"Company Commander Zhang, the regiment commander asked us to inform you of the past."

"What's going on up ahead?" Zhang Wei asked the signal soldier, just now he only heard the sound of gunfire and explosions, and he did not know the battle situation.

"The Japanese occupied a watchtower, and the second battalion died almost a hundred before it was defeated."

Zhang Wei ran forward with the people of the independent company, according to Chen Chunyi's usual style, he would not call himself unless it was urgent, and when Zhang Wei saw the towering watchtower and the corpses of the national army piled up around it, he understood that if his own people were there just now, he would not have been able to kill so many people if he had been hit with a grenadier just now.

No one cares about the corpses on the ground, and when the battle comes to this point, no one cares so much anymore, and there is no manpower at all, only a few stragglers search for weapons on the corpse of Paoze, and the lives of people in the troubled world are as cheap as dogs, not to mention these Qiu Ba, the death of many people is just a stroke on the roster.

"Independent company, run forward, catch up with the vanguard regimental headquarters."

Zhang Wei ran to the front with the independent company, Chen Chunyi and the 23rd regiment now need their own, to be precise, the fire support of grenadiers.

Seeing the end of the line, the officers and soldiers of the independent company consciously dispersed the formation, in order to guard the search state, Chen Chunyi walked behind the second battalion, and the independent company gradually followed up behind the second battalion, Zhang Wei's troops should contribute, but if they hooked the Japanese army to shoot, it would be too wasteful.

"I just ran into a watchtower, you also saw it, a lot of people died, if only your people were there"

"Commander Chen, just now I sorted out the troops, but I didn't keep up, so many brothers died in vain."

"It's okay, let's go." There was no blame in Chen Chunyi's words, after all, Zhang Wei was a friendly unit. In the distance, fierce gunfire was heard, and the troops of the 4th Division attacked from three directions, and this gunfire slowed the pace of the 23rd Regiment again. Going further, Zhang Wei's grenadier did not come in handy, there were no watchtowers, and there was no ambush.

After walking most of the street, still not encountering a devil, anyone will feel strange, the recruits dare to relax, rejoicing in their good luck, the veterans only feel that the atmosphere is weird, and the guns in their hands are held tighter.

Now, there is a street in front of Zhang Wei and the 23rd Regiment, but it is empty, most of the people have fled, the place that should be lively is quiet and scary, but from time to time a few ordinary people poke their heads out and look at the national officers and soldiers moving forward.

Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps from the houses on the left, and the soldiers raised their guns. Zhang Wei and Independence Company saw that there was a situation, so they quickly advanced forward with Chen Chunyi, and when they reached the front, they saw a middle-aged man in a black uniform running out of the house, wearing what seemed to be the uniform of the security regiment.

Zhang Wei and the others did not go to the front, the soldiers of the second battalion at the front arrested the man back, and the commander of the second battalion directly brought the person to Chen Chunyi for questioning for insurance.

"Who are you?"

"Boss, I'm a mine policeman, help, there are devils in it, our captain took us down, and the brothers didn't want to be poked in the back, so they ran out."

"Where is the devil? How many? ”

"Right there, to say the least, there must be twenty or sozen, in those houses." The mine policeman pointed to the houses around him.

"Second battalion commander, clean up the devils in these houses!" Chen Chun gave the order categorically.

"Yes!"

"Don't move, Captain, let's blow it up with a grenadier, at least to make the brethren die less." Zhang Wei asked Chen Chunyi. Chen Chunyi knew that Zhang Wei was doing this for the good of his people. Nodding, he ordered the second battalion commander to be on guard on the spot and suspend the operation.

The residential houses on the left, as a group of private houses, are not large, there are probably a dozen houses, very close to the troops of the 23rd Regiment, and the Japanese in it have not fired a shot until now, it is estimated that they want to bring in Chinese soldiers, and then use their quality advantages and geographical advantages to kill the Chinese army little by little.

Hmph, wishful thinking is a good fight, at first glance it is a devil who has not been bombed, subconsciously thinking that the small Chinese army does not have artillery, grenadiers and mortars, but unfortunately, they bumped into Zhang Wei today, this Japanese soldier is also unlucky enough, the mine policeman who just ran away, killed two and did not chase, as everyone knows, the mine policeman who ran out has already explained the situation 1510.

"Dong Erli, gather the grenadier groups of each infantry squad, but I will plow these houses again."

The infantry of the independent company was ready for battle, and the outermost Qiu Wei platoon automatically lay down and defended in the direction of the residential buildings, and at the same time prepared and covered for the concentrated firing of grenadiers, the second battalion was a little chaotic, but it was also deployed, and even farther forward, as soon as Zhang Wei's artillery stopped, they were about to rush in.

Under the command of Dong Erli, the grenadier groups of 12 infantry squads were gathered together and prepared under the protection of the infantry.

"The grenadiers in the first row, the pulleys are adjusted to one square."

"Two squares in the second row, three squares in the fourth row in the third row." Along with Dong Erli's password, another 12 grenadiers formed a fire network that had been formed, which was something that Dong Erli had figured out by himself, using his experience in using mortars and grenadiers. A few years later, when Dong Erli commanded an American-style 107-mm heavy mortar to bombard the Japanese army in Burma, the experience came from the practice of Zaozhuang.

According to the order of the fire net, the first platoon opened fire, followed by the second, third, and fourth platoons, and 12 grenades smashed on the houses in an orderly manner, wantonly destroying the Japanese stronghold. When the echelon shooting was completed, Dong Erli came with another volley.

As a result of such an explosion, some of the houses have collapsed. The Japanese troops who were hidden everywhere did not make a sound, but in fact there were casualties a long time ago. Some were injured by the explosion, and some were smashed.

"Charge!" The commander of the second battalion gave the order to charge, and the main attack company converted the team into a platoon-level column, and entered the houses along the street......

There were bursts of gunfire inside, Zhang Wei stood outside, this kind of battle is basically to win the attack and defense, it is very simple, the Japanese army has too few troops, not to mention that it was bombarded by grenadiers, and the national army can also pile him to death even if he uses people.

In fact, the troops of the second battalion were really piling up corpses, cleaning up house by house, squad by platoon, and sometimes being ambushed by Japanese light machine guns, and the battle lasted for half an hour, and with the explosion of a grenade, the second battalion finally solved the remnants of the enemy.

A corporal with a light machine gun and rifle blocked a platoon of the 2nd Battalion and knocked down nearly 20 Nationalist soldiers.

By the time the attack force of the second battalion came out, the attack force of one and a half companies had only a hundred people left......
