Chapter 344: Siege of Oshima (2)
Lei Jian issued orders to several company commanders around him through the correspondent Xiao Zhou, ordering the second, third, seventh, eighth, ninth, tenth, eleventh, and thirteenth companies of the enemy and puppet army to attack head-on, and the eight integrated companies to block the frontal attack and cooperate with the two wings, and to advance slowly in a fan-like manner, with the main goal of striking at the living forces of the enemy and puppet army.
Lei Jian prioritized the heavy weapons brought by the war horses, deployed heavy firepower in the south, as a frontal attack on the enemy's left flank, and aimed at artillery bombardment and heavy machine guns to block the enemy puppet army to break through to the south, once the blockade was frustrated, immediately retreated, let go of the enemy, and handed over to the four companies of the independent battalion that were ambushed three or four miles away in advance and led by Niu Dali, and packed up this little devil who fled back to the city.
Everything was carried out in the rapid deployment of defenses while fighting, and the arrangements were ready, Lei Jian issued the latest order on the battlefield, ordering a frontal attack to increase firepower, the right flank blocked the enemy puppet army fleeing north, and the left flank focused on hitting the command organ of the devil with the greatest heavy firepower, as long as the command organ of the devil was destroyed, this group of little devils would be easy to fight.
Lei Jian commanded the company that attacked the main force of the devil head-on, and the light and heavy weapons exerted the maximum firepower, knocked out the arrogance of the devil, and forced the devil to flee in the direction of the city.
Six mortars, seven heavy machine guns, 30 light machine guns, and more than a dozen rocket launchers, under the unified command, shells whistled down on the enemy group, light and heavy machine guns spat tongues of fire, rifles aimed at the little devils, and together they fired at the main force of the devils, and the little devils fled in all directions amid the sound of gunfire.
The commander of the devil, Oshima Hidemao Nakasa, was commanding seven or eight hundred enemy puppet troops to attack the Tsuchihachi Road on Fengwang Mountain, and he was about to occupy the position, and was suddenly hit by powerful firepower.
Seeing the shells, light and heavy machine guns, and dense rifle bullets, he frantically greeted his large army, causing him unbearable casualties, and Captain Oshima Hideshige shouted angrily: "Order all firepower to counterattack the Dohachi that is surrounded from four directions, and this powerful Dohachi force must be destroyed." ”
Oshima Hideshige Nakasa, judging that the main force of the Tsuchihachi Road, which was surrounded from all sides, should not exceed 1,000 people, this arrogant guy, he thinks that only the Imperial Army has the most powerful weapons and equipment, and the Tsuchihachi Road is just a group of rabble, and in the case of equal strength, it is simply impossible to match the Imperial Army.
He kept waving his command knife, and after a while pointed to the east and shouted: "The east is the main force of the Tu Eighth Road, destroy the enemy attacking from the east, and our troops will be able to kill the Tu Ba Lu on both flanks." ”
After a while, Oshima Hidemo Nakasa pointed to the south and ordered: "The firepower of the Shina troops in the south is weak, break through the fire resistance of the southern position, and quickly retreat." ”
Under the firepower of the Eighth Route Army on the east and south sides, the little devils not only did not push further after several counterattacks, but were forced to retreat step by step, and their positions were constantly shrinking, and they were surrounded by the Eighth Route Army.
Oshima Hidemao Nakasa saw that the firepower of the Eighth Route Army on the east, south, and north sides was very fierce, and it was impossible to break through at all, he brandished his command knife and pointed to Fengwang Mountain and ordered: "The firepower of the Tu Ba Lu position in Fengwang Mountain is weak, and I order all troops to capture the Feng Wang Mountain position on the Tu Eighth Road with maximum firepower, as long as the Fengwang Mountain position on the Eighth Route of the territory is firmly held and waiting for reinforcements, this Tu Ba Lu main force will definitely be completely wiped out." ”
There should be no problem with this order he issued, as long as the Japanese army sends a large number of troops to reinforce and encircle the Tuba Road here in time, not only can the enemy and puppet army be rescued, but also this branch of the army can be eliminated.
Oshima Hideshige ordered the operational staff officer to immediately send a report to the 13th Brigade of the Japanese Army stationed in Yantai, requesting rapid reinforcements.
The commander of the 13th Brigade of the Japanese Army, Hoshino Shusuke Brigade, was furious with the commander of the 73rd Kameda Wing, and he angrily reprimanded: "Kameda-kun, your wing is west of the Shahe River, and was beaten by the cavalry of an independent battalion of the Tuba Road, throwing off its armor and running around, and in the end it caused such a large number of casualties. ”
The chief of staff of the 13th Brigade excused Kameda and said: "General Hoshino, the commander of the Tubalu Cavalry, must be the little bastard of the Tubachi kid Lei Jian, as long as he is alive, the munitions, weapons and ammunition storage places of our Japanese troops will be unsafe at all times, my suggestion, to carry out the maximum force encirclement and suppression of this Tubalu independent battalion and cavalry team, and completely eliminate it, so that the area occupied by our Japanese can be peaceful." ”
"How can it be reasonable that a mere independent battalion and cavalry team of the Tsuchihachi Road will shake the safety of our 13th Brigade, which has achieved brilliant results, and order the organization of a capable Japanese squadron to follow the pursuit, and the 67th Tokugawa Wing and the 73rd Kameda Wing will follow closely behind, reinforce at any time, and once they are discovered, they will immediately encircle and destroy this Tubalu."
Captain Kameda said with some embarrassment: "General Hoshino, my 73rd Wing is fighting against Tuba Road in the west of the Shahe River, and the vitality of the troops has been damaged, do you want to rest for a few days before ......." ”
"Kameda-kun, your excuse is too unmilitary, at this time, the Tubalu Independent Battalion is in the Japanese-occupied area of Shahe, and at the same time it was surrounded and suppressed by your wing, and their troops, weapons and ammunition at this time have not been replenished in time, once this Tubalu army that can fight well is reorganized, at that time, it will be even more difficult to deal with, do you understand?"
Kameda Osa heard General Hoshino Shusuke say this, it seems that this time his wing, once again facing this cunning Shina half-grown boy and the Tuhachi Road Independent Battalion under his command, has no excuse to shirk.
He had no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "Your Excellency General, this kid of the Thunder Sword of the Eighth Road, this time my two wings will attack at the same time, and we will definitely eliminate this little bastard, my request, can I postpone it for three or five days before acting?" ”
At this moment, the commander of the operations division of the 13th Brigade hurriedly reported outside the door: "Report to General Hoshino, the commander of the Imperial Army stationed in Yecheng Hidemo Oshima Nakasa, and send an urgent telegram for help. ”
"Come in." The chief of staff of the brigade shouted to the outside world.
The chief of operations handed an urgent telegram to the chief of staff with both hands, and stood to the side looking at the face of the brigade commander.
The chief of staff of the brigade read the telegram and scolded angrily: "It's this little bastard Lei Jian again, this time he actually led a multi-regimental main force of the Tubalu to surround Oshima Hidemo Nakasa, and wiped out the imperial army and the imperial alliance army of nearly 1,000 people in the Tubalu base area, which is really hateful." ”
General Shusuke Hoshino frowned and looked at the chief of staff, and said in a stern tone: "Chief of staff, why don't you quickly inform the commanders here of the contents of the message, what are you waiting for?" ”
"Haiyi, Your Excellency General, the commander of the Imperial Army Yecheng sent an urgent telegram: Our Imperial Army and the Imperial Allied Army are nearly 1,000, intending to raid the Tuba Road base area, and they were besieged by the Tuba Road Independent Battalion or two regiments in Fengwang Mountain, and the Tuba Road Fire is fierce, and the situation of our besieged is urgent, so I ask the general to quickly send a large force to encircle and suppress."
General Hoshino tore through the telegram, looked at it twice, tore the telegram to pieces angrily, and scolded almost hysterically: "Bastards, a group of stupid pigs, nearly a thousand imperial troops and imperial allegorical troops, will be surrounded by a battalion of the Tsuchibalu Road, and they can't break through, it's a big joke and the biggest shame for the Japanese Imperial Army." ”
The air in the brigade war room suddenly became tense, and General Hoshino glanced at all the commanders at all levels who were standing at this time, shook his head and frowned and said fiercely: "You, are you still imperial soldiers?" You have all been harassed by the troops led by the bastard child of the Tuba Road Thunder Sword, and every time you engage in a battle with it, it will cause great casualties and losses, you say, Fengwang Mountain, which is far away on the west bank of the Shahe River and in the depth of the Tuba Road, how to urgently reinforce it? ”
The chief of staff borrowed a Chinese proverb: "Your Excellency, when you receive a telegram at this time, it is already 'far water cannot quench the thirst of the near', and the cunning Thunder Sword Commander of the Tsuchihachi Road, who can surround the troops of Hidemo Oshima with nearly 1,000 people with the main force of the Tsuchihachi Road, will definitely solve the battle in the shortest possible time, and will not wait for the reinforcements of the large forces of the imperial army to arrive, and the troops of Oshima will be completely annihilated." ”
"Chief of Staff, what do you mean?" Shogun Hoshino asked, wide-eyed.
The chief of staff of the brigade, Yanagi Shibei Lizheng, said: "General Hoshino, my proposal is to order Oshima Nakasa to break through on his own, and order Zhao Baoyuan and Zhang Buyun of the Ye and Laihuang Allied Forces to quickly reinforce to rescue the Oshima troops to break through. ”
Kameda heard Yagyu Jubei Chief of Staff say this, and he wrinkled his nose and just wanted to speak, but immediately shrank back,
His little action was immediately seen by the commander of the Hoshino Brigade, and he immediately reprimanded: "Kameda-kun, if you have something to say, then don't hide it, say it quickly." ”
At this time, the chief of staff of the Yagyu Ten Guards felt that Kameda's expression was a kind of contempt, and he not only asked sarcastically: "Kameda-kun, you don't want to be like this, may I ask if you have any good way to be rescued before the Oshima troops are wiped out by the Tsuchihachi?" ”
