Chapter 583: Annihilation of the 4th Fungal Division

After the Japanese army rushed out, the fungus could only start to withdraw its troops to provide support.

However, as the Japanese Tiger tanks opened fire, the defense line that the Japanese had just built came under increasing pressure from the Tiger tanks' 88mm tank guns.

If the M4 Sherman tank used by the mold was facing the small Japanese devils, there would be no problem, but now they are facing the Japanese Panzer IV and Tiger tanks.

In this situation, Sherman was completely at a disadvantage.

The armor-piercing shells of the Japanese Tiger tanks and Panzer IV tanks could directly penetrate the Sherman tanks. Even the Tiger tank's artillery could directly penetrate two Sherman tanks with one shot. However, the Sherman's main gun had difficulty penetrating the Japanese tank armor.

Especially when facing the Tiger tank, the Japanese could only penetrate it by attacking the rear armor of the Tiger tank from behind.

But under the current circumstances, it has become unrealistic for the mold's armored forces to move forward.

"Mason! Enemies appear at 3 o'clock!"

"Japanese tanks! Bazookas!"

"Whoosh~boom!"

Two mold soldiers were conducting defensive fire behind the ruins of a Sherman tank as a combat team. As a Japanese tank drove out of a cave, the mold immediately fired a bazooka.

However, the bazooka did not hit the Japanese tank, but hit the mountain next to the cave.

Although the shrapnel from the explosion still affected the two Japanese infantrymen, it had no effect on the tank.

"FU*K! What kind of tank is this?!"

"Thank you for the generous gift! The caliber of this main gun is almost comparable to that of a battleship's main gun, right?"

After seeing the Japanese tank that had just appeared, Mold instantly began to panic.

They could see very clearly that although this tank did not have a turret, the caliber of its main gun was incredibly large!
The Sturmtiger was the latest equipment of the Sandezi, but they didn’t have many deployed on the Eastern Front in Europe. The moldy white pigs had never seen this thing!
If a cannon of this caliber fires one shot, no one within a radius of 100 meters will survive.

At this time, the Japanese army's indirect fire artillery was supporting the Japanese naval forces in suppressing the Fungal Navy ships with firepower, so the Japanese army could not be covered by artillery fire in a short period of time. Therefore, the appearance of this tank played an extremely important supporting role in the Japanese army's offensive operations.

At this time, the Fourth Division of the Fungus had begun to shrink its forces due to the encirclement of the Japanese army. The current formation of the troops was very dense. If this tank started to fire at them, the consequences would be disastrous!
Brigadier General Oleg Hamilton, the frontline commander of the Fungus Force, suddenly became heavy-faced when he saw the current situation.

Now they are surrounded by Japanese troops in the depths of Guadalcanal. If nothing unexpected happens, they will be completely wiped out.

"Quickly notify the naval forces in the rear, we will continue to support!"

"Yes, sir!"

However, just as Brigadier General Oleg Hamilton had just given the order, the sound of aircraft engines began to appear at Henderson Airport in the center of Guadalcanal.

Ten Zero fighters and 10 Stuka dive bombers belonging to the Japanese Naval Air Force had already taken off and were heading straight for the Japanese naval ships responsible for supporting them.

"Shit! Guys, we're in big trouble!"

After the Japanese planes took off, the fungi realized that their navy could not provide them with much support.

The thirty Japanese fighter planes just now were just the first wave of attack, and the remaining Japanese fighter planes were still preparing to take off over Henderson Airport.

At this moment, the Japanese 380mm Sturmtiger also began firing at the Japanese army.

"Bang~boom!"

As a 380mm artillery shell hit the Fungal position, a gap was instantly opened in the defense line that the Fungal Fourth Division had just organized.

Looking at the huge area covered by the smoke after the explosion, Mold didn't even know how to defend himself for a moment.

Their troops were relatively dense to begin with, and when the Japanese army fired a 380mm artillery shell, no less than three hundred of their men were killed.

This also includes four tanks of mold.

However, although the Sturmtiger's firepower is very strong, its ammunition reloading speed is still very slow.

The long loading time also gives mold a chance to breathe.

"Order the tank regiment and the 23rd infantry regiment to destroy this Japanese heavy artillery at all costs! His combat effectiveness is too strong!"

"Yes, sir! I'll lead the troops there right away!"

Due to the powerful power of this artillery, Mold has regarded it as a thorn in its side.

If this Sturmtiger is not destroyed, the casualties of the mold will become incalculable.

So after the order was given, a tank regiment and an infantry regiment launched an offensive in the direction of the Sturmtiger in a coordinated manner between infantry and tanks.

Although the withdrawal of these two regiments would cause the Fungus in other directions to lack heavy armored support, overall, chasing this Sturmtiger was the primary task of the Fungus Fourth Division at this time.

"fire!"

"Tu tu tu tu tu~"

"boom!"

When Moldy was preparing for the attack, the Japanese had already learned of his plan to launch a counterattack based on his movements.

After all, the area where the mold is now located is so small that the movement of troops cannot be hidden from the eyes of the Japanese army. The Japanese know the attack position of the mold with their heels. They must be targeting the Sturmtiger equipped with a 380mm caliber artillery.

So as soon as the fungus launched the attack, the Japanese Sturmtiger began to move under the cover of two Type 4 tanks.

"Oh!"

"Baga! Aim at the fungus tank at 11 o'clock!"

"Hai!"

When a Japanese Type 4 tank was performing a covering mission and was retreating while fighting, a Sherman directly hit the turret of the Type 4 tank. Due to the angle, the shell ricocheted and was bounced away.

After being hit, the Japanese tank immediately turned its gun and aimed at the fungal tank that had just fired.

"boom!"

"Ah~!"

"Medic!" The Japanese artillery shell did not hit the moldy M4 Sherman tank, but fell on the side and rear of the tank, killing several moldy soldiers.

The fire control systems of tanks during World War II were far inferior to those of the Red Alert's equipment, and because the Japanese tank crews had no actual combat experience, they were far inferior to the Japanese tank crews in operating tanks.

However, this Type 4 tank was still moving when it fired, so the shell missed the target after it was fired.

However, as the mold's tank regiment gradually rushed up, the Japanese Sturmtiger and two Type 4 tanks responsible for accompanying and covering were also fighting and retreating.

The retreat of the Japanese Sturmtigers was completely within the expectations of the Japanese command.

According to the Japanese's combat plan, their tanks had already determined the direction and location of retreat when they were retreating.

The final location of this retreat was the ambush circle carefully prepared by the Japanese armored forces for the white pigs.

As the Japanese army fought and retreated, Moldy was successfully lured by the devils. Seeing that all of Moldy's troops had entered their ambush circle, the Japanese army also began to divide and encircle Moldy.

In addition, the Japanese troops responsible for encirclement also began blocking operations against the fungal infantry.

Lure the enemy deep into our territory, divide and surround them, and attack their reinforcements at their bases.
These tactics were all learned by the Japanese army when they faced the Ping'an County Security Corps and the Eighth Route Army on the Chinese battlefield. After many failed battles, the Japanese also learned many combat details from the battles with the Chinese.

Although the Japanese were unable to learn many of the tactics used by the Red Alert due to their backward equipment and technology, the parts that the Japanese were able to learn were enough to give these white pigs a hard time after applying them on the Pacific battlefield.

Therefore, on the entire Guadalcanal Island, the battle area between the Fungi and the Japanese army was divided into three parts.

One part was the Fungal Tank Regiment fighting against the Japanese tank regiment, one part was the Japanese infantry blocking the infantry forces that originally accompanied the armored forces, and the last part was the main force of the Fungal Fourth Division, which had been demobilized with a large number of troops.

Looking at the tank regiment surrounded by the Japanese armored forces, the Japanese infantry became extremely anxious.

In terms of pure armored technical equipment, the Japanese were far behind. And in terms of organization, although the Japanese regiment was at the regimental level, as a Guards unit, it must have many more troops in organization.

In this case, the molds vary greatly both in quality and quantity.

What's more, there were several Tiger tanks and a small number of Japanese infantry fighting in this encirclement.

Therefore, in the current encirclement of the Japanese army, most of the tanks that were blown up were enemy tanks, and very few Japanese tanks were blown up.

But for the current mold, if they don’t have tanks, they have no way to resist the encirclement of the Japanese army.

What awaits them is total annihilation!
So the fungal infantry that was originally accompanying the action began to attack forward frantically, but the Japanese blocking troops were waiting for this!
Dozens of MG42 general-purpose machine guns purchased from Sandezi were quickly set up in front of the Japanese's sniping position. As the fungal troops approached, the Japanese army immediately began to fire at them crazily.

"Tu tu tu tu tu tu tu~"

After the mg42 opened fire, the sound of tearing oilcloth was heard on the Japanese position. The bullets fired from the mg42 machine gun were like red iron whips, fiercely lashing at the attacking mold troops.

"Lie down!"

"Puff puff puff~"

As dense gunfire rang out, a lieutenant in charge of leading the vanguard, although he immediately reminded the surrounding Japanese soldiers to lie down, he was still shot into a sieve by the Japanese machine guns.

There were many troops who were shot to pieces like this American lieutenant. Since the Japanese army concentrated its heavy firepower and carried out instantaneous shooting, nearly half of the attacking forces fell on the way of attack.

"Fu*k! Fu*k! Fu*k!"

Watching his comrades around him being killed or injured by the Japanese machine guns, he could only watch helplessly as he was pinned to the spot unable to move.

As the infantry accompanying the tanks, they did not carry heavy weapons due to the support of the tanks, and the bazookas they carried had no chance to be used because of the enemy's overly dense firepower.

Then, Mold decided to launch a counterattack while the Japanese army was replacing gun barrels and reloading ammunition.

Unexpectedly, the barrel of the MG42 general-purpose machine gun that Sandezi was shooting at was very quick to replace, often only a few seconds to complete the barrel replacement, and before the battle, the Japanese arranged a large number of machine guns for rotation shooting.

Moreover, the Japanese machine guns and snipers cooperated with each other. Every time the machine guns ignored a part of the attack position, a moldy rifleman or bazooka operator would show up, and the Japanese snipers would take this opportunity to effectively kill the US troops.

As a result, the fungus could only suffer increasing casualties under the Japanese army's strafing and gradually lose its ability to attack.

After the armored combat area and the blocking battle area came to an end, the position of the main force of the 4th Fungal Division, which had been engaged in a protracted stalemate, began to tilt towards the Japanese army as the Japanese reinforcements gradually increased.

"Report to the wing commander, the tank wing's Sturmtiger has arrived and is ready to launch!"

"Yoshi! Request the Sturmtiger to send reinforcements immediately!"

"Hai!"

After that, the Japanese assault tigers and infantry began to coordinate their attack on the main force of the mold.

"Boom~!"

"I'll give it to you, Yasi!"

After receiving support from heavy artillery, the Japanese infantry immediately increased the speed of their attack.

The mold also began to be defeated under the attack of the Japanese 380mm artillery.

"Shit! Send a telegram directly to General Nimitz. If our reinforcements don't arrive, the Fourth Division will be lost forever!"

"Yes, sir!"

In the grassroots units of the Japanese army, the fighting spirit of the moldy soldiers was gradually worn away as they looked at the Japanese troops everywhere in the mountains.

At this time, the psychological state of the mold was the same as that of the Japanese army surrounded by the Red Alert forces in East China.

But unlike the Japanese army, the Japs were in agony when they were preparing to surrender, but the fungi did not have so many concerns at this time.

As support was delayed and his own troops suffered heavy losses, Mold naturally chose to surrender.

The first to surrender was the Fungal Tank Regiment that was surrounded by the Japanese armored forces. Faced with absolute advantage, the Fungal armored soldiers could no longer see any possibility of victory, so without the need for resistance, this group of Fungal armored soldiers chose to surrender under the leadership of a Fungal Lieutenant Colonel.

The next to choose to surrender was the main force of the Japanese 4th Division.

As the Sturmtiger's attack began, the mold troops began to collapse directly, and after the first mold surrendered, this situation spread wildly like a virus within the 4th Division.

The blocked fungus infantry were completely wiped out by the Japanese without even a chance to surrender under the suppression of machine gun fire.

The Fourth Fungal Division was officially declared annihilated. (End of this chapter)
