The battle was raging below the city of Guangzhou, with bullet marks like rain. When the Hainan Army's plane arrived over the battlefield, night had almost completely fallen. When I looked down, I saw orange-red flames. Every time the machine gun fired, a half-meter-long spray from the muzzle would be sprayed out.
The flames and the conspicuous machine gunner are more likely to receive special attention from the enemy.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Compared with the roar of cannons and the sound of aerial bombs dropped by flying aircraft, the bombing of a squadron of more than 20 aircraft caused the Japanese artillery to blast into the sky, which was originally shrouded
The artillery shells of the Hainan Army Tank Regiment suddenly became sparse.
"Follow me from the guard battalion! Except for the logistics cooks and civilian personnel, all other combat units will come to the front line for me!" Jiang Tao shouted loudly.
The front line, which had gradually seen the momentum of victory, was crumbling under the crazy counterattack of the Japanese soldiers, and the Japanese almost broke through the front line. Therefore, Jiang Tao ordered all combatants in the division to participate in the battle, and they must be under the control of the tank regiment.
Withstood the Japanese army's final desperate counterattack before the Japanese army's line was torn apart.
At the same time, the independent tank regiment of the Hainan Army under the command of Wu Shaoting was running wildly on the Japanese positions. The tanks running on the plains were not something that the futile Japanese army could easily stop. They were crushed directly when encountering wires, and were equally straightforward when encountering trenches.
Driving past, the Japanese army's simple machine gun position was as fragile as paper under the 55mm caliber tank gun.
"Is there any movement from the National Army in the city?" Li Weidong asked. Because the Hainan Army had just arrived in Guangzhou and faced the attack of the Japanese division, it had not yet occupied Guangdong City, and most of the area was still in the hands of the National Army.
"No! More than 3,000 people from the 73rd Division of the National Army are still in the city! Do you need to contact them?" replied an army staff officer behind him, who was the officer responsible for negotiating with the National Army.
Nanjing, National Government.
Dai Li, the head of the military command, wearing a Green Revolutionary Army uniform, stood in front of Chiang Kai-shek and reported: "Chairman! The Hainan Army arrived at Guangzhou City this afternoon and is now fighting the Japanese Army's 1st Division!"
Chiang Kai-shek listened to Dai Li's report and pondered for a long time before saying: "Jingzhi, do you think the Hainan Army can defend Guangzhou City?"
Chiang Kai-shek knew very well the combat effectiveness of the main Japanese divisions. Often when faced with an attack by a Japanese division, the National Army would have to use three or even four divisions to withstand it. To eliminate a Japanese division in an organized way, during the battle between the two sides
Never appeared before!
After fighting the Japanese army for half a year, a large number of veterans were consumed on the battlefields in the north and the Battle of Songhu. The newly recruited student soldiers are still unable to hold a gun, let alone fight on the battlefield. The current government desperately needs a victory.
To encourage people's hearts.
"Report to the Chairman, the Hainan Army has surrounded the Japanese division!" a major staff officer of the National Army shouted excitedly while holding a telegram.
"They are so fast!" Li Zongren on the side sighed. He knew that the Hainan Army was very powerful, but he did not expect to be able to surround the Japanese troops so quickly.
"Chairman! What do you think about the troops of the 73rd Division of the Central Army?" One of the senior officers asked at this time, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the room.
The corner of Li Zongren's mouth on the side couldn't help but twitch twice. This was simply because he didn't open a certain pot. I didn't know what the chairman would think. For a while, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Chiang Kai-shek glanced at the officer, then at the people in the headquarters, and then said decisively: "Now that the country is facing a national crisis, don't keep thinking about small things! Give them orders and let them obey the instructions of the Hainan Army.
!”
At this time, the Hainan Army's tank regiment had torn apart the Japanese central position. The steel tracks directly crushed the Japanese defensive position, and the loaded heavy machine guns continued to shoot at the surrounding Japanese soldiers who had nowhere to hide.
"Boom! Boom!" Several more artillery shells were fired, and a mortar position built by the Japanese was blown up into the sky.
"Car No. 301! There is a 75mm mountain gun behind you, be careful!" Hainan Army driver No. 307 informed the friendly tanks beside him through the radio.
"Got it!" After hearing this, the driver of Tank No. 301 immediately began to rotate the turret. Before the Japanese army could fire, a blasting bomb passed over and a deformed gun wheel rolled down from the sky.
"Keep charging!" Wu Shaoting decisively gave the order to continue charging. The tank must continue to attack, leaving the enemy with no ability to react.
The Japanese troops on the front line were originally facing the attack of the Hainan Army infantry unit, but now they were attacked from behind by the tank regiment. The only line of defense collapsed immediately, and then the tank regiment successfully connected with the Hainan Army infantry unit.
And Wu Shaoting profoundly implemented the combat skills that Li Weidong once said. Wherever there are more Japanese soldiers, just charge there! Crush all the enemies in front of you.
Wu Shaoting further implemented this approach. He divided the tank regiment into two detachments, covering the infantry to divide and surround the Japanese troops.
"The Hainan Army will be a serious problem for the Japanese Empire!!" Inoue Harano said with certainty, looking at the large plumes of smoke and dust that the Hainan Army tank regiment rolled up when they charged.
"Order all artillery to block the Hainan Army's tanks!" Then, Inoue Harano gritted his teeth and ordered. He knew that he might not be able to escape this time, but even if he died, he would destroy the powerful tank force of the Hainan Army.
In his mind, these Hainan Army tanks were purchased internationally and were accumulated over a long period of time. Destroying them would make the Hainan Army Tank Regiment unable to recover. And if he knew that as long as Li Weidong's base was there, he could
If you continue to produce tanks, will you vomit blood?
"Report! The National Army troops in the city have left the city and want to attack our right wing!" Gao, a senior officer from the division headquarters, ran over to report.
It can be said that the Japanese army is now in trouble. The troops were scattered by tanks. Before they had time to integrate, they encountered the National Army troops who took advantage of the situation.
"Follow me, brothers, kill the Japanese!" someone in the direction of the National Army troops shouted. They followed the direction of the gap in the Japanese defense line that the Hainan Army had torn open. In an instant, the Japanese troops were overturned by their defeated generals.
After the torture of defeat, they were filled with hatred and refused to accept prisoners at all. Moreover, this was a war about the rise and fall of the nation and there was no mercy at all. They followed the traces of the tank tracks and met the trenches where the Japanese troops were huddled.
He used a grenade to help the Japanese soldiers who were seriously injured and fell to the ground, and picked up the Japanese weapons left on the ground. Many soldiers had old Hanyang-made rifles with smooth rifling in their hands, and they shot and killed the Japanese soldiers with a little unfamiliarity.
