Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1020 Head-on blow (first update!)

At eight o'clock in the morning, the sound of shell explosions from mortar test firing sounded on the Eighth Route Army's defense line, breaking the tranquility on the battlefield.

Soon, this sporadic explosion became dense.

More than 20 Japanese puppet troops emerged from the defense line that stretched for more than 1000 kilometers. Armed with guns and heavy machine guns, they walked out of the defense line and approached the Eighth Route Army's defense line step by step.

"Regimental Commander, the devils really started to attack!" The chief of staff of the regiment command post who was standing next to the regimental commander on the fifth regiment position of the Suide Military Region, which was nearly ten kilometers away from the Pingdingzhuang stronghold, reminded him nervously and expectantly.

"Fortunately, we received a reminder from the commander last night, otherwise we were unprepared. Faced with the sudden attack of the devils, and the attack was launched during the usual breakfast, the troops would definitely suffer heavy losses!" Seeing that the devils used all the mortars and Heavy machine gun, the head of the group said with lingering fear.

The chief of staff said: "Now that we are prepared, we will definitely be able to catch the devils by surprise. Commander, the troops have finished their breakfast half an hour ago. There are steamed buns, rice, and pork stewed vermicelli. Hide in the position with a full meal, and wait for the order from the regiment headquarters to clean up the devils who came to kill from the opposite side!"

"Specifically how to fight, please order the leader!"

The head of the regiment suddenly became serious, staring at the chief of staff and asked: "The [-] rounds of ammunition sent to us by the commander should be divided!"

"It has been distributed to all combat troops. Now each of our heavy machine guns has more than 1000 rounds of ammunition, light machine guns also have four to five hundred rounds, and each rifleman has ten rounds of ammunition in his hand. Our regiment started from the formation, It's the first time I've ever been so rich!"

"Okay!" A very satisfied smile appeared on the serious face of the group leader.

Then he ordered: "Since this is the case, then we will give the devil's attacking troops a head-on blow!"

"Order, all the troops are hidden for me, prepare bullets and grenades, and the melon grenade of the little devil ~ Put the enemy 50 meters away and then concentrate firepower to attack and counterattack!"

"There are more than 300 Japanese and puppet troops in the attacking force. This battle must leave me with at least half of the Japanese and puppet troops!"

Near Pingdingzhuang, the Japanese army used eight mortars to launch a 5-minute artillery attack on the second regiment's position.

During the shelling, the eight heavy machine guns were directly carried by the devils to a position less than 200 meters away from the position, and then they began to shoot at the smoky position.

The devil infantry was not a vegetarian either. Under the cover of artillery fire, they didn't stop until they were seven or eighty meters away from the position.

As soon as the shelling stopped, more than 100 devils and more than 100 puppet troops, under the cover of heavy machine guns behind them, got up from the ground and rushed towards the Eighth Route Army position!

Without heavy machine guns and mortars, the Second Regiment fought very hard.

However, the first battalion repelled the first round of attacks by the Japanese and puppet troops with rifles and light machine guns.On the battlefield, fifty or sixty corpses fell here and there.

Soon, the devil's second round of attack began.

This time, the attacking force did not stop until the shelling was 50 meters in front of the formation.

The confident devils planned to take down the front line of the Eighth Route Army in this attack.

However, after hitting out with a fist full of power, it seemed to hit cotton, without any power at all.

The Eighth Route Army on the ground retreated in less than a minute, and they retreated across the board. No, it might be more appropriate to say that they were routing, because they didn't even have any troops to cover.

Of course, the leader of the squadron led by the devil didn't want to see the fat that he had bitten into his mouth and let it fly away.

Immediately shouted: "Bag Yalu, the Eighth Route Army has been defeated by us, and it has become a rout. Catch up with them, kill them, kill them!"

The devil captain who directed the attack did not stop him. Before setting off, General Yamada gave him an order specifically to kill a regiment of the Eighth Route Army during the entire counterattack.If you don't catch up and kill these broken soldiers, if you want to wipe out a regiment, you may not be able to wait until dark.

Because he was very aware of the fighting style of the Eighth Route Army. Most of the time, they fought and ran away, and did not give the imperial army a chance to fight them and wipe them out.

With this in mind, the devils who broke through the second regiment's three lines of defense in a row finally bumped into the first regiment and the first battalion, and were blocked at the ambush circle prepared for them by the first battalion.

Perhaps the firepower shown by the first battalion was too strong. These Japanese and puppet troops stopped after only one attack, and then stood by, waiting for the artillery and heavy machine guns of the follow-up troops to come over and provide heavy fire support for themselves.

Perhaps it was because the attacking force had just gone this way, waiting ahead for artillery support.

The captain led more than 300 Japanese puppet troops, the heavy machine gun squadron and the mortar squadron were in the front, and less than [-] infantry were left in the rear. Without any defense, they directly crashed into the pocket formation.

The whole ambush went very smoothly, even a bit beyond the expectations of Captain Zhou.

Because it was daytime, a group of heavy machine gunners were asked to fight very accurately.

Ten heavy machine guns and ten light machine guns killed more than half of the devil's heavy machine gunners and gunners who were slow to react in less than three seconds.Those who are still alive have no chance to get close to mortars and heavy machine guns except to lie on the ground and crash to death.

The follow-up infantry who were attacked by five heavy machine guns and ten light machine guns reacted quickly, and only a few dozen people were killed in the instant of the exchange of fire.

But just as they were laying on the ground and preparing to fight back, ten shells fell from the sky and hit them beside them.

The captain of the Devils was just about to order the telegraph operator to report to the top, asking for support, when a shell exploded between him and the telegraph operator.

He escaped fatal injuries under the protection of guards.

The radio operator was not so lucky. He was blown to pieces and fell to the ground.

The devils attacking troops who stayed in front of the first battalion saw the accident with their own eyes and were stunned.

"Ba Ga, what are you doing in a daze? Follow me back to rescue the captain! If someone follows me to attack the battlefield!"

"Da da da..." As soon as he finished speaking, there were very dense gunshots behind him.

The Eighth Route Army who blocked him just now rushed towards him while holding the gun in his arms.

Five or six light machine guns fired together, killing a dozen or so devils who were not many on the spot.

"The first team and the Imperial Association Army left cover, and the others followed me to reinforce the battlefield and rescue the captain!" The squadron leader who led the team realized that this was a conspiracy and immediately made a decision.

However, as soon as the troops were divided, an Eighth Route Army came out from his right wing, there were as many as two or three hundred people, led by light machine guns, and rushed towards him desperately!

"It's over..."

Two words suddenly came to the head of the Devil Squadron, and then a string of bullets flew towards him, smashing him into a sieve.

In ten minutes, when the Devil's plane was still on its way, the sound of gunfire on the battlefield ended.

Nearly a thousand and eighth Route Army rushed to the battlefield and seized the time to clean up the battlefield.

"Commander, all the devils who crossed our line of defense have been wiped out, including a major and captain of the devils. Countless of them have been captured, and the troops are cleaning the battlefield!" Commander Zhou found Commander Wang and reported excitedly.

"Chief, our regiment leader asked me to report that the troops have re-blocked the gap opened by the devil!"

"Yes, Wang Ping set up the stage and let us sing another good show! Order, the troops quickly clean up the battlefield, withdraw from the battlefield, and collect the corpses of the Japanese and puppet soldiers after dark, and then return them to the little devil!"

"Not surprisingly, the devils who launched a feint attack from other directions will stop attacking in a short time, and ask the regiments to strengthen their vigilance. If there is a chance, I don't mind if they fight the devil's attacking troops for a counterattack. Only by counterattacking can we capture it!!"

"And the most important thing is to send a telegram to Commander Wang: "The devil has been killed, and the troops continue to implement the original plan!" "
