Chapter 509 Bloody Battle 4 Draws (2)
54th Division Headquarters,
Looking at Yang Daokun standing at the door, Division Commander Geng Baoren's eyes were filled with tears. He suddenly ran over.
"It's really you!? Daokun!!!"
"It's me, the host!" Yang Daokun also looked at Geng Baoren excitedly.
The two hugged each other tightly.
"After we parted at Nankou, I thought I would never see you again! Captain!"
Geng Baoren's face was full of gratitude.
"If you hadn't risked your life to save me, I would have definitely died there. By the way, Daokun, what happened? How are you doing now?"
Yang Daokun sighed and handed over a cigarette.
"Captain, I'm joining over there!"
Geng Baoren's expression changed instantly, and he didn't even take the cigarette.
"Then why did you come here? Go back quickly and I will pretend that nothing happened tonight!"
In fact, he was mentally prepared. How could the headquarters send someone over without notifying him in advance!
But when these words came out of Yang Daokun's mouth, Geng Baoren was still in great pain. The brothers who hadn't seen each other for many years became mortal enemies on the battlefield as soon as they met!
Yang Daokun lit a cigarette for himself, exhaled a long puff of smoke and said,
"Commander, you once told me that civil war is meaningless. China is so poor because we are always at war!"
"Dao Kun, there's no need to say more. Once you're in the martial arts world, you have no choice but to do what you want. We each serve our own masters! If you come here and try to persuade me to surrender, that's absolutely impossible!"
"Hey, Brigade Commander, I was rescued from the Japanese POW camp by a man called Yan Wang. He led our group to fight the Japanese in the Northeast and annihilated hundreds of thousands of Kwantung Army. The one who came this time is his second disciple, Ding Shan. Brigade Commander, if you resist, you will have no chance of winning. We are equipped with 150mm heavy artillery, and Siping's fortifications are simply a pile of tofu dregs!" Yang Daokun was not discouraged and continued to persuade.
"King of Hell? I remember seeing the internal report about this person when I was in the army!" Geng Baoren murmured.
"That's right, the King of Hell's methods are very powerful. He has only taken action once so far, which was the battle in Xi'an County. If our attack was blocked in Siping, he would definitely come here in person!" Yang Daokun said!
Geng Baoren's face suddenly turned pale. Some time ago, in the Battle of Xi'an, the 207th Division, including the division commander, suffered heavy casualties, and the entire division had been disbanded. This battle also caused the national army in the Northeast to completely abandon the offensive and began to shrink their defense!
"There was also the battle of Dehui. The heavy artillery unit under Yan Wang also participated in the battle. Have you heard about it? Under the attack of 150 heavy artillery, Dehui's fortifications were completely vulnerable. Brigade Commander, I have followed you for so long, I really can't bear to see this tragic scene!" Yang Daokun continued to persuade!
Geng Baoren's face became more gloomy. As a senior general of the National Army, he certainly knew what Yang Daokun said! Defending Siping was a dead end!
Yang Daokun said again,
"Now Yan Wang has established an arsenal in Mulan City. We can produce bullets, shells, and cannons ourselves. The tanks will also be rolling off the production line this year. The jeep I drove was produced by the Mulan Arsenal.
Brigade Commander, Yan Wang has talked to us before. His target is the Americans. He is not interested in the civil war. The Nationalist Army is completely dependent on American aid. The logistics are difficult to guarantee. It is a situation that is bound to fail!"
Geng Baoren was silent for a long time, then sighed and said,
"I know everything you said, but I am a division commander after all. I can't surrender in the face of a battle!"
Yang Daokun immediately said,
"Commander, this is not surrender, this is mutiny. I asked you before I came here. If you mutiny, you can still be your commander!"
Geng Baoren paced back and forth in the room, holding out his hand.
"Give me a cigarette, let me think about it!"
During the puppet Manchukuo period, Siping was a city where Chinese and Japanese lived together. A railway that crossed the city from north to south passed through the city. The east side was inhabited by Chinese people, with narrow alleys and low houses; but there were more than a dozen large concrete factories! The west side was the Japanese residential area, with reinforced concrete buildings everywhere, each of which was a natural bunker, easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Since the Kuomintang army captured Siping last year, they have transformed Siping, carried out large-scale construction, and built many bunkers in the streets and alleys!
Its daybreak,
To the west of the city, in the quince forest,
More than a thousand fully armed soldiers quietly waited for the order to attack.
Wang Yaohui, commander of the 1th Regiment of the 2nd Division of the 5st Column, looked at his watch from time to time, and the hour hand slowly pointed to seven o'clock!
As a green flare flew into the air,
The bombardment began.
This time, the headquarters dispatched four direct artillery regiments, including a heavy artillery regiment, two mountain artillery regiments, and one field artillery regiment!
In the telescope,
Wang Yaohui was somewhat surprised to see that in the west of Siping City opposite, hundreds of black smoke columns were rising and various targets were subjected to fierce artillery bombardment. He was a little puzzled. He remembered that the division commander had said yesterday that the north gate would be the main attack. How come it seemed that all the shells were hitting the west gate!
Wang Yaohui roared,
"set off!"
The soldiers rushed out like little tigers!
The first target of the attack in the west of the city was the slaughterhouse in the suburbs.
There was a water moat outside the slaughterhouse! The walls and three bunkers had been blown into a pile of ruins by 150mm heavy artillery.
The commando leader, the first battalion commander Pan Hu, and his men quickly came to the edge of the moat. The moat in front of them was about 5 meters wide. The day before yesterday, scouts had disguised themselves as ordinary people and conducted a scour. The water depth was only about 1 meter!
The soldiers jumped in one after another, but when they reached the middle of the trench, they found a wire mesh. It was difficult for people to exert force underwater, and after struggling for a long time, only a dozen people got through.
Some soldiers were even injured by the barbed wire!
Wang Yaohui’s 5th Regiment is the top main force regiment of the 80st Column. Pan Hu’s st Battalion also has deep traces of Jingpo Lake. % of its battalion and company commanders are veterans from Jingpo Lake!
The combat effectiveness of the entire battalion is very strong, and all weapons and equipment have been replaced with American weapons and equipment from the Mulan Arsenal!
Seeing that the water trench was impossible to cross,
As a veteran who had experienced many battles, Pan Hu reacted quickly. He quickly ordered the entire battalion to detour northward along the moat. After running a few hundred meters, they finally found a small path.
The soldiers launched an assault into the city along the path!
There were several houses beside the path, which had been destroyed by the bombardment.
However, in the ruins, a black gun barrel stretched out and violently spewed out fire snakes towards the soldiers!
Fortunately, the soldiers were arranged in groups of three, with each group at least 20 meters apart.
Soldier Wang Ping's team consists of three people, one STG44 automatic rifle, one Garand semi-automatic, and one M3 submachine gun. Wang Ping himself also carries a Panzerfaust rocket launcher!
Hearing the gunshot, the three men all fell to the ground. Wang Ping looked up and quickly locked onto the position of the enemy's machine gun. He quietly crawled over, carrying a rocket launcher and firing a rocket.
With a loud bang, the machine gun went silent!
Wang Ping gestured to the other two.
The two soldiers immediately took out their grenades, rushed over and threw them into the ruins.
Taking advantage of the explosion, the three of them quickly rushed over from three directions and surrounded the opponent's position.
Wang Ping didn't feel relieved until he saw the other person's body!
