Huahu Town is located at the junction of Ezhou and Huangshi, and now it has become the first line of positions for the Japanese army in Ezhou to resist the independent division.
In fact, this situation is also what Zhou Weiguo and others are willing to see, the more soldiers the Japanese recruit and the more resources they expend, the more miserable Japan will be.
The Japanese had a relatively complete industrialization and a high degree of industry, while China at this time was still a large agricultural country, and in this regard, Japan had the upper hand.
In fact, Japan's advantage in the degree of industrialization has only made up for some of the gaps between the population and China.
They wanted to occupy the whole of China, learn from the Mongol Yuan and the Manchu Qing, rule China in their own hands, and then slowly make China their own, and then, dominate Asia.
Fang Shengli held the binoculars and looked at the battle ahead, to be honest, his own tank gave the devil a huge threat, but he also had to guard against the devil with anti-tank weapons, but, overall, the attack was still very smooth, more than 90 tanks, the impact on the devil was great, just like more than 90 moving turrets.
Coupled with the soldiers following behind the tank, the devil was also beaten for a while and couldn't raise his head.
In terms of firepower, the devil is not comparable to the independent division at all.
Tongshan County Zhou Weiguo also received a telegram to take Huangshi, smiled, and waited for Liu San to find out the terrain and come back.
However, thinking of the location where Fang Shengli should be in Huahu Town at this time, and looking at the location of Liangzihu District, Zhou Weiguo hoped that the devil could partially outflank Fang Shengli's rear.
In this way, he can outflank these devils in the same way, and even eat them.
Wuhan "Order, the 201st and 202nd Divisions, starting from the Liangzihu area, outflank the rear of the independent division."
Okamura Ningji frowned, he had just received a telegram from Ezhou, the independent division had begun to attack Huahu Town, you know, Huahu Town and Liangzi Lake are also sixty or seventy miles apart, to outflank, one day is enough.
The two divisions, plus the strength of the Ezhou side, were enough to wipe out the more than 20,000 troops of the independent division.
The report said that the independent division had a large number of tanks, so let the air force take off from Wuhan, and at such a close distance, they could fight a wave first, and when the planes of the independent division came from Nanchang, they would finish the fight.
Thinking of this, Okamura Ningji's brows relaxed a little, and there was a little smile on his face, he wanted to take down the 20,000 soldiers of the independent division to give this battle a good start.
"Hi" The soldier listened to the order, turned around and left.
Huangshi doesn't have much defense, which is actually arranged by Okamura Ningji, so that the enemy will quickly advance to Ezhou and have the opportunity to quickly surround the enemy.
In Huahu Town, Li Wuzheng followed the rear of the Second Tank Regiment with his soldiers and launched an attack on the devil's position.
As soon as he started the attack, Li Wu felt the pressure, the position on this side, the devils built it very strongly, they were all built with cement, and the soldiers were not very able to cause damage to the devils, but it was the devils, and there were anti-tank guns, which made the tank regiment also surprised.
However, after thinking about it, it is also clear, after all, Japan's industrial level is much higher than that of their independent divisions, and it is not surprising that there are anti-tank guns, but when the devil anti-tank gun hits a T34 tank with one shot, something strange happens, and the T34 tank is not affected too much, and it is still moving forward.
The frontal armor of the T34 tank with a thickness of 45 mm and a 32-degree bevel is equivalent to 130 mm, and the side armor with a 49-degree bevel is equivalent to 100 mm.
Such frontal armor directly led to the fact that in 1941 any artillery equipped with German tanks could not penetrate at a distance of 500 meters, and only the German 88 guns could block it.
"Nani anti-tank gun actually has no effect to put the card energy, continue to shoot" "Hi" For a time, several 37-mm anti-tank gun shells hit a T34, but when the smoke and flames cleared, there were still no major problems with the tank, only a little armor damage.
"How could the tanks of the Yaluchina people have such good armor protection" A Japanese soldier was simply red-eyed, and it just so happened that the tank that was set on fire by the devil fired a shell in this direction.
"Boom" The T34 was armed with a 76 mm F34 Type 42 cannon, and the F34 cannon could penetrate 69 mm of homogeneous steel plate at a distance of 500 meters and 61 mm at a distance of 1000 meters.
The F34 cannon can also fire high-explosive and fragmentation shells against soft targets, so it has the ability to support infantry attacks.
"Nani" Japanese soldier Shaozo didn't react, and his face was covered with blood from the explosion, and even his head was dizzy.
The Japanese soldiers next to the "captain" hurriedly moved this young man to the side, and just now the shell just fell in front of a few of them, but their captain reacted a little slower and did not hold his head to hide, and now his face is full of fragments, which is miserable.
"Sanhua-kun, what now?"
"Send the captain to the rear, and tell His Excellency the Captain, about the captain."
"Hi" Li Wu was also startled by the devil's anti-tank gun at the beginning, but as a result, his own tank seemed to be fine, you know, just now at least five or six shells hit the tank in front of him.
"Ge Laozi, it's amazing" After Li Wu fired a shell from the tank in front of him, he also aimed at a devil machine gunner, pressed the trigger, and the devil machine gunner fell down in response.
Although most of the devil's position is made of cement and is very strong, if the devil wants to attack, he will also need vision.
Li Wu was glad that fortunately, the devils did not build this place into a fortress, otherwise, if they wanted to take this position, the price they would have to pay would be too great.
Even so, they are struggling right now, and compared to the Yellowstone side, this side is simply too hard.
"Nene," Li Wu scolded, "Wang Er Mazi, come here" "Three masters, I'm here" "Do you have any thoughts on this, the position of the devil?"
"What do you think?"
"Idiot" Li Wu patted Wang Er Mazi's head, "That's how to beat down the devil's position" "Uh-oh."
Wang Er Mazi nodded hurriedly, his eyes rolled for a moment, and then said, "Three masters, don't we have a tank, follow the tank and throw the grenade after waiting for the closer?"
Li Wuyi slapped his forehead, "Yes, why didn't I think of it, Wang Er Mazi, you asked the brothers to prepare grenades, and when they were almost 30 meters away from the devil's position, everyone threw the grenades out to me."
"Yes":
