At eight o'clock in the morning, the explosion of mortar test shells sounded on the defense line of the Eighth Route Army, breaking the silence on the battlefield.

Soon, this sporadic explosion became dense.

The defense line, which stretched for more than 20 kilometers, suddenly appeared more than 1,000 puppet troops, holding guns and carrying heavy machine guns, walking out of the defense line and approaching the defense line of the Eighth Route Army step by step.

"Commander, the devil has really started to attack!" On the position of the 5th Regiment of the Suide Military Region, which is nearly 10 kilometers away from the Pingdingzhuang stronghold, the chief of staff of the regimental command post, who was standing next to the regiment commander, was both nervous and expectant.

"Fortunately, we received a reminder from the commander last night, otherwise we would not have been prepared, in the face of a sudden attack by devils, and it was usually launched at breakfast, the troops would definitely suffer heavy losses!" Seeing that the devil used all the mortars and heavy machine guns as soon as he came up, the regiment commander said with a palpitating face.

The chief of staff said: "Now that we are prepared, we will definitely be able to catch the devil off guard." Regiment commander, the troops had finished breakfast half an hour ago, there were steamed buns, rice, and pork stewed vermicelli, everyone was well fed and hid in the position, just waiting for the order of the regiment headquarters to clean up the devils who came over on the opposite side! ”

"How to fight, please give the regiment commander an order!"

The regiment commander's face suddenly became serious, and he stared at the chief of staff and asked, "The 20,000 rounds of ammunition that the commander sent us have been divided!" ”

"It has been distributed to all the combat units, and now we have more than 1,000 rounds of ammunition for each heavy machine gun, four or five hundred rounds for light machine guns, and 10 rounds for each rifleman. Since the formation of our group, it is the first time that we have been so generous! ”

"Good!" A very satisfied smile appeared on the serious face of the regiment commander.

Then he ordered: "In that case, then we will give the devil attack force a head-on blow!" ”

"Order, the troops are all hidden for me, prepare bullets and grenades, and the little devil's melon grenade ~ put the enemy fifty meters away and attack and counterattack with concentrated firepower!"

"The Japanese puppet army of the attacking force has a total of more than 300 people, and this battle will leave me at least half of the Japanese puppet army!"

In the vicinity of Pingdingzhuang, the Japanese army used eight mortars to carry out a five-minute artillery attack on the position of the Second Regiment.

During the shelling, eight heavy machine guns were directly carried by the devils to a position less than 200 meters away from the position and set up, and then began to strafe the position filled with gunsmoke.

The devil infantry was not a vegetarian either, and under the cover of artillery fire, they did not stop until they were seventy or eighty meters away from the position.

As soon as the shelling stopped, more than 100 devils and more than 100 puppet soldiers, under the cover of heavy machine guns behind them, got up from the ground and rushed to the position of the Eighth Route Army!

Without heavy machine guns and mortars, the 2nd Regiment fought very hard.

However, the first battalion repelled the first round of attacks of the Japanese puppet army with rifles and light machine guns. On the battlefield, fifty or sixty corpses were scattered and scattered.

Soon, the second round of the devil's attack began.

This time, the attacking troops approached until the artillery bombardment was stopped fifty meters in front of the formation.

The confident devil planned to attack this time and take the front-line position of the Eighth Route Army.

However, after the powerful fist was struck, it was as if it had hit cotton, and it had no power at all.

The Eighth Route Army on the position had only been fighting for less than a minute before withdrawing, and it was a retreat on all fronts, no, it might be more appropriate to say that they had broken and fled, because they did not even have the troops to cover.

Of course, the squadron leader led by the devil didn't want to see the fat that he had bitten into his mouth and let it fly like this.

He immediately shouted: "Eight Grid Yalu, the Eighth Route Army has been defeated by us, and it has become a rout." Catch up with them, kill them, kill them! ”

The captain of the devil brigade who commanded this attack did not stop him, and before leaving, Yamada Osa gave him a special order that the entire counteroffensive must kill a regiment of the Eighth Route Army. If you don't catch up and kill these routs, you may not be able to wait until dark to destroy a regiment.

Because he knew very well the combat style of the Eighth Route Army, many times, he fought and ran, and did not give the imperial army a chance to fight a decisive battle with them and annihilate them completely.

With this thought, the devils who broke through the three lines of defense of the second regiment in a row finally ran into the first regiment and the first battalion, and were blocked at the entrance of the ambush circle prepared for them by the first battalion.

Perhaps the firepower shown by the first battalion was too strong, and these Japanese puppet troops stopped after only one attack, and then stood by in place, waiting for the artillery and heavy machine guns of the follow-up troops to come over and provide heavy fire support for themselves.

Perhaps because the attacking troops had just taken this path, waiting for artillery support in front.

The captain of the brigade led more than 300 puppet troops, heavy machine gun squadrons and mortar squadrons in front, and less than 200 infantry were left behind, without any defense, and directly crashed into the pocket formation.

The whole ambush battle went very smoothly, and even a little unexpected by Commander Zhou.

Because it was daytime, a group of heavy machine gunners was asked to shoot particularly accurately.

Ten heavy machine guns, ten light machine guns, it took less than three seconds to kill more than half of the devil heavy machine gunners and gunners who were slow to react. Those who were still alive did not even have a chance to get close to mortars and heavy machine guns, except for lying on the ground and dying on their stomachs.

The follow-up infantry, which was hit by five heavy machine guns and ten light machine guns, reacted quickly, and only a few dozen people were killed in the exchange of fire.

But just as they were lying on the ground and preparing to counterattack, ten shells fell from the sky and smashed down on them.

The captain of the devil brigade was just about to order the telegraph operator to report to the top and ask for reinforcements, when a shell exploded between him and the telegrapher.

He escaped fatal wounds under the protection of his guards.

The operator was not so lucky, and was blown up on the spot and fell to the ground.

The devil attacking troops who remained in front of the position of the first battalion were stunned when they saw this change with their own eyes.

"Baga, what are you doing in a daze? Follow me back to the rescue captain! If anyone follows me to attack in the direction of the battlefield! ”

......As soon as he finished speaking, a very dense gunfire rang out behind him.

The Eighth Route Army, which had blocked him just now, held his gun, and rushed towards him while holding the fire.

Five or six light machine guns fired together, killing a dozen or so devils on the spot.

"The first squad and the Imperial Alliance Army left cover, and the others followed me to reinforce the battlefield and rescue the captain!" The squadron leader realized that this was a conspiracy and immediately made a decision.

However, as soon as the troops were divided, his right flank followed and killed an Eighth Route Army, with as many as two or three hundred men, with light machine guns on the head, so don't rush towards him!

"It's over......"

Two words suddenly popped into the head of the devil squadron leader, and then a string of bullets flew towards him, knocking him into a sieve.

In ten minutes, when the devil plane was still on its way, the gunfire on the battlefield ended.

Nearly 1,000 Eighth Route Army rushed to the battlefield and seized the time to clean up the battlefield.

"Commander, the devils who crossed our defense line have been completely wiped out, including the devils, a young captain, countless have been captured, and the troops are cleaning up the battlefield!" Head Zhou found Commander Wang and reported excitedly.

"Chief, our regiment commander asked me to report that the troops have re-plugged the gap opened by the devils!"

"Yes, Wang Ping set up the stage and let us sing a good show! Order, the troops quickly clean up the battlefield, withdraw from the battlefield, and then collect the corpses of the Japanese puppet army after dark, and then return them to the little devils! ”

"No surprise, it won't take long for the devils who launch feints in other directions to stop attacking, so that the regiments will strengthen their vigilance, if there is a chance, I don't mind them fighting the devil attack force for a counterattack, only by counterattacking, we can have capture!!"

And the most important one, send a telegram to Commander Wang: "The devil has been killed, and the troops continue to carry out the original plan!" ”
