Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Chapter 230 Strong strength, smoke everywhere

Outside the Xiaoxinzhuang stronghold.

It was getting dark by this time.

Zhou Weihan looked at his watch, and then said: "The battle on Li Yunlong's side should be almost over, the next thing is to look at our independent detachment!"

"The deployment of this operation is careful, and the personnel of each regiment are mobilized reasonably. There is no problem in winning Fengle Station!" Xing Zhiguo said.

"If the situation permits, I would like to have a bigger appetite!" Zhou Weihan said with a smile, as if he had a bigger plan.

Two regiments ahead.

Xu Dali and the first battalion commander and the second battalion commander are waiting for the time to launch the attack.

The third battalion of the second regiment and the heavy machine gun company of the regiment have been divided into two parts, arranged on the north and south sides respectively, waiting for reinforcements from the nearby strongholds.

The Japanese army used the railway as the pillar, the road as the chain, and the bunker as the lock to implement the cage policy. The defense along the railway and road is the most stringent, and the permanent strongholds are also built.

The Xiaoxinzhuang stronghold is only a small stronghold responsible for defending Fengle Station, and there is neither a transmitter nor a small diesel generator in the stronghold.

The stronghold itself is arranged, with a three-story gun tower in the middle, surrounded by three bunkers on the outside, with a detachment of Japanese troops and a company of puppet troops.

"Regimental Commander, the wires outside the Xiaoxinzhuang stronghold have been cut off!" The guard company commander of the Second Regiment reported.

Xu Dali nodded to indicate that he could start to act. The first battalion commander got the approval and immediately led the first battalion towards Xiaoxinzhuang stronghold.

The two anti-aircraft guns unloaded from the pack horse have been assembled, and the soldiers of the artillery battalion pushed behind the first battalion.

The Japanese stronghold was surrounded by solid walls and clear fields. The soldiers of the first battalion were discovered by the puppet troops in the outer bunkers two miles away from the Xiaoxinzhuang stronghold.

When the puppet army saw the crowded Eighth Route Army approaching, they immediately fired warning shots.

After the defenders in the stronghold panicked for a while, the crooked handles arranged on the gun towers immediately opened fire.

"Haha, the bullets can't reach it, so I'll send you to heaven!" The first battalion commander watched the Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold firing in panic, and laughed.

"Push up the anti-aircraft cannon and give the little devil a taste of the cannonball!"

Inside the bunker, a puppet soldier said: "Platoon leader, what does the Eighth Route Army mean, surround but not attack!"

"It's probably the same old thing. If you want to surround the spot to fight for reinforcements, you should cheer up, and the reinforcements will arrive in a while!" The platoon leader of the puppet army didn't realize the danger at all.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the terrified voice of the soldiers around him: "Platoon, platoon leader, the Eighth Route Army has artillery!"

The puppet platoon leader took a closer look and sweated instantly.

I saw two anti-aircraft guns pushed up in the direction of the first battalion, and the gunner was adjusting the muzzle.

"Run!" The puppet platoon leader ran out of the bunker.

"Tom tom!" Two shells were fired from the muzzle of the black hole, and flew straight towards the three-story gun tower in the middle.

"Boom!" Two shells hit the gun tower, and the puppet platoon leader witnessed with his own eyes that the little devil's machine gunner on the top of the gun tower was blown away, and the entire gun tower was instantly destroyed.

Affected by this, the puppet troops in the three bunkers did not dare to stay in the bunkers for a while, for fear that they would take an earthen plane to the sky the next moment.

A battalion of fighters surrounding the stronghold charged in the morning from all sides, and more than [-] people surrounded the more than [-] puppet regiments who survived by chance.

"Don't kill with guns!"

"Don't kill with guns!"

Several puppet soldiers still resisted and were directly shot dead by a battalion of soldiers around them.

Most of the puppet army hadn't recovered from the panic just now. Seeing that they were surrounded and the leading officer was killed again, they put down their weapons very simply.

"It's still the anti-aircraft guns that are powerful, and with just one bag of cigarettes, we have wiped out one of the little devil's strongholds!" The first battalion commander of the second regiment said with a smile.

rear command.

Xing Zhiguo witnessed everything with a binoculars, and then put down the binoculars and said: "Old Zhou, our independent detachment is probably the first in the Eighth Route Army to pull out the strongholds of the Japanese army so quickly and swiftly!"

"The Japanese army just bullied us because of our poor industrial foundation, we can't make artillery, otherwise every stronghold in North China would be a living target!" Zhou Weihan said with a smile.

With the removal of the Xiaoxinzhuang stronghold, the morale of the soldiers of the Second Battalion was greatly shaken, and they crossed the stronghold impatiently and marched towards the Daxinzhuang stronghold in the east.

Xu Dali immediately deployed the idle first battalion to quickly support the third battalion, and removed the strongholds on the north and south sides.

The third regiment and the headquarters of the independent detachment, the militia and the young and strong who moved with the main force began to move forward.

The words are divided into two parts.

After Xinyi regiment ambushed the Japanese army's transport convoy, it was the first time that so many supplies were seized. Li Yunlong couldn't let it go after thinking about it, and finally ordered the guards of the regiment headquarters to escort the supplies with the wounded and the militia.

"Sun Desheng, you take the second battalion to support the political commissar, Zhang Dabiao, your first battalion follows me to support the fourth battalion, the artillery company is divided into two, and act now!"

"Yes!"

"Regimental Commander, where is the Type [-] infantry artillery assigned?" Wang Chengzhu asked at this time.

Li Yunlong's face was also a little bit tangled, Xinyituan only had this gun that was aimed directly at the artillery, so they could only take care of one side.

"Take it to the political commissar. Damn it, I don't believe in this evil. If you don't have a direct-pointing gun, you can't hold the little devil's gun tower?" Li Yunlong waved his hand to determine the path of the [-]-type infantry gun.

Wang Chengzhu got the order, turned around and was about to leave, but was grabbed by Li Yunlong, and whispered something in Wang Chengzhu's ear.

"Head, this is not good!" Wang Chengzhu hesitated.

"What's wrong? Wang Chengzhu!" Li Yunlong said with a straight face.

"Here!" Wang Chengzhu subconsciously stood at attention.

"I am the head of the Xinyi Regiment. I am the one who gave the order. If something goes wrong, the higher-ups will pursue the responsibility. I will bear it and carry out the order!" Li Yunlong said loudly.

"Yes!"

The blocking positions arranged by the third and fourth battalions of the New First Regiment were not far from the location where the Japanese transport convoy was ambushed.

On the other hand, Li Yunlong fired guns and shells, and the movement was so loud that the nearby Japanese strongholds heard the movement at the beginning of the battle, and they sent troops to support them one after another.

Li Yunlong's intention is also very clear, which is to make the movement as big as possible, concentrate the main force to ambush the Japanese army transport convoy, and the rest of the troops will send reinforcements. When the main force is free, they will reinforce the reinforcements and wipe out the Japanese and puppet troops coming out of the stronghold. To ease the difficulty of attacking Japanese strongholds.

The whole battle plan is very simple, the Japanese army will reinforce it if it is decided, but it relies on the strong strength of the new regiment, otherwise it will not be able to eat the transport convoy, and the loss of troops will be inevitable.

Ding Wei was not idle here either. Zhou Weihan gave the 28th Regiment bunker two anti-aircraft guns and gunners, and Ding Wei used them quite smoothly.

"Our regiment's battle plan is still conservative. When we fought against the Ninety-seventh Army, we saw the power of this thing. I didn't expect it to be so effective against the little devil's stronghold!" Ding Wei said, looking at the stronghold that was taken away in front of him.

"It's not too late now. Anyway, we are operating around the Hanchang Highway, and the little devil's stronghold can't escape!" Xiang Ying, the political commissar of the 28th regiment, said.

This was only a partial battle in Tainan. From the perspective of the whole of North China, half of North China was full of gunpowder, and the Japanese army's strongholds were pulled out one by one.

As the main battlefield of the Zhengtai Railway, the Eighth Route Army's offensive was even more violent. To the west of Pingding was a part of the 129th Division, and to the east of Pingding was the main force of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region.

More than one hundred outlying strongholds were removed one after another, and the Japanese Independent Fourth Brigade stationed along the Zhengtai Railway was directly beaten into a daze.

At the same time, Tongpu Railway, the 120th division at the north and south ends, the first column of death; the main force of the 386 brigade near the Baijin Railway and Linfen Highway, the third column of death; The highways from Taiwan to Weixian County and from Handan to Daming were damaged.
