Chapter 391: Cavalry Outflanking

The defensive positions of the 600th Regiment collapsed under the all-out attack of the Japanese army, and the defensive positions of the two battalions were all broken through, and the battle turned into hand-to-hand combat.

In the front-line defensive position, the soldiers of the 600 regiment fought together with the Japanese troops who rushed up, the Japanese army had excellent stabbing skills, but the number was insufficient, while the 600 regiment had more people but more recruits, and the two armies were consumed together.

However, the overall battlefield situation was developing in a direction favorable to the Japanese army.

After breaking through the position of the 600th regiment, the attacking Japanese brigade continued to increase its troops in order to achieve the goal of expanding the breakthrough.

"Kill!"

A veteran of the 600th Regiment slammed a rifle with a grenade launcher down.

A grenade smashed into the head of the Japanese soldier in front of him, bursting with blood, and there were four or five corpses of the national soldier around.

At the same moment, a bayonet of the 38th rifle also penetrated the abdomen of the veterans of the 600th regiment.

On the entire battlefield, there are many similar scenes, the two sides fought to the death, and the soldiers of the 600th Regiment started a real fight with the Japanese army for the first time, and the recruits suffered a lot in hand-to-hand combat.

The veteran supervised the battle on the side, and only then did he barely retreat, and exchanged his life for the position.

After the Japanese landed in Qinzhou Bay, they also ushered in the fiercest resistance for the first time, and after the previous battle developed to the stage of stabbing and stabbing, the Chinese defenders were about to collapse, and the Chinese soldiers who were fighting against them today were still able to hold on.

Almost all of the main positions in Ertang were caught in hand-to-hand combat.

Shao Yizhi, the commander of the 600th Regiment, saw that the situation was critical and had to go into battle in person.

In order to reinforce the front-line positions, he sent all the reserves out and personally led an infantry company to reinforce the first-line positions.

Shao Yizhi, commander of the 600th Regiment, with more than 100 troops, made a detour from the left flank of the main position, and the troops directly under the regiment headquarters and senior officers also went down to the position to participate in the command operation.

"Up!"

Shao Yizhi took a rifle, fired a shot at the front-line position in hand-to-hand combat, and led an infantry company to copy it.

"Kill!" From the left flank of the 600 regiment's position, there was an earth-shattering shout of killing.

The regiment commander took the lead in the charge, the soldiers didn't have to say, they followed Shao Yizhi and rushed up, a whole company of infantry reinforced the first-line position of the 600 regiment from the left flank, many Japanese soldiers were still in hand-to-hand combat, and they were suddenly attacked, and there was not enough time to react.

The morale of the defenders on the position of the 600th Regiment was greatly boosted, and they fought together with the men and horses led by the regiment commander Shao Yizhi, cleared the Japanese troops who rushed into the position and counterattacked the Japanese troops near the position.

The battle was extremely fierce, the regiment commander with a rifle and a bayonet acted as a combat soldier and played with the Japanese army, and Shao Yizhi personally killed several Japanese soldiers.

The morale-boosting defenders of the position finally stabilized the crumbling position, and the dozens of Japanese troops who rushed into the position were all knocked out, except for a few who ran out.

Inside and outside the position, the Japanese left a large number of corpses, and when they withdrew from the position, they were pursued by the fire of the defenders of the 600th regiment, and the casualties were not small.

The defenders also paid a heavy price, and the company led by Shao Yizhi for reinforcements suffered nearly forty casualties.

Although the Japanese retreated, they did not withdraw, but organized fire suppression and platoon firing dozens of meters away from the position, and fired at the defenders of the 600th regiment.

Drove the Japanese out, Shao Yizhi, the commander of the 600th Regiment, did not pursue but tried to stabilize his position and stabilize the defensive line.

"Order the rest of your battalion to enter the position to assist in the defense, don't mess up, this company I brought also joined the defense line of your battalion, and you must hold the position!"

Shao Yizhi commanded a captain covered in blood in the trench with a rifle.

The front-line positions were fiercely fought, and the commander of the reinforced battalion was killed in the battle, and now the acting commander is a company commander.

Shao Yi knew that it was impossible to counterattack with this strength, and the only thing he could do was to maintain the current situation and strengthen the defense.

"Yes!"

The acting company commander immediately went down to organize the defense of the troops and accepted the reinforcements brought by Shao Yizhi.

In the front-line positions that had just been restored, except for some veterans and organized recruits who were shooting at the Japanese army, the remaining hundreds of people had just finished hand-to-hand combat and firepower pursuit, and had not yet completed the transition between attack and defense.

What Shao Yizhi and the company commander have to do at present is to organize them, do a good job in defensive work, and consolidate their positions.

Due to the counterattack of the 600th Regiment, the situation of the entire Ertang defense line has been alleviated, and the whole body is moved by the line, and the defense is also the same reason, and the 600th Regiment's all-round desperate counterattack has been exchanged for the safety of the entire defense line.

The infantry brigade, which was engaged with the 600 regiments, could not have imagined that the onslaught would not knock out the defensive positions of a single regiment of the Chinese army.

In the past, it was usually the divisional units of the Chinese army that fought against the brigade, but today, it is in front of the Chinese infantry regiment of more than 2,000 people.

The Ertang position was fought twice, and the Japanese attacked it, but both were counterattacked by the 600th Regiment.

The grenadiers, grenades, and rifle machine guns fired at each other, and the Japanese troops attacking the position of the 600 regiments finally withdrew.

To this day, Ertang is still firmly in the hands of the defenders of the 600th Regiment.

At present, in the entire Binyang area of Nanning, only Ertang is engaged in large-scale fighting, and the infantry brigade that is fighting has reported all kinds of intelligence and battle conditions to the brigade headquarters step by step.

Masao Nakamura, commander of the 21st Brigade, was shocked that he had not encountered such fierce and stubborn resistance since landing in Qinzhou.

After the two attacks, the total number of Japanese casualties exceeded 200, and the number of dead was more than 100, and a large amount of ammunition was consumed.

After the battle stopped, Masao Nakamura clarified the situation of his opponent after investigating battlefield information.

It was not the Guangxi Local Army that fought with them, but the main force of the Central Army, numbered as the 600th Regiment of the 200th Division.

Several setbacks made the Japanese troops attacking the Ertang position adjust their tactics again.

Under the communication and contact of Nakamura Masao and the front-line troops, the 21st Brigade contacted the 5th Cavalry Wing of the 5th Division nearby, and asked them to cooperate with the infantry troops attacking Ertang to carry out an outflanking and roundabout attack.

The 5th Field Artillery Wing also sent troops to reinforce the 21st Brigade and strengthen the firepower.

The 5th Cavalry Wing responded quickly, sending two cavalry squadrons and a cavalry artillery squadron to move quickly.

Behind the side of the Ertang position, three or four hundred Japanese cavalrymen riding Oriental horses quickly took this place as the target and made a detour.

The cavalry wing is not a combat cavalry in the traditional sense, but a mounted infantry that uses horses as vehicles and masters all infantry combat techniques.

The combat method is also to fight on horseback, and infantry offensive and defensive tactics are the mainstay, but traditional cavalry skills, such as charging, sabre batch slashing, and slashing, are also possible.

The cavalry squadron was equipped with Type 38 carbines and Type A 32 sabers, and the cavalry squadron was issued with Type 41 75mm cavalry guns for cavalry.

The main force of the Fifth Division moved closer to the Ertang position held by the 600th Regiment, and the officers and men of the 600th Regiment were still reinforcing their positions at this time.
