Chapter 576 Chapter 585, Defensive Counterattack
The Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade... This is a very famous brigade in the history of our Anti-Japanese War.

After all, before it was expanded into the 62nd Division and finally pulled to the Pacific battlefield, this brigade had been stationed in Shanxi, defending the Pingliao Highway.

Just today, the Bantian United team took over their defense and successfully completed the defense of Liao County. The 13th and 14th brigades, about 1500 devils, went west along the mountain road from Liao County to Yushe.

However... What awaited them was the pocket array arranged by the new 385 brigade, and the 386 light and heavy machine guns that the 385 brigade assisted the 40 brigade...

The situation at that time made the devils afraid for a while when they mentioned it.According to the recollection of a surviving ghost after the war: At that time, we followed the captain and sang all the way west, and suddenly there was a sound, Balu appeared on the mountain ridge, and rifles and machine guns fired together, almost killing the captain.

The captain, see the opportunity, and lead us back; Tubalu, too insidious, planted a bomb on the side of the road; the bomb rang, the shrapnel flew, and hundreds of comrades turned their souls back; fortunately, my foot slipped and I fell into the pit to hide Let's go; look at me again, Captain, covered in blood and dying; at this moment, Sakuragi-san, pull me up and run away.

I ran all the way, searched all the way, and found the captain of the 13th group; the captain, riding a horse, gathered more than a thousand comrades in arms; although there were many people, they had no intention of fighting, and continued to return to Liao County.

Shixia Village is not a big village, with only dozens of households; by this time, tired and exhausted, the village was ordered to rest.Under the order, with a happy face, everyone rushed to the front of the village.I still remember that when I came out, I passed this small village.There are no people in the village, but there are wells and shade.Now I, just thinking about it, drink water and rest in the shade.

Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the entrance of the village, I heard the roar of cannons; look at me, comrades-in-arms, none of them survived.Tubalu, cunning, quickly turn around and run away.Unexpectedly, Tubalu chased after the bombs.Running all the way, bombing all the way, panic and fear in my heart.

Suddenly, in the air, the sound of roaring and whistling planes was heard.Army Air Corps, reconnaissance planes, possessing and shooting to block.So I, my comrades-in-arms and I finally escaped with our lives, bang bang bang bang bang bang bang...

Well, in today's battle, the little devils attacked from two directions. As a result, the independent regiment withstood the attacks of the two brigades, and the 385th brigade ambushed the two brigades. They also set up an ambush in Shixia Village, and the fourth mixed brigade was defeated and fled. The devils killed another batch.

In short, when this situation was reported to Old Devil Meijin, Meijin's head buzzed again, knowing that something was wrong.Hurry up, transfer the devils from the 69th Regiment back, and stop fighting at Yushe...

"Baga, is this Tubalu? Is this the Tubalu that was worse than a beggar before?" Captain Chuantian yelled on the phone, venting his unwillingness.

"Kawada, now, you organize the evacuation immediately! But how to evacuate, you have to plan well, and don't be bitten by the eight roads! I will lead two brigades out of the city to meet you. In addition, you will be safe if you are 6 kilometers away from the county seat Yes. The Division Artillery Regiment will give you artillery support!" The captain of the 69th Regiment put down the phone.

"Hay!" Kawata heard the call was hung up, but still nodded.When he stood up, his brows were already wrinkled.

No matter how imaginative Kawada was, he would never have imagined that what should have been a brisk offensive battle turned into trying to find a way to evacuate.Who should I ask for reason?
However, Kawata was not stupid, he knew that he would not retreat any longer, and when the Eight Route Army came back and concentrated a large number of troops, his two brigades would have to be accounted for here.Moreover, the enemy in front of him, the company guarding the front and changing the company's regiment after a blockade, seems to be... training with himself?

Thinking of this, and thinking of what happened to the Fourth Mixed Brigade, Kawata suddenly felt a chill down his back.

"Okay, now pass my order to let Major Endo organize a squadron of troops and stay here to build a circular defensive position... Let..."

Kawata gave the order, but the commanding officer on the spot, Major Endo, was furious: "Baga... our mortar positions, my infantry..."

In the attack just now, Endo sent three teams. As a result, the team in the river valley was taken as a living target by the recruits of the Fourth Battalion of the Independent Regiment, and more than 30 devils were damaged in battle before they were able to evacuate.The two teams that were attacking from the front were also killed by more than 50 firepower from the opposite side before retreating.

Without the suppression of firepower from mortars and heavy machine guns, the soldiers of the 6th company fighting back against the devils showed their best condition, and the commander of the 6th company also showed the strongest firepower.Throwing grenades, continuous machine guns, squad machine guns, and even shotguns. In short, everything that can be used is used, and even Company Commander Wan has personally used it.

To be honest, if there were not many recruits in the 6th company, and the closest devils were more than 210 meters away, I am afraid that most of the devils in these two teams could be wiped out.Do not believe?Changing to the special warfare platoon here, at most it would be a matter of two or three shots per person...

"Nani? Retreat?" Endo soon received a report from the communications soldier, and looked at the rolling hills in the north with some ugly eyes: "In the end, who is the elite? If the Chinese army has such combat effectiveness, then we still have to Is it necessary to continue to occupy China?" Endo was a little shaken.

"Now, listen to my order, immediately..." Endo didn't dare to delay, and immediately organized troops to build a circular fortification to buy time for the team to retreat.

The little devil was mobilizing troops, the 6th company in the position was ordered to go back to rest, and the [-]st battalion went up.At this time, the phone at the command post of the independent regiment rang.

"Regimental Commander, the brigade headquarter reported, just now..." The communications soldier reported the results of the battle on the North Road to Kong Jie.

"Good news! Hurry up and call Captain Cheng, we need to change our tactics!" Old Kong made a decisive decision and called Captain Cheng.

"Old Cheng, do you know the news? What I think is, since your side is almost done, so is mine! Now, the little devil must feel uncomfortable, and he might run away! So, I decided that we will take the initiative!"

"The devil's biggest threat to us is the mountain artillery position behind, which we can't reach. Since you can fight it, then blow up the mountain artillery! If the mountain artillery is gone, our two regiments will turn from defense to offense and kill these people." You bastard devil!"

"Okay, I've been waiting for your words for a long time! Wait..." Over there, Captain Cheng put down the phone: "Kill the devil's mountain artillery position... Haha, in the past, we can only think about it It's just a dream at most. But now... orderly, is the telephone line on the mortar company connected? Tell them, use the maximum firepower to kill the devil's mountain artillery position. Tell the first battalion and the second battalion, our mortar battery After the mortar bombardment, attack the devils immediately!"

"The signal for the attack is two red flares! Remember, when you see the flares, rush there with all your strength and deal with the devils!" said Captain Cheng.

"Give me an order: the second battalion stays at the top of the hill, the first battalion, the third battalion, and the fourth battalion immediately gather at the front and prepare to launch an attack on the devil's main position! Call Commander Xing and ask him to blow up the devil's heavy machine gun position, Then cover and bomb the devils' positions!" Commander Kong also gave the order and waited for the 772nd regiment.

Time passed slowly as everyone prepared.This kind of anxious waiting is the most tormenting, but everyone can hold their breath.

Of course, the comrades who were preparing to attack did not feel this anxiety, but were led by the battalion, company and platoon leaders to boost their morale.

"Hurry up, hurry up...run up, run up... listen up, the first battalion will attack us later, the third battalion will be in the middle, and the fourth battalion will be behind..."

"Attention everyone, new soldiers will be afraid when they first go to the battlefield, and veterans will wear some! Also, tell those scared bastards that they don't want their relatives to be killed by devils, and their wives and sisters are not insulted by devils, then use The guy in your hand kills the devil!"

"Comrades, it's time for revenge! Those who have a blood feud with the devil, the time to kill the enemy is at hand, and they all mustered up their energy to kill the devil..."

"Okay, stop here, there will be shelling later, let's see what the little devil looks like after being bombed!"

For the commander of the 772 regiment, the situation is different. Because it is the main regiment, there are many veterans, so no one has done anything to boost morale.The point is, now everyone is still in the process of concealing the enemy, so we can't expose it.

However, the mortar company of the 772nd regiment is busy with tension.

"Calibration coordinates... very good, the devil's artillery position is just between 2500 meters and 2800 meters, which is exactly at our maximum range!"

"Comrades, whether the name of our main force can continue to be resounding depends on our performance..."

"Company commander, the artillery fire is ready, should you call the regiment headquarters first?"

"Hello? Commander, it's me... yes, the mortar is ready and ready to bomb at any time! Commander, my artillery observers found that the devil's mountain artillery is moving... you can still get it... understand!" The mortar The company commander Lianqu put down the phone.

"Give me the order: extremely rapid fire, three rounds, let go!" Company Commander Qu's words were roared out, with extremely exciting emotions.

"Let it go..." the leaders of the eight mortar teams shouted almost simultaneously.

"Tom tom tom..." The propellants on the fins of the 8 bottomed mortar shells were detonated, and the flames ignited the propellant packs wrapped around the fins.

Under the tremendous pressure of the full propellant, the mortar shells quickly escaped from the muzzle and flew towards the devil's mountain artillery position.

"Play it again..."

"Play it again..."

"Very good, the observer will immediately observe where the shells fall!"

Extremely rapid fire, 3 shells were shot out in 5 seconds, and they were still flying in the air at this time.When the artillery observation post on the treetops on the top of the mountain aimed the artillery team mirror at the artillery position of Guizishan, it happened to see the scene where the artillery shells fell to the ground and exploded.

"Boom, boom, boom..." 24 mortar shells exploded one after another on the Devil's Mountain Cannon position. The devils who were moving the mountain cannon, packing up the ammunition, and recovering the artillery observation balloon were unlucky.But I saw clusters of flames rising, and there were devils flying with the wind with their teeth and claws open.

"Boom boom boom..." A huge explosion exploded on the devil's mountain cannon position again. It was a truck pulling shells that was hit, and the ammunition on board exploded.The power of the sacrificial explosion is too great, the shock waves visible to the naked eye scatter in all directions, blowing away everything encountered...

"Quack quack... Company commander, the devil's cannonball exploded. It's a big cloud, like cotton candy!"

"Company commander, the devil's big balloon exploded, the flames are so big, the little devil is burned!"

"Company commander, there is still a mountain cannon that was not hit. The coordinates are 6 meters from the balloon to the direction of 140 o'clock!"

Well, the artillery observer who tied himself to the tree and tied the artillery sight glass to the tree did a good job this time.

"Have you heard where the devil's remaining mountain cannon is? You calculate the coordinates yourself, one cannon for each group, one group at a time, and blow the fuck up for me!" Company Commander Qu was not afraid either. It was a waste of shells, and a practical training came directly.

Well, by this time, the devil's mountain artillery position was basically destroyed, and the remaining mountain artillery was also surrounded by flames, almost without the ability to fight back. It happened to be a good time for training.

"Commander, our first bombing here is over, and there is still..." Company Commander Qu picked up the phone and reported to Cheng Xiazi.

"Very good, let the attacking troops pay attention to the attack rhythm of the independent regiment! Don't be idle, and blow up the devil's main position again!" said Captain Cheng.

Just when the Devils artillery position was bombed, Xing Dezheng also issued an order at the same time on the artillery position of the Independence Regiment Houshan: Bomb!

So, when Company Commander Qu was reporting to Cheng Xiazi, 8 mortar shells flew out from the artillery positions of the independent regiment, and landed directly on the heavy machine gun positions of the devils, killing the remaining heavy machine guns.

Immediately afterwards, rounds of shells flew, covering and bombing the hill where the devil was.

"Now, put on the white cannonball and do something for the devil!" After a round of coverage, Xing Dezheng gave an order with a sinister smile.

"Change the white cannonballs... let them go!" The artillery company had already prepared, and two more rounds of white cannonballs flew out.

"Chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp... boom boom boom..." The mortar shells went from east to west and from north to south, and just like that, they bombarded the devil's main position twice.At the end of the bombing, white shells were also used to cover the devil mountain with a layer of white mist.

"Baga! Come on, get me through to the captain, hurry up..." The bombing was going on here, but the devil was in a panic.

The little devil really didn't expect that the Eighth Route Army had ambushed mortar positions in the east, and it was still the size of a company.Is this still poor?

Well, until now, the devils seem to believe that Captain Zeziro has really met a powerful opponent, because they have also met.

"Moses, Captain, my side was...bombed by artillery from the Eighth Route..." The call ended.

"Okay, the shelling is over, let's fire the signal flare!" Commander Kong finally gave the order for a general counterattack.

"Tom tom... Chirp..." The signal flare was lifted into the air, and everyone on the battlefield saw it.

"Comrades, go..." The impatient soldiers rushed out of the trenches and the woods...
