I am helping

Neiji Okamura did not know that the pangolin had been exposed and was arrested.

But Ningji Okamura knew that the main force of the Eighth Route Army was going to attack Taiyuan.

The 1st Division, 21st Division, 35th Division, 4th Cavalry Brigade have been ordered.

In addition, the main force of the Mongolian army began to gather, ready to reinforce the first army at any time.

Shanxi's geographical location is very important to the Japanese army, and the Japanese army will not give up unless it is absolutely necessary.

Although the Eighth Route Army and the devils have not yet fought, the whole air is already filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

All forces with a little bit of intelligence know that a big war is about to break out.

Outside Heyuan County.

Attack the former enemy temporary headquarters of the 1st Datong Division.

Kong Jie and Ding Wei, as well as the political commissar, chief of staff and combat staff of the two regiments, formed the front enemy headquarters.

Take advantage of the night cover.

The New Second Regiment, the Independent Regiment, and part of the New First Regiment assembled outside Heyuan County.

"Report to Commander Kong, Yao Shangwen, Commander of the 150mm Howitzer Battalion of the Xinyi Regiment, is reporting to you!"

Yao Shangwen, with a big waist and a helmet on his head, walked quickly into the headquarters and saluted Kong Jie with a snap.

Kong Jie won the lottery, so Kong Jie served as the commander-in-chief of the 1st Division stationed in Datong.

"Battalion Commander Yao, you came just in time!"

Kong Jie immediately returned the military salute, smiling like a chrysanthemum, and said:

"The marching position of your battalion is behind the 2nd Artillery Battalion. I will send air defense troops to protect you."

Kong Jie has been coveting this new regiment's 150mm howitzer battalion for a long time, and this time he can finally command it to fight in person.

In this battle, in order to confuse the Japanese army, the Japanese army could not guess the strategic goal of the Eighth Route Army.

Li Yunlong also spent a lot of money, handing over the 150mm howitzer battalion, the artillery battalion 2, as well as the tank battalion, the Katyusha rocket battalion, the 37mm anti-aircraft gun battalion and the 88mm anti-aircraft gun battalion to the command of Kong Jie.

The automobile battalion was also dispatched to provide all-round logistical support for combat materials for the troops stationed in the 1st Division in Datong.

The logistics support provided by the car battalion and the airdrop supplies provided by Boss Chen constitute a double guarantee.

In terms of logistical supplies, Kong Jie is very satisfied.

In this battle, Kong Jie was going to let the 1st Division experience what firepower from the Eighth Route Army is.

However, the 1st Artillery Battalion, the 203mm Howitzer Battalion, and the Guard Battalion of the new regiment stayed at the base.

"Yes!"

Yao Shangwen paid a military salute, turned and left.

After leaving the headquarters, Yao Shangwen boarded a jeep and drove towards the 150mm howitzer battalion behind.

On the way back to the 150mm howitzer battalion, Yao Shangwen saw the tank battalion and the Katyusha rocket artillery battalion pass by.

Today's Xinyi Regiment is really rich, it looks like a military parade.

Yao Shangwen calculated carefully, the new second regiment and the independent regiment had a total of 4 artillery battalions, plus the 3 artillery battalions of the new first regiment, that was 7 artillery battalions.

Although the establishment is an artillery battalion, the size of each artillery battalion has reached the level of an artillery regiment.

In other words, this attack on the 1st Division of the Japanese Army used a full 7 artillery regiments.

With the addition of 60mm mortars and 82mm mortars, there are at least five or six hundred artillery pieces.

In terms of artillery firepower, it is quite satisfactory.

With the troops of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army, can it withstand such a powerful firepower bombardment?
In the former enemy headquarters.

Tank Battalion Commander Sun Desheng reported to Kong Jie that he had arrived.

Zhang Shuangyi, the commander of the Rocket Battalion of the New First Regiment, came to the former enemy headquarters and gave a military salute: "Report to Commander Kong, Zhang Shuangyi, the commander of the Rocket Battalion of the New First Regiment, will report to you with the Rocket Battalion!"

"Battalion Commander Zhang, you have worked hard."

The smile on Kong Jie's face grew stronger:
"According to the battle plan, your rocket battalion will follow the cavalry battalion and arrive in Datong at dawn to provide artillery support for the cavalry."

The cavalry battalions of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment have a total of more than 1200 cavalry, which is close to the strength of a Japanese cavalry regiment.

The quality of the Eighth Route Army cavalry is similar to that of the Japanese cavalry, but in terms of equipment, the Eighth Route Army cavalry is a few blocks away from the Japanese cavalry.

Whether it is fighting immediately or dismounting, the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army cavalry far exceeds that of the Japanese Cavalry Wing.

But this time, the cavalry battalions of the Xinyi Regiment and the Independent Regiment mainly dismounted to fight, blocking the retreat of the Japanese First Division.

The 1st Division of the Japanese Army had a heavy artillery unit in Datong. Li Yunlong worried that the cavalry battalions of the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment would not be able to withstand the heavy artillery unit of the Japanese army.

and so.

When making plans, Li Yunlong and Wang Dehou took this into consideration and assigned the Katyusha Rocket Battalion to cooperate with the Eighth Route Army cavalry to provide artillery reinforcements.

The cavalry can run long distances, so can the rocket artillery battalion, and the speed is no worse than the cavalry.

"The marching position of your rocket artillery battalion is behind the cavalry battalion of our independent regiment and the new second regiment."

Kong Jie ordered:
"Once the rockets of our two regiments kill the devil's stronghold, you will immediately rush to Datong at full speed!"

"I will arrange for a 37mm anti-aircraft battalion to protect your bazooka battalion."

"Do you understand the mission of your battalion?"

"understand!"

Zhang Shuangyi responded loudly.

The detailed combat mission had already been issued, and Kong Jie just repeated it to make him more clear.

Immediately afterwards, Li Changsheng, commander of the 2nd Artillery Battalion of the Xinyi Regiment, and Song Daying, commander of the 37mm anti-aircraft artillery battalion, came to report. Kong Jie also arranged the marching positions of their two battalions and issued combat tasks.

……

The night is like ink, and a medium-sized stronghold stands in the night.

Because the original Shimonoseki stronghold had been blown up by the Xinyi regiment with rockets, but the Japanese army built a new stronghold near the Shimonoseki stronghold.

The rebuilt stronghold is also called Maguan stronghold, because the place name here is Maguan.

It used to be a horse track and a pass, and it used to be a relatively important military location.

But later the bridleway was changed to a road, allowing two trucks to drive side by side.

At this time, the Maguan stronghold was silent.

Only the lights were on above the cannon tower.

A high-power searchlight shone down from the cannon tower, and the bright lights swept across the road from Northwest Shanxi to Datong Highway from time to time.

At the current Maguan stronghold, there is only a small group of devils and a company of puppet troops stationed.

Every night, the devils and puppet soldiers were terrified even when they went to sleep.

Although there is a high-power searchlight, both the devils and the puppet army know that it is useless.

Because more than 20 kilometers away is the site of the Eighth Route Army Xinyi Regiment.

If the Eighth Route Army wants to take down the Maguan stronghold, it doesn't need to send troops to attack at all. It only needs to pull the heavy artillery troops over and cover the Maguan stronghold with a wave of artillery fire.

The previous Maguan stronghold was killed in this way.

Therefore, the Japanese army only stationed a small group of more than 1 devils at the Maguan stronghold, because Nakazawa Sanfu knew very well that even if a large group of devils was stationed, in front of the heavy artillery units of the Eighth Route Army, they were no different from those for nothing.

but.

Learned the lesson of the last time the Shimonoseki stronghold was attacked by heavy artillery troops, the garrison troops were wiped out, and even the message for help was not sent out.

Mitsuo Nakazawa ordered the radio station to be placed on a hill more than 700 meters away from the stronghold.

The devil's engineers dug a hidden cave on the top of the mountain. Not only can they observe the entire road, but if the Maguan stronghold is attacked, the radio station can also be intact.

Even if the Maguan stronghold was destroyed and the Eighth Route Army went northward along the road, the Japanese army's radio station could report the situation to the division headquarters in time.

Mitsuo Nakazawa, head of the 1st Division, has studied Chinese art of war.

In the art of war, this move is called Ming Xiu Plank Road and Dark Chen Cang.

But it is a pity that the Sword Squadron came to the Maguan stronghold to guard more than half a month ago.

When the devils in the Maguan stronghold were delivering food and water to the devils in the cave more than 700 meters away, they were discovered by members of the Sword Squadron.

Just when the rocket launcher company of the independent regiment was setting up guns 5 kilometers away.

Under the leadership of Wang Gensheng, the No. 1 combat team of the Sword Squadron sneaked under the cliff behind the cave where the devils were hiding under the cover of night.

After reconnaissance, the devil has two secret sentries in front, and it is not easy to attack quietly.

But on the cliff behind the cave, the devils did not set up a sentry post.

Wang Gensheng gestured sign language to one of the team members. Beside Wang Gensheng, Wang Yousheng, who was carrying a flamethrower, had eyes as bright as light bulbs.

The team member made a sign language response, and immediately clawed his fingers, clung directly to the cliff, and climbed up.

This team member is named Yang Ziyun, and his unique skill is that he can climb rocks or city walls with his bare hands without using any tools.

Almost every member of the Sword Squadron has their own special skills.

Because the cliff is relatively high, the hook rope cannot be thrown up, so a team member needs to climb up with bare hands and put the rope down.

The tens of meters high cliff looks scary, but in front of a climbing master like Yang Ziyun, there is almost no difficulty.

In less than 2 minutes, Yang Ziyun climbed to the top of the cliff.

Take out a loop of rope from the combat backpack, fix one end of the rope, and then throw the other end of the rope down the cliff.

The members of the Sword Squadron went up the cliff one by one along the rope.

In less than 10 minutes, members of Wang Gensheng's team quietly climbed to the top of the cliff.

And lurked outside the cave where the devil was hiding.

About 10 minutes later, Wang Gensheng looked at his watch, and it was time for the planned firing of the Katyusha rocket launcher.

Immediately, he gave combat sign language to prepare for the battle behind him.

About 20 seconds later, at a position about 5 kilometers south of the Xinmaguan stronghold, Wang Gensheng and his team members saw rockets rising up there.

The tail flames of these rockets streaked across the night sky in beautiful streamers, and smashed towards the Xinshiguan stronghold with piercing whirring sounds.

Boom, boom, boom, boom...

Accompanied by the muffled sound of a huge thunderous explosion, huge fireballs burst out at the position of the Xinmaguan stronghold, and the Xinmaguan stronghold was immediately plunged into a huge sea of ​​gunpowder smoke and flames.

The moment the first rocket exploded, Wang Yousheng jumped up, facing the entrance of the cave where the devil was hiding, and pulled the trigger of the flamethrower.

A devil came out to check the situation when he heard the explosion, when he was hit by a fire dragon head-on, and was instantly engulfed in flames.

Wang Yousheng's eyes and expression were fierce, and he continued to output into the cave.

what--

Immediately afterwards, several shrill Japanese-style screams came out of the cave.
