Bright sword, I have a red police base car

The Logistics Support Regiment of the Eighth Route Army was formed into the first platoon and second squad of the 501st company of the fifth battalion.

As a frontal attack force from the Japanese defense line on the west side, second squad leader Yu Hongying is leading the comrades in the squad to make final pre-war preparations.

"Comrades, after the bombardment is over, our squad and platoon headquarters will accompany the 533rd tank company in the attack. The squad deputy, 40 fire, will deal with the enemy's fire points as soon as possible and resolutely cover the tanks. Are you clear, comrades?!"

"clear!"

"Check ammunition and prepare to attack!"

"understand!"

At this time, in the three offensive directions of the Red Police Force, all the ground offensive forces of the Red Police Force have begun to enter the final stage of combat preparations in full swing.

At the same time, the aviation area of ​​the Dagushan base area of ​​the Red Police Force is also full of busy Red Police soldiers.

According to the search needs, after the attack on Kaifeng begins, the Air Force will dispatch two groups of attack aircraft for aerial coordination, and will also dispatch a fighter group to ensure air superiority.

After the attack by the attack aircraft ends, the aerial gunships will enter the battlefield to provide close air support.

Not only the air force is preparing, but the two battalions of airborne troops that Zhao Han applied to Zhang Shijie are also starting to board the plane at this time, ready to set off for combat at any time.

Although the airborne troops were dispatched relatively late, according to the plan, they needed to encircle the Japanese troops when they were about to break the city and prepare to retreat. However, the situation on the scene was changing rapidly, and Zhang Shijie also had to make advance preparations.

"Lao Zhang, how long has it been since Zhao Han started shelling?"

Zhang Ning looked at his watch after hearing this, it was 4:37.

Then Zhang Ning said to Zhang Shijie: "Chief, Deputy Chief of Staff Zhao has been firing for 37 minutes. According to the plan, our air force will take off in 3 minutes and head to the Kaifeng area."

Hearing this, Zhang Shijie nodded, and then continued to work with Chen Xi on the disaster relief work in Henan.

In the Kaifeng frontline headquarters, Zhao Han, deputy chief of staff of the Red Police Force, was conducting a final review of the later attack plan.

"Deputy Chief of Staff, the artillery unit reported that they completed the artillery bombardment on a Japanese artillery position a minute ago, and the scale of the blockade was one regiment."

"Order the artillery reconnaissance radars of the 1st Heavy Artillery Battalion and the 4th Heavy Artillery Battalion to strengthen the detection of the Japanese artillery force. As soon as the Japanese artillery fire is discovered, they will be annihilated immediately! The remaining troops must also strengthen the detection of the Japanese army's key targets. Once discovered, they will be immediately annihilated. Annihilation!"

"Understood, Deputy Chief of Staff."

After receiving the order, the Red Police Force once again strengthened its guidance and attack on the Japanese positions.

However, at this time, all the bombs that the little devil should explode have been almost finished, and there is no point in searching by force.

At 4:40, a fighter group and two attack aircraft groups, a total of 240 aircraft, began to take off from the airport in the Dagushan Aviation Zone.

In addition, for emergency support, Zhang Ning also arranged for a J-6 squadron and a Qiang-5 squadron to be on standby.

More calculations will win, less calculations will not win, and what’s more, there will be no calculations?

Although the red police force had an absolute advantage in the battle, according to Zhang Shijie's habit, he still prepared a group of troops for emergencies.

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, the artillery of the Red Police Army located around Kaifeng began a comprehensive ceasefire.

The Japs' position in Kaifeng was full of craters made by the Red Police artillery. The original state of the position was no longer visible.

But the only good thing for the Japanese army is that most of the artillery fire coverage area of ​​the Ping'an County Security Group is the positions outside Kaifeng. In order not to damage the city as much as possible, the Red Police Force did not cover the city with large-scale artillery fire.

Of course, it was impossible not to fight at all. Some of the areas hit were basically areas confirmed by Red Alert spies to have no civilians and where Japanese troops were gathering.

For example, the area where the Jaap's heavy artillery regiment is located.

After hearing that the shelling by the Ping'an County Security Group had stopped, the Japanese division garrisoned at the outer positions of Kaifeng finally ran out of the shell holes and planned to rely on their positions to re-defense.

But after these little devils came out, the sight before them almost made them faint.

Under the fierce artillery fire, all the trenches, communication trenches, bunkers and other position fortifications they had worked hard to build were completely blown up.

Now the little devils can only use simple positions even if they bring out the concealed heavy machine guns.

Not only that, the anti-tank trenches, minefields, barbed wire fences, and anti-tank cones they had laid out before were also blown up completely!

What was originally a positional defense battle has now become a field battle!
"How long can we hold on without fortifications?"

Looking at the scene in front of him, the leader of the Japanese division couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

The Japanese division currently responsible for the garrison has not only lost more than one-third of its personnel, but also all heavy weapons such as artillery and armor.

The only things that can be effectively preserved now are the Type 92 infantry guns and various types of mortars equipped by each squadron.

After all, these little things can be stuffed into any artillery hole. Large and heavily equipped red police units are easy to fight, but it is not easy to clear all these small targets.

Just when the little devils began to organize their troops to build a defense line, the Red Police troops' attack also began.

"Rumble..."

Accompanied by the rumbling sound of tracks from the south, north, and west, the infantry and tank coordination units of the Red Police Force also began to attack the troops of the Japanese Eleventh Army on the periphery of Kaifeng.

"Bang~boom!"

The tank of the Red Police Armored Force took the lead in firing, and a tank gun fired from the moving tank towards the Japanese position.

However, this shell was not a precision-fired shell, but a rough shot. Its target was not the enemy's firepower point, but to plan the reorganization of the Japanese defense line.

"How can we repair it! The Ping'an County security team came up and started shooting!"

"Thud, tug, tug, tug, tug..."

The little devil, who was stunned by the sudden tank bombardment, immediately used the Type 13.2 heavy machine gun and the mm caliber anti-aircraft machine gun to fight back.

However, because the distance was too far, the Japs' shooting could not pose any substantial threat to the Red Police troops.

Except for a small number of these bullets hitting the tank armor, they did not even damage the hair of the Red Police troops.

"All troops, except for the tanks' main guns who fired intermittently to harass the Japanese troops, the rest of the troops stabilized their formations, opened fire with anti-aircraft machine guns within 500 meters, and fired freely within 350 meters!"

As orders were issued from each unit, the Red Police units began to advance steadily toward the Japanese positions.

"Shoot! Shoot!"

The grassroots Japanese officers who were commanding on the front line saw that machine gun fire could not stop the Red Police troops from advancing, so they immediately commanded the few remaining artillery forces to prepare for the interception.

The few remaining Type 92 infantry guns and mortars of the Japanese army were carried out. This action of the little devil played right into the hands of the Red Police Force.

As the Japanese artillery was pushed out, the Red Police reconnaissance aircraft, rear artillery observers, and team snipers of the front-line accompanying troops also began to provide target instructions to the tanks and artillery.

"533, direction of :, Type infantry artillery, short stop to annihilate!"

"Attention for one shot from the 5th mortar company, bearing: 963, altitude: 044, white phosphorus incendiary bomb, one test shot, fire!"

……

At this time, the organizational advantages of the Red Police Force were highlighted.

Although combatants account for a small proportion of the overall force, various support forces are very sufficient.

Whether it is fire support or logistical support, the establishment of the Red Police Force is far ahead of the militaries of various countries in this era.

In this era where firepower is king, numbers are no longer the key to determining the outcome of a war.

As the troops continued to advance, the infantry and tank coordinated offensive troops of the Red Police Force finally reached within the 500-meter line of the Japanese forward troops.

The little devil entering the shooting range of the red police force also means that the red police force also entered the shooting range of the Japanese.

As the anti-aircraft machine guns on the Red Police tanks opened fire, the Japs were forced to fire back.

But after all, the Red Police Force had armored troops as cover, and because all the fortifications were destroyed, the Little Japs could only build simple individual fortifications on the spot, or even use bomb craters for cover.

In fact, the little devils still have some small sections of trenches that still exist, but these little devils cannot use these fortifications at all.

If there were a little more people here, the artillery in the rear would definitely hit them accurately.

Just as the infantry tanks entered the 500-meter line, the mortar troops behind the Red Police troops also began intensive shelling of the Japanese forward positions.

The mortar units of these battalions are all heavy-duty mortars with a caliber of 100 mm and a caliber of 120 mm. The little devils cannot bear the shells fired by the large-caliber mortars.

Moreover, the Red Police mortars were battalion-level close-coordinated artillery, and their operations were very methodical at the time.

The mortar troops in the rear carried out barrages according to the forward speed of the ground offensive troops. If the ground troops moved forward a little, the artillery strike would move forward a little, and the distance between the explosive point and the front line of the attacking troops was always 500 meters.

This can not only expand the strike efficiency of artillery fire, but also avoid accidental damage to one's own side during coordinated attacks.

As for the missed Japanese targets, they will be dealt with by artillery forces at the company and platoon level as well as tanks and armored vehicles.

"How can it be repaired! Hurry up and notify the rear to provide support as soon as possible or shrink the troops to the rear. We can't resist the attack of the Ping'an County Security Group now!"

"Hai, your Excellency, the division commander!"

Seeing the steady advance of the Red Police troops, the leader of the Japanese division in charge of the outer positions realized that the attack by the Ping'an County Security Group was not the siege they thought at all, so he could only report the current situation to the Eleventh Army Headquarters. Please make your decision, Commander Anan Weiji.

The commander of the Eleventh Army of the Little Japs, Anan Weiji, also immediately noticed something was wrong after receiving a call from the outer positions.

The purpose of the Ping'an County Security Group is not to besiege, otherwise they would not be able to use such a powerful attack!

Normally, the number of units in a single attack will usually not exceed the current unit's secondary units.

For example, if the Little Devils dispatch a coalition of troops, then the single offensive force usually does not exceed one brigade.

But the current attack by the Ping'an County Security Group is completely different.

Judging from the intensity of the troops' attack, the Ping'an County Security Group's attack brought all the troops up.

This is not a siege at all!
But to penetrate the hundreds of thousands of troops of their Eleventh Army in one go!

Ananweiji, who thought he understood the strategic purpose of the Ping'an County Security Group, immediately issued an order to the Japanese troops on the periphery: "Order Kaifeng's peripheral troops to alternate cover and withdraw into Kaifeng City. The troops in Kaifeng City immediately organized troops to engage in street fighting with the Ping'an County Security Group. The chariot division immediately left the city to slow down the offensive of the Ping'an County Security Group as much as possible."

Anan Weiji also took the risk this time.

He knew that the Ping'an County Security Corps had strong combat effectiveness, but he never expected that the troops of the Ping'an County Security Corps did not even make a tentative attack.

Now he can only rely on the newly added tank division to fight a tank battle!

In the new round of force establishment of the Japanese army, armored forces are usually organized into tank brigades directly under each army, and tank divisions are commanded as independent units.

However, the Eleventh Army had been beaten so badly before that it could only temporarily add an independent tank division that had completed preparations to the Eleventh Army.

Otherwise, let alone resist the Ping'an County Security Group and defend Kaifeng City.

The Eleventh Army was not able to escape even if it was difficult for them to escape.

At this time, Anan Weiji planned to cut off his tail and use this independent tank division to exchange for enough infantry to enter the city and fight street battles with the Ping'an County Security Group.

As we all know, street fighting and jungle fighting can best weaken the dominant side. Although Anan Weiji had long considered having a round of street fighting with the Ping'an County Security Group in Kaifeng City, he never thought that street fighting would need to take place on the first day of the fight between the two sides. Just proceed.

The troops deployed on the periphery will have to hold on for how many days, right?

Who would have thought that they had built such complete fortifications and deployed so many troops, but in the end they could not hold out for even a few hours under the attack of the Ping'an County Security Group.

The Red Police Force opened fire at four o'clock in the afternoon, and it's not even six o'clock yet!
Looking at the offensive efficiency of the Ping'an County Security Group, Anan Weiji couldn't help but frown.

The current situation on the battlefield was completely different from what he had expected. The entire battlefield was completely one-sided. Anami Weiki and the staff of the Eleventh Army, whose self-confidence was frustrated, did not dare to rashly plan the next battle.

Originally, the little devil thought that after completing the costume change, even if he did not overwhelm the Ping'an County security team, he could still compete with them!

result……

That's it?

Anan Weiji, who was frowning, said to the communications soldier: "Contact the aviation force and ask them to dispatch all aircraft to support Kaifeng!"

"Hai!"

"By the way, let the airport direction send a message to Nanjing and ask the Commander-in-Chief to give us some reinforcements!"

Seeing that the troops of the Ping'an County Security Regiment were about to take away his Eleventh Army in one go, Anan Weiji did not consider any losses.

Now he can only use all available power to resist the Ping An County Security Group.

At this time, let alone the dozens of aircraft of the aviation force, as long as Kaifeng can be defended, even if the entire tank division is annihilated!
