Beacon starts from the departure of a strong man

Ji Zhangjian also has a hot temper. His old unit, the Third Military Police Regiment, although it is a regiment, its troop organization is a brigade.

During the Battle of Songhu, Ji Zhangjian's old troops were almost wiped out!

After training the troops at the back, he had not yet had a second battle with the Japanese army. Now that he was encircling and annihilating the 106th Division, he had to personally destroy the Japanese army's prestige.

Feng Zhanhai saw Ji Zhangjian wearing a steel helmet and holding a submachine gun. He understood that the other party was preparing to lead the charge himself.

When Ji Zhangjian went out, he turned to look at Feng Zhanhai.

In Feng Zhanhai's view, Ji Zhangjian's look seemed to say: "Boy, I'm not like you, cowardly hiding in the headquarters!"

"Guards!" Feng Zhanhai's eyes widened. As a member of the Northeast Army, the Northeast Army had been infamy since entering the customs with Marshal Zhang. He, Feng Zhanhai, had also been scolded many times.

Ji Zhangjian's current appearance clearly looks down on the Northeastern Army.

"Guard... Guard, get me a helmet quickly."

Feng Zhanhai took on his helmet and put it on, holding the box cannon in both hands, and was about to go out. Then, he saw the door of the headquarters being pushed open!

Ji Zhangjian came back, and Feng Zhanhai was about to say something sarcastic when he saw someone from the Sichuan Army supervising the team not far behind Ji Zhangjian.

The people from the Sichuan Army Supervisory Team entered the headquarters, and a major said: "According to the orders of the National Revolutionary Army's Second Route Army and the Sichuan Army's 22nd Group Army, the division commander of each division must stay at the headquarters."

"Commanding the battle of the entire division, you cannot personally lead the troops to charge."

Major Li glanced at Feng Zhanhai and Ji Zhangjian: "You two, you should stay at the headquarters with peace of mind and put this guy down."

Ji Zhangjian sighed and handed the submachine gun to his guard!

Feng Zhanhai saw the major of the Sichuan Army supervising the team and looked at him. He also handed over the box cannons in his left and right hands to the guards.

The Japanese 106th Division camped on several hills in Wanjialing. The most central troops were engineers, baggage troops and artillery.

Because the Sichuan Army buried explosives and special smoke underground, the center of the 106th Division was bombarded. After the explosives and poison gas bombs were detonated, a large poisonous area was formed in the central area.

Coupled with the influence of the terrain, when the breeze blows at night, the Japanese camp is like a sandwich. The innermost layer is the poison area, then the second layer is the safe area, and the third layer is the poison area again.

As a result, the Japanese 106th Division directly divided the poison gas into several areas.

If several infantry regiments of the 106th Division want to meet up, they must pass through the poison zone!

At the headquarters of the 106th Division in the center, they were the first to put on gas masks when the first round of poison gas exploded. When the second round of artillery fire struck, they each found bunkers to avoid the shelling.

After the Republic of China army's artillery attack ended, Matsuura Junrokuro immediately got up from the ground, counted the casualties, and asked the guards to immediately take the headquarters radio and run up the mountain.

The headquarters of the 106th Division was set up halfway up the mountain. Now this area was attacked by poisonous gas. The poisonous gas was everywhere under the mountain and in the valley.

Matsuura Junrokuro planned to run to the mountain, and then planned to go down from the other side of the mountain to re-establish the headquarters!

Climbing up the mountain in one breath, Matsuura Junrokuro looked at the artillery regiment of his division.

The five artillery regiments are all in the center of the team, ready to provide fire support to the entire division. The artillery positions are all halfway up the mountain.

Now the central area of ​​the division is filled with poisonous gas, coupled with the large-caliber artillery bombardment of the Sichuan Army!

Several artillery positions were now on fire. Matsuura Junrokuro knew that 80% of the artillery units were already cold.

When the five artillery regiments of the Japanese army suffered the first round of attacks, the more clever Japanese soldiers immediately put on gas masks. At the same time, the commander immediately ordered the transfer of artillery.

Among the artillery regiments of the 106th Division, only the 52nd Mountain Artillery Regiment is relatively complete, possessing 20 75mm Type mountain guns;

The remaining artillery regiments are almost exhausted, with only one or two artillery pieces left in each regiment.

Since Matsuura Junrokuro had not yet set up the radio station, the Japanese army's command system was in chaos, and the Japs' defense line had been torn open by the Central Army, Sichuan Army, and Cantonese Army.

The army of the Republic of China is as powerful as a rainbow, and the more they fight, the more courageous they become!

In particular, the Fourth Army of the Cantonese Army penetrated directly into the Japanese's first line of defense and formed a sharp knife with the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army. The Japanese army and the Republic of China army are now engaged in offensive and defensive battles based on the terrain. Mortars and Type infantry guns from both sides fired at each other, and light and heavy machine guns continued to suppress each other.

In terms of firepower, the Japanese army is now at a disadvantage. Once the Central Army cannot capture the Japanese position, it will immediately call in the heavy artillery of the Sichuan Army and the Central Army's heavy artillery.

In the headquarters, Wang Yaowu saw the 51st Division under his command. Once the attack was blocked, he called himself to tell himself that artillery support was needed.

Lao Wang had no choice but to contact the artillery unit by phone and informed the frontline troops that they needed heavy artillery fire.

It made Lao Wang think that he was no longer a division commander, but more like an operator, delivering messages to frontline troops and heavy artillery troops.

As the battle progresses smoothly, the attacking armies and division, brigade and regiment level headquarters are now moving forward.

Eastern front!

Zhang Kang's regiment fought fast and hard, opening the way with grenades and mortars in front, suppressing it with submachine gun and light and heavy machine gun fire, and then the infantry advanced.

Especially the M2 heavy machine gun and the Civilian Type 26 general-purpose machine gun. If they are used against the Japanese army, it is like an adult beating a child. All they have to do is attack the weak point of the Japanese army's defense.

The enemy's defense will soon loosen, and then the troops will press forward across the board, and the Japanese position will soon be captured.

The bunkers built by the Japanese army did not play a big role. These temporary bunkers were not reinforced concrete buildings;

Facing 150mm heavy artillery and 105mm howitzers, these bunkers could not withstand a few rounds before they collapsed.

4th Army Headquarters!

Ou Zhen used a telescope to look ahead and get the battle situation. His troops were progressing smoothly.

The 59th Division has successfully joined the 122nd Division of the Sichuan Army. The two armies have completely captured the first line of defense of the Japanese army on the eastern front. Now the two armies are rushing towards the second line of defense of the Japanese army.

The 90th Division is currently attacking a commanding height of the Japanese army. The Japanese army entrenched on this commanding height is about a large group.

The Japanese troops of this brigade relied on the terrain to suppress the 90th Division's attack!

Ou Zhen put down the telescope: "Get Chen Kan for me and ask him how long it will take to capture the Japanese army's hilltop. If we can't capture it within half an hour."

"Stop being a division commander and come to the military headquarters to feed the horses."

The signal soldier nodded: "Yes!"

At the headquarters of the 90th Division, Chen Kan was working with his staff on how to solve the current dilemma.

"Division Commander, the latest order from the Army Commander."

Chen Kan took the telegram from the signal soldier's hand. After taking a look, he looked at everyone: "Everyone, the commander has given me an ultimatum."

"Within half an hour, even if I lose my front teeth, I will still win this mountain top for me."

"I order the entire division's artillery to concentrate on me and bomb the Japanese hills."

"At the same time, call the military commander and ask him to contact the heavy artillery. The Japanese army on the mountain has four 94-type mountain artillery, which our artillery can't reach."

"Heavy artillery assistance is needed to destroy the Japanese artillery positions."

The commander of the Japanese artillery on the mountain took advantage of the height of the mountain to use the inertia of the cannon when it ejected from the chamber, which greatly increased the range of the Type 8 mountain cannon from kilometers to kilometers. (End of chapter)
