

"There is no need to worry about this. The United Fleet is a toothless tiger without a fighter plane. Now Yamamoto 56 should be worried about the sneak attack of the Iron Commander! There is one thing you should pay attention to. You must get the list of officers above the captain of the 6th Division. , the matter in Cangnan is endless!"

"Yes!"

The 6nd Special Artillery Brigade showed off its power again, and the [-]th Brigade of the Japanese Army was almost wiped out. Ichiro Oku called to report to Iwane Matsui. Only then did the old devil understand what was going on with the continuous explosions before.Holding the microphone and quietly listening to Oku Ichiro's report on the situation on the front line, the old devil forced himself to restrain himself and thought for a while, then ordered: "The army of students is strong, retreat for now! Let's retreat first, you follow up."

Matsui Iwane did not expect the New Year's strategy to be like this.And he also had a hunch that after this battle, his position as the commander of the South China Front Army might not be guaranteed.Putting down the phone, he gave an order for the entire army to retreat. While the staff officers were sorting out documents and packing their luggage, the old devil walked out of the headquarters and stood in the yard looking northwest. A few minutes later, he suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood.

From the beginning when he became the commander of the Central China Front Army, and later became the commander of the South China Front Army, Matsui Iwane worked hard and worked hard, but in the end he was defeated again and again by the Xuebing Army. The old devil is also a self-respecting person, knowing that his health is not good , always thinking about winning a good game and going back to China.But things backfired. The old devil had endured in Zhejiang for so long, waiting to draw a perfect end to his military career, but the result——

About a brigade of devils from the troops directly under the South China Front Army Headquarters was packing up and preparing to retreat. Watching the beauty of the front line, the shelling of the Xuebing Army finally stopped.The Second Special Artillery Brigade sealed the victory with just one salvo, while Wang Hai and the others continued to bombard for about half an hour.With the accurate data provided by the frontier scouts, the shells fired by the artillerymen of the Xuebing Army flew towards places where the devils were dense, as if they had eyes. Under this fixed-point bombardment similar to surgery, the Japanese army suffered heavy casualties. Two infantrymen The brigade, a tank regiment, and a cavalry regiment, in the end, only about 3000 people survived the artillery fire.Although Masaki Inoue and Masao Maruyama later figured out why the enemy's shells landed so accurately, they no longer had the ability to go to the mountains to clear out those blatant scouts from the Tenth Division.

The evacuation order was issued, and the 6th Chariot Wing relied on wheels to travel and ran fast.In the end, more than 6 tanks and more than ten armored vehicles escaped successfully.The 6th Infantry Brigade suffered the heaviest casualties because it was always under the artillery fire of the Xuebing Army. In the end, including the brigade commander Masao Maruyama, only more than [-] people fled to Fengchi Township in despair.As for the headquarters of the [-]th Division, because of the important care of Wang Hai's First Kong Division, and because of Gu Hisao's vicious methods, he became the key target of the students.In order to protect Hisao Tani, Masaki Inoue successively left the few troops left in his hands to snipe the pursuers, and in the end only more than [-] people escaped.

The Japanese army was completely defeated. The 25th Xue Division invested two regiments of infantry and two regiments of self-propelled artillery. The Second Fujian Guard Division invested all the artillery regiments except Machun. The Second Special Artillery Brigade supported a battalion of "Thunderbolt". More than a thousand people fought with the army, and Wang Hai's First Air Division launched [-] fighter planes to participate in the battle. A huge pursuit battle began.

The first one to make meritorious service was naturally Wang Hai's Kong Yi Division.Wang Hai sent his fighter planes into battle in batches of five, chasing Japanese chariot units and cavalry units. 25 fighter planes attacked the ground one after another. More than [-] Japanese soldiers were killed and wounded. Was wounded.This time, the high officials of the Devils no longer dared to ride armored vehicles or ride horses.

The No.11 Air Corps of the Japanese Army had already been severely damaged, and the total number of remaining fighters was less than two brigades.Now that the southern front troops of the South China Front Army have been ruthlessly ravaged by the First Air Division, Matsui Iwane worried that the Xuebing Army Air Force would carry out endless air strikes, so he sent a telegram to Yokoyama Zongsheng, telling him to take off fighter planes to fight anyway.Hengshan Zongsheng had no choice but to fly all the remaining fourteen fighters of various types, and let them go to Cangnan to cover the retreat of Matsui Ishigen.

On the way back to the airport to replenish the ammunition of the First Air Division, Wang Hai provided Liu Yuqing with the position of the Japanese army. Liu Yuqing commanded Wang Hai and Liang Wenhui to shell the Japanese army, and gave Oku Ichiro's 5th Division a head-on blow with a 9-minute rapid fire.Oku Ichiro's 9th Division was originally the most well-organized force among the southern front troops of the South China Front Army. After this round of rapid fire, at least a thousand people were killed, and the troops dispersed at once.Because the armored vehicle he was riding in was overturned and his right leg was injured, Oku Ichiro was unable to move. He was retreated on a stretcher carried by several devils.He realized that if things go on like this, the southern front troops may even be in danger of annihilation, so he ordered the two brigades under the 19th Infantry Regiment under his command to stay to stop the enemy.Oku Ichiro's doing this can be regarded as bearing the burden of humiliation for the sake of the overall situation, but he underestimated the attacking firepower of the chasing troops of the Xuebing Army.

The leader of the 19th Regiment sees Hideo Sanzo personally as the commander of the sniper attack on the Japanese army. He just set up his formation in Xiaojiang Town, three kilometers east of Cangnan. The words were lined up, and under the command of the battalion commander Zuo Liang, the next round of salvos was fired, and the hastily established defense line was instantly wiped out.Hitomi Xiusan was also decisive, realizing that if he sticks to the base, he will only become a target for the artillerymen of the Xuebing Army. Advantages are not utilized.

Under the current circumstances, it is undoubtedly the most appropriate for Hitomi Hidezomi to do so.But he underestimated the ability of the student army in close combat.The continuous firing performance of the Weiqing-style assault rifle determines that the Xuebing Army is most afraid of this kind of counter attack. Therefore, Hitomi Hideo, who was placed high hopes by Oku Ichiro, was defeated by the Xuebing Army in less than 10 minutes. ——At this time, in front of the Japanese army, the guerrillas of the Xuebing Army in Southwest Zhejiang began to join the battlefield.
