This round of shelling was much more intimidating to the Japanese outside the west gate of Gao'an than the previous one. The round just now was just a test fire, but this round is an area-covering shelling, and the sound of "duh" can't be heard. , five minutes later, more than half of the 500 or so remaining knights of Sanada Gouyu's tribe were immediately dead, and the remaining dozens of people were also thrown off their horses or injured. Let alone launch an attack, they could not escape. ,
Liu Zheliang was naturally satisfied with this round of rapid fire. He said to Wu Jingxiang: "Okay, now go support Chief of Staff Chen." Then, he changed the channel, connected to Chen Liangyu, and said: "Old Chen, what are you doing? What about the side, I will take advantage of the situation and crush it, and the artillery regiment will now be under your command."
A few seconds later, Chen Liangyu's answer came: "Received."
Liu Zheliang changed the channel back, then turned on a radio cassette player in the car, put a cassette tape in, and shouted: "Brothers, now is the time for us to avenge the shame of the Lion Gate. Kill." After shouting, he He pulled the microphone of the car amplifier and put it in front of the radio speaker, then pressed the play button.
"Tick, tick, tick," the charge horn sounded, and then the "March of the Broadsword" sounded: the broadsword chopped off the devil's head, brothers armed across the country...
The charge on the West Gate side was broadcast through the loudspeaker. On the South Gate side, Wu Jingxiang's regiment, under the command of Chen Liangyu, mobilized the muzzles and fired wildly at the south bank of Jinjiang River.
The communication tools of the Japanese army are still quite primitive. In addition to manual communication, it is remote radio communication. From this point of view alone, this is an unequal battle. The Second Academy Division has walkie-talkies that can contact and communicate at any time. This makes Liu Zheliang He and Chen Liangyu were able to understand the battle situation at the West Gate and South Gate by exchanging information and quickly make targeted troop adjustments. On the other hand, in the 106th Division, even though Zhongdao Jingcun was very strategic and his subordinates were very desperate, compared to Xue Xue As far as Bingjun is concerned, every strategic adjustment they have has to be delayed for ten minutes or even half an hour before it can be implemented, but it is far behind the adjustment speed of Xuebingjun.
This heavy snowfall was originally a good thing for the 106th Division, which was on the offensive side. The heavy snowfall and freezing conditions turned many natural dangers into smooth roads. However, because in the previous reconnaissance operations, the 106th Division's reconnaissance troops did not achieve anything. Advantage, a squadron of Japanese scouts did not even know that the defenders in Gao'an City had artillery units. Therefore, from the perspective of "knowing yourself and the enemy", the 106th Division was also at a disadvantage.
There are actually only a few factors that determine the outcome of a battle. The 106th Division on the attacking side has almost no territory. When the Second Xue Division did not counterattack, Zhongdao Jingcun was only afraid of its artillery. Now, once the Second Xue Division The entire division counterattacked, revealing all its hidden strength. He and Akiyama Yoshitaka immediately felt a mountain of pressure.
When Wu Jingxiang commanded the artillery regiment to bombard the west gate, he was very cautious because he was worried about accidentally injuring his own people, and asked the county to conduct a test firing. But now, knowing that the south bank of Jinjiang River is where the main force of the Japanese army is located, his command Seemingly unscrupulous, "Brothers, adjust one scale after two rounds, don't stop, keep firing." "First Battalion, move a little to the left." "Second Battalion, adjust down two scales."...
The shelling was continuous and violent, and continued to extend backwards, which caused great damage to the little devils. Digging trenches on the frozen ground was a particularly troublesome matter. The main force of the West Route Army commanded by Okamura dug almost seven or eight trenches. It only took two hours to dig two tank trenches and a few trenches. Nakajima only had more than three regiments of troops in total, and they had to be dispersed in two places. Therefore, although some trenches were dug, they were only used as the offensive front. The preliminary fortifications were very shallow and could not withstand the heavy artillery bombardment of Wu Jingxiang regiment.
Ten minutes after the bombardment, the Japanese army at the South Gate suffered casualties of a large group. This made Nakajima Jingcun no longer able to remain calm. This was not the first time he had dealt with the Xuebing Army. Nakajima understood the characteristics of the Xuebing Army's artillery. Knowing that they were not like the Central Army who had to worry about insufficient ammunition supply when firing artillery, so holding on patiently would only increase casualties. The best way was to evacuate the position immediately. He was decisive and immediately ordered Shimamura to Zhengnan divided the troops into two sides, and at the same time ordered Akiyama Yoshitaka to immediately call Okamura to request reinforcements.
Zhongdao Jingcun is known as the "Fox of Long Island". In terms of command ability, he really has the demeanor of a famous general. However, he didn't know that Chen Liangyu had already sent out his most elite scouts, and these scouts were extremely courageous. Lurking on the south bank of Jinjiang River, although he immediately made the right decision, it failed to have any substantive effect. With these scouts providing the enemy's precise location, the shelling of Wu Jingxiang's artillery regiment immediately became surgical. As skillful as a knife, under the command of Wu Jingxiang, the artillery regiment took the battalion as a unit and began to chase and beat the little Japs, causing the Japs of the 136th Regiment to be miserable.
The artillery fire began to extend to both sides. Chen Liangyu shouted and the "tick-tick" charge bugle sounded. The Nanmen students who had been unable to restrain themselves immediately shouted and rushed towards the Jinjiang River.
The battle at Ximen has already decided the winner.
After Wang Changyun went up with the security company for reinforcements, he never retreated. Liu Zheliang had just played the "March of the Broadsword" over there. He waved his hand and shouted: "Brothers, charge." He took the lead and rushed towards him. The little devils below the high ground rushed over,
At the same time, facing counterattacks from the north and east cadets, Kijima Kasugao wanted to hold on for a while, but his anti-tank gunners had no way to deal with the opponent's tanks. After the north was broken through, the 113th Regiment continued. When he came down, he was attacked from both sides. He sized up the situation, left two squadrons to snipe the enemy, and led other troops to move closer to the main force of Zhongdao.
Kijima's order was outrageous. Facing the chariot troops led by Liu Zheliang himself, if he led the entire regiment to counterattack using a simple offensive front position, although he might not win, he would definitely be able to hold on for a while longer, and he would Causing certain casualties to the Xuebing Army,
He only left two squadrons of Japs to defend. In fact, it was the same as the whole army fled. Four "Mandrills" took the lead, and a total of nearly 4,000 soldiers attacked from the east and north sides at the same time. The Japs from the two squadrons he left behind were Just like two pebbles in a dry stream, when the torrent comes, they only make a few ripples and are instantly submerged.
The two Japs left behind in the squadron were indeed ferocious, and their fighting style was completely desperate. However, facing the huge and sturdy body of the "Mandrill" and the fierce fire of the Wei Qing assault rifle, their desperate efforts only made them die faster. It's just a worse death,
Four "mandrills" ran directly through the crowd of Japanese soldiers. Liu Zheliang, who was following closely, shouted to Wang Changyun in the majestic singing of "March of the Broadsword": "Wang Changyun, I leave it to you, speed up a little faster." and then directly. Commanded the tank troops to pursue the main force of the escaping 113th Regiment.
