- Chapter 275: Leave money to buy the way
The temporary field fortifications of the Japanese Yamaguchi Brigade were well built. In just a few hours, they had firepower points, foxholes, trenches, traffic ditches, departure assembly positions, and artillery positions. Regardless of their aggressive nature, the individual combat capabilities of Japanese soldiers were top-notch in Asia at the time.
It's a pity that what they met in North China was Tang Qiuli, a weirdo who came to this world with rich historical knowledge. He knew the Japanese army's offensive routine very well. He first bombarded the opponent's position with fierce artillery fire, and then organized soldiers , launched a fierce and uninterrupted continuous charge.
The charge failed, and the charge was repeated. After several times of this, the defenders' strength and ammunition were almost exhausted, and how could they hold the position? In fact, Tang Qiuli wanted to launch an attack first, taking advantage of the Japanese army's various attacks. When the fortifications are not repaired, give him a hard punch. It must feel quite good.
After comprehensively considering various factors, Tang Qiuli could only give up this tempting idea. First of all, under the condition of equal firepower, the casualties of the attacking side would definitely exceed that of the defending side, so he was reluctant to risk the lives of the soldiers. The second thing that satisfies the individual is never to fire the first shot. Sometimes, politics has to be talked about. War is a continuation of politics. He can't remember what the famous general said.
If there had not been any factors from the Nanjing government, the Yamaguchi brigade would have been wiped out by Tang Qiuli on the way, and it would still be his turn to be so arrogant here.
But just in these few hours, the troops of the ** Division moving to the two wings of the Yamaguchi Brigade were all in place. They were only waiting for the division commander's order to pounce on the Yamaguchi Brigade and deliver a fatal blow to the Yamaguchi Brigade. Yamaguchi had no idea about all this. , I don¡¯t blame him. Before the July 7th Incident, there were no Chinese troops that could withstand the attack of two Japanese regiments.
The Japanese position on the opposite side became quiet. Tang Qiuli knew that Yamaguchi was ready. He immediately ordered the troops at the front. Except for leaving a small number of troops to monitor the Japanese troops, the rest of the troops immediately retreated to the third line of defense to monitor the troops. Quickly enter the bombhole.
There was a loud noise, and the Japanese army began to shell. The front-line positions of the Japanese Army were quickly shrouded in gunpowder smoke. Groups of artillery shells, with sharp and strange whistling, fell on the position and exploded clouds of soil.
It may be that the Japanese were very angry with the big sign erected at the front and were very unhappy with it. They were hit by artillery fire first and wasted hundreds of shells before blowing the sign into pieces. Listening to the Japanese artillery fire, Regarding sound, the largest caliber is the 75mm mountain gun, and there are no large-caliber field guns.
The Japanese army shelled for twenty minutes. The front positions of the ** Division were covered in soil and changed beyond recognition. After the shelling stopped, a large group of Japanese troops formed a charge formation and marched swaggeringly into the ** Division position.
The Japanese artillery did not extend their firing. Perhaps they felt that after this round of shells, there should be very few Chinese troops left on the position, and it was not worth wasting the imperial army's artillery shells. The infantry rushed up to accept the position, and the Japanese artillery had already begun to dismantle the artillery. , make preparations to pass through the area.
The Japanese infantry has advanced to a place more than 300 meters away from the first position of the Japanese division. The Chinese position is quieter than a cemetery. There is not a single shot of retaliation. The Japanese army is in a more relaxed mood. It turns out that the cat is lying on his waist. , the soldiers who were making tactical movements also relaxed their tense nerves, and walked towards the front casually like wanderers.
Suddenly, a roar greater than before sounded from behind the Japanese division's position. A group of artillery shells pierced the air, with a sharp tail sound, passing over the heads of the charging Japanese troops and hitting the Japanese artillery position.
Listening to the sharp whistling sound of the artillery shells passing over their heads, the Japanese soldiers had goosebumps all over their bodies. They never dreamed that the Chinese army had so many artillery pieces to fight back the imperial army's artillery.
The Japanese captain who was directing the charge suddenly realized that the Chinese army was playing tricks and was very cunning. They were dealing with the artillery of the imperial army. The next wave of artillery shells would definitely fall on his head. He immediately shouted out orders to the soldiers. , charging at the fastest speed, only by entering the Chinese position and mixing with their soldiers can they escape the fate of eating artillery shells.
The Japanese captain was very smart and adopted correct tactics. However, artillery shells still had to be eaten. Those large-caliber artillery shells ignored them and continued to fly over their heads, flying in the direction of the artillery position.
What fell above them was a swarm of black mortar shells like a swarm of crows. More than a hundred mortars were fired at the beginning. Other artillery forces destroyed the Japanese artillery positions. There was no time to spare these two-legged guys. It was all left to the mortars to take care of.
The Japanese charging formation was immediately overwhelmed by smoke and fire. The artillery shells fell, and groups of Japanese soldiers were blown up into the air. The first round of shelling left them defenseless.Japanese troops, causing serious damage, not to mention this is a high-explosive mortar shell, one can withstand the power of a 75mm mountain artillery shell.
The remaining Japanese troops charged forward desperately. Only by mixing with the Chinese soldiers could they avoid the deadly shells. Their idea was good, but there was always a gap between reality and ideals. Groups of mortar shells chased them. Blast into a wall of death.
What frightened the Japanese soldiers even more was that on the desolate moon-like position, each light and heavy machine gun firepower point suddenly came to life. The muzzle of the gun was spitting flames, roaring and firing deadly bullets. Wherever the bullets hit, the Japanese soldiers were killed. Rows of people were swept down, lying convulsing and twitching in pools of blood. The screams of the dying could be heard amidst the deafening sound of gunfire.
Such a sudden and ferocious fire attack broke the will of the unsuspecting Japanese soldiers. The Japanese soldiers who saved their lives turned around and ran back. Mortar shells and light and heavy machine gun bullets chased their butts, and another barrage of fire broke out. He beat them hard and drove them back to the starting point of the charge.
Yamaguchi painfully saw that within ten minutes, hundreds of artillery shells fell on his artillery position, turning it into ruins. The artillery that had been preparing to advance, along with the soldiers, were reduced to parts, and the shells exploded. The bent gun barrel and the gun wheels flying in all directions were a miserable scene.
The artillery of the Chinese army was still brutally bombarding. Unfortunately, a blown artillery part happened to hit the left foot of the brigade leader, the Imperial Army Major General. Yamaguchi screamed in pain, and his left foot was swollen at the time. Like a steamed bun, I conservatively estimated that four toes on his left foot were comminuted fractures.
There were more than 1,300 soldiers in a charging brigade, but only 300 to 400 of them escaped by chance, and most of them were injured. The brigade captain was not so lucky, and stayed in a foreign land forever, with all his corpses intact. None could be found, only the bent command knife proved the identity of its former owner.
From the beginning of the Japanese artillery bombardment to the present, in just forty minutes, an elite Japanese field brigade was completely disabled, with a casualty rate of over 90%. This fully proved the principle that Tang Qiuli had always implemented, using the most ferocious A sudden blow to the enemy with its firepower will definitely kill the enemy, or at the very least, make the enemy lose its combat effectiveness.
The Japanese artillery made a fatal mistake. The artillery fire did not extend. This gave Tang Qiuli to quickly mobilize all mortars and light and heavy machine guns to the front line, creating an opportunity to concentrate the most powerful firepower and give the Japanese army the maximum of killing.
It turned out that he was planning to use infantry firepower to crush the first wave of Japanese attacks. Unexpectedly, the Japanese artillery provided such a big opportunity. The battle that could have been stalemate for a while ended quickly, leaving soldiers with light weapons behind. They shook their heads with regret. They hadn't fought with the Japs for a long time. They originally wanted to start fighting, but they didn't expect it. They were rounded up by the artillery and light and heavy machine gunners.
In the first wave of collisions, the Japanese army suffered heavy losses. Two artillery brigades were completely wiped out, and an infantry brigade was left with very little. Six people in the Japanese division were killed and 48 injured, all caused by Japanese artillery fire.
A sudden heavy punch knocked Yamaguchi completely unconscious. He didn't know where a Chinese army appeared with such powerful firepower. Judging from the explosion points of the shells, it was at least a heavy artillery with a caliber of more than 100 mm. , can create such a bombardment effect. Those are the heavy weapons that can only be found in the formation of troops at or above the division level of the Imperial Army. How did the Chinese army come from.
It's all my fault for underestimating the enemy. If the artillery hadn't been busy preparing to move, it wouldn't have been caught by the opponent's rear attack and would have been unable to fight back. Which Chinese army was on the opposite side? With such powerful firepower and fierce and cunning tactics, it would be impossible to He won't be beaten until he vomits blood, and he still doesn't know who did it.
Of course, Yamaguchi still had money in hand. He lost a brigade and at best lost a finger. He still had his old capital. He couldn't swallow this breath. When had the Imperial Army suffered such a big loss? There was no artillery. It didn't matter. Gather all the grenade launchers and heavy machine guns to form a fire assault team to completely suppress the firepower of the Chinese troops. I want to attack, attack
The position of the Chinese troops on the opposite side surprisingly cooperated with Yamaguchi's actions and did not fight, leaving him plenty of preparation time. Yamaguchi firmly believed that the tragic defeat just now was just the conspiracy of the Chinese and his own carelessness, and the combat effectiveness of the imperial army It has nothing to do with it. The Imperial Japanese Army, which advocates decisive battles with the main force, wants to teach these despicable Chinese people a lesson openly.
Without the threat of the opponent's artillery, Tang Qiuli was happy and exhausted with Yamaguchi. He knew that according to the temper of the Japanese generals at this period, they would never be able to swallow this sigh of relief. What they encountered were all Chinese troops that were on the verge of collapse. The Great Wall Resistance War, although the battle It was heroic and famous in history, but in the end it ended in failure, which also gave the Japanese army a terrible reputation.
Especially in North China, the Japanese army has not learned a profound lesson. If it is placed on the generals of the Kwantung Army in the Northeast, they will immediately judge that it isIt is possible for the troops of the Blood Hand Regiment to turn around and retreat or call for reinforcements. They will never launch an attack without artillery cover and the opponent's firepower far exceeds theirs.
