Chapter 329 The True Meaning of Blitz
At this moment, the six P40 fighter jets flew back into the sky after supply from Baoshan Airport and swept over again with full bombs.
Because the war has moved forward, the U.S. Air Force Air Command in China has arranged some of its air force at Baoshan Airport, not far from the front line, and it only takes 10 minutes to fly to Mangshi or Zesuncho.
After the first wave of air strikes, Jamie and his group did not stop at all and quickly drove the plane back and reloaded the missiles. The damn senior management has not yet made it clear whether they will dispatch large-scale air forces to support the Wancheng battlefield, but Tengchong needs it
Prevent the pretext of maintaining a certain amount of air pressure.
He deeply understood that he had only 6 fighter jets here, and if they wanted to support the frontline to the greatest extent, they could only fly more and do more, and one person would complete the work of two people.
"Wisker, let's shoot all the shells before returning to sail. The Chinese soldiers below are about to break through this river defense line."
Jamie was driving the plane to hover in the sky, and he found that the Japanese were already in decline, and friendly forces were only short of a single kick to crush the other party.
"No problem, let's see who can shoot more muds!" Wisk turned the corner and turned a big shot straight towards the Japanese position.
After the aviation bombs were thrown, there were still 4 12.7-caliber heavy machine guns on each plane that could be used as dive attack weapons. The Japanese who lacked anti-air firepower could only become rabbits fleeing everywhere.
The battle situation was in an instant, and the infantry in the rear arrived one after another. They brought more artillery and the chariot camps that had been firing for more than ten minutes continuously increased their firepower instead of decreasing. For a moment, the north bank fell into endless explosions.
In the meantime, the Japanese could no longer carry out effective counterattacks.
The vanguard of the Engineering Corps also arrived at the battlefield. Without saying a word, they immediately started to build a floating bridge with tools.
In addition to the bridge work, the Engineer Regiment also took out a lot of kayaks to let the troops cross the river forcibly. This was the remaining river crossing tool when he was hitting the Nantianmen, and it was once again handy.
"Monk, take advantage of the Japanese beings being bombed and hurried to take people to cross the river with me!"
"Company Commander, let me lead the team to your team. Your injury... Otherwise, let's rest." Monk Zhou felt a little embarrassed when he looked at his left arm hanging on his chest.
But Mo Youcai glared at him and said furiously: "Stop talking nonsense, don't you just have one arm? Can't I shoot my right hand? Quickly organize people to cross the river!"
"Yes! Everyone is organizing their equipment and preparing to board the ship!"
The monk had no choice but to act on orders. A row of soldiers quickly boarded various kayaks, and the engineers' soldiers rowed and ferried quickly approached the other shore.
Fortunately, the water flow of the Wanding River was not fast and relatively narrow. They quickly paddled to the north shore in the rain of bullets. Although there were still some Japanese soldiers fighting to the death on the shore, they could no longer stop them from landing.
"Look for cover on the spot, guard the river bank, and beware of the Japanese counterattack!"
Monk Zhou and his vanguard immediately occupied the fortification group along the river, and he didn't need to continue fighting. As long as he guarded the land now, more and more comrades would come across the river later.
...
"Captain Chen, just sent a report from the front line, the battle in Wancheng has basically ended?"
On a jeep, Fang Jingyao asked Chen Jize with some confusion. However, the latter was concentrating on looking at the map in his hand and ordered that he did not hear the inquiry from the person next to him.
"Captain Chen?"
"Oh? Sorry, I just thought about something. What do you think of?" Chen Jize came to his senses and stared at Fang Jingyao without blinking. He still had a more respectful attitude towards this powerful man.
"I mean the battle on Wanding has ended? Why are the troops still advancing westward?" Fang Jingyao was not angry and asked patiently again.
It is around 6 pm now, and the battle in Wancheng lasted only more than two hours, and it was over in the air and the ground forces coordinated. Although there were still sporadic resistances in some places, it was just a disease of scabies and itchy.
,Their defense is doomed to fail.
Although Fang Jingyao was a little surprised by the sharpness of the troops' offensive end, what really surprised him was that the main force of the chariot battalion and the third regiment continued to advance westward.
Logically speaking, shouldn’t we stop and make some plans before making plans? After all, some enemies on the battlefield have not been completely eliminated. If the troops cannot coordinate, it will be a disaster.
"Today is a sleepless night. Commander Fang, have you heard of the blitzkrieg war?" Chen Jize asked back.
"Blitzkrieg? The tactics used by the Germans against Poland?" Fang Jingyao said casually,
"The essence of blitzkrieg is speed, surprise, and concentration. This time we went west to Myanmar, we tried it out according to the meaning of the genital seat, and made a not very decent imitation."
Seeing Fang Jingyao's confusion, Chen Jize closed the map and continued to explain slowly:
"This tactic makes full use of the fast advantages of aircraft and tanks to defeat the enemy by surprise attacks. First, let the air force implement breakthroughs when having air supremacy. Armored forces use their speed and radio advantages to encircle the enemy, occupy roads, bridges and other key points.
The territory cut off the route of the encircled enemy troops and quickly advance deeper behind the enemy."
"So the chariot battalion doesn't have to worry about those enemies who are surrounded and are still fighting stubbornly, because other troops will follow up quickly and divide and annihilate them before the enemy organizes counterattack capabilities, causing the enemy to collapse completely and completely eat them."
Speaking of this, Chen Jize showed a hint of fanaticism in his eyes, and he said extremely excitedly: "This tactic is really a product that is ahead of this era. I have never heard of wars when I was studying in the United States that I can fight like this...
”
"It's just a pity that our troops cannot do as they are like the German army. The environment and hard power are not allowed. But you have seen it too. Just imitation. The Japanese only eat dirt in front of this devastating offensive formation.
, the losses of our soldiers can also be minimized."
The basis of blitzkrieg is mechanization, with the premise of air supremacy, which is mainly reflected in the coordinated cooperation of air, tank and step.
The tactics are about finding the breakthrough point on both sides, and the air force and artillery open the gap, the armored cluster enters the gap and expands the results of the battle, and the mobile infantry follow up to find the two wings of the breakthrough.
5-10 minutes after the Air Force opened the gap, the armored cluster then attacked, followed by the mobile infantry. It quickly destroyed the enemy's command center, communication hub, and transportation hub, and trapped the enemy in a situation of blind and deaf, and cooperated with the frontal troops to quickly encircle the enemy's main force.
Infantry Group.
Of course, such excellent tactics have very high requirements for the quality of soldiers and logistics capabilities of the implementing troops. They also need to ensure air superiority at all times. They are by no means easy to use with tanks and aircraft.
"This is a good way to win by speed and defeat the enemy with strangeness. No wonder the seats and seats let all trucks go to the front line. I just don't know if the soldiers can guarantee a high-intensity marching."
After hearing these words, Fang Jingyao thought about it carefully and agreed with Liao Mingyu's tactics, but also raised some questions.
"People stop cars and cars are not stopped. Commander Gao also agreed to send a large number of vehicles to cooperate with the operation. The troops' offensive routes are almost always along the Yunnan-Burma Highway. This is our advantage. I can guarantee that the third regiment's troops will not have any problems.
, I just worry about whether other troops will…”
Chen Jize explained, but from his words, he could feel something in it.
"Don't worry, the Engineer Regiment will definitely keep up with the third regiment. It's your chariot battalion, don't think that we are building bridges and paving roads too slowly." The experienced Fang Jingyao couldn't hear the meaning, and he also guaranteed that he could not help but also.
I didn't forget to make a little joke.
"Hehe, Captain Fang was joking."
After receiving a positive answer, Chen Jize smiled and saw him looking at the sky in the west that was reddished by the sunset, with a sense of firmness in his eyes.
"The task of the chariot battalion is to make continuous breakthroughs. The ammunition supply truck and fuel truck I arranged are already on the road. They will arrive in Nankan tonight and are expected to launch an attack on Nankan at 12 a.m. If the situation goes well, the US military will tomorrow
