Chapter 108 The Machidian Victory

In the direction of Yangcheng, the Japanese [-]st Division, [-]th Division, and the First Division of the [-]th Cavalry Brigade were blocked by the Fourth Battalion of our [-]nd Regiment, Lande Kai, in the Lujiao Ridge and Wangchuan Village areas.

The Japanese could not conquer the enemy for a long time, so the [-]st Division and the [-]th Cavalry Brigade retreated to Yang County to rest and recuperate. The [-]th Division first went to Jincheng and then to Gaoping to rest and recuperate, intending to move west from Gaoping and liberate the Three Gorges from the northwest. The siege of the Thirteenth Division.

Just when the Battle of Wuqin was fierce, both divisions were resting and recuperating, and they did not seize the opportunity of using the independent brigade artillery regiment for the Battle of Wuqin, which lacked long-range artillery fire.

Seeing that our army had stopped attacking, the [-]rd Division secretly rejoiced that two thousand less locust troops could be killed today.

The once arrogant Huashui County No. [-] has become a monk and clockwork. He no longer has the ambition to annihilate the independent brigade, and he has no idea of ​​taking this opportunity to break out of the encirclement.

Or maybe it thought that the hole-drilling tactic worked, and our army was worried about casualties, so it devised a plan: suspend the attack, induce itself to break out, and look for opportunities to annihilate itself.

If the Japanese had unified command and all departments cooperated tacitly, it would indeed be possible for the Japanese [-]rd Division to escape.

However, on the one hand, all the Japanese troops were affected by electromagnetic interference, which affected communications; on the other hand, Shao Dijun was a little distracted. He had no confidence in facing the Independent Brigade and the [-]th Brigade, and was focused on finding a way out for himself. . Dongtou Shouzao didn't know much about the situation in Jin Province, so he could only give orders based on guesswork.

Under such a strange combination of circumstances, the Japanese missed their final opportunity to break out.

And our army did not fight easily.

In the liberated areas, with the two-sided battle, logistical pressure suddenly increased.

The masses had to be mobilized to help transport supplies.

Although spring planting has already begun in late March, ordinary people still found time to form an army of small carts to help transport supplies.

If the small cart cannot push the 370mm rockets, then ordinary artillery shells should be transported and transported to the front line via small roads under the guidance of the logistics troops.

The main roads will also be reserved for mechanized transport teams.

At this time, if the Japanese had satellites, they would think that our army had assembled hundreds of thousands of troops to annihilate the Western Corps and the [-]rd Division.

Scared can scare the devil to death!

The endless flow of people is like a long dragon of movement and veins, with blood constantly flowing in it, day and night.

The [-]st Division and the [-]th Division originally returned to Yangxian and Gaoping. They no longer have confidence. They believe that facing the powerful firepower of our army, going to the rescue is equivalent to risking death.

But Shao Dijun still counted on them to save his life, and Dongtou Shouzao still counted on them to bring a perfect end to the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain.

So, at the request of Dongtou Shouzao and under the strict orders of Shao Dijun, the [-]th Division and the [-]st Division came back!

The [-]st Division and the First Division of the [-]th Cavalry Brigade changed directions and tried to fish out the [-]rd Division from the direction of Machidian;

The [-]th Division started from Gaoping, went west through Yuxi and Hudi, and attacked Xiaodonggou.

Dingdian is located between Jincheng and Houma. The village is adjacent to mountains and ridges in the north and south, and the Jinhou Highway passes through the village.

From the end of June to the beginning of July 1938, the [-]th Brigade of the [-]th Division and the [-]st and [-]nd Battalions of the [-]nd Regiment of the [-]th Brigade blocked the Japanese Kudo Regiment here.

At that time, our army was poorly equipped and lacked ammunition. But morale was high and many fighting heroes emerged. We repelled seven or eight Japanese attacks. During this period, fierce hand-to-hand fighting broke out.

After the bloody battle of our soldiers, we finally won another great victory since Pingxingguan.

Killed [-] to more than [-] enemies.

Because the Japanese reinforcements arrived, our army was surrounded by enemies on three sides, so we took the initiative to withdraw from the battle. The specific number of enemy annihilations cannot be confirmed.

However, it is estimated from the captured materials that the number of enemies annihilated should be more than a thousand.

Later, the Machidian Battle Memorial Park was built on Ginjiang Mountain south of Machidian.

Today, the Second Synthetic Regiment will fight a different Machidian battle here again.

In this blockade, the main force was the second battalion of the second regiment, the support battalion and a sniper team.

The number of our troops is much smaller than that of the past; the number of enemies is much larger.

But our army is more confident than it was back then.

All this confidence comes from updated equipment and enhanced training.

Even if today's soldiers pick up the weapons of the past, their fighting skills will be [-]% better than those of the past.

The last battle was called the Machidian Battle, but the battlefield was not limited to the Machidian, but was on a front about 10 kilometers long.

This time, the enemy troops concentrated their forces at one point, and most of them came towards Fengwangzhuang, Beizhuang and Machidian.

The second battalion used its second company to block the front attack on the south side of Dingdian Village, its third company at Beizhuang, and its fourth company at Fengwangzhuang;

The first company penetrated towards Baigou; the fifth company penetrated towards Houzhuang, attacking both wings of the Japanese.

The Japanese knew that a strong attack was not an option, and they would definitely not be able to break through our blocking position.

Therefore, we want to attract the firepower of our army from the front, mobilize the main force of our army to the front, and then penetrate behind our army from the two wings.

In this way, not long after the war started, the first company and the fifth company faced the Japanese head-on.

Of course, the enemy's movements have been detected by our drones and have been reported to the [-]st and [-]th companies.

But the Japanese knew nothing about our army's arrangements.

When they met on the move, the enemy's protective power, assault power, and morale were all seriously lacking, and only the number of troops held an advantage.

Although it didn't collapse at the first touch, the more I fought, the less I wanted to fight, and I kind of wanted to "turn in".

The three companies of our army that blocked the frontal attack also changed from passive to active. The infantry fighting vehicles took the lead and made a central breakthrough.

The Japanese on the front didn't want to actually fight our troops. They wanted to stay far away and change positions after firing two mortars. This can attract our troops without causing heavy casualties.

After only twenty minutes of fighting, I suddenly saw smoke and dust covering the sun from the north, and a stream of iron billowing from the north.

The infantry fighting vehicle's chain-type rapid-fire cannon continued to shoot out fire.

There were not many Japs in the front, but when our army suddenly took the initiative to attack, we were immediately in a panic. He was beaten so hard that he ran away with his head in his arms.

Seeing this, the Japanese didn't even bother to fire their recoilless rifles. They dropped "heavy weapons" such as mortars and recoilless rifles and fled in panic.

But in local battles, human legs cannot outrun a chariot unless you climb a mountain!

Although there is a small river here, the water is very shallow. In winter, there is almost no water.

The infantry tanks crossed the river as if they were walking on flat ground, and soon caught up with the Japanese and fired with machine guns.

Harvesting Japanese lives one after another.

Later, in order to save ammunition, the soldiers directly drove infantry tanks into the fleeing Japanese.

Later, the Japanese behind used rocket launchers, recoilless rifles, rapid-fire guns, and cannons to attack the fleeing Japanese and the tanks our army was chasing indiscriminately.

Only then did our second, third, and fourth companies stop pursuing. The third company retreated along the same route. The fourth company moved eastward, and the second company moved westward to attack the Japanese troops in two directions.

Fight back both groups of Japs.

Our army also ran out of ammunition and temporarily withdrew its blocking position.

This battle lasted about 2 hours. Our army killed more than [-] Japanese and injured more than [-] at the cost of [-] casualties, [-] injuries, and the loss of one infantry tank.

The Japanese blew up more than two hundred of their own heads.

Our army achieved another great victory at Machidian.
