Chapter 268: Outflanking!

It's just that it's too late, and the commander of the third company of the first battalion of the Imperial Allied Army has just finished shouting, and on the slopes of the higher wings on both sides, many muzzles of guns suddenly tilted downward one by one to aim.

"Da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da!"

Pleasant Czech light machine guns, the left and right flank positions, poured hot bullets on the puppet soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the 3rd Regiment of the Imperial Allied Army, who had burst into the unpreparedness.

The Czech light machine gun is known as a light machine gun with good shooting accuracy, it is a machine gun with a caliber of 7.92 mm, a gauge range of 1500 meters, and the biggest feature of the appearance is that the 20-round loading magazine is above the gun body. This light machine gun has a good shooting accuracy and is heavily equipped in the new regiment.

In this attack, Li Yunlong specially allocated eight Czech light machine guns to block the strong attack of the superior Japanese forces with firepower. In the current terrain conditions, the unalert puppet soldiers entered the intersecting fire network, and were instantly hit by the fire of Czech light machine guns.

Angry bullets poured out towards the soldiers of the Imperial Army, and the screams were endless!

The protruding forward positions on both sides blocked the puppet soldiers who entered the mountain road in the middle of the small basin, and the machine gun fire fired rapidly, and the puppet soldiers who hit them suffered heavy casualties in an instant.

Many puppet soldiers fought back in a hurry, but under the crossfire net, the two devils of the third regiment and one battalion of the puppet army were beaten at this time, and they spread their feet one by one and withdrew in the direction of the attack.

Countless corpses were left behind along the way, and the new regiment of soldiers who were ambushed on the dirt slopes on both sides were howling wolf and shooting one by one, and some machine gun shooters had several gun barrels replaced.

"Boom, boom!" The puppet army was not only subjected to cross-fire from Czech light machine guns, but also by the shelling of Wang Chengzhu's five mortars, and the battlefield was screaming. Of course, most of the puppet soldiers screamed.

At this time, Kentaro Sugihara, who supervised the attack of the puppet army, was watching the puppet army attack the depths of the entrance of the small basin with his waist crossed, and he was happy for less than half a minute, when suddenly the guns and cannons roared inside, and then the screams of the puppet soldiers followed.

"Baga Ya Road! Damn it! Order the artillery squad, cover the shooting! Hurry up and drop! At this time, there were two Japanese Type 92 infantry guns in the Japanese puppet army that followed the pursuit, but they fell behind, after all, there was a lot of snow in winter at this time, and the road was difficult to walk.

Kentaro Sugihara scolded and ordered the mortar troops carried in it to start shelling to cover the retreat of the puppet army, but the puppet army that withdrew from behind, and the losses after some counting made Kentaro Sugihara feel deeply uneasy!

"Your Excellency Shaozuo, the three regiments and one battalion of the Imperial Cooperative Army, there are less than 300 people left who can come back alive this time, and in less than five minutes of attack just now, they were bombarded by the crossfire network and artillery fire of the Chinese army, killing more than 200 people! Right now, the three regiments and one battalion of the Imperial Association Army are already demoralized and timid! I'm afraid I can't go on the offensive anymore! A minute or two later, Ryota Tomita, who personally counted the losses, reported to Kentaro Sugihara in a low voice!

"Nani? Losing so much? Kentaro Sugihara said with a frown.

Although there is no pity for the cannon fodder troops of the Imperial Army, the Imperial Army is the vanguard of the Japanese attack, if the cannon fodder troops consume too much, in addition to affecting the morale of the Imperial Army, once the cannon fodder is consumed, then the Japanese soldiers need to go into battle in person.

And Sugihara Kentaro stood on a snow-covered dirt slope, holding a telescope to clearly observe the terrain of Zhou Hua's blocking position, under this kind of terrain conditions, although Zhou Hua's troops are small, only more than 100 people, but firmly hold the two flank positions, can withstand the onslaught of 20,000 Japanese troops.

Kentaro Sugihara has fought many battles, how can he not know this kind of blocking position, even if his Sugihara infantry brigade is all pulled up to attack, I am afraid that even if all the troops of his brigade are defeated, it will not be able to break through in a short time.

At this time, after the first battle, there were no more than 200 people in the third regiment and one battalion of the Imperial Army, and the cannon fodder of the puppet army was consumed too quickly, no!

Ryota Tomita answered the sentence and continued to say solemnly: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, the morale of the third regiment and one battalion of the puppet army is already strong!" Now that we are continuing to attack, we are afraid that we will not gain more than we lose! What to do? ”。

When Kentaro Sugihara heard this, he looked at the two devil soldiers of the third regiment and one battalion of the Imperial Allied Army who had withdrawn in a hurry.

Although Kentaro Sugihara did not care about the lives of the soldiers of the Imperial Allied Army, if he attacked like this at this time, I am afraid that it would cause dissatisfaction among the Imperial Allied Army.

After some pondering, Kentaro Sugihara waved his hand and said: "At this time, it is impossible to attack by detour, and Li Yunlong's main force is probably already in the mountain at this time!" Immediately send a report to His Excellency Commander Yoshio Shinozuka and inform us of the situation! In addition, we will contact the fighters of the Air Wing that have returned to the air and support us in the air immediately! ”。

"Ha Yi, Your Excellency Shao Zuo! By the way, Your Excellency, do you want to go on the offensive now? Ryota Tomita hesitated for a moment, but continued.

Kentaro Sugihara picked up the binoculars and saw that the blocking positions of Zhou Hua's headquarters on both wings at the entrance of the small basin not far away were crowded, and his face was gloomy.

"Two minutes later, the grenadier squadron and the mortar squadron attacked sharply to cover the attack of the second battalion of the third regiment of the Imperial Allied Army. The 1st Infantry Squadron was dispatched to follow the 2nd Battalion of the 3rd Regiment of the Imperial Allied Army to attack! Let's see! Order the mortar squadron, be sure to suppress the artillery fire of the Chinese army! Kentaro Sugihara thought about it and waved his hand and ordered.

Tomita Ryota immediately paused and said, "Ha Yi, Your Excellency Shaozuo, I understand my humble position!" ”。

Kentaro Sugihara's troops began to attack for the second time, using a squadron of devils and a battalion of puppet troops, six or seven hundred people attacked Zhou Hua's department, the artillery rumbled, and the machine guns fired at each other.

Soon, the second mixed attack of the Japanese puppet army organized by Kentaro Sugihara failed, and the soldiers of a company under the personal command of Zhou Hua suffered considerable losses, with a total loss of more than 80 Japanese puppet soldiers.

"Baga Ya Road! Damn it! The terrain is not in my favor! Kentaro Sugihara smashed his fist into a seven-meter-tall tree with the thickness of his legs, and the snow on the tree fell scattered, making Kentaro Sugihara embarrassed for a while.

The chief of staff of the brigade on the side, Ryota Tomita, had already sent a report to the headquarters of the Japanese First Army in Taiyuan City at this time, and had just returned, and he smiled when he saw Kentaro Sugihara's appearance, but he still reported in time: "Your Excellency Shaozuo, Your Excellency Commander Shinozuka has called back and ordered us to attack with all our strength, and we can't get rid of the traces of the main force of Li Yunlong's department!" Reinforcements from all over the country have outflanked Yangxing, Huangzhai, Da'an, Shouyang, Dingxiang and other places! ”。
