Chapter 263 Recovering Shanhaiguan
The target locations are clear, and they fought in Zhangjiazhuang when they landed.
Complete victory!
The result this time will not be surprising!
At least that's what Captain Guan Gu Youxiang thought, if it weren't for their tanks that were equipped with wireless intercom systems.
It would not wait for the report one by one before setting off, and the national army's tanks were more advanced in this regard.
The tanks imported by the National Army from Germany have radio intercom equipment on them, and each tank can talk to each other and fight in joint operations during the journey.
However, the national army imported too little tanks, and when they attacked Jiangshan Wharf under the command of the military guidance regiment sent by Germany, they were completely wiped out by the naval guns of the Japanese Navy's Third Fleet.
This battle made the National Army Command misunderstand the role of tanks: this thing does not work much.
But they had no choice but to deal with the Japanese tanks.
...
In order to regain the Zhangjiazhuang defense line and block this gap, the commander of Shanbao Chong Martial Arts did his best.
When the 11th Cavalry Regiment, Captain Tokugawa Takuya Regiment received the order to attack, he was not as excited as the infantry and tank teams.
Its cavalry team has been running around since it got ashore.
The war horses ran fast on four legs, so the division commander considered them wherever there was a situation on the entire battlefield.
The more than 700 Japanese in the Cavalry Regiment can withstand high-intensity battles, but although the war horses under their crotch are speechless, they protest with their thin bodies.
The war horse did not rest well, and it was too tiring to run every day, so the body quickly lost weight.
Despite this, Captain Tokugawa Takuya still did not object.
"Hayi!" He stood at the right time and accepted the order.
Although he was accepting orders through the long telephone line, he was still as serious as the division commander in person.
Captain Tokugawa Takuya, who put down the microphone, immediately ordered: "The whole team gathers! Target Zhangjiazhuang!"
This is also the place where they fought. In fact, the various defense lines and cavalry corps of the 11th Infantry Division are familiar with each other.
The commander of the Shanbao Chong Martial Arts Division was also aware of the fatigue of the cavalry corps: otherwise, when the first line of defense was lost, it would have the cavalry dispatched.
The cavalry corps are now attacking, which is because it believes that it must use thunder means to push out the national army that has broken through the gap.
You must block the gap as quickly as possible, and you know the advantages and disadvantages of your own defense line.
If the national army rushed in from the opened gap, the rest of the entire defense line would become a decoration.
The national army has already attacked, what is the point of such a defense line?
It was precisely because of this consideration that the commander of Shanbao Chong Martial Arts Division had to send the cavalry corps out.
At the same time, it also received good news from the front line: "The national army has stopped attacking!"
This news is definitely good news for the Japanese fighting on the front line: they repelled another attack from the national army.
Listening to the ears of the commander of Shanbao Chong Martial Arts, this undoubtedly represents a possibility: the national army is preparing to enter through the gap!
If the national army is really like this, it will really cost the 11th Division.
Fortunately, it has already responded first, so let’s wait for news of victory to come from the front line!
When the Nanjing Military Commission's order to stop the offensive reached the front line, it was immediately implemented.
Wei Mingyang's special combat mixed regiment also stopped moving forward, establishing defense lines and cleaning the battlefield, these are all basic operations.
Wei Mingyang still took a fancy to the barbed wire mesh set up by the Japanese and ordered the battalions to move the barbed wire mesh when they built defense lines.
He knew very well that the Japanese had only opened a gap in the second line of defense.
My own regiment has become the only one on the battlefield, attracting attention like the brightest star in the sky in the early morning.
In this case, if the Japanese did not have some movement, they would not believe it with their toes.
His regiment's current defense line was made by borrowing trenches built by the Japanese, although the bunkers and fortresses could not be restored.
However, the deep and wide trenches are still very useful and can reduce the amount of soil work.
The only thing to pay attention to is to prevent the attack of the Japanese troops.
This is what Wei Mingyang is most worried about, but fortunately he commanded the 16th Artillery Regiment in the morning.
Although he was commanding the battle in the morning, the artillery was fought by the Sixteenth Regiment, so the brothers of the Sixteenth Regiment received 90% of the credit.
This made Wei Mingyang's request very reasonable now: he asked the cannons of the 16th Regiment to support the brothers of the Infantry Regiment.
According to the shooting parameters reported by Wei Mingyang, several shells were tested.
Prepare for the possible bombings in the future, and this requirement is met.
The ordinary soldiers of the special combat mixed regiment did not understand what the shells that suddenly fell three hundred meters in front of the defense line did.
The shells fell to the ground and did not explode. They smashed into the mud like stones, and there was no movement.
But commanders like Gu Zuo and others were extremely happy: the regiment was far-sighted and had already prepared the artillery fire at this time.
These battalion commanders were originally worried that the Japanese would come to attack, but now they are looking forward to the Japanese to attack.
Wei Mingyang's regiment now has more than 4,000 officers and soldiers, and most of them were still from the security regiment a few days ago.
Some of them said better are the security team, and some of them said less well are the farmers.
Nowadays, this kind of dredging fortifications is much easier for them than in war.
Miao Youdao put the soil into the sack neatly, and asked the people around him: "Brother Fu! Have you found Jinya today?"
"No!" Shi Yufu, who was called Brother Fu, said no, with a very excited expression on his face.
"I didn't find it either! I heard that someone in the Fourth Battalion found it!" Miao Youdao said enviously.
"They are rushing to the front, so of course it is easy to find good things." Shi Yufu said with envy.
"It's good when it's our turn to rush in front!" Miao Youdao said with emotion.
The second company commander Yan Chengbing heard their conversation and said with a smile: "If you want to be a vanguard, you have to do it well."
"Lianse! You came with us, how can you do it well?" Miao Youdao asked quickly.
"As long as you do everything, follow the command! You can't stop when you rush, and you can't stop when you rush." Yan Chengbing said concisely.
"That's all! Aren't we all doing this today?" Miao Youdao was happy.
