- Chapter 113 The End of the Akita Armored Regiment
Tang Qiuli adjusted the focus and saw clearly that behind the Japanese tank column, about two kilometers away, there was a large group of Japanese cavalry, about seven or eight hundred people, riding tall horses with murderous intent. In the sun, their metal helmets shone. luster.
This is a Japanese cavalry brigade! Tang Qiuli punched a small tree next to him hard. Damn it, did this Japanese cavalry brigade come out of nowhere?
There is no such content in the intelligence of the special forces? It was their negligence. This very important information was not provided in time. This squad leader deserves to die! He must be shot!
Qiuquan arrived in front of him. With a very solemn face and deep worry in his tone, he said to Tang Qiuli: "Xiaoqiu, we just found out that this team of Japanese cavalry is meeting up with the Qiu Armored Regiment at a fork in the road not far ahead. Yes, the special team has just discovered this important situation and reported it immediately."
When no one else was present, Qiuquan still called him by his original name, which made Tang Qiuli always feel a kind of flesh-and-blood affection.
Tang Qiuli understood that this was not the negligence of the reconnaissance team, but an accidental emergency. What should we do now?
Fighting, the battlefield situation has fundamentally changed. The strength of this cavalry brigade alone is almost double that of our own troops. Moreover, this hilly area is very suitable for cavalry charges. Once the Japanese cavalry cannot be completely eliminated, it will be in despair. Still being pursued.
Once the Japanese cavalry breaks through the defensive position, the infantry versus the cavalry, the chance of winning is almost zero. The troops will be entangled, and other nearby Japanese troops will come to reinforce them, making it difficult for the troops to escape.
This is just like what the future marshal of the Republic said: a table of food is prepared and two groups of guests come, how do you eat the meal?
Withdrawing, this means losing the only opportunity to completely annihilate the Akita Armored Regiment. The troops are now on the verge of an arrow, and they cannot achieve the goal of strategically mobilizing the main Japanese forces and gathering them in western South Manchuria.
The goal of this operation is not only to annihilate the Akita Armored Regiment, but more importantly, to gain time and strategic space for the main force to fully launch in the East Manchuria area.
Your own strategic layout will be forced to be modified. How many unknown variables will appear in it? Whether the strategic goal can be achieved in the end is not necessarily known! The troops will be passive in the overall situation.
To fight or not to fight? Tang Qiuli was caught in a dilemma. If he lost an order, his army would be destroyed and he would die!
He was no longer allowed to think any more. The vanguard of the Japanese tanks had already approached the ambush area.
beat! He made up his mind that war has always been a game for the brave. The suddenness of the battle can often determine the outcome of the battle. Use the most ferocious firepower to deal the greatest blow to the enemy and seize the initiative on the battlefield!
After making up his mind, he felt extremely relaxed. He turned his attention to Qiuquan. Qiuquan saw a kind of determination in Tang Qiuli's eyes. His eyes were shining in the sun, a kind of courage. , The perseverance aura spurted out from his body.
When Qiuquan saw Tang Qiuli's look, he already understood. He just nodded slightly and turned around to arrange it. Now that Xiaoqiu had made up his mind, he didn't say anything. Doing your own thing well is the best thing for this younger brother. support.
Tang Qiuli immediately ordered the mortar unit to change the target and bombard the Japanese cavalry with all their strength. They must use the most violent firepower to inflict maximum damage to the enemy.
Then, he ordered the direct guard to set up a machine gun position in front of the mortar unit position to block the Japanese cavalry who attempted to charge, ensuring that the anti-tank gun unit's attack on enemy armored targets was uninterrupted.
The special operations detachment went forward and was responsible for annihilating the Japanese maintenance squadron and baggage squadron, as well as the Japanese armored soldiers who managed to escape.
After the deployment adjustment, the soldiers of the special operations detachment quickly left their original positions and lurked close to the mountain road. The soldiers of the direct guard also set up machine guns one after another and quickly built machine gun bunkers.
There was no one around Tang Qiuli. All the soldiers were at the designated positions. There was only the breeze passing by and the huge roar of the Japanese tanks. He thought for a while, picked up a light machine gun, and fired towards Tang Qiuli. Go directly to the guard's position.
Years later, whenever he recalled the scene of this battle, he felt strange. How could he still hear the wind in that environment? But he never thought it was an illusion, because he really heard it, or to be precise, felt it.
There was a loud "boom", and the earth trembled. The cliff on one side of the mountain road suddenly collapsed, and tons of gravel and sand poured down like a flood that burst the embankment. The entire mountain road was instantly filled, and the Japanese tanks at the front were , there are three?It was completely buried in a mountain of gravel and sand.
The Japanese's march came to an abrupt end. Only the Japanese cavalry behind them galloped forward like crazy. For the galloping cavalry, the distance of two kilometers was reached in an instant, and they soon joined the Japanese armored troops.
The battle started as scheduled, despite unexpected circumstances.
On the silent hills on one side of the mountain road, there were streaks of flames that were still clearly visible even in the sun. They were powerful bullets shot by anti-tank guns.
In the first round of shooting, more than fifty of the Japanese tanks emitted thick smoke, and dark red flames gradually ignited. The Japanese tank soldiers reacted at an astonishing speed. The remaining tanks and armored vehicles quickly locked the location of the attackers, one by one. The turret rotated around, and the black muzzle pointed at the anti-tank gun unit's position.
Tang Qiuli paid close attention to the situation on the entire battlefield. He immediately ordered the anti-tank gun troops to move to the preset positions. The soldiers quickly put away their weapons, and in groups of two, they quickly left the original positions and followed the predetermined plan. Set up shooting points on the preset positions.
Despite this, there were still several groups of soldiers who were hit by Japanese artillery fire, and their bodies were thrown high along with the explosion points, or were torn into pieces by artillery shells.
The intensive artillery fire fired by Japanese tanks and armored vehicles instantly covered the original position. Dust and smoke filled the air, and the entire position was plowed.
The soldiers of the anti-tank gun unit who moved to the preset positions stuck out their tongues, be good! How hanging! He was almost annihilated by the Japanese.
At this time, they sincerely admired the commander's foresight. When they chose three positions yesterday, many soldiers didn't think so. Why bother? Aren't there just over a hundred Japanese tanks and armored vehicles? We have sixty anti-tank guns, one for each gun, which only requires two or three bullets for each person!
The anti-tank guns began the second round of strikes. About sixty more Japanese tanks and armored vehicles were hit. They slumped in place with thick smoke and flames. The tanks and armored vehicles hit in the first round exploded violently, and the compartments of the vehicles exploded. The ammunition that exploded inside made loud noises one after another, and fireballs rose up one by one, blowing each iron turtle to pieces.
Hot steel fragments flew all over the sky, cutting and shredding nearby pine branches, and then rained down again.
After two rounds of strikes, the Japanese armored forces lost two-thirds of their combat effectiveness. In mountainous and forested areas, armored forces are no more than lambs to be slaughtered when encountering anti-armor weapons.
The remaining Japanese tanks and armored vehicles rushed down the mountain road like crazy, firing one after another. The fierce artillery fire covered the previous position again. This time the Japanese fought even more fiercely, firing continuously, venting all their anger to the enemy. , this position caused them heavy losses.
However, this time, the Japs did not take advantage at all. The soldiers were all good at it. After firing a shot, they moved quickly without orders. Before the Japs shells came, they had safely reached the last preset position.
After the first round of anti-tank gun strikes, the Japanese cavalry troops reacted and discovered the location of the ambushers. A Japanese cavalry commander drew out his sharp sword and pointed the blade. The Japanese cavalry rode in battle formation. Rush over.
A burst of mortar shells, like black storks, flew through the sky and landed in the charging formation of the Japanese cavalry. Ocean horses, flying into the air together.
The high-explosive artillery shells developed by the base equipment research institute are no joke. The power of a mortar shell exceeds the power of the Jiazi Mountain Cannon.
However, the charging formation of the Japanese cavalry was very scattered. Although more than a hundred Japanese cavalry were wiped out in this round of shelling, the remaining Japanese cavalry quickly realized that the other side had artillery and immediately opened the distance between them. The charge formation was even more dispersed.
The subsequent shelling was not very effective. Although there were Japanese cavalry from time to time who were knocked down by shells on the way to charge, the killing effect was greatly reduced.
Closer, closer, the sound of the charging horse hooves of the Japanese cavalry beat the ground like a drum, terrifying and heavy. The soldiers directly under the guard could already see the ferocious faces of the Japanese on horseback, and heard the howling of wolves. General shouts, sharp sabers, shining coldly in the sun, carrying the breath of death, came over head and head.
Cavalry charge relies on speed. If the first round of firepower cannot stop the Japanese cavalry, the position will be broken through in an instant.
The first one to fire was Shan Hu. The heavy machine gun in his hand was the first to roar wildly. A tongue of flames composed of fan-shaped ballistics swept the Japanese cavalry charging in the first echelon to the ground like dumplings. In just this moment, Shan Hu fired at least more than a thousand rounds of bullets.
Immediately afterwards, a metal storm suddenlySuddenly, more than fifty light machine guns sprayed out flames and dense bullets, laying down a rain of death bullets on the path of the Japanese cavalry charging. The charging Japanese cavalry could no longer control their speed and were hit in rows. .
The sound of machine gun shooting was indistinguishable, and they were connected together. The soldiers had only one thought in their minds, shoot, keep shooting, and pour out all the bullets in their hands.
"If you look at it from a high altitude, it's like waves of waves, disappearing intimately, and then rising up again. It's just that the waves are made up of living **, and the waves are crushed by deadly metal projectiles.
The firing time was short. The soldiers only had time to finish two magazines. The Japanese cavalry had already rushed to the position. - Didn't finish reading?
