The troops of the Second Armored Division have begun to maneuver towards the flank of the Japanese army.
The armored troops of the Third Division, on the front, put a lot of offensive pressure on the Japanese army.
This time, their attack was not supported by air troops, but rockets launched by self-propelled rocket artillery regiments covered the entire Japanese position, turning their position into a sea of ??fire, and Pentax was devastated.
"The enemy launched a fierce attack on the flank, and our troops on the flank could not withstand it."
Some Japanese soldiers shouted and ran to their brigade commander.
"What?"
Their brigade commander shouted, raised his head and looked to the side, only to find that the sky was filled with artillery fire, and the light formed by the flames turned the distant skyline into a fiery red color.
"Request reinforcements from the rear and artillery support."
"yes!!"
The Japanese soldiers shouted.
At this time, behind the Japanese army, a reorganized brigade was already supporting the flanks of the Japanese position.
They had already received orders from Mijiro Xiangzu at the beginning of the battle.
After some analysis, Yoshijiro Kozu concluded that the enemy would launch a fierce offensive on the side, so he temporarily dispatched an additional brigade.
They have fewer and fewer troops on hand, and it is not an easy task for him to mobilize such a brigade of troops.
At the same time, their attack on the Eighth Route Army troops in front did not stop, but became more determined.
Meijiro Kazu has received a telegram from Seiji Hojo. Their fleet was hit by enemy air force fire dozens of kilometers away and is currently unable to support them.
In fact, even without Hojo Seiji sending a telegram, Xiangzu Yoshijiro could still see the situation on the sea level in the distance.
The place was already illuminated by flames, and the faint sound of explosions sounded like muffled thunder or the sound of the tide.
Next to Meijiro Xiangzu, Guderian frowned.
"The two aircraft carrier formations have been intercepted by enemy fighter planes. We cannot get any support from the sea.
Their situation is not good. More than half of their carrier-based aircraft have been lost. Four destroyers and one cruiser have sunk. Both aircraft carriers have also suffered varying degrees of damage.
In addition, the four battleships following the fleet also suffered some damage. "
As Meijiro Xiangzu spoke, he looked at Guderian next to him and said: "General Guderian, we don't have much time left for us. We must decide as soon as possible whether to transfer through the mountains or to continue to stay here and face being attacked at any time. Risk of total enemy annihilation.¡±
Guderian rubbed the corners of his eyes, and then said: "When will the troops starting from Shenyang arrive in the Qilihe area and launch a fierce offensive against the enemies there?"
He asked, looking at the map.
At this time, what hindered them was not only the Tashan defense line, but also the Qilihe defense line behind Tashan.
Their troops staying in Jinzhou City launched a fierce attack on the Qilihe defense line in the afternoon. As a result, except for the loss of hundreds of people, no progress was made at all.
The enemy troops on the front line of Qilihe are more prepared.
They dug a large number of communication trenches along the river bank and built a large number of fortifications.
The Japanese troops wanted to cross the river, but were suppressed by fierce firepower before they reached the river bank.
The remaining ones were lucky enough to reach the river bank, but many people did not even cross the river and were blown to pieces by mortar shells in the middle.
They mobilized two divisions from Shenyang and planned to launch an attack on the Qilihe defense line.
If the Qilihe defense line cannot be attacked, the troops of these two divisions can return to defend Jinzhou and deploy a defense line in the Jinzhou area.
However, there is not much time left for the Japanese Kwantung Army. Their defense line is in danger and they may not be able to survive even tonight.
As for their desire to break through the Tashan defense line, it is almost impossible at present.
After nightfall, they also launched two attacks on the Tashan defense line.
But the Eighth Route Army troops stationed at the Tashan defense line not only repulsed their attack, but also followed their retreating troops to catch up, catching them off guard. As a result, a Japanese brigade commander who was directing the battle in the front was also fired by the Eighth Route Army.bullets killed him on the military vehicle.
This caused the Japanese armored troops to retreat for a kilometer before stopping.
¡°If it weren¡¯t for the fact that the Eighth Route Army couldn¡¯t tell whether there were Japanese ambush and defensive positions in the dark ahead, I¡¯m afraid they would still have to continue the pursuit.
¡°It is impossible to break through the Tashan defense line tonight.
It is impossible for the aircraft carrier formations and transport fleets on the sea to help us transfer our forces. The enemy's air power is very powerful and the threat it can pose to us is too great.
We are now left with one last course of action. "
Guderian said, pointing to the mountain next to him: "This direction, we retreat from this direction."
"But what about the weapons and ammunition we carry, the large amount of baggage, and the tanks and armored vehicles?"
"Xiangzu Meijiro said this with solemnity in his eyes.
With so many tanks, armored vehicles and trucks, even if they were all blown up and not left to the enemy, such losses would still be unacceptable.
"There will always be new weapons and equipment, but once the elite soldiers are lost, it will be too difficult to train them again."
Guderian said. "General Yoshijiro Kazu, you must know how to choose."
Hearing this, Meijiro Xiangzu nodded and said: "Okay, I understand. I think let's start implementing the retreat plan now."
He had to make such a decision, the most embarrassing decision.
"Okay, but the armored forces' offensive at the front will continue. We cannot let the enemy realize that we are retreating."
Guderian said.
"I see."
With that said, Mijiro Xiangzu began to issue retreat orders.
The retreat plan was agreed upon before.
One is to retreat from the sea, but now the aircraft carrier formation and transport fleet have been blocked by the air power of the Fourth Army and cannot reach here at all.
They can only retreat from the land and enter the mountainous areas.
But as long as they enter here, they can only carry a small amount of weapons, ammunition and supplies. As for other weapons and equipment, such as artillery, tanks, armored vehicles, trucks, and a large number of weapons and ammunition, etc., they can only be discarded here.
