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

Most of the little devils from the First and Second Squadrons of the First Brigade of the Special Agent Wing advanced rapidly at this time.

They were not aware of the danger at all. In their opinion, the open space in front of them was absolutely safe.

Now as long as they advance quickly, they can cut off the connection between the third and fourth battalions of the new regiment.

But at this moment, Chen Ziyun decisively commanded the machine gun battalion, and the combat defense artillery battalion launched fire.

The twenty-four Type 91 light machine guns of the machine gun battalion fired first, and dense bullets were fired accurately at the little Japanese.

These light machine guns were captured by the Japanese army. They are equipped with optical sights and can shoot accurately.

At the same time, six infantry guns and twelve combat defense guns also started firing.

Twelve large-caliber heavy machine guns fired in bursts.

When a 13MM large-caliber bullet is fired, as long as it is hit, the body will definitely be torn apart.

The machine gun battalion and the combat defense artillery battalion started shooting at the same time. The little Japanese who charged towards the position fell into a pool of blood one after another.

The fierce fighting continued, and many little devils were shot dead instantly.

The two lieutenants who were commanding the battle behind them had expressions of surprise on their faces.

Their eyes widened and expressions of disbelief appeared on their faces.

"Bagayalu, how is this possible? How is this possible? Even if the weapons of Li Yunlong and Tubalu have been strengthened, how come they have such a large number of heavy weapons!"

"Immediately contact the machine gun squadron, and the rapid-fire artillery squadron will perform fire suppression. Each unit's light machine gun shooters, semi-automatic riflemen, and snipers will quickly counterattack."

"Grenade detachment, fire grenades with all your strength, be sure to suppress their firepower."

"The submachine gunners dispersed and hid, waiting for the right opportunity to launch another impact operation."

"Baga Yalu, they... they don't seem to be Tubalu. Tubalu will not have such fighting power."

"They machine gun shooters simply cannot achieve such accuracy."

"Chen Ziyun's elite troops, they must be Chen Ziyun's elite troops."

The two squadron leaders had serious expressions on their faces and spoke immediately.

The machine gun squadron and rapid-fire artillery squadron that provide cover behind do not need them to issue orders.

Machine guns and rapid-fire cannons quickly fired at the position in an attempt to suppress the firepower of the machine gun battalion and defend the artillery battalion.

However, as their positions were exposed, the 37MM combat anti-artillery under the combat anti-artillery battalion and the Type infantry artillery under the machine gun battalion quickly launched bombardments.

Armor-piercing shells and grenades continued to fire, and machine gun squadrons and rapid-fire gun squadrons were hit.

Two Japanese rapid-fire cannons were destroyed on the spot.

When the First Battalion's Lieutenant Colonel saw this scene, his face instantly turned livid.

He looked towards Yamamoto Kazuki next to him, preparing to personally command the troops to launch an attack.

Kazuki Yamamoto held the telescope tightly with both hands, with a solemn expression on his face.

He observed carefully for a while and decisively issued a combat order.

"Quickly withdraw the troops and temporarily stop the offensive operations."

"We were fooled. The enemy troops deliberately attracted us here to carry out combat strikes."

"There must be Chen Ziyun's elite troops in this open space. I have fought against this unit before, and they have very strong combat effectiveness."

"I really didn't expect that Chen Ziyun would be so cunning and bring the troops here in such a short time."

"Immediately contact the Makino City 110th Regiment and the Yuanyang City 18th Regiment."

"Detailing the situation here, they can now quickly assemble the main force and launch an all-out combat strike."

"As long as they seize the opportunity decisively, two infantry regiments, equipped with a howitzer brigade, can easily fight a battle of annihilation."

"Chen Ziyun is still very bold, but this time he has completely reduced the combat effectiveness of the 18th Regiment."

Yamamoto Kazuki had a serious expression on his face and decisively issued the combat order.

He did not arrange for his troops to continue to attack because he knew that if he attacked with all his strength, he would definitely suffer heavy losses.

The captain of the Lieutenant Colonel had an expression of reluctance on his face, but he finally gave the order to retreat.

The four assault squadrons that launched the attack began to retreat one after another.

But just as they were evacuating, Zhu Mingxuan, a regiment attached to the Second Artillery Regiment, decisively seized the opportunity.

Ten Soviet field guns fired one after another, and grenades were fired at the little Japanese troops.

As the explosion sounded, shrapnel quickly spread in all directions.

The evacuating Japanese troops were hit and suffered casualties.

Yamamoto Kazuki couldn't help but gasp when he saw this scene. He didn't expect that Chen Ziyun actually brought an artillery unit.

As time passed and the sky gradually became dark, the Japanese troops temporarily gave up the attack and began to defend and rest in nearby villages.

The captain of the Lieutenant Colonel went to various ministries to count casualties and losses and make deployments at the same time.

This time the special agent wing mobilized 1,500 troops, and so far they have suffered more than 200 casualties.

Among them, more than 100 people were seriously injured and killed. Such losses still dealt a huge blow to the special agent unit.

In the past, these little devils in the special agent wing were very arrogant. They thought that they were invincible and that no other unit could be their opponent.

However, now, after this blow, the morale of these little devils has obviously become low.

They stationed themselves everywhere for defense, with heavy expressions on their faces, fearing that Chen Ziyun would command the troops to attack at any time.

"Your Excellency, Captain, more than a hundred of us have been seriously injured, and about a hundred others have been injured."

"There is also a certain degree of loss in terms of weapons, which still has a great impact on our combat effectiveness."

"It's getting dark now, so we can only stay where we are."

"However, judging from the current situation, Chen Ziyun's troops are likely to launch combat strikes overnight."

"They still maintain an advantage in strength and weapons over us. If they launch a night attack, we may suffer greater casualties."

Captain Zhongsao came to Yamamoto Kazuki and said with a serious expression on his face.

Standing in front of the map, Kazuki Yamamoto began to make detailed arrangements.

What he can do now is to defend with all his strength to ensure that the troops do not suffer too many casualties.

As for their withdrawal to Makino Castle, it's not that Yamamoto Kazuki didn't want to.

He was worried that if he withdrew like this, he would definitely become a laughing stock.

And if they evacuate now, they may encounter blows on the road. Without bunkers, their losses will be even greater.

"The 18th Regiment and the 110th Regiment will definitely launch operations with all their strength, and the enemy forces at Makino Castle will suffer heavy losses."

"When these enemy forces are severely damaged, these two regiments can rush over at any time to help us carry out combat strikes."

"So as long as we hold our current position and wait for the follow-up troops to come for reinforcements, then we can win."

"Chen Ziyun wants to eat us overnight, but they simply can't do it."

Yamamoto Kazuki had a serious expression on his face and spoke directly.

The captain of the Lieutenant Colonel immediately nodded in agreement, and he immediately began to convey the order.

At this time, in the blocking position south of Muye City, Li Yunlong commanded the first battalion, second battalion, cavalry battalion, artillery battalion, and mountain artillery battalion to continue defense. The 18th Regiment of the Little Devils launched attacks one after another. The troops from both sides fought fiercely, and both sides suffered casualties.

At this time, the powerful combat capabilities of the 18th Infantry Regiment were fully demonstrated. Although their more than troops suffered casualties, they were still able to launch effective attacks.

The troops from both sides continued to fight, and the blocking position of the new regiment was endangered several times.

If Li Chongtao's first brigade gave up fighting at this time, the new regiment would be in danger.

However, Li Chongtao fully implemented Chen Ziyun's order, and the 358th Regiment and the 601st Regiment took turns to attack.

Ten Jin orogenic guns and ten Soviet-style field guns continued the bombardment.

A large number of artillery shells were fired at the little Japanese troops, and the attacks of the little Japanese troops were restrained time and time again.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the 18th Wing temporarily stopped fighting.

Captain Tanabe Matsutaro stood in front of the map, and several officers stood aside.

Yamamoto Kazuki's news had already been passed on, and the 110th Wing also immediately sent a message. They also planned to attack immediately.

However, Matsutaro Tanabe did not agree. He continued to let the 110th Regiment and other troops continue to defend the Makino Castle position.

This is not because Matsutaro Tanabe is arrogant, but because he is worried that this is a trap.

If the main force of the 110th Regiment attacks, and some troops quickly raid Makino City, then Makino City will be lost, and the consequences will be disastrous.

What's more, the Sixth Battalion and other troops under the 18th Regiment are still in Yuanyang City, so they can still quickly attack to assist the main force of the Regiment in combat.

"The Tubal Road in front of us has suffered a large degree of casualties after our continuous attacks."

"As long as we continue to attack this Tubal road, it will surely fall apart in an instant."

"So the next focus of our operations will be on the Jinsui Army on the flank. We must assemble all the troops of the 18th Regiment and attack it with all our strength."

"We need to quickly and completely defeat them overnight and make them lose their combat effectiveness in an instant."

"According to Captain Yamamoto's report, there are elite enemy troops in the area north of Makino Castle."

"We first defeated the Shanxi-Sui Army troops on the flanks, then defeated the Tuba Road troops on the front, and then joined forces with the 110th Regiment and the Special Agent Regiment to defeat the enemy's elite troops north of Makino City."

"We will completely defeat them first, and then we will gather all the troops together to carry out mopping up, lower down and annihilate their troops."

Matsutaro Tanabe had a serious expression on his face, and he spoke directly.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Captain." The nearby officers agreed.

The Little Japanese troops began to take a short rest, and at the same time, the wing headquarters of the 18th Regiment issued combat orders one after another.

The little Japanese troops here in Yuanyang City also began to mobilize and were ready to attack.

As for the positions of the First Brigade and the New Regiment, the various units have also temporarily stopped fighting.

"Damn it, these little devils are so damn hard to deal with."

"The artillery battalion actually lost three infantry guns and two mortars, and the mountain artillery battalion also lost two mountain cannons."

"The artillery unit lost seven pieces of artillery and about a hundred casualties."

"The number of casualties in the first and second battalions has exceeded 300, and various weapons have also been lost."

"Old Xing, none of the previous elite divisions of the Japs were so difficult to defeat."

Here at the new regiment's position, Li Yunlong frowned and said while listening to the casualty reports from each unit.

The deputy commander Xing Zhiguo on the side had a solemn expression. They had suffered considerable losses in this battle.

And Xing Zhiguo also knew that if the first brigade on the flank did not fully support the operation this time, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Lao Li, the little devil has calmed down now, let's hurry up and move."

"The position here has been almost destroyed. If the Japs from Makino City come out, we will definitely suffer."

"While we can move quickly now, let's get out of here first, otherwise if the little devils attack overnight, we will suffer greater losses."

Xing Zhiguo hesitated for a moment, then he made a direct suggestion.

When Li Yunlong heard that he was about to move, his eyes widened and he shook his head.

For him, Lao Li, leaving the battlefield with his troops is no different from deserting.

Especially since the troops of the First Brigade were still watching, Li Yunlong would not do this.

"Continue to hold our position. This time we just need to obey the command completely."

"This little devil is indeed very powerful, but I believe Chen Ziyun is even more powerful."

"Lao Xing, just watch, we are definitely going to make a big splash this time."

"Hehehe, I think Brother Ziyun will definitely annihilate this so-called elite 18th Regiment."

"It would be better if we could capture their alliance flag."

Li Yunlong said with a smile that he still had great confidence in Chen Ziyun.

Time passed and the surroundings became silent.

At twelve o'clock in the evening, the little devil troops began to carry out combat operations.

Matsutaro Tanabe, captain of the 18th Regiment, personally commanded, and all its main troops were dispatched for combat.

The Japs troops here in Yuanyang City took the lead in attacking. The Sixth Brigade was equipped with twelve mortars and twelve heavy machine guns and directly attacked the First Brigade position.

For a while, fierce gunfire sounds continued, and dense grenades and bullets were fired towards the position one after another.

With the sound of gunfire, the little devils quickly moved forward.

The 358st Brigade troops actively launched defense, and the th Regiment directly faced the enemy.

Brigadier Li Chongtao had a serious expression on his face. The 601st Regiment dispatched an infantry battalion to the artillery position to protect the artillery units.

"Brigade, these little devils are really not simple. They are very powerful and can carry out precise strikes with various weapons."

"They only have more than a thousand people, but now they are almost able to suppress the 358th Regiment."

"Tourist, can we...can we..."

A staff officer came to Li Chongtao and said with a serious expression on his face.

"Don't even think about it. A brigade was defeated by one of their reinforced groups. If this matter spreads, we will become a laughing stock."

"Order the artillery units to be ready and wait for the bombardment order."

"Contact Commander Wu Ziqiang and ask them to strengthen frontal defense and deploy troops to attack from the flanks."

Li Chongtao looked serious and immediately issued the order.

"Yes, Brigade." The staff member agreed immediately.

The troops of the First Brigade began to hold on to their position with all their strength, and they blocked the attack of the Sixth Battalion of the Little Devils.

However, the Sixth Brigade did not give up and continued to attack.

At around one o'clock in the morning, they deployed all weapons in relevant areas.

The major captain looked at the 358th regiment's position with a sneer on his lips.

At this time, he began to issue general attack orders. (End of chapter)
