During the four consecutive days of battle, the high ground in the middle of Asansol City, which was more than 100 meters above sea level, became the focus of the tug-of-war between the two sides.

This highland covers an area of ​​about one square kilometer. It was a high-end residential area built by the British in the early years. It was full of villas and tall buildings. The rich Indians in the Two Rivers purchased real estate here, which led to the extremely prosperous area of ​​this block. It was worth every inch of land and the buildings were extremely crowded.

Such congestion caused some trouble to the Anjia Army during the attack.

In order to concentrate all efforts to eliminate the Japanese army invading north of the Beragel River and reduce the consumption of ammunition, the seventh and ninth army slowed down the offensive against Asansol City the night before yesterday, and the Japanese army took the opportunity to launch a counterattack, and the two sides fought repeatedly in the highlands of Shizhong District.

In just over thirty hours, the mountains in Shizhong District changed hands several times, and the two sides repeatedly rushed here. Any street was no longer measured by rice, but by corpses.

In a sense, this is a "rat war". In the vast plains, the Anjia Army's air force and mechanized forces have an absolute advantage. Even if the troops are at a disadvantage, they are confident that they will defeat their opponents. However, when they come here, nothing can be guaranteed.

Although they needed help from preparing a place, the 10th Air Division still dispatched two flight regiments to bombard the Japanese army in Asansol City.

However, in the face of the arduous urban warfare, the Air Force pilots suddenly discovered that it was impossible for the local troops to accurately bomb the target when they were fighting in small places. Yes, bombs could blow up the entire building, but a small group of Japanese troops entered the basement and attacked from all directions through the mesh underground passage.

When the Anjia Army's tanks and armored vehicles attacked, once they fell into narrow and rubble-stacked streets, their weak protection rear cockpits became Japanese cannons, war defense cannons, and even grenades and explosives thrown from those collapsed high-rise buildings.

Brutal battles continued to unfold between the floors and houses of dilapidated buildings. Since sometimes the supply in the rear could not keep up for the time being, the battle eventually evolved into the most primitive fighting method, such as bayonets, engineer shovels, sticks and even stones.

Taking a collapsed five-story building in front of the highland as an example, in the continuous battle for control, both sides used pursuit cannons, grenades, machine guns and bayonets. The battle went on until midnight yesterday, the basement, corridors, platforms and rooms were filled with corpses of both sides of the enemy and us. The aisle between the burning houses was left with only a thin ceiling between the two floors.

In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, Zhang Chengzhu ordered the entire army to leave the high ground in the name of the commander of the group army and launch a counterattack after accumulating strength. Only a few people knew that after consultation, the General Staff had decided to launch a cloud bomb attack on this area, so that the rampant Japanese and Japanese-Indian soldiers could enjoy the taste of barbecue and suffocation.

At 10:30 in the morning, the clear sky was clear and the cumulonimbus clouds that often appeared in the rainy season had already disappeared, and the earth was shrouded in a golden glow.

Just as the Japanese were repairing fortifications, a huge group of aircraft flew over from the sky and bombed the highlands in the city. When the Japanese and Japanese and Indian soldiers on the ground were hiding deep in the building, three large Bo bombers dropped three parachutes in the north, south and east of the highlands, and black objects were hung under the parachutes.

When the Air Force was conducting intensive bombing, our artillery soldiers, who were in the west of the city, also used thousands of cannons to cover the high ground. Their use was mainly to block the Japanese army from taking advantage of the situation to launch a counterattack so that our frontier troops could retreat to a safe area. A few observers wore thick insulation suits and carried oxygen cylinders on their backs, crawling in the broken buildings to collect explosion data of cloud bombs.

At 10:45, three dull explosions came.

Such explosions were mixed with the overwhelming sound of artillery bombardment, almost inaudible. After a few seconds, three earth-shaking sounds suddenly came from the world. Three flames suddenly jumped up from the ground and rushed straight into the sky. The strong arc light shone the earth into a dazzling light. The powerful flames swept through the ground of the highland under the fuel of the huge shock wave, and consumed all oxygen wherever they went. All buildings that blocked the shock wave collapsed in the flying sand and stones.

The surface seemed to be burning, and many bricks and stones began to dissolve in high temperatures. The terrible flames continued to absorb all oxygen frantically. The Japanese and Japanese soldiers who were hiding underground suddenly felt difficult to breathe, and their whole bodies were as if they were roasted in fire, with abnormal pain.

After about two minutes, the violent shock wave slowly subsided, but the smoke that filled the three cloud explosions after the explosion actually gathered into a black cloud of smoke, like a large black mushroom, from the surface of the land to the sky. An Jiajun followed the military reporter and took a camera and camera to shoot this amazing scene, so that when An Yi saw it later, he almost thought it was a scene produced after the explosion of the atomic bomb.

The artillery of the Seventh and Ninth Army continued to shell for ten minutes before gradually stopping.

Then, a hundred Tiger Four tanks from a heavy independent tank regiment joined the battle group rumbled toward the high ground. Behind the Tiger Four tanks were two tank divisions of Leopard Four tanks and armored combat vehicles. Countless infantry were mixed in the middle of the convoy to cover the tanks.

When we arrived on the high ground, the Japanese positions were quiet. The officers and soldiers looked around and saw that almost all the buildings had become ruins. The Japanese and Japanese soldiers were either scorched or suffocated and died, with heavy casualties. The dead bodies looked very complete on the surface, without any traces of shrapnel, but their mouths were wide open.

When the infantry penetrated into various underground bunkers, they were surprised to find that most of the Japanese soldiers inside were killed. The dead had scratched their throats before they died. The few survivors also had their eyes dissipated and their bodies twitched. It was obvious that they were not far from death.

The one square kilometer highland was conquered in a blink of an eye, and the Japanese army in the eastern part of the highland were now in great panic.

The previous abnormality has fallen into the eyes of many Japanese. In addition, the three explosions that could not be concealed by the earth and the mountains, the rumors that the Chinese had mastered a weapon of mass destruction spread quickly, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to the morale of the Japanese army.

As the Anjia Army attacked the ground, the soldiers crossed the most difficult central highland without bloodshed. From the Japanese commanders to ordinary soldiers, they all confirmed one thing: the Chinese did have mastered such a terrible weapon, and the troops deployed in front must have been killed, otherwise they would not be able to explain everything they saw in front of them.

One hundred Tiger tanks that took the lead advanced to the city below the high ground at high speed. A large number of Japanese soldiers hiding in the building were depressed. They were either bombarded into the sky by tanks or suppressed by tank machine guns so that they could not fight back with machine guns. Some grenade launchers resisted stubbornly, taking advantage of the ballistic curve to hide where tank guns and machine guns could not bombard themselves, and fired at tanks that rushed at high speed.

The front armor of the Tiger tank was millimeters of blade and angled with a blade angle. When the grenade fell on the vehicle, it was like itchy when it exploded without any injury. Instead, the Japanese grenade troopers exposed to the target were quickly covered by the rain of howitzers and mortars. A large number of Japanese grenade soldiers were blown to pieces, including people and weapons.

When the troops advanced more than 500 meters again, the Japanese army's resistance became crazy again, and a tough confrontation situation appeared again.

In order to completely eliminate the Japanese army in Asansol City, according to the pre-planned plan, the 20th Tank Division will detour northward after rushing down the high ground and attacking the Japanese army Houhe River. The 26th Tank Division will advance south to the bank of the Damodel River and then attack eastward. The two tank divisions will gather at the railway station east of Asansol City, completely blocking the Japanese army's escape route to Galbeida.

The independent heavy tank regiment and two Mojian divisions launched attacks from the front, fighting teams attacked the fire points occupied by the Japanese and Indian troops. Automatic rifles, rocket launchers, coaxial cannons, and flamethrowers were powerful and destroyed the enemy in large quantities! When encountering the Japanese strong fortifications, Tiger tanks, GNP cannons can basically blow a fortification into the sky with one or two guns. Some particularly strong fortifications could not destroy Ying Ai in the distance. So the Tiger tank simply used its strong skin and thick flesh to block the bullets fired by the Japanese and Indian soldiers. The tank slowly advanced, and the muzzle approached the fortifications, directly aimed at the fire holes with the enemy's flames and bombarded the shells, and connected them into the shooting holes.

Fortresses are most likely to be destroyed from the inside. Even the hardest fortifications cannot withstand such fierce attacks. Often, two or three shells can turn a super-large fortress transformed into a solid building into a flat ground.

The armored infantry followed closely by the tanks to prevent the Japanese from throwing gasoline bottles, cluster grenades and explosive packs from the upper floors to destroy the tanks.

The infantry strike team rushed in from the gaps that were bombarded by tanks, climbed upstairs from behind the enemy, and launched a fierce attack on the Japanese and Japanese soldiers hiding in the building with grenades, automatic rifles, submachine guns and box cannons.

Even though some buildings have been destroyed and shaking, for the ground attacking troops, the ruins still seemed too high on the 1st. The tank guns were not elevated enough to bombard the firepower on the building. At this time, the NP92 infantry cannons that were dragged to the front line with armored personnel carriers also began to work.

Armored vehicles use knives~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you encounter a tiger tank's huge body cannot enter, the attack teams will show their power, and the universal machine gun suppresses the enemy, the coaxless cannon destroys the firepower points in the distance, the mortar bombards the enemy's grenadiers, and the rocket launcher strikes the firepower points in the nearest, eating the Japanese and Japanese and Indian troops little by little, and then detours and launching an attack from the enemy's back and sides. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the good news came, and the detoured 20th Tank Division and the 26th Tank Division successfully met at the railway station in the east of Asansol City, completely blocking the Japanese army's retreat to the east.

At this time, the Japanese commander realized that the situation was not good. On the one hand, he continued to crazily block the Anjia Army's frontal advancement, and on the other hand, he sent a large number of Japanese, Japanese and Indian troops and indigenous armed forces to try to recapture Chengdong Railway Station.

However, on the plains, infantry assaults on mechanized troops are undoubtedly a death-seeking act. Tank shells, mortar shells, self-propelled artillery, armored vehicle-mounted machine guns and armored infantry general machine guns are weaved into dense firepower, knocking down the enemy in waves on the way to charge.

The Japanese army went completely crazy and ignored the reality at all. Yi launched a death charge on the 1st, and finally drove the unarmed indigenous civilians to attack, but Yi. Yi was greeted with dense bomb rains.

Clustered in the crowd, a few Japanese and Japanese soldiers who assaulted the Anjia Army's formation thought they were able to do it, but in a blink of an eye, they were hit by the flames sprayed by the flamethrower and were burned with bacon amid the shrill howls.

The battle was very fierce. Because it was a field battle, bombers and helicopters also came to assist in the battle, beating the enemies on the plains to howl.

At 6 pm, the tank troops launched a counter-charge. The Leopard 44 tanks broke into the Japanese army like tigers out of the cage. With a good communication and command system, they coordinated their actions, pursued, blocked, divided and annihilated. A series of tactics moved, like flowing water, countless Japanese and native militants died in danger.

On the front battlefield, our army and the Japanese army continued to compete fiercely in every building, every street, and even every room east of Asansol City. Some of the Japanese and Indian troops began to surrender with white flags, and the civilians who were trapped tried every means to escape. These actions were encountered by the bloody town of the Japanese, but many natives were still able to save their lives.

At 7:10 pm, from the prisoners, Liao Minlin and Zhou Dingcheng learned that the city of Asansol not only surrounded the 31st and 33rd divisions of the East India Japanese army, but also included the 29th division of the Japanese army who rushed to rescue from Durgapur. The enemies in the encirclement also included eight independent infantry brigades and ten Japanese and Indian divisions, and they really caught a big fish.

Liao Minlin and Zhou Dingcheng both broke out in a cold sweat. The two armies of our army and the direct troops together had less than 200,000 people, while the opponent was about 350,000. If more than 200,000 indigenous people were added, the number comparison would be even more amazing. This battle was fought in a daze, but the current situation was that the An family army, who was siege, had a full advantage. It has to be said that this was a miracle.

Of course, all of this was obtained by the Anjia Army's advanced weapons and equipment and technical and tactical level. Not to mention anything else, just three cloud bombs can kill at least more than 10,000 enemies, not to mention the casualties brought to the enemy by continuous artillery bombings and fighter bombings!

However, it is precisely because of the large number of enemies in the encirclement that the battle will slower the further it goes.

The Japanese army arranged a large number of light and heavy machine guns at various key points in the east of the city, and each window was ambushed with sharpshooters. In the gates and windows of many buildings, there were hidden fields of cannons and cannons and tens of thousands of cannons. The number of anti-aircraft cannons reached a certain density, the closer they reached the command center of the Japanese army in the east of the city, the more intense the resistance was. The 19th and 27th Mofan Divisions had to pay the price of bleeding whenever they went further.

Because the enemy and us are intertwined, it is not suitable to use cloud bombs at this time. In the bloody battle, the Japanese army will not retreat, which is very troublesome.

In order to strengthen the strength of the siege troops, the 41st Tank Division and the 42nd Mofan Division, which had just achieved brilliant results in the Beragel River, rushed south before they could rest, and joined the frontal attack. The Front Command and the General Staff had made up their minds to take down this hard nail in any case and truly lay the foundation for victory in the East India war.

"Swish swish one by one..."

In the ruined block, whistling high-speed shells flew from time to time. These flat-fired cannons also have great lethality to Tiger tanks with super thick armor. Not to mention thin-skinned armored vehicles, they almost hit one by one. The Japanese army also placed anti-aircraft machine guns used for air defense against infantry, resulting in a large number of casualties in the Anjia army during the attack.

The officers and soldiers of the Anjia Army, who gritted their teeth to attack, broke through the back of the block with the cooperation of engineers and tanks, broke through the enemy's back, and launched an attack from the flanks of the Japanese and behind them. But even so, every time they attacked, under a building that was half bombed by bombs, there were always Japanese soldiers covered with explosives jumping down from the building and falling into the middle of the attacking Anjia Army and exploded. The Japanese gunmen who showed their heads to shoot from time to time also brought great trouble to our army, but often after they shot out the bullet, they were immediately hit by fierce fire.

The brave suicide attack of the Japanese army brought great losses to the attacking Anjia army in this unique urban terrain.

At this time, it was already a battle between fighting will and mental power, and it depends on who can grit his teeth and be strong until the end.

In view of the enemy's combat characteristics, snipers and special forces officers and soldiers from various strike groups are constantly looking for positions in order to discover the target in advance.

These elites carefully selected from the entire army used their erotic and anti-caliber anti-equipment weapons to kill the Japanese soldiers who tried to jump off the building and launch suicide attacks again and again. The enemy's sharpshooter had just revealed his head and was immediately blown out of his head. The enemy's gunner was still aiming, and his chest and abdomen had opened their blood and poured onto the cannon barrel.

This series of actions all brought heavy blows to the enemy and strongly supported our army's advance.

The Japanese army's positions were compressed again and again. At 4 a.m. on October 17, the Japanese army, who had been out of ammunition and food for five consecutive days, began to burn the corps flag. Three lieutenant generals committed suicide by cesarean section, and a special person cut off their heads. Then senior officers took a group of cesarean sections.

Captain 8

At dawn, the Anjia Army surrounded six divisions from all sides suppressed the Japanese army to a zone less than 500 meters north and south and two hundred meters east and west.

At 9:00 a.m., after the persuasion of surrender was invalid, the final attack was launched.

Under the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, the Anjia Army officers and soldiers broke into the Japanese positions from all directions and drove the Japanese army to four adjacent buildings in the eastern part of the city.

Subsequently, dense cannons, rocket artillery shells, like locusts, were shot into the Japanese defending buildings. The Anjia Army officers and soldiers who occupied several surrounding buildings set up Gaoping dual-purpose machine guns, general-purpose machine guns, and used automatic rifles and sniper rifles to suppress the defending enemies.

The individual soldiers' resilient cannons and rocket launchers also spit out flames, striving to completely bury the enemy.

Almost in an instant, several buildings spewed out flames, and the dark smoke screen rushed straight into the sky. The Japanese were indeed tenacious enough to hide in the fired room for the final resistance. The officers and soldiers rushed into the building with loud shouts and fought for each house with the Japanese army. The fierce battle lasted for two and a half hours. The An family army finally completely eliminated all the enemies in Ashansol City.

This battle, together with the previous Battle of Giderlunkin and the Berragher River annihilation, is collectively called the Battle of the Two Rivers. The battle started on October 12th and ended on the 17th. Our army wiped out four main divisions of the Japanese army, eleven independent infantry brigades, and a total of 216,000 people, at the cost of 21,432 casualties. In addition, it also wiped out 185,000 Japanese and Indian divisions and nearly 300,000 indigenous militants, with brilliant results!

During the battle, more than 1,100 artillery pieces were destroyed and seized, more than 500,000 guns were seized, and countless bullets were countless. It can be regarded as the greatest victory since the war to open up the mainland's transportation line!
