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

Chapter 267 Strike the Battlefield Observation Group (for Subscription)
The third independent mixed brigade deployed heavy troops to the northwest of the Huting stronghold, where there are about [-] Japanese and puppet troops.

The Sixth Battalion of the Independent Infantry, the Seventh Battalion of the Independent Infantry, and the attached Royal Association Army troops.

When the Huting stronghold fell, they moved to the northeast direction and paid close attention to the situation here.

It's just that they didn't expect that the Yamamoto Special Forces would suddenly attack here, and they would be able to regain the Huting stronghold soon.

After the two major captains got the secret service team's telegram, they inevitably had some thoughts in their hearts.

They were very reluctant about Kazuki Yamamoto's arrangement.

Especially the Major Commander of the Sixth Brigade of the Independent Infantry, the Huting stronghold was lost in his hands, of course he wanted to regain it himself.

Kazuki Yamamoto arranged for them to stay in place, and quickly searched around to prevent Li Yunlong and other troops from penetrating into Yuanping City.

After careful consideration by the two major brigade captains, they did not execute it immediately, but quickly sent a report to the brigade department.

They explained the current situation in detail and directly requested the brigade headquarters to approve their combat operations.

After all, with the participation of the Yamamoto Special Forces, the entire battlefield situation has undergone major changes.

If these Japanese and puppet troops attack the past, they will not only be able to recapture the Huting stronghold, but they will even be able to attack the independent detachment.

In their view, Kazuki Yamamoto didn't let them go to the war because he wanted to take all the military exploits by himself.

After Major General Liuxia Shigeharu received the report, he took his staff to check carefully in front of the map.

After thinking for a long time, Shigeharu Liuxia immediately issued a combat order.

He asked these troops to quickly advance towards the Huting stronghold in order to quickly capture the Huting stronghold.

Shigeharu Liuxia hopes that this battle will be valued by the observation group, so as to improve his military rank.

However, the Huting stronghold fell, and the third independent mixed brigade lost the opportunity to perform.

However, now they can fight a beautiful battle, and Shigeharu Liuxia will naturally not stand still.

He arranged for the Japanese and puppet troops to attack the Huting stronghold with all their strength. After taking the Huting stronghold, he reported according to the situation.

As long as conditions permit, Shigeharu Liuxia will definitely arrange for these troops to continue to attack and fight, so as to obtain more results.

At 01:30 in the afternoon, the operation was originally launched to the Japanese and puppet troops in the northwest of the Huting stronghold.

About [-] Japanese and puppet troops quickly advanced towards the Huting stronghold, and they directly joined the attack on the second battalion of the Xinyi Regiment.

Kazuki Yamamoto saw these troops advancing to the Huting stronghold to join the battle, with an angry expression on his face.

He quickly sent messengers over to inquire, asking them to return to the defense quickly to prevent Li Yunlong and other troops from advancing deeply into Yuanping City.

But when the messenger of the secret service team came to the Japanese puppet army, no one paid any attention to him at all.

The two major captains quickly deployed, and the Japanese and puppet troops began to attack.

At the same time, the four mountain cannons and four field cannons attached to them also launched shelling immediately to cover the infantry attack.

The Second Battalion of the New First Regiment was under greater pressure, and their casualties were gradually increasing.

Kazuki Yamamoto watched the Japanese and puppet troops attack, and frowned tightly.

He quickly withdrew the special agent team and quickly assembled to stand by, while he himself quickly came to the Japanese and puppet troops.

After all, he speculated that Li Yunlong's troops and Chen Ziyun's troops might attack Yuanpingcheng, thereby attracting and mobilizing the Japanese and puppet troops in the Huting stronghold area.

The independent mixed third brigade troops should hold their positions with all their strength to prevent their troops from attacking.

However, the 3000 troops came to the Huting stronghold to fight, but it brought a big loophole to the original Pingcheng defense.

"Your Excellency, you are the captain of the Yamamoto Special Forces, and I am a unit of the Third Independent Mixed Brigade."

"According to the order of our brigade and regiment headquarters, we need to launch a combat strike on the Huting stronghold."

"As for your order, there is no way for us to carry it out, and your worries are completely groundless."

"Now the Eighth Route Independent Detachment is about to suffer a devastating blow here. How could they leave here and go to Yuanping City to fight in depth."

Faced with Kazuki Yamamoto's inquiry, the two major captains who commanded the battle did not show any face.

They were confident and confident, and refused Kazuki Yamamoto's order to let them return to the defense, but continued to command the troops to storm the second battalion of the new regiment of Huting stronghold.

Kazuki Yamamoto glanced at them coldly, with a solemn expression on his face, and quickly began to generate electricity for the First Army Headquarters.

It's just that at this time, the battles in Baijia Village and Xiying Village have ushered in a major change.

Kojima Shinxing originally commanded the first and second regiments of the puppet army, the artillery battalion, the first special operations brigade of the Japanese army, and the third artillery squadron.

In addition, there is also the First Squadron of Independent Tanks fighting. They continue to attack the positions of the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment.

The two regiments launched a defensive deployment, and were attached to the Jinsui Army Artillery Battalion and other units to resist.

At the same time, the third battalion of the new regiment also began to detour to the side to start guerrilla operations.

The Japanese and puppet troops had an advantage, and the Eighth Route Independent Detachment fought very hard.

However, as Lin Zhiqiang, Chief of Staff of the Independent 48th Brigade commanded the Seventh Battalion, the Eighth Battalion, and the Machine Gun Battalion rushed to help, the combat situation here has changed.

They came to the battlefield and directly contacted the third battalion of the Xinyi Regiment.

Immediately afterwards, three infantry battalions and a machine gun battalion began to attack. They attacked the Japanese and puppet troops from the rear.

For a while, the Japanese and puppet troops commanded by Kojima Shin-hing were raided, caught off guard, and suffered some losses.

After Kojima Xinxing received the report, he knew that there were a large number of Jinsui Army troops behind him, and he showed a serious expression on his face.

He quickly mobilized the First Squadron of Independent Tanks, the First Squadron of Special Operations, and the Third Squadron of Artillery to launch a counterattack.

At about two o'clock in the afternoon, this Japanese army directly fought with the troops commanded by Lin Zhiqiang.

The puppet army continued to attack the independent detachment.

However, in the face of the attacks of these puppet troops, the pressure on the independent detachment was reduced, and they were able to deal with it calmly.

Lin Zhiqiang commanded the seventh battalion, the eighth battalion, and the machine gun battalion to defend on the spot, while the third battalion of the new regiment continued to fight guerrillas.

Relying on their powerful firepower, they blocked the Japanese troops from counterattacking again and again.

The 13MM heavy machine guns of the Machine Gun Battalion continued to pose a threat to Japanese tanks.

Kojima Xinxing found that this Jinsui army was not simple, and his expression became more and more serious.

He temporarily stopped the attack of the Japanese and puppet troops, and began to discuss with the officers in detail.

After all, after continuous fighting, all of their ministries suffered casualties.

Even the First Squadron of Independent Tanks had six tanks destroyed!
With such a loss, Kojima began to worry about the situation of his troops.

As Lin Zhiqiang commanded the troops to arrive, they were in danger of being attacked from both sides.

The Japanese and puppet troops stopped fighting, and the independent detachment was finally able to take a breather.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie met, and after some discussion, they decided to abandon the Huting stronghold and go all out to support the Second Battalion troops to break out of the encirclement.

Taking advantage of Xiaodao Xinxing's troops to stop attacking, they began to organize troops and fully respond to the Second Battalion's breakout.

The fierce battle at Huting stronghold is still going on.

In Yuanping City, after two o'clock, the convoy of the battlefield observation team stopped.

A major who was an independent third brigade hurriedly came to Naotomi Hattori, the leader of the field observation group.

At present, the Huting stronghold is fighting fiercely, and the independent mixed third brigade has also received news.

Although Liuxia Shigeharu could not confirm whether Li Yunlong and Chen Ziyun commanded the troops to Yuanping City to fight in depth.

However, in order to ensure the absolute safety of the field observation group, he temporarily stopped the field observation group and continued to move forward.

After all, if any accident happened to the battlefield observation team, the consequences would be unimaginable.

At this time, Shigeharu Liuxia was also commanding the battle at a huge risk.

After Kazuki Yamamoto reported, the First Army Command immediately made arrangements.

Shinozuka Yoshio asked Liu Shigeharu to command the independent and mixed third brigade unit, and make every effort to ensure the original Pingcheng to ensure the safety of the field observation group.

The battle at Huting stronghold was carried out by the Yamamoto special team.

But Shigeharu Liuxia received a report from the front that the Huting stronghold was about to be recaptured, so he was unwilling to give up all his previous efforts.

So he directly sent power to the two major captains commanding the front line, asking them to withdraw the troops after taking down the Huting stronghold.

Now the [-] Japanese and puppet troops are still fighting at the Huting stronghold.

The battlefield observation group can't move on anymore. They have to wait for the Huting stronghold to be recovered and these troops return to defense before they can move on.

There is still no big problem with Shigeharu Liuxia's arrangement on the whole.

It's just not only him, Kazuki Yamamoto also ignored an important detail.

That is, Li Yunlong's troops and Chen Ziyun's troops did not want to attack Yuan Pingcheng's independent and mixed third brigade, so as to attract and mobilize the Japanese and puppet troops to come back.

Their goal is the battlefield observation group!

Chen Ziyun, knows the existence of the battlefield observation group!

"Baga Road, what exactly does Liu Xiajun want to do, is it to let us come and watch their traffic control?"

"Now we are being asked to stay where we are. Could it be that even in Yuanping City, our occupied area, this place is dangerous?"

"How did the First Army control the occupied area of ​​Jin Province? Commander Shinozuka Yoshio's new tactics don't seem to have the slightest effect."

"You contact Liu Xiajun right away, we need to observe the operations of the First Army, not the traffic command around."

Hattori Naotomi showed a dissatisfied expression on his face, and at this moment he yelled at the Major officer.

It's the end of December now, the ground is freezing and the weather is cold, Yanagi Shigeharu asked Hattori Naotomi to wait on the spot.

Naotomi Hattori couldn't accept this cold weather.

The major officer of the independent and mixed third brigade showed a panic expression, saluted hurriedly, and quickly arranged for the communication soldiers to generate electricity.

Naotomi Hattori's face was gloomy, and he looked around carefully with a telescope.

But he didn't know that Naotomi Hattori had already appeared in Chen Ziyun's telescope!

Chen Ziyun commanded the cavalry battalion, the guard company, and the reconnaissance platoon appeared here.

However, there is still a distance between them and the field observation group convoy.

Although the cavalry battalion has artillery, they are mainly 81MM mortars and 37MM flat-fire guns.

It would be nice to bring the artillery battalion this time, they can launch shelling from a long distance.

With the corresponding equipment and artillery, the troops can directly destroy the field observation group without going to attack.

But not now, they need to fight over to deal with the battlefield observation group.

"Monk, take the reconnaissance platoon and quickly deal with the little devils who are on alert."

"Commander Xie, command the guard company, quickly seize the commanding heights nearby, and assist the reconnaissance platoon in combat."

"Zhang Wu, the cavalry battalion is ready to attack. Once the attack is launched, it must advance to the battlefield as quickly as possible."

"See, we caught a big fish this time, a major general, and a lot of little devils as assistant officers."

"If you kill them, hehehe, you will get rich."

Chen Ziyun looked towards the nearby officers and said with a serious expression on his face.

"Yes, group seat." The officers immediately agreed.

They made preparations quickly, and the reconnaissance platoon of Monk Wei had already started operations.

The reconnaissance platoon is currently very strong, and they have four reconnaissance squads.

Equipped with four light machine guns, eight sniper rifles, 24 three-gun assaulters, and four 60MM mortars.

These fighters have rich combat experience, and almost all of them are elite soldiers.

The little devils of the independent third brigade are currently on guard at five steps, one post, ten steps and one post. They are not opponents of the reconnaissance platoon at all.

That is to say, while the reconnaissance platoon was operating, Li Yunlong's troops also observed the existence of the field observation group.

The [-]-day puppet army advanced towards the Huting stronghold, and there was a big loophole in their defense.

Li Yunlong commanded the troops to search quickly, and soon got the news, and came here quickly.

"Hehehe, I really didn't expect it, there really are big fish here."

"Da Biao, look quickly, there is a major general, more than a dozen assistant officers, and countless lieutenants."

"Get rich, this time is really an eye-opener, just let our old Li get rich."

"But speaking of it, Brother Ziyun is really powerful, and his sense of the battlefield is really terrifying."

Li Yunlong raised his binoculars, and when he saw Hattori Naotomi and other little devil officers, his face was full of smiles.

Zhang Dabiao stared wide-eyed, showing an incredulous expression.

He did not expect that there would be so many Japanese officers here.

"Captain, I don't know why the little devil gathered so many officers here."

"It's no wonder there are a lot of little devils guarding around here. It turned out to be to protect their safety."

"Captain Chen is indeed very powerful. According to the investigation report, it is definitely not easy to judge that there is a big fish."

"Leader, let's not waste time, just rush over and kill them all."

Zhang Dabiao couldn't wait any longer, he looked at Li Yunlong and said anxiously.

Without hesitation, Li Yunlong quickly found Wang Chengzhu, the company commander of the mountain artillery company.

This time they came with four Japanese-style [-]-style mountain cannons, and Li Yunlong wanted to end the battle here quickly.

After all, the independent detachment is under a lot of pressure. The longer they delay here, the greater the casualties and losses there will be.

"Regimental Commander...the distance is too far, the shells can hit it, but we can't guarantee that it will hit the target accurately."

"Advancing to about 2000 meters, we can accurately hit the target through direct-pointing shelling."

Wang Chengzhu raised his binoculars and looked at it, with a troubled expression on his face.

The 6000-type mountain artillery has a range of more than [-] meters, but Wang Chengzhu and other artillerymen are rushing ducks to the shelves.

They used to shoot mortars, but now they have mastered mountain artillery shooting and cannot do accurate bombardment.

Even if Chen Ziyun taught them, the artillerymen didn't just have ideas.

They don't have rangefinders, high and low planes, artillery teams and other artillery professional equipment. It is difficult to hit the target at a long distance.

"Company Commander Wang, don't care if he can hit accurately, give the little devil a quick shot first."

"Fire more than a dozen shells first, and then our first battalion will make a surprise attack..."

Zhang Dabiao was on the side, directly suggesting.

"Bullshit, the little devil is a fool, stand still and wait for your battalion to fight."

"Look at how many trucks and motorcycles they have. If the artillery fires here, it will definitely scare the snake away."

"They got in the car and evacuated directly. If you have two legs in one battalion, can you still catch up with their four-wheeled truck?"

"Da Biao, you can't fight randomly, even if you want to fight a tough battle, you have to use your brain."

Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong said with widened eyes.

Indeed, as long as Wang Chengzhu's artillery company fired, it would be fine if it could kill Hattori Naochen.

But as long as he is not killed, the little devil will definitely evacuate in a car as soon as possible.

Li Yunlong did not let the mountain artillery company fire, but continued to advance forward with the troops.

At this time, Chen Ziyun was also acting cautiously.

What Li Yunlong considered, Chen Ziyun considered.

After all, the mission of the system is to completely annihilate the field observation group.

As long as any kid from the battlefield observation group escapes, the mission will fail completely.

Chen Ziyun asked Monk Wei to scout the platoon and solve the problem of guarding against little devils along the way.

Xie Yunxia's guard company seized the commanding heights, and the cavalry battalion was going to penetrate towards the north side of the field observation group to block their evacuation road.

As long as the little devil is blocked and flees towards the north, the battlefield observation group will definitely be a turtle in the urn.

At [-]:[-] in the afternoon, Chen Ziyun's troops and Li Yunlong's troops were quickly advancing towards the field observation group.

Ten minutes later, the Zhangwu Cavalry Battalion took the lead in taking action, and hundreds of cavalry troops quickly moved to the north side and detoured.

The horses moved quickly, and patches of dust flew up.

Naotomi Hattori, who was waiting near the truck, soon heard a voice.

Immediately afterwards, a senior officer pointed to the east side and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Cavalry, this is cavalry."

"What's going on, the independent mixed third brigade will not have such a large cavalry unit."

"Could it be that the First Army Command sent them here to protect us?"

Officer Dazuo looked at the dust that kept appearing on the east side and heard the sound of horses trampling the ground, with a puzzled expression on his face.

At this time, gunshots began to appear on the east side. It was the vigilant little devils who started shooting at the cavalry battalion.

But the cavalry battalion quickly counterattacked and quickly finished them off.

"Your Excellency, this is not our cavalry unit!"

"Please get in the car quickly and withdraw to the county seat immediately."

At this time, the major who was independently mixed into the third brigade quickly came over and hurriedly said to Hattori Naotomi.
