Bright sword, I have a red police base car

As time went by, Japanese troops stationed in Kaifeng also arrived in the Yanwuzhuang area.

But at this time, Yanwuzhuang has become a ruin. Whether it is the troops stationed here or the ammunition stored here, the little devils have no access to it.

"Bagayalu! Contact the army headquarters quickly, haha!"

The leader of the Japanese brigade who arrived at Yanwuzhuang looked at the ruins in front of him and immediately shouted to the communications soldiers on the side.

The reason why the leader of the Japanese Brigade was so anxious was not because of the casualties in Yanwuzhuang or the loss of ammunition, but because the Japanese army had seriously misjudged the war in Henan!

Previously, because the three combined battalions of the Red Police Force were resting in Fengqiu, the Japanese army believed that the offensive direction of the Red Police Force was in the Fengqiu area, and the Japs deployed almost all of the main force of the 11th Army in this location.

But this time the Red Police Force took out the logistics center on the Western Front, and its real main attack area is self-evident.

"Contact the headquarters immediately to convey the news that the main attack direction of the Ping'an County Security Regiment is on the western front, and send electricity to all defense forces on the western front to let them be more vigilant!"

"Hai! Your Excellency, Brigade Commander!"

In the headquarters of the Japanese 11th Army in Kaifeng, the commander of the Japanese 11th Army, Anan Weiji, fell into deep thought while looking at the telegram sent from the direction of Yanwuzhuang.

The tactical intention of the Ping'an County Security Group's action this time was too obvious, and because it was so obvious, Anan Weiji wondered whether this was a trick by the Ping'an County Security Group.

After all, there are too many Ping'an County security regiments in the direction of Fengqiu. Once they mobilize the main force, if the Ping'an County security regiment launches a cross-river operation from the direction of Fengqiu, they will not be able to resist at all.

Just when Anan Weiji was in a dilemma, a Japanese staff officer quickly ran into the headquarters with a telegram.

"Your Excellency, Commander! Oh no, the Ping'an County Security Group stationed in Fengqiu is now heading towards the western front!"

"Nani?! Inform the troops on the western front to be vigilant and prepare for battle immediately, and order the 14th brigade in Kaifeng to go to the western front immediately! Then pull out a brigade from the central coastal defense position!"

"Hai! But Your Excellency Commander, we have just contacted the defense forces on the western front, but they did not make any reply."

Hearing what the staff officer said, Anan Weiji almost sat down on the ground.

Conducting electromagnetic interference during combat has become a symbolic behavior for the Red Police Force to start an attack. Now that the Western Front has not responded, it is likely that the Red Police Force has already started to attack!

"Where's our backup phone line?!"

"Your Excellency, Commander, since Chinese guerrillas often appear in our rear, in addition to harassing our small units, they also cut off a large number of our wired communications. Before the attack on Yanwuzhuang, our phone calls with the Western Front Communication has not been restored yet..."

"Bagaya road!"

Just when Anan Weiji, the commander of the 11th Army of the Little Japs, was incompetent and furious, two heavy artillery battalions of the Red Police Force were beginning violent shelling on the western front of the Japanese Yellow River Defense Line.

The artillery of these two battalions is no longer the original artillery battalion of the Red Police Force. Now the artillery group of the Red Police Force has fully decentralized 122 mm caliber barrel artillery, and these artillery are used as battalions of synthetic battalions, tank battalions and other units. level artillery force.

At this stage, the regiment-level support firepower of the Red Police Force, known as the Eighth Route Army Logistics Support Group, has been replaced by 130mm cannons, 152mm howitzers and 122mm multiple rocket launchers.

The main force of the two artillery battalions accompanying the Great Steel Wall mission are two 152mm howitzer battalions, and each battalion is reinforced with a 122mm rocket launcher battery.

The density and range of this kind of artillery fire coverage are something these little devils have never seen in their lives.

Just as the little devils were being frantically attacked by the artillery of the Red Police Force, a large number of troops were also gathered in the river beach area near Xuzhuang Village on the north bank of the Yellow River, and the most important of these troops was the engineer cluster Zhouqiao that had just arrived. Camp.

As trucks carrying pontoon bridge erection modules slid the modules into the water for deployment, the surrounding speedboats responsible for connection and erection also began to quickly follow.

Four companies of the Red Police Force's pontoon bridge camp quickly deployed in front of the river beach, and the prototypes of four synchronously erected pontoon bridges also appeared in front of the Red Police Force.

At this time, Zhao Han was looking at the south bank of the Yellow River with heavy artillery fire in Xuzhuang Village. He turned to the commander of the pontoon bridge battalion and asked: "Song Chuanjie, I give you half an hour. The four pontoon bridges must be erected at the same time within half an hour." , can it be done?”

Song Chuanjie, the commander of the Zhouqiao Battalion, heard this and said: "Don't worry, deputy chief of staff, it took us 26 minutes to build the 20-meter pontoon bridge on the Yangtze River. If we can't erect the -meter pontoon bridge in minutes, you can use my head as a ball to kick." !”

Hearing this, Zhao Han also smiled and said: "Okay, I feel relieved with your words!"

Since the equipment, technical and tactical levels of the Red Police Force are basically the same as those of the People's Liberation Army's Engineer Boat Bridge in 2018, the efficiency of building the bridge is basically the same.

While the Zhouqiao Battalion was building the bridge, Type 63A amphibious tanks, Type 77-2 amphibious armored vehicles and boat transport vehicles also began to assemble near the river beach.

These equipments belong to the 1st Marine Battalion, the first unit of the Red Alert Force to participate in combat.

Because this time we were conducting a river-crossing operation, but since the efficiency of passing through the boat bridge was indeed not high, the Red Police Force needed a force that could quickly seize the beach.

Although Zhang Shijie's red police force has no combat effectiveness, in terms of beach landing operations, the Marine Corps uniform is definitely the strongest!
"Reporting to Comrade Deputy Chief of Staff, the 1st Battalion of the Marine Corps is ready for combat. Please give instructions! Battalion Commander Chu Haisheng!"

Zhao Han saw that the troops were ready for battle, and then ordered: "Order, after the Zhouqiao Battalion erected three-quarters of the pontoon bridge, the 1st Marine Battalion immediately began to carry out cross-river operations. At the same time, the artillery unit began to advance barrages. , after the 1st Marine Battalion completed the beach landing, the 1st Light Tank Battalion and the 2nd Light Tank Battalion began to cross the river, are all units clear?"

"clear!"

"Go on mission!"

"Yes!"

Watching the battalion commanders leave the headquarters and return to their respective units to issue combat orders, Zhao Han then said to the correspondent on the side: "Give power to the 5th, 6th, and 7th Battalions of Hehe and ask them how long it will take to reach Xuzhuang Village."

"Report to the Deputy Chief of Staff, and the 5th, 6th, and 7th Battalions will call back. They are expected to arrive at Xuzhuang Village in an hour!"

At the same time, the two light tank battalions of the Red Police Force also completed their assembly in the two areas of Xuzhuang Village and Doumen Township and were ready to cross the river.

Five minutes later, the Zhouqiao Battalion began to call on the river crossing command channel: "Attention all troops! The pontoon bridge erection progress has exceeded three-quarters!"

"1st Marine Battalion received it!"

"The 1st Heavy Artillery Battalion received it!"

"Receipt from the Fourth Heavy Artillery Battalion!" Subsequently, hundreds of 152 mm caliber artillery pieces from the two heavy artillery battalions of the Red Police Force began to barrage, and more than a hundred amphibious tanks and amphibious armored vehicles on the river beach also began to enter the water.

In order to make up for the lack of infantry in the offensive force at this stage, Zhao Han also organized a part of the infantry troops to cross the river in assault boats.

At the same time, the special agent battalion also dispatched 10 special boats to provide near-shore fire support to the troops crossing the river.

At this moment, as the heavy artillery barrage began to advance, the surviving troops at the Japanese front-line defensive positions also discovered densely packed amphibious tanks and armored vehicles on the river, as well as four pontoon bridges that were about to be erected.

This scene shocked the little devil greatly.

Not to mention so many armored units that can cross the river, these four pontoon bridges are enough to shock the little devils for a whole year!
"Na...Nani?! When did these floating bridges appear?!"

After seeing these pontoon bridges, a Japanese major suddenly felt that time and space were confused. He felt that the shelling just now was not ten minutes, but several hours.

Where else did these floating bridges come from?

What? ! You said it takes ten minutes to set up a pontoon bridge?
Are you kidding me? !

Then the Japanese major looked at his watch. After learning that only ten minutes had passed, the Japanese major sat down on the ground, not even thinking about commanding the battle.

How can they fight if the other side can build four floating bridges at the same time in ten minutes?
But you can't just think about the worst in this kind of thing. At least he can be sure that what he has on hand is not broken, right?
Although the current Japs suffered heavy casualties, when they saw the 1st Marine Battalion of the Red Police Force crossing the river, the Japs could only start to fight back.

However, the strength of their counterattack was a bit overwhelming in the eyes of the Red Police Force.

The special boat troops who were on standby around the boat bridge immediately used the Gatling gun on the boat to start a counterattack after seeing the Japs firing.

Also counterattacking at the same time were 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine guns mounted on more than a hundred amphibious armored vehicles.

To be honest, the Red Alert soldiers of the 1st Marine Battalion really couldn't figure it out. Where did the little devils have the courage to fight with them with individual light weapons?
Do you really think they are the Eighth Route Army?
Instead of surrendering, the enemy dared to fight back at me!
That's it!
Looking at the sporadic firepower on the little Japanese's beachhead, the anti-aircraft gunner on the Type 63A amphibious tank could only use burst fire to clear out the sparse firepower as much as possible.

At this moment, a Japanese 13.2mm anti-aircraft machine gun suddenly opened fire, and the anti-aircraft machine gun bullets crackled on the Type 63A amphibious tank and the Type 77-2 amphibious armored transport vehicle.

Fortunately, the amphibious armored infantry company of the 63st Marine Battalion is equipped with the 77 series amphibious transport vehicle modified based on the 63 amphibious tank. If the D armored transport vehicle is equipped, the side armor may be penetrated by the Japanese anti-aircraft machine gun.

However, although this machine gun cannot penetrate the armor of the amphibious armored unit of the Red Police Force, this firepower has already posed a threat to the vehicle-mounted anti-aircraft machine gun shooters.

So a 63A amphibious tank turned its muzzle and aimed it at the Japanese machine gun position.

"Bang!~Boom!"

Under the attack of the 63mm tank gun mounted on the 85A amphibious tank, the machine gun position of the Little Devil was directly physically cleared.

A tank commander set up his binoculars, looked at the takeoff Japs and anti-aircraft machine guns and couldn't help but sigh: "Have they always been so brave?"

As the Japanese firepower points on the beachhead were cleared one by one, the First Marine Battalion of the Red Police Force also began to land on the south bank of the Yellow River. Driven by the tank tracks, the amphibious armored force of the 1st Marine Battalion also left the river.

The western line of the Japanese Yellow River Defense Line, the headquarters of the Langchenggang position.

At this time, the Japanese defense forces were undergoing heavy blows from the heavy artillery of the Red Police troops, and the entire vertical position of the western front defense position was also covered by artillery fire.

These included Japanese artillery positions and armored mobile forces.

As the key support force for the Japanese defense, these 152 mm caliber heavy artillery can be said to be vulnerable to attack!
Since the western front is the weakest part of the entire Japanese defense line, there is only one infantry brigade and one regiment stationed here. Three combined battalions in the direction of Fengqiu can beat the little Japanese to paralysis in a very short period of time. , let alone the main force of the Red Police Force.

"Front finger, I am the 1st Marine Battalion. We have now boarded the Japanese beachhead and are ready to start advancing in depth towards the Japanese army. The follow-up troops can cross the river. Over!"

"After the front finger was received, the first and second light tank battalions immediately began to cross the river. The heavy artillery unit ceased fire after 10 minutes. Our air force is almost here!"

"The first light tank battalion received it!"

"The Second Light Tank Battalion received it!"

"The First Heavy Artillery Battalion understands!"

"The Fourth Heavy Artillery Battalion understands!"

Subsequently, the main force of the Red Police Force began to move rapidly from the north bank of the Yellow River to the south bank of the Yellow River from these four pontoon bridges. As the Japanese army's Yellow River defense line collapsed under the attack of the First Marine Battalion, the main force of the Red Police Force was unable to relieve itself at the weakest point of crossing the river. There is no loss at all.

At the same time, on the north and south banks of the Yellow River, three synthetic battalions of the Red Police Force and two brigades of the Japanese Army were frantically moving towards Langchenggang.

Now in the western front area of ​​​​the Japanese defense line, the Japanese army's radio communications have been blocked by all channels, and wired communications have also been cut off by the special agent battalion units behind enemy lines. The Japanese 11th Army Headquarters has no idea of ​​the battle situation on the western front at this time.

In order to buy more time for the three combined battalions, the soldiers of the special agent battalion also began to leave a mark on the Japanese reinforcements' route.

"05, I am 01. I will report back immediately after discovering the Japanese army!"

"05 understand!"

At this time, a 12-man tactical operations team was laying mines on the road that the Japanese army was about to pass.

However, since the special forces members are mobile forces on foot, the number of mines they carry is limited and can only be deployed in some key areas.

"06, deploy your anti-tank mine to the valley, 03 go and put the directional mine on the tree! The Japs are coming soon, we have to be quick!"

The special operations team members are no worse than professional engineers in laying mines, and they also have some more whimsical ideas.

Apart from anything else, no kid would have imagined that special operations team members would place anti-infantry directional mines on trees!
