Liu Shuyun, the telegraph operator of the 406th Regiment, was sitting next to Lei Jianhong. Before he could answer, Lei Jianhong snatched the microphone from his hand and shouted: "I am Lei Jianhong, Commander Geng. Take this gift." Come."
Du Haonan consciously handed the microphone to Geng Liang, who replied to Lei Jianhong: "I am Geng Liang, Commander Lei. The Japanese army has begun to retreat, but their tanks are too heavy and the speed is very slow on the sand. If If you can arrive within a quarter of an hour, you can grab more than twenty heavy tanks by their tails, which can be considered a great gift."
"Please tell me the exact location."
Looking at the map, Geng Liang said: "Based on your location, it's two o'clock."
"I accept this great gift, thank you."
"polite."
The emergence of two butterflies, Ouyang Yun and Koizumi Toshiichiro, was revolutionary in promoting the Japanese military technology. Take tanks as an example. At that time and space, except for the Type 97 medium-sized tank, the Japanese army could handle other tanks. It's like a toy, either like a bean tank that can only show off its power in front of infantry, or like a Type 100 heavy tank, which weighs 100 tons and can actually only be used as a mobile turret. Now, because The emergence of the Type 95 heavy tank has changed this history. First of all, this is a truly heavy tank. In terms of armor, power system and firepower configuration, it is much better than the new Type 99. The goods must be professional; secondly, this type of tank is also equipped with a radio,
There are a total of twenty-five Type 95 heavy tanks, and they belong to the independent Second Tank Brigade directly under the Second Army Headquarters. Of course, now they are only in the name of a brigade, and their actual organization is only Brigade plan, Captain Onohana Taro, Colonel. Please pay attention to this "Colonel". Japanese army captains usually have the rank of Major, but Ono is appointed with the rank of Colonel. This shows that the riverside attaches great importance to this unit. Onohana Taro has He has the experience of studying in Germany, and according to his own words, he once interned with Guderian and has a good understanding of today's most advanced tank tactics.
I don’t know if it was because of this pride. After the retreat order was issued, Ono became angry. He yelled directly on the walkie-talkie to Murano San who was delivering the order: "Why, I need a reason." He also said something. He didn't shout out: "This is my first battle." Yes, Colonel Ono, who had high hopes from the riverside, was participating in actual combat for the first time.
Ono has a special status. Although he is only a captain, his status as a captain and the fact that he is deeply favored by Commander Hebei are there. Murano does not dare to argue with him, so he can only say truthfully: "This belongs to Lord Hebei." Order, it is said that the Tachibana Regiment was defeated in Wenyan Town."
"Ba Ge, this stupid pig in Tachibana Town has so many Zina pigs as shields, and thousands of peaceful and public troops for him to drive, and he was defeated in such a short time..."
"Ono-kun, please carry out the orders of the headquarters."
The unnamed sandy land was the main direction of the Japanese army's attack, so all the elite troops of the 104th Regiment were deployed, including a brigade-sized mountain artillery unit. It was these mountain artillery units that made the retreat of the Japanese army difficult, making it difficult to disembark and board the ship. , at this time, more than 2,000 ground troops of the 104th Regiment had boarded the south bank, and a total of twelve 75mm mountain cannons from the mountain artillery brigade had also set up positions on the sand. The sand was soft and it was not easy for the mountain cannons to move. In order to To speed up the retreat, Murano asked the infantry to help, so a large group of Japanese soldiers carried Type 15 semi-automatic rifles, hunched over, and chanted to help carry the mountain cannon.
After starting to retreat, the Japanese army stopped firing flares, so the lights on the Qiantang River task force ships and the tail lights of the Type 95 heavy tank were particularly dazzling in the dark night. Lei Jianhong's tank regiment After running wildly for ten minutes, this continuous line of lights appeared in front of him.
"There is a minefield ahead, go over there." Lei Jianhong ordered calmly, and then Lei Ying called the duck, hoping that Geng Liang's department could provide them with cover. Lei Jianhong's tank regiment was a pure tank unit and was not equipped with infantry. This In fact, this was also the reason why Geng Liang cheerfully took the initiative to give him a big gift. Without Mandrills, they simply could not compete with the Japanese army with more than a dozen Platypuses. Even if they wanted to take advantage of the victory, they would not have the capital to pursue them.
Geng Liang readily agreed and even said he would send gifts to the West.
The military situation was urgent, and Lei Jianhong was not in the mood to chat with him, so he said: "I'll wait for you for ten minutes." Then he ordered the Mandrill Battalion to go to the thunder array.
The Xuebing Army laid more than 3,000 infantry mines on the nameless sand. The Japanese Type 95 heavy tanks have only managed to destroy a few hundred mines so far. Lei Jianhong's counterattack cannot be separated from Geng Liang's cover. If the mines on the counterattack route are not cleared, it will not be a good thing if one of your own people is injured.
The 28 Mandrills were divided into three rows and stormed into the minefield aggressively. Fires burst out and explosions continued, which immediately shocked Konohana Taro, who had retreated behind the infantry force. From a distance of about three thousand meters, he could Clearly seeing the "graceful silhouette" of the Mandrill tank in the fireball, Ono was first surprised and then delighted: "The Chinese tank troops, Xixi, are all here. Follow my orders and turn immediately to prepare to meet the enemy."
Murano San discovered the enemy situation at the same time. He did not get as excited as Ono. Instead, he immediately called Hebian and asked for instructions on the next step: "We cannot complete the retreat before the Chinese chariot troops break through the thunder formation. Please give instructions." .”
Because of this situation, Hebian had no choice at all. He first asked nonsense: "What is the size of the enemy's army?" Then he came to his senses and ordered: "First form a defensive formation, and wait until the enemy's entire lineup is revealed."
Before Geng Liang ordered the entire army to fight back with Lei Jianhong, he also reported to Ye Zhao.
The student soldiers have always taken advantage of them, and Ye Zhao and the others had previously envisioned that they were not satisfied with just defending, but wanted to take the opportunity to launch a counterattack, so he agreed to Geng Liang's combat requirements without hesitation. Then he called Shi Zhengguo and asked them to return to Xiaoshan immediately. After that, he said to Zhang Gongming: "If Xiang Ke can break through at Yuan Pu, how about we simply attack Hangzhou directly."
"There are not enough troops. The Japanese army has nearly two divisions and two divisions of the Korean Communist Army in the Hangzhou area. If their troops are withdrawn, the assault troops may be outnumbered."
"Let Wang Hai provide air support so that our long-range aviation division can come back."
"I still don't agree. Our military strength in Xiaoshan is still too thin. Northern Zhejiang is no better than southern Zhejiang. Our popular foundation is too poor. If we can't win a quick victory, once the main force of Nishio Juzo arrives, we will be completely passive. Already."
"Then let's wait and see," Ye Zhao said, a name flashed in his mind, and he thought: "It would be great if Fox Thirteen could completely intercept Xiwei's troops in the Yangtze River Delta."
