Chapter 126 The magic weapon for victory(1/2)
Tanaka Toyo's idea was simple. The infantry who captured the right position quickly eliminated the independent regiment's artillery unit.
Then he would command the troops here, carrying ten mountain cannons and a large number of light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers to move over quickly.
In this case, the little devils can set up artillery positions and machine gun positions in the independent regiment positions.
The flanks and rear of all the counter-assault troops of the Independent Regiment were completely exposed to their firepower.
At this moment, Toyo Tanaka thought he had a chance to win!
But while they were launching their operations, the main force of the combined battalion, under the command of Lu Ming, easily captured his original brigade headquarters.
Wei Bao watched a large number of cavalry rushing over from a distance. He almost didn't hesitate and ran away with his men.
The puppet artillery still wanted to destroy the two running Schneider field guns, but Wu Dayong's second company of cavalry attacked very quickly.
Some cavalrymen fired with formal rifles, and many puppet artillery soldiers were killed.
The remaining puppet troops fled in a hurry, and the second company of cavalry captured the place easily.
When Lu Ming arrived with the main force, the two Schneider field guns directly became trophies.
Lu Ming did not dare to delay at all, and decisively issued the battle order.
Some personnel were left behind to assist, while the rest of the troops were sent out in full force.
The combined battalion began to attack the first line of Japanese troops!
A field gun, under the command of Lu Ming, began to aim at the Japanese Type 94 mountain gun on the far right position.
"Boom, boom, boom!" After Lu Ming adjusted the shooting angle, he fired continuously.
The dozen or so shells left here were fired by Lu Ming in one go.
He didn't have time to check the effects of the bombardment, so he met directly with the main force of the synthetic battalion.
The first Japanese army organized by Toyo Tanaka had a thousand little Japanese soldiers.
However, after successive battles with Shenquan's Second Battalion, they currently only have more than 600 people left.
Moreover, at this time, they were facing an all-out counterattack by Shenquan's 2nd Battalion, with four 82MM mortars and two infantry guns firing continuously.
The combined battalion came directly from behind them, and the one at the front was the armored mobile company.
The two Type 95 tanks of the armored mobile company began to use the 37MM tank gun to fire grenades.
Two 92 armored vehicles fired one after another with 13MM caliber machine guns.
Ten wheeled combat vehicles, six MG34 machine guns, and eight Type 96 machine guns were firing continuously.
A dense barrage of bullets was fired at the Japanese army, and the little Japanese was beaten into a bloody mess.
There were pieces of meat everywhere, and many little devils didn't even leave intact bodies.
The two cavalry companies temporarily became mounted infantry.
More than a hundred people guarded the horses, while the remaining two hundred people dismounted and fought.
Chinese formal rifles, Czech light machine guns, and 60MM mortars fired continuously.
The first Japanese troops suffered heavy casualties under the powerful firepower of the combined battalion.
Their surviving strength dropped from more than 600 troops to less than 500 troops in an instant.
Captain Shaozuo's face was pale and his expression was very panicked.
In the front is the Shenquan Second Battalion; behind is the Lu Minghe Battalion.
Under the attack of the two battalions, the number of Japanese casualties continued to increase.
Their light and heavy machine gun grenades were simply unable to carry out a strike.
Once these machine gun shooters and grenade launchers are exposed, they will be hit by intensive firepower.
Mortars, infantry guns, and tank guns kept firing.
Especially the large-caliber machine guns of the armored vehicles made the little devils start to doubt their life.
After all, if a 13MM caliber bullet hits the body, it will be torn into pieces.
"Retreat, retreat immediately, retreat towards the right position!"
As the combat strength dropped sharply to 400 men, Captain Shao Zuo could no longer stand it and decisively issued a retreat order.
Tanaka Toyo soon noticed the situation here, and he hurriedly ordered artillery to provide support.
Captain Zuozuo of the artillery team quickly observed through the artillery team's mirror and hurriedly measured and fired Zhu Yuan.
But after he completed the operation, Lu Ming took the synthesis battalion and began to move.
The first group of Japanese troops, with less than 400 men, desperately approached the position on the right, but Shenquan's second battalion opened fire to intercept them.
Their casualties continued to increase, and Captain Shaozuo's face was full of despair.
He roared loudly, and the communications troops continued to generate electricity to contact the brigade and regiment headquarters.
As for the Lu Ming Combined Battalion, after watching the Japs evacuate, they moved directly to the left side of the Independent Regiment's position.
The Japanese troops on the first line were almost crippled. Even if they evacuated safely, they had lost their combat effectiveness.
If the combined battalion continues to fight, once it is completely solved, they will be exposed to Japanese mountain artillery strikes.
At this time, they moved towards the left side of the position, which gradually left the range of the mountain artillery.
The most important point is that here on the left side, the puppet troops have been fighting Wang Huaibao's third battalion for more than a thousand days.
It is obviously profitable for the Synthetic Camp to return here in a roundabout way.
It was Toyo Tanaka who created problems for Lu Ming before.
They have ten mountain guns and a large number of light and heavy machine guns and grenades deployed, and it depends on whether the vehicles and cavalry of the combined battalion dare to attack.
If they don't attack, the Japanese army will easily capture the right position, advance quickly, and even control the entire independent regiment position.
After all, the entire main force of the Independent Regiment was counter-charging, and there were only a pitiful number of troops left on the position.
This was a difficult problem, and it stumped Lu Ming for a while.
But as the system continued to increase staff knowledge points, Lu Ming reacted quickly.
If you save the land and lose the people, everyone and the land will be lost; if you save the land and lose the people, everyone and the land will be gained!
If you hit yours, I'll hit mine; if you can't beat me, then beat me; if you can't beat me, then leave!
These strategic ideas are the magic weapon to win.
If you want to keep the position on the right, the final result may be that the position is lost and the troops suffer heavy losses.
However, if the position is abandoned and the troops are saved, there is still a chance for a comeback.
Moreover, he was too obsessed with the gains and losses on the right side and was worried that the Independent Regiment would be completely defeated, which meant that he was completely led by the little Japanese.
Why don't Lu Ming lead the combined battalion to fight in other areas? You guys will fight on the right side, and we'll fight on the first line of Japanese troops.
The two have nothing to do with each other, let's see who can bear the loss.
Moreover, when fighting in other areas, the combined battalion does not have to worry and can fully utilize its advantages.
Now, Lu Ming threw the difficult problem to Tanaka Toyo.
Do you want to continue to deal with the artillery units of the independent regiment, or do you want to protect the first line of Japanese troops?
Now the first Japanese troops were attacked by the Second Battalion of Shenquan, and their casualties increased again.
"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the first line of troops suffered heavy losses and were almost completely annihilated."
"Moreover, the cavalry and armored units of the Independent Regiment began to approach the second line of troops. The troops here are also in great danger."
"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, we must make a decision, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous!"
On the right side of the position, the center-left chief of staff hurriedly came to Tanaka Toyo to report.
Toyo Tanaka raised his telescope and observed that four hundred little Japanese had already begun to attack the artillery position.
Although they encountered resistance, the Japs were still able to capture the artillery position in the end.
As long as they capture the artillery positions, they can quickly move in and attack the independent regiment.
But doing so would mean that the first line of Japanese troops might be completely annihilated.
"Artillery bombardment, if we launch artillery bombardment, we must first coordinate the withdrawal of the first line of troops."
Toyo Tanaka looked at the artilleryman Zuo on the side and immediately asked.
"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, their troops are currently relatively scattered. Although our shelling can achieve results, it will not be huge."
"Moreover, after successive battles, our artillery shells were consumed a lot. The enemy's shelling just now caused damage to two of our mountain cannons..."
"If we launch an artillery bombardment, although it can cause casualties to them, there won't be many people in the first line of troops who can withdraw."
Artillery Major Zuo lowered his head and carefully reported.
What he meant was obvious, hundreds of people in the second battalion would not gather together to fight.
They are scattered to intercept. When the mountain cannon here strikes, it is very likely that a shell will appear, and the maximum result will be three or four.
To be continued...
