Chapter 167
Shinozuka Yoshio had just received the news that the aviation unit had not returned at the First Army Headquarters in Taiyuan, and was about to notify the various devil units below, but unexpectedly received a telegram from the Sixth Japanese Engineer Corps.

Looking at this telegram stating that he was seriously injured by the heavy artillery of the Chinese army, Shinozuka Yoshio was very depressed.

Since the September 918th Incident to the present 1939, neither the North China Front Army nor Shinozuka Yoshio have suffered such a big loss!
The current Japanese army does not have the most basic and important information such as the specific number of troops, the number of equipment, and the type of equipment of the Red Police Force. Even if they want to evaluate the combat effectiveness of this Chinese army, the little devils find that they cannot do it!
Not to mention how to deal with the tactics used by the Red Police Force!

The intelligence department's intelligence collection progress for this force has also been stagnant.

So Yoshio Shinozuka had no choice but to send the telegram to each unit, trying to get as much information as possible about the Red Police unit, even if he could send the information on the types of weapons used by the other party!

The Japanese troops who received the telegram from the First Army Headquarters were powerless to do anything about the orders from the Headquarters. After all, the devils on the front line were facing a very harsh environment at this time.

Those facing a better environment have to face the mines and artillery of the Red Police Force. The troops with a bad environment have already seen the locusts under the leadership of the brigade leader!
"Your Excellency, Commander? Do you want to send another batch of air teams over there?" A Japanese staff officer suggested to Yoshio Shinozuka.

Shinozuka Yoshio was still a little moved by this suggestion, but thinking of the remaining aviation power at this time, he still dispelled this idea.

In 1938, the Devils' aviation units were mainly deployed in East China and South China. After all, these were the key supply areas for the Devils. For North China, which has been defined as the "behind enemy lines", the Little Devils did not have much aviation force.

The loss of five fighter jets is enough to scare the fighter unit of the First Army. It is better to use infantry or infantry.

On the other hand, the Sixth Wing of Devil Engineers on the front line of demining began to retreat across the board after encountering the shelling of the Red Police Force, waiting for the artillery troops in the rear to cover them with artillery, and to give the surrounded Devil troops in this dangerous minefield Open up a way of life.

"How long will it take for the artillery unit to be ready?" the captain of the Sixth Engineering Corps asked the signal soldier beside him.

"Your Excellency, Captain, the rear artillery unit will be able to arrange the artillery positions in about half an hour."

"well!"

At this time, within the core area of ​​the Dagushan base area.

Zhang Shijie, Zhang Ning, and Chen Xi are discussing the next action plan in the headquarters.

Regarding the next offensive move, Chen Xi and Zhang Ning had a disagreement.Chen Xi advocated that after the troops are assembled, they should quickly launch a full-scale attack on the eastern front in the direction of Taiyuan.On the other hand, Zhang Ning advocated stopping the attack on the Japanese army after launching a small-scale attack on the Japanese army.

"Chief, according to our previous plan, our combat intention has been fully realized after blocking the supply line and annihilating the No. 30 Sixth Brigade of the Japanese Army. Under the current situation, if we keep the devils in check, it is very easy to have a counterattack." Effect!" Zhang Ning calmly stated his point of view.

As Chen Xi was recruited relatively late, he didn't know Zhang Shijie's previous arrangements and plans.

Afterwards, Zhang Shijie briefly explained to Chen Xi the previous strategic plan of the Red Police Force, and gave her a copy of the specific development rules that had been drawn up before.After all, as the chief of staff of the Red Police Force and the current No. [-] commander of the entire force, Chen Xi must understand these plans sooner or later.

"Since we have made relevant strategic plans before, I agree with Comrade Zhang Ning's opinion." Chen Xi said to Zhang Shijie.

Zhang Shijie nodded and said: "Okay, Lao Zhang, order the troops! Stop the firepower attack on the Japanese engineers and arrange two 122mm artillery to shell the two trapped devils' regiments. They dare not step into the thunder. Let's force them! Let's block the logistics line, and there will be only one regiment left for the confrontation between the little devil and the Jinsui army, and we can only rely on the air force to drop supplies!"

"Yes! Chief!"

Hearing this, Zhang Shijie smiled helplessly, the title of chief cannot be changed!

But it doesn't matter, the company commander can also be called the chief in theory, so naturally he can be the head of the regiment, and he can confuse others in front of outsiders.

After Zhang Ning conveyed the order to the front line, the two 122 howitzer companies of the Red Police Artillery Battalion each used a cannon to launch artillery strikes on the two devils trapped in the minefield.

And it is a precision strike guided by infantry fire.

At this time, the little devil's artillery units outside the minefield also set up their artillery, and began to cover the surrounding minefields with artillery fire.

The entire western part of Shanxi was under continuous artillery fire.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the Corps of Engineers called just now. During the demining process, the Corps of Engineers was hit by heavy artillery from the Chinese army. Now the method has been changed, using the method of artillery fire coverage. It is estimated that the passage can be opened in about 20 minutes!"

As soon as the leader of the Guizi Alliance heard that the other side was going to use artillery to clear the mines, he jumped up and stood up.

"What?! Artillery demining?! The Chinese army's landmines can explode in a row! Isn't using artillery demining to put our locust soldiers in danger?!" The captain of the Guizi Alliance had a look of disbelief.

"Your Excellency, Captain, the engineering regiment said that they encountered various obstacles in the process of clearing the mines. If artillery fire is not used to clear the mines, the entire engineering regiment may be wiped out and they will not be able to clear the minefields."

Hearing this, just as the captain of the Devils Alliance was about to say something, the screaming sound of shells passing by instantly caught the attention of the devils. As the screaming sound ended, a 122mm high-explosive grenade landed at the front of the Devils convoy. On the tank responsible for opening the way.

"boom!"

The violent shelling not only shattered the tank, but the shock wave also overturned the devil's car behind. The little devils ran towards the rear of the convoy one after another, but the artillery of the red police did not intend to let them go. A shell exploded in the little devil's convoy.

Since the devil's convoy was marching on the road, although the convoy stretched for several kilometers, its horizontal depth was less than 20 meters, and the land on both sides was also filled with mines laid by the Red Police Force.

The captain of the Little Devils looked at the order of the firepower of the Red Police Force, and he also understood that the Chinese army wanted to blow up the entire convoy from the beginning to the end, forcing them into the minefield.

"Baga, Lu!" The little devils could only be helpless and furious in the face of this situation.

At this time, the devils in the convoy had only two choices, either to rush into the minefield in the direction of Taiyuan and wade out a bloody road for a chance of survival, or wait to be covered by artillery and die!

As for countermeasures?

The little devil can't even see people from the Red Police Force now, how can he counter it?

Now I can only choose one of the two, it's a good choice!
"Order the troops to break out of the siege in the direction of Taiyuan immediately with the squad as a unit! It counts as much as you can survive!"

"But your Excellency, Captain, there are still landmines behind!"

Hearing this, the captain of the Devils Alliance slapped the devil who spoke angrily, and said, "Don't you withdraw the artillery waiting for the Chinese?! Execute the order!"

"Hay!"

With the sound of artillery fire from the Red Police Force and the sound of landmine explosions from time to time, the little devils began to flee desperately.

In this case, the car must not be able to drive. Once the anti-tank mine is triggered, no one in the car will be able to escape.At the very least, fleeing on foot can firstly avoid triggering anti-tank mines, and secondly, it can disperse personnel and reduce casualties.

Of course, this reduction is only relative. According to the mine-laying method of the Red Police Force, it is basically impossible for the little devil to escape without killing more than half of the people.

The scene at this time can be described as quite spectacular, the little devil ran in front, triggering a few landmines from time to time, and the Xu Jin barrage launched by the red police force behind was bombarding wildly.

As the supreme commander, the captain of the Devils Alliance naturally waited at the end of the team for the little devils in front to use their flesh and blood to save him a way out, but unfortunately, the devils in front triggered a chain mine again, and a series of explosions sounded again Voice.

One of the IEDs, composed of 5 kilograms of C4 explosives, was detonated at the foot of the devil's wing headquarters.

Captain of the Devils Alliance: Pawn

"Run!"

"Hah Koh! Hah Koh! Hah Koh!"

Facing the terrifying serial thunder, the little devils ran like crazy again, and even a few devils who were almost exhausted ran fast again under the encouragement of the explosion!

This is the real life and death!
"Lanzhou, I'm Hengshui. The Japanese army has been driven to the minefield, and the barrage will continue!"

"Hengshui, I'm Lanzhou, the artillery will stop firing after 5 shots, please delay the artillery firing appropriately!"

"Hengshui understands!"

The barrels of ground artillery are cooled by air cooling, and the area covered by the artillery fire is often the largest at the beginning, which can reach more than a dozen rounds per minute.But after a long time of shooting, due to the overheating of the barrel, the shooting speed can only become slower and slower, and even only one round per minute.

This is why one naval gun can be worth a battalion of ground artillery. The naval gun has a water cooling device, so the firing frequency is naturally guaranteed.

With the driving of the two cannons, the two infantry regiments of the little devil finally ran out all the way, but the infantry regiments that were originally full of 3800 people only had about 1000 people left in each regiment at this time.

This is not only due to the artillery and landmines of the Red Police Force. Due to the poor communication, the devil artillery who was opening the way when the little devil broke out did not get the news in time.

So there are still some little devils who were reimbursed by their own artillery before they ran out of the minefield.

The devils of these two regiments lost all their heavy equipment, cars, tanks and artillery, and even the captain of the regiment died.

What a miserable word!
