In order to let the defenders of Zhengding defend with peace of mind (although the county town is not of much military value, if it is gained and lost, it will definitely make Gu Shoufu unable to raise his head in front of his colleagues. Gu Shoufu told the wing commander of the cavalry wing that he personally brought troops to help in the telegram, but he never expected that the 15th Army had already deciphered the Japanese army's telecommunication code, so Yang Botao knew the general situation of the enemy's reinforcements and waited for it a few minutes later, and as a result, an infantry brigade of the 11th Infantry Brigade of the Japanese Army, which was the vanguard, was killed and wounded dozens of people by a round of 6 75mm field guns of Yang Botao's regiment before they could start the formation. However, the 6th Field Artillery Wing of the Devils did not receive the order to return fire for a long time, and the morale of the Japanese attacking troops, who were puzzled by this, was greatly demoralized, and the first attack ended hastily before it began

It turned out that Yang Botao placed the artillery position on the side of the railway, and if the Japanese artillery, which was far away from the railway station at that time, fired back immediately, it was likely to destroy a large section of the railway, and they would have to clean it up by themselves at that time, so it was no wonder that Gu Shoufu did not let the artillery return fire. However, when the Japanese artillery moved forward to a position where it could be accurately shelled, not only did the 6 75mm field guns preemptively launch a fierce shelling again, but the 6 Type 92 infantry guns that had not been exposed before also opened fire at the same time, knocking out many gun positions of the devil on the spot.

The devil's artillery naturally did not suffer in vain, and they quickly launched a fierce counterattack, but the artillery position of Yang Botao's regiment was perfectly arranged. Those 12 were all light guns that were very easy to transfer, so the heavy shelling of the devils did not cause much practical effect. Tani frowned when he saw that the enemy position did not hear the expected serial explosions, but he ordered the artillery to continue firing to cover the infantry attack

The frontal attack tactics of the Japanese infantry were actually very simple, starting with artillery bombardment (which is more effective if there is an air attack). If the enemy army is in disarray, then attack on all fronts; If the enemy is not in chaos, then continue the artillery bombardment, cover the advance of the assault troops to four or five hundred meters away from the enemy's forward position, and then the grenadiers in the attacking force use special Type 89 grenades to carry out several rounds of "shelling" on the enemy in a row, and if the enemy army is in chaos, then attack on all fronts; If the enemy army is not panicked, then the Japanese assault force will suppress the enemy army with heavy machine guns. The covering infantry continued to advance to a distance of about 200 meters from the enemy, at which point the grenadiers in the team would fire grenades from their grenadiers and attack the enemy continuously, while the ordinary infantry would also fire at the enemy with light machine guns and rifles until one of the two armies could no longer hold out. If the enemy army collapses, then the Japanese army will naturally charge immediately, and if the Japanese army can't resist it first (in the offensive battle, the devils will be unable to maintain the offensive formation if the casualties are more than three-thirds), then the devils will take the initiative to retreat to wait for another battle when their own advantage is greater, and if it is a battle. At this time, the devils will often launch the famous "onboard" charge under the leadership or drive of the officer, and the result is nothing more than two, either successfully breaking through the enemy line, or the attacking troops are all exhausted

This tactic seems to be very brainless. However, with the Japanese army's good at roundabout flanking and interspersing infiltration tactics, countless squadrons hated it. But this time the 6th Division was kicked to the iron plate

One of the Devil's infantry brigades, under the cover of artillery, finally advanced to a distance of almost 500 meters, and the grenadiers were about to open fire. As soon as the devils heard this voice, they knew that this was the Type 89 grenade they were going to launch with a grenadier, and they were dumbfounded, and what made them even more unbelievable was that the accuracy of the grenadier on the opposite side was not below them, how could this be possible? The grenadier is not only a very short "barrel", but also does not even have a rifling, if you want to play with high accuracy, it is impossible without a long time of hard training, the people of China have never been equipped with a large number of grenadiers, and naturally it is impossible to carry out corresponding training, how can it suddenly be so accurate? …,

The devil's confusion was quickly solved, because someone on the opposite side excitedly shouted "onboard" after the successful "shelling" of the grenadier, and it was obvious that the grenadiers fired among the enemy were also Japanese, and now all the devils were angry, "Yaga! Destroy these traitors to the empire! ”

It turned out that since the test of the North China battlefield, the 15 th Army has become more and more trusting of the reformed Japanese prisoners of war, especially the grenadier canister, which is a very chicken weapon for the Chinese soldiers, is simply specially prepared for them, and most of them used to be elite soldiers of the Japanese permanent division, of course, Jishu will not be worse than the devils of the 6th Division, these well-trained veterans are rushing to get fragrant buns in the 15 th Army. However, in order to prevent miscommunication from causing accidents, Hu Weidong also stipulated a principle, that is, only when the direct superior can speak Japanese, and the level is not low, the Japanese soldiers will be arranged to this unit, Yang Botao as early as when he was captured by the Red Army not long after the influence of the old commander Hu Lian to learn Japanese to pass the time, and now the level of Japanese is quite high, so his regiment has added a full 150 Japanese soldiers after the war in North China, and the regimental headquarters directly under the regiment is centrally used. These former "devil soldiers" have all seen blood in the North China War of Resistance, in a sense, they are even more loyal than the Chinese soldiers, no, after the outbreak of the all-out war of resistance for the first time, they gave their compatriots a note of Ma Wei

The furious devils were eager to kill these damned traitors immediately, and they even ignored the infantry drills and directly rushed to the position of the 2nd Regiment of the 94th Division. But the Chinese officers and soldiers in Yang Botao's regiment would not stand idly by while their comrades-in-arms were attacked, even if they were Japanese.

Due to the open terrain around the railway station, even if the devil wants to play interspersed infiltration, he can't hide the eyes of the commanders and fighters of the 2nd regiment at all, which allows Yang Botao to boldly concentrate the main forces on the frontal defense, and the Japanese army launched the charge is just an infantry brigade, and the number is completely unadvantageous, and Yang Botao's regiment is equipped with light machine guns to the squad, the squad leader and deputy squad leader have a submachine gun, and the other infantry is also a semi-automatic manpower, and the grenadier is as many as hundreds, even if it does not carry a heavy machine gun for mobility, The firepower density is also much greater than that of the devils, and they have a position to rely on as a defender, so they take advantage of the counter-shooting (to be continued).
