The ambush at Wuqiao Ridge wiped out more than 7000 people in a brigade of devils, which is truly an unprecedented victory!

This battle immediately caused a sensation in all war zones across the country.

For a moment, the great victory at Wuqiaoling became a great joyous event for the whole country. The war was reported on the front pages of major cities, and tens of thousands of people took to the streets to tell the news.

"Extraordinary, extraordinary, great victory at Wuqiao Ridge, great victory at Wuqiao Ridge!"

Newspapermen in major cities shouted on the streets, and the newspapers were quickly swept away by the people, and some people even set off firecrackers to celebrate.

In this ambush, the security regiment suffered more than 300 casualties, the independent regiment suffered more than 500 casualties, the 358 regiment suffered more than 700 casualties, the 321 regiment suffered more than 400 casualties, and the 386 regiment suffered more than 400 casualties.

Being able to annihilate the devil brigade was actually not because of how clever the ambush tactics were. Without air support and artillery suppression, the security regiment would not have been able to wipe out the enemy with such a small cost of casualties.

As soon as the news was published, the North China Front Army of the Japanese Army learned that the 14th Brigade had been wiped out. The commander of the Devil’s Front Army was furious and furious. .

What made the little devil most angry was that there was a photo in the newspaper, a group of devil officers kneeling in front of Li Hong, the devils in the photo looked like they were kneeling and begging for mercy, the appearance of the devil officers was very funny and ironic.

"Ba Ga Lu, Li Hong, it's this Li Hong again, I must kill you!"

Seishiro Itagaki was furious at the headquarters, beating the conference table vigorously, and angrily picked up the newspaper paper and tore it into pieces.

Chapter 2: A Dead Horse as a Living Horse Doctor

() The Wuqiao Ridge ambush was not only a battle victory, but also a strategic victory.

The 14th Infantry Brigade was wiped out, and the devil's battle plan was completely disrupted. Because of the shortage of troops, the enemy's deep penetration, roundabout and large encirclement tactics could only be aborted.

Of course, every city and county in Shanxi is a piece of fat for the Japanese army, and the little devil will not be willing to fail if he is frustrated on the battlefield.

That night, the Devil's 5th Brigade held an emergency military meeting overnight to readjust its combat deployment.

After several hours of meeting and discussion, the Japanese army decided to suspend the attack on Gucheng County, Jincheng, Linfen and other places.

The little devils attacked from east and west. The attacking troops were the devil's 1st infantry brigade, the 113th regiment and the 143rd regiment. The total number of enemy attacks reached more than 15000 people.

In less than two days, the Japanese army approached the Luliang area.

During World War II, the Commander's Department dispatched troops and increased troops to the Lvliang area and various counties and towns. The two sides launched many small-scale battles, and finally the two sides became a stalemate.

……

Five days later, the security team was stationed at the outskirts training ground.

"boom boom"

Several tanks and armored vehicles made harsh roars.

Soldiers from the Fourth Battalion of the Security Regiment are conducting coordinated offensive operations with chariots on the training ground.

At present, the security regiment has set up a mechanized battalion, which is Chen Lin's fourth battalion.

Of the five infantry battalions in the Security Regiment, only Chen Lin had studied foreign infantry coordination tactics, so these chariots and tanks could only be allocated to the fourth battalion for training.

It's just that, after all, Chen Lin was just a book on paper, and he didn't understand the many essences of infantry coordination tactics.

The chariots cleared the way ahead, and the soldiers held weapons in their hands, maintaining an echelon tactical formation, and followed closely behind the tanks and armored vehicles.

It is not difficult for smart soldiers to learn to drive tanks and armor, but it is not so simple for soldiers to cooperate with tanks.

In modern warfare, armor and tanks are indispensable combat vehicles, because the impact of the tank is very strong, and the tank can quickly break into the enemy's position and open a breakthrough.

There are generally several tactics for infantry and chariots to cooperate in combat. The front of the chariot leads the infantry to charge, the chariot supports the infantry, the infantry and chariots cover alternately, and the infantry and chariots attack the position together...

Of course, depending on the terrain and battlefield conditions, the combat formations of infantry coordination tactics and attacks will also be adjusted and changed.

Armored vehicles and tanks are very difficult to parry in open plains where they can push forward in a straight line, but their weakness is that they are not suitable for fighting in narrow streets and alleys.

"Keep up, maintain the offensive formation, you all keep up with the tanks and armored vehicles for me, pay attention to the front, don't patronize the tanks, damn, everyone is afraid of being run over by the tanks?!"

Li Hong shouted with a loudspeaker in his hand, and when he saw a soldier running slowly, he would go up and kick a few times.

At the beginning of the training, the soldiers of the security regiment trained well. However, after a while, the formation of the soldiers became scattered. Many soldiers were afraid of noise or being run over by tanks.

In the past two days, several soldiers have been injured during training, and many soldiers feel a little shadowy.

It is not a matter of one day for infantry and chariots to develop a tacit understanding in combat. Besides, Li Hong is not a person who is eager for success.

"Brother-in-law, the soldiers have been training for several days. It seems that the soldiers' coordination tactics in infantry and combat have not improved much. Many soldiers are afraid of tanks and armored vehicles." Chen Lin looked at the scattered soldiers on the training ground, and he felt a little helpless.

"It's okay, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, the training should be gradual." Li Hong thought for a while, and said, "How about this, let the soldiers treat the chariot as their daughter-in-law, sleep with the chariot every day, and slowly cultivate and cultivate their feelings. It will take a long time. Naturally, I am not afraid of chariots..."

"Brother-in-law, can this method work?"

"Now you can only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor, and you will know if it works."

The method proposed by Li Hong was read in the tank armor manual, and he didn't know whether it would work or not.

"The training is entrusted to you, let the brothers pay more attention to safety!"

After speaking, Li Hong left the security regiment station on a motorcycle and went to the flight base.

In the Battle of Wuqiao Ridge, the battlefield advantages played by bombers were obvious, and he was deeply aware of the importance of aircraft operations.

With the support of air firepower, any side on the battlefield can attack overwhelmingly. Therefore, Li Hong pays special attention to air power.

At the end of the battle that day, Li Hong asked people to take the wreckage of those little devils back to the flight base for disassembly.

Regardless of the scorched wreckage of the aircraft, there are still many usable parts, and some parts are damaged, and they can be operated after repairing them.

Li Hong went directly to the maintenance warehouse, where the base pilots were busy working around several planes.

"Tuan Zuo, you are here." The flight squadron leader Yang Chen saluted.

The flight base performs combat missions, as well as the usual maintenance of the aircraft. Li Hong handed over all the affairs of the base to Yang Chen.

Li Hong glanced at the unpainted planes and asked, "Yang Chen, how is the new plane assembly going?"

Yang Chen pointed to the plane next to him and reported, "Reporting, I disassembled an engine from the devil's old plane and installed it on the new one. At present, the assembly of these three planes is basically completed, and there is no problem with the safety test of the parts. In a few days, these aircraft can begin test flights."

Li Hong walked around the plane and the two of them sat on the side, slowly communicating about the modification of the aircraft.

Now the flight squadron of the security regiment, plus the 3 planes that will be born soon, has a total of 6 planes. Li Hong decided to change the two planes with good engines into fighter jets.

The Japanese army in Shanxi has always occupied the air supremacy, and the squadron can hardly be said to have any air supremacy, and the two sides cannot compete in air combat.

To put it simply, the little devil's plane can bomb anywhere on the Shanxi battlefield to carry out combat missions, but the squadron has nothing to do with the little devil. This is the gap in military strength!
