- Chapter 366 Chinese Expeditionary Force Laos Campaign (5)
The infantrymen riding on the tank used their submachine guns to shoot all the Japanese soldiers who tried to get close to the tank into gourds of blood. The tank machine gun roared "chuchuchuchu", and the dense bullets were like a barrage. The Japanese soldiers would die if they got caught.
The Japanese infantry on the position finally couldn't hold on any longer and abandoned their positions one after another and retreated. The tank crews opened the accelerator and drove the tanks quickly towards the third line of defense.
The sun left its last ray of light on the horizon, and the Chinese Expeditionary Force successfully occupied the second line of defense. The tank soldiers rolled the slower Japanese soldiers into the tracks and chased the Japanese soldiers until they reached the third line of defense before taking back their positions.
Tanks form a steel line of defense outside the third line of defense, and infantry relies on tanks to build camps and strengthen vigilance. That night, Lieutenant General Matsuyama gave up the night attack, despite his men's insistence on raiding the Japanese camp.
The destruction of the only special operations force forced Lieutenant General Matsuyama to economize on soldiers who were not well-off. Commander Songshan ordered the Japanese troops on the front line to reinforce the fortifications. That night, the Japanese troops on the third line of defense drove a large number of Laotian people to repair the bombed fortifications. After a night of hard work, when the sky showed a little light, the fortifications of the third line of defense were reinforced and renovated. The newly renovated fortifications gave the Japanese army a little more confidence in resisting.
Outside the third line of defense, more than 200,000 troops of the Chinese Expeditionary Force launched attacks along the entire front. Nearly a thousand Chinese artillery pieces aimed at the Japanese fortifications in Vientiane at the same time and fired fiercely. The whistling shells dragged white smoke, and their sharp whistles pierced the sky, leaving beautiful arcs in the sky.
At noon, U.S. military fighter planes roared over the city and dropped bombs one after another. The Japanese army no longer has a single fighter plane that can take off for combat in Laos and Vietnam, and lacks anti-aircraft artillery and anti-aircraft machine guns on the ground, so they can only allow US military aircraft to shuttle and bomb.
After an hour of intensive bombing, the edge of Vientiane city was filled with flames and smoke. Many Japanese soldiers had to temporarily become firefighters, carrying basins and buckets to put out fires.
After lunch, Chinese tanks roared and slowly approached the Japanese position. In the battle on the periphery of the city, the tank served as a close-range shooting fort, firing 150 meters away from the Japanese position. The tank gun fired almost directly against the Japanese fortifications. As soon as the gun went down, a firepower point was blown up. One armor-piercing explosive bomb can make a bunker fly into the air.
What scares the Japanese army the most is the "unscrupulous cannon" with a large number of weapons and equipment. This kind of giant cannon converted from gasoline barrels can hold 5 kilograms of explosives in one bag. At the front of the Japanese attack tunnel, rows of huge "gun muzzles" were aimed at the Japanese positions. This kind of super cannon with a range of only about 100 meters was fired during the interval between the artillery groups.
Hundreds of "flying thunder cannons" fired at the same time, and the loud noise was deafening. A "cannonball" hit the ground and immediately exploded a large crater. The huge shock wave of the explosion invisiblely shattered the Japanese's internal organs and collapsed the fortifications.
The terrifying "gunfire" became a nightmare for Japanese soldiers, and the fierce "artillery fire" was the end of the Japanese army. Amidst the continuous explosions of bomb packages, the frontier Japanese positions were shattered, the fortifications were blown like cracked turtle shells, and the positions were covered with craters.
The telephone lines at the front line of the Japanese army were cut off by fierce artillery fire, and Lieutenant General Matsuyama had no way of knowing what was going on ahead. But from the thunderous sound of artillery, Lieutenant General Songshan suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart. It was a fear he had never experienced before. The flesh and blood body seems so insignificant under the power of steel and tnt**. Under the fierce artillery fire, the fighting will of Japanese soldiers and even the fighting will of officers was disappearing bit by bit.
At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the frontline units of the Chinese Expeditionary Force began a general offensive. The tall buildings on the outskirts of the city turned into low buildings, and the houses turned into ruins. On the ruins, Japanese soldiers dragged out their rifles, machine guns, and remaining flat-fire cannons.
The ground was shaking, and the roar of tank engines shook the hearts of the Japanese soldiers. The Chinese soldiers shouted and charged forward with the tanks. Almost instantly, all kinds of guns opened fire on the remaining Japanese positions.
It¡¯s just that the sound of those gunshots seemed so lonely in the noisy battlefield. The on-board machine guns of Chinese tanks sprayed bullets like raindrops, and the barrage enveloped the Japanese on the position. The submachine guns in the hands of the infantrymen were constantly spitting out tongues of fire, and their steps forward were so calm and firm.
The remaining Japanese flat-fire cannons sounded, and the sound was so weak. The Chinese tank soldier adjusted the muzzle of the gun, aimed at the position where the flat-fire cannon was fired, and fired a shell. The cannon fire ceased, but the smoke continued to rise.
When the tracks of the tanks rolled over the dilapidated Japanese positions, the huge figures filled the eyes of the Japanese soldiers, and the last will of the frightened Japanese soldiers to resist collapsed. Driven by the Chinese infantry, the Japanese soldiers only hated their parents for having two legs, and a large number of Japanese soldiers fled to the rear front.
The third line of defenseIn just 40 minutes, the entire area was captured by Chinese soldiers, and the outer city circle of Vientiane was completely blocked. From all four directions, Chinese troops rushed towards the Japanese city like a mountain.
The Laotian people in the city were frightened to death by the artillery fire of the Chinese Communist Party, and they helped the elderly and young to escape from the city. The squadron's security circle outside the city had to temporarily add checkpoints. There were checkpoints at each exit to strictly examine those who escaped. Situ Fei's special forces mobilized some of their core members to serve as guides at various checkpoints.
All belongings of the fleeing personnel were strictly inspected, and many Japanese soldiers who were among the civilians were picked out and shot on the spot. In order to minimize casualties among Laotian civilians, the Chinese Expeditionary Force used radios and loudspeakers outside the city to publicize the policies of the Chinese Expeditionary Force to Laotian civilians in Laotian and encourage Laotian civilians to leave the city.
The Laotian royal family was also preparing to flee secretly. They killed the spies arranged by the Japanese army in the royal family and quietly left the city to escape. When the news reached the ears of Lieutenant General Matsuyama, the Lieutenant General was shocked. With the Laotian royal family in their hands as a puppet, they can order the Laotian people and the army, and they can also make the Chinese expeditionary force surrender. The lieutenant general immediately ordered a strict search to capture the Laotian royal family.
The Japanese garrison gendarmerie conducted a large-scale manhunt throughout the city, searching for the Laotian royal family. However, the King of Laos escaped from Vientiane City under the cover of his subjects. The military police struggled for a long time, but they could not find the King of Laos and his relatives.
Facing the fierce offensive of the Chinese Army, Lieutenant General Songshan issued an order to hold on to every inch of land. Then, the lieutenant general suddenly felt that he had nothing to do. He stared at the huge combat map hanging on the wall. The blue arrows representing the Chinese Communist Party had already surrounded Vientiane City. The blue arrow has pierced the city's periphery and is dividing into several groups to advance towards the inner city.
Many strongholds have lost contact with the headquarters, and there are obviously not enough messengers. Lieutenant General Matsuyama suddenly felt very sleepy, which was a longing for relief from the bottom of his heart. He suddenly felt a little disgusted with this battlefield.
The attack of the Chinese *** team encountered strong resistance from the Japanese army, and fierce fighting started in every street. Night fell unstoppably, and the Chinese soldiers, who had been fighting fiercely for a day, stopped attacking and began to consolidate their occupied areas.
In order to maintain the control and coordination of the troops, the Chinese ** Corps took the initiative to abandon some blocks that were inconvenient to defend, and connected the troops across the entire occupied area to maintain the overall advancement trend.
Yue Hanping¡¯s headquarters lived in a relatively complete building on the edge of Vientiane City. He was not very interested in the battle reports constantly fed back from the front line. He could just hand them over directly to Chief of Staff Liu Wenye. He ordered his adjutant to call Situ Fei, the commander of the special forces.
Not long after, Situ Fei strode into the headquarters and saluted with a military salute, "Sir, what's your mission?"
Yue Hanping patted him on the shoulder and said, "Sit down, it's your special forces' turn to appear. In urban warfare, you are good at breaking attacks."
Situ Fei stood up excitedly and gave Yue Hanping a military salute, "Sir, we have been gearing up for a long time and are waiting for your order!"
Yue Hanping waved his hand with a smile, "Don't be too careless, kid. The little devil is not made of clay and is at your mercy. You have many tasks, so I won't make specific arrangements. In a word, your task is to keep giving in the city. The more chaos the Japs add to the chaos, the better. If we can take the opportunity to kill a few Japs headquarters, the better."
Situ Fei said confidently: "Sir, I will definitely complete the mission. Do you have any other instructions?"
Yue Hanping looked at him with satisfaction, "No, if I must give you some instructions, it would be that your people should fight the wolves, but not let the wolves bite them. It's best to bring all your people back to me intact." "
Situ Fei solemnly gave Yue Hanping a military salute, turned around and walked out silently, and wiped his eyes with his hands before walking out of the headquarters gate.
As the night deepened, about 400 people quietly sneaked out of the Central Military Camp. They were all wearing Japanese military uniforms. It's just that the equipment has nothing to do with Japanese style. This unit sneaked out of the military camp and quickly dispersed into 35 groups of 12 people, shooting like sharp arrows into the Japanese-occupied area.
As the chief of the special forces, Situ Fei did not personally participate in the operation. He commanded from the special forces headquarters.
Every team participating in the war is equipped with a wireless walkie-talkie and a backup radio station. Two full-time snipers, two blasters, five combat soldiers, and a commander. In addition to a standard short-handled submachine gun, a 7-round Browning pistol, a German-made 20-shot shell gun, each special forces soldier also has a specially issued special combat equipment package. The sniper replaced the short-handled submachine gun with a sniper rifle modified from a carbine with a special 20-round magazine. Telecommunications soldiers and demolitioners only have one shell gun and one Browning pistol. In addition to the grenades that the blaster carries with him, he also carries 20 pounds of gunpowder and related equipment for making gunpowder bags.
