blood feud

According to the original combat plan, Gao Jingxiang, deputy battalion commander of the Independent Battalion, should take the lead in launching the attack at 11:30 p.m.Because the capture of the Liuhe Iron Bridge was the key point of the entire battle, he took the lead to catch the enemy by surprise.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, Gao Jingxiang had already moved his troops along the river bank to a depression west of Zhangjiatun.It is only more than 800 meters away from the little devil's bridgehead, which is the best strike distance for infantry artillery.

"Brothers, after we escaped from the North Camp, we are waiting for the day of revenge! After the artillery company fires and destroys the bridgehead here, you have to climb to the iron bridge and hide. Wait until the infantry cannon After crossing the railway, it will directly attack the bridgehead on the opposite side."

Gao Jingxiang gathered 100 people from the second and third platoons of the cavalry company and said: "Once the bridgehead is knocked down, the task of your cavalry company is to rush forward, and the goal is the railway station! You have heard it in the past few years, and the fellow villagers said Our Northeast Army is not pissed, they are all a bunch of cowards, today is the time to prove ourselves."

"The 18 machine guns of the cavalry company are all handed over to you, and it will be up to you next! Don't worry, I will be the on-site commander in this assault operation, and you just follow me to rush up! We don't have horses now, then Do a good job as an infantry for a few days. Even if you are an infantry, you can't run slower than an infantry!"

When Gao Jingxiang mobilized, Weng Shiming had already arrived at the starting position of the attack with three field cannons.Hearing Gao Jingxiang finished speaking, Weng Shiming continued: "We are all bundled together. The reason why we can't rush up at the same time is because the car can't keep up with the speed if it wants to drive across the railway."

"However, my three field guns are not just for show. I will bombard the bridgehead to the north of the little devil at the same time later. Even if I can't open it, I will stun the little devil inside and provide you with the opportunity to rush forward. An opportunity for the iron bridge. To wash away the shame on us, to avenge the villagers who died in the Wang's shack for covering us, just tonight!"

While the soldiers of the cavalry company were preparing for battle, the soldiers of the artillery company were making final preparations in the dark.Infantry artillery is a direct-pointing artillery, and now it is direct-pointing shooting, so there is nothing to calculate at all.The key is that these fighters have not yet operated the Type [-] infantry artillery, so they are using the last opportunity to practice repeatedly.

Three 75mm field guns were about to attack the bunker on the other side of the river. The artillery observers were making tense calculations, and the shooters were also repeatedly training to load shells.

Weng Shiming raised his wrist and used starlight to identify the hands of the watch.At [-]:[-], he let out a low growl: "Regardless of the number of shells, fire until the bunker is blown up!"

The two infantry guns and the three 75mm field guns had already loaded the shells. Following Weng Shiming's order, the five shells flew out of the barrels in two groups and went straight to their respective targets!

Boom—boom—boom!A series of big explosions opened the prelude to the war.

"Brothers, follow me!" Gao Jingxiang rushed towards the railway first with a wave of his shell gun.

Although the [-]-type infantry artillery is powerful, it is not easy to smash the monsters in front of it. Three salvos in a row did not blow up the bunker.However, the two heavy machine guns above the bunker were blown up.Inside the bunker, there were shouts of little devils at the beginning, and machine guns fired from the shooting holes.

But with the fifth round of salvo, the little devil's voice became inaudible, and the machine gun also fell silent.

Go--

Gao Jingxiang saw that the enemy's machine gun had stopped moving, and immediately jumped up from the side of the railroad track, shouting and rushing towards the opposite side.The 18 soldiers behind him were not far behind, [-] machine guns took the lead, and went straight to the other side of the river along the railway.

"Stop the shelling! The machine gun squad rushed into the bunker, and if they didn't die, I would kill all the little devils! The artillery company hurriedly got the car onto the railway, and then slowly drove to the other side of the river to reinforce the cavalry company's battle!"

Weng Shiming knew that it would be very difficult to completely blow up the reinforced concrete on the opposite side, but the continuous bombing has already killed or stunned the people inside, and now is the time to beat the dog in the water.

Because the attack on the two bridgeheads was a sudden attack, the whole process was completed in five salvos from five artillery pieces.However, the progress of the battle was not smooth!

After Gao Jingxiang led a hundred soldiers across the iron bridge, he bumped into a pair of little devils as soon as he turned a corner.They should have come out of the barracks to reinforce the bridgehead, so they were caught off guard by Gao Jingxiang's 18 machine guns.

Before Gao Jingxiang and the others could pounce on them, two flames burst out from a pile of weeds next to the railway, and immediately knocked down the three machine gunners who rushed to the front!

bunker!The little devil actually built a dark fort next to the railway that entered the train station!The intensive firepower of the two machine guns pressed Gao Jingxiang and the others to the ground, unable to lift their heads.

The group of little devils who were hit head-on earlier had about [-] people left. Now they are relying on the bunker to confront Gao Jingxiang and the others.

"Everyone, don't worry!" At this moment, Weng Shiming had already led a dozen people from the artillery company to bend down and ran over: "Hurry up and set up the mortar, and let me bomb the infantry of the little devil on the opposite side!"

Pass!Pass!Pass!

Five rapid fires from the three mortars immediately blew up the 500 meters in front of them into a sea of ​​flames. Most of the more than 30 little devils were killed or injured, so they could only keep retreating.The mortar immediately adjusted its direction and began to bomb the bunker in front.

The grenade of the mortar is much more powerful than the grenade. The shooting of the two machine guns in the bunker began to become intermittent. There was no way to shoot a complete burst, and there was no great threat.

"The machine gunner hit me hard!" Gao Jingxiang finally regained his strength and ordered the light machine gun to clean up the dozen or so little devils who kept retreating.

When Weng Shiming saw the sound of machine guns firing from the bunker, he suddenly became angry from embarrassment: "Throw all the grenades brought over at me, and kill these sons of bitches!"

They didn't open up the situation here, and violent gunshots suddenly erupted from the direction of the northeast county, mixed with the shouts of hundreds of people!In particular, the entire ground began to tremble, which was the result of the full-speed impact of the huge cavalry.

It is said that after Guan Xingguo, the deputy head of the first regiment of the Guards Division, received the order, he led a cavalry battalion that had been lurking in Daqinggou for more than half a month tonight, and approached Zhangwu County under the cover of night. On the first line, I met the cavalry brigade of the little devil!

It turns out that because the cavalry is different from other troops, it needs a huge site to raise war horses.Therefore, the cavalry brigade of the 26th Regiment of the Little Devils was not stationed in the county seat, but in Xinglong Mountain.

This force had already arrived at the Kurent Banner, and was preparing to launch a surprise attack on Fuxin with another cavalry brigade.Because the Kwantung Army Command suddenly ordered to end the solemn operation against Rehe, they just returned to their station this afternoon.

Guan Xingguo had scouted here some time ago and knew that the little devil's cavalry brigade was in this place.Today, because I was afraid of exposing my whereabouts, I did not conduct the final reconnaissance.With such a small mistake, the two cavalry teams collided head-on!

The little devil's cavalry brigade was preparing to reinforce it because it heard the fierce shelling from the Liuhe Iron Bridge.Guan Xingguo's cavalry battalion was preparing to attack the county seat, so the two troops marched in the same direction, advancing rapidly from north to south.

The only difference is that when the little devil saw Guan Xingguo's troops rushing towards them, he didn't call them names.Because they thought it was the cavalry brigade from the Kurent Banner coming for reinforcements, they were unprepared and were still speeding up towards the county seat.

But Guan Xingguo knew that the team of cavalry next to him was definitely not his own, because Chen Jie and his troops should be on the bank of the Liu River, more than ten kilometers away from here!

Besides, attacking the county seat is a combat mission. It is impossible for Chen Jie and the others to have nothing to do and come here in the middle of the night to enjoy the scenery!

Anyone who is not one of his own and hastily approached the battlefield is definitely the enemy.

Intentional versus unintentional!Guan Xingguo led the troops to approach slowly, and only gave an order when the distance was more than 50 meters. More than [-] machine guns fired at the same time, which caught the little devil's cavalry brigade by surprise!

Subsequently, more than 1000 people from the two cavalry teams got into a mess, and a scuffle started in the north of Zhangwu County.

Let's talk about Li Bozhou's company of Chen Jie's contingent. They started moving towards the county town from the hiding place at [-] o'clock in the evening.When the bridgehead exploded violently, they also launched an attack on the county seat.

Then it went straight into the core of the county from the east, and the last thing I encountered was the Gendarmerie Squadron of the Little Devil, but it was blocked at the central crossroads and could not advance half a step.

Although the weapons and equipment are much worse, the little devil is familiar with the terrain, and there are still many barricades that can be used.Li Bozhou and the others were cavalry soldiers, and they were attacked head-on by the military police squadron of the little devil, and 5 soldiers were sacrificed immediately.In the end, there was no other way, and the two sides came to a stalemate in this place.

More than ten minutes later, Chen Jie finally arrived with the second company and the third company, and finally defeated the little devil's gendarmerie squadron with a mortar attack. Intensive explosions!

Now the enemy's situation is unclear, and no one can say clearly what the situation is now.The only basis for judging, that can only be that wherever there is gunfire, that is the main battlefield!

Although Chen Jie was young, he was much calmer than Xia Enze and the others, and his mind was always calmer.It's not okay to be calm, because a few times, I almost caused a big disaster, and I was almost shot by Bai Shujie twice!

At this time, he gave the order without the slightest hesitation: "The first company reinforces the north of the county, the second company reinforces the independent battalion, and the third company completely wipes out the gang of little devils on the opposite side, and then seizes the train station! I will go to Yujiapu to see the enemy's reinforcements." Condition."

However, Chen Jie's deployment of troops this time is considered just right, otherwise there might be a big problem!

It turned out that Weng Shiming, an independent battalion, had troubles one after another. The soldiers of a hundred cavalry companies had now sacrificed 19 people, and it was already difficult to move an inch!

After all, what happens next, let's see the breakdown in the next chapter.
