Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

It was also at this time that Li Xiangdong split up one of the main regiments he brought, and placed a main battalion on each city wall.As for the other garrison troops, a battalion was also arranged to garrison on the city wall.

Considering that the siege also required the consumption of weapons and ammunition, the Japanese chariot squadron arrived outside Huaibin City, and soon sent several traitors to lead the way for them.Standing under the city gate, intending to persuade the defenders in the city to surrender.

'Brothers of the Nationalist Army in the city, stop resisting.As long as you are willing to lay down your weapons and surrender, the imperial army is willing to give you a way to survive.At this time, you have to think more about yourself, don't cherish your own life! '

Hearing these traitors leading the way to persuade them to surrender, Li Xiangdong sneered and said: "Let the snipers kill all these traitors and little devils who appear within the range of the range. Those traitors who seek glory, death is not a pity!"

As the snipers took their positions one after another, those traitors who were escorted by the little devils and ran to the city to persuade them to surrender, soon heard the sound of gunfire from the city wall.With the sound of gunshots, these traitors who took refuge in the Japanese army were quickly shot dead under the city gate.

Seeing this scene, the garrison officers and soldiers on the city wall knew more or less.These few shots from the sniper might have cut off their way to surrender.Next, if the little devils are allowed to attack Huaibin City, I'm afraid they won't have much chance of survival.

Looking at the officers and soldiers of the supervisory regiment with stern expressions around them, the officers and soldiers of the garrison also knew that this was the unit sent by the superior to supervise the war.Those who have offended these supervisory groups, they also have no good fruit to eat.

Seemingly seeing the frustration of these officers and soldiers of the garrison brigade, the officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance regiment who assisted them in defending the city also said at the right time: "Do you also believe what the little devil said? If you really want to be a prisoner of the little devil, you will know what life is." Better to die!

In these years, are there still few people who surrendered to the little devil?Do you know where they are now?Either be dragged to the mine by the little devils to dig for them, or simply be used as a target by these little devils to practice bayonets.Do you want to die like that? "

After saying such words, some bold officers and soldiers of the garrison brigade said: "Sir, is the little devil really so poisonous?"

'how?You don't believe what we say, but you think you can believe what the little devils outside the city say? '

After giving these garrison brigade officers and soldiers a mocking look, these officers and soldiers also resolutely remained silent.At this time, the chariot squadron outside the city finally planned to launch an attack.

'Cheer up!The little devil is going to enter the city!Don't worry, we have made so many preparations, and the little devil has successfully entered the city, I'm afraid it will not be so easy.Hold on for a few days, and we'll be able to get out of here safely. '

As the officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance brigade in charge of supervision appeased, the officers and soldiers of these garrison brigades also knew.If they want to survive, they must persist here for at least three days.In fact, they only lasted one day in the end.

The reason is that when the Tenth Division of the Japanese Army began to attack Huaibin, the troops brought by He Zhengdao in advance were already preparing to encircle it! (To be continued.)

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

<> Attacking all the way from Fuyang to Huaibin City, the Tenth Division basically did not receive any strong resistance.In order to ensure the safety of Wuhan, most of the main forces of the Central Army are concentrated on the outskirts of Wuhan, including the Xinyang area on the flank.

The [-]th Division, which suffered a loss at the hands of Li Zongren before, also hopes to find their way back this time, avenging the shame of being almost wiped out in the Xuzhou battle.And this is what Shinozuka Yoshio needs to strive for as the head of the division after taking office.

Only when he washes away the humiliation of his previous failure on the Xuzhou battlefield, will he, the new division commander, be recognized by the division and the Japanese Army Headquarters.If you can't do this, I'm afraid others will doubt the level of the division head Yoshio Shinozuka.

After receiving the telegram from the Chariot Squadron, Shinozuka Yoshio said with a gloomy expression: "Baga, it seems that these troops defending the city are determined to defend to the death. If you dare to challenge our majesty, we must let them suffer the consequences." .

Order the Tenth Infantry Regiment to cooperate with the chariot squadron to carry out the siege, and send the artillery units of the divisions together.Tell them I'm going into town for dinner tonight.After breaking the city, cancel all bans! "

'Hi!General, is this okay? '

The herald seemed to know what it meant to lift all bans.If you really want to do this, I'm afraid that none of the defenders in Huai City will be alive.But he also knew that this was also the highest reward for the officers and soldiers of the division.

Facing the inquiry from the herald, Shinozuka Yoshio sneered and said, "It's okay! This time our army has just arrived on the battlefield, and we still need to break through a few counties. If we don't act with deterrence, I'm afraid it will also delay our marching speed." .

Properly give these Chinese resistance forces some deterrence, and they will know the consequences of resisting us.In this way, we may be able to complete the task assigned by the commander in the shortest possible time and block the resistance army living in the Guyang area. "

As the head of the division, Yoshio Shinozuka didn't know that the consequences of lifting the ban would drive the officers and soldiers of the division completely crazy.But he also knew that the troops had been fighting for so long, and they really needed to find something to vent their anger on.

Since the garrison troops in Huaibin City ignored their persuasion to surrender, they must be prepared to be slaughtered.Compared with what No.13 and the [-]th Division, who were incorporated into the Second Army this time, did in Nanjing, Yoshio Shinozuka felt that this was nothing.

After all, how many people are there in a small Huaibin City?No matter how you kill them, I'm afraid there will only be tens of thousands of people.Moreover, according to what they learned, there are not many people in Huaibin City today, and most of them are troops resisting them.

Since it is a resistance force, what's the problem with him annihilating it?

As an advance infantry unit and an artillery unit of the Tenth Division of the Japanese Army rushed to the outside of Huaibin City, they began to prepare for the attack.The garrison troops staying in the city are also ready for battle.

If there is an air force reconnaissance over Huaibin City at this moment, they will find that Huaibin City today has become a huge blocking battlefield.Many streets were blocked, even the exit of the city gate was blocked by sandbags.

Although such an approach made many officers and soldiers of the garrison very opposed.Because the city gate is blocked, if they want to retreat at that time, where should they retreat from?

Li Xiangdong, who came to take over the defense, said calmly: "Our first task now is to contain the Japanese army for three days, and the second is to consider the retreat. If we don't block the city gate, what should we do if the little devil's tanks are activated?"

A faint rhetorical question stunned the officers of the garrison brigade.In the eyes of the officers of the garrison brigade, the little devil's tank and armored vehicle were undoubtedly steel monsters that they could not fight against.

But soon some officers said: "General Li, although our east and west walls are relatively high, the north and south walls are relatively short. If the little devils blow up the walls, won't their tanks be able to drive in as well?"

'Since the little devil's tanks can drive in, are we afraid that we won't be able to find a way to retreat?Even if they want to blow up the city walls in the north and south, wouldn't the blocking positions we established in the south and north of the city these two days come in handy? '

It was another rhetorical question, which made the officers of the garrison brigade suddenly realize that Li Xiangdong had already prepared for the worst. 【△网WwW.】It's no wonder that he placed his headquarters in an underground air defense fortification in Huaicheng.

During this period of time, some military officers inspecting the city's defense situation knew more or less that the entire Huai City had now become a huge blocking battlefield.If the little devil really enters the city and wants to take Huai City in a short time, I'm afraid it's impossible.

The most likely scenario is that Huai City will become a huge meat grinder battlefield.If the city is broken, the little devils pouring in from outside the city will also face the situation of street fighting.In this case, the casualties on both sides may be inevitable.

Seeing that the little devil who persuaded him to surrender in the morning was shot dead, the Japanese tanks that blocked Huaibin City did not attack.The officers and soldiers guarding the city were somewhat surprised.In their view, these tanks should launch an attack immediately!

Compared to the nervousness of these garrison officers and soldiers, the soldiers of the reconnaissance regiment who came to garrison said calmly: "Don't scare yourself! This kind of bean tank is not so scary, and they dare not attack without the cooperation of infantry.

If you feel so scared, you might as well take a good rest.If the little devil really wants to attack, he must find a few rounds of shelling.Under the cover of artillery fire and infantry, the tanks of these little devils dared to attack. "

For the soldiers of the reconnaissance regiment, they have experienced countless battles with little devils.Faced with this kind of tank and armored vehicle that the Central Army fears, they are no longer worried.What's more, they also brought the bazooka to me.

Just to avoid exposing the power of the rocket launcher, He Zhengdao also confessed to Li Xiangdong that he could use more artillery fire when dealing with Japanese tank armor.For example, bombs or anti-tank mines can actually deal with the little devil's thin-skinned tanks.

At noon, the defenders who had been tense all morning realized that the Japanese army had really not attacked.Even if their tanks shelled and attacked the city gate from time to time, they didn't get much benefit.

The reason is that when Li Xiangdong came over, he also brought dozens of mortars of different sizes.Facing the counterattack of these mortars, the little devils driving the tank also knew that they should not try to please them when encountering intensive shelling.

Although their tentative attack also made the defenders in the city nervous for several hours.But their two tanks were also on the ground.If you really want to talk about losses, the losses of the Japanese tank squadron are undoubtedly greater.

It is clear that the three tank squadrons assigned to the Tenth Division this time, every tank and armored vehicle is very precious.Faced with such an uneconomical deal, the leader of the Japanese tank squadron, even if he really wanted to take the lead, did not dare to take the risk.

Until the troops in the city began to eat one after another and continued to wait for the Japanese attack.The defenders, who had been observing the actions of the Japanese army outside the city, soon discovered the Japanese infantry appearing in the distance outside the city.

Regarding this situation, Li Xiangdong quickly said: "Order the garrison troops in the city to enter the underground fortifications and bunkers. They are not allowed to go out of the fortifications without hearing the whistle. It seems that the artillery of the little devil should have arrived.

Wait until we get down the city wall, hand it over to our troops to guard, cooperate with the main battalions defending the city, and transfer them to various blocking positions in the city.This time, what we have to do is rely on the city defense to slowly consume the little devil. "

Hearing this, the garrison brigade commander was a little surprised and said: "Mr. Li, let your defenders and our people rest, isn't it good?"

In Liu Nuosheng's view, shouldn't the elite be kept until the end?If he were Li Xiangdong, he would definitely send the garrison troops to defend the city and let them consume the little devil's offensive vigor.

But Li Xiangdong shook his head and said: "No, you don't have many veterans in the garrison brigade, and you also have very little actual combat experience. And you can't deploy too many defenders on the city wall. If you do this, you will only become a living target for little devils.

My troops have fought against the Japanese army several times, and they are also experienced in how to deal with the little devil's tanks and armored vehicles.It's just that I also hope that you can show fearless courage and command the troops to fight the little devils.

A recruit can never become a veteran without experience in actual combat.Although you and I are both commanders, why didn't we survive on the battlefield to this day?It's the first time in everything, as long as you are in a battle, you are not allowed to be afraid and retreat, understand? "

The reconnaissance team picked up the urgent and dangerous missions, leaving the relatively easy blocking and sneak attacks to the garrison.Such an approach moved the officers of the garrison brigade as well, knowing that they used to treat the heart of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

From the looks of it, the supervising major general sent by the war zone didn't want them to be cannon fodder to consume the little devil's strength!

'Don't worry, general, we will go to the battlefield to supervise the battle in person.Whoever dares to retreat without your order will be subject to military law.Although we are the garrison, we are also soldiers, not idiots! '

'good!Losing is not losing, as long as we work together, I believe that this time the little devil will not get any benefits.As long as I complete this blocking mission, I will then send a telegram to Chief Li to ask for credit from the government and Chairman Jiang! '
