At dawn, the early morning of January 10, 1923 fell on the land of North Korea, and the roar of artillery shelling echoed in the mountains of North Korea. The road leading to Pyongyang was relatively flat, and the Japanese heavy artillery fired fiercely at this area. Here, the Northeastern Army 23

In terms of military defense, the Army Group Headquarters had long believed that this was likely to be a key point for the Japanese army to try to break through, and they were very well prepared.

Sure enough, after the artillery battle began, the Japanese 6th Division launched an attack on the Northeastern Army along a relatively flat road. The two sides went from engagement to fierce battle in a short period of time. Faced with wave after wave of Japanese offensives,

Although the 23rd Army was under tremendous pressure, the defense line remained stable. When the 105 howitzers of the 23rd Army placed behind the defense line joined the battle, the already tragic casualties of the Japanese army began to increase rapidly, and the ferocious offensive was forced to slow down.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the 5th Army was standing ready. Suddenly, the artillery bombardment against the 5th Army began. Deputy Commander Zhuang Pengyun quickly received a call. The 2nd Battalion, which replaced the 3rd Battalion and entered the defensive position yesterday, suffered heavy casualties. The 2nd Battalion

The deputy battalion commander was killed, and the battalion commander and the battalion political commissar were seriously injured. Deputy Commander Zhuang Pengyun immediately led the 3rd Battalion, which had been withdrawn yesterday for replenishment and repairs, to rush for reinforcements.

1. On the way, Zhuang Pengyun felt a little confused. Did the Japanese army use this position as a breakthrough? Judging from the battle, there was a passage behind this position that led directly to the rear, but the passage was not wide, and the Northeast Army had also set up a passage on the passage.

Crossing the defensive line is not the best breakthrough point.

When he arrived at the front line, Zhuang Pengyun felt that he seemed to understand. While studying in the military academy, in the artillery course, the instructor told various special extreme cases in special courses, one of which was called "Heavy Artillery Cutting the Mountain".

This is the so-called extreme case, because the instructor himself did not believe that such a thing would really happen, so it was a very happy class. Zhuang Pengyun felt as if he had encountered it.

There are no particularly dangerous points in this position. Yesterday's shelling destroyed the three most threatening points on the position. The previous battalion commander and deputy commander of the 2nd Battalion were directly bombed at the key points.

No bones remain.

Now this position is unremarkable, with no other characteristics except for the height advantage. After this round of shelling, the position has been damaged and has become a weak point for easy breakthrough.

Looking at the Japanese troops who started to advance, Zhuang Pengyun quickly commanded the 2nd Battalion to join the defense. An unknown thought came to his mind, was he going to die here?

When they were feeling uneasy, the soldiers were shocked to see four strange figures appearing among the Japanese infantry. It was a piece of machinery and equipment similar to the King 8, with a track on the left and right sides of the lower half, similar to a tractor. There was a tractor at the top of the middle.

1 machine gun, firing continuously.

The Northeast Army's heavy machine guns fired over, and the Japanese troops immediately dispersed from the Iron King 81-like machine. Some Japanese troops hid behind the machine, following the Iron King 8 forward while firing continuously.

The machine gun bullet hit the Iron King 8 and was completely deflected. Although the mortar fired the shells, the Iron King 8 kept moving and missed. Moreover, the Iron King 8 did not move forward in a straight line, but turned left.

Turning right increases the difficulty of hitting.

It ran over the road and the barbed wire fence, and took advantage of its commanding position to fire into the trenches of the Northeastern Army. The firepower in the trenches of the Northeastern Army that faced the Iron King 8 was instantly wiped out by it.

This is a 'tank'. Deputy commander Zhuang Pengyun recovered from the shock and immediately understood what his troops were facing. The Northeast Army itself was also developing tanks and conducted tank training. The tanks used for training were made of wood and canvas

It is made and put on the car. It can be dealt with with stones and pencils. It is jokingly called "Putting an onion in a pig's nose - pretending to be fake".

Only when he really encountered a real tank did Zhuang Pengyun see with his own eyes that this thing was no joke. The training regulations immediately provided a response in his mind, and Zhuang Pengyun immediately ordered: "Grenadier! Prepare anti-bunker bombs! Prepare anti-bunker bombs!"

After receiving the order, the soldiers immediately woke up. After a burst of artillery ammunition, anti-bunker bullets were found. In order to break through the enemy's thick and solid bunkers, the Northeastern Army developed anti-bunker bullets, which are metal jet bullets.

However, because this kind of ammunition is still somewhat confidential, and the Northeast Army has no real bunkers to attack, the artillerymen don't have much ammunition, and they don't use it.

Seeing that the infantry had found and equipped anti-bunker bombs, Zhuang Pengyun was relieved. Then he ordered machine guns and mortars to attack the infantry following the Japanese tanks with all their strength. The Japanese infantry and tanks must not be allowed to cooperate.

Under the fierce firepower, bullets flew around the Japanese tanks and shells exploded. One unlucky Japanese tank was hit by a 60mm mortar on the top side. With the explosion, the tank shook and stopped moving forward.

~&

However, due to the transfer of firepower, the Northeastern Army's position was immediately attacked by the Japanese infantry supporting firepower. The position that had already suffered heavy damage was forced to defend itself by the Japanese army.

The other three Japanese tanks accelerated forward. Seeing that they had passed through the barbed wire fence, they rushed to the front of the Northeastern Army's trench. Fortunately, the Northeastern Army's trench was relatively wide, and these iron kings could not pass at 81. However, the Japanese tanks turned to look for an easy place to pass.

At the same time, the turret was also rotating in the opposite direction, and the machine gun continued to fire at the trenches of the Northeastern Army.

This is an example from World War I that I learned in military schools. European countries tried to use tanks to break through trenches and guide infantry to attack deeper into the position.

The infantry targeting armored weapons had already inserted anti-bunker bombs into the muzzles of their guns. As they approached these Iron Kings, 8.1 infantrymen picked up their rifles and pulled the triggers. The grenade flew out of the muzzle and flew towards the Japanese tanks at a not very fast speed. The diameter was only 6

Centimeter rifle grenade hit the tank, and the explosion was not violent.

But those tanks shook and stopped moving and shooting.

Seeing that it might work, other infantrymen quickly followed up and tried to target the third tank. At this time, the turret of the first Japanese tank whose top was hit by a mortar suddenly rotated, and the machine gun roared again, directly hitting two people whose bodies were exposed.

Soldiers of the Northeastern Army outside. Two soldiers fell in a burst of blood.

Zhuang Pengyun had just briefly reported the battle situation to the regiment commander and asked for help. When he put down the phone, he saw two soldiers who were attacking Japanese tanks fell down. Seeing the Japanese troops swarming towards this breakthrough, Zhuang Pengyun looked at him with a somewhat confused look.

The panicked 2nd Battalion Commander Li Fugui ordered: "Give me the elite of 1st squad, and you will be responsible for commanding. I will command that squad to destroy the Japanese tanks."

Upon hearing this order, a trace of shame flashed across Li Fugui's face, and he quickly said: "Deputy commander, let me take command."

Zhuang Pengyun was a little tempted, but for a moment he felt that no one in the 2nd Battalion could complete the task, so he shouted: "Stop talking nonsense and act according to my orders quickly!"

Soon, a squad of troops followed Zhuang Pengyun and started taking action. After yesterday's observation, Zhuang Pengyun had confidence in Li Fugui's commanding ability. Facing a real tank for the first time, Zhuang Pengyun had no confidence in himself.

:

Just as he was leading the special operations troops through the trenches and approaching the Japanese tanks with anti-bunker grenades, he suddenly saw two more soldiers standing up in the trench where the two soldiers had fallen and facing two nearby tanks.

Japanese tanks take aim and shoot.

Two anti-bunker grenades crossed a distance of more than ten meters at a speed visible to the naked eye, hitting two tanks one after another, terminating their actions.
