689. Drill into the Dead

Now that the two armies have collided together, the Japanese army has completely lost its advantage in firepower, and can only enter the hand-to-hand combat of the barbaric era of cold weapons.

The commander of the 59th Wing, Nasu Daisa, did not have time to sigh, but fortunately, the troops seized several small heights nearby and a village called Gangzhai at a critical moment.

Therefore, although the troops in front were scattered, it was fortunate that there were these temporary positions, as long as the troops and firepower were immediately deployed, they could still have a battle with the superior Chinese soldiers in numbers.

As long as you hold it here for half a day, the 27th Brigade, the main force on the Yellow River in the direction of Lanfeng, will send rescue troops, and then you can kill the Chinese soldiers and counterattack, and it is not certain who wins and who loses.

And behind the Seventh Company of the Three Dogs, the Ninth Company of the Third Battalion also followed, and when they were about to end up with those tank soldiers and the devil machine gunners who had no time to escape, they were stopped by Liu Guangyu, the commander of the Third Battalion.

"Ge Laozi, don't stop, rush in with the Seventh Company."

The Ninth Company did not stop, and immediately rushed in with the butt of the Seventh Company, even if Lao Liu had a vision, he took the people of the Ninth Company to protect the flank of the Seventh Company, so that the lone army would not go deep and be surrounded in a short period of time.

And those devil soldiers who didn't have time to escape were very surprised to see a large number of Chinese soldiers passing by them at this moment, ignoring them, which was very strange.

The infantry combatants of the Japanese army were quite strong, and the devil infantry, who had no time to escape at this time, pretended to be calm in groups of several people, back to back, in small circles, waiting for the battle, in order to save their lives.

As for those tank soldiers, who rarely fought hand-to-hand combat, saw a large number of Chinese soldiers holding bright bayonets and pressing over, their legs were weak, and they knelt down one by one, begging for mercy and surrendering.

And the troops of the 305th Regiment who followed up later, regardless of whether they were technicians or not, whether they wanted to stay or not, they were all stabbed, either stabbed to death or hacked to death.

Don't surrender troops, Lao Tzu doesn't have time to pay attention to you soldiers, you are clean when you die.

And those devils who formed a small circle were surrounded by more Chinese soldiers, and the two sides began to fight in ping-pong.

The onslaught of the 7th Company broke several of the enemy's improvised positions, and the Japanese were so anxious that they had to mobilize large forces to intercept this desperate force.

If this force is allowed to rush, it is estimated that it will be able to break out of a crossing, rush through the entire position of the devils, and rush to the other end.

On the other hand, it was also very lively, and the 88th Division also broke into the Japanese position, and tens of thousands of soldiers were charging and fighting in the entire three or four square kilometers of position.

The three dogs and the seventh company were finally intercepted by the devil's army, and the two sides had to fight in the hinterland of the Japanese position.

"Steady, don't rush again, don't rush to kill the enemy."

Sangou conveyed the order to the other platoon commanders in a timely manner, people are not machines, after rushing for so long, everyone is out of breath, and at this moment they have to fight with the devils who are waiting for them, and they can't bear it physically.

Therefore, Sangou immediately ordered that he was not in a hurry to kill the enemy, and now although he could not break through the enemy's position as he wished, and could not divide the large forces of the Japanese army, he was able to rush into the hinterland, which was relatively successful.

Now the Japanese army was in a hurry, not the Chinese army, so the 7th Company and the 9th Company, which arrived later, hurriedly carried out group defense, several people in small groups, surrounded by some small circles, forming a large circle, and defending together.

The 7th and 9th companies that rushed in were the enemy's henchmen, and this place was the central and important place of the Japanese army's position, so how could this Chinese army survive.

Keeping this group of Chinese soldiers alive is tantamount to announcing the death of the Japanese army, and now it has reached the point of life and death where either you die or I live.

Therefore, the Japanese army concentrated the reserve troops of nearly a brigade and began a lifeless assault on the 7th and 9th companies.

If it were an ordinary Chinese army, the impact of a large group of Japanese infantry would be difficult for even a regiment to withstand, but now that they have encountered the 51st Division, they are dumbfounded.

The 7th and 9th companies also learned the defensive techniques of the Japanese army's desperate stabbing, and the cooperation within the group and the cooperation between the group and the group were carried out in an orderly manner, and they could not rush in at once despite the desperate impact of the Japanese army.

Just when the two sides were inseparable, the troops of several other battalions of the 305th Regiment also slowly cleared out some stubborn enemies on the periphery of this assault direction, and gradually approached the Seventh Company and the Ninth Company.

"Pull in!"

The three dogs shouted at the three platoons, and the three platoons were relying on the direction of the main force of the 305th Regiment, and everyone moved hard in this direction together, squeezing the Japanese troops in this direction into a thin defensive line.

The two sides attacked again vigorously, and soon this thin line of defense was broken, and a large number of Chinese soldiers, like a tide, poured into the center of the main Japanese position.

In less than ten minutes, the fighters of a main infantry regiment, several thousand people, all rushed into the hinterland of the main position of the 59th Wing of the Japanese Army.

The Japanese army was like a thin man with a big belly, and a lot of things were packed in his stomach, which made his defense line even weaker.

If this continues, this thin belly will be broken into thousands of holes.

The 59th Wing Nasu Daisa had to pass on the order, shrink the troops, and retreat to several positions with favorable terrain, and several brigades held two small heights and the middle Gangzhai Village.

Seeing that the devil was shrinking and retreating, the 51st Division and the 88th Division were pressing step by step, not to mention that the current follow-up troops have followed, and it is the devil who knows the current affairs, otherwise it will soon be divided into pieces by tens of thousands of people in the two divisions, and there will be no left.

In this short period of half an hour, the devils desperately dug fortifications on two small heights and dug out several trenches.

Gangzhai Village is also surrounded by foxholes, machine gun nests, and communication trenches that connect them.

I didn't expect the devil to defend with all his might, Sangou looked at these rapid prototyping fortifications from a distance, and sighed in his heart.

Now that the main forces of the two divisions had compressed the Japanese into this last position, the Seventh Company was told not to attack rashly for the time being.

After all, the devils in this position have already occupied a favorable terrain, and they can not only condescendingly project firepower on small heights, but also form crossfire, plus the firepower around the village, they can form a three-dimensional firepower covering the attack from far and near.

If you attack rashly now, it will not be the charge before receiving the enemy, at that time the Japanese army was not ready, and the firepower was not matched with personnel and was not reasonably distributed, so the Chinese army could have an opportunity.

Now it's different, with the firepower of an infantry wing of the Japanese army, it can penetrate the infantry charge of a Chinese division, and there are no thousands of casualties, and it can't be taken at all.

No foolish division commander would not cherish his own soldiers like this, so the 51st and 88th divisions temporarily stopped attacking, formed an encirclement of the Japanese army, and began to use various terrain to set up temporary positions to prevent the devil and dog from jumping over the wall and escaping.

The devil does not have the urgency to jump off the wall in a hurry, and Nasu Daisa relied on the four 92 rifles brought by the artillery squadron in his wing, as well as dozens of heavy machine guns from the machine gun squadron.

There are also nearly three infantry brigades, and it is still believed that they will not be broken by tens of thousands of Chinese soldiers in a short time, although the Chinese army now is the most powerful force seen in China for the first time.
