The 2nd Division launched the landing with the awareness of losing a regiment, but to their surprise, the Soviet army collapsed at the first touch, and the resistance was not as fierce as they had imagined. As a result, the Japanese army only paid about two battalions, with a loss of less than 1,500 people, and successfully landed!
“It seems that the fighting ability of the hairy bear people is not that good!”
After the successful landing, everyone in the foot basin heaved a sigh of relief, and they all began to be optimistic.
In the previous battles, the Mao Bear army left them with the impression that they were cowardly and afraid of death and could not fight hard battles. Thinking of the Russo-Japanese War, they had beaten the Mao Bears, and in the 1920 intervention war against the Mao Bears, the Japanese army had also defeated the Mao Bears.
So the Japanese army suddenly began to despise the Mao Bears. They felt that the Mao Bears were a group of cowards and a group of cowards. Such an army could not stop their brave, fearless foot basin army!
In the subsequent offensive of the Japanese army, the performance of the Soviet army seemed to confirm this point.
They were no different from their previous performance on the beachhead. Basically, as long as the Japanese army launched an attack, they would quickly retreat after a little resistance.
Seeing that the enemy was so cowardly, the Japanese army was immediately boosted in morale, and began to pursue without thinking. As a result, while chasing and attacking, the Japanese army continued to retreat, and gradually entered the inland area where the navy’s artillery could not support!
“Why do I feel like something is wrong?”
On the side of the combined fleet, the navy smelled a hint of conspiracy. They intuitively felt that the army was pursuing too deep.
“Something is wrong, but it is also possible that our previous artillery bombardment frightened them. In addition, the Russians have been here for too short a time and are unfamiliar with the terrain here. In addition, their weapons and equipment are relatively poor. Except for performing slightly better in the beach battle, they basically had no courage to fight in the rest of the battles, so they kept losing!”
“Well, this is indeed possible, but I always feel that the woolly bears seem to be deliberately luring these idiots from the army to chase them. I hope it is not our illusion!”
“Should I send a telegram to those guys in the Army and ask them to be more careful?”
“It’s useless to send them. I don’t think they will listen to us!”
Shanben Wushiliu shook his head.
He had participated in the cooperation between the army and the navy several times and was very clear about the contradiction between the army and the navy.
This contradiction involved the competition between the two armies for limited resources.
Therefore, unless the military expenditure and domestic resources of the foot basin are greatly increased to completely solve the problem of insufficient supply, the contradiction between the navy and the army is unlikely to disappear!
In the case of such a big contradiction between the navy and the army, even if the navy does not care about the army, the army may not believe them.
“Let’s send one. Whether they listen or not, we have to fulfill our responsibilities!”
The commander of the fleet finally insisted on sending a warning telegram to the army on the shore in the name of the navy, asking them not to pursue too deep and try to get closer to the sea. In this way, even if they encounter any accidents, the navy can provide them with artillery support!
Although the Combined Fleet had noticed that something was wrong, they still underestimated the contradiction between the navy and the army.
The Second Division had been chasing all the way, getting deeper and deeper, and the surrounding terrain became more and more unfamiliar. They already felt something was wrong in their hearts and were even ready to withdraw.
But at this time, they suddenly received a telegram from the navy, reminding them to be careful of the enemy’s conspiracy.
This time, the Second Division would not leave!
“Humph, if we retreat now, those guys in the navy will laugh at us!”
“That’s right, if we go back now they will definitely laugh at us!”
“So not only can we not retreat, but we have to continue to attack. Anyway, the combat effectiveness of the Russians is so poor that even if there is any conspiracy, they are not our opponents!”
When the Foot Basin Army thought of the cowardly and fearful performance of the Russians before, they were suddenly fearless!
So, they ignored the warnings of the Navy and continued to attack!
The Russians had seen that the Japanese army stopped and did not continue to advance, and they were a little worried that their intentions were exposed, so they were thinking about whether to take action in advance before the Japanese army completely entered the ambush circle.
Unexpectedly, the Japanese army dared to attack forward. This time, the Russians did not need to launch an attack in advance. They suddenly launched a full-scale total after the Japanese army completely entered their encirclement!
For a time, guns and artillery roared, and the dense artillery shells directly stunned the Japanese army!
In order to annihilate them completely, the Soviet army almost blocked all their retreat routes, and the Soviet army also used the few artillery shells.
All of them were fired.
Anyway, as long as this Japanese army was destroyed, there would be no more fighting on Kuye Island in a short time.
They could wait for the logistics troops to continue to transport weapons and ammunition from the mainland, so there was no need to keep these weapons and ammunition in their hands.
They could just give them all to the foot basin people!
The dense explosions from the shore alarmed the joint fleet at sea, but even if they knew that their army was attacked by the enemy on land, they had no way to deal with it.
The area of the battle has exceeded the range of their battleships’ main guns, and the battleships cannot go to land to fight, so they can only watch anxiously at sea!
The Second Division trapped in the encirclement quickly calmed down after the initial panic after being attacked!
��They are worthy of being the guard division beside Tianhuang, and their own military quality is still very strong.
After stabilizing their position, the Japanese army immediately realized that the situation was not good. They should have fallen into the enemy’s encirclement!
The Second Division knew that if they wanted to survive, they could only rely on themselves. There was only one division in the foot basin at this time. This was the only division in the foot basin. It was absolutely impossible to send it to rescue them!
Although the navy was not far away, the navy could not go ashore. Even if they went ashore, they probably had no combat effectiveness, so the navy could not be counted on!
Therefore, they could only rely on themselves to break through, get as close to the navy as possible, and then seek the protection of the navy!
After the Japanese army formulated a plan to break through, they immediately began to implement it.
Originally, in their estimation, based on the performance of the Mao Xiong people in the previous battle, they had a chance to break through the Mao Xiong’s encirclement and rush out smoothly!
However, after the battle started, the foot basin people were shocked to find that their opponents, the Mao Xiong people, seemed to be a little different from before!
This bear army no longer collapsed at the first blow, no longer fled at the sight of the enemy, but chose to defend their positions and desperately blocked their way.
In order to survive, the Japanese army launched wave after wave of desperate charges with red eyes, and the bodies of the Japanese soldiers lying on the road were almost piled up!
However, no matter how they attacked, no matter how many casualties they caused to the bears on the opposite side, the bears gritted their teeth and fought to the death!
While the Japanese army was desperately trying to break through, the Soviet army in other directions quickly surrounded them and launched a general attack on the Japanese army trapped in the encirclement from all directions.
The Japanese army had only a quarter of the Soviet army’s strength, and they were surrounded by heavy siege, with no reinforcements and no way to retreat. Therefore, after facing huge offensive pressure, the Japanese army quickly lost the ability to break through and was completely surrounded near a high ground in the middle of Kuye Island!
The Second Guards Division has more than 28,700 people, including 22,000 combat troops. It is not easy for the Mao Bear to eat up this army!
But the Mao Bears fought very patiently. They knew that this Japanese army was the only one that landed on the shore, so they didn’t need to worry about being attacked by other Japanese troops. They just needed to eliminate the troops in the encirclement!
Facing such a methodical attack by the Mao Bears, the Japanese troops in the encirclement were almost desperate!
Not only were they desperate, but the high-level officials in the foot basin far away in Dongjing were also desperate!
“Is there really no way out? Can we just sit here and watch the Second Guards Division be annihilated?”
The Minister of the Army said to everyone in an almost pleading voice, but no one could respond to him.
There were no soldiers left in the homeland of Jiaoben, and even if another division was sent up, it would be too late!
Since the Mao Bears had calculated everything deliberately and lured the Second Division into their encirclement, they would definitely eat up the Second Guards Division in the encirclement before the reinforcements from Jiaoben arrived!
Facts have proved that the speculation of the top leaders of Jiaoben was very accurate.
Three days later, the last high ground guarded by the Second Guards Division was captured. With more than 28,000 people in the Second Guards Division, except for more than 1,200 people who were captured, all the others died in battle on Kuye Island.
