The command center of the 10th division was indeed located in a courtyard in the village. There were also a large number of antennae set up there.
However, the commander of the 10th division was not here. He was in Fengtian, more than 100 kilometers away.
The upper echelons of the Kwantung Army were holding a high-level military meeting. Major General Hirose Shousuke and the Chief of Staff were there yesterday, so they weren't here.
The two regiment commanders were guarding the camp.
Faced with the sudden bombardment and bombardment, even though the Japanese were well-trained, the camp was in chaos.
Especially after the attack from the sky.
The Stuka dive-bomber pulled up from 800 meters in the air, and a 250KG heavy bomb whistled down.
"Boom…"
The buildings below were destroyed by the explosion, and the members of the command center who could not escape in time were wiped out.
Only the regiment commander of the 8th regiment managed to escape because he came out to command the troops.
After the brain was destroyed, the Japanese soldiers in the huge camp became headless flies.
However, at this moment, the artillery shells were still falling.
The aim of the artillery group was to kill the Japanese army with artillery shells.
South Liaohe River railway bridge.
As an important strategic location, the Japanese army had set up an independent garrison here, with a total of more than 800 people.
This railway bridge played an important role in the border defense army taking over the entire Liao Province, so it became the first ground battle to recover Liao Province.
If he wanted to take down this railway bridge, he had to be fast.
They must not let the Japanese react and blow up the railway bridge.
This heavy responsibility was placed on the Shooting Sun armored train and the tank battalion of the 3rd Infantry Division.
The Shooting Sun armored train was traveling at a speed of 40 kilometers per hour on the Yingkou branch line.
When the Artillery Group started firing, the Shooting Sun armored train was less than three kilometers away from the South Liao River railway bridge.
"Puchi Puchi."
South Liaohe River railway bridge, the Japanese army independent first garrison brigade.
"What train is that?"
At this time, the 1st Squadron of the Japanese Independent Garrison Brigade had just finished changing shifts when they saw the Shooting Sun armored train approaching.
At this moment, everyone was attracted by the Shooting Sun armored train speeding over from afar.
The squadron leader took out his binoculars and looked over. His eyes almost popped out.
"Baka, this is an armored train."
Armored train?
The Japanese army was no stranger to this thing. They had it themselves, and it was parked in Fengtian City.
It was obvious that this armored train was not from the Empire, but from Jinzhou.
"Quickly inform the brigade that the Chinese have dispatched an armored train and are requesting backup.”
"Order the engineers to set up explosives and blow up the railway bridge. We must not let the Chinese occupy it.”
He knew that it was too late to set up the explosives now, but he could not just sit back and watch.
However, the Shooting Sun armored train was not slow.
Just as the 100-plus Japanese squadron was moving back and forth on the railway, they were less than a kilometer away from the railway bridge.
"Dong dong dong"
The two 25mm cannons turned their muzzles and fired at the crowd.
High-explosive bullets exploded in the crowd, turning it into a living hell. Flesh and blood flew everywhere.
The two 7.62mm caliber machine guns at the front of the car also began to whine.
If not for the fear of destroying the railway, the 4 76mm tank guns and 2 Katyusha rocket launchers would have been enough to wipe out the Japanese squadron in a short time.
"Creak!"
As the armored train approached, the firepower became more and more intense.
The Japanese squadron only had a little over 160 people, and they lacked heavy weapons. How could they possibly block the armored train?
In just a few minutes, the Japanese garrison was almost wiped out by the firepower.
After taking care of the Japanese squadron, the armored train drove past the railway bridge.
Their target was the camp of the Japanese First Independent Garrison Brigade, which was one kilometer away.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh…"
When the armored train discovered the reinforcements of the 1st Garrison Brigade, it immediately fired a rocket at them.
A total of 24 rockets shot into the sky, carrying a white glow. The flames covered everything.
"Boom boom boom…"
If the artillery bombardment was continuous, then the rocket artillery bombardment was dense.
In less than 10 seconds, 24 shells that were comparable to large-caliber heavy artillery exploded.
One could imagine how miserable the Japanese Independent 1st Garrison Brigade was.
With the arrival of the 3rd division's tank battalion, this short battle came to an end.
After the South Liaohe River railway bridge was taken down, a major obstacle for the 2nd Armored Division of the First Army to reach Fengtian was completely removed.
"Immediately send the 2nd Armored Division to the camp of the Japanese 10th Division.”
After taking down the South Liao River railway bridge, Huang Haitao immediately issued the latest battle order.
The chaos caused by the bombardment was only temporary.
Therefore, if the First Army wanted to take down the main force of the 10th division at a lower price, it would be impossible.
He had to take advantage of this short gap.
Speed was the only thing that was pursued in a blitzkrieg battle, not to mention that Sun Liren had already grasped the essence of it.
After the 2nd Armored Division successfully crossed the railway bridge, they headed straight for Tian Village at full speed.
This was also the Japanese army's Panshan camp, where the 10th division was stationed.
