Chapter 114 The Japanese and Puppet Army Fight a New Regiment (Subscribe)
Instead of making a breakthrough in the attack on the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, the Japanese and puppet troops suffered heavy casualties.

Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the First Army, personally drew up a new combat plan, and he asked the Japanese and puppet troops to attack the new regiment of the Eighth Route of Yangcun.

Shinozuka Yoshio felt that the Yangcun Xinyi Regiment had not many troops and poor weapons and equipment. If the Japanese and puppet troops launched an attack, they would surely be able to quickly obtain results.

After solving Li Yunlong's new regiment, the Japanese and puppet troops can launch a wide range of detours and interspersed, thus bringing a devastating blow to the 358th regiment of the Jinsui Army.

After receiving the telegram, Major General Shotaro Katayama, who commanded the operations on the front line, immediately discussed with his officers without delay.

At 09:30 in the morning, a large number of Japanese and puppet troops began to mobilize, and they moved towards the Yangcun area one after another.

At the same time, the airports in the southern Shanxi area began to dispatch aviation troops.

The Japanese army dispatched four reconnaissance planes and directly came to the sky above the 358 regiment's position for low-altitude reconnaissance.

The little devil intends to use a reconnaissance plane to lock the artillery position of the 358 regiment, thereby guiding the artillery unit to bomb.

Of course, when necessary, the small aerial bombs carried by their reconnaissance planes can also be directly bombed to completely destroy the artillery units of the Jinsui Army.

Four reconnaissance planes repeatedly reconnaissance over the position of the 358 regiment, but the two artillery battalions under the artillery battalion set up sheltered positions.

The twelve mountain cannons were all camouflaged when they were not fighting. It was difficult for the little devil's reconnaissance plane to quickly find their location.

After some low-altitude reconnaissance and nothing was found, the little devil's air force came to the front line.

They started bombing, and small aerial bombs fell on the positions of the fifth and sixth battalions.

Accompanied by the explosion that resounded through the sky, the ground seemed to be shaking.

The scorching air wave quickly spread around with the shock wave, and countless dusts flew up.

Huge bomb craters appeared on the ground, and even though the frontline positions were reinforced, they were still destroyed.

After all, even a small aerial bomb weighs tens of kilograms, and its explosive power can be imagined.

After the bombing by the four reconnaissance planes ended, they did not leave the battlefield immediately, but hovered at low altitude flaunting their might.

At ten o'clock, the four reconnaissance planes left the battlefield.

The frontline positions of the 358th regiment were destroyed, and the fifth and sixth battalions that had not yet fought the Japanese army suffered dozens of casualties.

Because these were two infantry battalions that had just been expanded, they were bombed, and their morale was inevitably affected.

Chen Ziyun gritted his teeth and glanced at the reconnaissance plane that was gradually disappearing in the distance. He clenched his hands into fists and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.

But he didn't have any anti-aircraft weapons in his hands, and he couldn't do anything about the Japanese aviation.

Even if there were a few anti-aircraft machine guns, the little devil's aviation soldiers would not be so arrogant!
But what Chen Ziyun can do now is to immediately rescue the wounded and boost the morale of the troops.

Fortunately, the Japanese and puppet troops changed their attack targets, and now they have not launched any attack operations.

Otherwise, with the status of the fifth battalion and the sixth battalion, there will definitely be problems.

"Chen Tuanfu, the main force of the Japanese puppet army has already advanced towards Yangcun. It seems that they are going to attack the Eight Routes."

"The one who cooperated with us in the battle before seems to be the new regiment of Yangcun Eighth Route, and this Eighth Route is also not easy to mess with."

"Back then in Cangyun Ridge, they were the ones who blocked the attack of Bantian Alliance!"

The company commander of the guard company, Chu Yu, walked quickly to Chen Ziyun, and he reported directly.

As for the new regiment, Chu Yu had personally seen their combat capabilities.

It was also with the cooperation of the Shinichi regiment that the Fujita brigade was completely wiped out by the guard company.

That's why Chu Yu felt that it might not be possible to obtain results if the fourth brigade formed independently to attack Yang Village.

"We fought here, and they came to support us. Now that the Japanese and puppet troops are attacking them, we can't stand by and watch."

"Chu Yu, dispatch a reconnaissance unit from the guard company to investigate in detail the deployment of the Japanese and puppet troops in front of us."

"Communication Corps, contact the observation team and ask them to reset the artillery observation post!"

"In addition, Sun Xiong's artillery company moved forward to build a sheltered position and prepare for shelling."

Chen Ziyun raised his binoculars to check, and he decisively issued a combat order.

The overall strength of Li Yunlong's new regiment is not weak, but Chen Ziyun still intends to support them in combat.

After all, if the 358 regiment and the new regiment can effectively cooperate in combat, it is possible to eat up this Japanese and puppet army.

Moreover, Chen Ziyun also needs to complete the system task of killing Katayama Shotaro, and it is easier to complete this task in joint operations with the Shinichi regiment.

"Yes, Chen Tuanfu!" Chu Yu and the others immediately agreed after receiving the order without any hesitation.

The guard company quickly mobilized more than a dozen soldiers to attack and investigate, and Zhou Wenbo's observation team and Sun Xiong's artillery company also started operations.

Chen Ziyun came to a high ground and carefully checked the battle situation of Yang Village through a telescope.

Currently here in Yangcun, after the Xinyi Regiment discovered that the Japanese and puppet troops were advancing, they immediately entered a fighting state.

Li Yunlong rubbed his hands excitedly, and he came to the front line immediately.

Seeing a large number of Japanese and puppet troops preparing to attack, Li Yunlong grinned.

"Hey hey hey, I said earlier that this person is going to be unlucky, he can get stuffed between his teeth when he drinks saliva!"

"But let me tell you, if you are lucky, you will encounter such a good thing as meatloaf falling from the sky!"

"I was thinking about getting rid of the Japanese puppet army, but they came to my door."

"I didn't say anything, give me a hard hit. After this battle, whether our new regiment can expand or not depends on your performance."

"Zhuzi, the little devil has a lot of artillery, you artillerymen fight at your leisure, you can't cause any casualties."

Li Yunlong put down the binoculars and shouted at the top of his voice. He is happier than anyone else now.

After the joint 358 regiment guard company wiped out the Fujita brigade, the new regiment seized most of the Fujita brigade's weapons and equipment.

In the past, the new regiment had more people and fewer guns, and ammunition was even more scarce.

But now they have many guns and few ammunition.

In Zhang Dabiao's [-]st Battalion, light machine guns have been distributed to all squads, and grenadiers have been distributed to all platoons.

The battalion headquarters is also directly under a heavy machine gun company, and the battalion has a total of 31 light and heavy machine guns!
A battalion has such a large number of light and heavy machine guns, let alone Zhang Dabiao, even Li Yunlong could not have imagined it in his dreams before!

And after several captures and accumulations, the whole regiment randomly pulled out a rifleman, and they all had at least a hundred rounds of bullets.

Their bullet bags are all bulging, filled with yellow bullets.

"Regimental Commander, just look at it, the Japanese puppet army is the transport team of our new regiment."

"Why are they here this time? They are here to transport weapons and ammunition for us."

"In this battle, we will definitely let them have as many weapons and ammunition as they have."

"Regimental Commander, you can't scold your mother just because the machine guns are firing repeatedly in this battle."

"Don't worry, our machine gun shooters can seize as many bullets as they shoot, and we will never trade at a loss!"

The cadres and soldiers looked at Li Yunlong one after another, and they said with a smile.

Even though they currently only have more than 1000 troops, and the Japanese and puppet troops have an absolute advantage, they have no fear at all.

"Let go of your hands and feet and fire with all your strength, I will never scold your mother, so many bullets, as long as you don't waste them, you can fight hard!"

Li Yunlong said very boldly that there is no shortage of new rounds of ammunition at all.

The morale of the Xinyi Regiment was high, and they waited quietly for the Japanese and puppet troops to attack.

At around [-]:[-], Shotaro Katayama issued a combat order.

The artillery team took the lead in shelling, with six mountain artillery and six field artillery covering the Yangcun area.

A grenade was fired, and the shrapnel shot towards the new formation one after another.

With the deafening explosion, more than [-] Japanese troops rushed towards the new group of positions like locusts.

And behind these infantry, followed by the machine gun brigade and the mortar brigade.

It didn't take long for the mortar brigade to stop advancing. They entered a certain range and began to build mortar positions.

"Everything!" After the mortars were set up, they began to fire smoke bombs towards the new group of positions.

Puffs of white smoke appeared, completely obscuring the sight of the new group of soldiers.

Under the cover of smoke, the little devil infantry in front accelerated and moved forward.

More than [-] Japanese soldiers opened up the skirmish line, and they used the unit as a unit to cover each other and leap forward.

At ten twenty, a heavy machine gun began to be erected.

The little devils in the front were less than 500 meters away from the new group of positions, and they continued to accelerate.

At this time, Katayama Shotaro adopted a multi-point attack tactic, and the little devils' troops were completely spread out, and they attacked all positions of the new regiment at the same time.

During the attack, they will look for a new weak point, and then they will gather all the heavy weapons for concentrated fire.

They want to break through quickly, so as to completely eliminate the new group of troops.

"Everything!"

At 10:30, the grenades belonging to the Japanese army began to fire grenades towards the position.

A large number of grenades hit the position, and deafening explosions continued to sound.

At this time, the white smoke gradually dissipated, and a large number of little devils were already about 200 meters away from the position.

Immediately afterwards, the Japanese troops stopped.

A light machine gun with a crooked handle fired bursts, and dense bullets shot towards the position.

The Japanese army, organized in squadrons, began to focus their fire on the site for trial shooting.

At the same time, a large number of riflemen, in groups of four, quickly leaped forward.

It's just that the new group faced such a firepower attack, they were still silent and did not respond at all.

Of course, if some defensive troops with weak willpower faced such a level of attack, they would definitely open fire to intercept them immediately, for fear that the Japanese army would break through their positions.

However, as long as the defensive troops opened fire, their firepower would be fully exposed, and the light and heavy weapons deployed by the Japanese army at different positions would immediately fire and destroy the firepower points.

But now they are facing a new regiment of troops, but the elite troops led by Lao Li!
Not to mention these independent mixed brigade troops, even in the face of the elite Sakata United, they can defend calmly.

"Send down the order, after the light and heavy machine guns are fired, transfer immediately."

"Especially heavy machine guns, the transfer speed must be fast, and you cannot shoot fixedly."

"The grenadiers fired grenades, suppressing their machine gun fire."

"Pillar, infantry guns look for a chance to hit the heavy machine guns behind them, mortars!"

Here in the position, Li Yunlong opened the safety of the shell gun and directly issued a combat order.

All weapons were already loaded, and the soldiers quietly waited for the Japanese and puppet troops to approach.

150 meters, 100 meters, 50 meters...

A large number of little devil riflemen rushed to a position less than 50 meters away from the position, and some soldiers with good eyesight could clearly see the little devil's facial features.

At this moment, Li Yunlong tilted the shell gun and directly pulled the trigger.

The gunshot rang out, the bullets shot out, and the little devil in the front was instantly knocked down.

And the sound of Li Yunlong's shelling gun was the order to shoot.

For a while, a new regiment of troops deployed in various defensive positions immediately launched firepower.

Rifles, light and heavy machine guns and other weapons opened fire one after another.

A string of tongues of fire shot out one after another, and the dense bullets hit the little devil without the slightest conscript.

In the blink of an eye, all the little devils fell directly into a pool of blood.

In terms of weapons and equipment, the new regiment is far inferior to the 358 regiment.

But in terms of individual combat capabilities, the 358 regiment is far inferior to the new regiment!
If the new regiment has 358 regiment weapons configuration, Li Yunlong can easily eat up the independent mixed fourth brigade in front of him!
As the firepower of the Xinyi Regiment unfolded, a large number of little devils were shot and killed on the spot.

At a distance of less than 50 meters, almost all the weapons of the soldiers were able to bite the flesh with guns and guns!

The new regiment is an Eighth Route Army, they are good at guerrilla warfare.

Even though the soldiers were in the defensive position, they moved after finishing the fight.

The firepower on the position continued to fire, and the firepower points were changed one after another.

The Japanese army's light and heavy machine guns, grenade mortars, and even mountain artillery field artillery could not completely suppress the new group of firepower.

"Baga Road, push forward quickly and rush into the trench!"

"Throw grenades, suppress their firepower, and charge quickly!"

"They don't have many troops. If we press them all over, we will definitely be able to completely eliminate them!"

A little devil officer shouted loudly, and they urged the little devil to speed up.

The four little devils took out grenades and threw them directly in front of them.

With the help of the dust and smoke from the grenades, they quickly moved forward with their rifles in hand.

However, after the four little devil riflemen were exposed, they fired bullets one after another.

The four little devils were shot to the point and fell directly into a pool of blood, dying on the spot.

The two sides fired fiercely, and both sides suffered casualties, but the little devil's losses were obviously more serious.

Katayama Shotaro, who was commanding the battle behind, raised his binoculars to observe. Seeing a large number of little devils lying in a pool of blood, he held the binoculars tightly with both hands.

"Baga!!" Katayama Shotaro couldn't help cursing angrily.

He could clearly feel that the Yangcun Xinyi Regiment fought completely differently from the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army.

The 358th regiment was able to give full play to its weapon advantages, attack the Japanese troops with intensive firepower, and curb the advance of the Japanese troops.

And the Eighth Route New First Regiment launched precise strikes, biting meat with guns and guns, causing the little devil to pay heavy casualties!

"All concentrated fire suppression, light and heavy machine guns, grenade mortars, mountain artillery field artillery to start covering fire."

"All the riflemen on the front line threw grenades, suppressed the firepower of the Eight Route Army, and then advanced quickly!"

"Contact the Eighth Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army and let them attack from the flank!"

Katayama Shotaro made some observations, he put down the binoculars, and re-issued the combat order.

He is preparing to disperse the new group of defensive firepower, and at the same time use the advantage of weapons to completely suppress the new group of troops, so as to quickly break through.
