Rise from eight hundred.

Heizi was one of the first batch of members of the special squadron, and he was considered the oldest person in the special squadron. He became the squad leader during the previous reorganization from the squadron to the squadron.

No one was unconvinced, no matter in terms of seniority or combat effectiveness, Heizi was one of the top few in the special squadron, not to mention that Tang Dao trusted him very much.

But most of the time, Heizi always has a naive smile on his dark face, which makes people instinctively classify him as a simple crowd. Even in the early morning, he led a group of 8 people to defeat a Japanese army defended by an infantry squad. The headquarters of the brigade perfectly tore the command system of the Japanese army stationed in Licheng to pieces, but in the eyes of most people, the squad leader Heizi just perfectly executed the tactics of the deputy squadron leaders Tang Tuanzuo and Gu Xishui.

However, in the battle of attacking the heavily defended Japanese artillery positions, Heizi used his own wisdom to prove to everyone that the reason why he became the leader of the team did not depend on his qualifications and physical ability beyond ordinary people.

His ruthless order to kill the valuable Japanese horses forced Koki Inoue, the Japanese cavalry captain, to send nearly 50 cavalry to leave the trenches to support the unwinnable battlefield on the cliff.

The lives of 50 Japanese cavalrymen were actually not too important compared to the entire battlefield. Goto Koshinan didn't even bat an eye on the loss of nearly 500 infantrymen, not to mention the dozens of cavalrymen who left their horses.

But the terrible thing is that at this time, in the 700-meter-long trench around the Japanese artillery position, there is only one infantry squad of 63 people and the Japanese cavalry of 44 people, and the total strength does not exceed one infantry company.

This kind of defensive firepower is much sparser than Goto Koshinan expected.

It can be said that mobilizing the 50 troops of the Japanese army weakened the defensive power of the entire Japanese defense line by more than half.

According to post-war statistics, nearly 50 strong oriental horses were shot and killed by bullets, and more than 20 oriental horses were ordered to be killed because the gunshot wounds could not be treated. In the end, less than 40 war horses became trophies, but Heizi was still recorded as With the first-class merit and the second-class merit for conquering the headquarters of the Japanese infantry brigade in Licheng, Heizi became the first strongman of the Four Elements Regiment to win two battles in one battle.

For the Japanese army at this time, what may make them feel fearful is not how much their troops have been emptied, or even the Chinese army that is about to attack, which is as high as two infantry companies, but what the Chinese army has at this time. firepower.

The core of the Japanese defensive position was never the Japanese infantry and cavalry in the trenches, but the protected artillery positions. Four mountain cannons were enough to throw the death scythe hundreds of meters away, harvesting all life.

But the elite army led by Tang Tuanzuo, although considered lightly armed, still has 6 mortars and 18 grenade launchers far exceeding the Japanese army.

After observing the Japanese army's position for nearly an hour, Tang Dao quickly broke through the weakness of the Japanese army's position.

This position is purely foreign strong, they are anti-infantry but not anti-cannon!

Almost all the grenadier soldiers were ordered to arrive in the mountains within 300 meters of the Japanese positions. Their targets were not the Japanese cavalry infantry who had become scarce in the trenches, but the Japanese mountain artillery located in the most central area. position.

That means that for the first wave of strikes against Japanese artillery, there will be six 6mm mortars and 82 miniature mortars similar to 18mm.

If the 4 mountain cannons want to fight back, they must have a chance to survive the first wave of shelling.

All the ideas of the Japanese army's left are perfect, and there is even a dream of using artillery positions as bait to attract the Chinese army to attack, but all this is based on the fact that the Chinese army does not have enough artillery.

If it is replaced by the 683 brigade, which lacks artillery, perhaps his trick may really be successful.

It's a pity that his opponent now is a team that blocked the Japanese 14th Army in Matsue, destroyed the Kunisaki Detachment of the [-]th Division, and destroyed an entire infantry regiment under the [-]th Division, which is completely beyond the understanding of the Japanese Army. The most elite part of the elite infantry regiment.

Forget about a strong opponent, but dared to allocate one-third of the troops to leave the position. If this is not suicide, what is it?
Without this one-third of the troops, the defensive strength of the Japanese defense line was weakened more than they imagined.

After the Chinese infantry began to attack from both sides, the Japanese infantry began to fight back vigorously, but there were very few targets that could be hit, which already showed the consequences of insufficient troops.

A dozen or so machine guns and four heavy machine guns in the middle began to roar, and almost none of the Japanese infantrymen could accurately shoot targets hundreds of meters away in the trenches with their rifles as calmly as before.

The reason why it is said that the Japanese veterans are good at marksmanship is that the Chinese side does not have enough firepower to put too much pressure on them. Now, there are nearly 20 light and heavy machine guns coming up to fight unreasonably together, and it is only a defensive position with no more than a hundred people. , No matter how old a soldier is, his marksmanship is not so good.

Before the infantry began to attack, mortars and grenades had already attacked the central area protected by the Japanese defense line.

2 minutes的急速射，6门迫击炮硬生生干出去90发炮弹，18具掷弹筒投掷出220发榴弹。

The gunpowder smoke and the aroused dust completely covered the artillery position of the Japanese army on the mountain with an area of ​​more than 1000 square meters. No one knew what was going on inside. How did this round of shelling go.

But the facts tell everything. In the 2 minutes after the Chinese artillery fire and the 2 minutes after waiting for the smoke to clear, none of the Japanese mountain artillery fired.

When the gunpowder smoke cleared, in the field of vision of Tang Dao's telescope, there were scattered corpses of Japanese artillerymen everywhere. The four [-]-style mountain cannons that stood majestically in the wilderness were falling down and breaking into pieces.

Whether it is a cannon or a person, they have completely lost their ability to fight back.

Before the Japanese soldiers in the trenches had time to mourn for their compatriots, the figures of the Chinese infantry marching in a half arc appeared.

The artillery was destroyed by the Chinese's unexpected shelling. Why did the Chinese attack the circular position without hesitating casualties?Perhaps this is a strange idea that emerged in the somewhat confused brains of many Japanese infantrymen.

This is very unreasonable!

This is actually quite reasonable.

"Baga! The Chinese are trying to steal our position!" Koki Inoue deserved to be the only army captain commander in the Japanese position, and his reaction was super fast.

What are you doing for the position?It's nothing more than occupying this position and blocking the main force of the infantry who are still in front!

Think about it with your ass, Koki Inoue knows that if the Chinese occupy this position, only two 300 people will be stationed in the 700-meter trench, with this position as the core, and the hills and mountains on both sides will be assisted immediately. Form a terrible regular triangle defense position.

Not to mention that the main force of the infantry in front was already exhausted from attacking the mountains defended by the Chinese. Even with 1500 troops, it was still the full version.

Perhaps, Koki Inoue still overestimated the strength of his colleagues.

If the main force of the Four Elements Regiment really entered this area, let alone 1500 people, even doubling the strength would not be very effective.

The most impactful Japanese army is nothing but two 2 tanks and 89 Type 10 light tanks, but the Four-row Regiment not only has 94 heavy mortars, but also infantry guns and 150mm anti-aircraft guns. Well, if the Japanese army used the two Type 37 tanks with a limited shooting range to lead the charge, it would be really dead, don't be too ugly.

In the state where the Japanese army was unable to dispatch the air force, the Four Elements Regiment at this time was a big bug of the Japanese army. Without an infantry brigade, there was nothing they could do about it.

However, Koshu Inoue's mind was still clear at this time, and he guessed Tang Dao's mind completely.

The purpose of Tang Dao is not only to take away the Japanese army's most threatening mountain artillery to the Chinese army, but also to capture this position, completely secure the gate, and cut off the last way out of the Japanese army.

Koki Inoue did not cast his eyes on the woods where gunshots were already bursting like beans. He knew that this was a Chinese plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain. subordinate.

That was natural. Under the leadership of ten special forces headed by Heizi, the officers and soldiers of the cavalry company of the Four Elements Regiment who had all dismounted to fight participated in the siege and killing of these 50 Japanese cavalry.

It seems to be a fateful duel, Japanese cavalry against Chinese cavalry!
Only this time, there were no horses, and the saber was also thrown away, and all guns were used.

If you have to say it is unfair, the Chinese side participated in the battle with 98 cavalry, using 4 light machine guns, 18 submachine guns, 10 semi-automatic rifles, and 34 mg2 machine guns.
Regardless of the firepower in the near and far range, the Japanese cavalry showed a crushing situation.

Coupled with Heizi as the leader, Shen Laoliu, Brainless and Unhappy, Lu Zhongda and other ten special forces to help out, it can only be said that the fate of this wave of Japanese cavalry is not very good.

Regardless of the 50 colleagues in the woods who were doomed not to come back, or the Chinese infantrymen who had definitely appeared in front of the position with more than 300 people, in fact, Koki Inoue, a clear-headed Japanese army captain, had not yet despaired.

Even if the Chinese have shown off their muscles first and destroyed 4 mountain cannons in one fell swoop, the Japanese army captain still firmly believes that he may not be able to fight, but as long as he can hold on for 15 minutes, His Majesty Da Zuo will come back to help .

Because, even if you don't love him, the noble baron of the empire, His Excellency Goto Daizuo still has to think about his own life!The back road must be kept!

However, the sudden dull explosion from a distance made Inoue Koki's face pale instantly.

He could still hear the explosion clearly from a distance of nearly 2000 meters. What does this mean?
Only heavy artillery!

Yes, when Tang Dao issued an attack order, the 1st artillery battery that had been prepared for a long time began a performance that stunned the officers and soldiers of the 769 regiment.

Except that the range of the 150 heavy mortar is far less than that of the 150 howitzer, the power of its shells is not weak at all.

Once the shot goes down, it is a crater as deep as two meters, and the theoretical killing radius is 15 meters. That is to say, within the radius of 15 meters, the shock wave caused by the shell weighing 19 kilograms can tear the human body into pieces, but the shrapnel flying around is enough. Enough to expand its killing radius outward twice!
It was the unlucky boy Nobita Nobita who was the first to be attacked by four 4-heavy mortars.

It is really that this man who mentioned his front-line command is too close to the front-line position of the 769 regiment, only 600 meters away.

At this distance, the 4x telescope may not be able to see very clearly, but it does not prevent the young commander of the 769 regiment who has been closely observing the battlefield and constantly making tactical adjustments to see the Japanese signal soldiers constantly going back and forth.

On the position blocked by the hills, there must be some important figures from the Japanese army.

He also ordered Li Daxi to try to bombard the vicinity with the 82-mm gun, but obviously, this small-caliber gun did not pose too much threat to the Japanese army protected by trenches and fortifications, so there was no need to waste shells.

But when he saw the four big guys from the 1st company of the Sixing regiment who came to support, he knew that the opportunity had come.

Four 4mm mortars fired five consecutive rounds of shelling, all of which fired at the area provided by the young commander of the 150 regiment. The coordinates were calculated by two veteran artillerymen, Pang Hai and Li Daxi, based on their own experience, and then compared.

There were some small discrepancies, which caused the two old artillerymen, both of whom were growing up in actual combat, to try to persuade each other with red faces for nearly half an hour. Coordinate bombardment, eight 4 mortars bombarded according to Li Daxi's coordinates.

Of course, the 8 mortars that had been almost completely empty of shells were supplemented enough, and another [-] shells were transported to the artillery position.

The artillerymen of the 769 regiment are collectively hi!
They thought that the 683rd Brigade was a local tyrant, but looking at it now, it turns out that they only got one of the words right.

Now is the real thing, never fought such a rich battle.

A total of 12 cannons fired nearly 150 shells at the very beginning of the general offensive, 40 of which hit Nobi Nobita's left front finger.

The young left of the Japanese army no longer worried that he would be killed by a certain big left.

Because, he was killed by the Chinese shells, and at least he got the reputation of Yu Sui on the spot.

After the war, the battle report sent by the 108th Division Division Headquarters to the Japanese North China Front Command also described this young leftist of the Japanese Army who died on the front line. For this reason, the North China Front Army Command also promoted him to a higher level military rank.

It's just that the rank of the middle left can only be hung on his tombstone by his wife who is destined to remarry.

Why do the Chinese have more artillery?Still such a big caliber
The Japanese infantry on the front line who wanted to take a break and fight again were completely stunned. Before that, Nobi Nobita Shao Zuo, wearing a sun turban on his head, poured chicken soup on them: Our army suffered heavy losses, and the Chinese were at the end of their strength. We only need Once again, just once, their position will be completely opened to our army.In recognition of the bravery of the warriors in this battle, on behalf of Goto Daizuo, I promise everyone that after this battle, the whole army can search for two small towns in China at will, and all actions are allowed, as long as the warriors want to
The chicken soup and promises raised the morale of the Japanese infantry, which had fallen to the bottom, a little bit.

But mud horse, is this called the end of the crossbow?Seeing the rising smoke and gunpowder turning a certain young man who was pouring poisoned chicken soup into scum, the Japanese infantry collapsed.

A swarm of retreating.

But this time, the Chinese soldiers didn't blow their charge horns, they just sat in the trenches and watched quietly.

Watching the cannonballs pass over their heads and fall into the running shit-yellow group, the group of 'shit' who are running hard will be blown up, and then thrown on the land of China to become fertilizer.

Just like the leader of the Four Elements Group, Gong Shaoxun, said: "This time, there is no need for the brothers to charge with their lives and use blood to open the way. Let's use shells and blast the motherfucker first!"

The officers and soldiers of the 769 regiment, who had just experienced a bloody battle, never thought that there would be such a day. They sat on the top of the mountain and watched such a feast of artillery fire that belonged to them.

However, the dream that I never thought about was born in front of my eyes.

Fun!So much fun!
It is self-evident that the Japanese Army Dazuo, who was also watching all this from the rear, felt at that moment!

Just using gray is not enough to describe it.

Because, this is not just a defeat.

Rather, how he will escape with the remaining seven 800 people is a difficult problem.

The Chinese soldiers on the high ground on the two wings began to move around, and the explosion sounded from the rear also meant that the Chinese were attacking his rear.

"I will lead my troops to a decisive battle with the Chinese in front of me, but the Chinese are ten times stronger than me, and they still have heavy artillery and other equipment. Our troops have little chance of winning! Even so, we will fight the enemy to the death to show our allegiance to His Majesty the Emperor! "

After standing still for a while, Goto Koshinan sent a farewell message to the division headquarters 6 kilometers away!
It turned out afterwards that it was this telegram that saved the headquarters of the 108th Division.

Xia Xiongyuan, who was still trying his best to deploy troops and generals in an attempt to gather heavy troops and the Chinese army for a decisive battle, immediately stopped all tactical plans at hand, and even had no time to bring a lot of luggage. He immediately took all the Japanese troops in Lucheng and sent them to Changzhi. withdraw.

He didn't even have time to grieve that he had lost the lives of more than 2000 imperial officers and soldiers, and he could only congratulate himself and the division headquarters for running fast.

Otherwise, Lucheng will be besieged by the Chinese army chasing after the victory. Then, whether he is dead or alive, the lieutenant general will nail the 108th Division and the Japanese North China Front Army to the pillar of shame in history.

Of course, whether it is a pillar of shame or not, it is only for the big shots to consider.For Inoue Koki at this time, he didn't ask much, he just wanted to support the main force.

It's a pity that the Chinese smashed such a humble prayer.
