Anti-Japanese War: Red Alert Base, I am the Power

Chapter 57



Xie Ning took Yingkou within three days.

Jiang Fan was not surprised by this, but it was reasonable.

The Right Route Army has three divisions of troops. If they can't take down a small Yingkou, he can disband the Red Alert Corps.

Taking Yingkou directly cuts off the railway line between Lushun and Shenyang.

He will take back Lushun sooner or later, but not now.

As a fortress city, Lushun requires a large number of troops and a large amount of heavy firepower to take it down.

But we must also be on guard against the little devils here.

We can't let them dig out the back of the Right Route Army.

The 101st Infantry Division was sent directly to Yingkou by Jiang Fan.

Their main task is to guard against the Japanese troops in Lushun.

This infantry division was formed by recruiting new soldiers before.

It has a total of three infantry brigades, one artillery brigade, one combat support brigade and one logistics support brigade, with a total strength of 15,000 people.

The weapons and equipment are basically on par with the main division.

Equipped with a small number of tanks.

Each brigade has a tank company under its jurisdiction, and the entire division is equipped with a total of 54 Guardian main battle tanks.

It is mainly composed of various cars and trucks, and it is a motorized infantry division.

It is not that Jiang Fan does not equip them with better equipment.

It is because these soldiers have a low level of education.

The advanced equipment technology level of the Red Alert base is still relatively high, and there are certain requirements for education.

Not to mention anything else, it takes a long time to train how to drive.

Many technical positions and officers are elite soldiers of the Red Alert, accounting for one-sixth of the proportion.

Besides, this equipment configuration is not to mention being placed in China.

Even if it is placed abroad, it is top-notch.

Although this infantry division has not been trained for a long time at present, it is no longer a mob.

With the blessing of equipment advantages, it already has a certain combat effectiveness.

Now he is short of troops, and he has to support the Guangxi faction.

So he decided to pull out the 101st Infantry Division first.

If a unit wants to grow quickly, fighting is essential.

This is also a good opportunity.

And they don't have to stay for long.

After the formation of the mountain infantry division is completed, he will continue to recruit troops to avoid any unexpected situations.

Jiang Fan did not expect that the 101st Infantry Division, which was not very prominent in the Red Alert Corps, would be of great use in the next battle.

Sending the 101st Infantry Division over can also solve the worries of the right-wing army.

Let them focus on Shenyang.

Anshan and Benxi are their next targets.

These two places have already trained the defense line into one, and the 10th Division and the 39th Mixed Brigade are stationed there.

Compared with the battle on Xie Ning's side.

The progress of the left-wing army commanded by Ling Liang was a little slower.

Xinmin is located on the west side of Jinzhou, only more than 50 kilometers away, and it also has a railway connection.

Shenyang can support Xinmin at any time.

The 14th Division responsible for defending here is also a permanent division with a total strength of more than 20,000 people.

The 14th Division took the Liuhe River passing through Xinmin as the core defense line and built a large number of defensive fortifications.

The railway bridge was also closed, and all the bridges upstream and downstream were blown up.

Although the Liuhe River is not very large, with an average width of only about 300 meters and a depth of more than two meters.

But it also hindered the offensive of the armored forces.

If you want to attack Xinmin, this Liuhe River is the biggest obstacle.

Ling Liang was not in a hurry to launch an attack. He continued to bombard the Liuhe defense line for three whole days.

In particular, the 12 Red Alert cannons played a big role.

The Japanese Liuhe defense line positions were blown to pieces.

Most of the exposed fortifications have been cleared.

She adopted a steady and steady offensive method.

Although there are no amazing tactics, it is precisely this simple and unpretentious offensive method that can bring out the greatest advantage of the Red Alert Corps.

This advantage is naturally the advantage in equipment.

During these three days, even the division commander Matsuki Naoaki was bombed.

It also caused considerable casualties and psychological pressure to the Japanese defenders.

More than 3,000 soldiers have been killed and injured in these three days.

It was almost a full-strength regiment.

It was not until the fourth day that Ling Liang issued the order for the general attack.

Everything was under her control.

Only by using artillery fire to clear most of the fortifications on the Japanese defense line could casualties be reduced in the next river crossing operation.

Of course, there was another reason.

She was waiting for Xie Ning's progress.

The attack on Shenyang was still a little short of the left-wing army's strength.

It had to wait for Yingkou to break through.

After Xie Ning attacked Anshan and Benxi, he could hold back more than 30,000 Japanese troops of a division and a mixed brigade.

In this way, the offensive rhythm could be synchronized.

The air force also became the main force in this river crossing operation.

Yingkou had a huge advantage, so there was no need to send out the air force.

But this river crossing war was different. The air force was almost out in full force.

Three MiG-10 jet fighter squadrons, a peacekeeping bomber squadron, and an Invader attack aircraft squadron, with a total of more than 200 aircraft.
