I'm killing enemies with my sword and exploding equipment

Chapter 654 Why are you so scared now? Scared to death? Coward!

How Okamura Jining reported to Old Japanese Tojo that the Third Flying Regiment was almost completely wiped out will not be described for now.

Just say that the lady is here.

The leading troops of the 21st and 35th Infantry Divisions, a full infantry brigade, have arrived at Guanxia.

Although it was already getting late and twilight was falling, when Major Nobuji Sakamoto, captain of the Little Japanese Battalion, saw gray military uniforms already defending Guancheng, he did not retreat to camp and wait until dawn tomorrow to attack again.

Instead, after a brief observation, he found that there were only about a thousand troops defending the pass. He immediately smiled and ordered his brigade to launch a fierce attack on Niangzi Pass.

In his opinion, it was still more than half an hour before dark, and if he had a fully formed brigade and captured Niangziguan, which was stationed by a regiment on Tuba Road, wouldn't that be a sure thing?
……

Following his order, the infantry artillery and heavy machine guns in the team of little devils immediately deployed, aiming and firing wildly to suppress fire.

Then the little Japanese infantry assumed a charging posture and rushed towards the gate.

All of them had ferocious faces and howling sounds like wild beasts coming from their mouths.

This was the tactic they had just used when they defeated Lao Chang's army of hundreds of thousands on the battlefield in southern Shanxi.

In Sakamoto Nobuji's view: Their tactics defeated hundreds of thousands of regular troops with solid fortifications on the Nakajo Mountain battlefield.

Now, of course, it's even easier to bully the lady into shutting down the dirty road.

However, he never expected that their tactics that were very effective a few days ago would not work at all here!

The Eighth Route Army, which was closed, did not see their crazy offensive, and immediately became weak-minded and just wanted to escape.

Instead, he stayed firmly in his fighting position and launched a resolute counterattack with the guns in his hands!
His brigade was equipped with two Type 2 infantry cannons and 12 heavy machine guns. Not long after they opened fire, several Type 81 infantry cannons and mm mortars suddenly appeared and were blocked one by one. After calling the name, he became silent.

The warriors who were launching the Pig Charge were swept to the ground by more than a dozen heavy machine guns as if they were cutting wheat, making it impossible for them to move forward at all!

At this moment, Nobuji Sakamoto was suddenly shocked and angry, and roared crazily:
"Baga! How come the artillery fire on Tubal Road is so fierce?"

Little did he know that it was Kong Jie's new second regiment that was blocking them at Guancheng.

Not only did they seize a large number of light and heavy machine guns and grenade launchers when they eliminated the 57th Infantry Division to supplement their own firepower, Kong Jie also obtained ten Type infantry cannons from Yang Yuanshan!
To put it bluntly, except for the lower proportion of veterans, the current new second regiment can be said to be the first-class main regiment of our army!

After all, their firepower is the strongest among all other regiments in our army, except for a few regiments in northwestern Shanxi!

Even those absolute main groups with numbers cannot have ten ninety-two styles!

And there’s no shortage of shells!
……

Seeing his men beaten to death by Tubalu's heavy machine guns, Sakamoto Nobuji suddenly understood: his wish to capture Niangziguan before dark, so that he could show off to the division commander, was completely shattered.

He could only grit his teeth and order:

"Quick, quick, turn backwards!"

Following his order, the little Japs who had been charging in the hail of bullets suddenly felt as if they had been granted amnesty, abandoned more than a hundred corpses, and began to turn around and run away.

Like a frightened rabbit!
They even secretly resented their parents for not giving them more legs.

……

When the lady closed the door, the soldiers of the New Second Regiment naturally cheered and shouted excitedly when they saw the little devil running away so quickly.

Everyone taunted them wildly and aroused hatred:

"Little devils, aren't you very fierce? Why are you running away now?"

"You little son of a bitch, grandpa still has more bullets. Keep charging! Grandpa is waiting for you!"

"You bastards, aren't you brave warriors with your samurai spirit?

Why are you so timid now? Scared to death? Coward! "

……

Unlike these ordinary soldiers who were ecstatic, Kong Jie retreated when he saw the little Japs charging, but there was no trace of joy on his face.

Taking a sudden puff of his pipe, he couldn't help cursing:

"What a smart little kid!"

Dou Guangjie, the political commissar next to him, heard this and immediately asked suspiciously:

"Lao Kong, what do you mean?
Do you still want them to continue attacking? "

"This group of little devils only has one group and is an 'isolated unit'. If they continue to charge regardless of their casualties, then we may not be able to take advantage of them.

But they retreated now, clearly preparing to wait for the large forces behind them to come.

Once the two divisions of the Little Devils arrive, we will definitely not be able to take advantage of this! "Kong Jie explained.

"I see."

Dou Guangjie nodded repeatedly, feeling very sorry.

Just now, the little Japanese were completely unaware that they had so many artillery pieces, and they arrogantly exposed the artillery pieces and heavy machine guns to their eyes. Then they suffered a big loss after just one encounter.

If we wait for the small Japanese army to arrive, the artillery advantage will obviously be transferred to the small Japanese army.

"Lao Kong, what should we do now?"

"What can be done?
We can only try to find ways to deal with them. "

Kong Jie blew out a big smoke ring.

Then he ordered decisively:

"All artillery and heavy machine guns, all adjust their positions!
Everyone else, hurry up to eat and rest, and arrange sentries to guard against sneak attacks by the little devils at night.

Telegraph operator, send a report to your superiors, informing us of our exploratory exchange of fire with the Jaap forward brigade, blowing up two of their artillery pieces, more than a dozen heavy machine guns, and annihilating about a hundred enemy soldiers. "

"Yes!"

"Ye Shuqiang, come here!"

Kong Jie called to his first battalion commander again.

"Captain, are you looking for me?"

"Well, you arrange for a few people to sneak down to Guancheng tonight and cause trouble near the Jaap camp, making them think that we have left Guancheng for a night attack. Don't let them have a peaceful sleep!"

Kong Jie explained.

"understand!"

Harassment, how can Ye Shuqiang, a veteran who is used to fighting guerrilla warfare, not understand?
He agreed immediately.

Kong Jie added another sentence:
"Remember to find a few smart people. The little devil will definitely have someone who is sending out the whistle secretly. Don't let them bring food to the little devil who is sending out the whistle secretly. Otherwise, I will lose my people!"

"Captain, don't worry, I know."

Ye Shuqiang patted his chest and made the promise.

……

Speaking of the little devil, Nobuji Sakamoto suffered a loss and immediately retreated 3 kilometers and camped on the mountain road.

Then send someone to report to the division headquarters behind.

Soon, his people arrived at the 21st Division Headquarters, met the division commander, Lieutenant General Tanaka Kuichi, and reported the situation ahead.

Hearing that his people actually lost all their artillery, heavy machine guns, and more than a hundred warriors in a single encounter, Tanaka Jiuichi was very angry.

He slapped the messenger on the face and roared:
"Baga! Nobuji Sakamoto, you idiot!
Doesn't he make probing attacks?

Has he thrown all the rules of conduct behind him? "

The ordering soldier felt that he was even more unjust than Dou E, and thought to himself: Your Excellency, the division commander, you can scold the brigade captain, but why are you beating me?

I am so innocent!

But he didn't dare to stab the opponent, so he could only nod and bow obediently, indicating that he accepted the insult from the division commander.

Tanaka Jiu cursed for five minutes before he stopped spitting and ordered:

"It is getting late today, so I order Nobuji Sakamoto to stop advancing and camp on the spot. We will attack early tomorrow morning when we arrive.

Order him to make sure to defend the camp and guard against Tubal Road's sneak attacks at night! "

"Hi!"

……

After sending the messenger away, Tanaka Kuichi ordered the telegraph operator:

"Send a message to General Okamura and inform our forward troops that they have arrived at Niangzi Pass and are expected to break through the pass tomorrow and continue westward!"

Then he ordered the entire division to:
"Quick, quick, speed up the march!
Join our forward troops! "
