The father of the sword is Kong Jie

A team command.

Reinforcements to the Fourth Independent Regiment in Zhongtiao Mountain, and the armored troops that helped the Fourth Regiment break through the encirclement of the Japanese army, have set off secretly.

In order to cover the armored forces, they secretly arrived in Zhongtiao Mountain.

Kong Jie immediately deployed a team to the headquarters for a follow-up and rapid combat mission.

This battle seems to be massive.

The main forces of the first, second and third regiments of the first independent detachment in Northwest Shanxi were all dispatched.

Launched an attack on the remote counties of the Japanese army.

At this time, in the entire Taihang base area, the Japanese army and the Eighth Route Army were temporarily in a state of peace on the surface.

Despite the turbulent dark waves, the Japanese army is preparing a huge conspiracy to severely damage the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang base area.

As the first detachment of the Northwest Shanxi Anti-Japanese War that the Japanese army focused on.

Kong Jie made a slight move, and the intelligence agencies of the Japanese army were immediately mobilized.

One after another news spread overwhelmingly to the Japanese Army Command.

The Japanese army cannot afford to deal with it carelessly.

In the analysis of the units of the Eighth Route Army summarized by the Japanese military intelligence department, this sentence was written:

"The units of the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang and Taiyue base areas do not have the ability to capture the main county where our army is stationed for the time being."

But later, since a team appeared, the Japanese army added another sentence:
"Except for the First Anti-Japanese Detachment of the Eighth Route Army Northwest Shanxi!"

Therefore, around the base of the whole detachment, some major counties in the devil-occupied area, such as Yangquan, Shouyang, and Tanxian, etc., the Japanese army all strengthened the deployment of troops, and took extra care to be on guard.

In the face of such an Eighth Route Army unit with the ability to directly capture the county, the Japanese army did not dare to be careless in the slightest.

So a team's offense quickly unfolded from all directions.

The Japanese army was also a little confused for a while, and it was impossible to determine what this detachment was rushing for.

Could it be that they are really planning to attack the county seat and regain the lost ground?

Although his Eighth Route Army has a strong fighting force and excellent equipment, it seems that the gains outweigh the losses by attacking the county right now, right?

Although he couldn't figure it out, the Japanese army headquarters quickly adjusted its deployment and was ready to reinforce any county that might be breached by a team at any time.

……

The main force of a team of three regiments attacked the devil's county and town with great fanfare.

People once thought that a team of the Eighth Route Army was crazy.

Even when all the attention of the Japanese army in North China was attracted.

the other side

Relying on the rapid mobility of tanks and armored vehicles, under the leadership of Wang Shoucheng, the first company commander of an armored corps.

More than [-] combat vehicles secretly arrived in the middle of Zhongtiao Mountain and Taihang Base.

In fact, a team did build its own armored corps under the leadership of Kong Jie.

But this so-called armored corps was slightly different.

Not having enough tanks.

It is an armored force composed of various modified vehicles such as tanks, armored vehicles, and even military vehicles that are capable of undertaking complex combat capabilities.

For example, the armored company led by Wang Shoucheng right now.

A total of eight tanks and chariots were converted from captured Japanese tanks, plus twelve modified armored vehicles, and four modified combat vehicles.

In addition, Wang Shoucheng, the commander of the armored company, is a veteran soldier of the independent regiment's armored unit.

In the study classes held by the independent regiment, Wang Shousheng has always been among the best in the subject of armored troops.

Even He Dahai, the commander of the tank company that Kong Jie later gave to Li Yunlong, admired Wang Shoucheng when he mentioned it.

When He Dahai entered the study class, it was Wang Shoucheng who helped him to supplement a lot of knowledge in the subject of armored soldiers.

Before departing secretly from the fringes of a team's stronghold.

Wang Shoucheng ordered to carefully camouflage all the more than [-] vehicles of the armored company.

The entire tank is almost completely covered by camouflage nets, branches and green leaves.

Until the soldiers stopped the tank casually in the nearby forest.

Wang Shoucheng held the binoculars, and couldn't see anything from a few hundred meters away, which was considered a pass in disguise.

In the words of Wang Shoucheng:
Absolute concealment is a vital part of a powerful armored force if it wants to exert its combat effectiveness.

When a covert attack can be achieved, the combat effect of the entire armored company can even be doubled.

...Wang Shoucheng, who personally served as the tank commander of the No. [-] armored company, commanded all the vehicles of the armored company to quickly approach Zhongtiao Mountain.

He ordered that the soldiers maintain absolute vigilance along the way.

The principle is certain: you must never step into the unknown area rashly.

He will send cavalry scouts to investigate all the areas where armored vehicles are about to enter.

After making sure that no enemy situation is found around.

Wang Shoucheng would let the scouts spread out around, at a distance until the roar of tank engines could not be heard.

While continuing to maintain vigilance, command all combat vehicles to move forward quickly.

As for the route to the Zhongtiao Mountain area, Wang Shoucheng had already discussed it with Kong Jie at the headquarters.

Along the way, Kong Jie even sent a team of field troops to cover.

Whenever you encounter an obstacle that is really impossible to pass, or an area where the Japanese army is stationed.

There will be field troops forcibly destroying the Japanese defense force, or attracting the attention of the Japanese army to cover the continued advancement of the armored company.

Thanks to this series of meticulous deployments, the advance of the armored company from the Taihang base to the edge of Zhongtiao Mountain was quite smooth.

It has never been noticed by the Japanese army.

The Japanese army never dreamed of it.

With great fanfare, this detachment attacked the county and attacked from all directions, just to cover the southward movement of an armored force.

As early as a long time ago, a team directly publicized the news that it was going to build an armored corps belonging to a team.

But the little devil doesn't believe it at all!

Not to mention that the little devil didn't believe it, even the Eighth Route Army's brigade and headquarters didn't believe it at first.

Until later, Kong Jie couldn't hide it. After the armored corps was completely built, he reported the specific situation to the brigade commander in detail.

The Brigadier was completely dumbfounded!
Ever since the Great Brigadier, Gong Xi Fa Cai, has he ever made such a mistake?
……

On the other side, Zhongtiaoshan area.

Wang Huaibao led the Fourth Independent Regiment and was also acting on both sides.

According to Wang Huaibao's plan, the main force of the three battalions of the fourth regiment is currently trapped in the encirclement of the Japanese army.

The next step is to attack from all sides, paralyzing the judgment of the Japanese army, making the Japanese army think that the fourth regiment can only try to break out of the encirclement in vain.

Under the cover of all this, the main force of the four regiments is secretly accumulating strength, waiting for an opportunity to appear at any time, and then breaking through the siege of the devils in one fell swoop.

The Independent Fourth Regiment at this time.

Han Feng, the commander of the Fourth Battalion, had already led the main force of the Fourth Battalion and jumped out of the encirclement of the Japanese army ahead of time.

First, the soldiers of the Fourth Battalion were originally composed of three mountain companies that had been fighting guerrillas in Zhongtiao Mountain for a long time, so they had extremely rich experience in mountain combat.

The second is to use the anti-tank rocket launcher in the hands of the accompanying anti-tank team.

Not to mention the armored forces that quickly destroyed the devils.

It also easily destroyed the Japanese strongholds and gun towers blocked along the way, and then calmly broke out.

Han Feng naturally also received news about the fact that his natal family had sent armored troops to the south for reinforcements.

Therefore, after leading the fourth battalion to break through the encirclement of the Japanese army.

Although he knew that the main force of the regiment was trapped in the encirclement of the Japanese army, Han Feng was not in a hurry.

He is very clear about where his focus should be right now:
"Our attack from the outside of the Japanese encirclement cannot be carried out rashly. The devils must have known the news of our breakout. I think they will definitely be prepared for our attack from the outside."

"So right now, it is more important for us to rush to the edge of Zhongtiao Mountain, join the armored troops sent by the old regiment commander, and then concentrate our forces to break through the Japanese defense from the outside."

All these tacit understandings seemed to have been discussed in advance by Kong Jie, Wang Shoucheng, Han Feng, and Wang Huaibao.

After making up his mind, Han Feng immediately arranged the deployment of each company.

"One company, two companies and three companies continued to try to raid the encirclement of the Japanese army from the outside. According to common sense, after our fourth battalion broke out of the encirclement, in order to rescue the main force of the encircled regiment, the most important operation should be carried out."

"Only by doing this, the little devil can completely relax!"

"The fourth company is in charge of supporting our armored troops in the edge area of ​​Zhongtiao Mountain!"

"Yes!"

Several company commanders responded in unison.

……

At this time, the Japanese army's general headquarters behind Zhongtiao Mountain.

The devil officers are also analyzing the current situation in Zhongtiao Mountain that continues to evolve.

After analyzing the combat map, one of the devil major generals pointed to a point on the map and said, "The main force of the Eighth Route Army in the Zhongtiao Mountain area has been completely encircled by our Japanese Empire's sweeping forces."

"In addition, according to intelligence, there is still a small part of the Eighth Route Army that broke through the encirclement ahead of time.

They had that new type of anti-tank weapon in their hands, and even directly destroyed our army's tank troops. "

"But our current focus should be on the main force of the encircled Eighth Route Army. As long as we can eliminate the main force of the Eighth Route Army, the Eighth Route Army that breaks out, even if it is well-equipped, will not be a threat."

"We can't encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army that breaks out out of the siege, and then cause mistakes in the battle plan to encircle the main force of the Eighth Route Army!"

Another ghost commander spoke with a sneer on his face:
"Your Excellency, Commander, the current battle situation is very clear. The main force of the Eighth Route Army is trapped in the encirclement circle by our army, and they keep trying to break out of the encirclement, but they are all repelled by our army's defense forces.

Eighth Road is already helpless.

As for the Eighth Route Army that broke out from the encirclement, news came from the front that they seemed to want to open a breakthrough from the outside to support the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the encirclement to break through.

It's a pity that they have too few troops, and it can only be a futile move
It now appears that it is only a matter of time before the main force of the Zhongtiaoshan Eighth Route Army is destroyed. "

"Yaoxi, it is true!"

"The Ministry of Communications immediately notified the mopping-up ministries, and continued to move forward steadily according to the original plan. We must completely wipe out the main force of the Eighth Route Army within the encirclement."

The commander-in-chief of the devil finally made a final decision and issued an order.

"Hi!"

……

With advanced communication equipment.

With the fourth company, Han Feng rushed all the way to the edge of Zhongtiao Mountain, and quickly contacted the first company of armored soldiers who had rushed to the outer area of ​​Zhongtiao Mountain through radio equipment.

Highlight the fourth battalion encircled by the Japanese army in advance and rush to meet them.

Wang Shoucheng was naturally overjoyed. With the cooperation of his main field force, the combat effectiveness that his armored company could display would be even stronger.

Now there is only one last level left.

It was completely blocked by the Japanese army, the only passage from the outer area of ​​Zhongtiao Mountain to the edge of Zhongtiao Mountain.

The Japanese army built a stronghold here, stationed a Japanese field squadron, and equipped with four gun towers to guard it strongly.

Therefore, even if Wang Shoucheng could personally lead a company of armored soldiers and forcibly break through the defense of the Japanese army, the armored company would eventually be exposed in advance due to combat.

In the future, if you want to break through the encirclement of the Japanese army from the periphery and support the main force of the Fourth Independent Regiment, it will be troublesome.

Fortunately, Han Feng arrived in time with Silian.

As for the well-equipped fourth company at the moment, they don't need any advantage in strength at all if they want to destroy the devil's stronghold and gun tower.

It only takes one round of shells.

If one round of shells is not enough, two rounds will come!

With time running out, Han Feng did not delay.

After quickly communicating with the command headquarters of the armored company, Han Feng directly issued a combat order.

The soldiers of the fourth company quickly launched a fierce attack on the Japanese stronghold.

As usual, it was the 2 small artillery, which cooperated with the M60 [-]mm mortar, and covered the Japanese stronghold with firepower.

The fierce firepower roared.

The Japanese army was suppressed in the strongholds and gun towers for a while, unable to raise their heads at all.

Everyone looked at the powerful firepower of the attacking Eighth Route Army in awe.

The devil commander hastily sent a call for help to the Japanese rear headquarters.

In the communication, the Japanese army stated: This Eighth Route Army unit that suddenly appeared from the inside of Zhongtiao Mountain is equipped with quite sophisticated American equipment, and its firepower is extremely powerful. It is storming the stronghold.

The communication is almost over.

With a loud bang, the anti-tank combat team, led by Jiang Hu, used anti-tank rockets to directly blow up the devil's two gun towers.

Now the little devils, who could only be forced to huddle in the stronghold building, became more and more panicked.

In the hands of the opponent's Eighth Route Army, it is clear that they have powerful artillery for attacking fortifications.

Under such circumstances, the defenses of the original gun towers and strongholds are basically useless, and may become a grave for burying the Japanese defenders.

The two sides fought for less than 10 minutes.

Various buildings in the Japanese stronghold, including several gun towers, were all destroyed by bombing.

Most of the stationed Japanese troops suffered casualties. Seeing that they could not resist, they hurriedly withdrew from the rear of the stronghold in embarrassment.

The soldiers of the fourth company chased all the way until they drove all the devils into the forest and disappeared without a trace, so they gave up.

Then all the vigilance in all directions was in place, and after it was confirmed that all the Japanese troops had retreated.

Under the command of Wang Shoucheng, the first company of armored soldiers quickly passed the mountain road originally guarded by the devil's stronghold, and formally entered the Zhongtiao mountain area.

"Fourth Battalion Commander!"

Both Wang Shoucheng and Han Feng were veteran cadres of the former independent regiment, and they had known each other for a long time.

The two met and hugged each other warmly.

To make a long story short.

Han Feng said: "The situation is urgent right now, the regiment leader and the others are still trapped in the encirclement of the devils, if you thank me, I will wait until the battle is over."

"Now I can only trouble the comrades to continue to work hard, start the battle quickly, break the encirclement of the devils, and first get the main force of the regiment out!"

"Okay!" Wang Shoucheng nodded heavily.

No one else knew better than him the power of the 24 armored vehicles he was leading at the moment.

His eyes are full of confidence: "Fourth Battalion Commander, just look at it, this is the first battle of the armored unit built by our old regiment commander.

We must give him a lot of color! "
