Chapter 110 Injury to the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade (for subscription)

Katayama Shotaro was extremely angry, and the troops escorting the seriously wounded were ambushed and might suffer a devastating blow.

My attention was completely drawn to the back, and a large number of troops also began to guard behind, for fear that the Eighth Route Army would take the opportunity to sneak attack.

As a result, the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army directly launched a counterattack, which not only easily seized the forward starting position, but also caused heavy casualties to the troops.

The small number of troops of the 11th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army was completely defeated, and the [-]th Brigade of the Independent Infantry suffered a devastating blow.

The artillery team suffered close to 100 casualties, and two mountain cannons and two field cannons were completely destroyed.

Such a heavy loss made him angry from embarrassment, his face was livid with anger now, and he wished to smash everyone in the 358th regiment to pieces.

"Order, the 14th Independent Infantry Battalion, the 15th Independent Infantry Battalion, the main force of the attached machine gun brigade, and the main force of the mortar brigade to attack with all their strength."

"The forward starting position cannot be lost. It must be regained. At the same time, the attacking Jinsui Army troops must be completely wiped out."

"Mobilize some heavy machine guns and mortars to build positions, and respond to the retreat of the Fujita brigade!"

"Order the Fujita brigade to penetrate quickly from the flanks and cut off the Jinsui army's retreat to the high ground!"

"The 12th and 13th Brigades of the Independent Infantry fully protect the artillery, and the brigade and regiment are safe."

"In addition, contact the idiot Mori Muhengyi and ask their artillery unit to suppress the artillery unit of the Jinsui Army!"

Katayama Shengtaro issued a combat order to completely annihilate the counterattack force commanded by Chen Ziyun.

For this reason, he even gave up the combat strike on the Eight Routes, so as to gather all the troops to fight.

The Fujita brigade got the news very quickly, and Major Fujita did not delay, and immediately ordered the various ministries to cover and evacuate alternately.

Infantry guns and grenades fired continuously, and a large number of grenades and smoke bombs were shot out.

The little devils covered alternately and directly evacuated from the battlefield, but at this time their team of 800 people had dropped sharply to more than 600 people.

After Li Yunlong's new regiment attacked, they paid more than 100 casualties.

After Li Yunlong watched the Japanese troops withdraw, he pondered for a moment and did not order the troops to pursue.

He arranged for troops to quickly clean up the battlefield, and at the same time dispatched scouts to closely monitor the movement of the little devil's troops.

"Head, this harvest is not small. More than 300 rifles, as well as light and heavy machine guns, and a lot of ammunition were seized."

"Should we accept it as soon as it is good, and withdraw the troops immediately, otherwise the brigade headquarters will definitely hold us accountable when they get the news."

"And judging by the attitude of the little devil, he must be fighting with the 358 regiment again. There is no need for us to join in the fun, right?"

The first battalion commander Zhang Dabiao immediately proposed to Li Yunlong while directing the troops to clean up the battlefield.

After all, the brigade headquarters asked the new regiment to stick to Yangcun with all its strength to ensure the absolute safety of the outer positions.

They are now the guards of the general headquarters. Li Yunlong violated the order so much that Zhang Dabiao was in a state of fear.

"Da Biao, did you hear that? With such a dense sound of cannons, it must be that the Cannon God's troops have launched an operation."

"The little devil is in such a hurry to go back, it means that something big must have happened at the Japanese puppet army's position."

"Why don't you say that you are an honest person, and if we go back now, it will not be considered a violation of the brigade headquarters' order?"

"The order is violated, and it will be a result to go back sooner or later."

"The battle between the Japanese and puppet troops is so lively, we have to go and join in the fun!"

"I heard no, Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment almost has the strength of a damn division."

"Our new regiment is a basic regiment. Old Li dare not think of five or six thousand troops, but it's okay to make him three or four thousand troops."

"Without weapons and equipment, it's useless to give you soldiers. Da Biao, we have to continue to accumulate our wealth!"

Li Yunlong looked at the weapons and equipment seized by the soldiers with a smile on his face.

Hearing Zhang Dabiao's proposal to take the troops back, he squinted his eyes and began to preach directly.

He, Li Yunlong, loves weapons and ammunition more than anything else.

He just came out and fought two small victories, and he hasn't enjoyed it yet, so he definitely doesn't want to go back now.

What's more, in his old Li's view, a mistake has already been made, and going back early or late is the result.

Since the result is the same, why not fight a few more times to enjoy the fun and capture weapons and equipment by the way.

Zhang Dabiao was speechless when he heard Li Yunlong's words.

As the first battalion commander of the new regiment, he could only carry out the orders of regiment leader Li Yunlong.

The Xinyi regiment quickly swept the battlefield, and then the troops gradually advanced towards the positions of the Japanese and puppet troops. Li Yunlong was looking for an opportunity to fight again!
At this time, in the position of the Japanese and puppet troops, the Japanese artillery team carried out a combat transfer.

Six mountain cannons and six field cannons fiercely shelled the forward starting position.

At the same time, more than 20 90mm mortars from the mortar brigade also began to bombard here.

Immediately afterwards, more than 1000 little devils were assigned to the machine gun brigade, and they advanced along the middle road towards the forward position.

It's just that the Japanese army didn't expect at all that at this time, Chen Ziyun's command troops had already left the forward starting position and directly transferred to the two sides to advance.

At about one o'clock, Chen Ziyun began to receive reports.

The guard company on the left and the cavalry company on the right stopped advancing immediately, and they began to build positions.

A few minutes later, a large number of little devils appeared quickly, and Chen Ziyun did not hesitate at all.

One after another, the signal flares shot directly at the little devils' troops.

The dazzling light of the red signal flare appeared in the Japanese army, and Zhou Wenbo's observation team immediately locked its position and quickly carried out the work on the map.

A group of shooting Zhu Yuan, began to pass through the phone.

The first artillery company and the second artillery company began to get busy.

Soon, the six Jin orogenic cannons took the lead in shelling, and not long after, the six Bofors mountain cannons also launched shelling.

Twelve mountain cannons launched an annihilation bombardment, and a large number of grenades directly hit the Japanese troops.

The sound of shell explosions continued to sound, and at the same time, the troops on both sides fired directly.

Especially here on the left guard company, they assembled 28 light and heavy machine guns, and six grenadiers focused fire.

As for the two Japanese mortars, the few shells have already been used up.

The mainstream mortar caliber of the Jinsui Army and other troops is 82MM, and the Japanese 81MM mortar cannot be used, so it cannot be supplemented.

However, without the support of two mortars, the impact on combat is not very great.

More than 100 soldiers have advanced rapidly under the command of Chu Yu. They use submachine guns and shell guns to start shooting at close range.

The soldiers of the two rifle platoons took aim with the captured [-]-type rifles, and also launched precise shooting.

A large number of bullets hit the little devil, and the little devil who was shelled was completely caught off guard.

The cavalry company here on the right is also shooting, they mainly use the Czech rifles captured from the cavalry battalion of the puppet army!

Czech rifles were once equipped in large quantities to the Northeast Army and the 29th Army in the North China region.

The Japanese army captured a lot, because the caliber was different from their rifles, so they armed these Czech rifles to the puppet troops.

Because the Czech rifle is an infantry rifle, it is also suitable for cavalry use, so the puppet army cavalry battalions are all equipped with Czech rifles.

After these rifles became Chen Ziyun's spoils of war, they were directly handed over to the cavalry company for use.

Although the cavalry company is a newly formed unit, most of them are also veterans.

To say that as a cavalry unit, they must have no combat effectiveness at all.

However, after dismounting to fight, they turned into infantry, and these fighters still have not weak combat capabilities.

Three points and one line, aim and pull the trigger, and the bullet quickly escapes from the barrel.

Pull the bolt, withdraw the cartridge case, reset the bolt, and continue aiming and shooting.

The troops on the left and right were fully fired, and cooperated with the artillery to launch combat strikes.

The little devils fell into a pool of blood one after another, and they didn't have the slightest reaction time.

The two infantry major captains who commanded the battle immediately hid themselves. They looked at the passively beaten troops with expressions of astonishment on their faces.

Because not only them, but even the head of the brigade, Katayama Shotaro, speculated that the Jinsui army must still be here at the forward starting position.

However, how could they have imagined that Chen Ziyun commanded the troops to advance directly from both sides.

The Japanese troops advancing along the middle road were flanked in an instant.

"Baga, Lu, who is commanding them to fight?"

"The man's ability to effectively direct artillery for long-range bombardment and master infantry command is truly frightening."

"Chu Yunfei, the commander of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, may not have such abilities."

"Those idiots from the intelligence agencies, such powerful opponents, don't even have any information!"

The captain of the Shaozuo brigade said solemnly, and they showed fearful eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the two captains hurriedly commanded the troops to disperse.

And the machine gun brigade following the battle quickly set up a heavy machine gun and directly launched suppressive shooting.

The mortar brigade in the distance launched a covering bombardment of the exposed firepower on the left and right sides.

After Koichi Mori got the news through artillery observation, he didn't care whether he could hit the target accurately.

Under his command, twelve artillery pieces began to bombard the positions of the 358th regiment of the Jinsui Army.

The little devil launched a counterattack with all his strength, which suppressed the fire from both sides.

There are currently more than 30 heavy machine guns in the Japanese machine gun brigade. Counting the two brigade machine gun squadrons, they have about forty heavy machine guns.

The mortar brigade has more than 20 90MM mortars. When these firepower is deployed, the troops on the left and right sides will naturally suffer casualties.

Chen Ziyun raised his binoculars to observe for a while, and he began to direct the guard companies to alternately cover and retreat to the forward starting position.

The cavalry company on the right is scattered and concealed, covering the transfer of the guard company.

The Japanese troops were effectively covered by firepower, and they immediately launched an attack.

However, the guard company on the left has already begun to withdraw from the battlefield.

When the little devil wanted to pursue the cavalry company with all his strength, the cavalry troops retreated and evacuated directly on horseback.

At two o'clock in the morning, the guard company withdrew to the starting position.

At this time, the 14th and 15th Brigades of the Independent Infantry, after successive battles, the two brigades were able to fight, and there were only more than 100 people.

This means that at least more than 400 of them were either killed or severely injured and lost their combat effectiveness.

So far, the five independent infantry brigades under the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade have suffered different casualties, and none of them are fully staffed.
