On the Datun Village line in the northeast of Wangwu Town, the Japanese troops coming out of Xinzhou also faced a similar situation to the Japanese troops in the south.
The Japanese army launched an attack at nightfall. As the artillery was suppressed by the helicopter gunships of the Anjia Army Army Aviation, the supporting firepower was seriously insufficient, and the Japanese army quickly fell into trouble.
However, Fujiwara Hidema, who didn't have many cards to play, had already made a desperate move. He sent out two regiments under his command and used the human sea tactics to attack the second regiment's defense line in turn.
The Second Regiment gathered all the mortars from each battalion and company, divided them into strike groups, tightly blocked the Japanese heavy machine gun, mortar and grenade positions, and made full use of the general machine gun and automatic rifle firepower, time and time again.
To repel the Japanese soldiers approaching the front line of the position.
The Japanese were extremely uncomfortable with such tactics. Anjiajun's weapons were far stronger than the Japanese in terms of range, rate of fire, and firepower density. Moreover, the grenades and light and heavy machine guns that the Japanese relied on were almost eliminated by Anjiajun's mortars.
Chasing and fighting, not to mention aiming, even launching has become extremely difficult.
All the firepower that the Japanese relied on to attack was suppressed by the Anjia army. As a result, they had no other choice but to rely on speed. The charge route of several hundred meters, although the Japanese who had undergone strict training continued to carry out various tactical evasions, had no choice but to go forward.
The firepower and shooting accuracy were so great that the Japanese army, divided into six groups of three attacking groups, lost more than 300 people in one breath within a charging distance of two to three hundred meters.
The heavy casualties made Fujiwara Hidezen, who came from Xinzhou Town and personally commanded the front line, very heartbroken. However, this commander with little actual command experience knew very well that the troops could not withdraw now and could only penetrate the Anjia Army's defense line in one breath.
The only way to survive is to successfully join forces with the troops in the south. Otherwise, it will be destroyed sooner or later when the Anjia army completes its deployment.
The battle was extremely fierce. When the Japanese army entered a distance of 200 meters, all the automatic rifles on the Anjiajun position opened fire at once, forming a crossfire from all directions. The Japanese charge formation was immediately contained.
The two sides exchanged shots. Although the enemy's shooting was still accurate, there was basically no chance to fire a second shot. As soon as a enemy finished loading the bullet, several bullets would immediately come after him.
However, since the Second Regiment of the Second Guards Division did not invest all its troops on the front line, within the unit density, the Japs had the absolute upper hand, and the Japanese tactics were not static. Seeing that their side was suffering a loss, Chief of Staff Watanabe added
At Nobu Colonel's suggestion, Fujiwara Hidema immediately ordered all light machine guns to be moved to one side, and other firepower was used to block the front, and then sent heavy troops on both wings to outflank.
This move worked as expected. Since the troops were relatively inferior to their opponents. At the same time, the Anjia Army tried its best to avoid deploying too many troops within the unit density to reduce casualties. The heavy firepower on the north and south wings of the second regiment's front-line position was seriously insufficient.
Even so, the Japanese army failed to get a good deal.
The screaming Japanese soldiers were about to attack the Anjiajun position from the flanks, but what greeted them was an even more violent rain of bullets and grenades everywhere.
The troops deployed by the Anjia Army on the second line also adjusted their strength when the Japanese army moved to the two wings. At the same time, the high-level dual-purpose machine guns deployed on the third and fourth lines adjusted their firing positions in a timely manner, and the firepower density reached a peak in a short period of time.
The Japanese soldiers who fell into a state of madness were thrown to the ground in batches.
After several consecutive rounds of unfavorable attacks, Fujiwara Hidema finally realized that the two wings were not the weakness of the Anjia army's defense line, so he had to concentrate his forces again and launch a strong attack on the front.
The fierce fighting lasted until dawn. The Japanese army launched an attack with all its strength but failed to achieve any results. Instead, the Anjia Army's 2nd Guards Division and 1st Airborne Division at the rear of the battlefield completed the concentration of troops.
Air Force fighter planes also appeared over the battlefield under the rising sun.
After more than ten hours, the two regiments of the Second Guards Division and the five regiments of the First Airborne Division were all in place. The total strength was more than 15,000 people. Although there were no tanks, heavy artillery and other heavy equipment, mortars,
Rocket launchers, recoilless guns, etc. are all available, especially with the support of the air force and army aviation units, which can form a ground defense line for the Japanese army, and the time is ripe for a general attack.
At 8 o'clock in the morning on the 22nd, with the order from Major General Chen Chutian, the Anjia Army's general offensive against the Japanese troops in the direction of Xinzhou in Dan County officially began.
At low altitude, rockets launched by more than 40 armed helicopters landed one after another on the hastily constructed defense line of the Japanese army.
Within a few square kilometers, it was bombarded by three to four hundred rockets in an instant.
In the sky far and near, dive bombers carrying 100kg, 250kg and 500kg bombs rushed down from high altitudes at high speed again and again to carry out key strikes on the exposed firepower points and troop concentration points of the Japanese army.
The ground, which had been burned bare, groaned in pain from the continuous violent explosions. The earth was trembling, rubble, smoke, and fire shot up into the sky, completely covering the originally clear sky.
Just as the deafening explosions stopped, the first wave of Anjia officers and soldiers from the three battalions rushed out of the shelter first. Under the cover of gunpowder smoke, they quickly moved towards the Japanese defense line from the north, middle and south.
"Da da"
The officers and soldiers who rushed forward advanced a distance of about 500 meters, and finally arrived at a distance of more than 300 meters in front of the Japanese position.
At this time, on the front line in charge of the Fourth Battalion of the Third Regiment of the Second Guards Division in the south, the bushes under a hillock just twenty meters away from the second row at the forefront were suddenly lifted from the inside, revealing a
The bunker was piled with sandbags, and dense tongues of fire spewed out from the shooting holes dozens of centimeters wide.
The barrage poured in instantly, knocking down several attacking Anjia officers and soldiers to the ground, and other soldiers quickly fell to the ground.
"Bazooka"
As the platoon leader, Second Lieutenant Duan Zhibo, roared, two rockets exploded on both sides of the firing hole almost simultaneously. The dust and smoke raised by the explosion immediately obscured the sight of the Japanese soldiers in the bunker.
Two flamethrowers assigned to the second row saw the opportunity and crawled forward. They came to the front of the Japanese bunker with great agility. The main shooter raised the flamethrower, aimed at the shooting hole and pulled the trigger. Flames several meters long suddenly shot out.
out.
A shrill scream sounded from the bunker.
The machine gun barrel exposed outside the shooting hole quickly turned red under the high temperature. Before the Japanese soldiers in the bunker could react, the main shooter had already stood up, raised the nozzle, pointed it straight at the shooting hole, and sprayed several numbers behind the bunker.
The flames with a temperature of thousands of degrees instantly burned more than a dozen Japanese soldiers inside to charcoal.
The main shooter turned off the spray gun and waved his hand to the rear to indicate that the threat was over.
At this moment, fierce shooting sound came, and the bodies of the two flamethrowers seemed to be pushed forward by a force. Their heads were covered with blood, and they fell down on the sandbags, sliding softly towards them.
ground.
"boom"
The fuel barrel carried on the deputy shooter's back was hit by a bullet, opening a large hole. After the fuel leaked, it burst into flames due to the high temperature outside, and then exploded violently. The two officers and soldiers were swallowed up by the flames.
Duan Zhibo looked sad. He couldn't bear to turn his head and saw a burst of fire in front of him. His heart moved. He lowered his head almost subconsciously and lay down under the field ridge about one meter high in front of him, amidst the sound of "swish".
Rows of seedlings were beaten until they were broken at the waist, and large pieces fell down.
At the same time, there was a muffled groan and the sound of bullets hitting gunshots from the attacking team.
A scream sounded, and the field ridge was covered with dust. Duan Zhibo hurriedly rolled to one side and rushed out a distance of twenty or thirty meters. Then he used the cover of the field ridge to look forward.
More than 200 meters ahead, the Japanese army built three bunkers with sandbags and logs, relying on a dirt bag more than 20 meters high and 30 to 40 square meters.
The three "pin"-shaped firepower points can provide cover for each other. The dense barrage fired fiercely toward the east, suppressing the Anjia officers and soldiers in front of the position and unable to move in the paddy field.
At this distance, it is difficult to aim with a rocket launcher, and the recoilless rifle does not have much of a sight.
The Japanese army was condescending and put huge pressure on the attacking Anjia army. It was difficult to win without paying a certain amount of casualties by relying solely on infantry.
Duan Zhibo thought for a moment, turned around and said to the correspondent beside him: "Call Lu Hang. The three Japanese fire points in front of our attack line are very threatening. We request fire suppression!"
"yes!"
About five minutes later, three armed helicopters flew over from the north. Under the guidance of the laser illuminator specially used to guide missiles on the ground, the three missiles flew in from the firing holes without much effort, destroying the Japanese bunker.
Destroyed.
As the firepower of the Japanese army across the front was muted, the fourth battalion launched a charge again, and the Japanese defense lines were left behind by Duan Zhibo and his comrades.
An hour and a half later, the Japanese defense line was penetrated by the Anjia Army assault troops. At this time, the loud charge trumpet finally sounded, and the entire front was filled with overwhelming shouts of killing!
At this time, Fujiwara Hidema was almost losing control of the troops. He had to instruct Chief of Staff Colonel Kasanobu Watanabe to organize a counterattack force and drive the An family army out of the defense line.
At this time, the Japanese 169th Division no longer had many reserves available, so Kasanobu Watanabe had to send a brigade of the 15th Infantry Brigade that had just been transferred back from Xinying Town to the front line.
The Anjia officers and soldiers who entered behind the Japanese defense line calmly responded to the challenge, lying down in the hastily constructed simple fortifications, using bullets as dense as a storm to build airtight walls of fire to meet the fierce Japanese counterattack in the direction of Xinzhou.
Thousands of Japanese troops fell on the charging road, while the Japanese soldiers behind continued to attack, completely ignoring their own huge casualties.
However, when the Japanese army, who had luckily crossed the death zone, approached the Anjia Army's temporary position, rows of grenades rained down on them. Amidst the explosions, stumps and broken arms were mixed with scarlet blood, flying all over the sky, stained with blood.
Every corner of the position.
The uniforms and helmets of many Anjia officers and soldiers were covered with sticky minced meat, and the thick, fishy smell in the air was nauseating.
The battle continued for more than an hour, and the Japanese counterattack troops fought to the last soldier.
At this time, the Japanese troops who were divided and surrounded in various parts of the position were unable to organize a counterattack under the pressure of the Anjia officers and soldiers coming from all directions. They cooperated with the action launched by the division headquarters to break through the blockade.
Shrinking, the Japanese army waited in despair for the end to come.
At 1:45 noon, after more than five hours of fierce fighting, the officers and soldiers of the Second Guards Division and the First Airborne Division of the Anjia Army finally compressed the remaining more than 1,000 Japanese troops into a small area of less than one square kilometer.
The Japanese troops in the encirclement knew that they would not be spared, so they hurriedly destroyed the secret codes and documents, and then launched a final desperate counterattack against An's army.
From time to time, small groups of Japanese troops howled and rushed out of the defense line. Each Japanese soldier was strapped with all the explosives they could find, and charged at the Anjia Army's encirclement at an almost crazy speed.
Most of the "meat bombs" of the Japanese army were hit by the dense rain of bullets before they successfully approached. Violent explosions were heard from time to time on the position, and thick black smoke rose.
The few Japanese soldiers who achieved their goal blew themselves up among the ranks of Anjia troops, causing considerable casualties.
At 2:30 in the afternoon, An's army surrounded the Japanese headquarters on the outskirts of Xinzhou City. The division commander Fujiwara Hidema was not interested in fighting and simply chose to surrender.
With Fujiwara Hidema's example, almost all senior officers of the Japanese 169th Division surrendered.
On the one hand, the Anjia army took in the prisoners, and on the other hand, it organized troops to carry out raids and hunted down the Japanese who refused to surrender. It took more than an hour to completely eliminate the Japanese defenders on the front line of Xinzhou.
On the morning of the next day, the Japanese troops in the southern part of Wangwu Town, surrounded by the Anjia Army on both sides, were persuaded by Fujiwara Hidema to personally visit the front line and use loudspeakers to persuade all the Japanese troops who had almost exhausted their ammunition to surrender.
In the early morning of the 24th, Baimajing Town and Paipu Town were recovered one after another, and the war in Dan County came to a successful end.
