The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 272
"Damn it! Hunting geese all day long, and being pecked by geese blinded me. Little devils will do this too."

Gao Jiu knew that he was careless, but he didn't expect the devils to come so far to ambush him.

Gao Jiu raised his hand and shot, and killed a devil who was shooting. The special forces opened fire together, and quickly wiped out the attackers.

However, soon another devil fired a shot. This shot missed the person, but hit the shield of the Type [-] infantry artillery, causing a burst of sparks.

It turned out that the little devil was not stupid, and would change places with one shot.However, Gao Jiu was quick-witted, and shot at him immediately, killing the sneak attacking devil as well.

The two groups of devils nearby must have been killed. Gao Jiu began to search around, and soon he found that there were many little devils in the night, the east group and the west group were nearby. In a radius of about one mile, you can see seven or eight waves.The number of devils in each group is not large, about four or five.

Gao Jiu realized the danger and hurriedly ordered the troops to retreat.

It is very easy for the team members to retreat, just get on the horse and run.However, the [-]-type infantry artillery has already been supported, and it will take some time to mount it with a horse.

Gao Jiu ran over directly, pulled the rope on the Type [-] infantry cannon, mistook himself as Thomas, pulled the cannon and ran away.

Seeing that Gao Jiu was in such a hurry, the team members knew that there was danger, so they left quickly.

Gao Jiu's judgment was correct. Less than half a minute after the team members left, the little devil's mortar shells came and landed near where they were just now.

Gao Jiu and the others stopped after running about 500 meters.

In the night, except for Gao Jiu, the other special forces members, Wang Zhankui and others couldn't see the devil, and the devil couldn't see Gao Jiu and the others, and the field became quiet again.

This time Gao Jiu used the binoculars to observe carefully, and found that there were ghosts everywhere within a few kilometers in front of him.The distance between each group of devils is about [-] meters, and there are hundreds of people that can be seen.

Gao Jiu saw three groups of devils walking towards this direction.

Gao Jiu originally wanted to exercise the night combat ability of the special forces members, and divided them into several groups to deal with these attackers.However, there are too few people under him, and every special operations team member is a treasure, and he is reluctant to let them take risks.

He said to Zhang Quan and Wang Zhankui: "You guys stay here. After I kill the devils in front, we will attack their positions."

Gao Jiu took Ning Wu, Li Xiaoshan and Li Shengdong with him, and walked forward.

The devils were very active in fighting, and three combat teams searched in the direction where Gao Jiu and the others were retreating.

Gao Jiu and the others moved forward for more than 100 meters, found a place with better terrain, and laid down in ambush.

Not long after, a four-member team of the Devils approached a distance of 80 meters from Gao Jiu and others.Gao Jiu threw a grenade at the devils and killed three of them at once. The remaining devil panicked and shot blindly, and was shot and killed by Li Xiaoshan.

Li Xiaoshan exposed the target by shooting, and immediately found a concealment to hide.Another combat team of the Japanese army was about 120 meters away from Gao Jiu and others. They saw the flames of Li Xiaoshan's muzzle shooting, and they fought here.Ning Wu and Li Shengdong took the opportunity to shoot and killed two more devils.

After they shot, they did not stay where they were, and ran away from the shooting site immediately.

The devils were well prepared this time. When they saw Ning Wu and Li Shengdong shooting, they not only shot at them, but also hit them with grenades.It's a pity that because Ning Wu and Li Shengdong had already left their original places, the devils were gone again.

Gao Jiu saw the devils shooting. He fired two shots in a row and killed two more devils.

Gao Jiu saw that there were only one person left in the devil's second combat team, and he was lying on the ground. He simply shot him and killed this guy.

At this time, there was only one fighting group left among the devils who had followed them.Gao Jiu quietly approached them and threw a grenade over. After the grenade exploded, there were only two devils left.Unable to see their attackers, the two fellows, frightened by such a horrific fight, fled in the direction they had come.

Gao Jiu could see very clearly that one of them was probably injured, and his movements seemed very clumsy, while the other ran faster.Gao Jiu was the first to kill the devil who was running ahead with one shot.The remaining devil was so frightened that he lay on the ground, not daring to move.

It's a pity that even so, he couldn't dodge Gao Jiu's bullet.Gao Jiu fired a single shot, but because it was in the darkness, this shot still missed the devil's vitals.The devil moved a few times, and then fired in Gao Jiu's direction.

When Li Shengdong saw the devil shoot back, he shot him, and now the devil was completely dead.

After annihilating the three following devil combat teams, Gao Jiu and the others continued to move forward.The several people cooperated with each other and wiped out the devil's battle groups one by one.

It took Gao Jiu and others a full two hours to destroy more than 20 combat groups of the Japanese army and annihilate more than [-] Japanese soldiers.In a radius of about one kilometer, it finally became quiet.

Zhang Quan, Wang Zhankui and others stayed in place and waited until Li Xiaoshan ran back to convey Gao Jiu's order, and the troops approached the enemy's position again.

At two o'clock in the morning, the Japanese attack on the 187th Division began.

In order to ensure the success of this attack, the brigade commander Oboff specially transferred the main force of the 115th regiment, the Yamada Brigade, to the east gate of the county seat, leaving only the remnants of the Kondo Brigade to conduct a feint at the north gate.

At this time, a total of 1740 Japanese troops were assembled at the north gate of the county seat. This was all the main force that the brigade commander Oboff could use.To replenish their ammunition, Obauf depleted most of the engineer and artillery regiments.

The head of the brigade, Obauf, pinned the success or failure of this battle on this night attack.

Before the offensive was launched, he personally mobilized the officers above the squadron leader.

He said: "Heroic warriors of the Great Japanese Empire, the supply line of the brigade has been cut off by the enemy. If the enemy's position cannot be captured tonight and the enemies in front are eliminated, the brigade will soon fall into an extremely dangerous situation.

This battle is very important, it is related to the honor of the entire brigade, and it is related to the honor of the Japanese Imperial Army.For His Majesty the Emperor, I hope you will fight bravely and resolutely destroy the enemy.please! "

Since they had been notified in advance, the devil's officers did not cheer loudly, but under Obov's instigation, they still shouted in a low voice: "His Majesty the Emperor is on board, and the Imperial Japanese Army is on board."

Seeing that the morale of the officers was high, Obauf ordered the offensive to begin.

The devils did not prepare for artillery fire in advance this time, because they wanted to launch a sneak attack.

Facing the east gate of Zhiyuan County, the 150th Regiment of the Japanese Army was on the left and the 115th Regiment was on the right. Each deployed a squadron of troops and set off ahead of schedule.

This time, they planned to crawl forward at a distance of about 100 meters from the enemy, hoping to catch the 187th Division of the National Army by surprise.

The devils crawled and crawled, and when they were about 50 meters away from the enemy's position, the soldiers of the national army did not notice the devil's movement, and the position was very quiet.

The devils continued to climb and climb!When they reached a place 40 meters away from the national army's position, they stopped at the same time.

They could clearly see the glass shards all over the ground in front of them, shining coldly in the moonlight.

The squadron leader of a devil saw that the devil in front had not moved, he was very angry and crawled over himself.Seeing the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but gasped.

It was already summer at this time, and the devils were wearing thin summer clothes. It was a toothache to think about crawling over the glass shards all over the floor.

In order to prevent the national army soldiers from seeing the reflection, the devils did not have bayonets on their rifles.The leader of the devil squadron took a rifle from the hand of the soldier next to him, and tried to fiddle with the glass shards with the barrel.

There are too many glass shards, and most of them are thrown from a distance. Under the action of gravity, many of them are inserted into the soil, and it is difficult to shake them without exerting force.

The glass stubbles are of different sizes. If you use force, they will collide with each other and there will be a rattling sound.The rifle is not a broom for sweeping the floor, so it is very inconvenient to fiddle with it.It is really difficult to remove the glass shards on the ground.

Obauf had been waiting for the Japanese army in front to launch an attack. He was very annoyed when he saw that there was no movement in front of him, so he sent a messenger to inquire about the situation.At this time, the front troops sent someone to report to him the embarrassing situation encountered by the vanguard.

Obaufu was so angry that Wang Jindong's bad move kept cursing, but there was nothing he could do.He could only wait patiently for the troops in front to clear the obstacles and raid the enemy's position.

The devils deliberately chose to attack at two o'clock in the morning, thinking that the officers and soldiers of the national army would be very relaxed at this time.Wang Jindong's troops change shifts every two hours, and everyone's spirits are high at any time.They have been observing the movement on the forward position. Not long after, some soldiers noticed a figure moving in front and reported to the officer.

The company commander who shot at the prisoners last time is now the deputy battalion commander.After receiving the report, he looked forward hard, but couldn't see clearly in the night.So he asked the soldiers to take out the torches they had already prepared.These torches were wrapped with cloth strips on the wood, then stretched into the gasoline barrels to stick gasoline, lit them and threw them towards the forward position.

As the torches continued to fall on the front of the position, the whereabouts of the devils were exposed.When the company commander gave an order, the officers and soldiers in the trench opened fire violently at the devils.

The devils also made a plan before attacking. If they were discovered by the enemy, they would attack immediately.

Seeing that the attempt had been brought to light, the devil's squadron leader immediately ordered the soldiers to charge forward.Because of the glass shards in front of them, they could no longer crawl close to the enemy's position by crawling forward, so they straightened up and charged forward quickly.Unfortunately, the distance of 50 meters is a bit too far.At this distance, even if one shot is fired and the bolt is pulled once, it is enough for the soldiers of the national army to fire three shots, not to mention that there are so many machine guns.There were torches everywhere on the ground, and the figures of the devils were easy to recognize. The soldiers of the national army fired bullets at the charging devils very effectively!

The devils suffered heavy casualties, but they still rushed forward.

Lieutenant Commander Shigesho Yamamoto, the captain of the 150th Infantry Regiment who was in charge of commanding the attack, saw that the attack had already started, and commanded the troops behind to launch a fierce attack.

The devil's mortars did not prepare artillery fire in advance this time. They were afraid of accidentally injuring their own people, so they dared not directly bombard the first trench of the national army with artillery fire.They extended their artillery fire to the rear of the national army's position, hoping to prevent the national army's reinforcements from advancing forward.

Wang Jindong had also been prepared for a long time, and their artillery fire also hit the 80-200-meter section of the front of the position, forming a fire blockade here.

Since the Japanese army in front had already launched an attack, the brigade behind the devil could only charge desperately under the enemy's artillery fire.

The devil's mortar shells only hit within the range of the national army's position, but most of the national army soldiers were in trenches or traffic trenches, and suffered very little damage.

The devil's brigade was completely exposed to the enemy's artillery fire, and suffered extremely heavy casualties.

One advantage of the night battle is that the attacking devils are constantly falling, but those who are alive can't see clearly, and the panic caused to them is relatively small.Those living devils ran forward desperately, getting closer and closer to the enemy's position.

Since it was night, it was dark.Visibility was poor, despite some torchlight.The desperate charge of the devils finally had a certain effect.Many devils rushed to the vicinity of the trench and threw grenades forward.Many soldiers of the national army in the trenches lost their lives in the explosion of the grenade.

The Japanese army finally rushed into the first trench, and the two sides fought desperately in the trench.

Wang Jindong received a report of the Japanese army's night attack, and he didn't know how many devils had come.Use all the troops that can be mobilized to block the enemy's attack.

After about half an hour of fierce fighting, the Japanese army finally captured the first line of defense of the 187th Division.They did not stop, and continued to attack the second line of defense of the 187th Division.

When Wang Jindong heard that the first line of defense was lost, he was also impatient.He not only suppressed the remaining reserve team of one battalion of the 792 regiment, but also personally led the supervisor team to the second line of defense.He issued a death order: If anyone takes another step back, shoot and kill!

After the Japanese army captured the first line of defense of the national army, they continued to attack desperately.The officers and soldiers of the national army resisted desperately, and the two sides fought desperately on the ground and in the traffic trenches, causing heavy casualties.

Shigeo Yamamoto, the captain of the 150th Wing, commanded the troops to charge forward bravely, hitting and hitting, and he found that there were too many enemies in front of him.He desperately needed strong troops to step up the offensive, but unfortunately, he found that he had no soldiers to send.From the beginning of the attack, there were only more than 800 people in his hands.After winning the first position, there were less than 500 people left in their hands. After this period of fierce fighting, there were only less than 300 people left in their hands.

He had no soldiers to send, but there were 2000 enemy troops in front of him.Not only could the Japanese army fail to advance, but they were pushed back by the enemy.

After Chiba Kotaro was injured, Captain Yamada, who was in charge of commanding the 115th Regiment, faced the same situation.At this moment, there are less than 400 soldiers left in his hands.The national army has a large number of troops and strong firepower. He has been unable to launch an attack and has begun to retreat to the first line of defense.

The Japanese tried to hold on to the first line of defense, waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

Oboff was in a good mood when he heard that the enemy's first line of defense had been captured. He hoped that the national army would lose confidence in fighting and collapse.It is a pity that he has not waited for such good news. Instead, he waited for the report from the frontline commander asking him for help.

Obaugh couldn't laugh or cry, where did he have reinforcements in his hand?The only ones he can use at this time are engineers, artillery and supply troops, and they are not the main force of these troops, but the veterans of the organs and logistics.The main forces of these troops have now been divided into combat groups and distributed around the positions. How can they be gathered in a hurry?

Obauf was in a bad mood. He hated Wang Jindong, a rascal. No matter what method he used, this guy would never leave his position, and would hide in the trenches to fight him.He also hated Gao Jiu, a nasty guy, because of his harassment, he couldn't concentrate his forces to fight Wang Jindong.He also hated that he was not the commander of the division. If he had the strength of a division, he would have wiped out Wang Jindong long ago.

He hated everything, he hated everything, and suddenly he hated Hamada Yoshihito, and now he regrets it very much, why did he listen to the bewitching of the guys from the super high school, and come so far to engage in long-distance raids, and now what? Make yourself so embarrassed.

At this time, Chiba Kotaro was carried over.When Obaugh saw this fellow, he was furious.He really wanted to accuse Chiba Kotaro of some bad idea and set up a combat team, which left him with no soldiers to use.However, he knew that adopting this method was a helpless move, and he also agreed to it.

But he was still very upset, and reprimanded: "Mr. Qianye, you are injured so badly, don't run around."

Chiba Kotaro is now particularly good at thinking. He lay on the hospital bed and thought about it for a long time, only to realize that Shigesei Yamamoto's idea was correct.Now seeing that it is no longer possible to maintain the offensive against the 187th Division, he also believes that the 187th Division should withdraw from the battle overnight tonight while the 128th Brigade has not yet grasped the reality.Otherwise, once the 187th Division counterattacks, the 128th Brigade may really be defeated by the enemy, or even in danger of being annihilated.

He bit the bullet and said: "Thank you, Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, for your concern. I have a suggestion, and I think that what Shigeo Yamamoto said makes sense. Under the current circumstances, the 128th Brigade should end the battle quickly and carry out the transfer. .”

At this time, Obauf had lost confidence in annihilating the 187th Division, and he also began to think about the way out. He was thinking about how to withdraw from the battle.

At this time, the commander of the 150th Infantry Regiment, Shigesho Yamamoto, returned.Obauf saw that there were less than 200 defeated soldiers behind him, and he knew that the battle had failed.

Shigeo Yamamoto said anxiously: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, you can't continue fighting. I implore Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, to lead the brigade in quickly."

Gao Jiu and the others pulled the cannon and moved towards the enemy's position.Seeing the lively fight at Wang Jindong's place, they had to help out anyway.

Soon after, Gao Jiu and others came to a distance of about one kilometer from the enemy's position and set up their cannons.After careful observation, Gao Jiu found the west side of the Japanese camp, and there were many figures swaying there.He asked Du Shengxi to adjust the artillery, and fired six rounds in one go towards the crowded place.

At this moment, after hearing the suggestions of Shigesho Yamamoto and Kotaro Chiba, Obov already agreed with their opinions in his heart.

However, he couldn't act too flustered, he still had to pretend.He pondered for a moment, and it seemed that he made up his mind reluctantly under the urging of the two captains.He said: "Since you all suggest this, I decide to accept..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt a flash of fire in front of his eyes, and then heard a violent explosion.He felt a sharp pain in his stomach and passed out.

Seeing that the enemy's attack was finally repelled, Wang Jindong heaved a sigh of relief.At this time, he didn't know that the battle situation had completely reversed, and his mind was still on how to repel the enemy's next attack.

At this time, Gao Jiu sent a telegram.
