    Before Tang Qiuli arrived at Wubin, he encountered four tank brigades on the way. They were busy building a defense line, instead of digging trenches and repairing fortifications with a loud momentum of spades and pickaxes.  Commander, he was busy directing his troops, arranging troops in accordance with the defense requirements of armored troops, and was tense but not chaotic.  (Baidu search

    e.c

    m,)

    Speaking of which, this is the original creation of the Army Corps. Throughout the world, the use of armored forces is based on the principles of rapid maneuvering and fierce attack. Armored defense has never been heard of. At the beginning, Tang Qiuli  When he advocated setting up this course at Dingbian Military Academy, the dean, General Jiang Baili, couldn't figure it out anyway. Besides, where to find teaching materials and instructors?

    Tang Qiuli had no choice but to take matters into his own hands, compiled a textbook, and spent a lot of time to train a group of teachers. During that time, the war in North China was raging. Tang Qiuli was not just a whim, he was.  Based on our understanding of our opponents, the Japanese, the Japanese army during World War II had very few armored forces, and tanks and other armored weapons were not at the same level as those of European and American countries.

    The opponents of the Japanese army were Asian countries, and the main opponent was China. At that time, China could not even manufacture its own artillery, let alone tanks, let alone anti-tank weapons. Therefore, the tanks equipped by the Japanese army had extremely thin armor.  This light tank is enough to run rampant on the battlefield.

    The Japanese Army advocates hand-to-hand charges. The tank defensive warfare advocated by Tang Qiuli is to use the Soviet tanks equipped by the army. During the attack, they quickly switch to defense. Each tank becomes a moving bunker and fort.  , for the charging Japanese army, it was no more than a steel barrier, which could better protect the lives of the soldiers and save the time of digging trenches and fortifications.

    However, at this moment, he saw four brigades of tank troops in a defensive posture, and he felt very strange. Could it be that Wubin was lost? Is this a backup line of defense?  Why didn't I get a telegram from Brother Qiu Sheng?

    Chief of Staff Yang Ketian was about to get out of the car to ask questions when he was stopped by Tang Qiuli. These troops were unified under the command of Tang Qiusheng. He believed that Brother Qiu Sheng had his own reasons for doing this, and he didn't do it when he came to Wubin.  He had thought that he would take over the command of the battle. The troops of the four brigades and the artillery units were still behind him. The purpose of Tang Qiuli's arrival at the Wubin front line was to find out whether the Japanese army was still strong after Le Yiqin's aviation attack.  Ability to continue attacking.

    If this is the case, he will consider continuing to withdraw his troops and confront the Japanese army in the Gangao Mountains. The advantage of this is that it can induce the Japanese army to continue to penetrate deeper into northern Myanmar. By then, it will be difficult to turn back and the length of the road will be stretched  The Japanese army's logistics supply line, secondly, prevents the troops from having a head-on fight with the superior Japanese army. There are many terrains that can be used in the Gangao Mountains.

    Seeing that Brother Qiu Sheng had established a reserve defense line, Tang Qiuli had already made a decision. After repelling the Japanese attack, he began to consider the issue of continuing to withdraw northward. Trapping Ito's main Japanese army in the Gangao Mountains was also a good choice.

    Seeing the division commander coming in, the staff officers in the headquarters were busy saluting. Tang Qiuli waved his hand to stop, meaning not to disturb everyone. Tang Qiusheng and Chang Feng did not notice Tang Qiuli coming in, and they were tightly  Staring at his watch, Chang Feng held the phone in one hand, and the phone on the table rang.

    Tang Qiusheng grabbed him and said, "I am the headquarters. The main force of the Japanese army is passing through Wubin. OK!" He looked up and saw Tang Qiuli. He was slightly stunned and did not bother to say hello. He said to Chang Feng: "Start.  Let's go!" Chang Feng said into the phone: "Start the bombardment!"

    As soon as Chang Feng finished speaking, there was an earth-shaking loud noise, and the soil on the ceiling of the command headquarters began to fall down. Tang Qiuli sat on the chair and felt that the ground under his feet was shaking. At this time  , Tang Qiusheng smiled apologetically, "Here comes the teacher, I didn't bother to say hello just now," Chang Feng, who was not as casual as Tang Qiusheng, quickly saluted.

    Tang Qiuli hurriedly motioned for everyone to do their own business, "Brother Qiu Sheng, which song are you singing? There is a lot of noise outside. I'm afraid there are several artillery groups shelling. I'll catch up and watch the show as soon as I get here."  , could it be a meeting gift for me?" Tang Qiusheng said with a smile.

    There was a burst of laughter in the headquarters. It was strange to say that as soon as the division commander arrived, everyone felt extremely at ease and proud. It was not that they doubted Tang Qiusheng's commanding ability or the outcome of this battle, but  The image of Tang Qiuli has penetrated into the hearts of every officer and soldier of the ** division. The division commander personally went to the Wubin battlefield, which shows that we are the most important

    Amidst the deafening sound of artillery, Tang Qiusheng gave a brief report on the battlefield situation and his plan. Tang Qiuli nodded repeatedly, gave a thumbs up, and said: "Brother Qiusheng, your current use of troops is becoming more and more dangerous."  This is deceitful. This is not true."Your usual style is calm and steady." Tang Qiusheng shook his head and said with a smile: "Xiaoqiu, you are making fun of me. With a teacher like you, how can we, as subordinates, stick to the rules?"  The so-called, what is good from above, must be followed down below, I learned it from you.  "

    There was another burst of laughter. There was no tense atmosphere like a fierce battle in the headquarters. The laughter even overwhelmed the "rumbling" sound of artillery outside. Tang Qiuli said: "Brother Qiu Sheng, Chang Feng, I want to inform you of good news.  Le Yiqin's aviation unit dealt a devastating blow to Japan's Southeast Asia Expeditionary Force aviation unit in the Mandalay airspace. It is estimated that the Japanese aviation unit will not be able to recover within a few months. "

    There was a burst of warm applause in the command post. This was another piece of exciting good news. Everyone was an expert and had mastered air control. The impact on the battle in northern Myanmar was self-evident. Moreover, the thrilling battle this morning  Everyone saw the air battle.

    After receiving Le Yiqin's telegram, even Tang Qiuli, who was still in Degang at the time, was very excited. The battle in Wubin airspace severely damaged the main force of Japan's Southeast Asia Expeditionary Force aviation force, shooting down 87 Japanese fighter jets and 100 bombers.  Zero eight, he only lost twenty-seven fighter jets, a record of almost seven to one.

    Le Yiqin's aerial encirclement tactics were the key to victory in this air battle. Five of the seven fighter flight groups taking off from the Nanning Field Airport were responsible for taking the retreat of the Japanese aircraft. Just above Mandalay, hundreds of  A Japanese Army fighter plane intercepted the Japanese aircraft's return route.

    Eager to evacuate the fighting airspace and get rid of the Chinese fighter jets that were chasing after them, the Japanese military aircraft group expected that a group of evil spirits would be killed behind them. The Japanese guard soldiers in Mandalay City and the Japanese expatriates witnessed this with their own eyes.  It was an unforgettable air battle that they would never forget. The greatest significance of this air battle was not the number of Japanese aircraft shot down, but the psychological blow to Japanese soldiers and expatriates.

    According to a Japanese businessman who had just forcibly taken over a factory in Mandalay, he wrote to his friend, "The morning of July 6th is an unforgettable day. On this day, our eagle of the Japanese Empire  Unfortunately, my wings were broken in the sky over Mandalay in northern Myanmar. It was very painful. I saw all this with my own eyes, and my heart was bleeding. I couldn't help but have doubts about His Majesty the Emperor's words to conquer Asia and conquer the world for the first time.  , Could it be that this is our invincible Imperial Japanese Army Air Force that cannot even defeat the inferior Chinese? "

    Next, there is a detailed description of that air battle. It should be said that this Japanese businessman, who had just seized someone else's property and did exactly the same thing as the Japanese soldiers, wrote well and described it vividly, "In the clear sky, the shadows of the aircraft on both sides were covered.  It was full of planes chasing each other and shooting at each other.¡±

    "There were blooming black smoke balls everywhere. From time to time, planes exploded in the sky. Broken fuselage fragments rolled down from the sky with thick smoke. Some planes, dragging long tails of thick smoke, crashed head-on.  It hit the ground and exploded into a ball of fire. Sadly, most of the planes that exploded and crashed were Imperial Japanese planes with the sun logo painted on their wings. This was a scene that made me heartbroken, so much so that I couldn¡¯t help but  I cried loudly, hoping that everything I saw was not true, and that God Amaterasu would bless me and the Imperial Army of Japan to be invincible!"

    In a decisive battle, Le Yiqin crippled the Japanese Southeast Asia Expeditionary Force aviation unit. In order to commend the Southern Flying Group's outstanding military exploits, Tang Qiuli ordered Le Yiqin to shoot down the most Japanese aircraft in this air battle, ranking him second.  The names of the top three pilots were reported and awarded the Second Class Medal of Valor, and the Minister of Logistics, Major General Zhang Quan, was ordered to immediately start building a field airport in Myitkyina so that it could be used in early 1941.

    Tang Qiusheng's long-prepared bombardment lasted for more than an hour. Several rocket launcher battalions poured overwhelming rockets into the Japanese marching column, covering the area from the first line of defense to the third line of defense, with a depth of 20  In an area more than 10 kilometers wide and more than ten kilometers wide, the heavy artillery group used groups of shells to blast the rear of the Japanese army into a sea of ??flames, cutting off the connection between the Japanese army's front and rear.

    As soon as the bombardment stopped, the counterattack troops, led by a brigade of tanks, launched a ferocious attack on the chaotic Japanese army. They hit the sun until the sun set and drove the Japanese army back to the front on a front more than ten kilometers wide.  At night in the Baldwin Mining Area, Tang Qiusheng refused to give up. He mobilized three tank brigades to join the counterattack and pushed back the Japanese troops from the Baldwin Mining Area to the Libao Grand Canyon.

    Ito Genzaburo worked hard for more than a month and killed more than 400,000 British soldiers. All the gains he made were lost in one day and one night. Taking advantage of the geographical location of the Riho Grand Canyon, the retreating Japanese army barely built a defense line. **  The division troops stopped attacking and faced off with the Japanese troops from the northern foot of Libao Grand Canyon to Mogok.

    Lieutenant General Tang Qiusheng, deputy commander of the ** Division and commander of the Sulu Mobile Corps, was in an unfavorable situation.Under this circumstance, with a smaller force than the Japanese army, he successfully repulsed the Japanese army that invaded Myitkyina from the north and reversed the war situation in northern Myanmar, and became famous in this battle.
