Chapter 779: If a friend comes from afar, he will be killed even though he is far away!
At this moment, the communications staff officer of the Mongolian Army came over quickly with a telegram in his hand.
"Report to the Commander!"
The communications staff officer suddenly said to Amakasu Shigetaro: "Admiral General Okamura Neiji, commander of the North China Front, called!"
"read!"
Amakasu Jutaro waved his hand expressionlessly and said.
He knew without guessing that it must be another telegram from Okamura Neiji urging the main force of the troops stationed in Mongolia to quickly go to Datong.
"Hi!" the communications staff officer lowered his head first, then held the telegram in both hands and read, "The Eighth Route Army has built defensive positions in the area of Gudian and Huayuantun, north of Datong City, and orders your troops to go to Datong as soon as possible to defeat the Eighth Route Army's defense line. The North China Front will
Send out a flying team to cooperate with your troops in combat, His Majesty the Emperor will be on board, and the Japanese Locust Army will be on board!"
Okamura Neiji requested tactical guidance from the base camp, and the base camp finally agreed to transfer a flying team from the Kwantung Army to the North China Front Army to support the operation.
As for those five divisions, they can't come for the time being.
It takes a lot of time to mobilize troops from the Kwantung Army and Southeast Asia to North China, let alone mobilize combat supplies.
As for the information that the Japanese army discovered that the Eighth Route Army had built defensive positions in the Gudian and Huayuantun areas.
It was discovered by reconnaissance planes and fighter jets of the Japanese North China Front when they went to Datong for reconnaissance.
The Japanese North China Front originally had only about 30 aircraft left, but 8 aircraft were shot down in Taiyuan, and now there are only more than 0 aircraft left.
The four battlefields of Datong, Taiyuan, Yangquan and Shouyang all require aircraft support, and the aircraft in the hands of Okamura Neji are seriously insufficient.
As for the Eighth Route Army's artillery positions, Japanese fighter jets and reconnaissance planes discovered some, but they could not be sure whether they were real.
Because the Eighth Route Army put up a lot of camouflage nets around Datong, some of them must be real artillery positions, and some of them are fake.
The Japanese pilots did not dare conduct low-altitude reconnaissance, because once they lowered their altitude, they would be attacked by intensive anti-aircraft firepower from the Eighth Route Army.
Amakasu Jutaro's eyes lit up slightly: "Yoshi!"
The Japanese army did not have an air force. The navy and army aviation units were separate, and the organization of aviation formations was very complicated.
There are flying squadrons with about 0 aircraft, and there are flying squadrons with 4,0 aircraft.
Looking at it this way, the North China Front Army can dispatch at least 0 aircraft to reinforce the main force of the Mongolian Army.
Although the number of aircraft is not large and cannot determine the outcome of the battle, having aircraft is better than not having one, right?
Jutaro Amakasu said energetically to the communications staff officer.
"Call General Okamura Neji immediately!"
"The 3rd Chariot Division and 3rd Brigade have joined the 6th Division in Gaoyang County and are heading to Datong immediately!"
"Commander Okamura, please order the 1st Division to prepare for counterattack, and work together to defeat the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop!"
The old Japanese are very powerful. The Eighth Route Army attacking the 1st Division stationed in Datong has a very strong combat effectiveness.
Relying solely on the main force of the Mongolian army and the air support of a flying squadron, the Locust Army has little chance of winning.
But with the addition of the 1st Division, especially the 6th Heavy Artillery Regiment of the 1st Division, the Locust Army has a great chance of winning.
After all, this is a strategic-level weapon of the Japanese army.
"Hi!"
The communications staff member suddenly lowered his head, quickly drafted a telegram based on Jutaro Amakasu's words, gave it to Jutaro Amakasu to sign, then turned around and left quickly.
After the communications staff member left, Jutaro Amakasu's eyes and expression suddenly became cold and resolute: "Send the order and march to Datong immediately!"
"Hi--"
Shigenori Kuroda, Issaku Nishihara and Kanji Nagasugaoka all bowed their heads.
Not long after, the 6th Division, the 3rd Tank Division and the 3rd Brigade drove along the highway in the direction of Datong.
at the same time.
The North China Front Army Headquarters dispatched reconnaissance aircraft and fighter jets to conduct aerial reconnaissance on the road from Gaoyang County to Datong.
Especially in locations suitable for ambush, key aerial reconnaissance is implemented.
After all, the 3rd Tank Division is one of the few strategic-level troops of Okamura Neiji and even the entire Japanese Army.
If the 3rd Tank Division was ambushed and destroyed halfway, the Japanese army would suffer huge losses.
Although according to aerial reconnaissance, the main force of the Eighth Route Army is still outside Datong City, the Eighth Route Army is full of tricks and no one can say whether the Eighth Route Army will quietly ambush halfway at night.
The Japanese army had a team of more than 30,000 people, although the Eighth Route Army was not so easy to ambush.
However, more than 10,000 people in the Japanese 1st Division were ambushed, and the Japanese army had already been ambushed and left a psychological shadow.
Approaching Datong, the Japanese troops stationed in Mongolia became increasingly cautious, constantly sending out reconnaissance cavalry to conduct repeated reconnaissance of suspicious locations. The width of the reconnaissance was expanded to 3 kilometers on both sides of the road.
Until the next morning.
Shigetaro Amakasu led the main force of the Mongolian troops to the outside of Datong City and confronted the main force of the Eighth Route Army.
…
"Report to the head of the regiment, there was a firefight with the Japanese reconnaissance cavalry at the forward position, and more than 30 Japanese cavalry were killed!"
"The observation post discovered a large number of Japanese troops, no less than 30,000!"
"Discovered a large number of Japanese light and medium tanks, as well as armored vehicles!"
Pieces of intelligence about the Japanese army were passed to the Eighth Route Army headquarters.
"I have been waiting for two days, and the little devils stationed in the Mongolian army have finally arrived!"
Upon hearing the news, Kong Jie's tone and eyes were not solemn, but there was a touch of excitement on his face.
It was as if an old friend who had been waiting for a long time arrived, and he had already prepared wine and food to entertain him.
If a friend comes from afar, he will be killed even though he is far away!
After a pause, Kong Jie looked at the chief of staff aside: "Are the forward positions ready?"
The chief of staff of the independent regiment sounded confident: "We are all ready, just waiting for the little devils to attack!"
"very good!"
Kong Jie knocked the pipe in his hand on the edge of the table, shook out the cigarette butts from the pipe, and said in a harsh tone:
"In this battle, we will let the little devils stationed in the Mongolian army taste once again what it was like to be slaughtered as pigs by the Soviet army in Nomenkan."
Although this battle was not as large-scale as the original Battle of Nomenkan.
But the Eighth Route Army had large-caliber heavy artillery, as well as Leopard and Jiafei tanks. In terms of artillery firepower and tank firepower, it completely crushed the Japs.
As for the Japanese's 3rd Chariot Division, it is indeed a big threat.
However, the Eighth Route Army's Leopard tanks have been tested and achieved a score of zero to dozens in the Battle of Xinzhou.
The tanks of the New Regiment that were destroyed in that battle were destroyed by the Japanese artillery regiment and aircraft.
The Japanese's pods can't beat the tanks of the Eighth Route Army. How useless are they?
That is to say, the Panther tank was called a heavy tank by the Japanese army in the Asian battlefield.
The Japanese light tanks and medium tanks cannot be called tanks on the European battlefield, they can only be regarded as armored vehicles and lighters, because the Japanese tanks are too thin and have weak firepower.
Moreover, this business is what Ding Wei and Kong Jie really care about.
"More than 300 tanks and dozens of armored vehicles, what a good boy!"
Leader Ding Da sounded excited: "As long as we destroy or capture one, Boss Chen will give one to us. Lao Kong, it seems we are going to make a fortune!"
"Isn't it?" Kong Jie smiled slightly, "If Lao Li were here, I think this kid would be drooling all over the floor right now!"
Compared with the Battle of Nomenkan, except that there was no air support, the Eighth Route Army had heavy artillery and tanks.
Although there are not many tanks, they are small in number, have powerful firepower and strong defense.
Kong Jie picked up the holster from the table, then looked at Ding Wei: "Old Ding, I'll leave this place to you to keep an eye on."
"No problem." Ding Wei said confidently, "Lao Kong, just feel free to command the troops to fight against the Japanese troops stationed in Mongolia. With me, Ding Wei, watching here, not even a Japanese soldier in Datong City will leave the city!"
Afterwards, Ding Wei and Kong Jie saluted each other with a military salute.
Kong Jie walked out with the chief of staff, deputy commander and several combat staff officers of the independent regiment.
The new headquarters has long been built, and Kong Jie will go there to command the main forces of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment, as well as the heavy firepower of the New Regiment to fight against the Japanese troops stationed in Mongolia.
Kong Jie was relieved to leave the backing of the main force to Ding Wei.
…
Outside Yangquan City.
Shi Nao Mountain.
"￥#!&*"
"@#￥*&!"
At the Eighth Route Army's former enemy headquarters, Li Yunlong sneezed twice.
Li Yunlong cursed: "Damn it, who is thinking about me behind my back again?"
At present, the street fighting in Yangquan City is still continuing.
As the fighting continued, the Eighth Route Army occupied more and more streets and houses, leaving less than 000 Japanese soldiers struggling to hold on.
If the Japanese reinforcements don't come, it will only be a matter of time before the Japanese, numbering less than 000, are wiped out.
certainly.
Even if the Japanese reinforcements could arrive, they would not be able to save the 37th Division from being wiped out.
Even if Japan's Amaterasu comes, he can't save the 37th Division.
The main force of the Eighth Route Army that attacked Datong was 60,000 elite. Unless the Japanese army came with more than four second-line divisions, they would have the strength to compete with the Eighth Route Army.
The battle in Shouyang is similar to the battle in Yangquan City.
There is not much suspense in the battle between Yangquan and Shouyang, while the Taiyuan side is covering and assisting.
Although the division commander made cover and assist the main attack, with the division commander personally directing the attack, Li Yunlong didn't have to worry about it at all.
Therefore, Li Yunlong focused his attention on Datong.
Zhao Gang glanced at Li Yunlong angrily: "Miss you? I think someone is calling you a brat behind your back, right?"
"Someone scolded me?" Li Yunlong sneered, "It must be the Japanese scolding me behind my back. These sons of bitches, I hate people scolding me behind my back the most."
In this battle, the main force of the Wanba Route Army commanded by Li Yunlong defeated the Japanese until they lost their armor. It was normal for the Japanese to scold Li Yunlong.
The Japs should already know that the commander-in-chief of this battle is Li Yunlong.
Even if you guess it, you can guess it. Li Yunlong's tactics are difficult to figure out, but his command style is still relatively obvious.
Once Li Yunlong finds an opportunity, he will definitely pounce on it like a mad dog.
Moreover, Li Yunlong would only take action when he was absolutely sure to defeat the enemy.
After all, wielding a sword is a kind of spirit. If you choose an opponent you can't beat to wield a sword, you would be a fool.
Zhao Gang's expression changed and he asked: "In the past two days, you have been looking at Datong on the map. Do you see anything special about it?"
"I didn't see the fame." Li Yunlong raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said in an excited tone, "Old Li only knows that our Eighth Route Army is going to make a fortune again!" End of chapter
