Jagged Germany

Chapter 1337: This is a trap (ask for a monthly ticket)

"Da da da!"

??The heavy machine gun on an armored vehicle fired wildly, knocking down the island army soldiers one by one.

?? Not far from this armored vehicle, a 'Black Panther' tank is slowly advancing. The tank gun was aimed at a machine gun fire point.

?? "Boom!" After a cannon rang, the fire point of the machine gun was blown away.

??The German 23rd Army assembled an armored division and two mechanized infantry divisions to launch an attack, which was very powerful. Under the attack of these troops, the 31st Division of the Japanese Army had no chance of stopping it for a short time.

?? There were crippled troops fleeing everywhere. Even the brave island army lost its courage under the attack of the German army. After all, this way of fighting was something they had never seen before, and they hadn't even thought about it.

??The hatch behind the half-track armored personnel carrier opened, and heavily armed German soldiers got out of the vehicle one by one, and began to clear the surrounded island army with the assistance of armored vehicles and tanks.

??Major General Paul, the commander of the 23rd Armored Division, has issued an order, hoping to resolve the battle within two hours. Even if it cannot completely eat the 31st Division of the Japanese Army, its main force must be wiped out. After all, there are still several divisions of the island army, waiting for them to attack!

?? "Go to hell, German!"

??A brave island soldier rushed towards a Tiger tank with a cluster grenade in his arms. However, before rushing to the front of the tank, he was sieved by the infantry following the tank.

?? I have to admit that the soldiers of the Island Army are very brave, especially when the animal nature in their bones is aroused. They dared to launch a suicidal attack on the German armored forces that had completely taken advantage.

??However, their attack method is very unlikely to succeed. German tanks and armored vehicles are not alone. There are infantry fighting alongside tanks and armored vehicles. While tanks and armored vehicles provide protection and fire support to the infantry, they are also protected by the infantry and prevent the enemy from getting close.

??Under the crazy attack of the German armored forces, the 31st Division of the Japanese Army could not hold on at all. A large number of troops were interspersed and surrounded by the German army, dispersed, and the command fell into chaos. Even so, not many people in the island army surrendered. After they are in a desperate situation, they will continue to fight. Of course, the consequence of this is nothing more than being completely annihilated by the German army.

??Lieutenant General Sh?zo Sakurai, Commander of the 28th Army of the Island Army, and Lieutenant General Honda Masai, Commander of the 33rd Army, met early in the morning. There is no doubt that Kinabatangan is not an easy city to conquer. The German troops stationed here are not so easy to destroy. The difficulty of this battle has exceeded their expectations, and it has completely turned into a tough battle. After two days of fighting, they have already paid a lot of losses. Even launching a night battle did not take advantage of the slightest advantage. This made Lieutenant General Sakurai Shozo and Honda Masai very anxious.

?? You know, the troops they command at this moment are the main force of the Lanyin front army. Except for the two independent mixed brigades stationed in Siena Port and Lahad Datu respectively, the rest of the troops have been dispatched. If this fails to capture Kinabatangan and eliminate the German troops entrenched there, they will be helpless in the next battle.

?? "Sakurai-kun, what can you do?" Lieutenant General Honda Masai asked.

?? Lieutenant General Sakurai Sh?san shook his head, and now he is helpless.

?? "Could it be possible that we still have to continue to attack? Even if it is paid for by human life, it has to be valuable! It can't be lost like this for nothing!" Lieutenant General Honda Zhengcai sighed.

"The firepower of the Germans is so powerful that they have a great advantage in defensive operations. It is indeed very difficult for us to eliminate them without strong enough artillery fire or air support. "Lieutenant General Sakurai Sh?san also looked helpless.

??Although, after the island country declared war on Germany, the senior generals of the island country army knew that Germany would be the biggest opponent they encountered. However, only after they actually fought against the German army did they realize that the German army was stronger than they imagined!

?? "Your Excellency, Commander, something is wrong!" Major General Yanpan Haoxiong suddenly broke in.

??Lieutenant General Sakurai Sh?san couldn't help but frowned. He didn't like to see such rude behavior. However, with outsiders present, he couldn't say much.

?? "What's wrong?" Lieutenant General Sakurai Shozo asked coldly.

??Major General Yanpan Haoxiong of course knew that he had offended Lieutenant General Sakurai Shozo, but how could he care so much at this moment!

"Your Excellency, the 31st Division was attacked by the Germans. The Germans mobilized tens of thousands of people, hundreds of tanks and a large number of armored vehicles to storm the 31st Division's position. Now the 31st Division is still struggling Support. However, I’m afraid it won’t last long. General Kotoku Sato has sent a telegram requesting tactical guidance.” Major General Iwanan Gokuma reported.

?? "What? How is this possible?" Lieutenant General Sakurai Shozo was stunned.

?? "Is this news true?" Lieutenant General Honda also looked shocked.

?? "Yes, Your Excellency Commander. The Germans have launched a counterattack." Major General Yanpan Haoxiong said.

"Baga! Trap! This is a trap set by the Germans. The reason why they voluntarily evacuated Siena Port and Lahad Datu is to lure us into being fooled! I didn't expect them to secretly gather superior forces here." Sakurai Sho The third lieutenant general suddenly realized.

?? Lieutenant General Honda Honda also thought of this. Judging from the performance of the German army at Kinabatangan, they did not look like a severely damaged unit at all. However, they couldn't figure out why the German army had to voluntarily withdraw since it was not severely damaged. Now it seems that everything can be explained. The Germans have only one purpose in doing this, and that is to attract more island armies and then eliminate them in one fell swoop.

?? "Damn the Germans, their appetite is really big! They want to wipe out the main force of our entire Lanyin front army! Are they not afraid of being overwhelmed?" Lieutenant General Sakurai Shozo's face was quite ugly. He was shocked and angry at the thought that they had fallen into the trap of the German army. He knew that if they failed this time, they would really die without a place to bury them.

??"Sakurai-kun, the German counterattack has already begun, we must prepare early. Otherwise, we will really be eaten by the Germans!" Lieutenant General Honda Masai had a serious face.
