"Brothers, charge!" "For victory, for the fellow countrymen, and for the 40 million compatriots!" "Kill!" The 40 cars in front opened the road to attract firepower, and the 40 full cars behind them followed closely, carrying more than 2,000 officers and soldiers.
Afterwards, they launched an all-out charge towards the Japanese solid defensive front! "Baga Ya Road!" "Shoot, throw silk, throw the string!" "Kill these damn Chinese pigs for me! Shoot!" "Shoot!"
, all of them! Taoji Kai..."
Forty cars lined up in a row and rushed madly, and their images expanded rapidly in the retina, just like thousands of troops roaring in! Every soldier in the Japanese frontier position was dumbfounded. They had no idea that the Jiaodong Independent Brigade would be so frantic.
, using cars as armored vehicles to clear the way! Although these cars have no protective armor and cannot withstand heavy machine guns and anti-aircraft guns, they can advance at speeds of up to sixty or seventy kilometers, and can rush over in just 10 minutes from a short distance of 10 kilometers.
!
Once the Jiaodong Independent Brigade attacks the forward position, it will be an absolute nightmare for the Japanese's carefully arranged defense line! Seeing this, the Japanese frontline commanders of the Jiaodong Independent Brigade 1st took out their command swords and angrily ordered the soldiers to start
They opened fire wildly to block the independent brigade convoy! For a time, all kinds of firepower including 38-type cover, crooked machine gun, Type 92 heavy machine gun, as well as mortars, grenade launchers, and combat anti-aircraft guns were seen spitting out tongues of flame, forming a
A network of extremely powerful firepower.
However, the drivers of the 40 cars in the lead had already put life and death at risk. When they saw the bullets coming, they all leaned down to control the cars and continued to rush forward in the hail of bullets! With a clanging sound, countless bullets came like a torrential rain, shattering the shields.
The windshield penetrated the engine on the front of the car, got into the car body, and left the front of the car full of holes!
Thanks to the high-quality products produced in Shanghai, these transport trucks are very solid and high-quality, and the firepower of bullets alone will not be able to stop their advance for a while! The soldiers in the rear compartment all prostrate on the ground, letting the extremely fast and bumpy vehicles
The body was hit by the physical impact, enduring the tremendous pain, clutching the steel gun in his hand, ready for a life-and-death battle at any time! Boom boom boom, dozens of Japanese mortars fired wildly, and shells continued to explode around the convoy, setting off thick clouds of smoke.
The smoke and dust are flying!
However, in the face of a high-speed sprinting convoy, it is difficult for these mortars to lock and hit the target, and most of the shells are completely empty! On the contrary, the Japanese combat artillery and Japanese tanks at the forward position have exerted considerable power! Boom,
A high-speed sprint car was hit by a Japanese tank. The front of the car was blown apart and turned into a ball of fire. The driver of the car was martyred on the spot!
However, the car with the direction locked and the accelerator locked still continued to push forward! Boom, another car was hit by the Japanese anti-aircraft artillery and turned into a ball of fire. The car continued to push forward for several seconds.
It stopped suddenly after ten meters away! "Brothers, get out of the car and fight with the Japanese!" "Kill!"
After nearly ten minutes of desperate charge, only 35 cars broke through the Japanese barbed wire fence and rushed to a place less than 10 meters away from the Japanese frontline before suddenly stopping! When the car stopped, the soldiers on the car suddenly stopped.
They jumped out of the car one after another and started the most brutal close-range offensive and defensive battle with the help of the bunker formed by the cars! Boom boom boom!
The soldiers withstood the fierce Japanese firepower and artillery attacks. First, they fired several grenades at the Japanese trenches, directly blasting the Japanese trenches into howling ghosts. While the smoke was still lingering, everyone picked up their assault rifles and fired.
He rushed forward as fast as he could! "Go to hell, you little devil!" "Kill one without losing, kill two and gain one!" "Kill!"
More than 700 soldiers shouted slogans with red eyes, jumped directly into the 5-kilometer-long Japanese trench, and fought hand-to-hand with the Japanese in the trench! As soon as they jumped into the trench, everyone targeted the nearest Japanese.
, they all pulled the triggers and fired mercilessly, and the violent gunshots were particularly harsh in the tunnel!
At this time, the strong physical fitness, powerful automatic firepower and bulletproof suits of the independent brigade soldiers gave full play to their strong advantages. The close combat showed a one-sided massacre from the beginning! "Bagaya road!" "Death, death, death"
!" Naturally, the extremely ferocious Japanese soldiers would not sit still and wait for death. They turned their guns one after another, fired grenades and charged the Jiaodong Independent Brigade soldiers in the trenches in exchange for their lives!
Boom boom boom, under the desperate self-destruction attack of many Japanese soldiers, the soldiers of the Jiaodong Independent Brigade suffered a lot of casualties. Thanks to the advantage of automatic firepower, many Japanese soldiers couldn't do it even if they wanted to sound the grenades and die together! Otherwise, after this process,
It would be great if only one or two hundred of the more than 700 soldiers who were subjected to hail of bullets and shelling could survive in the end! "Brothers, charge!" "Kill!" "Use rocket launchers to kill the Japanese tanks! Hurry!"
Soon, the follow-up troops also rushed to the first trench under the strong Japanese artillery fire. They jumped out of the carriages and joined in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese. For a while, the long trench turned into a life-and-death hell! "No! The Chinese army has already
Crazy! Hurry up and request support from the division commander immediately. The Chinese army has broken through our first trench and is about to launch a general attack on our second trench! The situation is extremely critical!"
Major General Sakai Hoji, commander of the 1st Independent Mixed Brigade, was dumbfounded. He had no idea that Jiang Qiang would be so crazy and treat seventy or eighty cars as disposable consumables! Sakai Hoji also underestimated the independent brigade.
Thanks to the soldiers' fearless spirit and ability to attack tough battles, they officially launched the general attack and within ten minutes they broke through the defense line with a crushing force and occupied the first trench!
In Hoji Sakai's original vision, even if the Chinese army without armor and tanks launched an all-out charge, the first line of defense would be able to hold on for at least two or three hours, causing at least thousands of casualties to the independent brigade!
And with the delay of two to three hours, the 10th Division will definitely close up and compress the encirclement, and the Japanese aviation brigade will fly to Ling County for indiscriminate bombing! In this way, the Jiaodong Independent Brigade will be huge.
They will also lose their armor and suffer heavy casualties. Even if they shrink back to Lingxian for defense again, the situation will be over by then and they will be completely annihilated sooner or later!
However, everything did not go according to the script expected by Sakai Hoji. Jiang Qiang did not follow common sense at all, and directly cut off his wrists and took out all the motor vehicles as an assault force! As of now, Sakai Hoji can only urgently send electricity to Iso
Gu Lianjie hopes that the 10th Division can step up its assault and jointly attack the Independent Brigade from the other three directions!
"Bagaya Road, how could this happen? Why was the first line of defense captured even after being unable to hold on for half an hour?" After receiving the news, Isotani Rensuke was immediately confused and his heart beat with anger.
Accelerating, his head was spinning, and he kept mumbling: "Are the 1st Independent Brigade a bunch of stupid pigs? If the Independent Brigade advances at this speed, doesn't it mean that they will be able to completely break through the defense line in less than an hour?
, the independent mixed 1st brigade is even in danger of being wiped out?" "Bagaya Road!"
Isotani Rensuke walked back and forth in the command post several times, pulled out a few handfuls of the few hairs on his head, and roared angrily: "Order the troops to attack across the board, even if they are thundering, we will rush up and bite them.
We must not let the Jiaodong Independent Brigade break through successfully!" The old Japanese really had no choice at this time. If he really allowed the Independent Brigade and the 243rd Brigade to break through directly, then he would really have lost his wife and soldiers, and made real money.
Became a joke and a disgrace!
Therefore, the old Japanese could only be ruthless and order the troops to advance at full speed, even if hundreds more people died in the minefield! "The Independent Brigade is indeed extraordinary, and it can actually break through the Japanese's tightly defended enemy in fifteen minutes.
A line of defense! If it were another army, even the Central German Arms Division, it would probably take half a day and cost thousands of lives to do it, right?"
Chen Bulei stood on top of the earthen city wall of Ling County, holding a telescope and looking far into the distance. He was truly impressed by the magnificent and fierce battle before him! In just a few days, Chen Bulei was shocked and gained too much knowledge.
, even his three views were refreshed again and again! Although the more he came into contact with him, the more he felt that Jiang Qiang was unpredictable and difficult to grasp, but Chen Builei became more and more passionate. He firmly believed that as long as he could win Jiang Qiang to Nanjing, he would definitely succeed.
It will bring endless surprises! "Chief of Staff Jiang! When will it be our turn for the 243rd Brigade to take the field? We can't just watch the brothers of the Independent Brigade fight hard!"
Yun Qichang, commander of the 243rd Brigade, found Jiang Qiang with red eyes at this time, and strongly demanded that the 243rd Brigade immediately join the battle. The Jiaodong Independent Brigade must not be allowed to charge alone! I speak with conscience, the 243rd Brigade has been under great pressure these days.
The Jiaodong Independent Brigade had too many people to take care of. If the Independent Brigade had not come to help Dezhou, they would have suffered more than half of the casualties, and there was even the danger of the entire army being annihilated! Although the total number of casualties in the 243rd Brigade is currently as high as more than 1,600, Yun Qichang still feels that
It’s a huge advantage!
Jiang Qiang chuckled and said: "Commander Yun, don't be anxious, the fun is yet to come! I estimate that the 10th Division will risk their lives to come to the rescue. We can still have a good time with them! There will be plenty of opportunities to kill Xiao Xiao.
Japs!" Jiang Qiang made a big decision in his mind. This time he was not just trying to break through successfully, but was also preparing to chew a piece of meat before leaving, so that the little Japs would have a good time, so as to avoid always being beaten.
Think of yourself as Tang Monk Meat! Upon hearing this, Yun Qichang suddenly smiled and nodded repeatedly: "I've been waiting for Chief of Staff Jiang's words, haha!
There is absolutely no coward in our 243rd Brigade. Chief of Staff Jiang can rest assured that he will arrange combat missions for us! Defending our country and avenging our dead brothers and fellow villagers is the common wish of all the officers and soldiers of our 243rd Brigade!" Jiang Qiang said with murderous intent!
Tengteng nodded and said: "Yes, I know! All the brothers in the 243rd Brigade are good people! Let us kill the little Japs today and avenge all the compatriots who died!"
"Order the troops to increase their attack intensity. The Jiaodong Independent Brigade and the 243rd Brigade have launched a general attack on the Japanese positions! We must take down the Japanese positions along the river in one go! Quick!" Looking across the river, Li Hanzhang could see the enemy positions several kilometers away.
The Independent Brigade has launched a general offensive, attacking the Japanese frontal positions desperately! Infected and affected by the powerful assault force of the Independent Brigade, Li Hanzhang also tried his best. He immediately waved his hand and continued to strengthen the offensive, rushing to cross the river regardless of the cost of casualties! Today after nearly
In the 3 hours of hard and bloody battle, the 74th Division had already sacrificed thousands of lives, and there were countless minor and serious injuries!
The narrow river has long been dyed red with the blood of the martyrs, and there are countless corpses of soldiers floating there. At first glance, it seems that there is an eternal sadness of millions of corpses lying on the ground and bleeding thousands of miles away! However, at this critical moment, Li Hanzhang still has to continue.
Gritting his teeth and persisting, he had to put enough pressure on the Japanese army so that the Japanese on the other side could not withdraw to support the frontal position that was being attacked by the Independent Brigade. Of course, Li Hanzhang's most hoped-for situation was to break through the Japanese defense line along the river and cooperate with the Independent Brigade and the 243rd Brigade.
A beautiful counter-encirclement and annihilation battle was fought!
It is best to capture alive or kill the Japs major general entrenched in the opposite village. In this way, the threat in Shandong will be greatly reduced. At least in a short period of time, the Japs will not dare to go on the rampage again! "Kill! Brothers, the Japs are going to do it."
It's over! If we work harder, we can rush over and rendezvous with the Independent Brigade!" "Eradicate all the little Japs and avenge the deaths of our brothers, compatriots and innocent people!"
More than half of the 439th Regiment of the 220th Brigade were killed, wounded and disabled. Now the main force attacking the earth bridge across the river at the entrance of the village is the 444th Regiment of the 222nd Brigade! After receiving the order, the regiment leader Colonel Guo Qijun immediately ordered the troops to strengthen fire cover. The first battalion organized a suicide squad to launch
Attack! This earthen bridge with a total length of less than 50 meters was built with donations from the gentry in the late Qing Dynasty. Now it has been riddled with craters by intense artillery fire, and transparent holes have appeared in several places!
The bridge was dyed red with the blood of the soldiers, and there were even many broken limbs scattered on the bridge. Hundreds of soldiers died on this small earth bridge! Boom boom boom! At the same time, the Japanese reinforcements came
The encircling troops also began to work hard. They no longer cared about the dense minefields, spread out skirmishers, and relied entirely on their flesh and blood to survive the minefields!
Jiang Qiang had already calculated that one day he would retreat from Dezhou City to Lingxian and then cross the river to return, so he divided his troops to garrison in Lingxian from the beginning to leave a way out for himself! Especially last night, Jiang Qiang was even more certain that the Japanese would be here.
They would follow, pursue, and rescue the attacked independent mixed first brigade, and they would plant nearly a thousand landmines regardless of the cost! Within a radius of 60 square kilometers, there were not only mines planted by the little devils themselves, but also mines planted by the Jiaodong Independent Brigade.
Although the Japanese were ruthless, it was not easy to rush out of the minefield in such a hurry!
I saw that the Japanese infantry detonated a landmine from time to time, which exploded the Japanese soldiers into pieces. All kinds of flesh, flesh, tissue and organ fragments flew everywhere, and the entire minefield turned into a hell on earth!
"How come there are so many landmines on Bagaya Road? Where did the Jiaodong Independent Brigade get so many arms?" The old devil Rensuke Isotani was bleeding in his heart. He knew that there were minefields and he would pay a high price.
, but they didn’t know that Yang Fan was so inhumane and had so many landmines deployed within dozens of square kilometers! “Let’s go, brothers, it’s time for us to set off! Just leave this empty city to the Japanese!”
After more than an hour of bloody fighting, the Independent Brigade and the 74th Division finally captured all the Japs' forward positions and compressed the surviving Japs into Wujiazhuang. The 1st Independent Mixed Brigade waited for the Jiaodong Independent Brigade to arrive as planned.
After Dexian and Lingxian, they quickly cut into Wujiazhuang. Not only did they build three trenches in the south and north, but they also built solid circular defenses in the village relying on earthen walls and residential buildings! Therefore, after knocking out the outer defensive positions,
Only the most difficult core position is left, and we might have to fight in the street!
"Haha, kill it! Order the artillery troops to cross the river and completely eliminate the little Japanese brigade. Today we are going to fight a battle of annihilation!" At the cost of two thousand lives, the 74th Division finally achieved something.
The enemy successfully broke through the Japanese defense line along the river and advanced directly to the outskirts of Wujiazhuang! Seeing that he was about to hit the headquarters of the Japanese independent mixed brigade, Li Hanzhang suddenly got a whiff of appetite and immediately ordered the troops to move forward. He would kill one of them no matter what today.
Let’s talk about the fully organized independent mixed brigade!
If he could really accomplish this unprecedented feat, Li Hanzhang said that he would still be smiling even if he died soon! "Director Chen, please move to Linyi County on the other side first! When we gnaw off the last hard bone, we can call the gold and withdraw our troops."
Haha!" Following the follow-up troops, Jiang Qiang, Chen Bui and others all arrived safely at the earth bridge at the entrance of Wujiazhuang Village across the river from Linyi County! "Okay! Let's go ahead then!"
Chen Bulei nodded and said seriously: "Chief of Staff Jiang, you are responsible for important responsibilities and the hope of the nation. Please do not put yourself in danger. I will wait for your safe return in Linyi County!" Chen Bulei knew that he had a few tricks up his sleeve.
A literati staying on the battlefield has no use other than causing chaos and increasing risks. He immediately stopped talking and quickly crossed the earth bridge to the other side of the river under the escort of his entourage! After seeing off Chen Brai, Jiang Qiang immediately turned to Huzi and said:
"Jiang Qiang, you immediately organize a security company to check that the vehicles can still drive. First, safely transfer all our medical staff and seriously injured people to Linyi County on the other side of the river! In addition, organize officers and soldiers to repair fortifications and clear obstacles.
Get ready for battle! Move quickly, the enemy will bite you soon! We don't have much time to waste!" Huzi saluted and said: "I promise to complete the mission! However, before that, please move the chief of staff.
Get to the other side of the river and leave the rest of the battle to us!"
Jiang Qiang glared and then laughed and cursed: "When did you start to learn to negotiate terms with me? Hurry up and execute the order. If you stop talking nonsense, I will send your front-line combat troops to be out of sight and out of mind!" "Chief of Staff!"
Huzi looked at Jiang Qiang sadly. After exchanging glances, he knew that his arms could not twist his thighs, so he could only go back quickly and shouted at the guard company not far away: "All the guards are here, follow me."
! Move quickly!" "Chief of Staff Jiang, it's our turn to chew the hard nut now, right? Brothers have been holding it back for a long time, haha!"
At this moment, Yun Qichang found Jiang Qiang again, and once again demanded very firmly that he must join the battle to completely annihilate the Japanese independent mixed brigade headquarters! "Chief of Staff Jiang, Brigadier Yun! I finally see you, you have been suffering these days.
Yes!" Before Jiang Qiang had time to reply, Li Hanzhang came up with a group of senior officers and guards with smiles on their faces.
"Haha, Mr. Li, thanks to you risking your lives to save us this time, we were able to escape and ascend to heaven! I, Jiang, have remembered this kindness. If there is anything you need me for in the future, please feel free to ask!" Jiang Qiang said.
He made many promises with fists and fists, and I have to say that this time he was able to fight all the way from De County to this place, transforming the previous passive defense into a mobile encirclement and annihilation battle. The 74th Division really contributed a lot! Li Hanzhang quickly waved his hand to praise him.
Said: "Where, where!
We only tried our best today. If you, the Independent Brigade and the 243rd Brigade, had not made the Japanese completely lose their temper, I am afraid we would not have been able to create such a good situation today even if we spent all our money!" "Haha, Master Li is being too modest.
!" Jiang Qiang smiled, then got back to the point and said: "Mr. Li, the situation is urgent now, so I won't be too polite to you!
We have the headquarters of the Japanese brigade in front of us, who are stubbornly resisting, and the Japanese pursuers will soon be surrounding us. We must continue our efforts and fight a fierce battle of annihilation!" Li Hanzhang nodded quickly and responded: "Commander Yang speaks quickly, absolutely.
It’s from the bottom of my heart! Let’s fight how you say, Brigadier Yang!” “Okay, then I’ll tell you the truth!”
Jiang Qiang nodded, and then said in a deep voice: "The Japanese pursuers will arrive soon. Our independent brigade and the main force of the 243rd Brigade are responsible for defending the position. We will come to the encirclement point for reinforcements and tear off a piece of flesh from the Japanese!"
The Japanese independent mixed brigade will be mainly attacked by your 74th Division. Each of our two brigades will dedicate a battalion to participate in the encirclement and annihilation. Commander Li and Brigade Commander Yun, what do you think of this plan?" "Haha, there is no problem at all! Our 74th Division guarantees it.
The mission is completed. I have pulled all the artillery units across the river. I can directly launch a general attack with just one order! Damn, this time I can fight a battle of annihilation. It is so relieved!"
Jiang Qiang's plan was exactly what he wanted. Li Hanzhang nodded and agreed without even thinking about it. One or two thousand people died today and they have to get back their money! "Okay, that's it! Then I'll go command and coordinate the troops now!"
"Yun Qichang is also very satisfied with Jiang Qiang's arrangements. In the future, if his troops participated in the battle to annihilate a Japanese brigade, it would not only be a great achievement, but also a supreme honor!
"Then it's settled! The operation to encircle and annihilate the Japs brigade headquarters can be a little more aggressive at the beginning. After most of the Japs' troops are eliminated, we need to slow down a bit! After we have eaten up the Japs' reinforcements, we can destroy them in one go.
The Japanese Brigade Headquarters!" Since we were encircling the point for reinforcements, we couldn't eat up the independent 1st Brigade Headquarters in one go. Instead, we used extreme pressure to cause the anxious Japanese rescue force to suffer a huge loss!
"Haha, that's how we should fight!" "No problem at all! We are going to eat a fat man in one bite today! It's so cool!" Jiang Qiang's suggestion once again made Li Hanzhang and Yun Qichang laugh from ear to ear, killing the little devil so happily.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
After formulating the combat strategy, Li Hanzhang, Yun Qichang and Yang Fan began to act separately, commanding their respective troops to attack and defend, and set up an iron wall formation just waiting for the Japanese to come and fight! "Baga Ya Road! The whole army immediately
In the assault, we must take advantage of the unstable foothold of the Chinese troops to severely damage them and rescue the 1st independent mixed brigade!"
Knowing that Jiang Qiang's Independent Brigade has successfully joined forces with the 74th Division, Isotani Rensuke can no longer hope to completely annihilate the Jiaodong Independent Brigade, but he still holds great hope to severely damage the Jiaodong Independent Brigade and recover for the losses suffered these days.
Some interest! "Hai! The Chinese army is so arrogant that they want to encircle and annihilate a brigade under our noses. They must pay a heavy price for this!" Colonel Changdi Bujiagui, the Japanese chief of staff, had his eyes red and bloodshot, and his voice was still
He was extremely hoarse. This was the first time he had lost his temper like this in more than ten years in the army! A series of miscalculations and a series of intolerable casualties made him almost crazy, but he was helpless against the independent brigade that was so close at hand.
