People are shining their swords, secretly helping the Iron Triangle in Northwest Shanxi

Chapter 206

The Japanese North China Front Army Command has quickly made deployment arrangements based on the combat situation in Jin Province.

The reinforcement troops of the Mongolian Army advanced to Xin County, and contained the Jinsui Army Independent 48th Brigade and other troops in Xin County.

The 110th Division dispatched one to strengthen the tanks, artillery, cavalry and other troops, and directly advanced from Zhengding City along the Zhengtai Railway to Jin Province to fight.

Up to now, the reinforcements sent by the Mongolian Army have come to Xin County and directly fought against the Independent 48th Brigade.

Not to mention whether the Japanese and puppet troops have achieved results, but they have effectively contained the independent 48th Brigade in Xin County.

The reinforcements organized by the troops directly under the headquarters of the Front Army include tanks, armored vehicles and other troops.

This poses a greater threat to the troops fighting on the Zhengtai Railway in Hebei Province.

After all, let alone anti-tank artillery, these troops don't have many mortars.

In the face of tanks and armored vehicles, they have no way to deal with them.

So this army is advancing very fast, and they are about to enter Jin Province to fight.

And along the Zhengtai Railway in Jin Province, the independent and mixed Fourth Brigade began to rely on strongholds to hold on.

The Yamamoto Special Forces commanded by Yamamoto Kazuki repeatedly carried out mobile operations.

They launched a series of combat strikes, and they also gained a lot, weakening the combat effectiveness of the 129th Division.

Dozens of artillerymen and many cadres died in battle, which directly affected the troops' battles.

After all, the Eighth Route Army lacks artillery, and all the relevant artillery are treasures.

Because of Li Yunlong's assistance from Chen Ziyun several times, he seized a batch of artillery.

These artillery played a decisive role in the battle, but after the artillery was sacrificed, the artillery was not used by the corresponding artillery.

And many squad leaders, platoon leaders, company commanders and other cadres were killed by cold shots, which caused many troops to lose the command of grassroots cadres.

Brigadier Chen immediately sent a telegram to Li Yunlong's Xinyi regiment, explaining the situation in detail.

Li Yunlong was shrewd. After hearing Zhao Gang's report, he knew Brigadier Chen's thoughts.

"Old Zhao, we have to make a quick decision, and then quickly go to the Zhengtai Railway to join the battle."

"Otherwise the reinforcements dispatched from Hebei Province, not to mention our brigade, may suffer losses even from the main force of the division."

"It's not that Lao Li is bragging. The only one who can stop this reinforcement is our new regiment. Other troops can't do it at all."

"Of course, the battle here is also very important. No matter what, we have to make the little devils who are independent and mixed into the fourth brigade completely lose their combat effectiveness."

Li Yunlong looked at the map and said with a serious expression on his face.

Zhao Gang also possessed certain commanding skills. Hearing Li Yunlong's words, he knew Brigadier Chen's intentions.

Brigadier Chen obviously wanted the Xinyi Regiment to return quickly, but Brigadier Chen knew the importance of combat here.

So he didn't explain it directly, so as not to put too much pressure on Xinyituan.

After all, fighting here in Xin County is also very important. If the troops here cannot be effectively restrained, the consequences will be disastrous.

You must know that the independent and mixed fourth brigade stationed in Xin County before was a field force with more than 8000 people.

The Japanese and puppet troops supported by the Mongolian Army also had more than 8000 troops.

It is conceivable if these two forces had not received any diversionary blows.

They can easily advance to fight along the Tongpu Railway, and can also quickly transfer to Zhengtai Railway to fight.

As long as these two troops maneuver along the railway, it will have a huge impact on the entire Jin Province operation.

Not to mention ensuring that the railway is safe, the little devils can even capture the main force of the Eight Routes and carry out annihilation operations.

But now, it is precisely because there are troops such as the Independent 48th Brigade actively fighting in Xin County.

These more than 1 Japanese and puppet troops have been hit to varying degrees successively, which prevented them from going to fight in other areas.

Even the North China Front Army has no way to deal with it, and can only deploy troops from Hebei Province to assist Jin Province in fighting.

It can be said that the independent 48th Brigade fought in Xin County this time, but it played a decisive role.

Of course, whether it is Commander Liu or Brigadier Chen, they still fully agree with their operations.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang began to discuss, and they planned to continue to attack the hilly area.

But at around eight o'clock in the morning, the little devil's aviation unit came to Xinkou Town.

The six bombers began to lower their altitude, and they launched a precise bombing.

Aerial bombs fell directly on the ground. With the sound of explosions, Xinkou Town was instantly covered by gunpowder smoke.

Huge craters appeared on the ground, and the buildings in the town were impacted and collapsed one after another.

The scorching air waves made the air even hotter, and the sky was full of dust.

By 09:30, the Imp Air Force ended its bombing.

But they did not immediately evacuate from the battlefield, but continued to lower their heights and directly fired frantically at the ground.

A large number of bullets were fired directly from the aviation machine guns. Unfortunately, some soldiers were hit and their bodies were instantly torn apart.

The little devil's North China Front Army has a small number of aviation units. Up to now, they have only six aircraft at most that can be used to fight in Xin County.

Now all six bombers are dispatched, because they know that the target of the air strike is the Eighth Route Army, so they unscrupulously lowered their heights to launch strikes.

At ten o'clock, the little devil's plane left the battlefield.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were dug out from the collapsed house, and their bodies were covered in mud.

Fortunately, the house was only hit by the shock wave and collapsed. Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were buried with only skin trauma.

At this time, most of the small towns were built with earthen walls.

If it is in a big city, in some counties, there are brick, tile and concrete buildings, such a blow may lose their lives.

Li Yunlong's eyes were red, and he glanced viciously at the sky.

But before he scolded his mother, the cannons started to sound.

In the hilly area to the west of the Xinyi Regiment in Xinkou Town, the Artillery Team of the Independent and Mixed Fourth Brigade began shelling.

Four 77MM field guns, four 100MM howitzers, eight 75MM field guns, and three 75MM mountain guns fired first.

Nineteen artillery pieces fired grenades directly at the new formation.

A few minutes later, in the area north of Xinkou Town, the Cavalry Artillery Regiment under the Seventh Division of the Puppet Mongolian Army also launched shelling.

Eight Liao-made 75mm field guns also carried out coordinated bombardment.

For a time, 27 artillery pieces fired violently at the Xinyi Regiment, and countless shells covered them.

The deafening gunfire sounded, and the shrapnel quickly spread around.

At the same time, the Japanese and puppet troops also fired shrapnel, and a large number of steel balls and small steel arrows spread in midair.

The shelling lasted until [-]:[-].

After bombardment and shelling, the combat strength of the new regiment dropped sharply to about 900.

Even though the new regiment deployed defenses in a scattered manner, they still suffered casualties in the face of such a blow!
An infantry gun of the artillery company was hit by the shelling and destroyed on the spot.

Company commander Wang Chengzhu shed tears on the spot when he found out about this incident.

You must know that the Eighth Route Army's weapons and equipment are very poor. An infantry artillery, which can be transferred to any regiment, can directly reduce the regiment's combat losses.

After the little devil launched bombing and shelling one after another, the Japanese and puppet troops launched combat operations in a mighty manner.

The first to appear was the cavalry unit of the Pseudo-Mongolian Army, and more than 700 cavalry began to move towards the north and east sides.

They did not attack directly, but hovered 2000 meters away from the position.

The horses scattered one by one, and the cavalry carried Liao-made rifles and kept looking towards the position.

Here in the hilly area, more than 1000 infantrymen from the Fourth Brigade were independently mixed, and more than 1000 troops from the three garrison teams of the Puppet Mongolian Army began to launch wave-like tactical attacks.

The three guards, divided into three echelons, gradually approached the new regiment's position in Xinkou Town.

More than 1000 little devils were behind them, and the commander of the independent fourth brigade, Major General Tsuda Mitake, personally commanded them.

Here in Xinkou Town, Li Yunlong didn't need to report from various ministries, he could see the attacking troops of the Japanese puppet army through a telescope.

"Hehehe, the little devil really thinks highly of our old Li. He is bombing and shelling, and now he is throwing thousands of troops to attack in one go."

"Go and inquire, don't talk about our Eighth Route Army, it's the Central Army, which regiment can have such treatment."

"Well done, I was worried that there was no way to win the battle, but they came to my door."

"Soldier, tell the first battalion commander that the machine gun company of the regiment headquarters will be assigned to them to fight, and I will beat the Japanese and puppet infantry in the west hard."

"The second battalion defends the puppet cavalry units in the north and east. Tell the second battalion commander to beat people and not horses. I am planning to expand a cavalry battalion!"

"Zhuzi, what the hell are you doing crying and crying, like a bitch... What, an infantry gun was destroyed?"

"Wang Chengzhu, look at how promising you are, you cry when an infantry cannon is destroyed."

"Isn't it just an infantry cannon? Later, I will seize some mountain cannons and wild cannons for you!"

Li Yunlong opened his throat and directly issued a series of combat orders.

Of course knowing that an infantry artillery was destroyed, Li Yunlong felt as uncomfortable as someone was cutting his flesh.

But now he knows that he can't show it, otherwise it will affect the morale of the whole regiment.

For an army, every move of the supreme commander on the battlefield can directly affect the morale of the army.

Li Yunlong is very good at boosting the morale of the troops, which is one of the main reasons why his troops dare to fight tough battles and can fight tough battles.

Although the Xinyi Regiment was bombed and shelled, they heard Li Yunlong's familiar scolding, and the morale of all the cadres and soldiers was high.

They waited patiently for the approach of the Japanese and puppet troops and prepared to shoot.

Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, was carrying a bloodstained broadsword on his back, a pistol pinned to his waist, and a brand new [-]-type rifle in his hand.

He looked around and grinned.

After being strengthened by the machine gun company, the weapons and equipment of the first battalion are very sophisticated.

Ten 27-type heavy machine guns, 27 crooked light machine guns, and [-] grenades.

More than 300 60-type rifles, three 82MM mortars, and four [-]MM mortars.

Zhang Dabiao never dreamed that his first battalion would have such a large number of weapons.

Time was passing, and as the puppet Mongolian army entered the corresponding distance, the firepower of the first battalion began.

Light machine guns, grenades, and rifles fired one after another, and dense bullets and grenades hit the puppet Mongolian army.

The reason why the eight roads have the title of three guns and eight roads is that they lack ammunition, and after firing three bullets in combat, they directly start hand-to-hand combat.

The Xinyi Regiment currently has sufficient ammunition, but they still want to bring the Japanese and puppet troops closer and shoot.

But now they won't start hand-to-hand combat after firing three bullets, they can keep shooting.

The puppet Mongolian army suffered a head-on blow. They hurriedly organized firepower to counterattack, and the troops of both sides began to fall into fierce fighting.

For a while here in Xinkou Town, the sound of guns and guns kept coming, and the smoke gradually spread towards the surroundings.

The puppet Mongolian cavalry units are still on the move, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

They will attack quickly after the Japanese and puppet infantry completely contain the main force of the new regiment.

After all, yesterday's battle had taught them a lesson.

Lin Yunzhi also knew that if he led the cavalry to rush there recklessly, the 700 cavalry would probably be severely injured.

So up to now, the new regiment can mainly defend the Japanese and puppet infantry in the west, and their overall pressure is not very great.

Time passed by bit by bit. At one o'clock in the afternoon, here in Hesuo Town, Chen Ziyun slowly opened his eyes.

He was sent to Hesuo Town last night, and the best doctors and nurses from the Independent 48th Brigade came over immediately for treatment.

Of course, Chen Ziyun's blood all over his body looked scary, but in fact, most of his blood was scratches, completely skin trauma.

However, after commanding the troops to fight one after another, the whole person is in a state of high concentration, and Chen Ziyun is exhausted.

He fell asleep immediately after lying down. If it wasn't for the subconscious instinctive reaction, Chen Ziyun would have slept for a long time.

But he was worried about fighting, and woke up at one o'clock.

"Teacher Chen has woken up!" The nurse at the side saw Chen Ziyun wake up, and hurriedly shouted to the outside.

Chen Ziyun got up slowly, his whole body was still aching, but it was better than yesterday.

He looked around and was about to ask.

Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong walked in quickly from the outside. They finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Chen Ziyun.

"Captain Chen, you scared us to death."

"After knowing that you have fallen asleep, we are afraid that you will have any accident."

"The brigade came over from the front line in a hurry, and has been guarding outside."

Fang Ligong looked at Chen Ziyun and said nervously.

Chu Yunfei didn't say anything, but sat on a chair beside him.

Hearing these words, Chen Ziyun was a little moved.

"Traveler, Senator, I'm sorry to bother you, I'm fine, it's just a skin injury."

"By the way, what's the situation on the front line now, is the little devil starting to launch a fierce attack?"

Chen Ziyun looked at Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong in front of him, and hurriedly asked.

Fang Ligong wanted to speak just now, but Chu Yunfei waved his hand.

"Ziyun, come and analyze, how is the battle going?"

Chu Yunfei looked at Chen Ziyun with a smile, and said directly.

Obviously, Chu Yunfei wanted to test Chen Ziyun!

But at this point, Chen Ziyun couldn't help it.

He glanced around and could tell that he was in Hesuo Town.
