under fire

Chapter 426

The attacking line of the devils who followed the pursuit, because there were no more eight-way blocking on the two wings, the attack speed was accelerated, and they gradually moved forward, gradually forming a semi-encircled situation.

The Eighth Route Vanguard Cavalry Unit is approaching the bridge where devils are waiting.

Either attack the stone bridge before dark, or go south or north after dark, bypassing the stone bridge to find a place to cross the river directly under the cover of night.

During the normal summer flood season, the Wei River originating from the Taihang Mountains and flowing through the plain has a large amount of water. As part of the South Canal, it is impossible to wade directly across the river.

Fortunately, since there has been almost no rain throughout the summer, after the water flowing out of the mountain entered the plain, a large number of refugees gathered near the foot of the mountain.

When the river reaches Huaxian County in the middle reaches of the Wei River, the water level is even shallower, and silt and sand are exposed at the bottom of the river bed. It is very difficult to wade directly across the river because of injuries.

The stone bridge downstream is located in Xun County, about [-] to [-] miles away. It was not easy to build a bridge on the plain. There used to be wooden pile bridges and ferries, but they were bombed or abandoned due to the war.

The military division has been fighting guerrillas on the plains for a long time, and the first large-scale assembly was faced with the situation of interception before and chase after.

Although the ministries knew the topography of the plain well, since the beginning of spring, it hadn't rained, the hydrology had become very serious, and it was time for the devils to clean up in spring and summer. The ministries were busy running around, so they didn't have detailed information on the plain.

Even the reports from the working team are mostly simple text reports, but they cannot describe the specific hydrological topography of the site.

This time, the military sub-district led almost available troops near Qi County, carried shotguns and machetes, tightened their belts and prepared to replenish a batch of old sleeves for the friendly army, and invited the nearby independent regiment.

He was slapped in the face by the legendary independent regiment who was so poor that they couldn't even wear pants.

The legendary independent group of poor relatives showed off as soon as they arrived, without ambiguity at all. The four-company poor relatives directly came to three companies first, and three companies in one company made [-] rifles, and the box guns were all equipped. Row!
Lift a heavy machine gun, carry a crooked handle, hold a Czech style, and carry a grenade
Especially the second company, which has eight platoons, all of which have been strengthened!Carrying a grenade, machine guns to the platoon, two of the platoons are full of [-] caps!

Bright blinded the red eyes of the commanders of the various divisions of the guerrilla division on the plain.

For the task of attacking the county seat, although the railway was destroyed, the devils with insufficient troops set up an ambush, and the head of the special agent of the division is now unconscious on a stretcher.

After being chased away by the devils for most of the day, the only cavalry regiment in the military sub-district that could be used, and the Ninth Company that made the independent regiment finally arrive, dug out an armored vehicle from nowhere, and completely stole the limelight.

Because of the destruction of railways and Daqi County in response to the request of the First War Zone, the division specially added a batch of frontier-made bullets and grenades for the division.

In addition to the addition of a few companies and a few companies, the independent regiment didn't care about the second company and the ninth company at all, and sent ten cavalry spears to the cavalry regiment.

Originally supplemented with ammunition, the soldiers who felt that they were rich and wealthy and used to being poor were shocked by the heavy firepower of two nine-company mortars and seven or eight small cannons in actual combat.

I even wondered, this damn is the shady three-shot hiding in the mountains?
I'm afraid this is the makeup of the division's secret service battalion?
It is said that a company of the puppet army was wiped out in one battle, seventy to eighty devils were killed, and the jealous, iron bastard in front was captured, and the little bastard who pushed away
No one is jealous of Jiulian, because they are poor relatives. Now, this poor relative is even better than the legendary headquarters secret service corps. No, the division special agent platoon is mixed with Jiulian. What should this explain?
Under the command and operation of the independent regiment, the military sub-district, which was full of wounded soldiers, managed to deceive the Devils aviation soldiers, and paid the price to destroy the Devils Battlefield Radio Station.

Two sets of military uniforms for everyone, with almost no patches!
That ninth company commander is a talent!

The various ministries of the division finally saw the coquettishness of the independent regiment.

For a while, the various district teams scrambled to establish relations with the various ministries of the Independent Regiment, and they became familiar with each other.
The commander muttered a few words to the political commissar of the staff, and secretly made up his mind that after this battle was over, the sub-region must also set up an independent, independent battalion!I still have four companies, and even one, two, three and nine companies, as for four, five, six, seven and eight companies?
Let's see how the independent group does it first. Horses have no night grass and no fat, and people have no external wealth and riches. The independent group must have made a windfall.

Supplemented with dry food, drank a few sips of water, and continued to sweat. A company of the cavalry regiment of the vanguard finally arrived at the stone bridge of Weihe River first, panting like a cow.

I usually fight guerrillas, and this is the first time I have fought a large-scale positional warfare. The divisional blocking forces added up and lost more than half of them!
The team rushed out of the devil's encirclement, although the defeat was glorious.

The previous experience is that when the enemy advances, we retreat, and when the enemy retreats, we harass. When facing the devil's line of defense again, the cavalry are not even nervous anymore. They can even break through the devil's heavy defense line. .

Through the binoculars, I can see clearly: just a group of devils, puppet troops, detective teams, and even the police are motley crews.Don't pay attention to the enemy at all!
In the previous battles, most of them were sneak attacks and ambushes. The premise was to reconnaissance: the number of enemies, firepower, possible reinforcements of nearby devils, and retreat routes!

There are too many factors to consider whether the battle will cause harm to the common people. There is no annihilation war at all, and the war is always small-scale harassment and guerrilla warfare.

In the past few years, I have been chased and mopped up by devils almost uninterruptedly, and every time they are blocked, people have to be transferred.

This time, there is no need to think about anything. With the armored vehicles of the Independent Regiment, the battle is more confident, and there is no need to rely on people and horses to charge with the body. Because of this, an inexplicable excitement arises in my heart.

I just want to look good in front of this "poor relative" and the teacher's secret agents!
Hu Yi rode a bicycle and followed behind the car. The car contained wounded people who were not even suitable for carrying.

Along the way, they were disfigured by the dust and mist raised by armored vehicles. No one would be able to recognize who was who unless they looked at their appearance.

In the dusty ground, most of the new patches are piled on top of the old ones. You can see the uncolored gray military uniform, and move forward wearily.

Hu Yi pulled the kettle with one hand, opened his mouth wide, bit the lid and poured water into his mouth. He almost turned the kettle upside down until it was finally empty.

The last attack before dark is about to begin, and the troops that have been blocking from behind continue to spread news to the front.

Two miles away from the stone bridge, the Eighth Route Army finally rested on the spot. The heads of the divisions had a meeting not far away, perhaps to discuss how to attack the stone bridge. Looking at them, they looked worried.

Now, the last checkpoint is stuck in front of us. If we charge directly, it will not be a big problem to take down the stone bridge. The only worry is whether the devils will plant explosives on the bridge. Crossing the river from the mud, in that case, there will be a lot of variables.

In order to confuse the enemy, Commander Zeng led other cavalry units to move to both sides of the stone bridge, making the devils think that the Eighth Route is not the only option to cross the river through the stone bridge.

To achieve the purpose of preventing the devils from blowing up the bridge, after all, it is not easy to build a large stone bridge on the Wei River. The stones are all transported by boat from the canal for one or two hundred miles, and the devils have to rely on this bridge for transportation .

There was only the cavalry company on the front of the Eighth Route, and the armored vehicles did not move forward. The Li Xiang platoon of the Ninth Company was left with people who could use grenades. The small artillery unit of the military division is ready to suppress firepower.

As long as a company can forcefully cross the river from a distance, it can outflank the devil troops guarding the bridge at any time.

Frontal attack, outflanking, the simplest style of play, anyone can do it!
"Zhengxi, Tuba Road is gathering, and the two wings are detouring. It seems that Tuba Road is looking for a place to cross the river and outflank it!" The ghost observer reported to the second lieutenant who stayed behind.

"Why hasn't the security team come out yet?" the second lieutenant asked casually.

"I have already urged you just now. They are gathering. It may take time to get from the four city gates to the west gate!" Looking at the bridge, the puppet company commander was sweating profusely, and hurriedly reported.

"All the explosives under the bridge are buried?"

"It's all set up, and it can be detonated at any time!" A sergeant with the appearance of an engineer next to him immediately chirped.

Second Lieutenant Guizi stopped asking questions and immediately ordered his subordinates to check the status of the guns.

A rifle loaded with bullets was placed on the sandbags that had been arranged earlier.

With a crooked handle and a Czech back, eyes wide open or looking forward to, or looking nervously at the dark crowd on the opposite side
