Chapter 343 Gathering at the foot of the main peak (2)

The ghost and puppet army in Fengxin County became the first team among the three teams to reach the main peak of Meiling.

The devils at the front did not choose to stop when they were 300 meters away like Beichuan. When they saw that the foot of the southwest mountain was empty, they raised their guns and continued to move forward in an offensive posture.

For these soldiers and the squad leaders in the ranks, it would be a shining honor to capture a regiment headquarters of the Chongqing Army.

Seeing this scene, Bei Chuan frowned and cursed, "Ba Ga, these soldiers are always so reckless!"

From Bei Chuan's point of view, as the regiment headquarters of the Meiling Chongqing Army, there are unavoidable obstacles in front of it, but after all the troops in the rear are assembled, let the Imperial Association Army make a tentative attack in front.

Sure enough, the frontier devils who were fighting bravely went inward for less than 30 meters, and a series of explosions tumbling, each explosion crater formed a conspicuous interception line on the ground. The devils were all covered in the explosion range and were fragmented, and the dozen or so devils immediately behind the front were either injured or disabled.

The explosion right in front of them made the devils who looked at the peak of the Chongqing Army Headquarters and their blood surged sober instantly. Their mine-sweeping engineers had already been reimbursed.

When Beichuan surveyed more than half of the circle around the foot of the main peak of Meiling, the army of devils on the east side also arrived.

After Beichuan finished walking around and climbed a tree to get an outline of the main peak of Meiling in his heart through the telescope, there were sounds of marching in the woods on the northwest side.

The devils and puppet troops of Anyi County, which are farthest from the main peak of Meiling, arrived here last.

The devils in Fengxin County suffered first, but the two groups of devils who came later did not rush forward.

At this moment, Sanlu Guizi stopped 300 meters away from the foot of the mountain, and the fiery light above his head poured down vertically from among the leaves.

Nan Tian, ​​as the captain, had the highest military rank, so he naturally became the temporary supreme commander of the three-way encirclement and suppression force.

At this moment, among the devils and puppet troops gathered at the foot of Meiling Mountain, there are 680 devils and 350 puppet troops arriving here on the east side of Meiling, a total of more than 440; There are more than [-] people; and the devils and puppet troops who arrived here from the stronghold of Changbu Town have more than [-] devils and puppet troops.

Compared with the more than 1000 devils and puppet troops just before entering the mountain, the remaining 680 soldiers led by Nantian arrived at the main peak of Meiling. The remaining 300 people are not reduced by half, but there are three groups of devils and puppet troops with a total of [-] people. Chongqing Army.

There were more than [-] devils from the Three Routes, and they surrounded the entire Meiling main peak in two circles. The inner and outer circles were separated by a hundred meters.

Faced with the fact that there were landmines in front of the devils in Fengxin County, Nantian immediately ordered, "You guys, cut down trees on the spot!"

There are no mine-sweeping engineers under his command anymore. Nantian did not let the Huangxie soldiers clear the mines physically, but decided to clear the mines violently.

It's not that he cherishes the lives of the soldiers of the Imperial Association Army, it's just that Nantian doesn't want the value of these soldiers of the Imperial Association Army to be used up here.

After seeing the bunker entrenched on Meiling through the binoculars, Nantian knew that the next attack on the mountain would not be easy, and he needed the troops of the Imperial Association Army to play their value when they attacked the mountain.

The so-called violent demining means that Nantian asked a group of devils and puppet soldiers to cut down trees, cut off the trunks and threw them on the ground. Under the gravity, the landmines under the ground would explode naturally.

The trees are lined up side by side to form a "trunk road" going forward.

The group power of more than [-] devils and puppet troops in the inner circle made the speed of cutting trees very fast. The trees felled not only paved the way forward, but also included building an "interception line". Between two trees that have not been cut down, every time a tree trunk "intercept line" is erected, two or three devils will stand behind with guns, and soon a huge circle will be built around the foot of the main peak of Meiling. Trunk intercept line.

The outer encirclement is entirely composed of devils, who are responsible for blocking the Chongqing army from behind. The same devils also built a "trunk front".

During the whole process, neither the regiment soldiers on the mountain nor the three battalion officers and soldiers behind the devils stood and watched the devils' construction under their noses, but Nantian selected two groups of devils with a total of [-] people in the encirclement circle on both sides inside and outside. .

The fifty devils in the inner encirclement are responsible for intercepting the Chongqing army coming down from the mountain. Wherever there is gunfire, the fifty devils will rush there. The devils want to record the places where the Chongqing army has passed, but they are soon dazzled. .

The outer encirclement with only fifty devils is very difficult to deal with the endless harassment. From time to time, devils and puppet soldiers who are cutting down trees are killed by bullets flying from the woods. At this time, Beichuan led his special operation The team took the initiative to help defend the outer circle, and at the same time, each tree trunk "interception line" was equivalent to a section of defense.

Slowly, the devils in the outer circle stabilized their formation.

Of course, this was mainly because Li Chong's regiment did not officially launch an attack.

If the officers and soldiers of the three outer battalions directly attacked the devils who had just arrived at the foot of Meiling Mountain and had yet to gain a firm foothold, the devils would naturally not be able to form a "trunk line" smoothly, but that also fell into the way Nantian and the devils hoped.

As far as Nantian is concerned, he actually doesn't want to build a "trunk front" before attacking the main peak of Meiling, because he already knows the current situation, he has surrounded the Chongqing Army, but he was also surrounded by the Chongqing Army on the periphery, and he I don't know how many people there are in the peripheral Chongqing army.

If the Chongqing army launches an attack directly, it will happen to achieve the goal of a decisive battle with the Chongqing army in the mountain directly at the foot of the main peak of Meiling. According to intelligence, the strength of the Chongqing army in Meiling is only one regiment, and some of the Chongqing army is being killed by its own. The three groups of soldiers were chasing after them. Nantian was confident that he could overcome the disadvantages of the gas bombs and completely wipe out the Chongqing army with the advantage of troops.

Besides, once the battle started at the bottom of the mountain, the Chongqing army on the mountain would definitely not just squat in the bunker, so Nantian thought that he could avoid the process of attacking the bunker, which was a process with huge casualties.

But Li Chong, who is currently living in the regiment headquarters on the main peak, also understands that if he launches an attack now, he will fall into the hands of the devil, and if he takes the initiative to attack, the bunker system he has carefully built on the mountain will lose its due effect. The current situation is doomed. It kicked off by launching an attack on its own initiative.

Therefore, Li Chong ordered the officers and soldiers of the three battalions through telegrams to still focus on guerrilla attacks, and use conventional grenade gas bombs to kill the devils at a long distance. Battalions still have to keep in mind the goal of casualty control.
