Previous page Return to Catalog Next page
- The fierce battle was in full swing. Hu Guodong, who served as the temporary commander of the 2nd company, was carefully aiming at the Japs about one class ahead. Unknown to him, his comrade ten meters away on the right had already died, and a crawling Japanese soldier had already crossed his fighting position. The black muzzle was aimed at him.
At this critical moment, his bugler Xiao Cai rushed back from the rear and saw the Japanese troops who were about to shoot.
His correspondent has died. Xiao Cai, the bugler, temporarily served as his correspondent. The only weapon in his hand was a trumpet. Seeing the Japanese's actions, Xiao Cai instinctively rushed forward.
Without a gun, his trumpet is the only thing that can handle it. He kept shouting: "Company commander! Attention!" while trying to hit the Japanese soldier on the head with a trumpet.
The muzzle of the gun aimed at the company commander changed its direction, and when the trigger went off, Xiao Cai fell in a pool of blood, still holding the trumpet tightly in his hand.
The Japanese were killed, but Xiao Cai could never play the sweet trumpet for the company again.
This kind of heroic behavior can be seen everywhere.
The injured squad leader Liu Xiaoyao fired all the bullets, rolled up into a ball with three Japanese soldiers with the last grenade in his arms and disappeared in the firelight; the soldiers at the handover position of the 1st and 2nd companies who had run out of ammunition and food saw that they had always been interested in him. The caring squad leader died, and numerous Japanese soldiers swarmed in unstoppably. He held back his tears and gestured to the rear. The comrade who was fifty meters away from him and was responsible for communicating with the artillery array understood that it was "towards the enemy." I'll shoot" means
In the crack of artillery fire, a group of Japanese troops broke through the frontal defense line one after another. Dozens of people in the front have already died. If this Japanese army rushes behind, the direct threat will be the artillery array - everyone with guns must go to the front line. Got it! At this critical moment, Li Hongliang, who was watching the battle, shouted: "Those who don't have guns, use those of those who have died in the battle! Stop this enemy!"
Seeing that there seemed to be a breakthrough, the Japanese troops nearby also rushed here desperately, and the situation was extremely tense. As a last resort, Li Hongliang used his reserve force to block the attack head-on. The artillery also quickly dispatched two cannons to fire several rounds at the Japanese reinforcements. The leading Japanese troops who were unable to break through the line of fire were finally eliminated when surrounded by the People's Army, but the People's Army also lost more than a dozen comrades.
With this kind of consumption, the death toll on both sides is basically one to one.
"Several such dangers have occurred in succession, and there are many touching stories.
"However, Li Hongliang felt that it was necessary to change his tactics. If it hadn't been for the counterattack of the 4th Mobile Company just now, the frontal defense line would have been lost. Although about a large brigade of the Japanese army was wiped out, our own side was already at the end of its tether. If Japan were to launch a desperate attack like it did just now, hundreds of its own people would be finished.
Watching the match, Aso's mood was like a roller coaster, rising from the valley to the peak, and then sliding back to the valley. He almost succeeded in a powerful attack, but failed in the end and couldn't help but stamp his feet. He was disappointed that a large team was attacking so slowly.
But when the smoke cleared, it was discovered that no one from his large team had returned except for some seriously injured people.
No one comes back!
A brigade had suffered all casualties. No matter how ruthless Aso was, he had to consider whether this style of play was right.
The frontal firepower is too strong. For such an artillery position, failure to knock it down will be a great obstacle to this combat plan. Thus, another strategy that the Japanese army was good at: outflanking began.
Japanese soldiers can run, which is not inferior to the Eighth Route Army guerrillas who were good at this in history, and even better than American soldiers. They wore leather boots with lambskin linings, which did not hinder their off-road capabilities. Since the frontal pressure is too great, it's up to you to fight the scattered infantry in a ring!
This move is indeed powerful, and the shortcomings of the small number of artillery blocking troops are immediately exposed. Not only did the men and horses have to be dispersed, but the few artillery pieces were also forced to disperse in directions and angles, leaving less support for the infantry, which mainly relied on artillery support.
Li Hongliang knew the Japanese soldiers' strategy when he saw them approaching his sides and rear from a distance, but all he could do was shrink the defense line, and there was no other way.
The three companies all retreated to a mile away from the artillery array, forming a ring to guard the central artillery. They could not retreat even a step. If they retreat, the Japanese soldiers' spears can shoot through the gunners. When the cannons become useless, they will all be killed.
The reserve team also went into battle. In addition to some replenishment to each company, they also had to hold one direction. Although it has been compressed somewhat, the situation is not much better than before.
The two captains stood side by side, and they both had a premonition of the upcoming deadly battle. After suffering heavy casualties, Japan still surrounded them. That was a rhythm determined by a battle. At this time, they were very calm.
Li Hongliang said to Liu Yanji: "More than a thousand of us have killed more than a thousand Japanese soldiers, which is enough. Later, every time we kill one more, we will make a profit. I am just worried that the Japanese soldiers will continue to come."Come here one after another, what happened to the 7th and 8th Divisions in front! "At this time, he actually still cares about the team.
how's it going? The experience of the two divisions was no better than theirs!
The 7th Division that entered Seoul encountered the fiercest and fiercest battle since the Korean War, and also suffered the greatest losses. The opponent is the 1st Division, which is known for fighting tough battles. They are waiting for work, and more importantly, they have artillery.
With 36 75mm mountain guns, 24 81mm mortars, and 36 combat anti-aircraft guns, they had an advantage against the lightly-armed 7th Division.
Being caught off guard, the vanguard suffered heavy casualties. The Japanese army took revenge on them for their defeat in the battlefields of Kanto Prefecture and northern Korea. Ten minutes of artillery fire caused an entire battalion to disappear!
That¡¯s not all. The 1st Division used its main force to not only suppress the entire 7th Division in Seoul, but also cooperated with the 3rd and 4th Divisions to cut off the connection between the two divisions of the People¡¯s Army. The 7th Division fought hard in Seoul, while the 8th Division suffered a devastating blow under the attack of three brigades and two artillery regiments.
At this critical moment, as the commander of the army, Jixing was no longer able to effectively command the troops. He just ordered the officers of the 8th Division who could be found at all levels to lead their troops to the north!
To the north, the 3rd and 4th divisions are continuously dispatching troops for reinforcements, threatening to cut off their retreat. Not only for encirclement and annihilation, but also to reduce pressure on the troops occupying the Imjin River in the north.
Three stages of blocking and offensive battles started separately. The main force of the 3rd Army suffered heavy casualties under the attacks of three elite divisions of the Japanese army. The army headquarters, which was already in chaos, was unable to organize an effective system at all.
In the civil war, the 3rd Division, the old foundation of the 3rd Army, only fought one battle with the Huihui Army in the northwest, and still bullied the smaller forces with more troops; later, after occupying Wuhan, they stayed in the northwest and basically never encountered a decent war.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????¡
Disobeying the military order, I wanted to steal a chicken, but I didn¡¯t expect that even the rice was eaten completely. There is no artillery, and there are fewer people than the opponent. The key is to fight alone. If it takes a long time, it is not how much the loss will be, but that he may become the first senior officer of the People's Army to be killed or captured by the Japanese army since the Korean War.
"Compared with the rapid progress and illustrious military exploits of other brother troops, he still has to consider how to explain his combat plan in a military court.
