Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 659 Chasing and intercepting (eighth more!)
"Battalion Commander, there is a devil's gun tower on the road ahead, and the devil's patrol has just passed by!" Ma Dongyun, the commander of the second battalion and fifth company, reported as soon as he saw Xiao Yunshan approaching.

"How many people are there in the devil's patrol team, and what is the equipment like?" Xiao Yunshan asked with a frown.

Ma Dongyun quickly replied: "Two motorcycles, one armored car!"

"Kill them!" Xiao Yunshan gritted his teeth and decided.

"We represent the main force of the regiment now, so we must fight like the main force of the regiment!"

"You take the infantry artillery that the regiment commander strengthened for us, and blow out the devil's gun tower in front of me, and the battle will end in 10 minutes. Then put the gun on the road for me, and when the devil patrol comes over, use the gun to kill their armor car!"

"Armored vehicles can block light and heavy machine gun bullets, but they can't block artillery shells. A single infantry artillery shell can be blown into scrap iron!"

"Sixth company, heavy machine gun platoon, and mortar platoon, also set up defenses on the road for me to block the mobile troops sent by the devils from the town's stronghold!"

"Calculating from the time I took down the gun tower, both companies have to defend for an hour, and give the devil a posture that the main force is crossing the road, and then retreat quickly!"

More than 100 Eighth Route Army soldiers carrying light and heavy machine guns and infantry cannons suddenly appeared outside the gun tower. Only six devils and a dozen puppet troops defended the gun tower, and they couldn't stand it for five minutes.

"It must be the main force of the new regiment, they want to cross the road from us!" Devil Sergeant Cao judged sullenly.

The squad leader of the puppet army next to him began to tremble when he spoke, staring at the military officer and asking, "Taijun...then what should we do next?"

"The Eighth Route Army hasn't completely surrounded the gun towers yet, so there's still time to retreat, why don't we retreat now!"

"Pa... Ba Ga..." Sergeant Cao gave the squad leader of the puppet army a resounding slap without hesitation.

"From now on, no one can mention retreating. The time has come to dedicate ourselves to the empire. Everyone is ready to fight, stick to the stronghold, and buy time for the reinforcements!"

"Contact the nearest stronghold immediately, the main force of the new regiment is here, requesting reinforcements!"

"Boom..." The violent shell explosion directly interrupted the Devil Sergeant Cao's order.

Ma Dongyun didn't even have the intention of shooting, and used infantry bombardment as soon as he came up.

A large hole was blown out in the explosion on the second floor of the blockhouse, and two devils and four puppet soldiers fell into the blockhouse with screams.

"Ba Ge Ya Lu, this is not fair, why don't they attack..." the military officer shouted with despair on his face.

"Boom..." In less than 20 seconds, the explosion sounded again.

A ball of flame exploded on the wall of the blockhouse, and then the sergeant saw that the solid brick wall of the blockhouse was scattered like flowers.

Because he was standing behind the brick wall, the torn bricks fell on him like rain, and buried him in the ruins in an instant.

"Two cannons kill the devils and one cannon building. It's good to have cannons!" Ma Dongyun was very satisfied with the result.

"A platoon of help, assist the artillery to send the infantry artillery to the road and aim it in the direction of the devil patrol. Others occupy the commanding heights next to the road, and I will kill the patrol that the devil returns to aid!"

Sixth Company also rushed up the road, and used a mountain ridge to deploy defenses at a distance of 700 meters from Fifth Company Sixth.

In the headquarters of the Japanese Army Brigade in Linfen City, Major General Matsui, who hadn’t slept all night, had a group of dark circles under his eyes, but he still didn’t feel sleepy at all. He stood in front of the sand table and stared at the new group’s breakthrough marked by the chief of staff. , with a sullen face, without saying a word.

Everyone knew that the head of the brigade was waiting for news.

He would not be relieved until he knew the exact location of the new regiment.

"General, urgent call from the front line!"

"The main force of the new regiment is rapidly shifting, heading north of us!" The communications staff officer reported as soon as he entered the war room.

Pointing to a point on the map, he said: "Here, they broke out from here. One of our artillery towers here has lost contact. Two explosions were heard from nearby positions, which were the explosions of infantry artillery shells."

"Even the infantry artillery has been dispatched, it must be the main force of the new regiment!" the chief of staff judged.

Matsui didn't affirm or deny it. He still needed more evidence to prove this judgment. He stared at the communications staff and asked, "Is there any other news!"

"Hi!" the communications officer replied.

"The patrol that rushed over quickly was blocked by a new regiment before reaching the gun tower, and the armored car was destroyed by them with infantry guns!"

"The mobile troops sent by the stronghold recently were also stopped by the Eighth Route Army."

"They have powerful firepower, with a large number of heavy machine guns and mortars. The mobile team has suffered heavy losses and is relying on armored vehicles to persist. But it is absolutely impossible to break through the Eighth Route Army's interception, unless there are reinforcements to kill them!"

The chief of staff stood up again: "General, I am sure that the Eighth Route Army that is crossing the road is the main force of the new regiment."

"The blocking forces on both sides of the road are buying time for their main force to cross the road."

"If it's daytime now, we only need a few bombers to fly over, and we can easily rebuild a new group of main force!"

Matsui's eyes have shifted to the Guangfa area north of Linfen.Frowning, he thought about the purpose of Xinyi Tuan to go to the north of Linfen, and soon he thought of it.

"I understand that the hills and mountains to the north of Linfen are very suitable for the Eighth Route Army to fight mobile warfare and guerrilla warfare. They must go there to form a base."

The chief of staff also thought about it: "Also, we don't have many troops stationed there, and there is only one infantry squadron in total. With the strength of the new regiment, we will definitely be able to quickly capture and control this hilly area!"

As if thinking of all the difficulties and helplessness that the Imperial Army faced when fighting guerrillas with the Xinyi Regiment before, the chief of staff suddenly frowned into a big Sichuan character.

Staring at Matsui, he asked: "General, it is very suitable for the development of the Eighth Route Army. They must not be allowed to go there!"

"Our troops are not vegetarian!" Major General Matsumoto gave a very pertinent answer.

The order said: "Contact the special brigade, draw out a squadron, find a new regiment of main forces, and attack and harass them along the way. I will use the guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare that the Eighth Route Army is good at to fight them in turn. Doesn't the Chinese have a saying: Is it the way to return the body, I will return it today!"

"The main force of the special brigade, immediately rush to the hills west of Linfen to hide and wait. If there are still people from the main force of the new regiment who can kill them alive, kill them directly!"

"Chief of Staff, the mobile troops going out of the city, the encirclement and suppression troops, immediately change the marching direction. I will chase and intercept them on the way to the hills in the north of the city for the Xinyi Regiment!"

In the end, the Sixth Company failed to kill the last twenty or so devils who relied on armored vehicles for defense.

As soon as the blocking time was up, the troops left the road and disappeared into the night.

Because it is night now, and the living devils dare not leave the armored car too far away, so they can only watch the new group retreat from under their noses
