Apparently, there were quite a few machine guns in the distance firing in this direction.

"Yaga! Retreat quickly!! ”

When the little devil Dazuo saw that the people around him were constantly killed, he immediately shouted in horror, immediately turned his horse's head, and hurriedly prepared to retreat into the distance, out of the effective range of the Chinese army's machine guns.

Just ran a few dozen meters away, suddenly, the little devil Dazuo felt a huge pain in his back, and a few machine gun bullets hit the little devil Dazuo, and soon, the little devil Dazuo fell headlong.

In the end, the entire Japanese cavalry wing, only more than 100 people managed to escape, and the highest rank of the remaining little devil officer was only a little devil Shaozuo, who looked at more than 100 remnants of the soldiers, disheartened and in a trance.

*******

On one of the main roads leading to Lashio, a large group of imps is marching, which is also one of the Japanese units reinforcing Lashio.

Twenty or thirty large trucks, full of little devils, went north along the road, and behind the convoy, there were also a large group of little devils to follow, and the number of little devils was at least one wing.

Not far ahead, just a few kilometers ahead, a large number of soldiers were already waiting solemnly, the soldiers were two infantry regiments, and a large number of fortifications were built to cut off the road.

"Captain! Reinforcements from the little devils are up! ”

"Ready to fight!!"

A large number of fighters were ready for battle, and at this time, another soldier trotted all the way over and said loudly: "Commander! A lot of little devils who escaped from Lashio City are fleeing along this road. ”

Seemingly. The little devils are ready to abandon the city and flee south, and their positions may be attacked from the back, and the next battle should be a fierce battle.

As several major groups of the Chinese army approached Lashio and almost formed an encirclement of Lashio, the Supreme Command of the Japanese Army in Southeast Asia had issued an order ordering the Japanese army to abandon Lashio and break through to the south and withdraw to the southern city of Mandalay.

The two divisions that went north to reinforce the Japanese army in Lashio broke through and retreated south, and at this time, the Japanese army in Lashio was evacuating from the city in batches to retreat south.

The 28th Army would bear the brunt of the attack, and the 28th Army would defend the area south of Lashio. More than 50,000 troops of the 28th Army. It was necessary to control the defensive line of more than 10 kilometers in the south of Lashio City, face the tens of thousands of little devils who withdrew from the city of Lashio, and block the two Japanese field divisions that went north to reinforce them.

The task of the 28th Army was heavy, although this was one of the main roads. But. Two infantry regiments were deployed. It's already the limit of the 28th group.

"Captain! There were many Japanese troops, at least one field infantry wing. ”

A wing came in one breath, it seems. There were many more Japanese units behind, and this wing was certainly only one of its vanguards.

Soon, the Japanese army came up, and the two infantry regiments defending this area were the first regiment and the second regiment of the 3rd Infantry Division of the 28th Army, and this area was one of the defense areas of the 3rd Infantry Division.

Japanese reinforcements came up on a large scale, and the two regiments reported the situation to their division headquarters while ordering the soldiers to block the Japanese army.

Two infantry regiments, the first infantry regiment defended on several hills on the left side of the road, and the second infantry regiment defended on the right hill.

Soon, the battle began.

Obviously, the Japanese army received the order to move north, and as soon as the battle began, the little devils launched a large-scale attack, and the fierce fighting between the two sides reached almost an hour, and the little devils suffered thousands of casualties before slowly retreating.

However, the little devils did not give up, and it seems that the little devils are ready to organize a larger attack.

"Captain! You see, a lot of tanks are ready to come up. ”

After the failure of the little devil's first attack, the follow-up reinforcements of the little devils also caught up, and there were quite a few little devils who came up behind, and they were also equipped with more than a dozen tanks and a number of armored vehicles, obviously, next, the little devils were ready to use the guidance of these combat vehicles to attack the fighters.

Seeing the little devil's tank ready to come up, the commander of the regiment was a little worried, just now the soldiers consumed a lot of ammunition, and now the soldiers are still hurrying to press bullets on their magazines, in addition, the commander of the first regiment used to be an old national army, participated in the Battle of Wuhan, and had a shadow in the heart of the little devil's tank.

Back then, in the Battle of Wuhan, in the face of the little devil's tank, usually after paying a lot of casualties, the death squad was organized, and the explosive package was used to get a little devil's tank with difficulty.

This time, I don't know if my bazooka can destroy these tanks, the 28th Army is also the first time to fight with the little devil after the reorganization and reequipment, the first regiment commander has no bottom in his heart, although he knows that the bazooka is powerful, but he is still a little worried.

However, this time there is no need to use a bazooka.

The headquarters of the 28th Army knew that the 1st and 2nd Infantry Regiments of the 3rd Infantry Division were blocking a large number of Japanese troops, and decisively ordered the tank regiment and mechanized infantry regiment of the 3rd Infantry Division to attack, and the tank regiment and the mechanized infantry regiment together to go south to defeat the reinforcements of the little devils going north.

At this time, a large number of little devils, led by more than a dozen little devil chariots, launched a large-scale re-attack.

Looking at the large number of little devils in the distance, the number of them was more than their own infantry regiment, and the two regiment commanders were secretly worried, and then there was another fierce battle.

"Captain! Our reinforcements will be coming in no time. ”

A communications soldier ran over happily, holding a telegram, and shouted loudly.

"Good! The division commander made a big deal this time, sending all the tank regiments and mechanized infantry regiments. ”

The fighters know that the tank regiment and the mechanized infantry regiment are the treasure bumps of the division commander, and it is no wonder that the 28th Army was previously a national army unit, when did it have so many tanks and armored vehicles, an infantry division, equipped with a tank regiment, a mechanized infantry regiment, it was unthinkable before.

This time, the 3rd Infantry Division defended this area, and the commander of the 3rd Division sent all his 6 infantry regiments to enter the designated positions to block the little devils, but the tank regiment and the mechanized infantry regiment with the strongest combat effectiveness were placed in the reserve position.

The defense area of the 3rd Infantry Division is less than 10 kilometers away from the city of Lashio, and the terrain in this area is relatively flat, with only a few small hills, and most of the places are either gentle slopes or plains, which are very suitable for the deployment of mechanized troops.

It didn't take long for the charge of the little devils to begin, and the little devils had just entered the range of the fighters, and the tank regiment and the mechanized infantry regiment came over.

Whether it is a Type 39 tank, a Type 39 armored personnel carrier, a wheeled combat vehicle or an off-road vehicle, they all have outstanding off-road ability, and they are like walking on the ground in this area.

A large number of chariots did not follow the road, but all over the mountains, so that the mighty came over, magnificent, very spectacular.

"Haha! Our tank units are coming. ”

Many commanders, seeing so many chariots coming, suddenly, laughed happily, just now, everyone saw the large-scale attack of the little devils, everyone was still faintly worried, now it's good, everyone was immediately relieved.

The little devils who charged were still full of confidence, thinking that they would definitely be able to break through the positions of the Chinese army on the opposite side with the guidance of the chariots, but the situation took a turn for the worse, and so many chariots suddenly appeared.

"Yaga! Armored clusters of the Chinese army! ”

Seeing such a right chariot, many little devil officers shouted in horror, the Chinese chariot is powerful, the little devils have long been taught, this time, such a chariot suddenly appeared, the little devils are not scared to death.

The little devil infantry who were charging behind their tanks, seeing a large number of chariots in the distance, were also a little pale with fright, and stopped charging without waiting for the order from above, and some of the little devils were even ready to give up the charge and prepare to retreat.

The tank units of the 3rd Infantry Division came quickly, and in just a few minutes, they exchanged fire with the troops charging the little devils, and many tanks began to fire at the teams of the little devils, armored vehicles, wheeled infantry fighting vehicles, and 30-mm machine guns on off-road vehicles also opened fire.

The dozen or so combat vehicles of the little devils bore the brunt of the attack, and they were quickly destroyed by the Type 39 tanks, and even the infantry of the little devils suffered a lot of casualties.

The 1st Infantry Regiment, the 2nd Infantry Regiment, and a large number of fighters, under the leadership of their own regimental commanders, rushed down their positions, followed behind these chariots, and launched a counter-charge against the little devils.

Suddenly, the little devil was defeated, with heavy casualties, and the soldiers pursued the little devil for three or four kilometers, annihilating thousands of enemies, and finally, in order to hold on to their positions, the soldiers returned to their positions unsatisfied.

As soon as the soldiers returned to their positions, a large number of little devils who fled from the Lashio rout also arrived here, which is less than 10 kilometers away from the city of Lashio, and it will not take long for the little devils to flee here.

Soon, the soldiers exchanged fire with these fleeing little devils, these fleeing little devils had low combat effectiveness, almost no will to fight, and they were crushed at the first touch, this group of little devils was at least three or four thousand, and more than 1,000 people were killed by the soldiers, and all the rest were captured.

The 1st, 2nd, 13th, and 15th Chinese armies, a total of four major troops, entered the city before noon and engaged in street battles with the little devils.

However, the little devils had already received an order to abandon Lashio, and the little devils fought and retreated, and the soldiers took control of the entire Lashio in the afternoon, and the remnants of the 50,000 or 60,000 little devils who retreated from Lashio were also retreating southward.

The 28th Army tightened its pockets to the south, and even if two or 60,000 divisions of these 50,000 or 60,000 little devils responded, they could not break through the defense line of the 28th Army.

In the evening, the rest of the large group armies rushed over one after another, and these 50,000 or 60,000 little devils did not resist for long in the face of the well-equipped and numerous Chinese troops, and after being annihilated more than 20,000 people, the remaining 30,000 people were taken prisoner one after another.

The two Japanese divisions that went north to reinforce and respond were also annihilated a lot, and the little devil saw that his Lashio defenders were almost completely wiped out, so they also stopped going north to reinforce and respond, and retreated south in embarrassment.
