Chapter 466: Too Fierce, Ding Wei’s Troops Are Too Fierce

The main force is marching at a very fast speed, and the first principle of infiltration is to be fierce, fast and accurate.

The troops attacked from the flank and directly penetrated the forehead of the Eagle 3rd Division.

In the marching column, there were three main regiments of the enemy, as well as another brigade of the British Army. Once bitten by a snake, you will be afraid of the rope for ten years. The soldiers of this brigade kept staring at the Eagle Sauce troops.

I'm afraid that the other party will sell out teammates again.

They even had to intersperse their deployment with the enemy and retreat in turns.

Gunshots were heard in front of him, and a group of soldiers appeared on the top of the hill and opened fire at the moving convoy.

Heavy machine guns fired at the car and mortars fired at the front of the car.

The loud explosion gave the Eagle 3rd Division a bad feeling.

A group of soldiers appeared right in front of their retreat.

This unit was a battalion of the 59th Army. It ran the fastest, penetrated the most fiercely, and was the first to get ahead of the enemy.

During the previous infiltration operation, because of the slow speed, the main force of the New First Army was lost, which made Ding Wei angry.

From then on, whenever it came to combat, Gao Qing required his subordinates to be efficient.

In terms of the speed of penetration, it is definitely at the top of the army.

We must never let the enemy escape from the encirclement again. This is a shame, a huge shame.

A mere battalion, you think you can stop the retreat of an entire division?

Major General Saul chuckled and immediately ordered a battalion of troops, with enhanced firepower, to blast through the obstruction and open up a retreat route.

When giving the order, he deliberately looked at his watch and asked his men to end the battle within an hour.

Four tanks and four howitzers were added to strengthen the firepower of the attacking forces.

A battalion of American-equipped troops launched a fierce attack on the blocking point.

As soon as the firing started, another force appeared on the flank, and the second lightly armed force responsible for infiltration appeared.

This force had only one company's worth of troops, but it resolutely launched an offensive against the Eagle 3rd Division.

Even if we have to wipe out all the troops, we must keep these foreign devils here.

Amid the gunfire, the third team and the fourth team appeared one after another.

The soldiers had tired looks on their faces and their legs were numb and without feeling, but they were determined to fight.

Use your body to block the opponent's tank.

The squad leader was wearing a demolition grenade and had no better option but to let the tank run over him and detonate the grenade.

The men and the tanks were blown up together.

More and more soldiers poured into the battle line, a battalion, a company, a regiment, a division.

The combat effectiveness and penetration capabilities demonstrated by the 59th, 56th and 57th Armies far exceeded those of other troops.

They held on to the Eagle 3rd Division and refused to let go, then launched a full-scale general offensive.

It was impossible to take the position in an hour because more and more soldiers appeared and quickly launched a counterattack.

From the defensive side, to the combat side.

The mortars were in position, firing bang bang bang.

The shells fell into the center of the crowd and the center of the convoy, causing even greater chaos.

It's over. Major General Saul realized that something was wrong. One of his divisions was stuck in a ravine.

There is no village in front and no shop behind.

"Can the Sun Never Sets Brigade still hold our retreat? Should we break out?"

As soon as the major general finished speaking, the other colonels shook their heads, saying that it was not going well.

The enemy had already begun to be on guard, and had dispersed their troops and mixed them with our own.

I want them to be the last one to leave, but it’s not easy to communicate.

You can't cheat people continuously. Just cheat them once. Why are you expecting someone to cover you every day?

It's really shameless.

The sporadic gunfire further confirmed the bad situation. With the backward transportation capacity of Longguo, the ability to transport heavy weapons was poor.

But when artillery was put into the battlefield, the sound of the artillery was like deadly thunder.

This means that their few heavy weapons were put into the battlefield.

Ding Wei's troops were an exception. They were able to make full use of the captured tanks. There were many armored soldiers, drivers, and gunners in the troops.

They used the captured weapons and equipment immediately, as they had long been tired of using American weapons and equipment. They used the captured American howitzers, rocket launchers, and heavy machine guns with extraordinary proficiency.

There were also Sherman tanks. Sun Desheng captured a tank company, which were the tanks given to the enemy when the Americans were supporting the Russians.

During the armored troops training, they focused on practicing the tanks of both the United States and the Russians. The more formal ones were the T34, Sherman, and BT-7. The first two were the main tanks in the past two years, and the latter was a tank that Ding Wei could produce.

American equipment is not unfamiliar, and the troops have a strong ability to absorb it.

Hundreds of captured vehicles greatly improved the mobility of heavy weapons.

Only when the artillery fire is pressed forward can it be easier to achieve the effect of penetration and provide the most sufficient artillery fire coverage to small, isolated and helpless enemy forces.

Battalion- and company-sized troops cannot resist the firepower coverage of the howitzer regiment. Even if they have complete fortifications, they will be knocked down bit by bit by the artillery.

The sound of cannons whistled, and the unique sound of howitzers blasted through the valley.

The general attack of the covering troops, quickly eat the 3rd Division of the Eagle Sauce Army. How can a mere st Marine Division satisfy Ding Wei's appetite? If he eats another division, he can barely eat half full.

The troops have more and more experience in encirclement and suppression. Large-scale combat requires coordination, military discipline, and execution capabilities.

Gao Qing personally supervised the encirclement of the three armies.

Looking down from above, it looked like three giant black dragons opened their huge mouths and swallowed the Eagle Sauce 3rd Division, whose foreheads had the word death written on them.

Reconnaissance planes were sent out in an attempt to search for a suitable breakout route over the battlefield.

At the same time, they requested air firepower from the headquarters to cover the main force's breakout and retreat.

Hundreds of bombers are needed to fight their way out with napalm bombs.

Air power is one of the few advantages of the Eagle Sauce. Planes quickly appeared over the battlefield and dropped solid napalm bombs downwards.

The flames burned fiercely and the flames lasted for a long time.

Everywhere you look, you can see traces of burning petrol bombs.

Retreat, retreat, retreat.

The young soldiers lost the idea of ​​resistance and were eager to withdraw from the battle as soon as possible. Under the cover of aircraft, they broke out to the south.

The two wings of the breakout were frequently blocked.

To describe it in one word, only one in ten will survive. Out of ten people charging to break out, only one or two can escape successfully.

After all, they had more than 300 tanks and hundreds of artillery pieces. If they concentrated their firepower and pushed in one direction, it would be easy to break the encirclement.

But that was all they could do. They were entangled by Ding Wei's three armies, and after escaping one encirclement, they immediately fell into another.

During the breakout process, the Eagle Sauce troops lost a large amount of combat supplies and their main combat forces, which greatly weakened the troops' combat effectiveness.

How much combat effectiveness do the remaining logistics personnel, medical personnel, and communications personnel have?

The main combat forces quickly perished, with some dying, some being injured, and some retreating.

The outcome between the two sides was determined from the beginning. Major General Saul was unwilling to accept this, as he was facing a US-equipped division with powerful firepower.

It was just a shameful arrangement to break out.

The number of troops that broke out was very small, with a force of more than 3.2 at full strength. Now there are only a little over left.

The 29th Brigade of the British Army has been destroyed, directly weakening more than 6000 people.

During the breakout, they suffered heavy losses and were repeatedly surrounded and infiltrated. More than 5000 soldiers were injured to varying degrees.

More than 2000 people surrendered and laid down their weapons, and more than 7000 were killed.

A simple confrontation weakened the Eagle Sauce 3rd Division.
