Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It was night, and there were more than 200,000 elite Qiao family troops, in addition to the necessary security forces.

    Everybody was drinking and singing, and the carnival didn¡¯t end until late at night.

    ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????:

    He resolutely picked up the steel gun and embarked on the road out of the customs with a backpack on his back.

    On the towering parapet wall of Shanhaiguan, Qiao Anbang, surrounded by a large number of guards, held up his binoculars and looked down at the officers and soldiers of the Qiao family army who were setting off one after another.

    "Brothers, I hope you can all come back alive and see you rich and powerful one day." Even though he knew it was impossible, Qiao Anbang still murmured to himself.

    "Salute to our soldiers!" Qiao Anbang suddenly took the lead and shouted, standing upright and saluting in vain.

    The officers and soldiers of the guard brigade on the wall followed suit one after another, solemnly.

    ??¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    In the Rehe Plain, a long steel dragon composed of hundreds of tanks, armored vehicles, and personnel carriers is galloping towards the Horqin Prairie.

    Wherever the convoy passed, it brought up dust all over the sky. It was so spectacular.

    In an armored command vehicle in the center of the convoy, Zhang Xudong, commander of the independent armored division, was resting with his eyes closed.

    Zhang Yize, currently the deputy commander and chief of staff of the Armored Division, is drawing something on a march map.

    "Xudong, look at it." After a long time, Zhang Yi suddenly pressed his arm against Zhang Xudong and said.

    "What?" Zhang Xudong opened his eyes and asked.

    Zhang Yi pointed at the map and said: "In front of us is Chengde, the capital of Jehol Province. It is said that the Japanese army has abandoned this city, leaving only some puppet troops stationed as cannon fodder. Do you think we want it?"

    "The mission given to us by the commander-in-chief is to cross the Horqin and Hulunbuir prairie and take the back path of the little devils. These small fish and shrimps should not delay our marching speed." Zhang Xudong said without thinking.

    "I said you didn't understand what I meant. In order to build the Jinzhou Defense Line, the Japanese gave up even cities like Chengde without hesitation. So tell me, how many troops can they still have in Shenyang?" Zhang Yiyi pointed out.  Looking at Zhang Xudong said.

    "What do you mean?" Zhang Xudong was shocked.

    "We will take a detour to raid Shenyang. Once Shenyang is attacked, the 200,000 Japanese troops on the Jinzhou front line will be in chaos. By then, our main force will take advantage of the situation and attack fiercely, and we will be able to defeat them in one fell swoop." Zhang Yi said ambitiously.

    Zhang Xudong was startled, then shook his head and said: "No, no, this is too risky, Shenyang is too close to Jinzhou. There is also the South Manchuria Railway line crossing the link. If there is an emergency in Shenyang, the Japanese army can take a train from the Jinzhou defense line in less than half a day  Return reinforcements. By then, not only will it not be able to achieve the effect of a surprise attack, but it will also delay the mission assigned to us by the headquarters, and the gain outweighs the loss."

    "If the Japanese army dares to send troops back to Jinzhou to aid, it will inevitably affect the stability of its Jinzhou defense line, which will be conducive to our main force's attack." Zhang Yidao.

    "Moreover, our army is a mechanized armored force with extremely strong mobile assault capabilities. Even if a surprise attack on Shenyang fails, we can still use our mobility advantage to transfer. There is absolutely no danger."

    "But, in this case, won't we delay the task assigned to us by the chief?" Zhang Xudong said hesitantly.

    "Teacher, when a man is born in this world, he should achieve immortal achievements with a three-foot green peak, so that his life will not be wasted. Have you forgotten that in the battle to defend Nanjing, the commander-in-chief relied on only 6,000 people to attack Liyang and occupy Suzhou?  After three battles and three victories, he finally conquered Songhu and achieved such great military exploits that his name will go down in history from then on.

    Now we have 20,000 elite troops, all mechanized, tanks, artillery, everything. If the raid on Shenyang is successful, then the first victory in the battle out of the customs will be ours. By then, we will be famous all over the world and return in triumph. How can we  Not beautiful?  " Zhang Yi persuaded, striking while the iron is hot.

    "Okay, fuck him, take a gamble!" Zhang Xudong seemed young, and Zhang Yi's words had already aroused his passion.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mbOUT Out, who doesn't want to make achievements, make immortal achievements, and be famous in history?

    Zhang Yi thinks so, and so does Zhang Xudong.

    So these two senior officers of the Qiao Jiajun Young Faction embarked on an adventurous operation.

    ??¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­

    The first battle of Qiao Jiajun's exit from the customs had already begun in Jinchuanbao Wanjia Town when Zhang Xudong and Zhang Yi decided to take the risk.

    This is the forefront of the first line of defense of the Kwantung Army's Jinzhou Line of Defense, because the Pingshen Railway runs through it from north to south.

    Therefore, the geographical location of Wanjia Town is particularly important. The Japanese army built a large number of defensive positions with Wanjia Town and Liuzhou River as the center.

    On the position, there are various light and dark firepower points, reinforced concrete andThe permanent machine gun bunkers are densely covered with stars.

    Various trenches and secret passages crisscrossed the battlefield, and a large number of minefields were deployed in front of the position.

    The first to launch an attack on Wanjia Town was the Qiao Army reorganizing the 13th Regiment of the Fifth Division (formerly the 1st Regiment of the Fifth Division).

    Under the command of regiment commander Tian Jin, the 13th Regiment used artillery and some tanks and combat vehicles as the vanguard, and the infantry subsequently advanced towards the Japanese defense position in Wanjia Town.

    Because the Japanese were well prepared and there were dense minefields in front of the formation, the attack of the 13th Regiment did not go smoothly.

    The battle lasted until three o'clock in the afternoon, but there was still no breakthrough.

    At this time, some bombers of the 1st Air Division, which had just entered Tianjin Airport, were escorted by a group of fighter jets and were ordered to rush to the frontline battlefield.

    Immediately, a barrage of bombings was carried out on the Japanese defense line in Wanjia Town.

    At the same time, General Jiang, commander of the 5th Division, transferred the artillery regiment, self-propelled artillery regiment, and tank armor regiment directly under the division to the front line of Wanjia Town.

    ?Cooperating with the Air Force to carry out covering and repeated fire strikes on Japanese positions.

    The artillery units directly under Tian Jin's command were not idle either and fired one after another.

    For a time, hundreds of artillery pieces on the front line of Wanjia Town opened fire, and air fighters continued to circle and bomb, dive and strafe.

    The Japanese position quickly turned into a sea of ??fire. After the air force returned and our own artillery fire began to extend.

    Tian Jin, commander of the 13th Regiment, immediately ordered the troops to charge.

    "Charge! Kill!" Hundreds of Qiao family officers and soldiers armed with MP44 assault rifles and under the cover of machine guns launched a tide-like charge towards the Japanese positions.

    However, when they were halfway through the charge, the Japanese army position, which was almost in ruins, suddenly burst out with gunfire, and dense bullets roared towards them like a rainstorm.

    Some of the soldiers who rushed to the front were shot and fell to the ground.

    It turns out that most of the Japanese defense fortifications were made of reinforced concrete and were extremely strong. The bombardment by our own air force and artillery units seemed fierce, but in fact they did not cause much damage to the Japanese army.

    This is also the cunning and shrewdness of Yoshio Shinozuka. He knows that the Qiao Army now has an absolute advantage in ground artillery and air firepower.

    Therefore, when building the Jinzhou defense line, he did not hesitate to spend countless manpower and material resources to reinforce all bunker fortifications with reinforced concrete iron plates.
