"400 farts, don't fucking think that Lao Tzu doesn't know, your battalion suffered more than half of the casualties half an hour ago, and now there are still 478 people, how many more people did the teacher tell Lao Tzu?" Li Mang said with tears in the corners of his eyes.

"Regiment commander, although there are only more than 300 in our battalion that have not hung the lottery, but there are more than 100 lightly wounded people who can go to the battlefield, a regiment has been stunned for two hours and has not broken the blockade of the little devil, I am fucking sorry for the dead brother, even if I fight for this life, I have to gnaw off the turtle shell of the little devil." Tang Yingshan's voice was a little whimpering, but his momentum was not low at all.

Li Mang said angrily: "Those who are not injured can participate in the battle, and those who are injured should withdraw from the battle immediately, how many people in the second battalion can fight?" ”

Zhang Zhibing, deputy commander of the second battalion, said loudly: "Report to the regiment commander, the second battalion has 774 people, 234 people have been sacrificed, 112 people have been seriously injured, 235 people have been slightly injured, and 193 people can participate in the battle. ”

Without waiting for Li Mang to speak, Wu Yide, the commander of the third battalion, also shouted: "There are 387 people in the third battalion who can participate in the battle."

"Reconnaissance Company 55 people"

"Cavalry Company 44 People"

"Engineer Company 88 people"

"Regiment commander, there are 1,368 people in the whole regiment who can still participate in the charge, how about it, can you fight?" Chief of Staff Wang Jianming asked loudly.

"Can fight, why can't you fight, this time only succeed and not fail, there are less than a thousand little devils left in the trenches opposite, Lao Tzu's regiment was fought out by them 6 layers of combat effectiveness, Lao Tzu doesn't believe that they can still be safe and sound, even if the little devils have arranged two infantry brigades here, Lao Tzu has to let them all stay here. First carry the wounded down to Lao Tzu, eat and drink all the dry food and water on his body, and then fight with Lao Tzu, and die on the way to the charge. Do you understand? ”

"Understood, understood"

The troops rested for more than ten minutes, and Li Mang saw that although the soldiers were relatively tired, they all looked resolute, and looked at the watch, which was almost noon. Li Mang pulled out the thick-backed machete on his back, pointed to the Japanese position in front and shouted: "Comrades, brothers. In front of us is the position of the little devils, we charged six times this morning, and each time our comrades-in-arms and brothers had to fall dozens or hundreds of people, this may be the last charge of our regiment, and this time our political commissar and chief of staff will participate. It's all fucking that the little devil is powerful, but Lao Tzu doesn't believe in this evil, it's all fucking raised by his mother, it's fucking two shoulders and a head, and one mouth says that it's two pieces of meat to give back to his mother, and the brothers, the brigade commander is looking at us behind our backs. The dead brothers are watching us from heaven, all the brothers have them, and they are bayonets."

At this moment, there was a roar from behind: "Commander, commander." Brigade commander phone, brigade commander phone. ”

Li Mang didn't hear anything, and was about to order the troops to make a final charge, but Xu Jizu, the political commissar on the side, heard it and hurriedly reminded: "Lao Li, listen, it seems that the brigade commander has called." ”

Listen, it seems to be fucking true. All quiet, all quiet! Li Mang listened for a few minutes and hurriedly said.

After a while, a little soldier ran to Li Mang's side out of breath and said loudly: "Report the head of the report." The brigade commander urgently telegraphed. ”

"Slow down, slow down! What exactly did the brigade commander instruct? Li Mang said loudly.

The little soldier took a big breath and said: "The brigade commander ordered our regiment to immediately alternate cover and withdraw from the position. The brigade headquarters will ask the artillery regiment to replace our first regiment with a ton of ammunition, and the second regiment will immediately go into battle. ”

"What, the brigade commander told us to withdraw, how the can this work, you tell the brigade commander that we are already on the way to the charge, and we can't retreat, no, no, let's go and talk to the brigade commander, did you get the phone?" Li Mang said.

"I've got it, but it's still in the future, and I'll be there in three minutes." The little warrior said hurriedly.

"It's still your kid who understands Lao Tzu's thoughts, hehehe, I'm happy to do this thing about your kid today. If Lao Tzu can come back alive in this battle, Lao Tzu will let you be Lao Tzu's guard, hehehe! Li Mang showed a rare smile, but this smile was inevitably a little bleak in the eyes of the soldiers.

"Yes, I'll hear the captain." The little warrior said.

The phone was quickly connected, and Li Mang shouted in a loud voice: "Is it the brigade headquarters, I am Li Da bandit." ”

"I'm Zhang Tianyuan, why didn't you kid hear Lao Tzu's order, rub a fart, hurry up and roll down for Lao Tzu." Zhang Tianyuan's roar came from the phone. …,

"Brigade commander, our regiment is ready to charge, the bayonet has been put on, please let us make the last charge, if this time it fails again, I will withdraw without saying a word, I will say nothing to the 300th Division, and we will lose face for our brigade." Li Mang also said emotionally.

"You fucking give me a discount for a fart with Lao Tzu, and remove it immediately, otherwise Lao Tzu will remove you from your post now."

"Brigade commander, even if you want to shoot me, I have to finish this battle, our first brigade has never fought such an embarrassing battle since its establishment to today, I Li Mang Li big bandit can't open this head, even if I take my fucking life, I have to maintain this honor, please brigade commander must agree to our request."

"B. Commander please grant our request"

Hearing the roar of a group of soldiers in unison on the phone, Zhang Tianyuan and Xue Yuqing were silent for a while, and after glancing at each other, Zhang Tianyuan grabbed the phone and said: "This is the only time to go down as an example, and besides, Li Da bandit, you fucking listen to Lao Tzu, you must give Lao Tzu back alive." ”

"Smack" Zhang Tianyuan hung up the phone.

Zhang Tianyuan, who hung up the phone, held back the tears in his eyes and shouted at the newspaper soldier on the side: "Send a telegram to the artillery regiment, ordering them to carry out 10 rapid fire rounds at the Japanese position, provide artillery support to the first regiment, and ensure the safety of Li Da bandits even if all the artillery shells at the brigade headquarters are consumed." ”

"Yes"

The trumpet sounded again, and this time not only Li Mang and Zhang Jianmin and all the cadres of the regimental headquarters participated in the charge, but even a few cooks from the regiment followed behind the large army with kitchen knives, this scene moved all the troops, and at the same time shocked the enemy.

As Li Mang expected, there were indeed less than a thousand Japanese soldiers left in the Japanese position. Although the Japanese army repelled six attacks by one regiment and inflicted at least more than 1,500 casualties on one regiment after a whole morning's fighting, its own losses were not small, and less than 1,000 of the more than 1,900 people in the two infantry brigades were now left, and more than half of the casualties had already been lost. In addition, the two most elite infantry brigades of the 63rd Infantry Brigade are housed on this position, and more than half of them are veterans. This made the brigade commander, Major General Nakajima Tokutaro, extremely distressed.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, it seems that the people of China are about to attack again, are we withdrawing to the next blockade line?" Brigade Chief of Staff Kinshiro Yamada spoke.

"Yaga, I am ashamed of you that the elite infantry of the Japanese Empire could not even hold out for four hours of attack by that infantry regiment. Tell Hyotaro that if he can't repel this attack of the Shina people, don't come back to see me, Yamada, you stay and command the battle, and we'll go. After saying that, Major General Nakajima Tokutaro left with dozens of personal guards.

Yamada Nishishiro shook his head with a wry smile, secretly wondering how he was so unlucky to encounter such a tenacious infantryman. But whether he wanted it or not, the battle had to continue, and Yamada could only pray that Hyotaro Nakasa would once again show the bearing of the Great Japanese Imperial Army and push back the hateful Shina people.

However, it backfired. Just when the squadron was getting closer and closer to the Japanese position, the Japanese commander was about to order the soldiers to open fire, only to hear a sharp "woo" sound from the sky, and the experienced Bingtaro Osa hurriedly shouted: "Yaga, it's a shell, quickly climb down!" ”

The shelling was not long, and Hyotaro estimated that it would be only five or six minutes. If the previous five or six minutes of shelling had been left behind, at most a few more people would have been killed, and would not have posed a deadly threat to them. But this time it's different. When the cannon sounded, Hyotaro was surprised to find that the squadron had reached a distance of less than 50 meters from their trench. That is to say, even when the shells exploded around the position and in the center just now, the squadron was still charging at high speed, and did not stop at all because of fear of supremacy. And dozens of demomen with explosives bags on their bodies have approached more than ten meters of the bunker. The speed end is very fast.

This madness alone is not much worse than the real elite of the Imperial Japanese Army, you must know that the accuracy of the 75mm caliber mountain artillery is extremely poor, the error difference of more than ten meters and tens of meters is possible, no one can guarantee that there will be no error at such a close distance, and the explosion of their own people, the Chinese dare to continue to charge at this time and indeed have a fight with the crazy Japanese elite, at this time Hyotaro's heart trembled, and he bent down and loudly ordered the defenders to fight back. …,

But at this time, the squadron was already extremely close to the Japanese position, and a large part of the Japanese army had not yet recovered from the shelling just now, so the gunfire of the counterattack was very sparse, and the losses caused to the squadron were not very large.

Hyotaro knew that the next step was the time to really test the courage of the soldiers, and the brutality and bloodiness of the hand-to-hand combat was by no means something that a group of recruits who had never been on the battlefield could withstand. Hyotaro secretly rejoiced in his heart, fortunately, His Excellency the Brigade Commander had put these two infantry brigades in the front-line position, and if the other brigades had been defeated, they would probably have been defeated by now.

Hyotaro kicked away a machine gunner who had already been killed, and pulled the trigger with a slight aim at the star, and the Type 92 heavy machine gun began to frantically swarm forward with bullets under his control.

"40 meters"

"30 meters"

"20 meters"

When the troops approached the Japanese position more than 20 meters, Li Mang ordered the soldiers to throw the grenades in their hands together, and at a distance of 20 meters, as long as a man could throw the grenade into the ring fortifications of the Japanese army.

After the explosion of "boom, boom, boom", the troops in the first circular trench of the Japanese army suffered numerous casualties, and took this opportunity to lead a regiment of the main force to rush into the Japanese position at the fastest speed, and launched a tragic white-knives battle with the Japanese bayonets.

The fierceness of the white-knuckle battle is well known, and the Japanese army in front of it is very surprising in terms of fighting quality and fighting will, although Li Mang's regiment has a certain advantage in soldiers, but in fact in hand-to-hand combat, the regiment does not have much advantage, and it is impossible to completely annihilate this Japanese army in a short period of time, and the two sides are in a stalemate.

Both troops are hard-nosed, and they both have the belief that they will fight to the last second, and neither of them wants to abandon their positions and run away or attack in vain. The two commanders, Li Mang and Hyotaro, are also red-eyed now. I didn't realize what kind of tragic end it would be to continue to hold on.

The two of them were killed, but they were anxious about Zhang Tianyuan and Nakajima Tokutaro who were watching the battle behind. Seeing that the battle was temporarily stalemate, Zhang Tianyuan hurriedly sent the second regiment up, and the corresponding Nakajima Tokutaro also sent the reserves of the two infantry brigades in his hands.

A tough battle turned into a white-knuckle battle because of Li Mang's disobedience to orders, which was undoubtedly good for the Inner Mongolia Military Region. But it was not a good thing for the 62nd Division, because the fortifications they had painstakingly managed did not do much at all. The angry Yoshio Hongo screamed and scolded Nakajima Tokutaro for being stupid.

In fact, at this time, Nakajima Tokutaro himself also reflected, the gains and losses of one city and one place were nothing, but due to the momentary spirit, the whole battle was out of the original track in less than an hour after the battle, which made Major General Nakajima Tokutaro angry and had to sigh that the ** team was indeed not Wuxia Amon anymore.

Tokutaro Nakajima is an extremely decisive person. Like the other high-ranking officers of the Japanese army, he was a complete and outright militarist, a man who took neither his own life nor the lives of others seriously, and when he saw that the fighters had departed from their original plans, in order to proceed smoothly in the ensuing battle, Nakajima Tokutaro went so far as to order the artillery wing to immediately open fire on the positions in which the battle was engaged, even though there were still his troops on both sides of the battle.

Maybe I've seen a lot of things like this or have experienced. In the course of the artillery bombardment, the Japanese infantry broke away from the battlefield in an orderly manner under the command of the few remaining commanders and withdrew.

Although Li Mang and others knew that the Japanese army was cruel and belligerent and inhumane, they did not expect that it would reach such a heinous realm. After the Japanese withdrew, the 1st Brigade of the 300th Division occupied the position and opened the first pass to Dezhou.

Although the battle was won. However, no one in the first brigade was happy, because on the first day of the war alone, the first brigade dispatched almost half of its troops, and the casualties were extremely heavy, especially the first regiment, after the battle was over, there were only more than 500 people left in the regiment who could still stand, and the losses of cadres and soldiers were extremely heavy, and it can be said that the first brigade lost an entire infantry regiment, one-third of the entire combat strength of the whole brigade.

The same Yoshio Hongo was not happy either. The entire 62nd Division had only 12,000 men, and the infantry brigade was no more than 10. But on the first day of the battle, more than two brigades were lost, and the two most combat-ready infantry brigades were lost. This made him embarrassed. …,

Furious, Yoshio Hongo reprimanded Nakajima Tokutaro for a long time, and then transferred the commander of the 64th Infantry Brigade, Major General Toyoji Okumura, to the front line to command the battle, while Nakajima Tokutaro and his 63rd Brigade were transferred to the rear as reserves.

After the battle, the most important thing was to lick the wounds, and the 1st Brigade deliberately explained the situation to the front enemy headquarters due to the heavy casualties, and at the same time requested support. Song Shilun was silent after receiving the telegram, and it took a long time before he came to his senses.

Song Shilun was not in a hurry to call back the first brigade, but asked Fu Qiutao on the side: "Old Fu, where has the 4th Division gone?" ”

Fu Qiutao thought for a while and said: "It should have passed Qingfeng Ridge, there are mountains and rivers all the way, and the cavalry troops are not easy to walk, and they don't dare to act at will in the daytime, and they have only walked fifty miles at most from last night to today, which is very early from the place." ”

"When will I be able to arrive at my scheduled location at the latest?" Song Shilun asked again.

"Two days, there are nearly a hundred miles from here to Wangtong Town, and at the current speed of the cavalry division, it will not be until tomorrow night at the latest, but although Qingfeng Ling Mountain is not high, it is extremely steep, and there are many cliffs, and it is not easy for the cavalry division to reach Wangtong Town smoothly, this time the plan is a bit hanging?" Fu Qiutao said worriedly.

"It's okay, there is a special operations team in front of the road, I don't think anything will happen, let's wait for the situation with peace of mind, now a regiment asks for support to send troops to support us, we can be regarded as a hard stubble in this battle." Master, I think this time I will let your teacher go up and go through the experience? Song Shilun said.

"It's okay, I think let's let the 1st Brigade, 1st Regiment and 2nd Regiment of our division go to reinforce Zhang Tianyuan, and by the way, help Zhang Tianyuan tighten his pockets, don't let the little devil slip through his pocket." Fu Qiutao said.

"Okay, let's do it."

After receiving Song Shilun's telegram, Zhang Tianyuan was overjoyed and hurriedly ordered Li Mang's regiment to withdraw behind the large army to rest and recuperate, and Wu Qiangfen's third regiment took over the attack position to continue the attack.

In the eyes of Yoshio Hongo, the squadron is undoubtedly crazy, in the next two days, regardless of casualties, the squadron launched countless attacks on the positions and commanding heights of the 62nd Division, although the squadron set aside 4 strongholds in two days, occupied 2 bridges and 11 commanding heights, but also suffered heavy losses, according to the estimates of the front-line troops, the squadron suffered at least 3,000 casualties in just these two days, plus more than 2,000 people killed and wounded on the first day, in these 3 days of fighting** The team lost at least 5,000 men, which is equivalent to a complete infantry brigade, which is quite satisfactory to Hongo Yoshio
