Chapter 955 The Great Counterattack of the [-]th Brigade
... The Japanese army wants to make a quick decision to avoid being passive. At this moment, the expression of Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the Devil's First Army, is vividly expressed-urgency, anxiety, anger, tension...

Once upon a time, the commander of the Japanese First Army, who was quite a general, lost his usual calm and demeanor when he faced the Eighth Route Army troops in the Taihang base area, especially the Eighth Route Army troops in the Iron Triangle.

"Immediately contact the 16rd, 385th, and the rest of the No.[-] mixed brigade. After quickly controlling the Eighth Route Army of the [-]th Brigade, immediately go north to attack the Eighth Route Army of the Iron Triangle!
The commotion in this battle has grown louder and louder.Even the international community has attracted a lot of attention.

My first army not only wants to win, but also to win a big victory, and wipe out all these damned Eighth Route Army in the shortest time! "

"These cunning Eighth Route Army are so cunning that they would launch such a propaganda offensive!"

Shinozuka Yoshio gritted his teeth with hatred.

The chief of staff, Bei Chuan, tried to comfort him: "General, the Eighth Route Army deliberately publicized this battle, just to publicize their Eighth Route Army's war of resistance.

If this battle is fought, our army can win quickly and directly defeat the Eighth Route Army troops in Taihang with an unstoppable advantage.

From another perspective, this can also suppress the anti-Japanese momentum of the Chinese armed forces in North China.

The key to everything lies in the outcome of this battle between the two sides! "

……

Under Shinozuka Yoshio's urgent order, the news was quickly conveyed to the headquarters of the 16rd, [-]th and No.[-] mixed brigades of the Japanese army.

After receiving the news, several old devils, led by Ishi Chuan, head of the devil brigade of the third mixed brigade belonging to the first army, quickly mobilized troops in an attempt to withdraw some elites from the base area of ​​the 385th brigade.

Then they went north to unite with the troops stationed in Mongolia who went south, and took the lead in attacking the three regiments of the Iron Triangle.

At this time, the Japanese and puppet troops launched this attack against the base of the 385th Brigade.

Everything seems to be still on the surface of the illusion.

Brigadier Chen, a seasoned fishing veteran, still held back and continued to lure the enemy deeper.

At this time, the third, ninth, and No. 16 mixed brigades were part of the elite devils, and with them the Royal Association Army troops, they were almost going deep into the hinterland of the 385th brigade base.

The Japanese and puppet troops advanced all the way.

The Eighth Route Army of the 385th Brigade kept throwing out bait.

It even includes some small arsenals, some front-line command organizations, and so on.

This further stimulated the Japanese army's idea of ​​completely destroying the 385 brigade.

In the process of advancing all the way, these little devils also seem to enjoy this overwhelming and unstoppable military advantage habitually.

This is much easier than dealing with the Iron Triangle Eighth Route Army troops.

At this time, with the transfer of time and space, the field of vision is condensed on an interesting character.

That was the North China Security Force unit, the Eighth Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army, who accompanied the 385rd Mixed Brigade to sweep the base of the [-]th Brigade this time.

Speaking of the Eighth Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army, it can be regarded as an old enemy of the Eighth Route Army.

——The one who was always bullied and suppressed by the Eighth Route Army.

From the time he managed to set up the eighth mixed brigade, it was temporarily placed in the cavalry battalion in Wanjia Town, and was intercepted by Li Yunlong, then deputy head of the independent regiment.

Yan Sanfu, the brigade commander of the Eighth Mixed Brigade, began a tragic career of being constantly "bullied" by the Eighth Route Army.

Later, in the fourth mixed brigade of the Japanese army, it was preparing to destroy the independent regiment.

The Eighth Mixed Brigade, as a dog's leg, was naturally the first to fight first.

As a result, it was covered by the firepower of the artillery unit of the independent regiment at that time, and the whole army was almost wiped out.

Since then, Yan Sanfu has set himself a rule that will never change:
The troops of the Eighth Route Army would not be provoked unless they were provoked, especially the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, this Kong Jie, who could not be provoked even if killed!
For this reason, Yan Sanfu even nicknamed Kong Jie "Kong Shaved Head".

why?
This leader Kong killed the devils and puppet soldiers, it was like someone had their head shaved.
After the disastrous defeat at the hands of the independent group, Kong Jie can be said to have left a great shadow in Yan Sanfu's heart.

Later, Yan Sanfu realized that the main force of the Eighth Route Army of the Independence Regiment must not be provoked. Under the surveillance and coercion of the Japanese army, he could only turn his troops around and prepare to target the local army and militia troops around the Iron Triangle.

Pick the persimmons softly first.

Yan Sanfu, who is bullying and afraid of hard work, believes that he is also the Eighth Mixed Brigade of the North China Security Army, with thousands of brothers under his command.

Even if you can't beat the main force of the Eighth Route Army, can you beat the head office of the local army and the militia?
Do some face-saving projects for the little devil to see.

As a result, after encountering the local army and even the militia around the Audio-Technica, Yan Sanfu found out with a face full of ghosts.

The Eighth Route Army here, even the local army and militia units, are simply not human.

The opponent's equipment is quite good, and some militiamen in the village, even his mother, used grenades.

Encountering some county brigades and district squads, they didn't talk about martial arts at all, and when they came up, they just bombarded them, and the combat troops of the [-]th Mixed Brigade were terrified.

How can this battle be fought?
After Yan Sanfu, who was almost beaten into tears, fled back in embarrassment, he had to lie about encountering the main force of the Iron Triangle in order to fool the Japanese army.

So far, Yan Sanfu has truly realized that the Eighth Route Army, whether it is the main force, the local army or the militia, cannot be provoked.

... "Traveler, Major General Ishikawa sent someone over again, urging us to hurry up and move forward!"

The news brought by the adjutant Da Congming interrupted Yan Sanfu's memories of the Iron Triangle, a team, and Kong Jie's past fears.

Yan Sanfu, who was suddenly frightened, shuddered, turned his head and glared at Da Congming: "Idiot, the devil told us to hurry up and move forward, so why don't we just foolishly go forward and die as cannon fodder?"

"But Traveler, if we keep dawdling like this, I'm afraid we will be caught by the little devil..."

"Don't worry about it so much, the Eighth Route Army can be easily provoked?

Unless Ishikawa puts a gun on my head, one step counts as one step, and one minute counts as one minute! "

"Hey, are you afraid of what happened when you attacked the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army?" Da Zhiming asked.

Yan Sanfu immediately scolded with a dark face: "Damn, why don't you open which pot and which pot are you carrying?"

"Impossible! Brigade, this is the 385th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army. There shouldn't be a team like the Iron Triangle."

As Da Congming said, he couldn't help swallowing.

The old fears seem to be fresh.

Yan Sanfu said: "Idiot, it doesn't matter if he is in the 385th Brigade or the 386th Brigade, as long as it is the Eighth Route Army, let's treat it as an iron triangle for the sake of prudence.

Can you guarantee that the 385th brigade does not have the Iron Triangle team?
Can you guarantee that Kong Shatou will not secretly send troops to hide in the 385 brigade to ambush us?

Taking ten thousand steps back, even if there is really no one, if we mess with the Eighth Route Army of the 385th Brigade, can we let us be spared if we turn around and shave our heads? "

Da Zhiming, who suddenly realized, gave a thumbs up: "Traveler, you still think far-reachingly, admire, admire!"

"Then what are we going to do next?"

"Hasn't the order from the head of the Ishikawa brigade already come down? Speed ​​up!"

"Ah??? Traveler, didn't you just talk about..."

"You're still out of breath when you say you're stupid, thanks to your nickname you're still called smart!

The devil told us to speed up, and didn't say we had to walk in a straight line. The mountain road twisted and twisted. We accidentally got lost and took a long detour, or did we go around it a few more times in which mountain?
What can the little devil say? "

As he spoke, Yan Sanfu snorted coldly.

"We just make a living under the hands of the devil, and want us to be cannon fodder? He devils don't even think about it!
It's just these three melons and two dates every month, what fate are we playing! "

……

Naturally, Ishikawa noticed the deliberate delay of the [-]th Mixed Brigade.

But right now is the time for employing people, although Shi Chuan is angry in his heart, it is not easy to explode.

As a result, the two Japanese brigades of the 385rd Mixed Dust Brigade took the lead in advancing to the hinterland of the [-]th Brigade base, leaving the [-]th Mixed Brigade behind.

These imperial association troops are timid and afraid of death. Without the Japanese army opening the way ahead, they will not advance honestly at all.

Then he received an order from the headquarters, asking him to send some elites from the [-]rd Mixed Brigade to go north quickly, after the United Army Garrisoned in Mongolia flanked the Iron Triangle.

Ishikawa immediately asked the Ministry of Communications to contact the two vanguard Japanese brigades, and ordered his troops to retreat a little, and be on guard against surprise attacks by the Eighth Route Army troops at any time.

Prepare to get a firm foothold and temporarily contain the Eighth Route Army of the 385th Brigade in the base area.

At this time, the Japanese army decided to put its military focus on the annihilation battle against the Eighth Route Army of the three regiments of the 386th Iron Triangle Brigade.

however……

The follow-up main force of the Japanese army, which had completely entered the base of the 385 brigade, retreated, and the movement was immediately transmitted to the headquarters of the 385 brigade.

It was learned that the Japanese army showed signs of retreating.

In addition to the temporary joint headquarters of the Audio-Technica, Ding Wei has also passed on the news.

The three regiments of the Audio-Technica have launched a fierce battle with the troops stationed in Mongolia going south.

In this case, Brigadier Chen naturally judged it at a glance.

The devils who are going to be transferred from his 385 brigade at the moment must be planning to go north to join the Mongolian army and attack the Iron Triangle.

That's okay, Brigadier Chen will naturally not let the little devil's wishful thinking succeed.

"We have waited patiently for so long, and the fish has basically entered the net, and the ministries are notified to collect the net immediately, so that the little devil cannot escape.

How can it be so easy to go north from our place to raid the Iron Triangle?

Do you really think that my 385 brigade base is where his little devil comes and leaves whenever he wants? "

After Brigadier Chen's order was issued, Commander Wang, who had been impatient for a long time, had nothing to say. He immediately led the main force of the 769 regiment, and with the momentum of thunder, launched a very abrupt counterattack against the Japanese and puppet troops who had entered the hinterland of the base.

boom -

The participation of artillery in combat is no longer a one-man show for the Japanese army.

After the long-awaited counter-offensive of the soldiers belonging to the 385th Brigade officially started, Commander Wang personally led the troops to attack one of the vanguard brigades of the Japanese army by secretly advancing multiple concealed artillery pieces.

Cannon fire rang out.

Take the lead in bombarding the artillery squad behind the Japanese brigade.

Brigadier Chen saw it very clearly. If he wanted to hold back the Japanese and puppet troops who were trying to retreat, he had to bite the devil's two vanguard battalions hard.

If the devils don't want to watch the two brigades completely wiped out, they must send troops to reinforce them.

The fierce battle between the two sides was on the verge of breaking out.

In the ensuing battle, the firepower configuration displayed by the main combat units of the 385th Brigade, which was no longer holding back, completely exceeded the expectations of the Japanese and puppet troops.

Especially the two devil captains leading the vanguard, like the tip of a knife, advancing towards the hinterland of the 385 brigade's base, looked even more horrified.

Along the way, they fought against the Eighth Route Army troops of the 385th Brigade several times.

Among them, many main combat units of the Eighth Route Army with relatively uniform uniforms were seen.

The opponent's firepower configuration is quite ordinary, the equipment is very backward, the firepower is sparse, and even the artillery has not been encountered.

For this reason, the Eighth Route Army, which retreated in embarrassment, was even forced to abandon some arsenals, headquarters and various military buildings.

This made the Japanese army more and more certain that the Eighth Route Army troops of the 385th Brigade were nothing more than that.

Until now, the Eighth Route Army, which had been ready to go, made a full-scale move.

Only then did the Japanese and puppet troops realize that what they had always thought of as sheep turned out to be tigers.

These cunning Eighth Route Army have been testing the enemy's weakness from the beginning to the end, deliberately luring the enemy to go deep.

As for the various military buildings such as arsenals and headquarters that the Japanese army believed that the Eighth Route Army had no time to evacuate, they were forced to abandon them.

How would they know that it was some disguised military construction for the 385 brigade at the suggestion of Kong Jie, and later Shi Dahu brought people to help.

It was purely used to fool the little devils and lure the Japanese army to gradually step into the ambush circle in the hinterland of the base.

"kill!"

Da da da--

boom -

There are shouts of killing, gunshots, and cannons everywhere.

What can be seen around is the well-equipped Eighth Route Army troops, dressed in neat uniforms and with extremely fierce firepower, rushing towards them like scourges.

It was the two vanguard brigades of the Japanese army that were the first to fall into the siege area of ​​​​the soldiers of the 385th Brigade.

The two vanguard brigades of the devils were divided into two groups to advance, each with about 800 main force.

But at this moment, it was as if they had suddenly emerged from the woods. A large number of the main force of the Eighth Route Army completely crushed the Japanese army in terms of strength.

The excellent firepower configuration made the devil officer who commanded the battle break out in a cold sweat.

In their previous battles, they thought that the equipment was outdated and the ammunition was scarce. The firepower configuration presented at this moment is only the 50mm mortar, that is, the captured and modified grenade, and even equipped with To the squad platoon level combat unit.

Used as squad-level support artillery.

Based on this alone, the squad-level artillery fire advantage displayed by the soldiers of the 385th Brigade is no less than that of the Japanese army.

And launched a surprise attack with the help of the condescending terrain.

With the right time, place and people, the 385th brigade took over.

After the ambush troops from all walks of life made quick moves, the two vanguard brigades of the devil immediately fell into a bitter battle.

The movement and news of the fierce battle ahead were quickly transmitted to the rear.

It is learned that the two vanguard brigades have fallen into the siege of the Eighth Route Army troops, and the situation is critical.

Ishi Chuan, an old devil who had just issued an order to dispatch elite troops northward to reinforce the Mongolian Army, was stunned.

what's the situation?
At this juncture?
"Reporting to the brigade commander, there have been urgent communications from the [-]st and [-]nd Battalions requesting tactical guidance.

They encountered a large number of the main force of the Eighth Route Army. In addition, according to the news, the Eighth Route Army's previous operations had always concealed firepower.
Our vanguard troops are struggling to support at the moment, and there is a risk of annihilation at any time! "

"Nani?"

Ishikawa was a little dumbfounded, Eight Routes had concealed firepower, did it suddenly explode at this moment?
The urgency of the situation did not allow him to think too much. It is indeed important to go north to reinforce the Mongolian army, but right now his two brigades are surrounded by the Eight Route Army, this is the most urgent thing.

Ishikawa, who didn't dare to delay, quickly ordered to send two additional Japanese brigades to reinforce the direction of the vanguard brigade.

The third mixed brigade was originally planning to go north to reinforce the Mongolian army, but it was temporarily delayed...
