Bright Sword: Hosting the independent regiment, all become special forces

Chapter 203 Shouyang City is broken, and Japanese reinforcements arrive.

"Call the brigade commander directly, I'll come!"

Zhang Wei came to the phone quickly: "I am Zhang Wei, the commander of the special column, and I will meet the commander of the mobile corps, Brigadier Chen!"

The brigade commander was worrying about these staff officers at this time. The devil's bombers almost never stopped, and their material transportation was seriously affected.

In the past, it was fine if there was no ammunition, but now there are ammunition and shells, so they cannot be delivered.

"Chief, Zhang Wei from the special column is looking for you!"

"This kid Zhang Wei is looking for me?" The brigade commander came to the phone with doubts: "Hello! Zhang Wei, what's the matter?"

Zhang Wei went straight to the topic and said: "Report to the brigade commander, the shells cannot be delivered, and we have no artillery support."

The brigade commander immediately interrupted: "I know that the front attack is very difficult, but I tell you, if there is no condition, you have to give me the opportunity. Before dark, you must take Shouyang County!"

Zhang Wei then said: "Brigade Commander, I request that the anti-aircraft artillery regiment be deployed one kilometer in front of the special regiment's position."

"You boy, what are you going to do? The devil's plane is not staring at you now, you need to know what the anti-aircraft artillery regiment does?"

"Reporting to the brigade commander, the Japanese army is currently retreating into the city. With the advantage of the defenders, they want to consume our troops. If we attack forcefully, the casualties will be heavy. I plan to let the engineering company of the Special First Regiment use high-yield explosives to directly blast the city walls and gates. , hoping to receive good results.

At that time, it was designed for high-level and flat-purpose. In my impression, the anti-aircraft gun is also high-level and flat-purpose. Without the curved artillery, even the direct artillery can bring us a lot of support. Please approve! "

The brigade commander put the phone aside, and whispered to the people beside him: "Zhang Wei requested that the anti-aircraft artillery regiment be deployed before the Special First Regiment, and directly fire at the Japanese defensive positions!"

The political commissar next to him couldn't help persuading: "Old Chen, it is indeed difficult for the troops to attack fortified positions, and there are no artillery shells at the moment. I think it is better to follow what Zhang Wei said. Shouyang's garrison brigade has no ability to fight back. Our anti-aircraft artillery battalion Very safe!"

The brigade commander nodded: "I'm going to call the anti-aircraft artillery regiment now!"

Zhang Wei hung up the phone, turned to Zhang Dabiao and said, "Quickly, order the engineering company and let them prepare to blast the city wall."

"Yes!"

More than two hours later, the anti-aircraft artillery regiment was neatly deployed in front of the position,

It is not that the Japanese army did not discover these artillery pieces. When Captain Jin Chuangang saw these direct-firing artillery pieces, he immediately wanted to lead his troops to attack the anti-aircraft artillery positions.

The devils who had just assembled were shot back by dozens of light and heavy machine guns before they had time to charge.

When Zhang Wei passed by, he saw these baby lumps and couldn't help but stepped forward to touch them. The little soldier didn't know Zhang Wei and hurriedly shouted: "Don't touch it, what if it breaks!"

The monk has a bad temper. Seeing the soldier's bad attitude, he immediately kicked him: "You're blind, this is the commander of our special column!"

Seeing the monk making a move, Zhang Wei immediately stopped him: "Monk, what's the matter with you! Who told you to do it with this little comrade! Apology!"

The monk said unconvinced: "Head, this kid has such a bad attitude towards you, I will teach him a lesson!"

Zhang Wei didn't speak, and threw the [-]th style in his hand to Duan Peng, and repeated: "Apology!"

Seeing Zhang Wei's gesture of wanting to make a move, the monk immediately faltered: "I'm sorry, brother!"

"That's right, we are all reasonable people, we can't do it easily, especially you, monk, you must learn to reason in the future."

The little soldier blushed, patted his buttocks and stood up: "Chief, I'm sorry, this thing is not allowed to be touched indiscriminately according to the regulations. This thing is really precious."

Zhang Wei said with a smile: "Don't worry, I designed this thing! You go and tell your leader, and I will hand over this cannon!"

"This!"

Duan Peng answered from the side: "You can go if you are told, there is so much nonsense!"

The head of the anti-aircraft artillery regiment was named Ma He, and he was also an old comrade. When he saw Zhang Wei, he didn't feel that Zhang Wei was not qualified enough, so he took the lead in saluting politely.

"I actually don't understand. Even with the 37 guns, we can't effectively kill the city wall. Why should we be transferred here?"

Zhang Wei smiled and explained: "The main purpose of the anti-aircraft artillery regiment is not to directly shoot at the city wall. Your suppression effect is much better than that of machine guns. The Special First Regiment is already organizing engineers to prepare for a comprehensive blast on the city wall."

"After 10 minutes, start suppressing firepower! Aim the design target at the Japanese devils on the city wall! Don't be stingy with the ammunition, but you can't use up all the fucking ones. If the devils come and run out of ammunition, they will be Muggles! have you understood?"

"I understand!"

After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he sat up, and the monk beside him also wanted to help, so he hurriedly said, "Head, why don't you let me try it later?"

"Look first, learn a bit, and I'll shoot you two shots later!"

Upon hearing this, Duan Peng said anxiously: "Leader, I also want to try."

"Little comrade, teach them how to load ammunition!"

"Yes!"

Ten minutes later, Zhang Wei's ears were stuffed with cotton, and the engineer company behind the position was ready, and the devils on the city wall hid behind and waited in full force, praying that the shells would not fall on him.

As two red signal flares rose towards the sky, 24 37mm anti-aircraft guns and twenty 20MM anti-aircraft machine guns fired together. It hurts from the shock of the brain.

The Japanese soldiers hiding behind the sandbags and the city walls were unlucky and were pierced by the shells and smashed to the ground. If they were lucky, they were naturally fine.

A white mist rose from the surrounding anti-aircraft machine guns and machine guns, and Zhang Wei stopped firing at the right time. These few blows made his brain hurt from the shock, and the soldiers of the engineering company also shot this time. Afterwards, it assaulted a distance of almost 500 meters.

As for the Japanese army, they had long lost the intention of defending the city wall, and they all retreated inside. There were only a handful of defenders in front of Shouyang, and only a few observation posts remained on the city wall.

The soldiers of the engineering company rushed to the bottom of the city wall almost under any attack. The soldiers dug the soil frantically and planted explosives.

This time, in order to determine the power of the explosion, the engineer company used all the high-quality explosives and even black powder that it had left, in order to reduce the casualties of the troops.

Everyone was looking forward to it skillfully, and most of the explosives packs of the soldiers were secured.

The engineer company commander gave an order: "Detonate!"

The soldiers ignited the fuze and quickly retreated. After running for more than 300 meters, most of the soldiers found a suitable position and lay down. Zhang Wei also subconsciously covered his ears.

"Boom!"

As if the gods had descended into the world, the sound of continuous explosions was even more terrifying than the power of 150mm heavy artillery. The old city wall of Shouyang County, which was close to 400 meters, began to collapse amidst the sound of continuous explosions.

The Japanese army defending the city was dumbfounded at this moment. You must know that when they attacked Shouyang County, they were not only assisted by aircraft, tanks and heavy artillery, but also failed to collapse the city wall.

"Baga! Command the warriors of the Great Japanese Empire, must hold the line of defense!"

Seeing that the city wall had collapsed and there was no threat from the outer positions, the soldiers of the special regiment, which had an absolute advantage in numbers, rushed up.

At the same time, the mortar company fired all the shells they had left, and the Japanese army who was waiting in full battle in the county immediately fell into a sea of ​​flames and fled indiscriminately.

The Japanese army had lost hope of victory, so naturally they had no fighting power. The soldiers of the Black Tiger Special War Brigade also cooperated with the soldiers of the Special First Regiment to attack Shouyang County.

At the same time, the support troops of the Japanese army were only more than 30 miles away from Shouyang County, and they had already reached their ambush range of the Langya Special Battle Brigade.

Originally, according to the plan, the target of their ambush should only be brigade-level devils. However, Geng Jihui found out from the situation in the telescope that the Japanese army must have at least one regiment-level force.

Geng Jihui's face became extremely ugly: "It's broken, the devil's army is at least at the regiment level, order the army to turn off the safety, be careful of fire, let them go!"

Zhuang Yan was a little anxious when he heard that: "What? Let's stop fighting? Then didn't we come for nothing?"

Geng Jihui shook his head: "Let go of their infantry and artillery brigades, and attack their supply brigades! We'll wait!"

Time passed slowly, and an hour later, the fighting in Shouyang County was basically over. With the support of members of the Black Tiger Special Operations Brigade, the street fighting in the city ended quickly.

"Ding! The current task is completed, and the reward has been issued."

"Ding! The current new task has been released: assist in the defense of Shouyang County.

Task requirements: Persevere for 24 hours.

Countdown: 23.59 points.

Task reward: 500 points, industrial technology blueprint*1"

Zhang Wei immediately understood that the system would not release missions indiscriminately. Since he was given the mission of defense, it is natural to judge from the comparison of combat power that if they attack now, they will probably lose more than win, so they will This happens.

At this moment, the devils were only two or three miles away from the county seat, and the Japanese soldiers who came to support them were silent. Their high-flying military flags were slowly falling in their eyes, and then the flag of the special regiment was raised.

This group of devils stared fiercely at Shouyang County, and the soldiers of the Special First Regiment and the Black Tiger Special Forces Brigade in the county had already boarded the city wall at this time.

Holding up his binoculars, Zhang Wei looked at the Japanese army preparing artillery positions in the distance, and immediately ordered the soldiers of the Special Operations Brigade to leave the battle. Under such battlefield conditions, their combat effectiveness could at best be battalion-level firepower. Something that only a certain chief and deputy army can do.

The soldiers of the Special First Regiment have not yet gained a firm foothold. Although they saw that the Japanese army was preparing artillery positions, they could not charge directly. There were at least [-] Japanese soldiers waiting in full force outside the city. Shooting makes no difference.

The soldiers decided to rely on the city defense to deal with the devils.

Zhang Dabiao learned the news before he even entered the city, and in desperation he reported the truth to the higher authorities.

When the brigade commander heard this, he immediately ordered Shen Quan's Special Second Regiment to support the Special First Regiment. The original Special Second Regiment was planning to take the battlefield again when they attacked Taiyuan, but unfortunately the plan could not keep up with the changes.

At this stage, if the Special Second Regiment Headquarters does not step in to help, it will be difficult to defend with Zhang Dabiao's regiment and the isolated city.

"Your Excellency, Captain, Shouyang County is sure that our army has survived. A large enemy force was found ahead, and a large number of enemy anti-aircraft artillery was found in the north of Shouyang County."

Fumio Takemura nodded: "Start attacking!"

"Hay!"

It was only over an hour before dark, and both sides knew that this attack was only a tentative attack, and nothing could be hit at all. The special regiment needed to know the size of the attacking devils, and the attacking devils were also eager to know how to defend. What is the level of the Eighth Route Army?

"What's the matter? Can you directly lead the troops to launch an attack?" Zhang Dabiao asked in a hurry.

"No, at least one infantry regiment of the Japanese army is fully equipped and equipped with a large number of artillery. I looked through the telescope and it should be infantry artillery. The number is not large. It is estimated that the size of a brigade has not been strengthened."

After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he thought of the Spike Special Battle Brigade who had ambushed according to the original plan: "But don't worry, they rushed over so quickly, the supply troops must be hanging far away. According to the original plan, the Spike Special Battle Brigade was in ambush at them. It only needs to persist for a while, and the Japanese army will naturally be powerless to attack."

"Yes! I'm going to organize the defense!"

Zhang Wei was not idle either, and went straight back to the forward command post. Li Nian was still packing up with his troops, preparing to set up a command post in Shouyang County.

Zhang Wei stopped him: "Political Commissar Li, the Japanese army's support troops have arrived and are preparing to attack the city now. There is no need to clean up. This telephone line will continue to be used."

Li Nian was taken aback after hearing this: "So fast? It only took half a day."

After finishing speaking, he picked up a pencil and ruler and drew a picture: "According to the plan, even the Japanese army who rushed over from Taiyuan City would take at least one day to support them."

Zhang Wei nodded: "That's right, so if these devils came here in a hurry, they should be lightly dressed. I guess we were unlucky, and we happened to run into the Japanese troops transferred from Taiyuan to Yangquan for support. "

Li Nian unfolded the map: "If this is the case, the Japanese army in Yangquan County is less than 3000 people. With Commander Li's strength, they should be able to take Yangquan County, right?"

Outside Yangquan City, artillery fire roared, and the offensive formation of the Eighth Route Army soldiers was directly blown apart.

Masato Iwatani, the new head of the Sixth Division, nodded in satisfaction: "I thought Li Yunlong's troops were amazing, except that their offensive formation had some tricks, that's all. Repel, let alone the warriors of our Great Japanese Empire, if we fought hand-to-hand with them, I am afraid that these Chinese soldiers would have been scared to pee their pants?"

"Hahahaha!"

A group of combat staff laughed proudly. Some of their officers were transferred from the Kwantung Army, and some were transferred from Japan, so they don't know much about the situation on the battlefield in Northwest Shanxi. It sounded the alarm for them, so they were extremely cautious about the troops of the Eighth Route Army.

Otherwise, just a tentative attack would not attract a large number of artillery strikes.

Li Yunlong slapped his thigh at the forward command post, and said viciously: "These guns look at me greedy, mother, sooner or later I have to give my surname Li, order the artillery regiment, and start artillery attacks on Yangquan City, by the way, wait until after dark Do it again!"

"Yes!"
