The Republic of China: In order to seize the Cantonese department, the principal directly called Nia

The area north of Ba County.

The 2nd Corps, the most elite of the 4th Infantry Division of the Qiong Army, is storming the position of the devils.

The offensive tactics of the Qiong army were ordinary.

That is, the artillery bombs, and then the infantry rushes.

It was no different from the infantry attack of the Japanese army.

It was the artillery fire of the Qiong army that was more intense.

Before the attack, the Qiong army will implement a round of artillery cover.

Then launch a tentative attack.

While probing the attack, the artillery detachment would push 75-mm mountain guns directly to the forward positions.

As a direct-aim artillery, it beckons all kinds of firepower points of devils.

For the trenches and improvised civil fortifications of the devils.

Then it was handed over to 82-mm and 120-mm mortars to deal with.

Especially 120-mm mortars.

The damage is outstanding!

Because when the devil infantry was building fortifications, the anti-artillery standard was based on 75 mm caliber guns.

And they can't be blamed for that.

Their main artillery is of this caliber.

And in this era, most of the troops of the Dragon Kingdom army can be equipped with 75 mm caliber barreled artillery, which is also the absolute main force.

Theoretically, it is sufficient according to this criterion......

It's just that there is Chen Xu as a traveler in this time and space.

Because of Chen Xu, he joined this army again.

Considering the terrain and road level of the Dragon Country.

Chen Xu also temporarily used the 75mm mountain artillery as the artillery of the main division.

But at the regimental level, the 120-mm mortar is a standard regimental artillery.

This directly gave the Qiong Army Infantry Regiment an artillery firepower far superior to that of the Devil Infantry Wing......

With the power of a 120mm mortar.

The blockade position of the 77th Wing of the 20th Division of the Devil was directly torn apart by the Qiong Army who took the initiative to attack.

After tearing through the devil's defense.

The Qiong army quickly advanced in depth.

Forcefully tore apart the devil's defensive deployment.

After tearing apart the defensive positions of the 77th Infantry Wing of the Devils, the 2nd Infantry Division quickly threw in the 5th Infantry Regiment.

Let the 5th Infantry Regiment advance in depth along the breakthrough and completely disrupt the deployment of the 20th Division of the Devils......

Meanwhile.

It is in the east of Ba County.

The 2nd Infantry Division, the weakest of the 12th Infantry Divisions of the Qiong Army.

A tactical counterattack was also launched.

The target of the 12th Infantry Division was the Sakai Hoji Brigade, which attempted to force its way across the Yakniu River to attack.

The Qiong army chose to cross the river with the main force of the Sakai Hoji Brigade before launching an attack.

At the beginning of the offensive, the "Hound ~ Dog" dive bomber was directly used to destroy the pontoon bridge that it assumed was on the Yakniu River.

Directly let Sakai Hoji's independent mix into the main force of the 1st Brigade, and lose the way back to retreat!

For Sakai Hoji, it's even more sadding.

The artillery preparation of the dragon army happened to hit his communications squadron.

Not only were the communications squadrons killed and wounded, but the radio station was also destroyed.

Let Sakai Hoji directly lose contact with the command of the 1st Army!

Sakai Hoji can only try to contact allies through low-level radio stations and ask them to help ask for help......

When Seiji Kazuki received a telegram from Sakai Hoji asking for help.

It was already late in the day.

Nearly five hours have passed since the time of the attack mentioned by Sakai Hoji in the telegram!

Look at the latest battlefield situation on the sand table.

Lieutenant General Kiyoji Kazuki suddenly realized.

The idea of General Shouichi Terauchi may be in vain!

Besiege the city for reinforcements, the premise is to encircle the target.

But at this moment, the Qiong Army in the Baxian area is obviously unable to surround it by relying on the 20th Division!

Not only can't it be contained, but there is even a risk of being eaten by the Qiong army!

This also made Kiyoji Kazuki completely confused.

How many people are there in the Qiong army in the Baxian area?

But at the moment.

Kazuki Kiyoji didn't care about it, and slowly pondered this problem.

He hurriedly ordered the 6th Division and the 14th Regiment to mobilize troops to launch an attack on the Baxian area overnight.

The 1st Army, which he commanded, consisted of three divisions and one independent mixed brigade.

These forces have all been thrown into battle. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

He doesn't even have a reserve in his hands!

There were no reserves to reinforce the 20th Division and the Sakai Brigade.

Then you can only rely on the 6th Division and the 14th Regiment......

The two divisions that attacked overnight were fiercely blocked.

The Qiong army actually built a number of pillboxes on the defense line south of Baxian. []

These bunkers are made of reinforced concrete, which is unusually strong.

The Japanese 75-mm field artillery and mountain artillery hit it, and they could only blow off a layer of skin, which was like tickling.

The Qiong army placed several machine guns in each pillbox.

Directly covered the area around the pillbox for hundreds of meters, making it difficult for the devil infantry to break through.

It is in the southwest of Ba County.

An infantry company leaned against three pillboxes on its back, and actually blocked the repeated attacks of the two infantry brigades of the devils.

Fight down all night.

The two devil brigades that broke through from here left behind more than 600 corpses.

And the three bunkers are all standing proudly, and they are still strong.

Angry, the division commander Gu Shoufu split two devil squadron leaders in a row to punish them for their ineffective fighting......

When it's getting dark.

Wang Taiyu, commander of the 2nd Army of the Qiong Army, finally received good news.

The 12th Infantry Division fought fiercely all night.

Finally, the Sakai Brigade of the Japanese army that crossed the river was completely annihilated.

In fact, it is not a total annihilation.

Some of the devils rushed into the Yakniu River in the darkness of the night.

As for whether they swam to the other side, or simply drowned?

I don't know.

However, when the 12th Infantry Division was cleaning up the battlefield, it found the body of a devil major general.

Judging by the military ID card in the pocket of the corpse.

This major general is Sakai Hoji!

Eating the main force of the Sakai Brigade is equivalent to removing the threat from the eastern flank of Baxian.

Wang Taiyu immediately ordered the main force of the 12th Infantry Division to move south to strengthen the defensive line and make every effort to block the 14th Regiment of the devils.

However, two infantry battalions and two regiments of the 12th Infantry Division, which belonged to heavy mortar batteries, were transferred to the positions of the 18th Infantry Division.

At the same time, it was transferred to the 18th Infantry Division, as well as the artillery regiment attached to the army.

And the only tank battalion in the hands of Wang Taiyu!

According to the establishment of the Qiong Army Infantry Division formulated by Chen Xu.

Each infantry division will be accompanied by a tank battalion.

It's not that Chen Xu doesn't know the importance of the centralized use of tanks.

It is the road conditions of the Dragon Country, which really cannot support the mobilization of division-level tank troops.

Therefore, there was a tank battle on the battlefield of the Dragon Kingdom at this time (Zhao Wanghao)......

That's not fun at all!

Or honestly assign tanks to infantry to strengthen the offensive and defensive capabilities of infantry units!

It was conceived, but it was not implemented.

The main reason is that Chen Xu's ideal tank is still under development.

Existing tanks, after marshalling several armored brigades and the only armored division.

Several tank battalions were formed.

The 2nd Tank Battalion, which had previously arrived in Baxian County through Dongying Port, was one of them.

Originally, Wang Taiyu wanted the tank battalion to continue to hibernate.

After all, the 2nd Army of the Qiong Army is still relatively sufficient in ammunition at present, and the battlefield advantage is still relatively large.

The dispatch of tank battalions at this time is just the icing on the cake.

When the battle situation is difficult, it is easier to show up the tank battalion suddenly, and it will be easier to work wonders!

But the telegram sent by Chen Xu in his hand made Wang Taiyu dispatch the 2nd Tank Battalion in advance.

"'Focus on attacking the 6th Division of the Devils, and kill the commander of its division, Toshio Tani, as much as possible, !!."
