Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

The first column's offensive came swiftly, and Gao Qing was good at seizing opportunities.

Taking advantage of the chaos in the Japanese 71st Regiment, all available armored forces were deployed to expand the results of the battle.

The elite companies and battalions of the column took the initiative to infiltrate the Japanese interior. The comrades had been holding back for the entire winter and their morale was full.

They boldly advanced towards the enemy headquarters, with their assault firepower being extremely fierce.

There is no main attack, every company is the main attack.

The mortars fired continuously into the chaotic positions, and the bang bang bang sound of the bombing rang in the ears of the Japanese.

They took advantage of the situation to break through several positions and crazily attacked the Japanese in the trenches.

Grenades were thrown continuously at the Japs' heads, followed by submachine gun fire.

The dense firepower made the Japanese lose their way.

Colonel Kobayashi Hengyi was already very panicked. He had more than 4,000 troops at his disposal, but it was difficult to withdraw them.

If you rob Peter to pay Paul, the entire regiment's defense line will collapse, but if you don't get support from other battalions, your headquarters will be pushed down by tanks.

Listening to the tanks approaching, the tracks made a clattering sound, and the bones of the Japanese soldiers were rolled in and chewed up.

The armored troops aimed directly at the Japanese colonel's headquarters and advanced all the way without stopping for a moment.

The tank guns fired continuously, piercing through the supporting Japanese soldiers and blasting them into the sky.

The assault team that rushed over with the tanks were firing indiscriminately with PPSh and Dapanji rifles.

The firepower of the submachine guns was fierce, forming a local fire suppression. In addition, the tanks pressed forward, and the enemy lacked anti-tank weapons. The Japanese relied on suicide charges in an attempt to resist the armored advance.

The scene was tragic, with blood flowing. The comrades pressed forward at high speed and taught the Japanese a lesson with the most ferocious offensive.

The Third Column was located, and artillery fire was opened simultaneously, attacking the position of the 23nd Regiment of the 72rd Division.

Zhang Dabiao's column had a large number of troops, which directly involved a large number of Japanese and puppet troops. The elite troops in Nishiyama Fukutaro's hands must be the 23rd Division.

The garrison troops and puppet troops stationed with the division had very poor combat effectiveness, barely considered third-rate, and a little pressure was enough to overthrow their positions.

The dense artillery fire made the Japanese dare not raise their heads.

Ding Wei had more than a hundred artillery pieces, more than the 23rd Division, and the supporting firepower formed covered a large area.

The entire front line was in a precarious situation, and the third-rate forces of the Japanese and puppet troops were simply unable to withstand the offensive.

"General, the 71st Regiment Command has lost contact, and we need to mobilize troops to assist."

Fukutaro Nishiyama was so confused that his head exploded. The good confrontation situation turned into a disadvantage in an instant.

After losing air superiority, Ding Wei's flying squadron could press down on the 23rd Division at any time.

"Order all units to hold the offensive, dispatch the 72nd Regiment to move closer to Chifeng, and send the search regiment to provide support."

Only the elite troops of the 23rd Division could withstand the pressure, so he had to send the veterans of the Type A Division to fight on the front line against the artillery and tanks of the Eighth Route Army.

The gunfire was intense and Zhang Dabiao's attack became more fierce. He put all the 120 mortars in his hands into battle.

The large-caliber mortar is very powerful. One shot from it is almost as powerful as a howitzer.

24 heavy mortars pressed forward, in groups of 2-3, forming 10 flexible artillery fires.

To provide artillery support for the 10 elite companies under Zhang Dabiao, dense mortar shells fell one after another, and the explosion fragments were incredibly powerful.

Wherever the comrades rushed in, the shells fell in front.

In the past, the Japanese would just bombard indiscriminately with artillery fire, and then charge forward after the bombing.

Now the situation is reversed. The Eighth Route Army's artillery shells cover the positions and cooperate with the assault troops to press forward.

Like a sharp knife, it easily tore through the enemy's position.

The sound of gunfire continued and the Third Column's offensive was uninterrupted. Zhang Dabiao had been waiting for the opportunity to fight. As soon as the chance came, he wished he could stuff his hat into the enemy's mouth.

"When the charge is sounded, all troops will charge forward and twist off the Japanese's heads."

"I don't care whether the enemy is a Type A division or the elite of the Kwantung Army. We are targeting their elite troops."

"Elite troops are interspersed, artillery fire is pressed in, and they are fired directly at the heads of the devils."

The second wave of bombing of Wucheng arrived, and it pressed fiercely towards the Chaocheng area from the direction of the third column's attack.

The roar of the bomb explosion shook the earth.

After the planes flew low, they strafed the fortifications. The machine guns had great penetrating power, and even those hiding behind the fortifications could be penetrated by the strafing.

Fighter planes wreaked havoc on the Japanese positions.

The Third Front's air force was completely destroyed, resulting in the 23rd Division being unable to call for aircraft support. The 100-pound bombs penetrated the ground and blew up deep pits.

The Japanese soldiers at the center of the explosion were blown to pieces without even seeing their clothes.

Finally, the Japanese also felt despair.

There were bombing raids by planes overhead and artillery fire from afar, followed by a strafing attack by light machine guns and submachine guns.

No matter whether you are a Type A division or how good your shooting skills are, in this situation, you can only pray for better luck.

If any lethal weapon touches you, you will lose limbs at best, or even die at worst.

The so-called old devils?

The so-called Type A division was equally vulnerable.

The only thing that is worthy of praise is the fearless onboard charge.

The Japanese casualties increased sharply, and the 23rd Division struggled to hold the front line and hinder the offensive of the two columns.

"Asshole, a Kobayashi Tsuneichi is going to destroy my 23rd Division."

Fukutaro Nishiyama was filled with frustration and fury. He paced around the command center but could not think of a good solution.

They continued to ask for help from the Third Front Army, arranged field artillery regiments, and strengthened the defensive line.

News from the front line said that the 23rd Division could no longer hold on.

This division was the elite division of the Kwantung Army, and when fully staffed it was far superior to other Type A divisions.

This division was prepared for a decisive battle with the Far Eastern Army, and it could be said to have undergone a complete transformation after the Battle of Nomonhan.

Whether it was the flower of the army or the elite of the Kwantung Army, they were all beaten into a daze by Ding Wei.

The artillery fire continued to advance, engaging in a evenly matched artillery battle with the Japanese artillery.

But as soon as the Japanese artillery opened fire, they would face pressure from the sky. The bombers hovered nearby, looking for the Japanese field artillery positions. Once they found them, they would immediately launch bombing to destroy them.

After suppressing the Japanese army's supporting firepower, the soldiers were like fish in water and charged with greater momentum.

The Japanese on the front line suffered continuous defeats and kept shrinking their defense lines. They were forced to retreat to Chaoshi and Chifeng, where they were swept by two columns.

The puppet Manchukuo army and security forces mixed in the 23rd Division were even more vulnerable, which was completely the performance of a stupid teammate.

They were penetrated and broken through one after another, causing the front lines to collapse one after another.

The Japs had originally built a number of fire fortresses to block the enemy, but due to the continuous defeat of the Japanese and puppet troops, all these fortresses were abandoned.

The tanks pressed in, firing one shot after another, killing all the Japanese in the fortress.

Fukutaro Nishiyama was defeated. The entire front line was in jeopardy, so he had to make a decisive decision to abandon the front-line positions and withdraw troops across the board.

The sound of gunfire gradually subsided, and after the Japanese invaders retreated, Ding Wei's two columns won the war.

Everywhere you look, you can see a large amount of Kwantung Army combat supplies, as well as abandoned wounded and defeated soldiers.

The wounded puppet soldiers panicked, threw away their guns, covered their heads and ran back to the direction of the Kwantung Army.
