Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 223 I'm Learning (One Update!)

The news reached the former enemy headquarters of the Independence Regiment, and the entire headquarters erupted.

Chief of Staff Zeng Quan was the most straightforward, exclaiming excitedly: "This Yang Xiong fought so well, he even hit a one-to-three casualty ratio, and he was on the frontal battlefield with the Japanese army head-to-head. Commander, political commissar, I have an idea, if this casualty ratio can be maintained, our independent regiment can consume all the Japanese and puppet troops outside the mountain with our own strength, and annihilate them!" Political commissar Cheng Xiao also showed great satisfaction on his face. With a smile: "Zhang Yunshan is right, this Yang Xiong has created a miracle and must be rewarded!"

"I suggest that we personally give him credit to the military division!"

Wang Ping finally spoke, but from Wang Ping's face, neither Cheng Xiao nor Zeng Quan saw much joy!
"It is certain to ask for credit, not only Yang Xiong, but all fighters participating in the battle must ask for credit!"

"However, Chief of Staff, if you want to maintain this casualty ratio, it is basically impossible!"

"The reason why Yang Xiong was able to eat so many Japanese and puppet troops, we have just seen, there is a mystery in it. The devils are not aware of our strength, especially our machine gun bunker, so they are caught off guard and eat two of them in one bite. Multiple infantry squadrons!"

"Do you think that the next attack devils will stupidly send several infantry squadrons to hit us at the muzzle?"

"And our machine gun bunker, I'm sure, in the next battle, as soon as it is exposed, it will be bombed by devil planes immediately!"

The smiles on the faces of Zeng Quan and Cheng Xiao disappeared instantly.

Especially Cheng Xiao, who was a little overjoyed, reacted as soon as Wang Ping reminded him.

"Head, you are right, do you want to remind Zhang Yunshan!"

"Not for the time being, but we have to keep an eye on the battlefield. It would be best if Zhang Yunshan can react, but if he can't, he should be reminded if he can!"

Thousands of Japanese and puppet troops were mighty, and soon reached the second line of defense prepared for them by the Independence Regiment.

"Brigade Commander Wang, your garrison brigade sends out a company, the imperial army sends out an infantry squadron, an artillery brigade, a heavy machine gun squadron, and a mortar squadron to provide fire cover. The attack will be launched in 5 minutes!" Under the signal of Ono, the lieutenant commander The chief of staff took over the command, and ordered the brigade commander bluntly.

On the surface, it sounds like this order is a coordinated attack by the Imperial Army and the Imperial Association Army, but Brigadier Wang is not a fool. He can tell at a glance that the devils still want the Imperial Association Army to use them as cannon fodder. It can force out the firepower of the Eighth Route Army!
However, compared with the cannon fodder that directly allowed the Imperial Association Army to test the firepower of the Japanese and puppet troops at the beginning, it is now much better, and the Japanese army is attacking together.

Brigadier Wang didn't want to agree from the bottom of his heart, but who let himself eat the traitor's rice?

After a look of helplessness flashed across his face, Brigadier Wang pretended to have a very agreeable expression and replied: "Please rest assured, sir, I will give the order right away!"

The Imperial Association Army walked in front, and more than 100 devils walked behind, holding rifles, approaching the second line of defense of the Independence Regiment step by step.

During this process, more than 20 mountain artillery, field artillery, and infantry artillery of the artillery brigade smashed shells on the position desperately.

The violent explosion lasted less than a minute, and the thick gunpowder smoke enveloped the entire position.

That's not counting, when the bombardment was halfway through, three bombers flew over.

More than a dozen aerial bombs fell from the sky, further exacerbating the degree of destruction of the position.

As soon as the 10 minutes of high-intensity firepower was over, twelve mortars began shelling.

The twelve heavy machine guns were also lined up on a small high ground less than 300 meters away from the position, swishing and firing at the position.

"Kill it!" The squadron leader squatted on the ground, drew out his command knife, swung it forward and ordered loudly.

The company commander of the Imperial Association Army looked very reluctant, but under the threat of flashing bayonets behind him, he had no choice but to shake his pistol and shouted: "Brothers, the Imperial Army ordered that the Eighth Route Army's position be captured, and I will send it to you!" Go forward, the first one to rush to the Eighth Route Army's position will be promoted two ranks, and will be rewarded with 100 yuan!"

"The imperial army is right behind us, and their bayonets don't have eyes! Let's all charge forward, don't be stabbed to death by the imperial army instead of being beaten to death by the Eighth Route Army!"

The Royal Association Army plus the devils, nearly 300 people lined up in a skirmish line, rushing towards the position in a mighty manner.

The position that the engineer company worked so hard to build was almost completely bombed by this time.

There are bomb craters and blasted gaps everywhere. If everyone hadn't stayed here before the shelling, it would be hard to imagine that the ruins under your feet were still a strong defensive position consisting of two trenches more than ten minutes ago.

Li Binshan, the commander of the second battalion and the second company, is also an old Red Army, and in all his memory, he has never encountered such a situation.

Before I had a formal exchange of fire with the enemy, the positions used to save my life on the battlefield were blown up by the enemy with shells and bombs.

Fortunately, he also saw the battle he experienced just now, and he was prepared in his heart.

After being dazed for a while, he immediately ordered: "Get into the position quickly, the machine gunner is ready to counterattack, let me stare at the devil with the grenades and shoot the heavy machine gun, and the others will immediately resume their positions. Everyone must have a bunker to hide in!"

The instructor then added: "Pay attention to the little devil's shells, it's not a joke. If you feel the shells flying towards you, lie down and hide for me. Most of the casualties in a company are caused by the devil's shells. You must suffer once. I can't suffer a second time!"

The Japanese army learned a lot of experience and lessons from an attack, and the independent regiment also learned a lot from the battle just now, and at the same time, they also figured out the devil's three-axed attack method.

Because of their experience, the Second Company suffered very few casualties before counterattacking.

But as the Japanese and puppet troops reached 150 meters in front of the formation step by step, the situation changed suddenly.

"Machine gunner, start to counterattack!" Li Binshan, who calculated the distance between the enemy and himself, decisively issued an order to counterattack.

The eight machine guns of the main company and the recruit company fired immediately, and soon created an airtight bullet net in front of the Japanese and puppet troops.

But because the puppet army stood in front of the devils, most of the people who fell to the ground in the first round of shooting were the Imperial Association Army.

And because the combat quality of the Imperial Association Army was not as good as that of the Japanese Army, nearly a platoon was killed and wounded in one fell swoop.

"Yo Xi, the Eighth Route Army finally launched a counterattack! The grenadier immediately counterattacked and knocked out these firepower points. The machine gun suppressed, and the covering troops continued to attack." Because the Imperial Association Army blocked bullets for him in front, the squadron leader of the Japanese army not only did not worry. And angry, but happy that the Eighth Route Army began to fight back, exposing its own firepower.

"Boom boom boom..." In less than five seconds, a series of explosions sounded in the second company.

A machine gun group that was not transferred in time was blown up.

Fortunately for Li Binshan, the moment the grenade exploded, the two machine gunners held the machine guns tightly in their arms, knowing that they would definitely be killed, to ensure that the machine guns were not damaged!
"Two machine gunners go up, the machine guns can't stop firing, and the bullets try to hit the devils!" Li Binshan ordered decisively while heartbroken.
