Three hundred and fifteenth chapter Western Front Reorganization
Tiehan was not a person who hesitated, so he immediately ordered a retreat. The Japanese soldiers who were injured and captured had no ability or time to carry them.
"How to deal with the prisoners," the adjutant asked Tiehan.
Tiehan looked at Chai Fei, who said: "Pull all the lightly injured ones to the side and shoot them. Leave the seriously injured ones behind, and let the Japanese who come for backup concentrate on taking care of them. As for those rifles, crooked machine guns and other weapons, they can't carry them." After leaving, I arranged for someone to find a place to bury it, so we can use it for future travels."
"Okay, it goes without saying. There are a lot of good things in this barracks, but we don't have enough time, otherwise we can get a lot of loot," Tiehan said with a smile.
The main purpose of cleaning the battlefield was to transport some valuable items. Chai Fei ordered the infantry to collect about two thousand intact 38-guns, as well as tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition, and dozens of heavy machine guns, and transported them away from the military camp and found a ravine to dig. Buried in a pit.
As for the inoperable supplies and daily necessities in the barracks, the Kwantung Army's mountain artillery, and other large quantities of materials were all burned in one go, and there were constant explosions in the raging fire.
Most of the infantrymen under Chai Fei were from the mountains of Northeast China, and they kept saying it was a pity and a waste.
Chai Fei said: "These things are good and tempting, but life is more important. The Kwantung Army's rapid reinforcements are already on the way. If we are greedy for these supplies and delay our retreat, we may suffer a ruthless blow." , so you have to know the trade-offs at critical moments, do you understand?”
"Got it," everyone said and quickly boarded the truck.
The Gray Wolf tanks were at the rear, with the Bobcats in the lead. The team quickly retreated, and when it was about a few dozen miles away from the coastal port, Chaifei selected a critical pass and mobilized two thousand infantry, multiple counterweight machine guns, and mortars, but waited until daybreak in Kanto. The army's reinforcements did not pursue him.
Jinan, headquarters.
Everywhere was busy, the communications room was full of people coming and going, and telegrams were constantly coming and going.
"Commander-in-Chief, Tiehan and Chai Fei not only eliminated all the Kwantung Army and the navy stationed at the port, they also took the initiative and annihilated an independent brigade of the Kwantung Army at a very small cost. More than 6,000 people have safely withdrawn to the seaside." Jia Cai said.
Liu Tianling said: "I'm still afraid that the tough guy will make a fool of himself. When fighting, he only knows how to advance and not retreat. It seems that there is no big problem. I immediately sent a telegram to commend him. At the same time, I ordered the construction of fortifications to deal with the Kwantung Army's counterattack at any time. This evening, the Third Division It’s here,”
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away," Jia Cai said.
"It's time for our Western Route Army to prepare," Zhu Yupu said.
"Give me the order to start mobilizing, and assemble in Texas," Liu Tianling said.
The West Route Army is larger and more powerful in comparison. The West Route Army is personally commanded by Liu Tianling. It has a mountain brigade under the guard division, brigade commander Lei Hu, and Fang Xian's ordinary guard brigade. The two brigades total one Among the 12,000-person light infantry, there are only a dozen Gray Wolf tanks, less than a hundred Spirit Fox multi-purpose infantry vehicles, and the rest are troop transport trucks.
Tang Haoren's artillery division, which is the main force on the West Road, mainly uses self-propelled large-caliber artillery, and there are also many other artillery pieces. It has a total of 20,000 soldiers and more than 1,200 large and small artillery pieces. It can be said that it has the most troops, artillery and firepower. Fierce, of course the artillery unit alone needs more than a hundred supply trucks.
There is also the newly established light firepower brigade, an independent brigade of rocket launchers led by Qin Yi, with one hundred wheeled rocket launchers and a scale of 5,000 people. Although the rocket launcher brigade has not been established for a long time, it does not have heavy armor. , but the firepower is a mess. As long as there are infantry protecting the rocket launcher on all sides, the hail-like rockets can destroy a position without reinforced concrete and other heavy fortifications in just a few minutes, and the rockets launched by the rocket launcher have a long range. , powerful and much more convenient than ordinary artillery.
In addition, in order to make up for the lack of armor of the West Route Army, the newly established Army Aviation Corps had 150 Nighthawk helicopters working together to fight together. However, the West Route Army was not in a hurry to set off. The army gathered in Texas, and the troops and supplies were hoarded to be ready at all times.
In Shijiazhuang, Huawei's Second Division had received an order for first-level combat readiness. All officers and soldiers stopped all vacation activities. Twenty thousand soldiers were divided into three strongholds and stationed. Among them, the armored units were fully equipped and ready to attack.
As for the World War II zone, Feng Yuxiang received an order to intensify troop training and be on guard. The defense area of the second theater was very large. Facing Nanjing in the south and the two powerful enemies of the Northwest Army in the west, he had to be careful.
At this moment, the beaches of Dalian in the northeast were facing a severe test. The Kwantung Army Command Team was very angry at the sudden attack by the National Guard Army. They immediately ignored the pressure from the Feng Army behind them and sent 20,000 troops southward. At the same time, more than 100 fighter jets from the Air Force were supporting them.
The mighty Kwantung Army, although not slow, was still much slower than the Protectorate Army, which always emphasized blitzkrieg. It would take at least four or five days for the 20,000-strong army to assemble and set off south.
At this time, Liu Erniang led the Third Division to the landing point long ago, and in order to prepare for the upcoming battle, the team moved forward to the Majiatun area. The Majiatun area was the former Kwantung Army military zone and was the junction of plains and hills.
The transportation is convenient, but there are many hills with dense vegetation. Most of the original villages were dispersed by the Kwantung Army, and there are not many left.
The third division has more than 20,000 men, more than 200 tanks and armor, and the armored brigade has 7,000 men and nearly 200 tanks and armor. The infantry brigade led by Chai Fei has been reduced to 6,000 after at least two battles.
However, the soldiers are still in a high fighting mood. They are responsible for air fire support and have space to send a squadron of fifty fighter jets. If necessary, more will be sent.
The Tiehan Armored Brigade is stationed in the hilly area to the north of Majiatun, which is full of vegetation. However, it was late summer, so the vegetation was green and they were not afraid of fire attacks.
Ten miles away to the south is the 20,000-strong army of the Third Division stationed on the plain. To the east, the Chai Fei Infantry Brigade is stationed in the hills to protect the air force of the flying group. The three military camps are divided into triangles, and the road in the middle is flat to support each other and fight against each other.
The 20,000 Kwantung Army is still more than enough.
However, Tiehan was a little confused. He was unwilling to obey the order and hid the most important Gray Wolf tank in an underground bunker or cave. Instead, he parked it carelessly on the plain. Liu Erniang reminded him several times that Tiehan considered himself an independent armored brigade.
Don't buy it.
At this moment, the commander of the Kwantung Army, more than a hundred miles away, was very happy. After the intelligence officer confirmed that an armored brigade of the National Protectorate Army was arrogant because it had won two battles, and even put dozens of Gray Wolf tanks, a very precious and important combat force,
I feel extremely happy when parked on flat ground.
"Are you sure they built very few air defense fortifications," asked Major General Ono Jiro, the commander of the Kwantung Army.
"It's certain that they have built a total of one observation post and six anti-aircraft machine gun fire points. Although their Lynx armored vehicle and Spirit Fox anti-aircraft vehicle can provide air defense, the soldiers are very lazy and there are very few people on duty. As for their air force, although they have fifty fighter jets
