Coincidentally, Meng Lezeng and others left behind the high ground to block the Japanese army, which happened to be near the 500-man airborne unit of the Japanese army.

During the day, the Japanese reconnaissance planes had already detected a mechanized force of more than 1,000 men heading along the road to Lashio, and the task of these 500 Japanese troops was to occupy the high ground on both sides of the highway and block the Chinese reinforcements layer by layer...... Since the mechanized troops relied heavily on roads, it was more than enough to use 500 Japanese troops to accomplish this task.

But what the Japanese did not expect was that after they parachuted to the ground to gather troops, they were blocked by the Chinese army before they had gone far on the way to their destination.

This is different from the information that the Japanese army has received before, this is the fourth batch of airborne troops of the Japanese army, and the news obtained from other airborne troops is that the Chinese soldiers are about to collapse at the first touch, but there is an enemy ambush here.

The Japanese army did not think much about it, and immediately launched an attack on the Chinese soldiers on the high ground.

For example, at this time, their strategic goal is Qiaoliang two miles away and the 601 Heights after it, and they can completely bypass the two heights in front of them and continue to seize the Qiaoliang and 601 Heights, so that they can easily cut off the road for the Chinese mechanized troops to reinforce Lashio.

But the Japanese did not do this, and Captain Teng Tian, who commanded the battle, drew his command knife and ordered the troops to attack the Chinese soldiers......

It seems that Captain Teng Tian cannot be blamed for this, you must know that the Japanese Airborne Forces have only been formed for two years now, and their tactical thinking is still at the level of infantry combat, and it is better to call this infantry hanging on a parachute than an airborne force. In the words of the German instructors, it is: "The Japanese Airborne Forces are the most tactically technical airborne troops in the world".

Of course, its poor tactical technology refers not to the poor combat effectiveness of the Japanese airborne troops, on the contrary, these airborne troops are still selected from the elite of the infantry, their parachute jumping skills may not be good (most of the Japanese transport planes are used in the front line, so most of the training airborne troops can only use jumping towers), their tactical thinking is also backward, but as soon as they get to the land, they will be alive and well, after receiving the order to attack Tengtian, the Japanese army rushed to the high ground like a chicken blood, but a photo was beaten down by Meng Lezeng and others.

Meng Lezeng and his party also had a lot of people, 324 people, and ten mountain guns, while the heavy equipment of the Japanese airborne troops had nothing but two heavy machine guns, and several mortars dropped by the air could not be fired because the mortar shells could not be found.

So the Japanese army was blown down after a few "booms".

Part of the reason for this is that Meng Lezeng thought that their group would not survive anyway...... They were determined to die, so from the beginning of the fight, there was no such thing as saving ammunition, so they just thought about fighting hard and then dying with the devil.

Therefore, as soon as they saw the devil coming up, they hit the bullets and shells "rattle", and the firepower was very fierce, but the ammunition could not withstand their tossing, and it was not long before the ten guns turned into scrap metal because there were no shells.

This time, the Japanese army knew that these Chinese on the high ground were just paper tigers, so they stepped up the attack.

Lacking ammunition, Meng Lezeng and others gradually could not resist the Japanese attack, and later even reached the point of being stoned with bayonets.

Seeing that Meng Lezeng and the others couldn't hold on, there was a sudden "rumbling" motor sound at the end of the road.

The sound of the motor took both sides by surprise......

The Japanese were surprised because they knew that as an airborne force, they could not have tanks, and at the same time, the 56th Division was also blocked in Tangji, so this tank must be Chinese.

Meng Lezeng thought that it would not be a tank of the national army...... There are only a few tanks in the National Army, not to mention that the Fifth Army with tanks is still far away in Mandalay, so it must be reinforcements from the Japanese army.

"Brother!" Meng Lezeng patted Gao Yushu's shoulder and said with emotion: "We are also fated today, although we can't be born on the same day and month of the same year, but we are going to die here on the same day and month of the same year!" ”

Gao Yushu, whose face was covered with blood, nodded, and replied with a smile: "I can die with Camp Commander Meng, and I have no regrets!" can fight devils like today, and die as deserved! ”

Then Gao Yushu waved the box cannon in his hand and shouted: "Brothers, get on the bayonet, let's fight the devil!" ”

"Fight with the devil!"

……

The fighters loaded their rifles with bayonets.

However, just as they were about to rush down, they were surprised to find that the tanks that appeared on the other side of the road were firing wildly at the Japanese troops.

At first, Meng Lezeng thought it was a ghost tank mistake...... After all, they had never seen the appearance of the tank, so they still suspected that it was a Japanese tank, until they fired a flare and found that the person who was shooting at the devil behind the tank was clearly a Chinese in a Chinese military uniform.

The troops that appeared on the other side of the road were none other than the Engineer Regiment.

They were surprised when they first heard gunshots on this side of the road...... The 66th Army stationed on the road all the way down has fled, how can there be gunfire ahead?!

However, if there is a gunshot, it must be that there are Japanese devils who have done it with their own people, and Wang Mazi does not dare to act rashly when he is not clear about the situation.

At the same time that he ordered the first battalion to prepare for battle, he sent a team of scouts out to reconnoitre. After confirming that the Japanese army was besieging the high ground held by their own people, they used tanks to cover the infantry and stabbed the Japanese in the back.

The engineer regiment sent two M3 light tanks at this time......

At this time, it was the enemy infantry, and the light tank was better than the Sherman medium tank.

This is not only because there are many machine guns on the M3 tank, but also because the road is narrow enough to accommodate two Shermans but can accommodate two M3s, so the fire directly towards the Japanese army has two guns plus four machine guns, plus the fire of the infantry behind the tank, only to come up and make the Japanese scream.

"Brethren!" Meng Lezeng, who was on the high ground, shouted excitedly when he saw this: "It's our own people, the devil is going to be finished, rush!" ”

"Rush!" The morale-boosting soldiers jumped out of the trenches with bayonets in their hands and rushed towards the Japanese like tigers descending from the mountains.

At this time, the Japanese army was already panicked by the sudden blow of the tank fire of the engineer regiment in the back, and then rushed down from the top of the mountain by Meng Lezeng and others, and was soon rushed to pieces.
