Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 749 Matsumoto Regrets (Third Change!)

It was the Fourth Battalion of the New First Regiment who ambushed the Japanese reinforcements, and the direct commander was Wang Ping, the head of the regiment.

Seeing that the remaining Japanese and puppet troops were compressed to the slope on the other side of the road and stood for help, Wang Ping knew that the time left by the devils for him was running out.

"Regimental Commander, the devils definitely want to wait for their planes to come over and fight us back, or even kill us!" The Fourth Battalion Commander Rongjun also saw the devil's purpose.

Then he frowned and reminded: "I suggest to let the Feilei Cannon line up. There are not many devils in front, as long as a dozen or twenty-jin explosive packs are thrown over, the remaining devils will be wiped out!"

Wang Ping replied helplessly: "If the Feilei Pao can be launched, it would have been launched long ago!"

"They don't have any explosives. For this battle, I took out all the gunpowder in my inventory and used it for the Feilei Cannon, but I still ran out!"

As soon as Rong Jun gritted his teeth, he asked for a fight: "Commander, there are no flying thunder cannons, and we still have people. I will personally lead them to charge. It is impossible for them to slip away with the fat in their mouths!"

"Don't worry, we still have cards to play, and we don't need to fight the devils for our lives!" Wang Ping replied shaking his head.

"Don't forget, we still have a mountain artillery company... The mountain artillery squadron brought by the devils was killed by us before they fired. They didn't take them away when they retreated, which happened to be cheap for us. Inform the commander of the mountain artillery company and put a total of eight mountain artillery Gather them all together, one cannon with five shells, and let me bombard the Japanese and puppet troops on the hillside.”

The eight mountain guns fired together, and after only two salvos, the gathering place of the Japanese and puppet troops was blown up into smoke and dust.

Mountain artillery is different from mortars and infantry artillery. Even if devils lie on the ground, the powerful shock wave can still kill them.

Therefore, every mountain cannon shell that hits it can take away several lives, some of them are devils, and some of them are puppet soldiers.

The devil's captain in the middle of the pressured position escaped the shelling under the protection of the guards. However, there was no smile or surprise on his face, but despair, and there was even a trace of fear in his despair.

It has always been ridiculed by everyone. The low-level Eighth Route Army not only has mountain artillery, but also has an established mountain artillery unit.

Under the attack of an artillery unit of this size, even if he had twice as many subordinates, he would not be able to defend his position.

"Immediately send a telegram to the brigade headquarters, a farewell telegram: The Eighth Route Army assembled eight mountain cannons to attack our assembly area. The troops suffered heavy casualties, and there is no fortification to escape the shelling. Let us hold on. We will definitely not hold on until the aviation arrives!"

"However, the humble officer will definitely lead the soldiers of his troops to fight to the death, try to kill and injure the vital forces of the Eighth Route Army and weaken their strength?"

"Please brigade commander, please contact the Air Corps. Be sure to find the Eighth Route Army's mountain artillery unit and destroy them."

"All the [-] mountain artillery shells that I carried out of the city were seized by the Eighth Route Army. If their mountain artillery units cannot be destroyed, the Eighth Route Army with hundreds of artillery shells will definitely use these mountain artillery shells to bring unprecedented losses to the imperial army!"

The farewell telegram from the Japanese Army Brigade Headquarters in Linfen City from Sanquan Town caused chaos once again in the headquarters that had just calmed down.

The head of the brigade, Major General Matsumoto, turned into an angry lion again, biting whoever he saw.

In the sound of cursing one after another.

It didn't take long for the chaotic headquarters to become silent, and the atmosphere became more and more dignified.

"Bageyalu, what kind of battle is this? The Eighth Route Army didn't kill many people. Instead, it lost troops and sent so many equipment and ammunition to the Eighth Route Army. This is not a war at all, it's an enemy!"

"Immediately send a telegram to all the combat troops on the front line. During the battle, if you are not an opponent, you must destroy the excess weapons and ammunition at the critical moment, and absolutely no equipment and ammunition will fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. Otherwise, the Eighth Route Army of a regiment before the battle , when the battle is over, it is very likely that there will be more and more fights, and it will directly become a brigade!"

"Also, contact the aviation troops in Sanquan Town to reinforce them, and we must find and destroy the mountain artillery units of the Eighth Route Army!"

"A field infantry regiment of the imperial army only has one mountain artillery squadron, but our opponent has two mountain artillery squadrons and eight mountain artillery, and there are hundreds of shells. Once we face off, we must be the ones who suffer. This is not allowed to happen."

In Sanquan Town, Major General Matsumoto has given up any hope.

Through these battles, he gradually understood that it was a very bad plan for him to send troops into the Eighth Route Army to grab grain, and from the very beginning, he fell into the conspiracy of the Eighth Route Army. military.

He didn't get much food back, and he lost a lot of imperial troops.

More importantly, they took advantage of the opportunity to attack Sanquan Town after they sent all the mobile troops out to grab food, so that they couldn't even send out a large-scale reinforcement force. In the end, they could only deploy two squadrons for reinforcements. Then two squadrons were buried in vain.

If the troops he reinforced Sanquan Town a few hours ago were a reorganized brigade, Matsumoto was sure that they would never be wiped out by the Eighth Route Army.

Maybe under the cover of aviation, we can counterattack Sanquan Town, recapture Sanquan Town from the Eighth Route Army, and then severely damage or even wipe out the Eighth Route Army that entered Sanquan Town.

However, there are no ifs and no regrets in this world.

Sanquan Town is lost, and the reinforcements are gone. The regretful Matsumoto now has only one idea, to minimize the loss as much as possible.After this battle is over, gather your troops and take revenge on the new regiment.

Staring at the sand table, he asked the chief of staff: "How is the battle in Linfenbei? How long will it take for the air force to arrive!"

"There is still half an hour left, and the humble job has ordered our troops to shrink their defenses and stand by for reinforcements. When the air force arrives, break through under the cover of the air force and counterattack!"

"Yo Xi, the troops in Linfenbei can't lose any more!" Matsumoto breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he continued to order worriedly: "Don't they still have half a brigade? It's dawn now, with aviation reinforcements, the battlefield is our world!"

"Let this half of the brigade go to reinforce them, join forces with the disabled half of the brigade, and under the cover of aviation, counterattack the Eighth Route Army that attacked them. At the very least, it will severely damage the Eighth Route Army in Linfen North. Sanquan Town is lost, Linfen Bei can't lose any more!"

Suddenly, a communications staff officer rushed in and interrupted Matsumoto who was about to continue talking.

"General, there is an urgent call from Linfen North!"

"What happened?" Seeing the tense and panicked expression on the communications staff officer's face, Major General Matsumoto quickly had a very bad premonition, staring at the communications staff officer and asked!
"Hi!" The communications officer lowered his head and mustered up his courage to answer.

"The mopping up troops are being attacked by the Eighth Route Army regardless of attrition, and the troops have suffered heavy losses. It is very likely that the air force will not be able to persist!"

"The captain asked the aviation troops to bomb the battlefield after they arrived, destroying all weapons and ammunition on the battlefield, so as not to let the Eighth Route Army get a single bullet!"

"He also said that the Eighth Route Army consumed a lot of weapons and ammunition in the battle. As long as there is no new ammunition to replenish, even if they win the battle, the Eighth Route Army operating in Linfen North will become a remnant soldier short of guns and ammunition!"

Major General Matsumoto was stunned for ten seconds before he could react.

"Another half of the infantry brigade is gone! Bageyalu, what kind of battle is this? Losing so many troops in one night, is it because the Eighth Route Army's combat effectiveness has become stronger, or the Imperial Army's combat effectiveness has become weaker!"
