Devil's Army

Chapter 294: Annihilation of the Japanese Reinforcements

When the four Japanese tanks saw that the tanks coming towards them were also theirs, they thought that their reinforcements had arrived and were extremely happy.

The mobile force of the First Army easily encircled the four tanks of the Japanese. Then one tank entangled the Japanese tank, and the other tank bombed the Japanese tank.

The Japanese tanks finally realized their mistake and tried to escape, but it was too late. They were already tightly caught and entangled by the tanks of the First Army.

The First Army's mobile force finally won the second unequal battle with the Japanese tanks with a score of 0:4.

At this time, the artillery and tanks of the Japanese reinforcements were destroyed. Logically, the Japanese commanders should have considered retreating, but they still stubbornly believed that their Imperial Japanese Army was invincible.

They also mistakenly thought that their troops were nearly twice as strong as the Devil's troops. So they ordered their troops to attack the Devil's troops on both sides continuously. The only two mortars and grenade launchers in the troops cooperated.

The Japanese mortar shells and grenade launcher shells accurately landed on the positions of the second and third battalions, causing considerable trouble to them.

What surprised the Japanese was that the First, Second and Third Battalions, which had retreated after just a fight with you, withstood their not very fierce artillery attack and did not retreat.

The second and third battalions dispersed their forces, waiting for the attacking Japanese infantry to get closer.

The Japanese were only about 100 meters away from the positions of the second and third battalions. The commanders of the second and third battalions ordered their troops to open fire to block the attack.

Fierce bullets pounced on the charging Japanese infantry like fire snakes. The Japanese infantry were shot and fell one after another, but the Japanese behind them did not stop, but continued to rush forward stepping on the corpses of their companions. The whole front of the position was filled with the stench of blood.

At this time, the 4th Brigade had completed the comprehensive encirclement of the two groups of Japanese devils.

Brigade Commander Wang sounded the clarion call for the general attack, and more than 6,000 soldiers attacked the enemy from all directions.

At this time, the Japanese commanders realized that the devil troops surrounding them were far more than 1000 people. While they asked for help from the main force, they relied on trees and rocks to block the devil troops.

Wang Zhuangfei saw that the trapped Japanese were still like stones in a toilet, smelly and hard. He ordered the troops to suspend the attack and surround the Japanese without attacking them.

The Japanese commander held off the attack of the devil's army for them and could wait for reinforcements, but at this time he heard bursts of artillery shells whistling.

The 150mm howitzer shells, small artillery shells, and mortar shells from the Second and Fourth Brigades hammered at the Japanese in the encirclement one after another.

The Japanese in the encirclement had nowhere to hide and could only hide behind trees and rocks and pray that the god of fate would favor them.

One 150mm grenade can create a hole the size of a small pond.

The shelling stopped, and before the Japanese in the encirclement had time to catch their breath, the tanks of the mobile force and their infantry rumbled towards them again.

The Japanese soldiers, who suffered heavy casualties, under the command of the commander, tried their best to break out along the way they came.

The first and second battalions of the first regiment responded calmly. The light and heavy machine guns in their battalions opened fire at the same time. Two heavy machine guns and nearly twenty light machine guns roared, harvesting the charging Japanese.

A large number of Japanese corpses fell in front of the positions of the second and third battalions.

The Japanese attack finally wore out, and Wang Zhuangfei sounded the clarion call for the general attack at the right time.

At this time, the Japanese commander Yoshino was in despair. He took out his command knife and prepared to commit suicide.

A sniper from the First Army shot the samurai sword out of his hand.

Captain Yoshino endured the pain and stretched out his left hand to pick up the command knife that had fallen to the ground.

At this time, his regiment headquarters had been surrounded by soldiers of the First Army. Seeing this, a soldier shot the command knife on the ground and knocked it away.

The remaining Japanese officers in the regiment looked at Captain Yoshino. If they resisted, they would be killed. The commander lowered his head and said nothing. He could not commit suicide heroically. He would die anyway.

The soldiers of the First Army rushed forward and captured all the officers and guards. Captain Yoshino also became the highest commander of the Japanese captured by the First Army after a long battle with the Japanese.

The battle was over, but the Japanese reinforcements had not yet arrived. Wang Zhuangfei ordered the first company to escort the Yoshino regiment commander and more than 50 prisoners back to the tribe, while he went to Zhangwu County to check the situation.

The Japanese in Zhangwu County still used the people of Zhangwu County as human shields, occupying the houses on the other side of the street and confronting the First Army.

Wang Zhuangfei believed that the Japanese reinforcements had been annihilated and the purpose of teaching the Japanese a lesson had been achieved, so he asked Leng Feng for instructions: leave one regiment of troops to garrison outside Zhangwu County, and the others to withdraw from the fight.

Leng Feng agreed, so Wang Zhuangfei left a regiment to garrison outside Zhangwu County to prevent the Japanese reinforcements from Rehe from suddenly surrounding the 1st Regiment of the 2nd Brigade in Zhangwu County. All other troops retreated.

The tanks of the mobile unit also towed back the five destroyed enemy tanks to the tribe. If these five tanks were also repaired, their mobile unit would have 32 tanks.

The 1st Regiment of the 2nd Brigade sent a battalion to continue confronting the Japanese in Zhangwu County, and the other two battalions were also stationed outside Zhangwu County.

The strange spectacle of two armies confronting each other in one county continued in Zhangwu County.
