Anti-Japanese War: Developing on my own, I brought back a US-equipped division

"Although the terrain on the left and right defense lines is not conducive to our attack, I think with the strength of our Imperial Army, we can definitely take advantage of the opportunity to seize the defense positions on both sides!"

"Then we will make a detour to the left and right to encircle the enemy and finally wipe out the main force of the independent battalion located in the frontal defense position."

"If everything goes well, we expect the battle to be over today!"

Qingquan Masao pondered over what Koizumi Taro said, nodded slightly and said, "I think we can give it a try too!"

Before deciding to attack the frontal battlefield, the Japanese naturally checked the situation of the defensive positions on the left and right sides.

According to Su Zheng's deployment, Liu Dazhuang's infantry company was responsible for the defensive position on the right, and Li Dabenshi's independent battalion was responsible for the defensive position on the left!

However, before the enemy launched an attack, the soldiers in the position hid.

The purpose was simple, which was to prevent the Japanese from knowing the troop strength of the defensive positions on the left and right sides.

Therefore, even now, Masao Kiyozumi and Taro Koizumi do not know the troop strength of the defensive positions on the left and right sides.

Now they thought that the independent battalion had concentrated its forces on the front defense position, and they instantly felt that there was an opportunity to take advantage of.

After looking at the battle map, Qingquan Masao quickly looked at his adjutant and said, "Immediately order Colonel Yamashita of the 22nd Regiment to arrange two battalions of troops to attack the right defensive position!"

The two Japanese battalions have a total of more than 2,000 troops, which is a lot!

"Yes!"

Afterwards, after receiving the order from Kiyomizu Masao, Yamato Yamashita immediately ordered two battalions of troops to attack the right defensive position.

The defensive position on the right was a slope and was not too dangerous.

So Masao Kiyozumi has to start from the right side.

Qingquan Masao looked at Lu Shitang and said, "Commander Lu, I hope your 4th Mixed Brigade can also arrange a regiment to test the enemy's situation on the left defensive position of the independent battalion!"

After hearing Qingquan Masao's battle deployment, Lu Shitang was so angry that he cursed in his heart!

Gou!

It’s really too stubborn!

You really don't treat the soldiers of the 4th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Army as human beings!

The defensive position on the left was very strategic, so the 4th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Army was sent to take it... This made Lu Shitang extremely unhappy.

Attacking the defensive position on the left side means that there will definitely be heavy casualties!

At the same time, it is also more difficult!

But Lu Shitang was just angry but dared not say anything!

After all, who made him a traitor and a running dog of the Japanese?

Lu Shitang nodded and said, "Okay... General, I will immediately arrange for my 33rd Regiment to go on the offensive!"

The 4th Mixed Brigade has a total of three regiments.

They are the 101st, 33rd and 18th Regiments, with a total strength of 5000 men.

Among them, the 18th Regiment is the main force of the th Mixed Brigade, with a strength of more than people, relatively good equipment and relatively high combat effectiveness.

Lu Shitang also had a backup plan. He did not send the elite 18th Regiment into battle, but instead sent the 33rd Regiment.

Then the 33rd Regiment of the th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Army began to attack the defensive positions on the left.

The terrain of the defensive position on the left is more complex, with steeper slopes and more rugged and difficult to navigate.

In other words, even if you want to walk on this slope, it would be difficult, let alone launch a charge attack.

This is also the reason why Su Zheng only arranged two or three hundred people from Li Dabenshi’s independent battalion to guard the left side of the defense line, because it is really easy to defend but difficult to attack.

bang bang bang...

Da da da......

clap clap clap...

After a while, the sounds of fighting were heard from the defensive positions on both sides.

The Japanese soldiers from two battalions of the 22nd Regiment launched an attack to the right.

Seeing this, Liu Dazhuang, who was in charge of the defensive position on the right, immediately ordered the soldiers to block the attack.

".々Hit me!"

"Soldiers, we must not let a single Japanese soldier pass through our defensive position. Fight!"

Liu Dazhuang led the soldiers to block the enemy's attack.

Da da da......

clap clap clap...

Bullets flying everywhere!

Bullets were flying.

Liu Dazhuang's infantry company was equipped with two M134 Gatling heavy machine guns. Its firepower was quite fierce, and it kept firing wildly at the Japanese devils on the slope.

Da da da......

Puff puff......

Faced with the M134 Gatling heavy machine gun with extremely high firing rate and power, these Japanese devils had no power to resist and were constantly knocked down and killed.

"Kill Jiji, shoot!"

Although it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, the Japanese still launched an attack.

The battle was fierce.

At the same time, the 33rd Regiment of the th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Army also launched an attack on the left defensive position.

The defensive position on the left is easier to defend than to attack.

Li Dabenshi's independent battalion occupied an advantageous terrain and continuously blocked the offensive charges of the puppet army.

Da da da......

clap clap clap...

"Brothers, shoot!" Li Dabenshi carried a Type 99 light machine gun and kept shooting at the charging puppet soldiers.

Puff puff puff...(Zhao De Zhao)

The puppet soldiers and traitors kept falling down one after another.

The combat effectiveness of the puppet army was relatively low, and the loss of favorable terrain meant that the 33rd Regiment made no progress at all.

So after launching two assaults, the 33rd Regiment became passive and no longer organized effective attacks.

Scared!

no way!

Charging forward is a dead end!

Fighting broke out in the defensive positions on both sides.

Pingzipo.

Masao Kiyozumi, Taro Koizumi and Riku Shido were all using binoculars to observe the battle situation on the front battlefield.

Looking through the telescope, as they watched the tank and armored vehicle troops rapidly advancing towards the defense line, smiles appeared on their faces. They felt that victory was in sight and that they would soon be able to break through the independent battalion's defensive positions and lines.

However, at this time, RPG-7 appeared.

The combat effectiveness and strength of the independent battalion's various advanced equipment can no longer be concealed...

PS: This is a description of the battle situation on the front line from the perspective of the Japanese devils... I don't know if you will find it confusing or confusing... You should be able to understand this perspective, right?

While the battle was going on in the front, the Japanese in the rear were watching.

This is done simultaneously.

However, in order not to affect the continuity of the battle on the front battlefield and the reading experience, I first wrote the plot from the perspective of the front battlefield, and then wrote the perspective of the Japanese on the front battlefield.

Understand? Free.

Chapter 303: The combat effectiveness of the independent battalion shocked the boss: It’s too shocking (the fourth update, please subscribe)

Relying on their armored capabilities, the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles continuously broke through and approached the independent battalion's first line of defense.

In the eyes of Masao Kiyozumi, Taro Koizumi, and Riku Shido... this meant that the independent battalion's defense line had been broken through in the first battle, and victory was in sight.

However, at this moment, Yang Zhihua led the artillery company's RPG platoon to appear on the scene.

It takes one shot to take down a tank or armored vehicle.

So, Masao Kiyomizu, Taro Koizumi and Riku Shido watched through telescopes as the tanks and armored vehicles were destroyed one by one by the independent battalion's artillery fire.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Silence!

Because of the angle, they could see the artillerymen in the trench carrying the RPG-7.

However, it was also the first time they had seen RPG weapons, so naturally they didn’t recognize them and were completely confused.

Seeing the tanks and armored vehicles being destroyed one after another, Qingquan Masao and others were all dumbfounded and shocked.

The Japanese and puppet army officers in the entire command center were all shocked.

I never expected that the independent battalion had such advanced anti-tank weapons.

Not only is it portable, but a single soldier can also accomplish anti-tank missions.

And the power is so strong.

A tank and armored vehicle were destroyed with one shot.

Kiyozumi Masao put down the telescope, stared at Koizumi Taro in surprise and said, "How...how can this independent battalion have such advanced anti-tank weapons? How...how is this possible?"

Koizumi Taro: "I...I don't know either."

"Look... this anti-tank weapon is more advanced and powerful than our anti-tank weapons!"

The Japanese also had anti-tank weapons.

That is the 1937mm Type 20 anti-tank automatic gun finalized in .

The Type 97 automatic cannon is a relatively large rifle. When it was first designed, it could only fire Type 97 armor-piercing shells, but the steel core of the armor-piercing shells is not very hard.

Subsequently, the Type 717 automatic gun can fire solid steel armor-piercing tracer bullets, high-explosive bullets and high-explosive incendiary bullets.

The muzzle velocity of the armor-piercing bullet of the Type 790 automatic cannon is about 220 meters per second, and it can penetrate a vertically placed 250 mm thick homogeneous armor plate at a distance of 30 to meters.

420 meters can penetrate 25 mm thick vertical homogeneous armor plate.

700 meters can penetrate 20 mm thick vertical homogeneous armor plate.

2,000 meters can penetrate 9 mm thick vertical homogeneous armor plate.

Such power is not too strong, so it can only destroy light tanks or armored vehicles. It will be useless when encountering medium tanks and heavy tanks with thicker armor.

Coupled with the oblique shooting on the tank armor, this greatly weakened the power of the Type 97 automatic gun.

Some other anti-tank weapons are more primitive, such as magnetic grenades, recoilless guns, sting mines, etc. These can only be effective when close to the tank.

But now the RPG-7 rockets of the independent battalion are incredibly powerful!

One shot can take down a tank or armored vehicle.

Although the Japanese tanks and armored vehicles were not that great... they were like paper in front of the RPG-7, which was unbearable for Masao Kiyomizumi.

Qingquan Masao roared, "Don't you know? Did you see? The equipment of the Tubalu is more advanced than that of our Imperial Army!"

"Our tank and armored forces are suffering a severe blow!"

Angry!

Masao Kiyozumi was furious when he saw the RPG-7 destroy his tanks and armored vehicles with one shot.

This is the armored force they are proud of!

Basically in every major war, as long as the armored forces are deployed, there is no line of defense that cannot be broken through.

After all, neither the Central Army, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, nor the Eighth Route Army had anti-tank weapons.
