Chapter 34: The Decisive Battle (1)

Yanagawa Heisuke agreed to Tanabe's request.

An hour later, Tanabe Moritake had already set foot on the sea pond of Jinshanwei.

However, at this time, the sea water has begun to recede, and more than 10 meters and nearly 20 meters of tidal flats have been exposed under the roots of the sea pond.

Seeing this, Tanabe Moritake immediately became anxious, turned around and yelled at the landing craft that had not had time to dock on the sea: "Hurry up, drop quickly, hurry up, hurry up, hurry up!" ”

In fact, there is no need for Tanabe Moritake's reminder at all!

Before the old devil could finish speaking, one after another, large engine boats, medium engine boats, and small steamers rushed to the beach, trying to get the tanks and armored vehicles on the landing craft ashore before the tide receded.

However, it was still too late!

Except for a very small number of landing craft that were lucky enough to get close to the sea pond, the vast majority of the rest of the landing craft were stranded in the mud of the tidal flats, allowing the motors to stir up muddy water behind the boat, and they could not advance an inch!

"Your Excellency General, it's stranded, what should I do now?"

Tetsujiro Yamada, who landed together, asked with a dark face.

Yamada Tetsujiro is the wing leader of the 41st Infantry Wing, that is, the Fukuyama Wing, this old devil was in the limelight in the Battle of Xinkou, and a single wing defeated more than a dozen divisions of the Central Army and the Jin Sui Army!

But this time, he planted a big heel fight in Jinshanwei! Miserable fall!

So the old devil Yamada was annoyed and angry, and he also went ashore to supervise the battle!

"Order, all landing craft immediately release tanks and armored vehicles!" Tanabe Moritake said viciously.

The old devil is also out of the way this time, he can see very clearly, if he can't take Jin Shanwei today, there will never be any good results waiting for him, so there is no need to have any scruples at all!

As soon as Tanabe Moritake gave the order, dozens of large engine boats and medium engine boats opened the front hatch one after another, pushing one after another Type 95 light tanks and Vickers armored vehicles into the water.

Tanabe Moritake had hoped for a miracle, but unfortunately, most of the tanks or armored vehicles fell into the mud of the tidal flats as soon as they broke away from the landing craft!

And then, the more these tanks or armored vehicles struggle, the deeper they sank!

Eventually, one tank after another or armored vehicle slipped into the deep water, stalled due to the flooding, and finally fell into the mud of the tidal flats!

"Yaga!" After seeing this scene, Tanabe Moritake's face turned green with anger, but there was nothing he could do.

Tetsujiro Yamada stepped forward again and asked, "Your Excellency General, only two Type 95 light tanks plus one Vickers armored car have successfully landed ashore, do you want to continue the attack?" ”

Before, Tetsujiro Yamada would never have this question!

Before, even if there was only one infantry squadron ashore, Yamada Tetsujiro would dare to take this squadron of devil infantry to launch a strong attack on the coastal defense position of Guojun!

You know, he is a man who led an infantry wing to defeat more than a dozen divisions of the national army!

But now, although there are still more than thirty infantry squadrons on the shore of the devil infantry combined, Yamada Tetsujiro has no courage to attack at all!

Nothing else, the terrain is too unfavorable!

At this time, Tetsujiro Yamada really hated those staff officers of the staff headquarters of the base camp!

Which idiot made the decision to choose the landing site at Jinshanwei in Pingchuan?

Although the coast of the Flat River is conducive to the rapid disembarkation of heavy equipment and infantry, the question is, what if there are defenders on the shore and cannot go ashore quickly?

This time, this uncovered, flat terrain immediately became the cemetery of the Japanese army!

Jinshanwei has really become a cemetery, from yesterday early morning to now, conservatively estimated, at least more than 3,000 Japanese infantry have died on this beach, and the blood flowing from the Japanese officers and soldiers has almost dyed all the beaches of Jinshanwei red for more than ten miles!

Tetsujiro Yamada lost the courage to attack, because he still had a way out, and even if he lost today, he was still the co-captain of Fukuyama United!

But Moritake Tanabe has no way out!

If he still can't take down Jin Shanwei today, he, the chief of staff of the Tenth Army, will be the end!

At that moment, Tanabe Mori Takei gritted his teeth and said in a fierce voice: "Order, the troops that have gone ashore immediately enter the attack!" The first and second remnants of the troops were regrouped and immediately put into the attack, in a word, they vowed to break through the defense line of the Chinese army before noon at all costs and open the gap in Jinshanwei! ”

After saying that, Tanabe Moritake climbed into one of the Type 95 light tanks twice.

Then he shouted to the tank commander standing in the turret: "You drop, hurry down!" ”

The commander of the devil car did not know why, so he could only obediently get out of the turret and jump off the tank.

Moritake Tanabe did not hesitate to drill into the turret, and then raised his right hand to lead forward, shouting, "Forward!" ”

The tank driver did not dare to disobey, and as soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the Type 95 light tank slowly climbed up the sea pond that was only half a meter high in the rolling of the tracks.

Before, at a height of several thousand meters away, Moritake Tanabe could only see a rough idea, but now he can see it clearly!

As far as the eye can see, I can see that the beach that is more than ten miles long has almost been covered with the corpses of Japanese officers and soldiers!

Before today, Moritake Tanabe had always lacked a clear concept of the idiom of corpse pillows, but today, he has a deep understanding of this idiom!

Corpse pillow, this is really a corpse pillow!

Thousands of meters away, at the end of the bloody road paved by countless Japanese officers and soldiers with corpses, is the coastal defense position of the Chinese Army!

In an instant, Tanabe's eyes were filled with blood and turned red! So much so that the entire battlefield scene that I saw turned red!

The next moment, Tanabe Moritake raised his right hand and roared hysterically.

"Tao times change, Tao times change ......" In the loud roar of the old devil, the Type 95 light tank numbered 88 had already crossed the sea pond and slowly descended to the plain.

Immediately after the tanks, there were groups of devil soldiers with bayonets!

Almost as soon as the devil infantry crossed the sea pond, the national juns on the opposite position opened fire, and dense bullets poured over like a torrential rain.

Moritake Tanabe instinctively shrank and hid his body in the open turret.

In the next moment, a dense rain of bullets fell, clanging on the tank's armor.

Because of the protection of the tank, Tanabe Moritake was unscathed, but then the devil infantry who crossed the sea pond fell down one by one, and Tanabe Moritake's ears were immediately filled with endless screams!

Faced with the barrage coverage of Guojun, the clever devil infantry hurriedly hid behind the tank.

But there are only two tanks, and they can't cover so many infantry at all, so more devil infantry can only rush forward and then keep falling to the ground!
