Chapter 336: Brilliant results

The rumbling sound of cannons was mixed with the whistling sound of landslides. Chinese officers and soldiers familiar with hail rocket launchers knew that this was a volley of the mobile artillery regiment, and the Japanese must be in great trouble again. The diamond-shaped attack group formed by five tanks made up for the front ten kilometers wide, with artillery fire strikes, aircraft bombing and strafing, tank cover infantry fighting vehicles charging, and ammunition in units of tons was projected towards the Japanese position. Faced with this speed of consuming steel, the Japanese army was ashamed of its own.

Among the rising explosion columns of smoke, the broken limbs and arms were blown into the sky and fell down one after another. Perhaps Nakajima's situation was better than himself? The Sixth Division, which was counterattacked by the Third Armored Division, has been completely divided, and there is no effective tactical cooperation between the various troops at all. It is already a matter of time before it is annihilated.

Tani Suo was quietly kneeling on a white cloth. The adjutant was holding a southern pistol in his hand and waiting aside. A pot of sake and a samurai sword unsheathed. The four words "The End of Sake" are the most appropriate descriptions of Tani Suo at this moment. However, Tani Suo didn't know that the commander of the 16th Division, Nakajima Isaogo, who was thinking of, had now turned into a broken corpse. Dozens of Chinese soldiers squatted on the ground curiously and watched the man holding the bag and trying to explode the tank. As a result, he was sieve by the machine gun. The corpse that was accidentally crushed by the subsequent tank was said to be a Japanese lieutenant general. The Chinese soldiers were very curious. The Japanese resisted tragically.

Inside the tree hole, under the ditches, under the destroyed chariots, and in the cracks of stones, there were Japanese soldiers who were resisting everywhere. Some Japanese soldiers even crawled on the ground with grenades and pretended to be dead. When the Chinese soldiers passed by, they jumped up and detonated. Therefore, some Chinese soldiers who were full of plants and trees threw grenades and shot at all possible targets. It was obviously not safe to poke the corpse with bayonets.

The establishment of annihilation of two standing divisions of the Japanese army in a system was also a very great result for Zhang Xuewu. It was better to cut off one of the Japanese troops than to hurt his ten fingers. He took the initiative to attack with all the troops in the tenth war zone, and fought fiercely for a day and night to completely annihilate the 6th and 16th divisions of the Japanese army. In addition, the Japanese Kwantung Army Chariot Division and the 23rd Mechanized Division that were annihilated in Baotou. In this battle, the 10th war zone troops of Zhang Xuewu's headquarters were annihilated in a system and severely damaged the four Japanese divisions. Annihilation of nearly 100,000 Japanese troops can be said to have injured the arrogant Kwantung Army.

However, the losses in the 10th War Zone were also extremely huge, not only was the reserved ammunition consumed. The weapons and equipment integrity rate of each unit also dropped astonishingly. In particular, the three armored divisions, Chaoyang, Chifeng, Chengde and Zhangjiakou, all the settlements surrounding the fortress cities of the four fortress cities were destroyed. Two of the four garrison divisions were almost bare. The newly formed fourth division of the Youth Army, which attacked Lingyuan, also suffered heavy damage since its establishment. In addition to the smooth battle of the Baotou direction, the battle against the Japanese Kwantung Army First Front Army, Second Front Army and Third Front Army also paid a certain amount of casualties as a price. The 23rd Mechanized Division large-scale surrender only occurred once, and almost all of the other Japanese troops resisted to the end. Needless to say, surrendering, it was very difficult to catch a prisoner.

Chaoyang Fortress under the setting sun was in a mess, and this was the core battlefield of this battle. The fortress was broken by the Japanese army, and except for the core fortifications of Langshan, it was held until the end. More than 70% of Chaoyang Fortress were all destroyed. Almost all buildings above the second floor in the city were destroyed to varying degrees. Some were changed to temporary bunker fortifications for the garrison troops themselves, while others were destroyed by Japanese artillery fire of different calibers. Even under the rubble everywhere, you can even see broken limbs and broken arms.

Type 92 infantry cannon, Meiji Forty-One 75mm field cannon, Taisho 14th year 105mm howitzer, Meiji 15th year 15th year 100mm field heavy howitzer? Is this thing very antique? How can the Japanese be so fucking willing?

A captain officer lying lazy next to the wreckage of a destroyed tank muttered to himself as he looked at the huge bullet holes in the walls of a department store.

The afterglow of the sunset reflected on the wound after the stitching on his forehead. The smoke and oil on his face turned his skin into bronze. After this battle, Lu Yu was surprised to find that he seemed to have grown up overnight. There are too many separations between life and death.

A limping officer wearing a coat with a tweed coat of mud, a general who was wearing a captive Japanese artillery, looked at the captured Japanese artillery and said as if he had known it: "There is a bastard's 150-mm Cannon, why didn't he see Meiji for fifteen years? The counterattacking troops have seized four abandoned 196 styles in the suburbs? Didn't there be a 197 style?"

After wiping the small notebook, she sat next to Lu Yu. In the Chaoyang Fortress, wearing a tank hat and a school officer's coat, only Dai Peng, the commander of the first garrison division, used his bandaged hand to take out a pack of wrinkled and slightly blood-stained Japanese cigarettes from the pocket of the ragged coat. He lit it with a kerosene lighter, took two breaths happily, and sucked in front of him.

Dai Peng threw the cigarette directly to Lu Yu and said, "Don't you want to quit smoking? Why did you suddenly want to smoke again?"

Lu Yu gave Dai Peng a blank look and said, "You colonels have special indicators, where are we? We are still addicted to smoking. After smoking, we have no need to smoke. We can only shout to quit smoking. Who will quit smoking if you smoke?"

"How about madam?" Lu Yu glanced at Dai Peng, and Dai Peng took a deep breath and said, "It's okay! Before the war, she and the children were transferred by transport plane. The two female researchers from your technical department were transferred together!"

Dai Peng threw away the cigarette that was not long and spat, saying, "I'm used to smoking those with filters, but those without butts are not used to them. How are the losses of your test troops?"

Lu Yu tapped the wreckage of the tank under him with his hand and said, "Sir Dai, you have seen it all, you have tried it all! All of them have been fought! Except for the medium-sized main battle tank of the No. 04 Iron Cavalry, we evacuated ourselves, the rest were all destroyed until the end of the battle."

Dai Peng nodded and said, "Without your test team, Dongcheng might have been lost long ago. Maybe the entire Chaoyang Fortress could not be defended. You are the mainstay! At least six or seventy Japanese tanks were destroyed at the breakthrough point that the Japanese army smashed, causing the Japanese to cover you with heavy artillery. What are the casualties?"

When talking about casualties, Lu Yu was slightly stunned and said, "The tank crew lost 60% of them, and they were basically killed by hits. The injured ones were basically rescued. The water cabinet ammunition box of the jackal light tank was good. When it was destroyed, the ammunition was almost used up. In addition, there was no tank ammunition to explode without any tank ammunition."

Dai Peng suddenly seemed to remember something and said: "What's the matter with the armored soldiers who died of severe burns in a field hospital?"

Lu Yu took a deep breath, was silent for a while and said a little snorted: "The Maybach gasoline engine is not reliable! If I used the diesel engine of Tieqi, even if it was destroyed, the Huang Tao unit would not be burned like that?"

Dai Peng suddenly said a little strangely: "Since your design institute has a diesel engine, why don't you equip Jackal light tanks with diesel engines? You know that the Maybach gasoline engine is not reliable, but you still use it? Isn't this just taking human life? This is extremely irresponsible!"

Faced with Dai Peng's aggressive questioning, Lu Yu said helplessly: "The size and length of our diesel engine exceeds the limit of the Jackal tank power compartment, and its power is slightly worse than Maybach. For light tanks, maneuverability is everything."

Dai Peng nodded and treated the light tanks as fixed firepower points. There was no way. Even though he knew he was dead, he fought to the end. This kind of spirit of dying was common for the Chinese people. Dai Peng stood hard on the wreckage of the destroyed tank and looked towards the breakthrough. The nine tanks on our side were all damaged. The various Japanese tanks buried with them were densely blocked. The Japanese army's abandoned corpses were everywhere, and many of them were crushed by subsequent attacking tanks, and the dead corpses and wreckage of the chariots were everywhere.

The bodies and turrets of the destroyed jackal light tank are all facing the direction of the breakthrough. Even if they are destroyed and burned, they show the mighty spirit of not surrendering. The death of the Japanese chariots is very strange, with almost all positions and postures.

If the Japanese chariot destroyed by jackal light tanks did not explode, it would at least retain a complete appearance. The destroyed by the Iron Cavalry were basically broken into parts and scattered all over the ground. Various human limbs mixed with the remains of the chariot were barbecued at high temperatures and emitted a scent of meat. However, the people present at this time basically had no appetite.

Dai Peng stood in the middle of a ruined battlefield, and suddenly felt extremely proud. A man must have a competitive mentality. He commanded thousands of troops to win victory. Sometimes, perhaps without the cruel dismemberment of enemies in hand-to-hand combat, he came happily. As more soldiers killed, he naturally had a bloodthirsty desire. The enemy's limbs, heads, and internal organs were all a way of visual satisfaction.

Dai Peng looked at the wreckage of the three destroyed Japanese Type 97 medium-sized combat vehicles and said to Lu Yu: "What's wrong with the three over there?"

Lu Yu stood up and looked at it, "The Japanese are used to using ammunition boxes, sandbags and tank spare weight wheels, and fixed them to the head of the 97-changed car with a wire rope, which is equivalent to an extra layer of armor. The armor-piercing projectiles fired by the jackal-style 50mm caliber sixty-fold tube and 52-fold tube tank gun can penetrate at close range, and it is unclear from the long distance. The fifty-mm high-explosion anti-tank grenade is almost useless when it is fired, but the result is the same whether it is modified or not to the 100-mm cannon on the Iron Cavalry."
