Facing the turbulent river, Tanabe Moritake had to stop the troops first, and began to let the engineers build the bridge, just to take this opportunity to take a good rest. As a result, when the pontoon bridge was about to be repaired, a group of gunboats suddenly appeared from the lower reaches of the river. After rushing over, Shengsheng blew up the pontoon bridge again, and continued shelling the resting Japanese army. By the time the Japanese army was ready for the artillery position, the damned enemy had already fled.
Moritake Tanabe was very angry. The enemy was very cunning, and they were always moving at the edge of the artillery range, and they would go away as soon as they touched it. Although it would not cause much damage to their troops, it did a blow to the morale of the troops. Seeing that the newly built Nice pontoon,. Being bombed again, the exhausted and half-dead engineer stared at the river in a daze.
"Take a break and continue building the pontoon bridge." No matter how angry Mori Takeshi Tanabe is, he will not fail to take care of his soldiers, otherwise it will make the soldiers frustrated and affect their combat effectiveness. Only by taking good care of them can the soldiers fully explode into combat effectiveness .
As a last resort, the Japanese army stopped here completely, and took a rest for two hours until they were full, and then rested for a while, and the Japanese engineers got up to build the pontoon bridge under the urging of Tanabe Moritake. This time, Moritake Tanabe arranged for two brigades to block the upstream and downstream of the pontoon bridge to prevent the enemy from destroying it, which allowed the pontoon bridge to proceed smoothly.
The Japanese army began to cross the bridge. In order to ensure safety, guard posts and firepower points were established within a few hundred meters on the opposite bank. Takeshi Tanabe ordered a large force to cross the river, and the mighty Japanese army began to cross the river.
At this moment, Liu Yang looked at the Japanese army crossing the river from afar, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, he let out a long breath, and looked back at Datou Nie: "Datou, ask if Yang Zhanshan is ready?"
In response, Nie Datou greeted the operator and immediately sent a report to Yang Zhanshan, and then he received Yang Zhanshan's reply, which made Nie Datou heave a sigh of relief, rushed to Liu Yang's side, and nodded vigorously: "Battle, Commander Yang has already Ready."
Liu Yang nodded, and looked back at the Japanese army crossing the river silently with his binoculars, but he was calculating in his heart. Nearly one-fifth of the Japanese army had already crossed the river, that is, about 3,000 people, but all the heavy firepower was still there. On the other side of the river, as long as the floating bridge is broken, you can buy yourself a little time.
The cannons of the Japanese army had already been towed by cars because they were preparing to cross the river. It was impossible to adjust the range in a short time, at least within 20 minutes, which meant that I had 20 minutes to half an hour.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Yang gritted his teeth and waved his hand at Nie Datou: "Notify Yang Zhanshan to launch."
Nie Datou didn't dare to hesitate, and immediately called Yang Zhanshan. After receiving the news, Yang Zhanshan immediately launched the warship and pushed a few floating fields down the river.
Liu Yang didn¡¯t move, just kept watching, and finally saw the floating field downstream from a distance. At this time, the Japanese troops upstream also spotted it, but they didn¡¯t fire. There was nothing on the floating field. Where did the artillery fire?
This thing is a waste of shells, but the Japanese army immediately realized that once these floating fields rushed down, due to the water flow, this thing could completely destroy the pontoon bridge, so after a little hesitation, they immediately turned the muzzle and fired at the floating fields. gun.
The rumbling sound of the cannon alarmed Shengwu Tanabe, and he quickly raised his binoculars to look over it, but he couldn't help being stunned for a moment. He estimated that there was no less than two or three hundred acres of floating fields. Things will not sink, even if they are broken up, they will also flow down the river.
"Baga¡ª¡ª" Shengwu Tanabe's face changed, and he had already made a decision in his heart: "Immediately order to stop crossing the river, and let the troops who have already crossed the river step up their precautions, the enemy may sneak attack."
Unexpectedly, the voice just fell, but Liu Yang in the distance had already waved his hand violently: "Kill¡ª¡ª"
Following Liu Yang's order, the roar of rumbling tanks and armored vehicles resounded through a forest in the distance. Those trees that had been brought down a long time ago fell to the ground as soon as the tanks touched them. All the tanks and Armored vehicles swarmed towards the Japanese army, followed by the elite of the secret service battalion.
The Japanese army was alarmed. Facing the tanks and armored vehicles, the Japanese army who had already crossed the river began to establish positions. After a while, the machine guns rang out first, and at the same time, mortars and grenade launchers also began to quickly adjust their positions.
It's just that the Japanese army didn't expect that the brothers of the third company were behind the tank. The third company was proficient in shoulder-mounted shelling, which was a unique skill that the Japanese army could not match.
Forty tanks, sixteen armored vehicles, and fifty-six machine guns interweaved into a firepower net, covering the Japanese army's position, with different distances and distances, and immediately suppressed the Japanese army's firepower by a lot.
The tank charged fast, and the three companies ran and fought at the same time.There was no pause, and the troops in front of the Japanese army were beaten up immediately.
This is not to blame the Japanese army for dealing with it wrongly, nor is it that the Japanese army is not elite enough, but the artillery fire of the secret service battalion is too dense. One hundred and two Shimen mortars, and more than one hundred grenadiers, covered hundreds of meters of land in a fan shape. Even the most elite divisions of the Japanese army do not have such firepower.
Realizing that the enemy's firepower was too strong, and without fortifications, such a field battle was simply death. After a short period of confusion, the Japanese army immediately launched a desperate charge, preparing to enter the enemy's camp, and then started hand-to-hand combat. Elites can always gain an advantage in hand-to-hand combat, after all, the Japanese army has more troops.
However, the Japanese army miscalculated again. Seeing that the two sides were about to contact, the tanks and armored vehicles in front suddenly stopped, just outside the Japanese artillery fire on the opposite bank, and quickly formed a steel defense line.
Immediately afterwards, the soldiers of the secret service battalion, who had been prepared for a long time, quickly filled the gap with sandbags, established a temporary position, and then set up a bunch of machine guns, probably not as many as forty or fifty. The artillery fire of the secret service battalion never stopped.
The shattered floating field finally rushed down and slammed into the floating field. The huge inertia broke the floating bridge in half, and then shattered into pieces.
When the pontoon bridge was broken, the Japanese army lost the possibility of reinforcements, but the secret service battalion was shrewd and did not rush into the range at all, leaving the Japanese army on the other side with no choice but to watch helplessly.
At this time, the Japanese troops crossing the river had reached one-third, but because there was no heavy firepower and no fortifications for cover, they were completely exposed to the bullets of the spy battalion. Falling down, the bullet is like a sickle for reaping wheat.
In just a short while, the Japanese army had lost six or seven hundred people before, so that the corpses of the Japanese army in front of the position had been piled up high, allowing the Japanese army to use the corpses as a cover to temporarily avoid the powerful firepower of the spy battalion.
Once the tanks stopped, they also started to fire. Cooperating with the artillery of the third company, the Japanese army couldn't organize an effective counterattack when they saw that Junde's firepower points and artillery positions were blown up one by one.
Behind the secret service battalion, dozens of trucks kept bringing grenades and artillery shells over, and there was no reduction at all. If this continues, the Japanese army on the shore will probably be wiped out sooner or later.
Accompanied by powerful firepower, the charging Japanese army basically relied on making up for it, and people kept falling down, which completely shattered the confidence of the Japanese army.
This is an unfair battle. On the one hand, the special service battalion has powerful firepower and unparalleled artillery fire, and tanks and armored vehicles form a defensive line, blocking most of the bullets outside and providing protection for the brothers in the rear. On the one hand, in contrast, the Japanese army could only fight back with rifles on the flat beach, and could not penetrate the enemy's armor at all.
"Push the cannon up for me¡ª" Shengwu Tanabe felt as if there was a burst of anger in his chest and abdomen, and he wished to kill and fight with the secret service battalion. so miserable.
But if there is no if, when the Japanese army hastily adjusted the cannon, the nearly 5,000 Japanese troops who crossed the river on the other side have lost more than 3,000, more than 2,000 people have broken jade, and there are more than 1,000 wounded soldiers.
Seeing that the Japanese cannons began to adjust their firing range, following Liu Yang's order, the spy battalion suddenly retreated.
Yes, they retreated. The range of the 900-meter cannon had already threatened the secret service battalion, so Liu Yang retreated without hesitation, and soon retreated out of the range of the cannon. This distance, whether it is a tank or Mortars are out of range.
The sound of gunfire finally stopped, and the remaining Japanese soldiers were grateful for a while, but they started to rescue the injured soldiers again.
But the secret service battalion stopped again a thousand meters away, and then the tanks, armored vehicles, and trucks transporting ammunition slowly dispersed, revealing more than 60 cannons of various calibers.
These cannons were brought over by the Navy from Changxing, Yixing and other places, including the cannons from Xishan Island, and even the cannons from Wuxi. , looking quite spectacular from afar.
At this moment, Tanabe Shengwu's face changed completely. His 41st Division had more than 60 artillery pieces of various calibers. The firepower is too strong.
After sighing, he began to worry about the arrival of the Japanese army on the other side. Moritake Tanabe could not reach the secret service battalion, but the artillery fire from the secret service battalion happened to cover the imperial soldiers on the shore.
Liu Yang has already made clear the means, which is to use cannons to wipe out the remaining 1,400 to 500 Japanese troops. At such a distance, the Japanese army has no ability to fight back. The only way is to run away except to watch helplessly. Moritake Tanabe knew that waiting any longer would lead to death, so he gritted his teeth and finally gave the order: "Immediately break out to both sides¡ª" (Remember the website website: www.hlnovel.com)?Without the ability to fight back, the only way is to run away except to watch helplessly being beaten.
