As the shelling ended, the soldiers of the 73rd Wing, who were shrouded in artillery fire, finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The shelling lasted nearly 20 minutes.
One shell after another fell as if they didn't want money.
They also suffered heavy losses in this shelling, attritioning at least nearly five hundred men.
And the combatants of their wing have been reduced to less than 2,000 men.
The smoke that hung over them had not yet dissipated.
The Japanese troops, lying in the snowy fields and craters, heard the assembly whistle and prepared to get up.
Suddenly, I felt that the ground trembled slightly, as if it was about to earthquake.
There was also a slight roar in front of them.
At this time, they all looked in the direction where the voice came.
But they saw a scene that made their souls scatter.
One by one, the steel behemoths swept towards them with huge cannon barrels on the snowy plain.
At this moment, the Independent Tank Regiment, the 1st Regiment, and the 2nd Regiment were encircling the 73rd Wing in three ways.
"Nani? What is it? "
When some Japanese officers saw this scene, they didn't know what it was.
It was not until after the blitzkrieg that the world recognized the power of the tank and determined its status as the king of land.
The bloodshot eyes of the commander of the 73rd Wing looked at the incoming new First Division.
He immediately pulled out his command knife and roared, "The major teams immediately gather their troops to counterattack, so that this group of stupid and cowardly Chinese people can see the power of the imperial warriors." "
He didn't realize how powerful the tank really was.
He only knew the courage of the imperial soldiers and could defeat all enemies.
And as long as they are in a scuffle with each other, the opposing artillery will not dare to fire at them.
He would rather die on the way to the charge than be blown up alive.
"Kill to give...."
Soon, led by Japanese officers, a Japanese soldier jumped out of the crater and bunker and launched a countercharge towards the tank battalion in front.
The commander of a T34 tank led by him looked at the Japanese soldiers who were swarming towards them, a little stunned.
Are these little devils so brave?
But he quickly reacted and shouted, "Battle fight." "
When the scope was aimed at the Japanese charging crowd, the gunner opened fire without hesitation.
An 85mm shell fell precisely into the Japanese crowd who launched the death charge.
"Boom..."
The shell exploded, and the Japanese troops at the center of the explosion were blown into a cloud of blood under the violent explosion.
As soon as the shot went down, six or seven little devils were directly reimbursed.
However, this vacancy was quickly filled by the little devils who rushed up from the rear.
As the first tanks fired, the tanks in the rear roared in unison.
One shell after another fell into the Japanese crowd and exploded.
But this still did not stop the pace of the Japanese death charge.
Under the brainwashing of the spirit of bushido, these ghost veterans are no longer afraid of life and death.
When the two sides were still hundreds of meters away, the two DT machine guns of the T34 tank began to hiss.
The dense bullets burst into extremely strong fire in an instant.
The Japanese troops who rushed to the front were swept to the ground.
Under the intensive fire, Sheng Sheng contained the pace of the Japanese charge.
At this time, the little devil also launched a counterattack.
Their surviving grenade canisters, light and heavy machine guns, and even three-eight caps fired at these sweeping torrents of steel.
However, their counterattack looked ridiculous under the heavy armor of the T34 tank.
But at this moment, the Japanese army, who has killed the red eye, will care about this.
"Kill to give..."
"For the sake of His Majesty the Emperor... Onboard...."
When the distance between the two sides was still two hundred meters, the little devil was even more crazy.
Their eyes looked fiercely at the T34 tank in front of them.
And at this time the infantry following behind the tank opened fire.
The gunfire of the M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle rang out like popping beans.
After filling up and emptying a magazine, soldiers half-kneeling or firing upright quickly followed the attacking group.
Whether you can hit at this distance or not, just shoot the bullet out and form a fierce enough firepower.
After all, the snowflakes raised by the tank's march made it impossible for them to see clearly ahead.
This is the real battlefield, if you want to destroy an enemy with one shot, even a sharpshooter can't do it.
Soon the two torrents collided.
The 73rd Wing of the Japanese Army, which had been reduced to about 1,000 men, was immediately turned on its back.
At this time, the other two tanks also outflanked from both sides.
They have already formed an encirclement of the 73rd Wing.
The battle was completely one-sided, under the cover of infantry.
Before the little devil could get close to the tank, he was swept to the ground by the machine-gun, rifle, submachine gun and light machine gun on the tank.
At this moment, the ferocious firepower of the new division was vividly displayed.
The siege battle against the 73rd did not last long.
At this moment, Saikimura Hyotaro simply did not care about the 73rd Wing in front.
He knew that the annihilation of the 73rd was a foregone conclusion.
So he simply abandoned the 73rd Wing directly, leaving them to stay behind.
This is also why the 73rd did not break through.
He retreated with other troops.
As soon as they rushed to the railway station in the rear, they could retreat in the military column that stayed there.
However, less than two kilometers after they retreated under artillery fire, they encountered the Third Infantry Regiment and the tank battalion directly under the division, which were blocking the front.
A total of 76 M3 Stuart light tanks and M4 Sherman medium tanks of the direct tank battalion were directly arranged in a row.
Like a steel wall, it blocked their retreat.
And behind these tanks were more than 3,600 soldiers of three regiments.
When Kimura saw this scene, he knew that he might not be able to go back this time.
The closest reinforcements to them were in Jinzhou.
But he will never surrender, the empire has only warriors, and there are no cowards who are greedy for life and afraid of death.
"Defend on the spot and prepare for battle."
The commander of the third regiment looked at the Japanese troops who were dispersing with binoculars, ready to use various bunkers as fortifications.
He waved his hand directly and said: "Order the tank battalion to attack, and the battalions will follow the tank to fight, concentrate all artillery to shoot at the Japanese army, and cover the advance of the troops." "
The three regiments signaled this war of annihilation.
One by one, the M3 Stuart light tanks and the M4 Sherman medium tanks were launched, forming a torrent of steel and swept towards the 38th Brigade of the Japanese army.
Mortars and howitzers in the rear fired in unison, and dense shells smashed into the Japanese.
It's a battle without suspense.
PS: New day, ask for a wave of flowers and evaluation tickets, monthly passes can also be smashed over, thank you for your support.
