Invincible Base of Anti-japanese War

The billowing smoke and dust from the north moved southward, and it could be clearly seen from eight or nine kilometers away.

After eight kilometers away, the army gradually divided into two parts, one part stayed in the north of the city, and the other part ran to the south of the city.

Looking at this, the commander of the Datong garrison basically understood what his opponent wanted to do.

Chapter 92: Lure the Enemy

Looking at this, the commander of the Datong garrison basically understood what his opponent wanted to do.

They wanted to use this kind of force to surround the whole of Datong. The general of the defenders of Datong laughed that the other party was too arrogant. With an absolutely inferior force, they actually wanted to surround the city of Datong.

Isn't this a chance for me to disperse them to meet each other.

As soon as the general saw this, he hurried down the city wall, ready to let the soldiers gather (bdfj) and go out of the city to fight a field battle.

But Wang Yongji never thought that this might be a trap?

Wang Yongji has been in the army for many years, but he has no experience in fighting mechanized troops at all, so he is destined to fail here.

Not to mention that Wang Yongji went to the city to assemble the army to go out to fight in the field, the mayor Xue Li went to the south of the city to take on the task of luring the enemy, which already made his chief of staff feel very uncomfortable.

The [-]th Division has six regiments, four mechanized infantry regiments, equipped with [-] tracked armored personnel carriers, and some latest [-] tank destroyers, not equipped with such things as tanks , but also has its own artillery unit.

There are also two regiments, one is an artillery regiment and the other is an armored regiment.

Xue Li went to the south of the city this time, and he brought two mechanized infantry regiments and one armored regiment. If he really wanted to fight, in an army without anti-tank weapons, it would not be a problem to kill him three times.

After Xue Li arrived in the south of the city, he began to send telegrams to the troops behind, telling them to speed up their march. The [-]th and [-]th Infantry Division would arrive here in another six to seven hours.

But the Fifth Army can also arrive here in a day. As for the garrison divisions, they can also arrive one after another in the following time.

Master Xue didn't know that his plan to lure the enemy had succeeded. Wang Yongji, an old guy, planned to eat the [-]th Division first, but they might not have such a good mouth.

Xue Li waited in the south of the city, but after a while, the militia groups outside Datong City began to gather, and the gates of Datong City were also opened.

The more than [-] regular army can be said to have come out in full force, and even the more than [-] militias have all been pulled out as cannon fodder.

Looking at the neat formation of the army on the opposite side, it was obvious that they planned to charge in groups.Xue Li couldn't help but feel a little sad. Their combat mode was still before the First World War.

After the First World War, European armies would no longer have such a neat formation, because in front of the machine gun position, there is no difference between using a cluster charge and committing suicide, and it is basically impossible to survive.

However, in China, group charge is still the most mainstream combat method, and until [-], this combat mode still existed.

The Jin army in front of us can be regarded as a strong army in the country, but their combat mode has not changed.

Let's not talk about how Xue Li feels, but now Wang Yongji feels very good about himself, and he has never led so many soldiers.

This time he was destined to show his talents. Wang Yongji saw that it was the Jin army who were getting orderly and tidy, and he followed him out of the city. He felt that this time he might make a great contribution again.

While using words to inspire the combat courage of his army, while dreaming of a bright future, he led this army and embarked on a road of death.

Ask for flowers...ask for the first order....

Chapter 93: Crushing

Wang Yongji can also be regarded as ambitious. He divided the army in his hands into two parts, 28 in the north of the city and [-] in the south of the city.Obviously want to swallow the entire [-]th Division in one go.

After Xue Li saw it, he didn't know what to say. Did he lament that this person was so courageous, or did he say ~ this person is brainless!

Doesn't he know the difference in combat effectiveness between mechanized infantry and traditional infantry?

In fact, Wang Yongji really doesn't know, but unfortunately the price of not knowing is his own life, as well as the **** barrier in the north of Shanxi.

Wang Yongji was sorting out the army over there, and it was impossible for Xue Li to wait here, there was always something to do.

Wang Yongji obviously planned to take the initiative to attack, but Xue Li couldn't do it, so he just waited and let them attack.Although the mechanized infantry division is much stronger than the motorized infantry division in terms of offensive ability, but relying on armored combat vehicles for defense, their ability is not bad.

This [-]-type armored personnel carrier has some design holes on it, and on the roof, there is a [-]mm anti-aircraft machine gun.On the passenger seat, there is also a body machine gun, which uses a [-]mm general-purpose machine gun.

Some mortarers, already out of their own vehicles, are ready to calibrate their artillery and wait for the enemy to come into effective range before they can fire.

As for the [-]mm self-propelled howitzers of each infantry regiment, they have been loaded and ready to fire.

A few armored personnel carriers were left behind to protect the gunners.The remaining armored vehicles began to spread out and prepare to charge forward, intending to disperse the Datong defenders at once.

The scattered infantry could only be massacred in front of these armored vehicles, and there was no other chance at all. The two sides opened up their battles just like that. Xue Li was ready to meet the enemy, and Wang Yongji was also ready to attack.

But the armored personnel carriers gradually moved to the wings, waiting for the order to launch a countercharge, while leaving the armored regiment in the central area, ready to penetrate the front of the Jin army and crush them in one fell swoop.

Wang Yongji's [-] troops are relatively densely distributed, one of which is because of their old combat mode.Another reason is that they also have no place to disperse.

It is only ten kilometers away from the city of Datong, which is completely within the range of the [-]mm howitzer, but the artillery did not fire at all, and the people they were waiting for were far away from the city.

The main reason was fear. After seeing the firepower of the [-]th Division, the Jin army was so scared that they retreated back into the city.

The Jin army has never seen many 105mm howitzers at all. Most of what they usually see and use are 75mm mountain artillery.

However, just the two mechanized infantry regiments here have forty-eight [-]mm self-propelled artillery. When has the Jin army seen such a terrifying firepower density? Will go back to town now.

So first, we can only wait. According to the marching speed, after more than an hour, the two sides can exchange fire.

Wang Yongji didn't stay in the south of the city, he stayed in the north of the city now, because in his opinion, the north of the city should be more important, because he knew that the enemy's reinforcements could only come down from the north.

The Jin army is constantly advancing, ready to go all out and annihilate the invading enemy in front of them first.

But they didn't know what a terrifying thing they were about to face.

An hour and a half passed in a flash, and the Jin army stopped two kilometers in front of the [-]th Division's line. The deputy commander of the Jin army stood in front of his team and began the so-called pre-war mobilization.
