Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated Chapter 238

Chapter 238 Everyone attacks, Republic of China version

While the frontal battlefield was in full swing, a fully equipped tank squadron and infantry brigade broke through the 129th Division's defense line.

  To be precise, these devils did not penetrate the defense line with strength, but simply moved quickly.

Okamura Neiji's task for the 41st Division was to go south to Shaoyuan, and after rest and recuperation, directly occupy all the ferries on the north bank of the Yellow River, completely cutting off the connection between the defenders on both sides of the river.

 This tank squadron and infantry group are the vanguard units in this attack, responsible for opening the way for the entire division.

 After the battle started, the fierce battle formation created by countless artillery shells, planes and the loud charge directly frightened the two Japanese lieutenants.

Facing the surging sea of ​​fighting people, even with their small number of troops, they would not be able to make a splash even if they were thrown into the battlefield. Rather than die in vain, it is better to attack in reverse to save yourself and find another way out.

As soon as this point of view came out, the two people who had similar odors hit it off immediately, rubbed oil on their soles and ran away immediately.

 If the superiors take the lead in running away, how can the subordinates resist? The Japanese infantrymen got on the truck if they could. If there was no room in the truck, they squeezed onto the tank, trying to keep up with the large army on the way to escape.

 Thanks to the fact that the average height of the soldiers is 1.5 meters, otherwise they really wouldn't be able to perform operations at the level of Ah San.

Stimulated by everyone's strong desire for survival, the two troops merged into one and became a motorized force.

"Zhonglijun, where should we go? Judging from the current situation, the entire Central Plains battle will definitely end in failure. At this stage, we can only protect ourselves."

“How about we head towards the western front, see if we can break through the eastern front and join up with the 21st Division and the 35th Division.”

 Masho Nakazato's suggestion seems good, but it has a fatal flaw.

At present, the entire army is short of supplies. If they do not arrive at their destination along the road as quickly as possible, the problem of food and fuel alone will cause them to lose their combat effectiveness.

What's more, there is still an empty division in the sky. Once exposed to the enemy's sight, the entire tank squadron will become Fang Ziyi's record.

 After thinking for a moment, Yuki Kensuke shook his head. With his strategic level, he couldn't think of any better solution for a while.

“No matter what, stay away from the battlefield first.”

“The two lieutenant generals are using their lives to buy us time. You and I cannot live up to their good intentions.”

“But we were really lucky. We didn't encounter any enemies along the way. Even those **** air forces didn't appear in groups.”

It can only be said that these little devils are really too naive. Their escape was not due to luck or the negligence of our army. The current opening was specially reserved for the enemy's small mobile force.

There are three gaps around, classics will never go out of style. What's more, the front is the position responsible for the 386th Brigade. The defenders there are three basic regiments headed by Kong Jie.

 If a tank squadron and an infantry group dare to break through, the defense master will teach them how to behave.

Switch the perspective and come to the position of the 386th Brigade Independent Regiment.

“Commander, why can't our regiment attack together with the brigade headquarters?”

“That is a big scene with tens of thousands of people, and we may not be able to do it many times in our lifetime as soldiers. If we miss this battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, we don't know if we will survive until next time.”

Hearing the complaints from one of his battalion commanders, Kong Jie put down the engineering shovel in his hand and pretended to hit someone.

 Who wouldn't want to join in the fun of a big scene? However, all his abilities and traits are used for defense, and his role in the frontal battlefield is limited.

What's more, the entire division dispatched eight brigades, and the battlefield width was simply not enough.

If things continue like this, if he fails to understand that the strongest defense is offense, sooner or later he will become the Republic of China version of All-Out Attack Model. Perhaps going to the Northeast to guard the border will be his final destination.

After sighing silently in his heart, Kong Jie picked up the tools on the ground and comforted a battalion commander while building a position:

　　"Okay, stop complaining. Dig more shovels when you have time. The enemy will attack soon and it will save your life."

"This is the only way to Shaoyuan. There is a high probability that you can crouch down the enemy's armored troops. Killing a few more tanks would be more enjoyable than fighting infantry."

“I've moved the secret weapon out of the warehouse! Work harder! It's almost done!”

Although the independent regiment also changed its weaponry, it lacked the final heavy weapon.

 In order to successfully complete the blocking mission, Kongjie specially brought out an SA34 anti-tank gun. Coupled with 40 guns, a tank squadron can't even think of taking any advantage against them.

Considering the problem of casualties, he specially asked the soldiers to build a very conspicuous fake fortification on the position to attract firepower.

Lao Kong even personally instructed the engineers in the regiment to build tentacle fortifications, just to discover the enemy's movements in advance.

Just in case, he also hid a company of soldiers in the dense forest behind the mountain as a mobile force and reserve team, which almost fully demonstrated the skills of a defender.

Once there is a firefight with the enemy, the independent regiment cooperates with the basic regiments on both sides to attack the enemy from three directions at the same time.

 Five minutes later, the Japs, led by seventeen Type 95 light tanks, discovered the Eighth Route Army position on the top of the hill.

This move is a conspiracy. If you don't take the initiative to attack, you will be defeated by the high one. Even if you rely on the mobility of the motorized troops to break out of the encirclement under a hail of bullets, you still have to shed a layer of skin first.

If you take the initiative to attack by attacking low and high, the best outcome is that both sides will suffer losses.

 After a short discussion, Yuuki Kensuke and Nakazato Masaho had no choice but to bite the bullet and start the fight. The seventeen Type 95 light tanks immediately split up and the infantry quickly dismounted, followed closely by the infantry-tank coordination.

Seven of them were used by Yuki Kensuke to attack the independent regiment's position, while the remaining crews attacked the other two key regiments respectively.

 Because the fake forts on the position were too conspicuous, it became the target of the enemy's attack. The 37mm tank guns of the seven Type 95 light tanks fired grenades one after another, blasting the independent regiment's position into dust and gravel. The silky attack suddenly boosted the morale of the Japanese infantry.

 “Captain, you are so awesome.”

“With just a few hundred broken stones, we can trick the Japanese into so many shells. We'll see after a while! Our battalion can definitely give the enemy a head-on blow!”

When the Type 95 light tanks turned their turrets, Kong Jie led the soldiers to disperse and hide, leaving only a few soldiers on the position to monitor the enemy's situation.

 “Stop talking nonsense and get ready for battle. As soon as the artillery stops, the enemy will come up.”

 After thinking that they had suppressed the Eighth Route Army on the hilltop, the Japanese infantry began to press forward. They began to attack under the cover of tanks and walked step by step towards the position of the independent regiment.

 What awaits the enemy is a minefield.

The position chosen by Kong Jie is surrounded by dense forest on the left and more open on the right. Nakazato Masajo suddenly had an idea and decided to sneak around and make a surprise attack, so he sent dozens of infantrymen to sneak up.

 As a defense master, it is naturally impossible to make stupid mistakes. Of course there are traps there, and as long as the enemy dares to come, they will basically die. Looking at the Japanese approaching step by step, the soldiers all showed excited expressions.

 When the distance reached 70 meters, the sound of Hotchkiss heavy machine gun resounded over the battlefield.

 Coupled with defensive grenades and 50 guns, dozens of Japanese soldiers fell on the charging road without even letting go.

It is a pity that due to the limitation of carrying capacity, the independent regiment did not carry enough mines in this battle, otherwise it would not even be able to use a few bullets for the heavy machine gun.

 The little plan was used to directly defeat the enemy's offensive intentions.

The Japanese on the front were not happy either. They did not expect that there were landmines buried in the mountain.

 The moment the first infantryman stepped on a mine, Nakazato felt that something was wrong. But at this time, the position of the troops was neither up nor down, and whether it was retreating or charging, it was almost a dead end.

　　Withdrawing, exposing the back, the death is unclear. Rushing, stepping on landmines and facing bullets is meaningless.

Soon, the grassroots officers made the choice for him very considerately.

 “What a black card! Onboard!”

 Hearing the familiar slogan, the Japanese infantry were like speed dogs in the interstellar, "heroically" rushing into the Baneling Swarm. Accompanied by the explosion of landmines and the cries of soldiers, they finally passed through the minefield.

 But at this moment, two Hotchkiss stretched out from the tentacles behind them.

 When a heavy machine gun hits infantry, they are still defenseless. The one who can survive is definitely Showa Superman. Combined with the firepower from the frontal position, more than half of the Japanese were killed or wounded before even firing.

 Seeing that the situation was improving, the mobile troops also launched an assault.

 After a series of strategies, hundreds of enemies were beaten back steadily, and it was only a matter of time before they were completely annihilated.

 In order to cover the infantry, Yuki Kensuke could only order seven Type 95 light tanks to open fire again. The power of the tank guns temporarily suppressed the independent regiment's firepower, and the surviving Japanese began to retreat in an orderly manner.

 However, Kong Jie showed his fangs again.

While all the enemy's attention is on the frontal position, the concealed tank fighting team appears in advance.

 The first thing to attack was the SA34 anti-tank gun. This thing has pneumatic tires, and a gun crew can drag the gun across a short distance.

 Because the enemy tanks faced high ground, their relatively weakly armored flanks were clearly exposed, and the soldiers were less than 700 meters away from those tanks.

 “Bang!”

  The first 25×109mm artillery shell flew out from the inconspicuous grass somewhere.

 After nearly half a year of training, the proficiency of the gunners has already changed beyond what it used to be.

This long-planned armor-piercing projectile hit the ammunition rack without hesitation, and the Type 95 light tank directly exploded into a no-man's land among the infantry group.

It was obvious that everyone had learned from the chief artilleryman of the brigade. After the hit, everyone shouted in a low voice: "Yeah! Hair loss!"

The SA34's low profile, combined with the unique muzzle flash suppressor, makes the gun crew highly concealable. The soldiers fired five rounds of artillery shells before the Japanese discovered the location of the position.

 Unfortunately, it was too late. Without the artillery suppression of the tanks, the defenders of the independent regiment began to shoot for cover.

Not only did the anti-tank gun crew push the SA34 away from the battlefield unharmed, but even the soldiers carrying 40mm fire entered the effective range.

Using the wreckage of the Japanese tank, armor-piercing shells hit the remaining Type 95 light tanks one after another. The situation on the battlefield is extremely clear, and victory is about to belong to the independent regiment.

 Looking at the Eighth Route Army that took the initiative to leave its position and seemed to be encircling them. The eyes of Yuuki Kensuke and Nakazato Masabachi were full of fear, and they knew that their death was coming.

 “What a bitter defeat, Nakazato-kun.”

“Our mission failed and the tank was destroyed, but we cannot evacuate all of them.”

 As soon as he finished speaking, the remaining enemy launched a pig-like attack under the leadership of two lieutenants.

Although they were determined to die, the two still chose the most reasonable way of playing. The infantry changed their central breakthrough to a two-wing attack, trying to distract the Eighth Route Army's firepower and create opportunities for escape.

It is a pity that the friendly forces on both sides of the independent regiment have ended the battle first, and with the tacit reinforcements, all the Japanese were successfully trapped and killed.

  Wake up and change again, good night
