Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The Japanese generals are not fools, they will not do this, and at this time, it is impossible for the 23rd Division to retreat. If they run away, whatever the Japanese army's next combat plan is, I am afraid that it will be ruined, even if it is two  If the Thirteenth Division wants to run away, the Kwantung Army headquarters is unlikely to agree.

    Yang Zhen can conclude that the move of the 23rd Division is definitely a precursor to a comprehensive counterattack by the Japanese army. The main force of the Japanese army has not moved yet. They are still waiting for an opportunity. Maybe this opportunity is the breakthrough of the 23rd Division.  When Sunjiayingzi was on the front line.

    Thinking of this, Yang Zhen turned his head and looked at Wang Guangyu who was staring at the map. He hesitated for a moment, but still didn't fully express the idea in his heart. He still had to wait to see how Wang Guangyu made this determination.  Determination is difficult for front-line commanders, but it is necessary to make decisions even if it is not easy.

    Fortunately, Wang Guangyu did not wait too long for Yang Zhen. Just when Yang Zhen was still thinking about the direction of the Japanese army's next counterattack, and whether the main target of the attack would be behind Chen Hanzhang according to his own imagination, then  Bian Wang Guangyu has already made up his mind.

    Wang Guangyu raised his head, looked at Yang Zhen and gritted his teeth and said: "On the 1st, I am determined to move the reserve team forward and forcefully cross the Gastai River from the Sunjiayingzi line to the north of the Sujiatai Temple and enter the Chengjia compound line.  , assuming a posture of approaching the flanks of the Japanese troops on the Twelfth Front, and at the same time pushing Su Si's second-line troops into the first ditch and Dongshan Front in advance. "

    "In addition, the cavalry and armored troops from Sunjiayingzi's second-line troops on the Dajing front line were secretly transferred to the Sujiataimiao front line. Once the Japanese troops on the Sunjiayingzi front line took advantage of the opportunity of our army's reserve troops moving south, they took advantage of the opportunity to attack the Sunjiayingzi front line.  Then the tanks and cavalry groups I deployed on the Sujiatai Temple front line will attack the Japanese flanks on the Sunjiayingzi front line as quickly as possible."

    "In addition, I plan to gather all the trucks in Linxi together and deploy them north of Linxi County. Once the Sunjiayingzi front line encounters a Japanese attack, I can use our mobility advantage to quickly turn the reserve team  At the same time, more than six pontoon bridges have been secretly erected from the Sunjiayingzi line to the Gastai River from the Chengjia compound to Moshantou to ensure that our army can quickly cross the river when needed. "

    "In this way, no matter what the real purpose of the 23rd Division is, our army can respond as soon as possible, and the movement of our army's reserves south can lure the 23rd Division into revealing its true tactical intentions.  "No. Although it is easy for some accidents to occur if our military's mobility is based on mobility, it is also the best and most appropriate deployment we can do."

    Yang Zhen is generally satisfied with Wang Guangyu's deployment, but he can only say roughly, because in Yang Zhen's view, Wang Guangyu is still a bit conservative in the overall deployment. In fact, this cannot be blamed on him. After all, the Anti-Japanese Alliance  The significant increase in equipment was only last year, especially tank group operations, which most senior commanders still need to learn.

    After listening to Wang Guangyu's deployment, Yang Zhen did not answer him immediately, but just looked at him with a smile. His smile was not a big deal, but it shocked Wang Guangyu over there, and he felt so confused that he thought he  I am not satisfied with the deployment of No. 1, or there are any loopholes that I did not think of.

    Just when Wang Guangyu was about to open his mouth, Yang Zhen waved his hand and said: "It's not because of your deployment, but because of my own thinking. Although your deployment is still a little conservative, it is still quite good.  That¡¯s right, but Lao Wang, what kind of anti-tank weapon do you think is the best in anti-tank combat?¡±

    Hearing Yang Zhen's rhetorical question, Wang Guangyu was slightly startled, then thought for a moment and said: "The best anti-tank weapon is of course the anti-tank gun. Our recoilless rifles and rocket launchers are also good, but the range is still a bit short.  It is impossible to destroy them beyond the range of the Japanese tank fire, so I think the best anti-tank weapon is the anti-tank gun, and the larger the caliber, the more powerful it is.¡±

    "We had such an experience when we were fighting outside the Linxi Airport. You don't know that on the 1st, the Japanese tanks were dispatched quite suddenly, and they used machine guns to attack us beyond the range of our army's recoilless rifles and rocket launchers.  The tactics of suppressing firepower are beyond the reach of our recoilless guns and rocket launchers.¡±

    "And those Soviet-made 45mm anti-tank guns were deployed in other directions at that time. At that time, our army's machine gun positions suffered heavy losses under the firepower of the Japanese tanks, and our battalion's 12mm  When an anti-aircraft machine gun fires horizontally, unless it hits the side, it is difficult to penetrate a Japanese tank at a long distance from the front, especially the Type 97 tank with thick armor. "

    "Seeing this situation, the frontline commander's eyes turned red. He ignored the order and the four Soviet-made field guns assigned to them fired flatly. In fact, he did not know that the high-explosive grenades fired by such field guns were harmful to tanks.  There actually isWith such great destructive power, he just wanted to drive those Japanese tanks out of the effective range of their artillery. Even if they couldn't be destroyed, he just wanted to scare them away.  "

    "Unexpectedly, these seventy-six-millimeter field guns, which were forced to launch horizontal fire, hit the leading Type 97 tank with the thickest armor of the Japanese army with the first shot, directly knocking out the turret of that Japanese tank.  They were blown up, and the two Type 95 tanks were directly beaten into parts."

    "Almost everyone present at the time was shocked by the power of this field gun. They did not expect that this kind of field gun, without special armor-piercing projectiles, would be so powerful in flat fire just by firing ordinary high-explosive grenades.  It is so huge that it is much more powerful than the 37 anti-tank gun we previously equipped and the 45mm Soviet-made anti-tank gun obtained from Outer Mongolia. The troops unanimously requested the headquarters to carry out inspections of this field gun.  Imitation for use as long-range anti-tank firepower."

    Hearing Wang Guangyu's words, Yang Zhen shook his head. This guy is still a supporter of large-caliber anti-tank guns, but his vision is still a bit short. This era itself is in a period of great development of tanks.  The competition between anti-tank guns and tanks lasted throughout World War II. It is not surprising that there are such people in one's own troops.

    Looking at Wang Guangyu opposite him, Yang Zhen thought for a moment before saying: "Actually, the best anti-tank weapon is the tank itself. Of course, anti-tank guns, especially large-caliber anti-tank guns, are also relatively cost-effective.  Anti-tank weapons, but anti-tank guns can only choose a fixed firing position combat mode, which is too passive, and the larger the caliber, the more bulky it is. "

    "You can only use instant positions as launching positions. This is a bit rigid for tanks that are good at high-speed assaults. If the opponent adopts armored assault tactics of large groups, how many anti-tank artillery do you need to deploy to block the enemy's tank group?  , Ten shells may not be able to destroy a tank, but when you fire these ten shells, the tank may rush in front of you. "

    "You must know that the appearance of tanks is to prepare for attack. It is an effective combination of firepower, mobility and protection. They are active at any time and are not fixed positions. The tanks are gathered together to form a large-scale armored cluster. As long as  The supply of fuel is sufficient, and we can even travel thousands of miles in a few days.¡±

    "The emergence of tanks has created a new combat mode for thousands of miles of mobile combat. Its greatest advantage is that it effectively combines protection, mobility and firepower. It can choose any part of the front to break through, and it can carry out large-scale operations."  A range of mobile interspersed operations to encircle enemy group targets.¡±

    "The Japanese army used armored tactics to cover infantry assaults and limited the actions of tanks to cover infantry. This in itself is a manifestation of a small country with a small population and insufficient national strength. Of course, it also conflicts with the potential main target of the war, which is China itself.  It has something to do with not having many tanks and insufficient anti-tank equipment.¡±

    "Evenly distributing tanks to various divisions may seem to increase the infantry's offensive capabilities, but it limits the scope of use of tanks too narrowly and deploys them too dispersedly. If it were other countries with large tanks, this tactic of the Japanese army would even be dead.  I don¡¯t know how he died.¡±

    "What I want to remind you here is that the Japanese army's use of armor tactics was a mistake. A commander who really understands tank tactics should not use it in this way, because he did not bring out the best performance of the tank, that is,  "His mobility reflects the fact that they use the tank more as an infantry support weapon than as an assault weapon."

    "Of course, the whole world is currently exploring how to use tanks. Of course, I am not saying that the German tank tactics are the most correct. Each country's national conditions and productivity development are different, and it is in line with its own armor tactics.  It won¡¯t be the same.¡±

    "For example, the Soviets have lost tens of thousands of tanks since the outbreak of the Soviet-German war. Although they can be considered damaged or even seriously injured, it is far from saying that their armored force has been completely destroyed.  It doesn¡¯t count, because they still have a tank group that can fight, and as long as we lose more than 500 tanks, we can say that the entire army is destroyed. "

    "So every country must develop armor tactics that suit its own actual situation. It cannot completely copy other countries. Of course, it is necessary to learn from it, but it is absolutely impossible to copy it without regard to the actual situation of your own country.  Take it.¡±

    "But no matter how you change, before new anti-tank weapons come out, tanks are still the best anti-tank weapons. As a commander adapted to modern warfare, you must know how to use tanks. Of course, you are not the commander of a tank unit.  Member, what you should be thinking more about is how to act in a strategic environment.You should use the tank troops in your hands instead of thinking about how to use them tactically.  "

    "When I said you were a bit conservative in tactics, I was referring to the use of the tank brigade under your command. You also made the same mistake as the Japanese army. You used the tanks assigned to you as infantry and support weapons.  The real function of this weapon is ignored, which is its high-speed assault function. "

    "The overall combat performance of your roundabout troops this time can be said to be remarkable, but in the use of tank troops, it failed very much. Look at the distribution of the various troops in your armored brigade. They are like sheep.  Shit, a tuo in the east, a tuo in the west, there is no way to form a strong fist. "

    "Of course your use of tactics is related to the terrain of Linxi, but it may also be related to the fact that you have not yet formed the correct tactics for using tanks in your mind." To be honest, the two tanks units we have the most contact with have something to do with it.  The armies of the Soviet Union and Japan, at least now, are not successful in using tank tactics. The most successful German army is too far away from us.  "
