Chapter 660: Quick Break
Shojiro Iida arrived at the front of the map to see what Hu Bin's purpose was. Because now he is very worried that Hu Bin will come and attack Mandalay.
Hu Bin, on the other hand, was sitting in the command headquarters, not worrying about the things ahead at all, and had already dispatched four divisions, a special regiment, an armored brigade, an artillery brigade, and an antiaircraft artillery brigade, and mobilized more than 90,000 troops.
"Boom, boom, boom!" On Xiang Feng's side, Xiang Feng's armored brigade was quickly attacking the devil's defensive position, before they were all British troops defending in many directions, and after the British troops left yesterday, they turned to defend Hu Bin's side, so the position on this side was not completely repaired at all.
Now the brigade commander of the 451 Brigade knows very well that once those tanks are allowed to drive up, it will be a massacre, but now they have no effective way to stop it, because the artillery positions on their side have been attacked, and the heavy machine guns on those tanks are also suppressing them, and they will not give the Japanese troops a chance to raise their heads at all.
"Baga, give me a counterattack, counterattack, they're coming up soon, hurry!" The brigade commander of the 451st Brigade shouted loudly at the observation port,
The troops of Xiang Feng's armored brigade had reached a place less than 300 meters away from the position, and now they were firing at it as they were driving, and the heavy machine guns on the tanks were also shooting at the top of the mountain, and those devils didn't dare to raise their heads at all.
Behind the tanks, there were thousands of infantry with new rifles, who fought in conjunction with the armored brigade and covered the actions of the armored brigade.
"Boom, boom!"
"Da Da Da!"
"Damn, get the explosives pack. Wait for the tanks to come up and blow them up for me! "A devil's squad leader shouted loudly, now they use rifles and heavy machine guns, for those tanks, it's like tickling, it's useless at all. It can only be fried with explosives packs.
"Attention infantry, attention infantry, prepare to disperse immediately, prepare to disperse immediately!" The commander of a tank regiment sat in the tank, and when he saw that his side was less than 200 meters away from the devil's side, he immediately took the microphone and ordered, and after the infantry behind heard the sound, they quickly dispersed and began to cover the advance of those tanks.
"Damn it!" The brigade commander of the 451 brigade saw the soldiers emerging from behind the tanks. Quite on fire, which meant that their troops simply had no way to rush in front of the tanks and blow them up.
"Brigade commander, this place cannot be defended, we must retreat, our soldiers are now crushed in the trenches, unable to move, when they come up. It's a massacre, brigade commander. Order a retreat! When the chief of staff saw the situation below, he anxiously shouted to the brigade commander.
"Will we be able to outrun tanks and bullets? You tell me how to withdraw, can I withdraw? The brigade commander shouted angrily at the chief of staff,
When the chief of staff heard it, he was immediately stunned, and only then did he find out. They faced not ordinary infantry units, but armored ones, and there was simply no way to organize a retreat, since there were no troops capable of holding back the attack of tanks.
"Damn, why can't our tank guns start. Get them moving! The brigade commander shouted anxiously, they were equipped with anti-tank guns, but they never saw those anti-tank guns fire.
"It's useless, they have a lot of heavy machine guns specifically staring at our anti-tank guns, and our trenches are not dug deeply, and the soldiers who operate the anti-tank guns simply have nowhere to hide!" The chief of staff said as he stood behind.
"Yaga!" The brigade commander heard it and cursed. Now he was fully able to predict the final outcome of his troops, and he could no longer withdraw, and he could not stop the attack of those tanks.
"Send a telegram to the commander, the 451st Brigade has decided to live and die with the position!" The brigade commander spoke suddenly.
"Ahh When the chief of staff heard this, he was stunned for a moment, but he reacted quickly, now they can only fight hard, it is good to be able to kill a Chinese soldier, it is impossible to escape.
Therefore, when the staff officers inside heard the chief of staff say that they would send a telegram, they immediately burned the military flags and important materials.
"Boom, boom!"
"Kill!" At this time, the tanks had already rushed to the positions of the devils, and the infantry of the armored brigade began to jump into the trenches after the tanks went up the hill, adjusted the rifles to burst into the mode of continuous fire, and shot at the devils who were still alive in the trenches.
Another devil in the trench wanted to fight bayonets with the Chinese soldiers, but the heavy machine gun on the tank did not agree, and it was strafing at them, and many devils fell directly into the trench, and the fighters behind also rushed over and shot directly to kill the devils hiding in the trench.
"It's over, how can it be so fast, how can it be so fast!" The command set up in the back saw that the position in front was about to be broken through, and it was a little difficult to accept,
From the start of the battle, it has not been 20 minutes now, and the Chinese troops have rushed to the trenches, this speed is too fast, but it is also a good time for them to choose to attack, one is to kill the devil's artillery position first, so that the devil's artillery has no way to fire support the front line,
The other is that the devils have just moved to this side, the positions have not been completely repaired, the trenches are not dug deeply, and the anti-tank guns have not been installed, they were rushed up by those tanks.
"Order the front, expand the depth, quickly assault and kill them, ask for speed!" Xiang Feng immediately shouted to the staff officers beside him after seeing his tank troops rushing to the devil's defensive position.
"Yes!" The staff officer immediately went to send a telegram to the commanders of the three regiments of the armored brigade.
"Report, telegram from the special regiment, they killed the artillery unit of the devils, those cannons have not been destroyed yet, let's go and receive them!" A staff officer came to Xiang Feng's side and said.
"Okay, send a telegram to the artillery brigade, let them receive it, and when the time comes, it can be directly dragged to the front line to be used." Xiang Feng nodded and said to the staff officer.
"Yes!" The staff officer left immediately.
"It's really too fast for Made, the strange Brother Bin said, to make good use of the advantages of the tank, fight more assault blitzkrieg, this is a blitzkrieg, if the devil doesn't react, kill him first!" Xiang Feng looked at the distance and said with a smile, 3 minutes later, Xiang Feng received a telegram from the head of the regiment in front, saying that it had penetrated the devil's defensive position, and now it began to spread and kill.
"Send a telegram to Division Commander Li Qinwei that our division has broken through the defensive position of the Japanese 451 Brigade, and your division can attack. In addition, the artillery brigade and armored units will soon be maneuvering, and it is expected to be on your side in 2 hours! Xiang Feng said to the staff officer.
"Send a telegram to Brother Bin, our department has broken through the defensive position of the 451st Brigade, and now we are expanding the results of the battle, and in 20 minutes, we will send out a regiment of armored troops to escort the artillery brigade to Banmao's side." Xiang Feng continued, and the staff officers behind him were quickly recording those orders.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The fire caused by the explosion in the distance was still rising into the sky, for Xiang Feng, the main battle was over, and the devils of this defense line had been cut into 4 sections, and they couldn't retreat if they wanted to.
But for Iida Shojiro, he was completely shocked, from the beginning of learning that the 451st Regiment was attacked, to receiving the last telegram, it was less than 20 minutes, and according to the report sent by the 451st Regiment, Hu Bin's side dispatched an armored brigade of troops, an armored brigade against one of his own infantry brigades, and it took 20 minutes to break through the defensive line, which made Iida Shojiro difficult to accept.
"Yaga!" After Iida Shojiro saw the telegram of the 451 Brigade, he slapped the telegram on the table, stood up angrily, and then walked back and forth in the headquarters quickly with his hands behind his back, and the other staff officers could only do things honestly!
"Did you analyze Hu Bin's goal?" Shojiro Iida suddenly stood up and received it in front of those staff officers.
"Report, not yet, at present, we have only found Hu Bin's armored troops, other troops have not found it, and we don't know if they are coming!" When the chief of staff heard this, he immediately stood up and said to Shojiro Iida.
"Damn, it's impossible for Hu Bin to hit us in one place, remind our 33rd Division, 55th Division, and 18th Division, we must be vigilant, inform them of the situation of the 451st Brigade, and let them be more vigilant!" Shojiro Iida shouted angrily.
"Hey!" The chief of staff nodded.
"Damn, that's amazing!" Shojiro Iida walked quickly with his hands behind his back, and it was difficult for him to accept this fact now,
He thought that Hu Bin was very powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful, a brigade of troops, 20 minutes can't be stopped, not only can't be stopped, but there is no chance to retreat, so he was forced to fight with Hu Bin's troops, not so much fighting, but rather sending them to death,
Now they can no longer contact the situation of the troops in front, because if they send a telegram, it means that it is very likely that the whole army will be destroyed, and all those code books will be burned, so that they will not receive the telegram in the past.
And at this time, Okamura Ningji also knew the situation of the 451 Brigade, he was not angry, he knew Hu Bin, Hu Bin either did not move, if he wanted to move, the opponent would not have time to react at all, because Hu Bin had already calculated those times.
"It's good to come out, it's good to fight when it comes out, now it's an armored brigade that doesn't come out, and there are still 6 infantry divisions that haven't come out yet, and it looks like it's going to come out almost tonight!" Okamura Ningji sat there and said faintly, he was not worried about Hu Bin's troops coming out, but he was afraid that he didn't know where Hu Bin's troops were. (To be continued.) )
