6.107 The scramble for the top of Niushou Mountain

"Tuanza! How did you come to me? ”

Cai Zude's face was as black as Bao Gong out of the gunsmoke, Li Yuhe's guards knocked down these devils were the Japanese commandos, these outlaws formed a small unit in front of the position of the 4th Battalion and wandered around looking for opportunities, as long as there was a gap in the defense line of the 4th Battalion, they would drill in to wreak havoc, even Cai Zude's battalion headquarters was patronized twice by these uninvited guests, the officers and soldiers of the 4th Battalion hated these Japanese bedbugs to death, so as soon as Cai Zude heard the gunfire behind the position, he immediately pounced with a squad of soldiers, As a result, I met Li Yuhe.

"The regiment headquarters has been hit by the devil's shell, and the radio is buried in the soil, hurry up and take me to your battalion headquarters, I want to talk to the division!"

Li Yuhe didn't have time to greet Cai Zude now, the attack of the Japanese 18th Division was like a burst, and the regimental headquarters and the division headquarters had been cut off for more than ten minutes, Wang Shankui's division must be very anxious now, fortunately, Huang Haoran has always attached great importance to the communications of the troops, and the radio equipment of the main division like the 139th Division has long been at the battalion level, otherwise it would have to rely on manpower to transmit news.

4 battalion commander Cai Zude took Li Yuhe to his battalion headquarters, this is a small space at the corner of the trench, and a big hole was opened towards the front side of the position, this big hole was blown out by the Japanese mountain artillery shells, it seems that Cai Zude also encountered the same problem as Li Yuhe, the difference is that the shells that fell on Li Yuhe and the regiment headquarters are more accurate, and the caliber is larger.

"Why don't you fill it in? Don't even want to protect your own life? While writing a telegram to the telegraph operator of the 4th Battalion with a pen, Li Yuhe pointed to the open hole and asked:

Cai Zude patted the dust on his head and replied with a smile: "Didn't the German instructor say it?" It's almost impossible for two shells to hit the same place, and I just want to see if what the Germans are saying is right......"

"Nonsense! Don't hurry up and fill it in! On such a cold day, the wind is not pleasant! Even if the devil's cannonball really can't hit it, what if a few devil soldiers run in? How many devil death squads are hanging around in front of your battalion position? I don't need to tell you this! ”

Li Yuhe handed over the written telegram to the telegrapher, he put the pen in his breast pocket after covering the cap of the pen, this pen was captured during the Songhu Anti-Japanese War, I heard that its original owner was a Zhongzuo, and there were a few Japanese characters engraved on the pen body, Li Yuhe has always wanted to find those "Japanese traitors" in the army to ask the meaning of these Japanese words, but since the 99th Army arrived in Nanjing, he has been busy, so he has not had a chance.

Cai Zude knew the origin of the pen in Li Yuhe's hand, and he ordered the two soldiers to fill in the hole that the devil had blown up with a sack, and then Cai Zude came to Li Yuhe and whispered:

"Tuanza! Do you think this pen is a token of love given to his man by a Japanese girl? Now that this money is in your hands, why don't you just go to Japan and become a son-in-law......"

Li Yuhe's eyes widened, and Cai Zude shrugged his shoulders and flashed to the side and pretended to fiddle with the submachine gun in his hand, as if he didn't say those words just now......

"Camp Commander Cai! How many people are still on your ground now? What about the ammunition situation? This is all the teacher wants to ask, don't ambush!"

Wang Shankui in the 139th Division received Li Yuhe's telegram and quickly replied, Wang Shankui focused on asking about the casualties of the 539th Regiment in the telegram, the battle situation in Niushou Mountain is becoming more and more intense, the losses of the 139th Division are very large, Wang Shankui doesn't want to lose all his capital and don't know it!

"The ammunition is still very sufficient, there are about two hundred or so troops, we have repelled seven charges of the devils throughout the morning, and the wave of Japanese troops that have just been repelled is the eighth, but it will not take long for them to make a comeback, if there are no reinforcements, my battalion can only support another two hours at most, maybe... It's going to be a little shorter......"

After listening to Cai Zude's report, Li Yuhe had to pass through the remaining three battalion commanders of the 539th Regiment, and their situation was similar to Cai Zude, the 139th Division and the 99th Division were the same as the "44 system", with more than 2,500 people when they were full, and now there are only more than 1,000 people left when they are full, and this thousand people also include a battalion sent by the division headquarters to reinforce them.

This means that the casualty rate of the 539th Regiment in the mountainous area of Niushoushan exceeded 90 percent! One can imagine what kind of tough battle the 139th Division fought!

After realizing that the 539th Regiment was no longer able to hold the position of Niushou Mountain, Li Yuhe sent a telegram to the division commander Wang Shankui requesting troops to replace his 539th Regiment, Wang Shankui knew that his old subordinate would not complain easily, so he sent the 540th Regiment up the mountain to replace Li Yuhe's 539th Regiment without saying a word, and at the same time as the 540th Regiment set off, the Japanese 18th Division on the hillside launched another wing-scale offensive, and the commanders of the Chinese and Japanese armies found that the defenders on Niushou Mountain were extremely weak, Now the Japanese attack force and the reinforcements of the 139th Division are in a race, and whoever can rush to the top of Niushou Mountain first will win the battle of Niushou Mountain!

The commander of the 116th Infantry Wing, Kakuji Nakasa, desperately drove his soldiers to the top of Niushou Mountain, and the bullets falling from above were much weaker than the battle thirty minutes ago, although the 124th Wing failed to gain a foothold on the top of the mountain, but they brought great casualties to the Chinese defenders, and the 116th Wing now has the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, in the final analysis, thanks to the Wing Commander of the 124th Infantry Wing, Kokai Kamatsu Nakasa.

The 124th Wing has attacked from the early morning to the present, with more than 1,500 casualties, and the troops of the small world Fang Matsu Nakasa have basically lost their combat effectiveness, and the eighth attack just now is the last breath of the 124th Wing, and now, the 116th Wing has become the only hope of the 35th Brigade, Kataoka Kakuji Nakasa hopes that he can attack the top of the mountain in one go, so that the 116th Wing will win the competition with the 124th Wing!

Kataoka Kakuji and Okai Kamatsu are also in the rank of Nakasa, and most of the co-captains of the Japanese army are in the rank of Osa. Kataoka Kakuji and Xiaojie Fang Matsu are both holding back their strength to change their Nakasa rank to the Osaku rank in Nanjing, and now seeing their competitors stunned, Kataoka Kakuji Nakasa's heart is simply happy!

Small world Fang Song, this idiot! Actually divided the entire infantry wing into several batches to attack, such a tactic may work in the face of the ordinary central army, but the Chinese army on the hill is obviously the elite of the Chinese army, which can be easily judged from the number of machine guns and automatic weapons owned by the Chinese, and the forces invested in the wheel war of the small boundary Fang Song are not enough to break through the dense fire network of the Chinese army, even if the luck finds the flaws of the Chinese army and rushes up, Soon he would also be defeated by the strafing of Chinese automatic weapons, and as a Japanese officer of Nakasa, Kokai Fangmatsu did not know the key point of concentrating his forces to attack the Chinese army, and such a competitor really made Kataoka Kakuji Nakasa feel a little unrefreshed.

The vanguard of the 116th Wing holding the Rising Sun Banner charged extremely fast, and these daredevils personally selected by Kataoka Kakuji Nakasa were almost rushing against the rain of bullets from the Chinese army.

The soldiers who move like snails, the junior officers and officers who are advancing in small steps, the 124th Wing behaves like a pile of garbage! The leader of an army lacks courage, how can you expect his men to be a pack of tigers? Your Excellency, Commander of the Third Brigade of Tezuka Province, you should have seen it through the binoculars! The Yamato warriors of the 116th Wing are moving forward vigorously, and their performance should become a textbook for the cowards of the 124th Wing!

"Kill, give! Rush up! ”

Kataoka Kakuji Nakasa held his sword high and let out a cry like a beast! Driven by him, the devils of the 116th Wing began a rapid impact!

The commander of the 124th Infantry Wing, who was resting at the foot of the mountain with the remnants, was like ashes! His wing had lost its combat capability before it was replenished with a large number of troops, and the nearly ten hours of bloody fighting of the 124th Wing had turned out to be a useless effort to pave the way for victory for others! The small world Fang Matsu Nakasa raised his war knife and slashed at a boulder on the side of the mountain road, the slender Japanese sword with the blade could not withstand such a big impact, and broke off from the middle, the small world Fang Matsu Nakasa looked at the half of the knife body in his hand, and his eyes were gloomy......

The arrival of the 116th Wing, the new force of the Japanese army, pushed the 539th Regiment on the mountain into dire straits, if the 539th Regiment was still the 539th Regiment before the battle started in the early morning, then Li Yuhe would not feel worried at all, but now the 539th Regiment only has only thirty percent of the combat strength left, and in the face of the menacing and full Japanese Wing, Li Yuhe's heart suddenly had no bottom.

It's time to play with your life, and the 540th regiment must not take a step back before the 539th regiment comes up! Li Yuhe himself also picked up a Czech light machine gun and got into the improvised bunker, now the 539 regiment needs soldiers who can fight, and he, the regiment commander, can only take the initiative to demote himself.

Heavy machine guns, light machine guns, rifles, submachine guns and pistols, every weapon in the hands of the officers and men of the 539th Regiment completed the appearance according to their range, when the explosion of the grenade sounded in Li Yuhe's ears, he understood that the devil had attacked an area 40 meters away from the position of the 4th Battalion, and the 1st and 3rd Battalions had already fallen into hand-to-hand combat, and it seemed that the 4th Battalion would soon start to play with the little devils.

The Czech style in Li Yuhe's hand made a crisp metallic sound, which was telling Li Yuhe that there were no bullets in the magazine, and it was his little guard who was responsible for loading Li Yuhe, and this little guy was lying on the side and back of Li Yuhe, and every time when Li Yuhe's bullet was about to run out, a magazine full of bullets would be handed to him, Li Yuhe was used to such tacit cooperation, but this time until Li Yuhe's Czech ceasefire The guard's magazine was not handed over, Looking at the devil soldiers who were getting more and more in the sights, Li Yuhe ripped off the empty magazine on the machine gun and threw it at his guard, "The magazine ......!!" His voice was full of sternness!

Blood! Blood flowed from the helmet! Li Yuhe's throat seemed to be choked, he felt the pain of suffocation, the little guard lay on the ground quietly, as if he was asleep, there were several empty magazines next to his head, the little guy's hands were still in the position of loading bullets, and the steel helmet blocked his face.

Shot in the head, the little guy left this world in an instant! There should be less pain in this kind of death, Li Yuhe bit his lip hard, and his regiment was finally the last person left.

"Little one! Sleep well! I'm not going to let the devils bother you!"

Li Yuhe rolled to his guard in the face of the bullets flying overhead, he didn't lift the little guy's steel helmet to see what the familiar face looked like now, the little guy likes to be pretty, he must not want his regiment commander to see his bloody face.

"I'll help you light up your magazine! Boy, you're just watching! Looking at ....."

Li Yuhe grabbed the magazine on the ground and rolled into the improvised bunker again, the devil soldiers closest to him had discovered the existence of this bunker, the melon grenade was taken off the waist of the Japanese army, and the following action was to knock and throw, as long as one was thrown to Li Yuhe's current position, he could be lifted up, the devil's grenade was very explosive, and only the German-made grenades equipped by the elite equipment of the 99th Army and the Central Army could surpass them.

"Da da da......" Li Yuhe plugged in the magazine and pulled the bolt at the fastest speed in his life, and before the devil soldier threw out the grenade, Li Yuhe's machine gun bullet smashed the opponent's head first!

"A... Two... Three ......"

Li Yuhe silently counted in his heart, the little guy dropped three and a half magazines, and Li Yuhe's first magazine put down 5 devils.

Again!

"Dada...... Six... Heptad... Eight ......."

"Boom!" Two gun grenades hit the proposed bunker where Li Yuhe was located one after another, and the top of the bunker, which was not too thick, collapsed directly, and the mud and masonry buried Li Yuhe again, and the devils of the brigade stepped over Li Yuhe's head and poured into the trenches of the 4th battalion.

***************************************************

On the back of Niushou Mountain, the 540th Regiment's action to reinforce the 539th Regiment was discovered by the Japanese army not long after, in order to prevent the 540th Regiment from reaching the top of the mountain before the 116th Wing, the artillery wing of the 19th Division began a frantic shelling, and the 540th Regiment on the back of the mountain suddenly fell into the smoke of gunpowder.

Shells of various calibers exploded on the mountain roads, and the flying shrapnel and violent shock waves took the lives of many officers and men, and what was even worse was that the originally simple mountain roads became very difficult to move after being damaged by Japanese artillery fire, and the officers and men carrying heavy machine guns and mortars jumped forward between the potholes and potholes, and at the same time had to pay attention to the shells that could fall at any time.

In this way, the movements of the 540th Regiment slowed down, and when the 116th Wing of the Japanese Army rushed to the position of the 539th Regiment, the men and horses of the 540th Regiment had not yet advanced to the position halfway up the mountain.

It can't go on like this! The 539th Regiment on the top of the mountain must be supported immediately, if the Japanese army destroys the 539th Regiment and gains a firm foothold, then the devils on the top of the mountain will condescendingly use machine guns to strafe the 540th Regiment on the mountain road, and if you want to capture a mountain, you need to invest at least three times the strength of the defenders, the 139th Division can't take out so many troops now, and losing Niushou Mountain means that the commanding heights of the Jiangning area will never return to the hands of the Nanjing Garrison, and the riverside corridor of the Nanjing Garrison will be blocked by the Japanese army's firepower, The withdrawal of troops from Nanjing to Wuhu will be extremely costly!

"We have to learn to improvise, it's obviously too late for the big troops to rush together!2 Battalion Commander! Order your battalion to drop all heavy weapons, bring more submachine guns and pistols, and get out of the pack one step ahead! No matter what, you have to keep the top of the mountain for me! As long as the commanding heights are in our hands, the large army will be condescending to rush after they go up! Don't even think about standing still, little devil! Fast! You guys run forward! Reinforcement of the 539th regiment at all costs! ”

Shao Ganyong, the commander of the 540th Regiment, was anxious by the shouting and killing on the top of the mountain, and the altitude of Niushou Mountain was not high, if it weren't for the artillery of the little devils, his 540 Regiment would have climbed to the top of the mountain! Since the 539th Regiment has started hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese army, the heavy machine guns and mortars are not effective, and the sharp weapons of close combat are submachine guns and pistols, and the only way to drive the little devil down from the top of the mountain is by firepower, the 2nd Battalion immediately began to overtake after receiving the order of Commander Shao, and the officers and soldiers on the mountain road quickly opened a way for the 2nd Battalion, and the officers and soldiers armed with submachine guns and pistols and the officers and soldiers of the 2nd Battalion who rushed past them quickly exchanged weapons, and more than half of the submachine guns of the 540th Regiment were concentrated in the 2nd Battalion.

The artillery blockade of the Japanese army continued, and the commander of the 2nd battalion, Zheng Tao, rushed all the way with his subordinates, reinforcing the 539th regiment at all costs! This order of Commander Shao made the officers and men of the 2nd Battalion throw aside their lives and deaths, the brothers in front fell, and the people behind followed! After losing almost one company, Zheng Tao appeared on the position of the 4th Battalion of the 539th Regiment with the remaining more than 400 officers and soldiers!

"Hit!"

The movement of hundreds of Thomsons firing a salvo is simply earth-shattering! Zheng Tao's troops used bullets to drive away the Japanese troops who attacked the hilltop position, and the officers and soldiers of the 2nd Battalion lined up in a straggler line, firing fiercely, and they regained the position on the top of the hill inch by inch with neat steps!

Behind them, the 1 battalion came up! The 3 battalion is up! The main forces of the 540 Regiment finally passed through the smoke and artillery fire, and they began to push back all the way from the top of the hill to the mountainside! The devil soldiers of the 116th Wing did not last long under the condescending impact of the 540th Regiment, and their two squadron leaders were successively beaten into a hornet's nest by the officers and soldiers of the 540th Regiment, and then the Japanese army retreated like a receding sea water, in order to maintain the defensive strength on the mountain, Shao Ganyong, the commander of the 540th Regiment, ordered to retreat after attacking the mountainside, and they needed to quickly strengthen the defensive position that had become a ruin in the Japanese attack.

Li Yuhe was dug out again by the 4th battalion commander Cai Zude, because there were many gaps between the soil and masonry buried on his body, so Li Yuhe did not suffocate to death, he was only injured in the right arm by the devil's grenade.

Before the 539th Regiment had time to withdraw from the top of the mountain, the Japanese artillery began a large-scale artillery bombardment again, and the locust-like devil soldiers changed their ranks at the foot of the mountain, and in just a few dozen minutes, the 18th Division had completed their adjustment.

Niushou Mountain is destined to become a huge cemetery...... (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in to the www.qidian.com, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!) (To be continued.) )
