Chapter 310 The Battle Wind Blows (3)

Tang Dayao cupped his hands to Li Chong and said, "Leader, I'm obsessed with old Tang!"

Li Chong retracted his sniper rifle, and blew on the smoke that had dispersed from the muzzle of the gun, "I would like to accept the bet!"

Li Chong, who was proud of himself for hitting the target with the farthest shot so far, and thought he had a good start in the devil's first siege, did not know that in fact, the whole regiment felt that the devil's good start in the Meiling siege took place in Guojia Town In the woods outside the stronghold, a banner planted by Jian Yongjiang, the second battalion commander, unexpectedly blew up a pathfinding team of the devils a few days later.

Tang Dayao suddenly wanted to renege on his debt. If the three company commanders below knew that he had lost a box of gas grenades, wouldn't he blame himself to death?

Just as he was making up his mind, a communication soldier from below ran up, "Regiment commander, the regiment headquarters forwarded the telegram from the brigade headquarters, and the brigade commander asked what our regiment has done in the east of Meiling?"

Uh.
Li Chong suddenly realized that from overturning the train to when the devils set off a big battle, he had been busy moving supplies and organizing a battalion to prepare for the coming rescue devils, so he didn't have time to report to the brigade headquarters.

Now that the battle is raging, it would be strange if the brigade head didn't call to inquire.

You can’t blame yourself for this, the Devil’s plane came to bomb after overturning the train, and within two hours of the Devil’s armored train returning to rescue soldiers, he was cleaning the battlefield, and he couldn’t report to the brigade headquarters before the Devil returned Attacked himself.

Li Chong quickly organized the language in his brain, and the communications soldier quickly recorded what Li Chong said on paper.

"The first battalion of our regiment recently achieved a great victory in the Meiling section of the Nanxun Railway. It destroyed an enemy coal train and wiped out more than [-] devils. The Meiling section of the railway was substantially destroyed. The enemy was unwilling to fail and wanted revenge. Our regiment has Break it into pieces, rely on the deep and vast Meiling Mountains and Rivers, take advantage of the enemy's unfamiliarity with Meiling's internal conditions, and deal with the invading enemy, making them retreat in spite of difficulties!"

When Li Chong replied to the brigade commander's inquiry telegram, 700 meters away from the edge of Meiling, Nobuichi Nantian in the tent headquarters heard gunshots swinging from a distance, and heard the team leader rushing in telling him that a second lieutenant had been killed. After being killed by the bullet flying over from the woods, he thumped the table heavily with both hands.

It's not a good omen for one person to die before going out.But Nantian still held back the momentum of attacking immediately, because the division commander's attack order had not yet been issued, and the encirclement and suppression happened suddenly, and the rear supply troops had not followed up.

In Nanchang City.

Although the devil's siege against Meiling was launched suddenly because of the loss of a train, the head of the division, He Mao, knew his own disadvantage, that is, Meiling was too big, and the soldiers of the imperial army knew nothing about the mountains and rivers inside. We know that the most difficult thing is to find the old nest of the Chongqing Army in the vast mountains.

Under such circumstances, Ogamo decided to mobilize troops from three directions and use a three-pronged approach.According to a series of incidents in Anyi County, Fengxin County, and the train attack on the east side of Meiling in the past, after Ogamo and his staff gathered together, the Nantian Brigade was assembled to attack from the east side of Meiling, and the Eto Detachment was responsible for attacking from the east side of Meiling. The attack from the southwest and the Araki detachment are responsible for attacking from the northwest of Meiling.

Of course, Ogamo did not ask Eto and Araki detachments to dispatch all of them, but only asked them to assemble teams of 600 people each. Among them, the Imperial Army soldiers must have at least two squadrons of 300 people each, so as to maintain the combat effectiveness of the mixed formation. The eastern Nantian brigade is the main force, and the Eto and Araki detachments are assisted from the other two directions.

In this way, the total strength of the devils and puppet troops in the three directions of Meiling is as follows:
The devils who got off the train on the east side of Meiling, together with the devils and puppet troops mobilized from the west side of Nanchang City, made up the Nantian brigade with 350 imperial soldiers and more than [-] imperial association troops.

On the southwest side of Meiling, three hundred devils and two dogs from Fengxin County gathered outside the stronghold of Guojia Town.

On the northwest side of Meiling, the same three hundred devils and three hundred and two dogs in Anyi County used the stronghold of Changbu Town as the starting point for their attack.

At the same time, the ten sorties hovering over Meiling were divided into three parts, each hovering over their respective skies, preparing to provide early bombing support when launching an attack.

The telegram of the completion of the attack in the three attack directions was submitted to Ogamo's desk. There were 1000 soldiers from the Imperial Army, nearly [-] soldiers from the Imperial Association Army, and the actual strength of [-] troops. According to information, when the Chongqing Army entered Meiling, it was only [-]. Many soldiers.Seeing such a number, Ogamo's worries about the unfamiliarity of the terrain dissipated a lot. He just wanted to use sufficient troops to make up for the disadvantage of the lack of terrain.

In his opinion, although Meiling has large forests, many mountains and complex terrain, the mighty [-] or so brave soldiers of the imperial army can completely open up mountains and waters!

Under the setting sun, at six o'clock in the evening in summer, the sky was not dark.

"Your Excellency, the offensive telegram from the division commander!"

Inside the command tent, the devil in front of the radio station suddenly stood up, bowed to Nobuichi Nantian in front of the command table, and handed over an attack order from the regiment leader.

"Yangxi!"

Nantian Shinichi saw the telegram and the division commander ordered them to advance at least 500 meters into Meiling from three directions before dark, to clear up the safety hazards of camping at night, and not to allow the Chongqing Army to move around the edge of Meiling. space.The supply troops arrived at night, and tomorrow morning at [-] o'clock they buried pots for cooking, and everyone prepared dry food for the day, and at [-] o'clock, the three lines moved forward layer by layer into Meiling together.

Moreover, while looking for the Chongqing army to destroy them this time, tomorrow's battle will carry out the policy of burning and killing all living people and objects in Meiling to implement General Okamura's policy of burning and killing all the security forces of the North China Front Army. It is inconvenient to carry within, so there is no need to rob them all, just burn them all and kill them!
This order was quickly conveyed to the devils and the puppet army, and then Nantian Shinichi photographed the telegram on the table, walked out of the command tent, looked at Meiling 700 meters away, pulled out the command knife from his waist, and stood up to a squadron of devils and hundreds of soldiers. Next to the puppet army.

He waved his saber in the direction of Meiling, "Kill it!"

Hundreds of puppet troops were in front, and a squadron of devils was behind, charging towards the eastern edge of Meiling with guns in hand.

At the same time, four sorties of Type [-] bombers hovering over the ghosts on the east side of Meiling swooped down and carried out intensive bombing of the woods behind the [-]-meter slope beside the railway track on the east side of Meiling. The woods had already been bombed by high-explosive bombs from planes three times, but this time the casualties were the lowest, because the officers and soldiers of the fragmented battalion seldom gathered in one place.

The devils also understood that once the Meiling Chongqing Army with heavy machine guns set up an ambush behind the [-]-meter slope, they would have to suffer huge casualties when they were in the climbing attack position, so they used planes to blow up a wave first.

This scene was also staged in the Meiling mountain forest in front of the stronghold of Guojia Town and Changbu Town.

"Regimental Commander, the devils have launched an attack. You must go back to the regiment headquarters, or to my battalion headquarters. Leave the rest of the battle to us."
