Chapter 631: The Sorrow of Zhongtiao Mountain (4) The Power of the Bazooka
Chief of Staff Hong looked into the distance in the direction of the northern line of the Zhongtiao Mountains.
There are already flashes of fire over there. This should be Commander Fan mobilizing the troops.
But for some unknown reason, the Japanese army did not launch an attack on the Sichuan Army on the northern line from the front of the position.
As the Type 94 tank got closer, Chief of Staff Hong's palms began to sweat.
Alas, with only one thousand soldiers to stop more than ten thousand Japanese devils, why did I agree to the instigation of Captain Zhao just now?
Perhaps Captain Zhao heard his thoughts and, as if afraid that he would regret it, he launched an attack directly.
So the Dayu Valley sniper battle started almost in an instant.
Battalion Commander Zhao on the opposite side and Company Commander Li on their side simply ignored the Japanese tanks.
Instead, they launched an attack on the Japanese infantry behind the tanks.
Suddenly, a loud explosion occurred in Dayu Valley.
I don’t know how many mines the guerrilla division has placed in Dayu Valley just now.
They actually blew up a nearly 500-meter-long no-man's land behind the Japanese tanks.
At this time, the Japanese soldiers in front were very crazy, and they were not as worried as the casualties behind them.
They just kept following the Type 94 tank and rushed towards the gentle slope.
Due to the angle problem, the Japanese tanks at this time were unable to launch attacks on both sides of Dayu Valley.
Just as they reached the front of the gentle slope, they saw the Japanese soldiers looking west and were about to launch an attack.
Seeing this scene, Chief of Staff Hong’s head almost exploded.
If the Japanese tanks were allowed to rush up, the 500 or so people on our side would not be able to stop them at all.
"Where are the suicide squads? Quickly bundle up the grenades."
I saw more than twenty Sichuan Army soldiers, with the help of their companions, immediately hung a dozen grenades on their bodies.
Captain Li on the other side didn't bother to explain and gave the order directly.
"Cannon number one to number six, take out the Japanese tanks for me."
As Captain Li gave the order to attack, six soldiers from the guerrilla division half-crouched down.
They carried the "iron pipe" on their shoulders and aimed it slightly.
They aimed at the Japanese tanks below and launched an attack.
Six rockets with tail flames flew directly towards the Japanese tanks.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Although it was the first time for everyone to fight against tanks, it might be because the distance was close.
The guerrilla division's six RPG-7 rocket launchers were extremely accurate.
The Japanese tanks that were so majestic just now have now turned into six real iron lumps.
Chief of Staff Hong was almost in tears. This artillery marine division in Gannan is really capable.
They did not deceive themselves. These inconspicuous "iron pipes" were indeed the magic weapons for attacking the Japanese tanks.
To be honest, when he arranged a platoon of suicide squads to blow up the Japanese tanks, he didn't even dare to think about blowing up all six tanks.
Even if we have to sacrifice a platoon of soldiers, it will be enough as long as we can blow up the two tanks in front.
If they could prevent the Japanese tanks behind them from rushing up the hill, their mission would be accomplished.
I didn't expect that now no one would have to be sacrificed, six shells and six tanks, the cost-effectiveness is really high!
The Sichuan troops who were still hanging grenades murmured on the sidelines: "Chief of Staff Hong, what should we do with these grenades hanging on our bodies?"
Captain Li ran over and shouted, "What are you thinking? Throw the grenades into the valley!"
The Sichuan Army soldiers in this death-defying platoon did not even need to show their heads to aim and shoot.
He just pulled the string of the grenade and threw it hard downwards.
Following the tanks were only a squadron of Japanese soldiers.
During the explosion of their own tanks, nearly a squad of Japanese soldiers were hit by the scattered shrapnel.
Although their tanks were destroyed, the remaining Japanese soldiers neither attacked nor retreated.
They leaned against the rocks and fired at the top of the slope one shot after another.
Even if hundreds of grenades were thrown at them, they would not move.
The more than 10,000 Japanese devils behind were even stranger. They were all behaving out of character.
Not only did he not come quickly to rescue the trapped Japanese squadron.
On the contrary, after all the tanks were blown up, the Japanese retreated like a tide.
Without the support of the follow-up troops, the Japanese squadron was wiped out in less than twenty minutes.
At this time, a vanguard regiment of the Artillery Marine Division had been ordered to come to support.
Captain Xiong: "Old Zhao, what's going on? Where are all the Japanese? Why is it so quiet here?"
At this time, Chief of Staff Hong had arranged the defense and he also came to meet with Captain Xiong.
Because the Japanese soldiers ran too fast just now, we didn’t have time to take away their equipment.
Battalion Commander Zhao was very generous and donated all the equipment to the Sichuan Army.
Although they usually have support from the guerrilla division, they have no shortage of guns and ammunition.
But the Japanese left behind more than 500 Type 38 rifles.
Because the "Broadsword" mines used just now caused great damage to the Japanese, their equipment was not damaged.
Especially on them, the 120 bullets were not fired at all, and all of them were wasted.
There were also the Japanese's grenade launchers and small cannons, as well as more than a dozen usable light and heavy machine guns. Chief of Staff Hong exclaimed that he had made a fortune.
Therefore, Chief of Staff Hong said excitedly, "The Japanese army left behind six tanks and nearly a thousand dead devils, and they have retreated."
Captain Zhao: "This group of devils has a brigade, but they ran away after just one contact. It's really weird."
Captain Xiong said: "These little devils are really troublesome.
You may not know, but I was sent here first because I am close.
The order I received was to hold on for an hour at all costs and wait for reinforcements to arrive.
The Third Guerrilla Division behind us has all arrived and will be there in another hour.
The Fourth Guerrilla Division is the second echelon and will arrive by tomorrow morning at the latest.
You're telling me now that all the Japs have run away? No, I have to report this to the division headquarters immediately."
Captain Xiong only observed the situation in a small area here.
But the actual situation was that more than 80,000 Japanese troops along the entire Zhongtiao Mountain line had launched an attack on the 200,000 national troops.
The Japanese's attack this time was quite different from that of Blue Star, which was in the same space and time as Song Wenwan.
That time, it was 200,000 national troops against 80,000 Japanese troops, and this time it was 300,000 national troops against 110,000 Japanese troops.
Although the Japanese army had a lot more people, they only attacked the southern line of Zhongtiao Mountain because of the devils.
This also made the density and thickness of the National Army's defense much stronger than that of Blue Star.
The summer of 1941 in Shanxi was undoubtedly a lively summer.
The first place to fall into chaos was not the secondary capital or the Second War Zone, but the headquarters of the Shanxi First Army.
That evening, Yoshio Shinozuka personally hosted a banquet at Dingxianglou for several Japanese division commanders who had returned to Taiyuan.
He returned to his headquarters residence and had just laid down to rest when he was awakened by his personal staff.
"Commander Shinozuka, please wake up! Something big has happened in the direction of Zhongtiao Mountain."
Yoshio Shinozuka was completely confused as he listened to the staff officer's report.
"What? Was our Zhongtiaoshan defense line attacked by the Chinese army?"
Yoshio Shinozuka still felt a little guilty about this matter.
You have to know that the two divisions of Hayata Chixian were transferred back because of his own mischief.
