Chapter 776: The Sound of Swords and Guns Clashing (2)
In an instant, the sound of swords and guns colliding, the fierce shouts of the soldiers, and the wails of the devils were mixed together, some soldiers fought with the enemy, strangled the little devils alive with both hands, and some soldiers brandished big knives, as if entering a no-man's land, and saw the devils waving machetes, it was a burst of slashing.
Some warrior bayonets were inserted into the chest of the devil, pushed forward fiercely, and hit the rock, and the heart-cold bayonet was bent, and the soldiers stepped on the little devil, and suddenly pulled the bent bayonet out of the devil's body, and threw the flesh and blood out of it, and killed another little devil.
Some soldiers were in a hurry, and they didn't have time to stab the devil who rushed up, picked up the butt of the gun and smashed it on the devil's skull, and with a 'bang', the little devil's brain burst and fell to the ground.
The only regiment of the Jin-Cha-Ji Military Region of the Eighth Route Army, for the first time since its establishment, gathered the strength and firepower of the whole regiment to launch the most difficult and dangerous battle with the enemy.
After more than an hour of life-and-death fighting, when the sky was completely dark, the only group of soldiers finally repelled the most ferocious attack of the devils, and the devils who were still alive fled down the mountain in panic.
So far, the only regiment fought fiercely with the enemy for three days and three nights on the Iron Camel Mountain, and the continuous rain for three consecutive days brought great inconvenience to the soldiers.
The little devil who fled down the mountain in the twilight did not withdraw from the battlefield, but under the cover of night, hid in the woods near the 1st battalion of Zhang Ting on the left flank, waiting for an opportunity to launch an attack, cut off the connection between the 1st battalion and the only regiment in the main position, and seize the position of the 1st battalion in one fell swoop with superior forces.
Lei Jian arranged to go out, and took advantage of the night to follow the reconnaissance squad behind the retreating devils, and returned to report the conspiracy of the Japanese army, Lei Jian ordered the fourth and fifth companies of the second battalion to approach behind the devils in concealment, and cooperate with Zhang Ting's first battalion to crush the enemy's detour to the side and back, in an attempt to launch an attack.
Wang Kui, deputy battalion commander, and Guo Qiang, commander of the fifth company, each led a part of the fifth company to move rapidly in three battle formations, and soon approached behind the enemy hiding in the woods.
Guo Qiang, the commander of the fifth company, led a platoon to approach the hidden enemy, was discovered by the enemy, and was immediately sniped by the enemy. β
Song Zhida, the commander of the second battalion, led the fourth company, and was groping forward in the night, when suddenly three or four hundred enemies were killed in the woods, and with the tactics of dispersion and encirclement, he quickly outflanked a section of the fourth company.
The enemy quickly surrounded the enemy with superior forces, and the battalion commander Song Zhida shouted to Huang Dabao, the commander of the fourth company: "Order the soldiers of the fourth company to rush and kill the encircled enemy with the most fierce firepower." β
Huang Dabao, the commander of the fourth company, waved his pistol, gave an order, and took the lead in leading more than 100 soldiers to kill the enemy group, and a battle under the night began.
The enemy's fire was very fierce, a row of bullets swept over, several soldiers in front were shot and fell, and the soldiers behind pounced without hesitation, and the sound of gunfire exploded for a while, and the shouts of life and death with the enemy resounded through the valley.
Company Commander Huang Dabao, who was leading the soldiers to rush ahead, was suddenly shot in the chest, he paused suddenly, waved his pistol and continued to kill the enemy, another bullet hit the head of the Huang Company Commander, he shook and shouted: "Rush up, kill, kill ghosts, devilsββγ Huang Lian Chang slowly fell to the ground and never got up again.
Three or four hundred enemies launched a siege, bullets whistling around the soldiers, the soldiers were not afraid, but even more aroused the pride of killing the enemy, they held their guns to kill the little devils, and at the same time shouted: "Avenge the sacrifice of the Huang Company Commander, kill the devilsββγ β
The first battalion of Zhang Ting, the left flank position, the first part of the fifth company of the second battalion led by deputy battalion commander Wang Kui, and the platoon led by Guo Qiang, the commander of the fifth company, saw that the fourth company led by the second battalion commander was engaged in a fierce battle with three or four hundred enemies, and immediately threw themselves into the battle against the enemy.
The devil commander originally wanted to rely on the cover of the night, quietly surround with superior forces, and sneak attack the left flank position of the first battalion, but as soon as the encirclement was formed, he was attacked by the second battalion commander Song Zhida and the fourth company led by Song Zhida, who was killed.
Under the combined fire of the 1st and 2nd Battalions, the devils who attacked at night were counter-encircled, and the enemy was hit by fierce fire when the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army bravely shouted and killed.
The commander of the devil saw that the big thing was not good, and ordered the Japanese soldiers who were fighting to quickly withdraw from the battle.
The devils who withdrew from the battle in a panic, left behind the corpses of nearly 100 Japanese soldiers, fled in a hurry, and soon drowned in the night in the distance, and fled back to Quyang City.
In the early morning of the next day, the commander of the 576th Wing of the Japanese Army, Hetun Dazuo, gathered more than 1,000 devils, and under the cover of air fighters, they slaughtered the Iron Camel Mountain with great momentum, and its purpose was to destroy the only Lei Jian Regiment of the Iron Camel Mountain at all costs, occupy this Zhengtai Road and Shibao Highway, and lay a nail for the Japanese army in this triangle to ensure the transportation safety of Zhengtai Road and Shibao Highway.
Lei Jian held the binoculars and saw an arrogant Japanese army coming from the direction of Quyang, and he guessed that this devil army should be the main force of the Japanese army attacking Tiehuo Mountain mentioned in the telegram of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region Headquarters.
He has already realized that today's battle on Iron Camel Mountain will be very tragic, the enemy's main force is dispatched, and the enemy will definitely send fighter planes to assist in the battle in the air on both sides of the enemy, and Lei Jian must do a good job in the latest deployment of Iron Camel Mountain in the air and on the ground, and at the same time it will be attacked by Japanese firepower.
Lei Jian said to Ma Mingshan: "Political Commissar Ma, Iron Camel Mountain is going to start the fiercest battle with the enemy in the air and on the ground, for the safety of the regimental organs and directly subordinate departments, as well as the seriously wounded, you lead them to immediately evacuate the main peak of Iron Camel Mountain and retreat to the deep mountain." β
He also redeployed the positions of the main battalions, and ordered the first battalion of the single regiment to hold the position on the left flank of the mountain, the second battalion to accept the right flank position of the cavalry battalion, the third battalion to hold the main position on the iron camel mountain, and the fourth battalion to act as a reception team directly under the regiment to retrieve the light and serious wounded from the battlefields at any time and move them to a safe place where the regimental organs had evacuated in a timely manner.
The two cavalry units of the cavalry battalion and the reconnaissance company were ordered to go around behind the enemy's 576th Wing, adopt mobile and flexible tactics of engaging the enemy, change places with one shot, contain the enemy's main force, and cooperate with the infantry battalions of Tiehuo Mountain to crush the enemy's attack.
Order the special service company and assault company to quickly move to the flank of the main force of the Japanese army attacking Tiehuo Mountain, harass and pinn down, lure the enemy to divide the troops to pursue, shake off the enemy and bite again, and reduce the pressure of the enemy's strength and firepower on the main position.
The artillery company was ordered to withdraw from the battlefield, retreat with the regimental organs, and protect the safety of the regimental organs, departments directly under the regiment, and the seriously wounded.
Lei Jian led the guard platoon to rush to the bottom of the mountain, inspected the pre-battle preparations of the various units, and made corrections one by one, so as to make use of the topography of the position as much as possible to protect themselves against the enemy to the greatest extent.
The Japanese army attacked the main force of Tiehuo Mountain, and quickly advanced to Tiehuo Mountain, and at this time, the first and second battalions hidden in the positions on both flanks of the mountainside were ready to wait for the enemy to enter the ambush circle before launching the most fierce fire strike.
The arrogant little devils frantically pounced on the Iron Camel Mountain, and more than 1,000 devils, relying on excellent weapons and elite troops with high combat quality, did not take the only regiment that had been attacked many times and was stationed on the Iron Camel Mountain in their eyes.
Hetun Dazuo said to the chief of staff: "In this attack on Tiehuo Mountain, under the fire of air fighters, with the powerful ground offensive of our 576th Wing, the only regiment of the enemy Lei Jian who is firmly entrenched in Tiehuo Mountain will definitely be wiped out. β
"What Hetun Jun said is very reasonable, a regiment on Tuba Road, after many strikes, is already in a desperate struggle, under the powerful firepower of our Imperial Japanese Army in the air and ground, it should be effortless to eliminate the only regiment of Lei Jian." The chief of staff of the devil Koizumi Jiro said complimentingly.
"Shout, order the vanguard to immediately launch a strong attack on the main position of the Eighth Route Army on Tiehuo Mountain, you quickly contact the commander of the Yoshimaru Brigade, when can the fighters of the Imperial Japanese Army carry out air fire support."
"Hayi, please rest assured, I will immediately issue an order to launch a strong attack on the Iron Camel Mountain, quickly contact the commander of the air fighter, and you will soon see that the Iron Camel will become a sea of fire, and the earth will not be destroyed by bombs, shells and light and heavy weapons, and will also be buried in the sea of gunsmoke and fire," Chief of Staff Koizumi Jiro said arrogantly.
