The father of the sword is Kong Jie

With the emergence of the main force of the Fourth Battalion, the Uchida Brigade was completely besieged.

The east and west wings are the main force of the [-]st, [-]nd and [-]rd Battalions of the Fourth Regiment, the main force of the Fourth Battalion attacking from the north is the main force of the Fourth Battalion, and the south is the unnamed high slope blocking the way of the Uchida Brigade.

The soldiers of the fourth company led by the fourth company commander were stationed in the central area of ​​Gaopo.

This is the end.

Originally, the old devil Uchida Shino had a well-thought-out plan to use the central flowering tactics to destroy the main force of the Fourth Independent Regiment in one fell swoop.

All the confidence has turned into the current anxiety and shame.

Miscalculated.

Uchida Shinobu also had to admit that he underestimated the strength of the Fourth Independent Regiment and Wang Huaibao's command ability too much.

As the Uchida Brigade was surrounded by the Eighth Route Army, the Uchida Brigade fell into crisis in an instant.

Of course, even so.

Even though he was besieged by the Eighth Route Army regiments, Uchida Shinya's old face showed anxiety, but no panic, and although there was shame and anger, he was not worried.

At least his Uchida brigade is still stationed at the fortifications.

The fortifications relied on are easy to defend but difficult to attack, the equipment in hand is still excellent, and the ammunition is still abundant.

The only pity is that they failed to wipe out the Eighth Route Army company in front of them, took down Wuming Gaopo, and occupied an absolute geographical advantage.

But relying on the fortifications in front of him, Uchida Nobu is also confident that it will not be a problem to stick to it for two hours.

As long as the main mopping forces encircle the Eighth Route Army from the outside, the tactics of blooming in the center will still work.

As for the battle area where the fighters of the Fourth Regiment who rushed in from the two wings and the Japanese army were handed over in the middle of the fortifications re-garrisoned by Wuming Gaopo and the Uchida Brigade at this time.

A ruthless look flashed in Uchida Shinya's eyes.

A very vicious thought suddenly appeared in his mind:
Right now, the two sides handed over short soldiers, and after the hand-to-hand combat broke out, the Eighth Route Army clearly had the absolute upper hand by virtue of its superiority in strength.

It was only a matter of time before the imperial warriors of his Uchida Brigade were entangled by the Eighth Route Army, and were wiped out by the Eighth Route Army.

Rather than that...

Why not bury all these Eighth Route Army with your own hands?
Uchida Shinobu may not understand the truth of the so-called success of one general, but he understands the blood and cruelty in it.

"Communication soldier, pass my order, immediately notify the artillery unit, and prepare to implement indiscriminate fire coverage in the battle area ahead!"

Uchida Shinya's order was issued, and the communication soldier froze in place, his eyes widened.

The devil's staff officer on the side was even more stunned: "Your Excellency, Captain, we still have a large number of surviving soldiers who are also fighting in the front area. If the firepower continues, wouldn't it be..."

"I know what you're worried about, but the situation is urgent right now, and the Eight Route Army used infantry coordination tactics to quickly entangle with our army, in order to make our army's artillery lose its advantage.

Are we going to let these eight roads lead us by the nose?

As for the imperial soldiers who died together, they were true warriors who died heroically on the battlefield.

The Emperor will always remember them! "

Uchida Shinya, who has already decided to be ruthless, how can he easily change his mind?
He explained incredulously.

"Hi!"

Sensing Uchida Nobuya's determination, the devil's staff dared not have another word.

The messenger also immediately conveyed Uchida Shinya's order.

After Uchida Shinya's order was communicated, the Devil's artillery unit covered the area where the Eighth Route Army fought with Japanese soldiers.

"fire!"

Rumbling--

There was a sudden explosion, and the shells fell on the heads of the Eighth Route Army soldiers who were handing over soldiers, and also fell on the heads of those dazed devil soldiers.

Quickly enter the white-hot combat zone.

Both the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army were dumbfounded.

The little devil's indiscriminate fire coverage is really ruthless, and he won't even spare his own people.

The several battalion commanders who were commanding and watching the battle in the rear couldn't help but cursed: "This son of a bitch, Uchida, is crazy, and even bombed his own people?"

"Concealment, concealment——, first avoid the enemy's artillery attack!"

The company commanders and platoon leaders who took the lead in the charge quickly shouted at their team.

In the round after round of bombardment, both the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese Army, which were fighting, suffered a lot of casualties.

Regarding this scene, the eyelids of the devil staff officer next to Uchida Shinya twitched.

Your Excellency the captain is really crazy and cruel enough, and he is not afraid of being sent to a military court after the war at all.

Looking at the tragic scene under the bombardment, Uchida Shinya's mouth was a sneer of revenge.

He seemed to tell Wang Huaibao with practical actions.

It's not just that your Eighth Route Army troops are crazy enough to break through our army's fortifications in one fell swoop with close-range infantry coordination.

I, Uchida, are not easy to provoke, I am so ruthless that I will not even spare my own people...

"attack--"

beep beep beep beep beep—

The best way to relieve the crisis of the soldiers of the fourth regiment in the bombarded area is naturally to destroy the artillery unit behind the Uchida brigade.

Seeing the bombardment of the Uchida Brigade, Han Feng immediately gave the order for a general attack.

Launched a fierce attack from the back of the Uchida Brigade.

The main force of the [-]st, [-]nd and [-]rd Battalions, which had originally turned around from the flanks, also turned towards the area where the headquarters of the Uchida Brigade was located in the rear.

The forces of all parties attempted to interrupt the attack of the artillery unit of the Uchida Brigade with a fierce attack.

... At this time, the trump card that Wang Huaibao had been hiding all along finally surfaced...
It was the sudden burst of mortar fire from the Fourth Independent Regiment.

It turned out that since Kong Jie sent nearly a regiment of American equipment to the Fourth Regiment, the soldiers of the Fourth Regiment were supplemented with equipment and ammunition, and naturally showed their strong combat effectiveness again, easily breaking the Japanese blockade and killing the devils in one fell swoop. Many of the villages were merged.

But Wang Huaibao also hid a hole card.

That is the newly formed mortar company of the Fourth Regiment.

This mortar company uses all American M2 60mm mortars, after the number has been replenished in a new round.

According to Kong Jie’s equipment plan with John at that time, in Kong Jie’s words:
"These 60mm mortars are used as firepower for squads and platoons. At the very least, they must be equipped to the platoon. You US military is rich and powerful. Don't you just want to see the power of this kind of grassroots artillery in actual combat? Why don't we directly attach it to the platoon?" class!"

John was eager to see the actual combat effect displayed by the American Weaponry Group, and after a little hesitation, he agreed.

Of course, in the end it wasn't that exaggerated.

If it is really a squad, it will be equipped with a 60mm mortar.

This independent fourth regiment has four battalions, and each battalion is calculated based on three companies, nine platoons, and 27 squads.

Doesn't the Fourth Independent Regiment have 108 60mm mortars?
In terms of firepower, it completely crushed the Uchida brigade.

So the last platoon of the Fourth Regiment almost has 1 to 2 60mm mortars.

Of course, the squad will also be equipped with a small [-] cannon as a support artillery for the combat squad.

From this perspective, the Fourth Regiment can be said to be a main combat regiment of the Eighth Route Army armed to the teeth.

Wang Huaibao used [-] or [-] mortars in a concentrated manner and established a mortar company.As a support artillery on the battlefield.

Almost in groups of four, form a mortar squad
There are many observers, gunners, loaders, and commanders.

In order to break the Japanese army's encroachment plan in the Zhongtiao Mountain area, Wang Huaibao specially ordered that each company can only use 1/3 of the firepower of the [-] mortars sent by Kong Jie.

Therefore, in the situation detected by the intelligence department and the investigation department of the Japanese army, the artillery fire intensity displayed by the Fourth Independent Regiment was only 1/3 of that.

Right now the remaining 2/3 completely broke out.

A considerable number of M2 type [-] mortars, as well as abundant shells.

"fire--"

In the previous confrontation, the forward artillery scouts had already passed the coordinate data of the Japanese artillery positions to the mortar company behind.

After the commander of the artillery company ordered the adjustment of the shooting elements, he ordered that nearly 30 60mm mortars that had been built a long time ago fired at the artillery positions of the Uchida Brigade.

The American M2 60mm mortar has superior performance, long range, high power, and high accuracy. It is equipped with the latest M4 sight sent by John.

Even at a distance of seven or eight hundred meters, it is still possible to accurately cover the target area with firepower.

Under the bombardment of raging artillery fire, the devils were bombarding the artillery positions in the combat area where the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army handed over in the rear, and immediately suffered a heavy blow.

And it's the kind of one-sided beating, even if you want to fight back, you can't do it.

Wang Huaibao deliberately ordered that the mortar company build its position at a distance of about 700 meters, just outside the effective range of the [-]-type grenadiers that the Japanese army deployed in large numbers.

This is very embarrassing for the Japanese army.

Sixty mortars can hit their artillery, but their artillery can't hit sixty mortars.

The only position where the three [-]-type infantry guns were able to counterattack was the first to be destroyed by the opponent's artillery.

Under the fierce artillery bombardment, the expression of the old devil Shinya Uchida, who was almost hit by a shell, finally changed.

In awe, he cursed at the enemy commander, Wang Huaibao - despicable.

The two sides have clashed to such an extent, how dare you hide such a fierce mortar firepower.

It was all an illusion that the Eighth Route Army was defeated by his Neitian brigade taking advantage of artillery fire.

The real killing move is hidden in front of your eyes!
As Wang Huaibao's mortar company launched a fierce attack, the Japanese artillery positions were quickly suppressed by unilateral firepower and could not hold their heads up.

The combat area for short-hand handover in the rear.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army of the Fourth Regiment, taking advantage of being suppressed by the devil's artillery fire, quickly jumped up and launched a final onslaught to wipe out all the remaining Japanese troops.

The main force of the [-]st, [-]rd and [-]rd Battalions included the [-]th Company leading the charge down from the unnamed high slope, and the [-]th Battalion led by Han Feng who rushed from the north.

The firepower of the American equipment on hand by the soldiers broke out completely, and they did not hold back the slightest hand.

The surrounded Uchida Brigade launched a fierce attack from all sides.

The artillery fire of the platoon artillery company continued, covering the charge of infantry from all sides.

In the words of the commander of the Pao Company, if we fight a spare battle this time, the shells can be used by me. Anyway, the old regiment leader said that we have Yankees paying for it behind our backs!

So, what kind of team is facing the Uchida Battalion of the Japanese Kwantung Army, which is currently under siege?

It was a steel division with the absolute belief of the Eighth Route Army and the will to fight without fear of death.

At the same time, it has the most advanced American equipment of this period, and the excellent weapons completely crush the Japanese army.

It also has an advantage in terms of military strength.

The main force of the Fourth Battalion, which launched an attack from the back of the Japanese army, completely pocketed the Uchida Brigade.

Uchida Nobu has also been puzzled that the sweeping army is clearly advancing behind his back.

This damn Eighth Route Army team blocked his retreat from the rear.

Where exactly did it come from?

Seeing that the general situation is over, Uchida Nobu, who has finally changed from his original self-confidence to an anxious face, no longer dares to hesitate.

Immediately let the Ministry of Communications order the General Headquarters to inform the Uchida Brigade that the situation is critical.

Rush for tactical guidance!
But news came one after another, directly sinking Uchida Shinya's heart to the bottom of the sea.

"The Second Sweeping Brigade was blocked by the Eighth Route Army in the Xiaohuanggou area!"

"The third mopping-up unit was blocked by the Eighth Route along the way, and it was temporarily unable to reach Wumingpo!"

"The Matsuno Squadron, which rushed to the unnamed high slope for help, fell into a minefield set up by the Eighth Route on the way, and suffered heavy casualties..."

……

original.

Wang Huaibao's deployment this time, on the one hand, encircled the Uchida Brigade on all sides.

On the other hand, there are local troops and militia troops from all sides, including some field troops of the Fourth Regiment.

Minefields were laid along the advance of the Japanese mopping up troops to block the advance of the Japanese army and buy time to destroy the Uchida brigade in one fell swoop.

to this end.

The troops responsible for blocking and attacking aid from all sides also went all out.

Soldiers one by one, including comrades from local troops and militia units, kept blocking and fighting bloody battles along the way.

Even desperately, we must buy time for the main force in the rear to destroy the Uchida Brigade.

Even if you paid a terrible price for it.

... There was a militia squad.

In order to garrison the last position, more than 30 militia comrades, although it had not been too long to touch their guns, were all killed on the position in the end.

From the beginning to the end, no comrade took even half a step back.

The average age of all members of this militia team was less than 30 years old, so they died heroically in an unknown ravine.

The small and inconspicuous blocking battle that is not enough to shine in the annals of history is also an indispensable part of this tragic and majestic history of the Chinese nation's anti-Japanese war.

Under the bravery and madness of the soldiers.

In the end, when Nobuya Uchida was most desperate, none of the mopping-up troops from all sides could come to reinforce him.

The fierce battle between the two sides has reached this point, and less than an hour has passed.

The two hours of blocking time, which I had sworn to and thought to be extremely easy, had not yet passed half.

It's all over...

Uchida Nobu also raised his head, closed his eyes and sighed.

In the midst of sadness and lamentation, he suddenly wanted to meet the opponent's Eighth Route Army commander, but he really wanted to see what kind of character this Eighth Route Army commander was.

"It really looks like a wolf with its teeth bared... Once bitten, it will never let go."

This is what Uchida Shinya felt in his heart at the moment.

He was obviously scared, and would rather choose to retreat in humiliation, but the other party didn't give him a chance at all.

...The final decisive battle broke out suddenly when the mentality of the two sides was changing.

The roar of artillery fire.

The crack of bullets.

Shouts, howls, roars, charge horns...

They are completely intertwined into one piece, becoming the most shocking lingering sound that does not have any rhythm in this world.

The two sides fought fiercely for nearly 10 minutes.

In the fairly large-scale anti-sweeping operation launched in Zhongtiao Mountain this time, the battle designed by the Independent Fourth Regiment to destroy the Uchida Brigade of the Japanese Kwantung Army came to an end.

On the mountain below the nameless high slope, gunpowder smoke is still pervasive.

The corpses of the eighth route army and the Japanese army that fell all over the ground were mixed together, bleeding and drifting, silently telling the tragedy and tragedy of the war.

While directing the soldiers to quickly clean up the battlefield, several battalion commanders from the fourth regiment met.

Looking at the old devil Uchida Ningya lying at his feet still staring at his eyes, holding the command knife stiffly in his right hand, who was completely beaten into a hornet's nest by the machine gun.

The Second Battalion Commander couldn't help but sighed: "This old bastard, although he wants to scold and kick him fiercely, but as opponents, we have to admit that these Kwantung Army are really tough opponents."

"That's right! Fighting to the end, the entire Uchida brigade didn't have a single kid who gave up resistance until they were all killed.

We still suffered a lot of casualties in such an ambush battle, which has an absolute advantage. For our independent regiment, this is really the first time! "

The first battalion commander said in a deep voice.

Han Feng smiled suddenly, "But we still won the battle, a complete victory, didn't we?
From this point of view, even the most powerful Kwantung Army troops of the devils are nothing more than that.

Our Eighth Route Army troops are strong when they are strong.

Fighting for the motherland and the people is always invincible. "

"well said!"

There was applause from not far away, and it turned out that the team leader Wang Huaibao had arrived.

"Captain!"

"Captain!"

Several battalion commanders shouted one after another.

Looking at the tragic battlefield, a large number of corpses of both the enemy and the enemy fell.

Wang Huaibao, who gave full play to the spirit of revolutionary optimism, said loudly: "The Fourth Battalion Commander is right, if the enemy is strong, then we will be stronger than them.

So what if the Kwantung Army was an elite Japanese army?
Our four regiments fight the fucking elite.

In this battle, we fought with style and demonstrated the integrity of all the soldiers of our Fourth Regiment. I want to see, who will dare to underestimate my independent Fourth Regiment in Zhongtiao Mountain in the future? "

yes……

The elite are like the Uchida Brigade of the Japanese Kwantung Army.

In the case of the Japanese army's raid on Zhongtiao Mountain, it was still wiped out by the Fourth Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

If such news is spread, it will definitely cause turmoil in the entire Zhongtiao Mountain, the entire southern Shanxi, and even the entire North China...

With great pride and honor.

All the soldiers of the Fourth Regiment quickly and orderly cleaned up the battlefield...
