Bright sword, I have a red police base car

Chapter 225 Defeating the Japanese Army on the Southern Front
"Class 203 and Class [-], keep moving forward!" The deputy company commander of the [-]rd Company once again issued an order to the two squads at the front.

Under the current circumstances, the little devil's guard squadron has lost all its effective strength, and the headquarters has also been eliminated by the platoon's artillery team. The main purpose of the Red Police troops' advance is to completely eliminate the remaining forces of the Japanese headquarters.

After all, the killing radius of a 60mm mortar cannot wipe out all the forces around the Japanese command headquarters. Naturally, the Red Alert soldiers cannot leave these defeated little Japanese alive.

As a result, 24 Red Police soldiers from the two infantry squadrons quickly stepped forward and wiped out the few remaining soldiers of the Devil Guard Squadron.

"The company deputy, the kidnappers have been cleared out, what's the next step?" the 203rd Company's first platoon commander said to the deputy company commander leading the team.

The deputy company commander thought for a while and said: "Advance covertly, and after arriving at the predetermined position, first conduct a reconnaissance on the location of the Japanese army's headquarters."

"Yes!"

Afterwards, the red police fighters of the two platoons quickly made a detour in the direction of the headquarters of the Japanese division and regiment, and carried out investigations on its location.

Through the intelligence provided by the telecommunications detection squad of the supporting support company, the soldiers of the Red Police Force also knew very well that the headquarters in front was a temporary division-level headquarters of the Japanese army. For this kind of headquarters, the Japanese army had very elaborate camouflage.

The entire Japanese division headquarters was built in a semi-underground manner, and there was a hill in front of it to hide the sight.

Due to the terrain, the previous artillery observers of the Red Police Force had never observed the specific location of the Japanese command headquarters, so they had not carried out precise strikes on the Japanese command headquarters.

But if you look at it from the perspective of the first and second platoons of the 203rd Company, which is making a roundabout way, the Japanese division headquarters is very obvious.

"Company Lieutenant, we found the Japanese headquarters. You see, there is a line in the semi-underground building in front, which is connected to the tree we located before. No wonder we shelled their headquarters so many times. The command headquarters has not been paralyzed yet!”

In fact, after the troops on the southern front attacked the Japanese artillery positions, they launched an artillery attack on the Japanese headquarters based on the intelligence provided by the telecommunications detection troops. However, because the little devils placed the radio antenna nearly 200 meters away, On the tree, so no matter how the red police force conducted fire strikes, they could not kill the little devil's headquarters.

"Calculate the coordinates and send them back to the fire company!"

"Yes!"

When the red alert soldiers sent back the coordinates of the Japanese division headquarters, the fire company replied: "The coordinates are in the shooting blind zone and cannot carry out fire strikes!"

After all, the fire company is equipped with direct firepower, and cannot effectively attack the Japanese command headquarters on the hilly reverse slope.

Seeing this, a platoon leader said directly: "Deputy company, why don't we lead the team!"

Upon hearing this, the deputy company commander directly gave the platoon leader a slap in the face and said, "Are you okay? Can this thing be shot directly? There are all Japanese logistics troops near the Japanese headquarters. Even if our two platoons are covered in iron, How many nails can you drive? Why fight so hard without supporting firepower?!"

"But where do we have the support firepower now?"

"Wait!" After the deputy company commander finished speaking, he picked up the walkie-talkie in his hand and called the 203rd company headquarters, "Company commander! Our department has discovered the Japanese division headquarters. Please immediately move the artillery platoon to our position. !complete!"

"Got it, wait a minute!"

In the headquarters of the southern line blocking position, the commander of the 203rd Company said with a smile: "We have found the Japanese headquarters. Order the artillery platoon to join the first and second rows immediately!"

"Yes! Company commander!"

In the position of the blocking position, the Red Police fighters and the fourth and fifth regiments of the Japanese army were still engaged in a fierce exchange of fire.

"75 None! At 3 o'clock, the Japanese machine gun firepower point!"

"Roger that!"

"boom!"

The soldiers of the Red Police Force relied on their own equipment and firepower advantages to launch a fierce offensive and defensive battle with the Japanese army. Since the little devils now received a death order, they must break through the blocking defense line of the Red Police Force in one go, so the Japs are still continuing. Launch a sustained attack on the red police blocking positions on the southern front.

For the Red Alert troops, this continuous intensive attack is a great test of the troops' defense. After all, under this density of attack, the Red Alert soldiers cannot even delay the cooling of the gun barrel.

Weapons like general-purpose machine guns with replaceable barrels are okay, but automatic rifles and squad machine guns can only perform single-shot bursts and short bursts to extend the use time of the weapons in order to avoid overheating of the barrels.

To the little devils, the scene at this time was like they were about to break through the defensive position of the red police force.

But this sense of courage is just an illusion after all. In front of their forward positions, the Red Alert soldiers still deployed a large number of landmines to prevent the little devils from approaching.

Although the initially deployed directional mines have been exhausted, the pattern of anti-infantry mines being ejected by Red Alert soldiers in this area continues to increase.

So now, even if the Japs approach the front line of the blocking force, there is still a steady stream of mines and flamethrowers waiting for them.

The seemingly shaky blocking position is still impregnable!
At this time, the artillery platoon of the 203rd Company was already on its way to the outflanking troop position, and the two infantry companies of the Red Police Force that had originally encircled and annihilated the Japanese were also on their way to support the blocking troops.

For the little devils, their lives have officially entered a countdown.

Within the Japanese temporary division headquarters, the little devils are still discussing whether to increase the size of the offensive force.

Due to the fierce exchange of fire on the front line, the current Japanese command did not know that the guard squadrons conducting roundabout missions had been wiped out by the red police forces, so their main focus was still on the frontal battlefield against the red police blocking forces.

The temporary chief of staff of the Japanese division said: "Your Excellency, division commander, the Locust soldiers of the [-]th and [-]th regiments have suffered very heavy casualties, but according to the response from the front, the opponent's firepower has been greatly weakened after a long period of combat. , if we can continue to invest troops, we should be able to completely wipe out this Chinese army."

Listening to the chief of staff's words, the leader of the Japanese division was also filled with anguish.

Now the entire temporary division has invested 5 regiments of troops, and there are only two regiments targeting the blocking position. Judging from the previous experience of fighting against the Guo army, the Chinese army on the opposite side should have collapsed long ago.

However, this force not only did not collapse, but also caused heavy losses to the two offensive regiments with inferior strength. Even under such circumstances, they were forced to increase the strength of the offensive force.

You know, now their temporary division has only one engineering brigade and the logistics unit left!
In addition, the Japanese army has no available troops.

But the little devil's battle has reached this point. They have no choice but to issue an order: "Order the baggage regiment to send half of the troops to support the fourth and fifth regiments on the front line!" "Hai!"

After the order was given, the leader of the Japanese division was filled with pain. He probably should commit suicide after this battle is over.

Originally, this temporary division had five infantry regiments, one baggage regiment, two artillery brigades, and an engineering brigade. This force organization was already equivalent to a B division.

But now the life and death of three of the five infantry regiments of this B division are uncertain, two have suffered heavy casualties, two artillery brigades have been completely wiped out, and the remaining troops are not sure whether they can complete their strategic intentions. The casualties are estimated to be able to empty out the establishment of this division!
But the little devil can't wait until after the war to make statistics.

Just when the Japanese Army's logistics wing sent two brigades to support the forward troops, the artillery platoon of the 203rd company was already in place at the detour troops.

The reverse slope cannot be hit by continuous fire, but it is easy and enjoyable for the approaching mortar platoon to hit it!
After the mortar platoon quickly debugged, the platoon leader issued an order: "Attention all platoons! The first and second artillery high-explosive bombs trigger fuzes, the third and fourth artillery white phosphorus incendiary bombs, the time fuzes are 11 seconds, all Line up the No. 5 charge, fire [-] rounds quickly, and let go!”

Two 60mm mortars in the first and second rows also began to fire explosive and incendiary bombs at the Japanese command post along with the firing of the artillery platoon.

The main thing is to give the little devil no chance of survival!
The Japanese generals who were still discussing the battle plan in the headquarters did not realize that a large number of mortar shells were already flying towards them.

The first thing to hit the ground was an 82mm high-explosive shell. This shell landed directly in the Japanese command post.

"Your Excellency, Commander of the Protection Division!" A staff officer quickly knocked down the Japanese Lieutenant General's division commander. However, this attack could only dodge this one shell. They could not dodge the dozen or so shells that followed. past.

Thanks to the location of the roundabout troops not far from the Japanese division headquarters, they were directly within the line of sight of the artillery platoon.For this kind of target, the artillery of the Red Police Force can directly hit the target with the first shell without even a test firing adjustment.

Without a test shot, the little devil would not be aware of it in advance, and there would be no possibility of the little devil escaping.

The surrounding Japanese baggage troops and engineering troops saw that their headquarters had been bombarded and rushed over for reinforcements. However, due to the air burst damage of the white phosphorus incendiary bombs, the little Japanese had no way to enter the killing range for rescue.

The five rapid fire rounds ended quickly, and the little Japanese's division headquarters also fell into a sea of ​​flames following the artillery attack.

"The third brigade immediately rescued the division headquarters. The engineering brigade found the Chinese army's artillery and killed them!"

"Hay!"

Now the only command left by the Japs in the rear is the captain of the baggage regiment as the highest-ranking officer. Regarding the current situation, they have no choice but to rescue and pursue the Chinese army at the same time.

"After the first platoon is broken, cover the retreat of the artillery platoon!"

"Yes!"

The Japs' headquarters was blown up like this. Naturally, the Red Alert soldiers no longer had to waste time doing damage assessments. Seeing the Japs' troops coming toward them, the deputy commander of the 203rd Company in charge directly issued an order for the troops to retreat. ,

When there is no numerical advantage, it is natural to resort to hit and run.

Although the Japanese engineering troops are currently pursuing the enemy, which is slightly inferior in quality and equipment compared to the infantry troops, there are so many of them!
The Red Police Force's tactical objectives have been completed, so naturally they no longer need to tangle with the little devils.

After the Japanese division headquarters was killed, the Japanese troops attacking on the front line were naturally aware of this situation.Now not only is the Chinese army on the front unable to attack for a long time, but even the command post in the rear has been captured!

While losing his command, the little devil's morale also became low, and his attack on the Red Police force also weakened visible to the naked eye.

The Japs' attack has weakened, but reinforcements from the Red Police Force have arrived!

With the addition of two more infantry companies, the Red Police troops quickly launched a counterattack against the Japanese attacking troops.

In an instant, the offensive and defensive situation of the entire blocking position was reversed!

"All infantry squads, regardless of the form of combat, only recognize the clothes and not the people as a squad, and start attacking the Japanese army!"

After hearing the order, the red alert soldiers quickly stood up and began to charge towards the Japanese army with absolute firepower advantage. The supporting firepower of the four infantry companies also followed the fire channel to launch a devastating blow to the little Japanese!

For the Red Police Force, in a head-to-head battle, the firepower of a company can be equal to that of a regiment of devils.

Now it is four infantry companies against the two infantry regiments of the Japanese. Even though the Red Police troops have suffered certain casualties and are not at full strength, the Japanese troops have also suffered heavy casualties.

After the two companies of infantry arrived, there was even a situation where the number of personnel was one to one.

You know, at the beginning of the battle, the ratio of Chinese and Japanese forces was 1:14!
From this we can see how heavy the little devil's casualties were.

The red police infantry squad began to reorganize according to the offensive formation immediately after starting the offensive operation, and launched a pursuit of the little devils who started or were busy retreating.

The Japanese engineering brigade, which was planning to attack the roundabout troops, saw that the infantry on the front line began to retreat, and then gave up the pursuit of the roundabout troops.

Now the command of the entire unit is in chaos. The highest ranking officer in the entire Japanese temporary division is the captain of the baggage regiment. The infantry regiment headquarters that was originally commanding on the front line has also been called for artillery by the red police force during the obstruction. Knocked off.

The current little devil not only lost his command, but also couldn't even communicate between troops.

The army was defeated like a mountain, and the defeated Japanese had no power to recover.

The only word in the mind of the captain of the baggage regiment was retreat.But given the current situation, where can they retreat to?

It had only been a day, the assembly order from the Japanese Army Headquarters in Nanjing had just been issued, and the follow-up troops had just begun to assemble.

Not to mention anything else, even if they wanted to retreat, there would be no one to stop them.

At this time, there is only one way left for the little devil, which is to fight to the death!
After calming down, the captain of the Japanese baggage alliance ordered: "Order the troops to launch a jade-breaking attack on the Chinese army on the opposite side!"

"Hay!"
