Chapter 220: Cutting Off
The appetite is really big, but Jiro Dino then realized that the other party has this strength.
Judging from Jiro Dino's observations, the opponent's strength is at least about 4,000, and even if there are only 1,000 troops on the left and right, it is enough to deal a serious blow to Jiro Dino's defensive position.
Under the roundabout attack on both flanks, with the enemy offensive in front of him, Jiro Dino, who only had more than 500 remnants left, was also a little nervous at this moment.
"Order the two wings to hold my position to the death, use all the firepower, and block the enemy!" Although Jiro Dino sneered and roared, he knew that he could only give such an order.
The devil adjutant smiled bitterly, "Hai, sir!! ”
At this time, the sound of guns and cannons continued, and the shouts of killing had reached the headquarters where Di Ye Jiro was located, indicating that the attack on the Japanese blocking position north of Linxi County by Zhang Dabiao and Shen Qun had progressed smoothly and had reached the vicinity of Di Ye Jiro's headquarters.
As a last resort, Jiro Di Ye still summoned a devil staff officer from the bunker command and ordered: "Call the captain immediately and ask for reinforcements." Tell the captain what we are doing here, and if there are no reinforcements, the northern position will probably be lost within fifteen minutes. Hurry up and drop! ”。
"Hai, sir!" The devil staff officer immediately paused his head, and immediately walked to the side, picked up the field phone, and directly contacted the devil brigade headquarters in the county.
At this time, Hattori Musashi and Chief of Staff Di Ye, who were sitting in the Japanese military headquarters in Linxi County, were really tilting their heads and looking at the map of the county, pointing and pointing.
The fierce attack of Li Yunlong's headquarters made Hattori Musashi very frightened, and even the battles in the southern, eastern and western directions of the county town that were feinted also caused great pressure on the Japanese defensive positions.
Even though Hattori Musashi knew that the direction north of the county was the main direction of attack of the new regiment, Hattori Musashi clenched the reserves in his hands and did not move.
It's just that with the report of a devil staff officer from the brigade headquarters who came in a hurry, Hattori Musashi couldn't hold it back, "Report to the captain, Captain Dino asks for reinforcements!" ”
In Perak Bala, the staff officer of the Devil's Brigade Headquarters reported to Hattori Musashi about the casualties of the Japanese army north of the prefecture and the request for reinforcements.
In less than a minute, Hattori Musashi was furious, "Bage Yalu, what is Di Ye really doing to eat?" More than 1,400 troops, with heavy casualties in less than half an hour? There are only about 500 troops left, do you think that the soldiers of the empire are not killed? ”
In particular, learning that the three Type 92 infantry guns of the artillery squad were blown into parts, and the artillery fire was gone, which made Hattori Musashi even more angry.
It's just that there is Di Ye Zhen on the side, and Hattori Musashi also knows that it is Di Ye Zhen Di Ye Jiro who is guarding the Japanese military position north of the county seat, so he just scolded for a while and stopped talking.
Di Yezhen, the old devil, said: "Captain, the pressure on the defense in the north is huge, do you want to send reinforcements?" Otherwise, if the north of the county is lost, our next pressure will be huge. ”。
Hattori Musashi eyelids, is it still useful to say?
The area north of the county seat of Linxi was on higher ground, and once it was captured by the new regiment, Li Yunlong's troops could condescendingly carry out artillery strikes and charges against other parts of the county.
Therefore, the defensive positions in the area north of the county town cannot be lost, and they cannot be lost even if they die.
"Order the reserves to reinforce the northern defenders! Tell Jiro Dino that you must block the enemy's attack for me. In addition, I transferred all the mortars, grenadiers, light and heavy machine guns of the brigade headquarters to Jiro Dino to increase the firepower of the defenders in the north. ”
Hattori Musashi didn't bother to be angry at this time, the sound of gunfire was already coming from the north, and the shouts of killing were heard fiercely and clearly. It shows that Jiro Dino's defense is under great pressure, but Hattori Musashi also knows that the new regiment of troops that stormed the Japanese positions in the north is more than 4,000 people, and they are all elite troops. Ranwen
The firepower is strong, and the tactical movements are very skillful. Jiro Dino can block the opponent's attack and persist until now, in fact, it is not easy.
After all, it is not easy to kill half of the strength of the 3rd Division, eat up the new 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army with an infantry brigade and a cavalry brigade, and fight the defensive position guarded by Jiro Dino?
But for Hattori Musashi, at this time, he could only give Jiro Dino reinforcements. Otherwise, once the northern position is lost, everything will be rested!!
"Hairy, Captain!" Di Ye Zhen paused heavily, the war was tense, Hattori Musashi did not reprimand Di Ye Jiro too much, but also for the sake of his Di Ye Zhen's face.
Soon, Di Ye Zhen personally called, directly talked to Di Ye Jiro, and strictly ordered this younger brother to defend the northern position. If you can't keep it, you don't need to see him Di Yezhen.
Jiro Di Ye in the front-line bunker headquarters of the Japanese army north of the county hung up the phone with a solemn look, and even his brother Di Ye Zhen personally called to let Jiro Di Ye know.
If you can't hold your position, end it yourself!
"Eight grid tooth road, let it out!" Jiro Dino roared inwardly.
At this time, the sound of gunfire getting closer and closer was already approaching the bunker of Jiro Dino's headquarters, and the old devil was not hesitating. Gather all the command personnel and run out, wait until the reserve reinforcements sent from the county town are less than 200 people, and personally command the fight with the two men and horses commanded by Zhang Dabiao and Shen Qun.
"Boom, boom, boom!!"
"Da !!"
On the battlefield in the northern part of the county, the fighting between the two sides has entered a white-hot stage.
The remnants of the devil's northern position, under the personal command of Jiro Dino, fought at close range with the soldiers of the new regiment.
At one point, the little devil also launched several waves of counter-charges, and some troops of Zhang Dabiao's first battalion and Shen Qun's second battalion were taken by surprise.
Fortunately, the commanders and fighters on the front line of the two battalions are experienced in a hundred battles and have a wealth of battlefield experience. In addition, the two divisions combined with more than 4,000 troops, divided the troops into a roundabout and frontal main attack, greatly dispersing the strength of the Japanese defenders.
The devil's forces were forced to disperse and block, and the firepower was diluted. At this time, even if Jiro Dino personally commanded the blockade, he was hit by the charge and fire of the first and second battalions and suffered heavy casualties.
Although the reserves sent by Hattori Musashi and the remnants of the army under the command of Jiro Dino reached about 700 people, they were still quickly defeated by the first and second battalions, and suffered heavy casualties.
In less than ten minutes, the forces in the hands of Jiro Dino were constantly being consumed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Phew!" A cannonball exploded at close range around Dino Jiro, and a ghost soldier guarding Dino Jiro pounced on the old devil's body for the first time, and waited until Dino Jiro spit out the dirt in his mouth, only to find that the devil soldier who flew on his body to protect himself had been blown up by the cannonball.
"Sir, we've been cut off!" In the fierce battle, there were devil soldiers who cried and said to Dino Jiro with a sad face!
Dino Jiro looked back, and saw that the new regiment of soldiers who had found outflanked from the northwest and northeast had cut off the remnants of the Japanese army commanded by Dino Jiro and the devil defenders in the city, even if Dino Jiro wanted to lead the remnants to retreat into the city, it was impossible!
