When Li Yunlong ordered all his troops to attack five minutes later, at this time, Muto Kenichi stood at the rear of the breakthrough team, staring at the devil soldiers who were constantly being devoured by ambush fire, and the blood in his heart kept dripping.

"Click!!

Hurried footsteps came from the front, and I saw the chief of staff of the 15th Brigade, Ryusansa Ono, running back with a panicked expression. As soon as he saw Kenichi Muto, who was standing behind a low slope and coordinating the breakthrough of various departments, he suddenly came in a hurry.

"Bagaya Road, what are you panicking about!"

When Kenichi Muto saw Ryuzo Ono, chief of staff of the 15th Brigade who was coming out of breath, he immediately said angrily.

Ono Ryusan pleaded guilty, but said hurriedly: "Your Excellency the division commander, our brigade commander sent a humble post to personally report that the main force of the brigade has suffered heavy casualties, and at present, with the more than 1,000 living forces directly controlled by the division commander, we are now less than 2,000 troops!" ”。

"The commander of this division knows! Let Kenichiro Yokogawa continue to attack, and he can't retreat. Once you retreat, the attacks in front are useless. The main force of the South Road has already advanced to attack Wei County, and it is not far from Wei County, as long as we hold on, fight our way out of the encirclement, and attack Wei County, we will be able to meet with the main force of the South Road Army immediately! ”

Kenichi Muto roared angrily, at this time, the attack on the breakthrough was already a question of whether it could be stopped, but a question of continuing the attack.

At this time, even if Kenichi Muto wanted to stop the offensive, it was no longer possible. There are not many remnants of the army, and they can only be annihilated by the opponent's general attack, and only in the breakthrough battle can they have a chance to escape.

At this time, Kenichi Muto already attached great importance to Li Yunlong. This time, it was the wild goose that was burned and miscalculated.

Seeing this, Ono Ryuzo could only smile bitterly and said, "Your Excellency the division commander, I'm afraid that there may not be much left of the people who broke through in the end." ”。

"There's no way around that, Ono-san. Execute the order! Otherwise, we can only be trapped in this unobstructed and undefended place, and we can only be annihilated by the other side in the end! ”

Kenichi Muto was also helpless at this time, this was not what Kenichi Muto should say, but in the current situation, even Kenichi Muto could only do so.

Although he had already ordered the main force of the Japanese army on the southern route under the command of Yamada Hiroshi to attack and advance towards Wei County, after capturing Wei County as soon as possible, it would be convenient to attack Li Yunlong's ambush troops from behind, so as to prevent them from breaking through.

However, Yamada Hiroshi telegraphed back and reported that on the way to the attack on Wei County, there were mines laid by the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army in ambush everywhere and the guerrilla firepower of the mountains and forests on both sides of the road, which greatly delayed the arrival of the Japanese troops on the southern route to Wei County.

Therefore, at this time, Yamada Hao already felt a little unfortunate about whether the main force of the Japanese army on the southern route could arrive at Wei County on time and seize Wei County after launching an attack.

So, for now, Kenichi Muto can only rely on himself.

"Haiyi, Your Excellency the Division Commander, I understand my humble duties."

Get! Kenichi Muto said so, and Ryuzo Ono was also helpless, so he could only pause his head heavily, and then quickly left, returned to the attacking team, and supervised the battle to break through.

At this time, Kenichiro Yokogawa, the commander of the 15th Brigade who was responsible for supervising the main force of the Japanese army on the North Road to break through, was already swarthy at this time.

The smoke of the artillery fire has already caused this old devil to be injured to varying degrees.

I saw Kenichiro Yokogawa standing behind the attack team, brandishing a katana and violently attacking the joint blocking position of the 3rd and 4th Battalions of the New 1st Regiment and a total of 3,000 guerrilla troops.

Because Kenichiro Yokogawa personally supervised the onslaught of the Japanese army, and Kenichiro Yokogawa was ruthless, ordering all the devil artillery shells to bombard less than 20 meters in front of the little devil's infantry, but in the more than ten minutes when he began to concentrate his forces to break through, he captured the second line of trenches held by the 3rd and 4th battalions of the new 1st Regiment.

It is a pity that due to the third battalion of the new regiment, the fourth battalion and other units of the ambush circle, the southern defensive positions are all crooked. It also made Yokogawa Kenichiro, who personally killed the position later, witness the defensive trenches of the new regiment, and even made Yokogawa Kenichiro scold the trenches built by the new regiment for being too cunning and too bullying.

The trenches of the new regiment were all built to a depth of at least two and a half to three meters, and all the fighters of the new regiment and the guerrillas hid in the trenches and opened fire on the incoming Japanese troops in front, stepping on the benches carried by the fighters themselves.

Otherwise, you can't stand in the trench and lie on the edge of the trench and shoot outside!

And before the devils reach the edge of the trench, the defenders have no way to continue to block it, so they can only retreat.

After retreating, the benches in the trenches will be taken away by each other. Once the devil troops led by Kenichiro Yokogawa jumped into the trenches, there was no way to continue attacking and advancing behind, and the communication trenches along both sides of the trenches to the back were blocked with things after the withdrawal of the defenders of the new regiment.

This hand suddenly made the unprepared devil charging team have no way to continue to attack and advance to the trenches behind.

And the devil soldiers who jumped into the trenches were smashed out by the new grenades smashed out of the trenches behind and exploded in the trenches, causing heavy casualties and losses.

With this defense, Kenichiro Yokogawa captured the second line of trenches held by the 3rd and 4th Battalions, but it was difficult for him to attack and advance to the rear. And hiding in the captured position, and being bombed by the artillery fire of the defenders, they fled in a hurry, and they were miserable.

"Bagaya Road, a cunning new group, cunning Li Yunlong! Baga Ya Road, Baga Ya Road! ”

Kenichiro Yokogawa saw with his own eyes how the captured New Regiment position was, and immediately cursed. But Kenichiro Yokogawa was then in a burst of panic, and the trenches were dug so deeply, indicating that the new regiment already knew the route of action of the Japanese army on the northern route.

Even if the other party did not know the route of action of the Japanese army on the North Road in advance, and judged it, this also shows that Li Yunlong's judgment is definitely very strong.

"Brigade commander, brigade commander! The division commander ordered, go on the offensive and not stop! ”

Ryuzo Ono, chief of staff of the 15th Brigade who rushed back, hurried back to see Kenichiro Yokogawa, who was scolding, and said anxiously.

Kenichiro Yokogawa smiled bitterly, "Ono-kun, I'm afraid we won't be able to break through this time." You see, how many more do we have now? Together with the 1,000 men and horses that the division commander directly controlled behind the rear hall to cover our breakthrough, it added up to only more than 2,000 people. It is impossible for this person to break through. ”

After a pause, Kenichiro Yokogawa pointed to the new defensive trenches under his occupation and said, "The opponent's trenches are dug so deep that there are no benches and other objects to support them, and it will be difficult for our soldiers to continue to climb out of the trenches and attack and break through even if they jump in!" ’

"Then brigade commander, are we going to die?" Ryuzo Ono smiled bitterly.

Yokogawa Kenichiro said helplessly amid the sound of gunfire: "We are soldiers of the empire, it is impossible to wait for death, according to the order of the division commander, let's continue to break through to the death!" ”。
