"Kill GagaLong live the Empire of JapanLong live His Majesty the Emperor" As the regiment put in all their troops, the Japanese army also frantically increased its troops.
More and more Japs shouted their slogans and rushed forward.
¡°Pap-pap-pap-tat-tat-tat-tat¡¡± Countless rifle bullets flew back and forth like shooting stars.
People on both sides were shot and fell from time to time.
As the distance approached, most of the rocket soldiers of the 5th Division began to show off their power.
A bazooka rocket launcher spit out balls of fire one after another, and the rockets penetrated into the Japanese army's position, immediately setting off violent explosions one after another.
The Japanese around the explosion point screamed and were blown away, their flesh and blood mangled.
The fire-breathing soldiers are even more ferocious. The blazing flames that are more than ten meters long spurt out like fire snakes. If the Japanese soldiers get a little spark, they will be quickly devoured by the fire.
The whole person turned into a burning man, letting out miserable howls of pain until he was burned alive.
"Brothers, the master has personally come to the front line to supervise the battle. We must capture Wanjia Town before dark. Charge!" Tian Jin, wearing a helmet and holding a P44 assault rifle, raised his arms and shouted.
When the officers and soldiers of the 13th Regiment heard this, their morale immediately increased. The assault rifles and machine guns in their hands were powerful enough to greet the Japanese positions.
At the same time, the grenadiers who charged with the troops also fired grenades at the Japanese positions.
It caused even more heavy losses to the already heavy casualties of the Japanese army. Almost every Japanese soldier was blown away by every grenade explosion.
Since most of the Japanese troops were engaged in the battle for the Tiger tanks, their surviving bunkers and firepower points were all fired at to suppress them, but they were unable to block the Qiao Army's attack across the board.
After all, some of their firepower points have been destroyed by bombing and shelling.
And as the distance approached, the bazooka rocket launchers of the Fifth Division caused huge damage to the Japanese army.
Even the Japanese hiding in machine gun bunkers and light and dark firepower bunkers will suffer heavy casualties once they are accurately fired by bazooka rocket launchers.
What¡¯s more, some experienced rocket soldiers fired rocket launchers directly into the bunker along the Japanese shooting holes.
In the narrow space, the intense scorching heat and raging air shrapnel caused unimaginable devastating blows to the Japanese in the bunker.
With the main force attacking across the board. The progress of the engineering troops also began to become rapid.
Soon, two Tigers successfully fell out of the anti-tank ditch and quickly retreated towards their own position under the cover of infantry.
Immediately afterwards, the other two Tiger tanks also escaped one after another, and the engineers began to shovel soil and fill the hole.
They want to pave the way forward for their own tank and armored forces, assault tanks one by one to the Japanese positions, directly block the Japanese machine gun bunkers with tanks, and then annihilate them.
The fierce battle lasted from three o'clock in the afternoon to the evening, and the 13th Regiment of more than 3,000 people suffered almost half casualties.
Of course, the Japanese suffered more casualties, and at least two regiments were disabled.
After paying huge casualties, the engineering troops finally filled in several sections of anti-tank trenches.
The main force of the tank regiment, which has been waiting for a long time, is dozens of Tiger tanks and Panzer IV tanks. One after another rumbled forward, the tank guns fired at the Japanese firepower points that were still firing tenaciously.
While roaring through the anti-tank ditch, they rushed to the Japanese position. Each tank drove directly towards the Japanese machine gun bunker that kept spitting out tongues of fire.
Without the wide and deep anti-tank trenches, there was nothing on the Japanese position that could stop the assault of the tank armored group.
Under the cover of the infantry, the tank group advanced rapidly and quickly broke into the Japanese position. With the tanks charging forward, the bullets poured out from the Japanese firepower. All the clangs hit the heavy armored vehicles, and the casualty rate of the infantrymen behind them was extremely reduced.
When the tanks almost blocked the firing holes of the Japanese bunkers, the accompanying assault infantrymen suddenly sprayed flames violently at the Japanese bunkers with flamethrowers on their backs.
The scorching high temperature quickly burned all the oxygen in the bunker, and all the Japanese inside were burned into charred corpses without exception.
In this way, the 13th Regiment of the 5th Reorganized Division and the Tank Regiment finally annihilated the Japanese troops in Wanjia Town after suffering heavy casualties. At about seven o'clock in the evening, Wanjia Town was captured.
The Japanese army refused to retreat, which was one of the reasons why the 13th Regiment suffered heavy casualties.
In the headquarters of the 13th Regiment, Tian Jin, who had an injured arm, saluted Jiang Jun with a bandage on his face and a guilty look on his face: "Master, after a bloody battle, my brothers in the 13th Regiment finally annihilated the Japanese invaders in Wanjia Town. But it was two hours later than the limited time."Master, please punish me!" "
Jiang Jun looked at the injured Tian Jin, patted him on the shoulder with a heavy tone and said: "I know you tried your best, and I also know that the 13th Regiment paid a heavy price in casualties. Wasn't it just two hours late? Sit there and I'll carry it, you can take good care of yourself."
"But" Tian Jin looked up.
"There's nothing to be ashamed of. My subordinates are by no means cowards who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and are afraid of fighting. If anything happens, I'll be responsible for it!" Jiang Jun said.
"Commander Tian, ??that's enough, you go down and recuperate." Chief of Staff Liang Haoyao also took the opportunity to wave his hand.
"Yes!" Tian Jin didn't say anything more. After saluting, he turned and left.
??¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Shanhaiguan.
"General, the 5th Division has just taken Wanjia Town." Guard Brigade Commander Wang Gensheng reported to Qiao Anbanghui who was having dinner.
"Oh, how about the casualties?" Qiao Anbang asked without raising his head.
"The casualties were huge. The Japanese army refused to retreat. The 13th Regiment, which was responsible for the main attack, suffered almost two-thirds of the casualties. The regiment leader Tian Jin was also injured." Wang Gensheng said.
"They seem to be later than the time limit I gave them, right?" Qiao Anbang said.
"Yes." Wang Gensheng said: "But, Commander-in-Chief, after all, they paid a huge price in casualties. Even the regiment commander Tian Jin was defeated. It's not that they didn't try their best, but that the Japanese army was too tenacious."
"This is not an excuse. I'm asking you how late they are?" Qiao Anbang asked coldly.
"More than two hours." Wang Gensheng replied.
"Two hours? It's enough to decide the outcome of a battle and the life and death of hundreds of thousands of soldiers." Qiao Anbang frowned and said in a cold tone: "Pass my order. The commander of the 5th Division failed to complete his military orders on time. As the commander of the 5th Division, his military rank has also been reduced to major. In view of the current war, let him temporarily act as the commander of the 5th Division. He will be punished for his meritorious service. If he does it again, he will be punished for both crimes."
"Chief Commander." Wang Gensheng felt that Qiao Anbang's punishment was indeed a bit harsh. "Anyway, the Fifth Division has completed its mission, and Commander Jiang is also the deputy commander of the predecessor of our security brigade. He is considered to be your confidant, Commander. You see Yes or no¡¡"
Unexpectedly, before Wang Gensheng finished speaking, Qiao Anbang slammed the table, startling him, and shouted: "Failure to complete the task on time is a failure. If our army does not have the absolute initiative and advantage in today's battle, If the fifth division is tasked with reinforcements and arrives two units late, it will lead to the failure of the entire campaign, and the consequences will be unimaginable and catastrophic, do you understand?"
After yelling, Qiao Anbang paused and said: "Pass this news to all divisions. If something like this happens again, you will be severely punished!"
"Yes!" Wang Gensheng didn't say much and agreed.
The news that Jiang Jun, commander of the Fifth Division, failed to complete the mission on time quickly spread throughout the Qiao Army's divisions and regiments, and everyone in the army was shocked.
As we all know, Jiang Jun was originally the deputy commander of Qiao Anbang's guard regiment, and he was a close relative of Qiao Anbang. He was just two hours late, and he finally completed the task. He was promoted to the rank of lieutenant general, division commander, and army major general, almost to the rank of major. Being jerked off to the end.
As Qiao Anbang¡¯s absolute confidant, the commander of the fifth division of the main force was punished so severely even two hours later. The military chiefs of other divisions were all shocked. Who dared to be even the slightest bit sloppy and indifferent?
Wanjia Town, Fifth Division Headquarters.
The entire division headquarters fell into deathly silence at this moment. Division Commander Jiang Jun and Chief of Staff Liang Haoyao both had serious expressions on their faces.
Several other combat communications staff members were even more silent, staying aside and busying around the map for fear of getting angry.
Jiang Jun smoked a cigarette, frowning and remaining silent. After a long time, Liang Haoyao stepped forward to persuade him: "Master, don't take it too seriously. The chief executive must have had other deep intentions for doing this, and didn't he let you temporarily?" Is it the authority of a teacher?"
Jiang Jun smiled to himself: "Chief of Staff, you are worrying too much. Not to mention that we are indeed two hours late. Even if the commander-in-chief kills me now, I will have no complaints. Moreover, the commander-in-chief just wants to pass this." This incident serves as a warning to all soldiers in the army that they need to fight hard to kill the enemy and serve the country. I can still understand this."
"Well, since Master understands, then I'm too worried." Liang Haoyao nodded, and he admired Qiao Anbang's ability to use people even more.
?¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
Jinzhou Japanese Army Headquarters.
A Japanese staff officer ran into the headquarters in a panic and said without even saluting: "Your Excellency, Commander, Wanjia Town was captured by the Chinese, and we lost two garrison regiments."
"BeingOccupied? "Yoshio Shinozuka's face changed slightly, and then he said thoughtfully: "It seems that the Chinese people are very anxious. How are their casualties? "
"It shouldn't be small. The Imperial Army's garrison refused to retreat, causing them heavy casualties." The Japanese staff officer replied.
"Qiao Anbang stormed the imperial army's defense line at all costs, which is really intriguing. But we are not in a hurry. Even if it becomes such a war of attrition, we are not in a hurry. In two months at most, our reinforcements will continue to come, and pass on the order. , all troops should display the spirit of a fight to the death, swear to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor to the death, and never be allowed to retreat without orders, and vow to fight the Chinese to the end," said Yoshio Shinozuka.
