I'm killing enemies with my sword and exploding equipment

Chapter 734 The Special Forces Regiment’s tanks are coming!

The special operations company's sneak attack killed the Japanese regiment commander and directly disrupted the Japanese offensive rhythm.

After discovering that their headquarters was under attack, they had to abandon their attack on the New 1st Regiment, temporarily retreat, and encircle and suppress the special operations company in the mountains and plains.

However, this kind of encirclement is of course useless, as Wei Dayong had already run away with his men.

When the Japanese realized that continuing the pursuit was just a waste of time, they gave up and returned to the road.

By this time, the fire at the wing headquarters had been extinguished.

The regiment commander and chief of staff, Sosuke Kawada, commanded the soldiers to carry out the bodies of the burned Japanese soldiers and placed them on the side of the road.

There were hundreds of coke pieces in total, emitting a peculiar smell that made one's scalp tingle.

The person with the highest status among them is, of course, Colonel Masami Takagi, commander of the 223rd Regiment.

When Kawada Sosuke saw this scene, he was filled with anger. He gritted his teeth and ordered a telegraph operator who was almost burned to death:

"Hurry up, send a message to the division commander and report this matter!"

"Hi!"

The telegraph operator agreed with lingering fear.

Then he hurried to send the message.

……

When the 36th Division's commander, Lieutenant General Iseki Shinobu, received the telegram, he was naturally very angry and hurried to the armored train to meet Kazuo Shinozuka.

"Commander, our regiment transporting food was ambushed by the Tubalu in Shibangou ahead, and the regiment commander Gao Mujun was killed."

"idiot!
How did this idiot Takagi Masami march?
Didn't he send out scouts ahead?
Did he also forget the Locust Army's firepower reconnaissance regulations? "

Kazuo Shinozuka was furious.

Shinobu Iseki looked embarrassed and quietly defended himself:
"They didn't expect the Eighth Route Army to be so bold as to ambush tens of thousands of them!"

"Bagayalu! Idiot!

The Tubalu were able to capture five cities in northwest Shanxi and wipe out more than 57 people from the th Division of the Locust Army. What's the point of ambushing a mere of them?"

Kazuo Shinozuka became angrier as he spoke.

He couldn't understand why the officers under his command were still so careless when the Eighth Route Army's combat record was so terrible!

It was as if they were deliberately giving heads to the Eighth Route Army!
If he didn't know that these guys were the backbone of the Locust Army and many of them came from samurai families, Kazuo Shinozuka would probably have suspected them of being undercover agents of the Eighth Route Army!
After being angry for a long time, Shinozuka Kazuo finally calmed down and asked:

“How many people are there on Tubal Road?

Dare you ambush so many of them?"

"Kawada-kun's telegram said that the Tubalu had only one regiment, no more than 1500 men at most. Although they had to artillery pieces, they were all Type infantry guns and mortars, so they did not report immediately after encountering the enemy.

Instead, I plan to report back after I have eliminated this group of overconfident Eighth Route Army soldiers."

"What? You have less than 1500 people, and you dare to ambush me? There are tens of thousands of locust soldiers?
Is this Tubalu crazy?"

Kazuo Shinozuka's face was full of surprise.

“I haven’t figured this out yet.

Could it be that most of the Eighth Route Army’s forces were used in Shuiquan to deal with the 35th Division?

So there are no more people?"

Iseki Shinobu said tentatively.

Kazuo Shinozuka felt that this idea made some sense. He guessed that the battle at Shuiquan might have entered the most critical moment.

So the enemy didn't want their troops to reach the water spring.

That was why he so abnormally sent out more than 1000 people to stop his own tens of thousands of people.

Thinking of this, he immediately asked:

"How many troops did the 223rd Regiment lose? Can it still fight now?"

“We’ve lost six or seven hundred men.

However, the regiment chief of staff Kawada is now reorganizing his troops, preparing to launch a new attack and eliminate the Eighth Route Army that is standing in their way.

According to Kawada-kun's report, they originally had a clear advantage against the ambushed Eighth Route Army, and they only had an hour to destroy the enemy.

But they didn't expect that the Tubalu actually sent a small force of dozens of people to go around the rear of their position and launch a sneak attack using mortars to fire incendiary bombs, which caused Gao Mujun to die in battle and interrupted their progress in annihilating the enemy. "

Iseki Shinobu answered.

"Nani? Incendiary bomb??

Baghya Road!

This group of enemies must be the ones who launched a surprise attack on my Jinyang Airport!

Order Kawada-kun to wipe out this group of enemies, not letting any one escape!"

Kazuo Shinozuka roared immediately.

New and old grudges suddenly surged into his heart, making his eyes red.

I even wanted to rush up to them and chop them with my sword!

"Hey! I understand!"

Shinobu Iseki nodded quickly, turned around and prepared to leave.

"Immediately send another regiment forward to prevent any Eighth Route Army troops from escaping the net.

After destroying this group of local Eighth Route Army soldiers, they quickly advanced towards the water spring!

The battle at Shuiquan may have reached a fever pitch. If our warriors arrive quickly, they may be able to achieve unimaginable results!"

Kazuo Shinozuka added, excitement sparking in his eyes.

"Hi!"……

Shibangou battlefield.

The soldiers of the new regiment got precious time to rest.

While drinking water and eating dry food, they worked hard to dig two more trenches in preparation for hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese later.

Ding Wei, feeling much more relaxed, ran to his artillery battalion and asked the battalion commander, Chen Yong:
"Chen Yong, how many guns do you have left?"

"Commander, we have eight infantry guns and six mortars left.

But we don’t have many shells left.”

Chen Yong's face was filled with resentment.

He had finally been able to live the life of a wealthy man, but in today's battle, he lost half of his wealth. He was so heartbroken that he couldn't sleep.

“My goodness, such a huge loss.

Our gunners are still not as good as the Japanese!
Didn't I tell you to change positions after each shot?"

Ding Wei was also heartbroken.

The battle hadn't even ended yet, but he had already lost nearly fifteen artillery pieces, which made him want to cry.

Back then, even one or two 60mm mortars would have made him so excited that he wouldn’t be able to sleep for three days!
"Captain, we are constantly changing positions.

But the Japanese mountain artillery was too powerful!

Our Type 92 is no match for them at all.

Commander, when will you get us two mountain cannons?

Otherwise, this frontal artillery battle will be impossible to fight!"

Chen Yong explained.

"Good fellow, you still want mountain artillery!
Damn it, don’t I want to? "

Ding Wei couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Then command:

"Hurry up and reorganize the team and prepare for battle!

Once the shells are used up, retreat immediately with the guns and artillery, do you understand?

It’s not easy for me to train your artillery, so don’t let me shoot you all down!”

"Yes!"

……

The New 1st Regiment was well prepared, and so were the Japanese, so the battle soon resumed.

The sound of cannons, gunfire, and grenade explosions resounded throughout the battlefield.

Soldiers from both sides of the enemy were stained with blood on the battlefield.

The battle became intense almost as soon as it began.

Sosuke Kawada even maliciously arranged a supervision team to monitor the offensive of the Locust Association Army's Single Division.

Now, Division Commander Zhong Yunhe no longer dared to slack off so blatantly.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and charge forward madly with his men.

As a result, the soldiers of the New 1st Regiment felt a little exhausted.

After all, their numbers were too small, and two fists could not beat four hands.

Ding Wei had to lead his men to plug the gaps everywhere with great anxiety.

The increasingly tight situation made his heart sink gradually.

I couldn't help but say to Zhong Zhicheng:

"Yang Yuanshan's vanguard has been here for nearly an hour, right?
Why haven't their main forces arrived yet?"

The political commissar Zhong Zhicheng was also holding a gun and shooting at the Japanese.

Hearing his words, I smiled bitterly and replied:

"Old Ding, the special forces regiment has more artillery. Maybe that's why they are slow to arrive."

"Alas! If they don't come soon, all my people will be killed."

Ding Wei couldn't help but sigh.

He took a quick look at the position and knew that more than half of the New 1st Regiment had suffered casualties.

And the Japanese were about to rush into their trenches.

Once the hand-to-hand combat begins, the casualties of the New 1st Regiment will increase rapidly.

In less than two hours, they will be completely wiped out!

Just when Ding Wei was extremely anxious, someone suddenly shouted:

"Captain, listen! What's that sound?"

Upon hearing this, Ding Wei listened carefully, and heard a huge roar amid the rumbling sound of artillery.

He quickly looked to the east and saw eight streams of black smoke coming out of the road in the distance.

This scene immediately made him shout in ecstasy and excitement:
“Comrades, the tanks of the Special Forces Regiment are coming!!!
The Japs are about to run away, let's not let them go!

Hit him hard! "
