Chapter 0211 Xie Jiaqiao fought fiercely!
The 48th Army Special Service Battalion of the Xiejiaqiao Guard is worthy of being an iron army and well-trained unit.
After entering Xiejiaqiao, they arranged a large number of fortifications.
Along the east side of Xiejia Bridge, there are civil and industrial fortifications. The private houses in Xiejia Bridge are opened to form an intersection fire point.
Although the Japanese artillery fire destroyed some fortifications, the Japanese army wanted to razed the entire Xiejiaqiao to the ground with the help of artillery fire, and it would be absolutely impossible to do without a few tons of shells.
Yamada Oshinobu ordered the troops to venture into Xiejiaqiao, but they encountered a stubborn obstacle from the defenders on the periphery of the position they thought had been destroyed.
The Japanese officer who was ordered was also a naughty man. Perhaps he also believed that the enemy had been almost wiped out by the imperial shells. So when he encountered a blockade, he actually ordered all the Japanese to charge.
The defenders fired all kinds of light and heavy machine guns at the same time, and dozens of Japanese soldiers looked like fools, and met their great Amaterasu.
The Japanese commander reported it and hurriedly ordered the soldiers to retreat, but dozens of people died.
Yamada Hatsuki directly cut off the commander of the vanguard unit, and then ordered the first and second brigades to encircle Xiejiaqiao along the left and right.
Yamada Hatsuji had absolute confidence in this battle, whether it was information from air reconnaissance or what he saw with his own eyes. There were not many Chinese defenders in Xiejiaqiao.
He attacked Xiejiaqiao from three directions with his three brigades of troops. He could not use noon to razed Xiejiaqiao to the ground.
But when this old Japanese was feeling complacent, he didn't expect that Dragon Boat Festival had already brought people to him.
All the Japanese's outer guard posts were touched by Zhou Dabang and Sun Shiyu quietly.
Dragon Boat Festival quietly advanced the troops to a position two kilometers away from the Japanese artillery positions.
At 500 to 800 meters away from the enemy artillery positions, two Japanese squadrons are building defensive fortifications.
So from this point of view, the Japanese were indeed well-trained. Without being attacked by the enemy and attacking Xie Jiaqiao with absolute advantage, they were still very cautious in digging trenches and building fortifications.
Dragon Boat Festival called Sun Shiyu over and ordered: "Old Sun, bring me four mortars to the south slope to launch artillery attacks on the Japanese defending the artillery positions, the more fierce the attack, the better."
Sun Shiyu smiled and said, "Roun, why don't you let me take the Japanese artillery position directly."
"Bad, you old guy wants to break a cannon for me. I will treat you as a cannon. Remember for me, the cannons on the top of the mountain are all my own."
The Dragon Boat Festival started to curse directly. At this time, whoever dared to touch his cannon would have to fight his life with him.
But at this time, Sun Shiyu looked at the defensive position halfway up the mountain outside the forest, shook his head and said, "Group, the terrain is very unfavorable to us. Look at the whole mountain, there is no cover at all, how can we rush up?
Why did the Japanese dare to build artillery positions on the top of the mountain? Isn’t it because this is the only commanding height nearby. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack?”
"You don't have to worry about this. You just need to hold the Japanese on the south side for me."
Speaking of this, Dragon Boat Festival said to Xie Jinyuan again: "Old Xie, take it with me..."
At this time, Dragon Boat Festival wanted to say that the independent camp was coming. But thinking about it, there are not many people left in the independent camp now.
Immediately, Dragon Boat Festival looked at Fang Shuping, who escaped with the Independent Group.
Fang Shuping’s overall strength is pretty good, but there are not many people left. There are a total of three companies, and now there are not even two platoons.
Dragon Boat Festival thought for a while and said, "The 40th Division's Preparatory Battalion was temporarily incorporated into the 1st Battalion of the 88th Division's Independent Regiment. The 1st Battalion was adapted from the original Independent Regiment Independent Regiment. The battalion commander was Sun Shiyu. Lao Xie, please command it temporarily, remember it is a feint. I don't want to see casualties.
You can use shells at will and shoot bullets at will. But there is only one thing, our people are treasures, don’t kill them all, these people are the seeds of our independent group.”
"Don't worry, the group."
Xie Jinyuan took the order and took the battalion away with Sun Shiyu.
At this time, the Dragon Boat Festival ordered Zhu Shengzhong to say: "Zhu Shengzhong appointed as the battalion commander of the Second Battalion of the Independent Regiment, and all the former recruit battalions were incorporated into the Second Battalion, including the former 40th Division Preparation Battalion, and were merged into the Second Battalion of the Independent Regiment, and were unified in command by Zhu Shengzhong."
(The battalion commander of the 2nd Preparatory Battalion of the 40th Division has been killed, so no one has any objections to the Dragon Boat Festival order.)
"Tongshan, me, the group seat,..."
At this moment, Zhou Dabang pointed at himself tightly, meaning that he also wanted an official.
Dragon Boat Festival took a look at the brothers in the original second camp. Many of these people were from the fellow villagers who came out of Dragon Boat Festival.
There were more than 80 people at that time. But now, including Zhou Dabang, there are not even eight people. The remaining people are deserters who entered the Sihang Warehouse for the Dragon Boat Festival, and those who he rescued before entering the Sihang Warehouse.
These people combined have less than thirty people.
The Dragon Boat Festival order said: "Appoint Zhou Dabang as the company commander of the regiment's direct spy company. The remaining people and others are all assigned to the spy company."
"Thank you, thank you."
Zhou Dabang nodded tightly and bowed, and the veteran's nature was undoubtedly exposed.
But the secret service camp seemed to be full of veterans. Congratulations on the surface, but there seemed to be only one meaning behind the smile: You are the company commander now, and you must rush to the front in war?
“·················"
Zhou Dabang was speechless and thought to himself: "Group, please get me a few new recruits? Otherwise, I can't stand it."
The Dragon Boat Festival secretly laughed at Zhou Dabang for his own consequences. The tension during the war also disappeared.
But at this time, Dragon Boat Festival could not relax. What he needed was a mighty army, a force that could win battles.
He stood up and roared, "Brothers, we will become famous in this battle today. The 103rd Brigade of the enemy is a unit that has just returned after a defeat. He is the meat that has been sent to our mouths.
By rushing to the top of the mountain and taking off the Japanese artillery positions, we can annihilate the entire enemy brigade.
This is a feat, an unprecedented victory! …”
"well!"
At this time, both the soldiers of the Independent Regiment and the soldiers of the 40th Division all rose.
Although their voices are not loud, they are as powerful as a rainbow.
"Stern brother, just give the order? None of the brothers from the 79th Brigade are cowards."
Sun Bo'an patted his chest and promised. The other officers also agreed: "Third brother, just give orders! Brothers will never embarrass you!"
A group of people quarreled.
But Dragon Boat Festival believed them as a big-headed ghost. These people are now powerful, but once they encounter tenacious blockades from the enemy, they will inevitably retreat.
Once they retreated, the entire battle situation quickly took a sharp turn.
Because the Japanese artillery positions are commanding heights, they are the Japanese living targets if they can't rush up.
Chapter completed!
