The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 879 The result is the same
The defense range of Peach Blossom Village is very limited, only the surrounding hills.If the Japanese army captured the top of the mountain, the entire Taohua Village would be exposed to the Japanese army's shooting range, and all facilities in the mountain would be severely damaged by the Japanese army.

The guerrillas had no way out and could only brave the enemy's artillery fire to fight fiercely with the Japanese army.

The defensive position of the defenders on the hill was fixed, and when they fired, the muzzle flashes gave away their position.

The artillerymen of the Japanese army hiding in the dark could easily hit the defensive positions of the defenders, causing huge casualties to the defenders.

The artillery of the Taohuashan guerrillas fired blindly down the mountain. Although they caused a large number of casualties to the Japanese army, they did not cause serious damage to the Japanese 240mm heavy mortars. The defenders posed a great threat.

When Geng Hua saw this, he didn't know what to do for a while.The position must be defended, otherwise, the Taohuashan guerrillas, the militiamen who participated in the war, and the officers and soldiers of the Guo army had nowhere to retreat, so they had to retreat into the Taohua Cave.The airport at the foot of the mountain, as well as all the buildings, are all the painstaking efforts of the Taohuashan guerrillas for so many years, and they will all be destroyed.

Zhang Quan ordered the air force to dispatch urgently and dropped heavy bombs down the mountain, making sure to destroy the Japanese artillery.

The commanders of the air force felt very embarrassed. It was difficult for them to find the target at night, and the Japanese army was too close to the defenders on the mountain, so it was difficult to ensure that the bombs would not accidentally injure their own people.

Zhang Quan has learned a lot from Gao Jiu over the years, the most important thing is being good at using his brain, he immediately thought of a solution.

He ordered the air force to dispatch urgently, and delineated an area according to the firing range of the Japanese heavy mortars for the air force to bomb.

He told the air force commander what he thought of and ordered them to dispatch immediately to bomb the Japanese army.

The planes of the Taohuashan guerrillas took off quickly, and they circled in the air, carefully distinguishing the positions of the Taohuashan guerrillas and the Japanese army.

The way Zhang Quan came up with was to let the searchlights on the mountain shine in mid-air, forming a complete aperture, and the outside of the aperture was the area where the Japanese army was located.The searchlights were very bright, and they no longer strafed around, but fixedly pointed in one direction, so that the guerrilla pilots and bombers could clearly see the boundary between the Taohuashan guerrillas and the Japanese army.

Not only that, Zhang Quan also thought of a way to mark the location of the Japanese army.

The officers and soldiers of the Japanese army desperately attacked the mountain. Those in front were killed in battle, and those behind continued to climb up.

Suddenly a lot of dark things rolled down from the top of the mountain, and when they realized it, those things exploded suddenly, and the whole hillside was instantly covered in flames.

It turned out that what rolled down from the mountain was a gasoline barrel full of gasoline. Time bombs were fixed on the gasoline barrel, and different explosion times were set.

Soon, gasoline barrels exploded in different areas, forming a sea of ​​flames in a large area under the mountain.

Many gasoline barrels jumped in the air during the fall. After the explosion, burning gasoline splashed everywhere. Many Japanese officers and soldiers were covered with burning gasoline. They writhed in the flames, and the scene was very miserable.

The flames produced by the explosion of a large number of gasoline barrels made the position of the Japanese army more clearly visible.

In order to be able to bomb the Japanese army accurately, the pilots risked hitting the mountain, flew as low as possible, and passed at a low altitude of only 300 meters from the top of the mountain.

At this time, they could clearly see the Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain, and they could even see those Japanese soldiers struggling in the flames with their bodies stained with burning gasoline.Immediately they dropped bombs below.

According to Zhang Quan's request, the bomber was loaded with a large number of 623kg giant bombs, and the bombs were thrown at a high density. The Japanese army within a radius of tens of meters of a bomb will be completely wiped out, and of course the Japanese artillery will not be spared.

After hundreds of giant bombs were dropped, not only caused a large number of ordinary Japanese infantry casualties, but also many Japanese artillery, including those 240mm heavy mortars, were also destroyed.The Japanese artillery fire suddenly weakened a lot.Soon after, the Japanese attack was repulsed again.

Gao Jiu was riding towards Taoyuan Town, when he suddenly saw a large group of figures in front of him, in groups of about ten people, it was obvious that this was a camp of the Japanese army. A bunch of people should be living in tents.

Gao Jiu didn't want to get entangled with these devils, so he took a detour and continued to Taoyuan Town.

However, he walked about 5 kilometers and saw another Japanese camp ahead.

There were too many devils this time, Gao Jiu didn't know where there was no devil's camp, so if he continued to detour, he might encounter such a situation again.He got a little impatient and decided to call directly.

Gao Jiu got off his horse and tied the two horses to a poplar tree by the roadside.He was carrying a backpack, two backpacks from the horse in his hand, and a sniper rifle in his hand, and walked towards the Japanese camp.

Gao Jiu saw a Japanese army camp, with about 100 tents and more than [-] people, at least a brigade of Japanese soldiers.

After careful inspection, he found that there were still many vehicles parked in the middle of the camp, which should be the Japanese army's supply troops and some escort troops.

Gao Jiu decided to take them first, so he walked over.

Gao Jiu came to a distance of more than 60 meters from the Japanese camp, checked the surrounding terrain, and checked the cover that could be used in advance, then took off the backpacks on his body, and put the three backpacks behind a stone next to him .

He took out a grenade, pulled the safety pin, knocked it on the stone beside him, counted three times, and then threw it towards the nearest tent.

Suddenly, a ball of fire exploded in the darkness, followed by a loud bang.

With the help of the flash of the grenade explosion, Gao Jiu could clearly see that the tent was directly destroyed by the grenade.

Without waiting for the Japanese army to react, Gao Jiu threw grenades at several other Japanese tents.

The grenade was still close to the tents of the Japanese army and exploded in the air, completely destroying those tents.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack." The Japanese camp was in chaos, and many people shouted in horror.

The devil soldiers didn't know where the enemy attack came from, and they shot blindly outside the camp.

The muzzle flashes exposed the positions of the Japanese soldiers, and Gao Jiu continued to throw grenades towards the place where the muzzle flashes were dense.

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom." The grenade exploded in the enemy group continuously, causing the devils to cry and howl, killing and wounding a lot.

The devils were completely stunned. They didn't know where the grenade came from, and they ran around one by one to avoid this terrible blow.

Gao Jiu threw more than 20 grenades in one breath. He knew that although the Japanese army could not see him, he could at least guess his approximate location based on the location where the grenade exploded.

So he quickly withdrew, left the place where he had just attacked the Japanese army more than 200 meters away, quietly approached the Japanese army's camp again, and launched an attack on the Japanese army.

The Japanese army was completely stunned. They didn't know how many enemies there were outside. Since they couldn't see the enemy, the Japanese army didn't dare to attack rashly. Under the command of the commander, they shot blindly from the edge of their camp.

Gao Jiu kept changing positions and threw grenades at the Japanese army, causing heavy losses to the Japanese army.

The commander of the Japanese army could not see the enemy, and was terrified by this strange sight.

Taking advantage of Gao Jiu's shifting position and there was no time to launch an attack, he ordered someone to count the number of people.

From the first attack to the present, only half an hour has passed, and the number of casualties of Japanese officers and soldiers has reached more than [-].Such casualties made the commander of the Japanese army feel very broken.

He was thinking of countermeasures when suddenly another violent explosion sounded from one side of the camp.

The commander of the Japanese army knew that if they stayed here any longer, they would all die.

So he urgently issued an order to retreat, and led the defeated soldiers to flee in the direction of Taoyuan Town.

The devils ran away, and Gao Jiu carried his backpack and walked forward while searching carefully.

He made sure that the devils had escaped, and then he returned to the place where the horse was tied, got on the horse and continued to Taoyuan Town.

About 40 minutes later, a dark building appeared in front of me, which was Taoyuan Town.

Gao Jiu ran fast on horseback. When he came to Taoyuan Town, he saw the rout of the Japanese army who had fled just now, all of them got into the town.

Gao Jiu secretly thought it was funny, these devils just got out of the tiger's mouth, and went straight into the ghost's gate again.

He quietly found a distance of about 80 meters from Taoyuan Town, found a higher field ridge and lay down on his stomach.

He took out the remote control from his backpack and pressed the button in the direction of Taoyuan Town.

Peach Blossom Mountain.

The Japanese attack was repulsed again, this time losing more than 2000 troops.

Shigeru Fujita became impatient, and ordered the Japanese army to reorganize its forces and launch another attack.

After all, Shigeru Fujita is a general with rich combat experience. In the last offensive operation, although the Japanese army was repelled, but through his understanding of the battlefield situation, he knew that the 240mm heavy mortar in his hand could play a great role.

He decided to make a single throw and gather all the 240mm heavy mortars to break through from one direction.

According to Fujita Shigeru's order, the Japanese army concentrated more than 240 artillery pieces, including 200mm heavy mortars, under a hillside in the north, with a complete infantry wing as an assault force, and then ordered all Japanese troops in all directions of the encirclement, At the same time launched an attack on the mountain.

The guerrillas, militiamen, and soldiers of the Guojun guarding the mountain saw the Japanese army rushing up again, and they fired fiercely at the Japanese army again.

The commander guarding the mountain to the north was Geng Hua. He commanded more than 200 guerrillas from Taohuashan, more than 100 militiamen, and more than 300 officers and soldiers of the Guojun Army, guarding the position on the mountain.

Seeing the Japanese army rushing up, they began to fight fiercely with the Japanese army.

The devil soldiers kept rushing up and being beaten down again and again. The battle lasted for an hour.

The ghost soldiers have learned their skills this time, and the number of people coming up each time is not large. The defenders on the mountain can't see how many enemies there are, and they have to be more vigilant, which makes them feel a little tired.

Suddenly, the enemy's artillery fire became extremely violent, and swarms of shells flew towards the position on the mountain, among which were mixed with many 240mm heavy mortar shells, and the flames exploded on the top of the mountain continuously.

The Taohuashan guerrillas used the terrain to build many solid fortifications, and many firepower points were built in the crevices of the cliffs, so it was difficult for the enemy's artillery to hit directly.Therefore, the casualties of the guerrillas who guarded the fortifications were much smaller.

But there are not so many fortifications on the mountain. Those militiamen and Guojun officers and soldiers exposed on the top of the mountain suffered heavy casualties under the heavy artillery fire. They really couldn't bear such a blow and began to collapse. Many people gave up their positions. Run down the mountain.

At this moment, thousands of Japanese soldiers suddenly appeared in front of them. This was the infantry regiment of that devil.Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, they had quietly reached a distance of only 150 meters from the defensive position on the mountain. Taking advantage of the weakened firepower of the defenders on the mountain, they launched an attack on the mountain at the same time.

At this time, there were only a hundred special forces guarding the mountain. There were too many devils, and they couldn't fight them at all.

Soon after, many ghost soldiers rushed to the distance of only tens of meters from the top of the mountain. They began to throw grenades on the mountain, and then continued to charge forward.

Geng Hua knew that he couldn't hold on anymore, if he continued to stay on Beishan, he would only die.So he took the rest of the guerrillas and withdrew down the mountain.

The Japanese army finally captured the defensive position to the north of the Taohuashan guerrillas. A large number of Japanese officers and soldiers crossed the top of the mountain and continued to attack the hinterland of the Taohuashan cottage.

After Zhang Quan received Geng Hua's report, his heart sank.You know, the airfield of the Taohuashan guerrillas is very close to the north.After turning over a small hill, the devils can directly destroy the airport.

He hastily ordered Geng Hua to take the remnants of the defeated army to strengthen the defense on the hill north of the airport, so as to prevent the Japanese army from destroying the airport.At the same time, he also deployed 200 guerrillas to support Geng Hua and defend the airport.

Fujita Shigeru was overjoyed when he received the report of breaking the northern mountain of Taohua Mountain, and immediately ordered the Japanese army to invest more troops and continue to attack forward.

Geng Hua led the remnants of the defeated army to the hill north of the airport. Because the Taohuashan guerrillas were too confident, they only built a large number of fortifications on the outer hilltops. There were no fortifications on this hill. They can only rely on the rocks on the mountain for defense.
