The Iron and Steel Frenzy of the Republic of China

An hour later, the follow-up troops of the Armored Mountain Brigade swarmed in. Hundreds of tanks made a big roundabout from both sides, and wiped out all the remaining forces of the 63rd Regiment in one go. Except for the few who escaped in the dark, all The armored units and the difficult-to-move artillery were all taken out.

In the early morning of the next day, when the Japanese army came in for reinforcements from the direction of Krulen, they were frightened out of their wits by the information fed back by the Air Force reconnaissance plane!The main force of a whole brigade and the artillery and heavy weapons attached to a division were all annihilated, and turned into nothing overnight!

Sasaki, who was sitting in Ulaanbaatar, stayed up all night. After receiving the battle report ahead in the early morning, he was so shocked that he couldn't even eat breakfast. He buried himself in the battle map for a few minutes, dropped the pencil ruler, and sighed at the staff. Said: "The empire knows too little about the enemy! Our preparations are seriously insufficient!"

This is tantamount to nonsense. If you understand enough, how can you make a mentally retarded move to disperse the armored troops to meet the enemy? It's not like the army doesn't know how far the Japanese mechanized army is from the Chinese front army. It's wishful thinking to just rely on a few super tanks to turn the situation around!

The staff department of the [-]th Division couldn't think of a better way, and looked blankly at the commander of the Division Chief planning his strategy with a straight face. The result was indeed a frustrating result: "Withdraw! We can't hold it alone. Mongolian people, let the Chinese people be arrogant for a while!"

Withdraw! ?Not to mention the staff officers, the defense forces who stick to their posts can't understand such orders!The Mongolian plateau is such a vast land. Although there is nothing to do other than grazing, it is a vast territory after all, representing the strength of a country. The Kwantung Army spent 5 sacrifices in exchange for the result, just because someone rushed Come here, just give up casually?This is so irresponsible!

There were waves of protests one after another, and Sasaki shouted angrily: "This is a decision made by the headquarters and the Kwantung Army Command. No one is allowed to raise objections! Execute the order!"

The defense force of less than one wing suddenly died down.No matter how loud they shout, they must face reality squarely.Use less than 1 infantry to stop the advance of hundreds of tanks as the forward armored force?There is no other result except to die!

But the appearance always has to be done, and it is not reconciled to withdraw like this!

At 9 o'clock in the morning on September 24th, when the Japanese army of the 6rd Wing completely collapsed.A large group of Japanese fighter planes flew from the northwest.The Nakajima aircraft, which are widely equipped by Army Aviation, formed a formation of about 63 aircraft, aggressively pounced on the armored units that were slowly advancing all over the mountains and plains with green smoke.

The radar alarm rang skyrocketingly, and Wang Zhangtang immediately lost his head when he counted the number of enemy planes. He grabbed the radio and called to the rear: "The air force of the little devil is coming, how many brothers should be active?"

Huang Panyang, the commander of the Army Air Force Flying Regiment, connected directly and lazily said: "Don't worry! It will come when it's time. General Wang just pushes forward!"

Wang Zhangtang was very displeased with the consistent American style of the Air Force from top to bottom. Even though it was an urgent moment, this group of people still had a cynical tone.It's too outrageous!

It's a pity that he can't manage the air force on the ground, so he hung up after a few sentences of threats, and then dispatched to the subordinates: "The air force of the little devil is coming, cheer me up if you don't want to die, the boy of the air defense force Guys, hurry up and take your positions. Those bastards in the Air Force don't necessarily care!"

Relying on no one is worse than relying on oneself, Wang Zhangtang secretly became ruthless, and when his establishment expands, he must prepare a direct air force to command, no one needs to look at his face!

In the five regiments of the mountain brigade, each armored battalion has an air defense company, and another brigade is directly under the air defense battalion.All equipped with dual-mounted 20mm anti-aircraft cannons and quadruple-mounted heavy machine guns, they were slightly behind when following the battle, but at this time, they flooded into the positions to fill the gaps.The air defense radars directly under each regiment have turned on the air search mode, and connected with the communication center of the brigade headquarters to share real-time reconnaissance intelligence from space and the sky.

The Japanese army's two flying regiments stationed in Mongolia formed six fleets before and after the formation, and the first to bear the brunt was Wang Zhangtang's main attacking front line, which caused great damage to his armored troops!

There were few clouds in the sky in the early morning, and it was gray with gunpowder smoke. The dexterous fighter jets swooped down from a high place, and they clearly saw clusters of steel ruins emitting green smoke in the vast Gobi grassland. , not far away, the loosely distributed enemy tanks with nowhere to hide slowly advanced slowly!

"Hey! Kill them all and avenge the chariot troops!"

The air force against the army is a one-sided massacre without pressure. This kind of experience is quite common in the Japanese flight regiment. Can't beat your air force, and can't kill the ground equipment?

Crowds of Nakajima ki-43 Oscar fighter jets dived to the ground screaming. At a height of 500 meters, two heavy machine guns imitating the American Browning's "chug chug" sprayed intermittently.

The continuous flames plowed out two streams of flying dust on the ground that exploded and splashed more than two meters high, sweeping across the top of the chariot as sharp as a knife.

Although the "Cheetah" tanks with composite armor were not injured at all, the strange screams produced when they were hit by large-caliber bullets were really frightening. Cover the Gobi, hide the tank in the middle, and within a minute, the entire sky is covered and chaotic, and nothing can be seen!

At the same time, the air defense forces scattered on the two wings opened fire one after another. Under the unified command of the omnidirectional fire control radar, dozens of machine guns and machine guns owned by more than a dozen armored air defense vehicles fired cross-fire from within a span of two kilometers in radius. A uniform grid of death was shot at high altitude, and several Japanese planes were caught off guard, their engines or fuel tanks were blown up, and they fell down with billowing smoke, and Teng Qin's new fireworks exploded "rumbling".

The "Tianqing Chariot" where Wang Zhangtang sits is as conspicuous as a lighthouse in the dark night. No matter from any angle, the hill-like car body is the priority target.A whole squadron of nine sun planes dived from high altitude in three waves, screaming frantically and heading straight for his head!

On the chariot, three 25mm six-barreled close-in anti-aircraft guns and four 40mm dual-mounted cannons were raised at the same time, and when the Japanese machine approached a distance of 2000 meters, they suddenly opened fire. The three Japanese planes at the head were blown up and disintegrated in the air, boiling and burning, and falling down!

The other six were obviously not intimidated, and they rushed forward without fear. The three close-in defense guns aimed precisely under the command of the radar, and fired several long points in a row. The piles of small shells formed a sharp and unparalleled formation 1000 meters away. The fire knife, chirping, hacking, hacking, smashing and smashing the sun machine, in less than 2 minutes, all the planes were smashed to pieces!

"That's right!" Wang Zhangtang yelled vigorously, patting his chair. It really was an all-around chariot, and he wanted to take advantage of just a few broken planes?dream!

Half of the tanks swarmed over, forming a two-layer ring protection circle around them. The vehicle-mounted large-caliber anti-aircraft guns directly under the anti-aircraft battalion opened fire one after another. The 40mm Bofors double-barreled gun with radio fuze and the 76mm single-barreled anti-aircraft gun fired together. , The formed barrage blocked a brigade of Japanese planes in the middle of the road, making it difficult to move an inch. Randomly exploded shell fragments swept across the air, hitting the Japanese planes under weak armor with holes in them, and thick smoke billowed!

"Baga! The Chinese chariot troops are very cunning! They actually deployed so much anti-aircraft firepower!"

The commander of the Japanese Army Flying Regiment screamed in anger, and had to direct the rest of the aircraft to pull up to an altitude of 3000 meters to change the direction of attack. A huge airship!

Each airship is more than 300 meters long and 60 to [-] meters wide. It looks like clouds in the sky. They fly over in groups and directly cover the sky above a small city. It looks spectacular!

But in the eyes of the Japanese Army Flying Group, this is simply the prey bestowed by God Amaterasu!Is there any flying target in the world that is better to deal with than an airship?Such a big body, with a flying speed of less than [-] kilometers, unable to turn well, unable to go up and down, thin shell, expensive body, shooting down a ship is no different from destroying a battleship!

The commander of the Japanese Army Flying Regiment yelled in surprise: "Hey! This is a military achievement brought to you! Warriors, rush up and destroy them!"

More than 30 Japanese planes turned around and swarmed up like flies. With a speed of up to 550 kilometers per hour and flexible mobility, they quickly seized the high point. The heavy machine guns aimed at the seemingly clumsy airship cluster and were about to fire!

But I never expected that the big guys in front of me are definitely not unarmed elephants, but Tyrannosaurus rex covered with thorns!In their eyes, the swarming enemy planes competed with mosquitoes. The enemy had just approached a distance of 2000 meters. On the top of the airship, which was arranged in a quadrangular cone-shaped forward formation, a hundred and ten double-mounted 20mm cannons suddenly opened fire. !

There are at least two turrets on the back of each ship, and at least two turrets on the sides. More than a dozen ships fired at the same time. The firepower density was no less than that of a group of cruisers attacking the air. The overwhelming explosive warheads instantly staggered to cover the sky with a radius of tens of square kilometers. The formation of Japanese planes that rushed to the front plunged into the fire net, and was blown up on the spot, causing heavy losses!

"Ah! The Chinese people are cunning and cunning! The airship is equipped with machine guns, and the conscience is greatly broken!"

Desperate screams resounded on the radio channel, seven or eight Japanese planes were smashed in the air and crashed down, and the second wave of ten or so planes were injured forty to fifty percent, and hurriedly pulled up and rushed into the cloud, hiding After attacking the front, he looked in shock at the big guy slowly advancing like a giant whale below, and was too scared to do more dangerous moves for a while---who knows how many ambushes there are under the surface? !

As soon as Sasaki got his head dizzy from the report of the flying regiment, he thought again and again, and painfully ordered, "The whole army withdraws from Ulaanbaatar and turns to Kerelun. This place is temporarily handed over to the Chinese, and we will come back." of!"
