Chapter 501: Encounter

Yamashita's order is certainly correct. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Because its strategic purpose of reinforcing Anshan was to delay the enemy's advance and give Shenyang more time to prepare, since it was no longer possible to reinforce Anshan smoothly, and on the other hand, the 123rd Division reinforcing Shenyang could not be bombed to a pulp and could not reach Shenyang in a short time, which would cause a serious emptiness of Shenyang's troops.

Fortunately, the Ishida Wing had escaped the bombardment, so letting the Ishida Wing go all the way back to Shenyang became a win-win plan that could not only fill the forces in Shenyang but also slow down the enemy's attack.

But Ishida Daisa thinks that Yamashita is far too timid...... Breaking the road?! You must know that this is the transportation lifeline of Manchuria to the Japanese mainland, and it is not worth it to blow up these roads yourself if they are bombed by these enemy fighters!

It just so happened that Ishida Osa received another telegram from Anshan asking for help: "The enemy has arrived in Anshan, ask for support, ask for support!" ”

Ishida Daisa thought about it, and decided to treat it as if he had not received the telegram from Yamashita Yuan, and still reinforce Anshan according to the original order.

So he waved his hand confidently: "Reinforcements to Anshan, we have to show those Zhina people what a real army is!" ”

But just half an hour later, Ishida Daisa realized that he was wrong, and he was very wrong......

While the Ishida Wing was advancing towards Anshan at full speed, the 2nd and 1st Regiments of the Chinese troops were bypassing Anshan and rushing to Shenyang...... It is not difficult to bypass a city in the northeast, first of all, the terrain is relatively flat, and secondly, a group of scouts who have infiltrated the northeast in the early morning have already measured the terrain, and they have already found a suitable route to bypass, and even where they need to be reinforced or expanded by sappers are clearly marked. Again, it was the Chinese sappers who moved up with American machinery, bulldozers, and excavators...... After a while, a road was formed, bypassing Anshan, and then returning to the highway and railway to Shenyang.

This turned out to be the Chinese troops and the Japanese Ishida wing moving in the opposite direction, and half an hour later the two armies met about ten miles away from Anshan.

The battle was fought brutally...... Of course, this cruelty refers to the Japanese army.

The Chinese troops knew early on that there was a Japanese army in front of them, and as usual it was the information provided by aerial reconnaissance planes, and even Zhang Chi learned that this was a lightly armed force...... Most of the heavy equipment and ammunition of the Ishida Wing were on the trains, which were either blown up or carried by the logistics troops who remained behind.

So Zhang Chi ordered: "Don't stop, kill all the way!" ”

Wu Yuhang responded, "Yes!" The order was conveyed directly to the tanks in front, so as soon as the tank driver stepped on the accelerator, the tank "rumbled" up.

When the tanks appeared in front of Ishida, Ishida couldn't help but be stunned......

There were two reasons why he was stunned, one was that he didn't expect to meet the enemy so soon, and he originally thought that he would at least be able to reach Anshan.

The second is that he didn't expect that the Chinese army would be tanks as soon as they came up, and it was such a big tank...... He didn't know what kind of tank it was, but with its massive body and huge barrel, he knew it wasn't easy to mess with.

"Disperse! Defense! Ishida yelled at his subordinates.

He is a man with combat experience, so he knows what to do at this time...... This seemed ironic, because his combat experience had hurt him once.

But by this time, Ishida's order was already too slow.

With a "boom" of the tank gun, a shell hit the center of the Japanese army, and in an instant, more than a dozen Japanese soldiers were blown up and flew into the sky screaming.

Before the Japanese could react, several machine guns on the tank rained out bullets, because the road was wide enough...... This is also to blame on the Japanese army, in order to facilitate the transportation of the resources of the puppet Manchukuo, so they built the road to a width of six or seven meters.

Then another half-track armored car was crammed into it, and it was another roar of machine guns and rifles.

In fact, at this time, it should be the half-track armored car with more firepower...... To say that the power is of course the "Sherman" tank is more powerful, and it can destroy the enemy's defenses with one shot, but the problem is that the artillery rate of fire is slow, and the killing effect on the dense infantry in front of it is actually not ideal.

Instead, it was a half-track armored vehicle, and the 12.7 mm caliber machine gun on it was loaded with a "whoosh" bullet that knocked down the target in the past...... You must know that this kind of machine gun can penetrate the Japanese Type 95 frontal armor by more than 10 millimeters at close range, and this kind of attack is like an autumn wind sweeping away leaves, and then sweeping another piece. Everywhere the bullets passed, many Japanese soldiers were punched with a big hole in their bodies, or their hands and feet were directly broken, and after a while, there were screams everywhere.

And this is only the machine gun on the half-track armored vehicle, and there are a few infantry in the back, who carry M1 rifles to carry out accurate fire, which is a good cover for tanks and machine gunners, and occasionally throw a few grenades to blow the Japanese troops who are trying to rush to the ground.

The fighters who followed behind also came out from time to time to shoot under the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, only to make the Japanese army unable to fight back.

What's even more terrifying is that the tanks and armored vehicles kept moving forward while firing, and their speed was even faster than the speed of the Japanese army's escape...... This is an intentional act on the part of tanks and armored vehicles, and if they are too fast, on the one hand, the infantry who are responsible for the covering task behind them will not have time to keep up, and on the other hand, it will be easy for the Japanese to sneak up on the Japanese with cluster grenades.

As a result, the Japanese could only break up on both sides...... There is only one way to escape from the road.

And in doing so, they exposed themselves to the machine guns and guns of the rest of the Chinese army.

The battle lasted only a dozen minutes.

The reason why it took more than ten minutes was because the devil fled all the way ahead...... Most of the time was spent chasing me and escaping.

As for the battle between each other, it was not a problem at all, the firepower and defense of the enemy and us were completely disproportionate, on one side were tanks, artillery and machine guns, and on the other side were basically 38 big covers plus some light weapons.

So soon the road and both sides of the road were full of corpses, to be exact, the ones on the highway were not called corpses, they were called meat mud...... In order to catch up with the Japanese army, the Chinese army had to roll forward regardless of the corpses, so the corpses on the road had long been pressed to the ground and blended with the earth, while the tracks of the Chinese army's tanks and the tires and even the hulls of the cars were full of bright red, as if they had just been fished out of the red dye vat.
