"Attention all the crews, the work is done, all return, the escort fighter group pay attention, beware of the little devil's fighter jets intercepting, don't tell me, your plane has all the bullets!" Le Yiqin drove the fighter plane around the pier He circled around, as if he was admiring his masterpiece. He was in a good mood, and couldn't help joking. Of course, fighter pilots are not as good as rookies yet!

The mixed fleet of the Southern Flying Group of the Independent Division returned to the voyage, rumbled and disappeared in the northern sky, leaving the Mount Molloy port full of bomb craters, black smoke and flames, a messy dock, and Japanese troops everywhere. The mutilated corpses of soldiers.

Lieutenant General Tanimura Ichiro, head of the 130th Seventh Division, his face was blackened by gunpowder smoke. With the support of the guards, he struggled to get up and looked at the messy wharf and the corpses of soldiers everywhere, wanting to cry without tears.

Preliminary estimates show that the Chinese planes only bombed for 130 minutes. There are at least [-] to [-] soldiers, and they are far from standing up. The [-]th Seventh Division has just been transferred from the North American battlefield. Bad luck, damn the arrogant guys of Army Aviation, why are there no Imperial fighter jets?

Lieutenant General Tanimura Ichiro, with grief and indignation, ordered the chief of staff of the division to count the casualties of the troops, and each brigade to reorganize the troops, and at the same time sent a telegram full of resentment to General Ito, severely suing the Australian army. Air Force Headquarters.

Lieutenant General Miura and Hitoshi hid in the cave.Listening to the roar of tank engines coming from outside, the gunshots getting closer and closer.Send a telegram to General Ito again, "Your Excellency, Commander-in-Chief. The Chinese Independent Division's bombardment of the imperial army has not stopped all night. Now, it has started a fierce tank and infantry attack. Army and Seventh Army, the casualties are extremely heavy, I am afraid it will be difficult to survive today!"

General Ito's call back was just a few words. "Be sure to persevere. Now, the offensive of the rescue force has achieved a major breakthrough. The blocking force of the China Independent Division is already difficult to support. You must persist until tomorrow morning anyway. The Bushido spirit of the soldiers of the Imperial Army can overcome all difficulties ! And. Miura-kun, I will be at the northern foot of the MacDonnell Mountains, waiting for news of your successful withdrawal!"

At the same time, the No. 14 Army of the General Reserve of the Japanese and Australian Front Army stationed in Darwin, northern Australia.According to the order of General Ito, all the troops of more than [-] people were dispatched.Go south urgently.

The brigades directly under the Corps fought to encircle and wipe out the Japanese Sixth Army and Seventh Army in the encirclement.At more than three o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, significant progress has been made.More than 7 Japanese soldiers, after two days and two nights of shelling and the attack of the armored piercing tactics, the last remaining, but [-] or [-] remnants of defeated soldiers, were all compressed in small areas. It is only a matter of time before the heavy equipment is lost and wiped out.

After receiving the reports from the brigades, Tang Qiuli breathed a sigh of relief. The progress of the brigades far exceeded his expectations. Now, although there are still 7 or [-] Japanese troops in the encirclement, they have no fighting spirit. , the remnants of the defeated generals, it's time to free up your hands and deal with the main force of the Japanese army in the middle!

Tang Qiuli's eyes shone coldly, and he said to Zhao Yuhe: "Yuhe, the progress of the battle in the encirclement is much faster than expected, this is an excellent opportunity! Order, armored commander Battelle, from From each tank brigade, one regiment was selected to continue the task of encircling and annihilating the Japanese army in the encirclement, and then all the armored brigades immediately marched to the north of the MacDonnell Mountains at the fastest speed!"

"Order, Artillery Commander Zheng Yong, the four artillery brigades directly under your department have all left the battlefield and marched as fast as possible to the north of the MacDonald Mountains. The brigades directly under the corps, after receiving the order, leave one The troops of the regiment will continue to carry out the current mission, and the rest of the troops will immediately leave the battle and march towards the northern part of the MacDonnell Mountains at the fastest speed, and all troops should report their positions to the division commander at any time!"

In the hinterland of the MacDonnell Mountains, still on the battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke, the armored units, artillery units, and brigades directly under the command of the division immediately left the battlefield. Like a whirlwind, it swept away towards the northern part of the mountain. It seemed hurried and chaotic, but in fact, each brigade had a clear goal, and they could gather troops while marching.

Tang Qiuli's move was bold. He left behind tens of thousands of soldiers to encircle and annihilate the Japanese army in his encirclement. He used the main force of the corps directly under him to attack the battlefield at the northern foot. But it was definitely not a risk. The fall of the Japanese army is a foregone conclusion.

After two days and two nights of heavy blows, the tens of thousands of Japanese troops in the encirclement circle in the hinterland of the MacDonnell Mountains were already fragmented, incompletely organized and defeated, with no fighting spirit and almost no power to fight back. , wasted on this.

"Yuhe, the brigades directly under the corps, the armored troops, and the artillery have all started to move. We should go too and meet the commander-in-chief Genzaburo Ito!" Tang Qiuli put on his military uniform and smiled at Chief of Staff Zhao Yuhe said.

At this time, the blocking battle in the northern part of the MacDonnell Mountains was at the most critical time. General Ito also invested more than 14 troops of the No. [-] Army, the reserve force that had just rushed to the battlefield today. During the attack of the guard corps.

General Ito's thought at this moment is not only to rescue the Sixth Army and the Seventh Army. In fact, from the telegram of Kazuhito Miura, the deputy commander of the center offensive force and the commander of the Sixth Army, he realized that even if the In the northern part of the MacDonald Mountains, the blocking of the independent division troops may have passed the siege of the independent division troops in the hinterland of the mountain. After two days and two nights of siege, the strength of the two armies is also very small. From the purpose of the battle, the rescue is of little significance up.

After realizing this, General Ito's dominant thinking changed. He wanted to use all available forces in his hands to fight an early decisive battle with the Independent Division troops in the McDonnell Mountains, which would affect the Australian war. , severely damage or defeat the independent division troops, then the battlefield situation of the entire Australian counterattack will change in a direction that is beneficial to the imperial army.

The Central Route Army of more than [-] people can free up its hands and join in either direction of the East and West Routes, which will cause a devastating blow to the troops of the Independent Division of China on the East and West Routes. Going south and capturing Adelaide, no matter which direction the central army is used in, it will lay the foundation for Australia's decisive victory in advance. For this reason, it will not hesitate to invest all the reserve forces of the Imperial Australian Front Army and pay many casualties.

General Ito issued a strict order to the commanders of all participating troops, "All armies should use elite divisions or brigades to take turns to fight, maintain uninterrupted attacks, do not give the enemy a chance to breathe, and don't worry about the casualties of soldiers. Determined to use the brave and fearless fighting spirit of the soldiers of the Imperial Army to completely smash the resistance will of the Chinese soldiers, and finally win the fundamental victory in the decisive battle in Australia!"

"All commanders at all levels who are hesitant and slow to question during the offensive will be dismissed on the spot and handed over to the Gendarmerie Command to be convicted after the war!" General Ito's order is very clear, that is, to pile up lives , but also to pile up the independent division troops. If the commander considers the casualties of the troops and does not resolutely carry out his orders, he will be dismissed from office and imprisoned first!

Under such strict orders, the Japanese commanders at all levels would never dare to have the slightest objection or question, and they would not take the lives of soldiers seriously. Japanese officers at all levels went crazy, and hundreds of thousands of Japanese soldiers became numb , only the instinct to attack and then attack.

Facing the frenzied attack of the Japanese army with more than twice its own strength, the pressure on the garrison of Niangziguan increased sharply, and the casualties of each brigade continued to increase. The commander Feng Jiwu who received the report remained calm as usual. Before the attack, the difficulty of the blocking battle had been fully estimated. It is not surprising that the Japanese army attacked so frantically. Therefore, the content of the order to each brigade was basically the same, "Resolutely defend and don't give up an inch!"

Twilight descended on the battlefield in the northern part of Mount Macdonald again. The day's bloody battle finally came to a halt as it got dark. The smell of gunpowder and blood permeated every corner of the battlefield. On the forward positions, the corpses of Japanese soldiers were everywhere.

Major General Jin Tieshan, the commander of the first brigade, leaned in the trench, spit out the dust in his mouth, shook his head and said to Cheng Shaofu, the chief of staff of the brigade: "Chief of staff, the little devil is crazy, damn it, within a day, They actually launched the first brigade-scale attack, and the artillery fire was fierce, by the way, how about the casualties of the troops?"

Cheng Shaofu took a breath of the air full of gunpowder smoke, and replied: "The casualties of the last repelled Japanese army have not yet been counted. According to the statistics of the previous battles, the casualties of each regiment are not small, and the number of casualties is reduced by 4000/[-]." Around one day, there were about [-] casualties, of which more than [-] were killed!"

"Damn it!" Jin Tieshan cursed in a low voice. After fighting for three days, the first brigade wiped out one of the main regiments. When the devil is so crazy.

"Pass on my order, all regiments should not rest tonight, rush to repair and reinforce the fortifications overnight, we have to be mentally prepared for a long-term fight!" Jin Tieshan said to Cheng Shaofu, "In addition, the casualties of the first brigade , report to the headquarters, but it must be explained that even if the first brigade is wiped out, my body, Jin Tieshan, is still lying on the ground!"

He was mentally prepared. When repelling the Japanese army's last attack, he even sent the brigade guard battalion. The major general himself, the brigade commander, also went into battle with a submachine gun. On such a cruel battlefield, bullets and shells, but I don't know who the brigade commander is.

However, personally going into battle to kill the enemy made Jin Tieshan regain his previous feeling. How should I put it, excitement and excitement!
