    When the tank brigade appeared in front of the main position of the Japanese 9th Division, the performance of the division commander Matsuura Kanwei of the 9th Division was much better than that of Nishino, the commander of the regiment. He did not foolishly ask what it was.  He made a surprised sound from the enemy direction: "Where is the 32nd Regiment." The 32nd Regiment no longer exists, and the regiment flag representing their honor has now fallen into the hands of the First Division Commander Zhang Zizhong.  Here, the little Japanese medical soldier who was ordered to protect the regiment flag was kicked to the ground and kicked by several tall soldiers of the First Division before he could burn it. Some of the officers still knew the truth, so the regiment flag was immediately burned.  It was sent to the division headquarters. Unfortunately, Zhang Zizhong had never attended a Japanese military academy. He didn't know what the regiment flag meant, so he threw it to the ground easily, stepped on it and spit, and the result was this  When the regiment flag was delivered to the Northern Expeditionary Army Staff Headquarters, Jiang Fangzhen, the usually gentle and gentle deputy chief of staff, actually pointed at the regiment flag with a livid face and said: "Which bastard left footprints on this and spit on it?  How can I present it to the committee members?" Zhang Zizhong, who was usually very aggressive, was so intimidated that he did not dare to say anything on the spot. When he came out of the staff headquarters, he immediately ordered that all captured Japanese military flags and sabers must not be damaged and should be handed over to the division headquarters.  Reward, if any damage is found, twenty military sticks.  As a result, a very strange scene appeared in the subsequent battles. As long as there was a military flag or saber, the soldiers of the Youth Army would rush forward and even fight over it.  Returning to the position of the Japanese 9th Division, the tank brigade easily broke through the Japanese defense line. The officers and soldiers of the 1st and 30th Divisions following the tank brigade unceremoniously rushed into the Japanese position.  Fighting with the disrupted Japanese army, the breach continued to expand. Lieutenant General Matsuura Kanwei once planned to organize troops to fight the Chinese out, but his efforts soon ended in failure. The combination of tanks and submachine guns did not rely on the Japanese army at all.  The bravery can resist. The tragedy of the Japanese army on the Pacific battlefield during World War II was repeated again. Film after film of Japanese troops were defeated in front of the tanks of the Chinese army.  However, tanks and assault vehicles now also encounter a problem, which is the combat discipline of the Japanese army. Although the defense line was breached, the Japanese army did not collapse. Their strong faith allowed them to still stick to their positions, even without reinforcements.  They never gave up their position and used all means to continuously kill and injure the following infantry. Some Japanese soldiers who had lost hope of victory even madly pulled out grenades and threw them into the crowd of Chinese troops, even if they were shot a few times.  , they are like zombies in later science fiction movies. It is not too late until they are killed. The officers and soldiers of the 1st Division and the 30th Division were instantly frightened by the explosion. No matter how much the officers urged them, they were unwilling to move forward. Who wants to follow a madman?  In addition, the Japanese artillery also began to show its power, cutting off the possibility of follow-up by the infantry, and the attacking troops, which had suffered heavy losses, began to lose touch.  As a result, a strange scene appeared on the battlefield. Although the tank brigade broke in easily, it was in a very dangerous situation due to the lack of follow-up troops to follow up, because there was no one to deal with the tanks and armored vehicles who rushed over with cluster grenades.  The little Japanese soldiers came to risk their lives. As a result, several armored assault vehicles caught fire and exploded after being bombed several times. Seeing this situation, Gu Zhutong, the commander of the tank brigade, immediately ordered the tanks and assault vehicles to be put on the spot.  Swinging sideways, he used the 57mm running of the tanks and the machine guns of the assault vehicles to continuously bombard and shoot the Japanese troops. Then he relied on his own thousand commandos holding submachine guns to form a defense line and continuously knocked down the Japanese troops coming from all directions.  , but this is also extremely dangerous, because once the Japanese troops rush into the range of 60 meters, they will throw grenades without hesitation. In addition, submachine guns consume a lot of ammunition. Although the assault vehicle carries ammunition, once it is used up,  The consequences were disastrous. After a brief debate, the three German advisers Guderian, Maninstein, and Rommel who followed Gu Zhutong unanimously decided to adopt Maninstein's method and not stay where they were and be beaten. As expected, Gu Zhutong  He followed the good advice: "Give me the order to immediately organize the entire attack group to attack forward and try to penetrate the Japanese defense line. If the Japanese army can still persist in retreating, it doesn't matter if they penetrate back. I don't believe that their little Japan can still  No chaos, as for the losses of those idiots of the 1st and 30th Divisions, that is their own business. Who made them follow so resolutely, they almost got me in trouble. "The tank brigade immediately started the engine and started the assault.  , the armored assault vehicles were placed on both sides of the entire assault group in accordance with the instructions, relying on the machine guns on the vehicles to continuously fire at the Japanese soldiers trying to get close to the convoy. However, there would always be intermissions, and there would always be Japanese soldiers loading up with grenades.  It exploded with a bang.  Wang Zhenhua, then commander of the First Tank Regiment of the Tank Brigade and son of Vice Chairman of the National Government Wang Longzhong, truthfully recorded this tragic scene in his post-war report: "The Japanese soldiers were like crazy lunatics, not caring about their own lives at all.  Don't knowHow terrible death is. They were holding bundles of grenades and rushing towards us without fear of danger. We tried our best to use firepower to stop their crazy actions, but we still couldn't do it completely. From time to time, armored assault vehicles were hit.  It caught fire, and then the soldiers in the car had to jump out of the car to escape, because this big guy was too weak. If all our armors were tanks, it would be useless for little Japan to self-destruct.  "The actions of the tank brigade immediately caused panic among the Japanese army. Although there were Japanese defensive positions in front of them, they could not be stopped because all the heavy weapons were supporting the front line. Division commander Matsuura Kanwei saw this  situation, immediately shouted to the staff around him: "If these Chinese tanks penetrate our defense line, we will be in trouble. We will collapse across the board. Immediately order the artillery regiment to ignore the forward positions and turn around to bombard these tanks. I  I don¡¯t believe they are not afraid of cannons. We must stop them. We must stop them.  "The level of the Japanese army's artillery is really good. After receiving the order, they immediately went up with the artillery shells bare-chested, even without test firing, and bombarded the area where the tank brigade was with the fastest and fiercest firepower, and their results were quite astonishing.  , more than 40 armored assault vehicles were destroyed, and five tanks caught fire after being hit. The drivers of three of them failed to escape from the tanks, which brought brigade commander Gu Zhutong to tears of heartache. The tanks  There was a panic in the brigade. At this time, the German advisers came out. They went down to three regiments and directly helped Wang Zhenhua. Jiang Dingwen and others commanded the troops to avoid the destroyed vehicles and continue to advance. In addition, Liu Zhi was asked to lead the engineering regiment all the way.  Receive wounded soldiers and technicians with damaged equipment, and try to preserve these officers and soldiers who already have actual combat experience. Such bombardment is not all bad. At least there are hundreds of Japanese soldiers who are ready to die and the grenades in their arms.  The smoke disappeared during the shelling. Gu Zhutong clearly wrote in a post-war report that caused an uproar within the Military Commission: "Because our army overemphasized the suddenness of tactics, it did not wait for the artillery of the 1st and 30th Divisions to come up and carry out the operation.  Blindly ordering the tank brigade to attack without fire cover. Although it has indeed created huge results, the losses caused cannot be ignored. Therefore, as the commander of the entire tank force, I cannot accept the command of Chief of Staff Bai.  Agree.  "The Japanese troops who were attacking the tank brigade immediately cheered, and then they did not care to mourn for those comrades who were accidentally injured. What they have to do now is to continue to organize death squads to rush forward with cluster grenades, but their good intentions  That¡¯s where luck ends. ¡°Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz.¡±  "Just when the shelling started, dozens of small black dots suddenly appeared in the sky not far away, but the small black dots quickly turned into large black dots, and the noise became louder and louder, and finally became louder.  The fierce sound of gunfire on the battlefield was not enough to cover up. "What is this?"  "On the front line of the Japanese army, a young Japanese soldier was touching the prayer belt around his waist. Before he went off to the war, his mother and sister went to the street to ask passers-by to sew it stitch by stitch, without knowing that they  Will I be able to survive the battle, return to my hometown, and see my mother and sister again? I originally thought that I came to China just to clean up some bandit troops with low combat effectiveness, but in the battle just now, it was clear that people like myself were being besieged, and the front line was  The middle section was obviously broken through, and it was only managed by the desperate suicide attacks of the empire's warriors. At this time, there was a huge noise in the sky. The young soldier watched the roaring fighter planes attack the squadron leader beside him.  asked. Having just commanded everyone to repel an attack by the Chinese army, the squadron leader who was resting in the trench glanced at the sky and said feebly: "This is an airplane. I saw this thing when I was in Tokyo. It was mainly used by the pretentious people in the Navy.  It's used for reconnaissance, it doesn't have much use.  " "Then is this our Japanese plane?  "The young soldier asked with a little hope. In fact, he really wanted to ask the commander if we could win, but he was afraid of being scolded, so he didn't speak. The squadron leader nodded: "Of course it's our Japanese aircraft, which are lagging behind.  How could China possibly make such a good thing?  "So the Japanese soldiers who were fighting fiercely immediately cheered, but almost at the same moment, the officers and soldiers of the 1st Division and 30th Division of the Youth Army also saw the plane. They knew that this thing was theirs in Boshan yesterday.  Here, because Chief of Staff Bai, who was said to be a very important figure, arrived at Boshan by this guy, they also cheered loudly, but now the Japanese soldiers were confused. In the end,  This Japanese soldier who longed to go home returned to his hometown after forty years. According to the National Assembly Resolution No. 112 of 1960, the remains of all Japanese soldiers who participated in the Shandong War in 1919 will be cremated and returned to their hometown for burial.  The Little Black Dot was actually composed of forty bombers and twenty fighters led by General Yang Xianyi himself.The battle group had only one goal, the Japanese artillery position, to find it and destroy it.  Coincidentally, because the division commander Kanwei Matsuura urgently ordered to turn the muzzle to bombard the tank brigade, the Japanese artillery wing failed to change the artillery position in time after the last shelling was completed. The result was naturally tragic.
