Chapter 618: Defensive Battle
After a long time, the commander of the 39th Division of the little devil came to his senses, stepped off his armored car calmly, looked at the devastated battlefield, and his heart was dripping blood.
As far as the eye can see, a few kilometers ahead, there are all the corpses of the little devils, on the highway, on both sides of the road, the corpses of the little devils are lying full, at this time, many little devils are silently cleaning the battlefield, collecting the corpses of the little devils one by one and preparing to bury them on the spot.
There are countless guns and ammunition scattered on the ground, and the little devils are picking them up one by one.
Seeing the miserable battlefield, the little devil division was silent for a long time, and the pain in his heart was only known to the commander of the little devil division, this battle was completely a one-sided massacre, and his own infantry had no power to resist in the face of the chariot group of the 36th Group Army.
"Your Excellency Division Commander, we have suffered heavy losses, and the 1st Wing, our vanguard unit, has also sent a telegram, less than ten kilometers ahead, there is a huge blocking position of the 36th Group Army, which has cut off our way forward, should we take a small road and bypass it?"
Hearing this, the commander of the little devil division shook his head, and thought in his heart, if you change to a small road, your own heavy equipment, such as armored vehicles, trucks, mountain artillery and other heavy equipment, as well as a truckload of ammunition and other materials, will definitely not be able to pass, and many trucks are still loaded with supplies from their own division in the past few days, without these things, even if their own troops and their own light infantry go by, what can they do?
Without heavy equipment and sufficient ammunition supplies, their own infantry not only suffered a significant decrease in combat effectiveness, but also. Once the ammunition is exhausted, once it is surrounded and annihilated by the 36th Group Army, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The head of the little devil division felt helpless in his heart. Today, the only way is to break through the defensive positions of the 36th Army head-on.
However, now his own division has been hit by this blow. When morale is low, it will be very difficult to break through the positions defended by thousands of troops of the 36th Army head-on.
"Have we counted our casualties?" The commander of the Little Devil Division wanted to find out the casualties of his troops before making a decision.
Seeing that his division commander asked, the little devil chief of staff next to him immediately stood up and replied respectfully: "Your Excellency the division commander, our preliminary statistics show that our soldiers have lost more than 5,000 people. More than 2,000 people were injured, hundreds of whom were seriously injured and needed to be transferred to Changchun immediately for treatment. ”
"Yaga!" Although I was prepared, I didn't expect that the casualties would be so large, and the number of casualties actually reached more than 7,000. His own division lost a third at once.
The commander of the Little Devil Division thought in his heart, this must be avenged, when has the 39th Division suffered such a big loss since its establishment.
Anyway, I need to break through the defensive positions of the 36th Army head-on, this time. Concentrate forces on attacking the positions of the 36th Army.
"Command the troops! Keep moving. ”
The commander of the Little Devil Division is ready to take revenge, and there are still 10,000 people in the 39th Division, and the commander of the Little Devil Division thinks that he still has the capital for revenge.
In addition, it won't be long before the follow-up divisions will arrive one after another, and the commander of the little devil division will not worry at all, he will definitely break through the defensive position of thousands of people in the 36th Group.
Many little devils began to march, and only a small number of little devils took care of the wounded in place, cleaned the battlefield, and buried the corpses.
*********
On the 251 heights a few kilometers north of Liulin Town, the soldiers almost waited impatiently, and the thousands of little devils on the opposite side did not attack, and further away, there seemed to be fierce gunfire sounds.
"Captain! What's going on? Why does it seem like there is a war ahead! "A captain company commander asked about his regiment commander, in the heart of this company commander, his position is the most cutting-edge position, how can there be a war ahead, who is the little devil fighting?
Hearing this, the colonel commander of the infantry regiment smiled slightly and said happily: "Comrades, you don't know yet, our mechanized infantry regiment and tank regiment have taken the lead in attacking, and now it may be one of the teams that is fighting with the little devils." ”
Seeing that their mechanized infantry regiment and tank regiment had already moved in advance, many soldiers were also envious, those soldiers had already fought with the little devils, when would they be able to enjoy themselves and hit the little devils hard.
"Captain! The little devils on the other side are too careful, why don't they dare to rush up, there are a lot of them! "It's still the captain and company commander, looking at the large number of little devils in the distance, who haven't rushed forward for so long, and I feel a little unhappy.
The colonel said happily: "Comrades, the little devil must have been frightened by us, and he must have been frightened by the prestige of our 36th Group Army. ”
"Captain! I promise to kill a pair of little devils when they come to two, and I promise that they will not come back. "There are many soldiers around him, and the morale is very high and full of confidence.
The colonel commander was also very happy when he heard the words of the soldiers, but in his heart, the colonel did not dare to relax at all, because the little devils went south to reinforce the team of nearly 200,000, and in addition, there may be at least 100,000 second devils.
With so many teams going south to reinforce Shenyang, their own positions will bear the brunt of the attack, and they will be the target of the little devils' key attacks, and they can't be careless at all.
Half an hour later, the gunfire in front of me gradually stopped.
"Commander, look, the little devil in front seems to be moving."
Hearing this, the regiment commander took the binoculars and looked ahead, only to see the little devils in front of him, as if the number had increased, and many of them seemed to be still preparing to charge.
A few kilometers away, many little devils had already rushed over, and the commander of the little devil's division also came over in an armored command vehicle with a gloomy face.
At this time, the commander of the Little Devil Division and other senior officers of the Little Devil Division had already gotten out of the car, holding binoculars one after another, and were observing the soldiers' position from a distance.
Ahead, huge positions, densely packed with trenches and fortifications, cut off the roads and railways heading south, and if the little devils want to continue south, they must first break through this position.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, the fortifications of the 36th Army on the opposite side, all civil fortifications, we can first bombard them with mountain artillery, and then concentrate a large number of infantry to charge, so that we can break through the defensive positions of the 36th Army on the opposite side in one fell swoop.
The 39th Division of the Little Devil has a mountain artillery wing, a total of 12 75mm mountain guns, and for such a tough battle, these mountain guns can be used, so a little devil Dazuo suggested using mountain artillery bombardment, and then a large force charged.
However, the commander of the Little Devil Division was frightened, and the commander of the Little Devil Division knew that the 36th Group Army had a large number of heavy artillery groups, and in case this defending unit also had heavy artillery groups, then more than a dozen of his own small mountain artillery pieces would be knocked out by the heavy artillery groups of the 36th Group Army as soon as they opened fire.
So, the commander of the little devil division hurriedly said: "Tanaka-kun, if the 36th Group Army deploys a heavy artillery group here, our mountain artillery wing will be in danger. ”
"Hey! Your Excellency, the commander of the division, was wise, and I did not think it through. ”
This little devil Dazuo, immediately, stood upright, bent down and saluted, with a modest face.
The chief of staff of the little devil immediately reminded the commander of the little devil division: "Your Excellency the division commander, our heavy artillery brigade is already on the way to arrive, as long as our heavy artillery brigade arrives, we can carry out a fierce artillery bombardment of the defensive positions of the 36th Army on the opposite side. ”
This time, the reinforcements of the little devils from Changchun to the south not only had a large number of field divisions, but also a heavy artillery brigade, equipped with all 155 mm heavy guns.
The heavy artillery brigade is one of the strategic forces of the little devils, and the entire Kwantung Army is not equipped with several heavy artillery brigades, and the little devils have great hopes for the heavy artillery brigades, and in the hearts of the little devils, the heavy artillery brigades are not only a strategic force, but also a deterrent force.
Even if the troops of the 36th Army on the opposite side were equipped with heavy artillery groups, as long as their own heavy artillery brigades arrived, everything would not be a problem.
Sure enough, the head of the little devil division nodded and said, "Yo Xi!" We will not use the mountain artillery wing this time, we will launch a large-scale attack first, and in case we cannot break through the defensive line of the 36th Army on the opposite side, we will wait for the arrival of the heavy artillery brigade. ”
The little devils are going south to reinforce, and the time is also very urgent, and the 39th Division of the little devils cannot blindly wait for the arrival of the heavy artillery brigade, and if they can launch an attack on their own, they still need to attack.
This time, the 39th Division of the Little Devils not only wanted to attack, but also attacked on a large scale, concentrating thousands of Little Devils, and for the sake of insurance, the commander of the Little Devil Division gathered all the only dozen or so armored vehicles in the whole division, and the Little Devils planned to use these armored vehicles to lead their infantry to charge.
The little devils were urgently arranged, a large number of little devils were ready, and more than a dozen armored vehicles also drove to the front, separated from the position of the 36th Group Army, more than 1,000 meters, and the two armies looked at each other from a distance.
****************
Thirty-sixth Army 251 heights.
The huge defensive position of the fighters, the soldiers have been prepared, just waiting for the attack of the little devils, all the bullets on the fighters are full of bullets, and some fighters will also take out a few of their grenades, unscrew the cover, and put them in a place where they can reach out to them.
Many commanders and comrades were lying on the edge of the trenches, holding binoculars, carefully watching the little devil's every move.
"Comrades, the little devils are coming, everyone is ready to fight!!"
Many commanders, seeing that the little devils were starting to attack, immediately shouted.
