Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter two thousand five hundred and eighty bold counterattack

Being a famous general is no accident, let alone luck. His courage, strategy, accurate grasp of the ever-changing battlefield situation, and his ability to seize opportunities are all indispensable. For the blocking war that is about to break out, a temporarily formed army

Western Manchuria

Major General Jing Zhanqi, commander of the Attack Corps and commander of the 1st Brigade of the 29th Corps, never thought that for five days and five nights, he would be fixed on the line from Shuangliao to Siping, passively blocking the attack, and fighting with flesh and blood several times.

Our Kwantung Army has more than 400,000 people.

Although this is the usual way of fighting a sniper battle, otherwise, it would not be called a cruel battle. Jing Zhanqi's consideration is not unreasonable, but it requires an opportunity to use the minimum cost to achieve the maximum effect.

.

Of course, in the first battle, all the troops and firepower must be used to give the Kwantung Army a show of strength. In fact, Jing Zhanqi has ordered all the brigades of the Corps to respond to the Kwantung Army's first attack.

All heavy equipment must be used and are not allowed

Xu Huihui continued to use the strength of five brigades to build up the momentum of ten or even fifteen brigades. On the Shuangliao line, the second brigade was about to engage in a firefight with the main force of the Fifteenth Army of the Kwantung Army. In the direction of Siping, the Kwantung Army

The vanguard of the army has appeared in front of the soldiers.

The aviation fleet appeared at the right time, turning a battle of blocking and breakthrough into an aerial massacre. According to Jing Zhanqi's estimation, the Kwantung Army troops eager to retreat would risk even under such ferocious bombing by the aviation force.

The attack was launched with bombs raining down, but for the blocking troops, the pressure was not great.

However, during more than 40 minutes of bombing, nearly a thousand aviation bombers and fighter jets used heavy bombs and dense bullets to repeatedly plow back and forth in the offensive formation of the Kwantung Army soldiers.

The effect achieved by flying was far greater than what the scenery war flag expected. In the face of the fierce aerial bombardment, the Kwantung Army troops were completely defeated. Although it did not reach the point of being completely defeated, it still had no offensive spirit.

The one that suffered the greatest losses was the Fifteenth Army of the Kwantung Army, because it was the first unit to launch the attack. Naturally, it became the focus of Le Yiqin's care. There were hundreds of aviation bombers and fighter jets surrounding the 15th Army.

The two divisions of the 15th Army launched a charge formation, throwing bombs vigorously. Fighters roared past from low altitude, pouring strings of bullets onto the heads of the Kwantung Army soldiers.

To make matters worse, the temporary headquarters of the Fifteenth Army in Gilgalang was also hit by several heavy aerial bombs. Although Lieutenant General Kushima, the commander of the army, was spared, he became another high-ranking Japanese soldier who fell on Chinese soil.

Officer, but a piece of shrapnel is still light

Taking care of Lieutenant General His Excellency, Lieutenant General Kushima was seriously injured. He was dying. Whether he could survive until the sun came up tomorrow was unknown. If he could still command the troops, the command authority of the 15th Army was naturally dispersed to three

On the division commander.

Each has its own plan, and the three division commanders have their own secrets. Naturally, their tactical actions will not be coordinated. The two attacking divisions were bombarded with bombs, causing countless casualties. Just gathering the troops was enough.

After working hard for a while, the 37th Division, which was still able to organize an attack and shoulder the task of blocking, was not subjected to the fierce bombing of the independent division aviation, but the overwhelming smoke and deafening loud noise behind it still made the division commander

Lieutenant General Kuriyama was frightened.

Le Yiqin, who was commanding the fleet in the sky, didn't know what Jing Zhanqi was thinking at this moment, but he had a clear understanding of the battlefield situation. From the inside, such a bombing could not lift his spirits at all. Le Yiqin's passion was for fighter jets.

The duel between them, the kind of bloody aerial combat, the bombing, the little devils who have no air defense capabilities and no air supremacy are bullying them!

After overlooking the battlefield and asking formation commanders from other directions, Le Yiqin confirmed that the bombing had achieved the expected results. As usual, he opened the ground-to-air communication channel and called, "Commander Jing Zhanqi of the Western Manchuria Interceptor Corps

Officer, I am Aviation Commander Le Yiqin. Now, our air formation has completed its bombing mission and will return home in ten minutes!"

Jing Zhanqi, who was holding a ground-to-air communication device, was naturally familiar with the famous aviation general Le Yiqin. He quickly said: "Jing Zhanqi thanks Commander Le for providing air fire support to the West Manchuria Interceptor Corps!"

Le Yiqin smiled and turned off the intercom. In his opinion, such aerial fire support was spread throughout the entire Northeastern battlefield. Relatively speaking, the battlefields from Siping to Shuangliao were not considered to be most scenes. Words like thanks were also

Listen to more.

Jingzhan Banner lowered the intercom, his eyes flashed with cold light, and he said urgently to Chief of Staff Wang Xujiang: "Chief of Staff, immediately convey my order to all the troops. Each brigade should leave only one regiment of troops to defend the blocking position.

In addition, the rest of the troops, under the cover of tank fire, immediately prepared to launch a full-scale counterattack against the Kwantung Army troops. The specific time to launch the counterattack is awaiting orders from the headquarters!"

"What?" Wang Xujiang cried out, "Brigadier Commander, please think carefully. We only have fifteen regiments in total, leaving five regiments. With ten regiments of more than 50,000 troops, we are going to attack more than 400,000 troops.

The Kwantung Army troops launch a counterattack. If you are not careful, you will be surrounded by the Kwantung Army!"

Jing Zhanqi's color suddenly changed and he shouted: "I'm executing the order, I don't have time to explain to you!"

The aviation fleet climbed up to form a formation, preparing to return home. Bullets and bombs were no longer falling like raindrops on their heads. The Kwantung Army soldiers got up from the ground covered with the blood and broken bodies of their comrades. They looked at the sky in shock, and the independence gradually faded away.

The eyes of the divisions and planes were full of lingering fear!

Jing Zhanqi put down his telescope and shouted to Wang Xujiang: "The troops attack immediately!"

On the battlefield from Siping to Shuangliao Blockade, a surprising scene occurred. More than 50,000 independent division soldiers, under the cover of more than 300 tanks, rushed out of the trenches and attacked the Kwantung Army troops on the opposite side who were stunned by the bombing.

, launched a ferocious counterattack, using more than 50,000 troops to counterattack the Kwantung Army's more than 400,000 people. No matter who looked at it, it was an extremely risky move. With one careless move, the West Manchu Interceptor Corps fell into the Kwantung Army's counter-encirclement.

, the entire army is annihilated!

But Jing Zhanqi did this, so that after the war, many officers in the division command criticized it. The sudden counterattack of the West Manchu Interceptor Corps was obviously shocked. They had just been freed from the bombing and had not yet recovered.

The soldiers of the Kwantung Army who arrived suddenly fell into chaos when faced with the counterattack of the independent division troops.

The five-way counterattack force of the Western Manchurian Interceptor Corps, like five sharp knives, fiercely inserted into the messy formation of the Kwantung Army troops. The tanks continued to pour out shells, and the straight-trajectory shells blew the Kwantung Army soldiers into pieces. The soldiers

The submachine guns in their hands were like the wind blowing, exerting great power in close combat, sweeping away the Kwantung Army soldiers who had lost their organization and were in chaos, like cutting wheat.

From time to time, wounded soldiers fell down. The field ambulance following behind quickly rescued the wounded soldiers. Jing Zhanqi's counterattack had a miraculous effect. One side had just been subjected to a fierce bombing, and its organization was disrupted. The soldiers were

When they were still in shock, one side was well prepared and took advantage of the chaos. The battlefield situation changed instantly. Almost in an instant, more than 400,000 Kwantung Army soldiers were beaten until they were stunned and retreated continuously.

Subsequently, this retreat evolved into a complete rout. It was unbelievable that with more than 50,000 troops, more than 400,000 Kwantung Army soldiers were beaten back in panic. However, Jing Zhanqi was not complacent at all. He knew very well that

He was just taking advantage of the situation, and the remaining power of the aviation bombing caught the Kwantung Army off guard, but it was impossible to take advantage of it for a long time.

Once the commander of the Kwantung Army reacts and gathers his troops, the more than 400,000 Kwantung Army soldiers can squeeze more than 50,000 of his own troops to death. Fight quickly and retreat quickly. This is the essence of this counterattack. Therefore,

, he personally mastered the counterattack distance and speed of each brigade, and immediately ordered the troops to retreat once the battlefield situation changed.

It was not only Jing Zhanqi, the acting commander of the Western Manchuria Interceptor Corps, who was able to seize the fighter plane. Major General Yuan Jinghao, the commander of the North China Field Corps, who commanded more than 400,000 troops and pursued the Kwantung Army in the Western Manchuria area, also had a large-scale aviation force.

During the bombing, he saw fighter planes. Previously, he had been struggling with how to penetrate the depth of the more than 400,000 Kwantung Army and send several brigades of troops to the weak Western Manchurian blocking force.

Now, the opportunity came, and Yuan Jinghao immediately issued an order: "The second brigade, third brigade, fourth brigade, fifth brigade, and the first armored brigade of the pursuit troops in the direction of Baolong Mountain, as well as their self-propelled artillery regiments and heavy artillery regiments, immediately

With swift and violent movements, break through the depth of the Kwantung Army troops, join up with the Western Manchu Blocking Corps on the Shuangliao and Siping lines, and accept the command of the regiment commander Jing Zhanqi!"

"The order of the attack is as follows. The 1st Tank Brigade of the Armored Corps is the leader, the 2nd Brigade is responsible for covering the left wing, the 3rd Brigade is responsible for covering the right wing, the 4th Brigade and the 5th Brigade are responsible for breaking through in the middle. Remember, do not be reluctant to fight, and do not engage in battle with Kanto

The army troops are entangled, with the ultimate goal of reaching the front line from Siping to Shuangliao. The other brigades of the Corps will launch a full-line attack to cover your actions!"

Yuan Jinghao's eyes were ferocious and bold enough, but Han Guangqi, the Corps Chief of Staff, had no objection at all. He also strongly agreed with the commander's choice of the direction of the Kwantung Army's Fifteenth Army for the penetration location. There was only one reason, the Fifteenth Army.

The army has already lost one division, and its strength is relatively weak, making it easier to break through.

Lieutenant General Kushima, the commander of the Fifteenth Army of the Kwantung Army, was really unlucky. The first victim of the North China Field Corps was his 36th Division. The aviation bombing focused on the Fifteenth Army.

At the head of the army, now, a tank brigade of the North China Field Corps and four mechanized infantry brigades are attacking in the direction of the 15th Army. If Commander Jiudao wakes up at this moment, he may be angry to death, or maybe

Scared to death!
