The TV series "Armageddon" has entered the stage of the Battle of Huaihai, so which enemy is more stubborn and can fight the Battle of Nianzhuang commanded by Su Yu to annihilate Huang Baitao's 7th Corps and the double-stacked battle of annihilating Huang Wei's 12th Corps commanded by Liu Bocheng?
The core unit of the 7th Corps was the 25th Army, which was formed by the Central Army for the team, and the first commander was Wang Jingjiu of the First Phase of Huangpu. Later, the reorganized 40th Division of the Tax police corps was allocated to the 25th Army. This division also became the strongest division of the 25th Army.
Judging from the operational characteristics, Huang Baitao has two characteristics, one is fierceness, and the other is toughness. The 108th Division, the 148th Division and the 40th Division under the 25th Army. In Su Yu's evaluation, it is "the middle upper in the Xuzhou system". It was not the most powerful of the enemy forces in Xuzhou. However, Huang Baitao, a man who does not play a slippery head battle, is rare among the enemy army. For example, Li Tianxia, as well as Qiu Qingquan, and Hu Lian, these people are all dishonest in the slippery head battle. I like speculation the most. For example, in Meng Lianggu let Li Tianxia reinforcements, he was a military-level unit, and finally confused out a battalion.
Huang Baitao's training ability is relatively good, and the night combat melee and shooting ability of the 25th Army is relatively strong among the enemy troops. Because most of Chiang Kai-shek's army is not good at night combat and close combat. At the same time, the ability to train field fortifications for a long time can quickly complete the construction of field fortifications in a few hours.
Judging from the process of campaign development, the fight against Huang Baitao's corps was actually relatively smooth in the early stage. First of all, when Huang Baitao's corps began to move, the troops had not yet had time to fully assemble. In this chaotic stage, our army annihilated 2 divisions of the 100th Army of the 7th Corps. The 25th Army fought and retreated, and suffered heavy losses. The 44th Army was also pursued by Hua Ye and some of them were destroyed.
Finally, more than 70,000 troops such as the 25th And 100th Army, as well as the relatively complete 64th Army, entered the mill with heavy losses. However, at this time, Qiu Qingquan and Huang Wei's two corps went up to reinforce, and Huang Baitao's corps could still maintain morale. At the same time, they were good at building fortifications, especially the construction of circular defensive positions, and the various units covered each other.
On November 11, the Battle of Nianzhuang officially began, and the 4th, 6th, 8th, 9th, and 13th Columns, with the cooperation of the special column, launched a fierce attack on Huang Baitao's corps in Nianzhuang from four directions. In the eyes of huaye's columns, it was inevitable to take down the milling village with a radius of tens of kilometers. However, the fortifications of the enemy troops are very distinctive, and they are all circular fortifications. That is, no matter which angle the attacking party cuts from, it will immediately incur fire damage from multiple directions. What is particularly overwhelming is that the defenders' firing holes are mostly close to the surface, which is difficult to find when attacking, and even if you crawl forward, you may be hit by bullets.
In the Battle of Shuangduiji, the 12th Corps was the most elite unit of Chiang Kai-shek's army, with a large number of elite units of American weapons. Therefore, Nakano dispatched 7 columns, plus 4 columns such as the 3rd, 7th, and 13th Columns of Huaye and the Special Column. There are many evaluations of Huang Wei's use of soldiers: his classmate Chen Geng commented: "If Huang Wei goes to teach, as a military instructor, absolutely first-class, as a commander, it must be a bad thing!" In fact, Huang Wei was finally surrounded, that is, the entire corps waited for a missing chief of the operations department, for more than ten hours, delaying the only escape window, very bookish.
But after all, the 12th Corps was all an elite unit of Chiang Kai-shek's army, how fierce was the battle? For example, in the battle of the double pile set, the sharp valley pile was the commanding height of this area, and the artillery observation point of the 12th Corps was set on it, which was actually a hill more than 30 meters high, stationed by the 18th Army. After the fall of Dawangzhuang, in order to defend the commanding heights, they dug spiral-shaped fortifications from the bottom up layer by layer, piled up hundreds of corpses as a chest wall and fortress roof for single bunkers, and the two sides sawed between these corpses more than a dozen times.
For another example, in the battle of Dawangzhuang, the 118th and 11th divisions of the enemy's 18th Army had run out of oil after fierce fighting, and the last to rush to the position were the division's motor soldiers, grooms, and gangmen; at that time, the Huaye 7th Column had also been exhausted, and the last to the top was the column guard company. In this small village of more than 40 families, the casualties on both sides reached 10,000. You can know the fierceness of the whole battle.
In the Battle of Shuangduiji, our army annihilated 120,000 enemies, of which 46,000 were killed or wounded by the enemy, and more than 30,000 were casualties of our army. In the Battle of Nianzhuang, our army annihilated 100,000 enemies, of which 60,000 were killed or wounded, and our army suffered more than 60,000 casualties.
