Chapter Seventy-Five: Parallel Advancement (Part 1)

Lei Jian ordered Wang Xiaoliang to command three mortars and open fire against the attacking squadron of Masao Kosaka, who rushed towards the little devil with a company.

The little devils of the Kosaka Masao squadron were suddenly hit by fierce artillery fire and machine guns, and suffered heavy casualties.

The soldiers of the first company followed the company commander Lei Jian, smashed into the enemy group, desperately killed the little devils, and went straight to the south city gate.

Fujiwara Koji saw that the attacking Tsuchihachi Road had been hit hard, and laughed loudly: "The Dohachi Road, who is not self-sufficient, dares to attack NH County, and I want to lure them all away, hahaha." ”

Before Fujiwara Koji Nakasa finished laughing, suddenly his position was hit by artillery shells and machine gun fire fired from the direction of the city.

The second and third companies of the 1st battalion outside the city found that the enemy's fire was weakening, and the soldiers shouted and charged towards the south gate.

Fujiwara Koji's troops were attacked by firepower from both sides, the devils used the makeshift fortifications to desperately counterattack, the firepower of the enemy and us was intertwined, the bullets flew sideways, and after an hour of fierce fighting, the little devils who reinforced the southern city gate retreated.

According to the predetermined plan, Luo Jinchuan led the second and third companies of the first battalion to break through to the center of the city.

Captain Kameda did not expect the firepower of the Eighth Route to be so ferocious, he mobilized his troops, relied on the fortifications in the center of the city, and launched a fierce resistance to the Eighth Route Army that broke through the city gate and rushed into the city.

Noda ran to Kameda and reported: "Report to Your Excellency, the Tsuchihachi Road that attacked the county seat is about a reinforced regiment, with a total strength of about 1,500 people, sufficient weapons and ammunition, and the Great RB Imperial Army has been lost in many places, so I still ask for reinforcements." ”

"Bastard, a regiment of Tubalu wants to capture the county town where one of my wings is stationed, jokes, big jokes, pass on my orders, order all groups of imperial soldiers, hold their positions and consume the enemy's weapons and ammunition, and wait for Tubalu to be tired and fight without bullets, and then attack with all their strength to destroy Tubalu in one fell swoop."

Kameda's battle plan was very insidious, once the independent regiment of the Eighth Route Army could not capture Ninghai City in time and fell into depth, it would be caught in the trap laid by Kameda, and it would be a fierce counterattack to wait for work.

Luo Jinchuan, the commander of the first battalion, led the second and third companies to attack the center of the county very smoothly, and found that a devil squad was fleeing in the north of the city, and he ordered the second company to quickly pursue and eliminate this devil team.

The soldiers of the second company pursued bravely, and they were about to catch up with the fleeing devils, when suddenly fierce gunfire came from behind them, and two devil squads appeared on the left and right flanks at the same time, surrounding the second company in a small street.

When the commander of the second company saw that he was surrounded, he nervously ordered loudly: "Quickly retreat back and join the third company and the first company." ”

At this time, the second company had penetrated into the encirclement carefully set up by the enemy, and it was impossible to break through the cage and rush out.

The little devil slowly closed the encirclement, and the second company commander commanded the soldiers to find a good hiding place on the spot, aiming at the little devil who came up and hitting it fiercely, intending to tear a hole and rush out to shake off the encirclement formed by the devil's firepower.

The little devil found that a company of earth eight roads was surrounded in the side street, and the eight road teams suppressed by fire were shrinking more and more, and the leader of the devil squadron brandished his command knife and roared arrogantly: "Warriors of the empire, earth eight roads have been surrounded, launch an attack, kill and give." ”

The second company launched several breakthroughs against the devils but failed to do so, and the strength of a company is now less than thirty, with heavy casualties, and seeing that the little devils were compressed into a courtyard, the commander of the second company ordered the instructor: "Lao Cong, I will leave a few soldiers to cover, and you lead the soldiers to rush out." ”

Instructor Cong ordered in turn: "I am the instructor, you are the company commander, it should be you who leads the soldiers to rush ahead, in order to leave a root for our second company, you take the soldiers to rush out quickly." ”

Company Commander Kong looked at Instructor Cong's resolute appearance, he really couldn't bear to leave so many soldiers here to die, under the cover of the instructor and more than a dozen soldiers, Company Commander Kong charged forward, and finally tore a hole and rushed out of the enemy's encirclement, and when he looked back, the enemy's encirclement closed again.

He could not just leave the instructor and a few fighters in the encirclement and become the enemy's lamb to be slaughtered. With a dozen fighters who rushed out, they killed again.

The enemy surrounded the second company, and at this time, the commander of the Kong company who broke through the encirclement rushed back from the outside, and under the joint attack from the inside and outside, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army inside were repeatedly strangled by the enemy, and there were only five soldiers left around Instructor Cong.

Instructor Cong found that Company Commander Kong, who had already broken out of the encirclement, and he scolded angrily: "Old Kong, you bastard are going to send the second company here, and you won't even leave any seeds, right?" You bastard. ”

Company Commander Kong smiled miserably: "Lao Cong, we are brothers, life and death together, let's prepare for the final fight together." ”

Besides, Lei Jian led a company, and did not directly enter the center of the city, but ordered five platoons to advance in parallel, and when the enemy was found in one place, the whole company would support.

Wang Xiaoliang's platoon, as the middle road of the whole company, accelerated and advanced under the leadership of Lei Jian.

Approaching an intersection, Lei Jian ordered to stop advancing, and waited for orders in concealment, he led a row of cautious people towards the intersection, and was about to enter the intersection quickly, when suddenly fierce gunfire rang out from the periphery, surrounding a row at the intersection.

Lei Jian curled his lips and scolded: "The cunning little devil, it seems that he has been prepared for a long time, just wait for the troops of the Eighth Route Army to take the bait, and then surround and annihilate them in one fell swoop." ”

He shouted an order to the back: "Each platoon catches the little devils in one direction, implements counter-encirclement, maneuvers and flexibly supports each other, and destroys this group of mongrels." ”

For a while, there was a loud gunfire at the crossroads, and the little devils who surrounded a row carried out a condescending fire attack on the platoon of the Eighth Route Army that walked into the crossroads.

Lei Jian gave an order to a platoon: "Retreat while fighting, lure the little devils to rush down from the walls and roofs, and then attack inside and outside to kill this group of pigs." ”

The two squads of the devils who carried out the encirclement attacked the encircled platoon from all sides, and saw that the platoon that was suppressed by the fire retreated step by step and wanted to break out of the encirclement, and the devil commander ordered to kill it and compress the eight roads to the crossroads to eliminate them.

Just when the little devils thought that they had successfully surrounded a platoon and carried out centralized encirclement and annihilation, fierce gunfire rang out behind the devils, and the little devils who hit each other could not take care of each other, and were surrounded by front and rear attacks, street by street.

The devil commander relied on being stationed in the county seat, and as long as he insisted, he would get reinforcements from the imperial army, but he couldn't imagine that this Eighth Route Army unit had excellent weapons and equipment, strong combat effectiveness, and flexible tactics.

This drill of breaking into the enemy's encirclement, luring the enemy out of concealment, exposing himself to firepower to carry out division and encirclement, and supporting each platoon to annihilate the enemy one by one, can be said to have played an experience in improving urban street fighting.

Lei Jian's company had just eliminated a devil with a defensive pocket, and the troops were not far forward, when a tongue of fire suddenly emerged from a big house, and the fire was quite fierce, hitting a row of sharp knives, and quickly lying on the ground to return fire.

Wang Xiaoliang dodged the dense bullets and quickly rolled to Lei Jian's side: "Company commander, the enemy's firepower is very fierce, it seems that there are two heavy machine guns and three or four light machine guns in it, there are at least fifty or sixty little devils, the troops are exposed to the guns, whether to attack or retreat, give me a word?" ”

"One platoon attacked covertly, and the other four platoons surrounded in a roundabout way, and ordered the three mortars that were captured, to bombard this big house, and immediately convey my order."

"Yes, company commander." The communicator jumped out and quickly rushed backwards to convey the company commander's order.

Lei Jian ordered Wang Xiaoliang: "Hearing the explosion of the first cannon, you take a platoon of two squads to attract enemy fire from the front, but do not take the initiative to attack so as not to cause large casualties." ”

He waved his hand and shouted, "Class 1 come with me." ”

Lei Jian held a machine gun, retreated into a small street, rushed into a house, followed by a group of soldiers, just stepped into the courtyard, and saw a man holding a guillotine, frantically pounced on Lei Jian who rushed in front.

While rushing to Lei Jian, he scolded: "Lao Tzu can't live, even if he dies, he will fight with you." ”

A soldier who followed closely beside Lei Jian, holding a rifle with a bayonet and was about to stab out, but Lei Jian was carried down by his shoulder, and the bayonet grazed and rushed over with a guillotine, and the man stabbed out in the side.

Lei Jian saw that the guillotine was about to slash on his head, and his body spun violently, and he didn't have time to stop the man, so he had to raise his leg and pop out his right foot violently, kicking the man in the lower abdomen.

The man couldn't bear the pain, 'kick, kick, stare 'three steps back', the guillotine in his hand fell to the ground, squatted down and covered his stomach with his hands, stared at the angry eyes and shouted: "You just kill me." ”

"This big brother, we are not little devils, nor are we puppet soldiers, we are the Eighth Route Army that came to attack the county seat." Lei Jian walked over and tried to pull the man up, but the man bent back with a stomachache and glared at Lei Jian in distrust.

Lei Jian didn't have time to say more to the man, only said: "You know, I just clicked to the end just now, if you use half of your strength, you will be kicked away, please get out of the way, we have to jump from your house to another household behind, the warriors outside me are fighting desperately with the little devil, I don't want to be delayed by you and lose more good brothers' lives." ”

The man didn't say anything, but rushed into the house, kicked open the back window, and shouted, "Eighth Route Soldier, please go out through the back window, and jump to the back of that house, and there is a very narrow alley, which can lead to the big house occupied by the little devil." ”

Lei Jian said with a warm heart: "Thank you, big brother." ”

"Don't be verbose, I'll show you the way." The man was the first to jump out of the window, and rushed into a narrow alley where only one person could walk, and it was more appropriate to say that it was an alley, rather than a narrow sandwich road.

In front of it was the big house, about four or five meters from the narrow mecca, and you would jump over it with a bounce.

Lei Jian looked at the big house that was spewing tongues of fire out, and the first group of soldiers were hidden in the narrow passage, they were waiting, waiting for the first explosion, and immediately began to move the fastest. 15203
