After only ten minutes of joy, the commander of the reconnaissance platoon of the second regiment rushed over out of breath: "Chief, emergency!" ”

"A devil who strengthened the squadron, a battalion of puppet soldiers, a total of more than five hundred people, are also rushing in the direction of the Yakou stronghold, and they are closer to the Yakou stronghold, and they can kill the stronghold in ten minutes!"

"I'm in trouble......" Commander Wang's face suddenly became solemn, which was still relaxed just now.

"They will definitely rush ahead of the second regiment and enter the cliff mouth stronghold. More than 500 days of puppet troops, coupled with the terrain of the Yakou stronghold that is easy to defend and not easy to attack, even if the second regiment brings infantry artillery over, it can't gnaw this piece of Gu head! ”

"Chief of Staff, how long will it take for the first convoy to transport supplies to arrive at the Yakou stronghold!"

"An hour and a half!" The chief of staff replied with a serious face.

Commander Wang's face was even more ugly: "This means that the second regiment will take the Yakou stronghold and the more than 500 puppet troops that will enter the stronghold within an hour~"

The chief of staff's face also became solemn, and replied with a calm face: "Yes, commander~ Do you want to send a regiment over and take the cliff pass stronghold at all costs, even if you fight the two regiments together!" ”

"It's useless!" Commander Wang shook his head and replied.

"The devil is condescending to defend the stronghold, with heavy firepower and plenty of ammunition. We are a feint, no matter how many people go up, it is useless, and we are sent to death in vain! ”

"There is only one way, to use limited shells to destroy the firepower points of the cliff pass stronghold as much as possible and reduce the offensive pressure of the infantry~"

"Then the troops will attack from four different directions, scattering the devil's forces and firepower, so maybe there will be a chance!"

"In this way, Chief of Staff, you stay here, and the second and third battalions of the first regiment stay, and you must hold this gap that the second regiment just brought for me. I took a regiment, a battalion and a fire company, and marched to reinforce the second regiment! ”

"The Cliff Pass stronghold must be taken. Commander Wang, they have taken Liulin County at the risk of being completely annihilated by the devils, and seeing that the grain we urgently need is about to be sent to the base area, there must be no accident at this time! ”

"Boom, boom, boom......"

In the violent explosion, the last four shells of the infantry artillery company hit the devil's stronghold, sending up four fireballs mixed with a large amount of black smoke.

Commander Wang decisively ordered: "The twelve mortars of the two regiments continue to fire, and after two minutes of rapid artillery fire, the four directions will attack at the same time, regardless of the feint and the main attack, whoever is the first to enter the stronghold will be the main attacking force!" ”

After nearly 200 mortar shells smashed into the stronghold and exploded, the Eighth Route Army, with more than 500 troops, divided into four lines, armed with rifles, rushed to the stronghold with a posture of not wanting to die.

The stronghold, where only the sound of explosions could be heard just now, soon rang out with the sound of gunfire.

The closer the attacking force was to the stronghold, the more intense the gunfire became, and the more fighters fell on the offensive path.

"Commander, the shelling just now destroyed at most one-third of the devil's heavy firepower~" The deputy regiment commander frowned and analyzed, with a heartache on his face.

"There are still a lot of firepower points that have not been destroyed, and the devil's marksmanship is accurate, the bullets fired from the rifle almost bite the flesh, and the casualties of the troops are too great......"

"There are many casualties, but it is more than a million catties of grain, and you know how many people can be fed when it is transported back to the base area? The troops continue to attack, and no one can take a step back without my orders, and the stronghold must be taken! ”

The sound of gunfire, explosions, continued to envelop the battlefield.

In less than ten minutes, a large number of corpses had fallen around the Yakou stronghold, all of which belonged to the Eighth Route Army.

The chief of staff of the Second Regiment came over with a heartache and reported: "Chief, there were more than 400 people in the four companies just now, but less than 200 people came back, and more than 240 people were directly lost, basically all of them were sacrifices!" ”

Whether it was the second regiment commander or Commander Wang, his heart ached.

It was only ten minutes, and the two companies were gone. At this rate of loss, in half an hour, the entire second regiment will be exhausted.

Seeing the painful and heartbroken expression of the second regiment commander, Commander Wang hesitated for a long time before gritting his teeth and ordering: "Draw out four more companies and attack again, I don't believe that I can't take this cliff stronghold!" Also, order the fire companies of the two regiments to use up all the shells we brought, and then cover with heavy machine guns and assault the infantry! ”

"When shelling, heavy machine guns and infantry should try to move forward, shorten the attack distance, and don't be afraid of accidental injury!"

In less than twenty minutes, the results of this attack were in.

Four companies directly lost nearly three companies, and only one or more companies returned.

Hearing the result, the second regiment leader, a man in his thirties, cried directly.

The Second Regiment is finished, and even if it does not fight, it will take at least half a year for the Second Regiment, which has already lost its strength to its partners, to regain its combat effectiveness.

For a while, everyone's eyes were focused on Commander Wang.

Commander Wang's face was very ugly, maybe because he was angry, maybe because he was aggrieved, and his face was directly flushed.

At this time, he was also embarrassed and didn't know what to do!

There was artillery fire just now, and the infantry failed to take the stronghold at the cliff pass. Now that the artillery is out of shells, it is even more impossible to take the stronghold at the cliff pass.

However, in more than half an hour, the convoy carrying supplies and grain will arrive here, and if they cannot take the stronghold themselves, the grain that the troops have only grabbed at great risk can only be blocked by the stronghold at Yakou on the other side of the mountain, and there is no way to send it back to the base area.

Just when he was getting more and more anxious, the commander of a company of the reconnaissance battalion suddenly rushed over.

"Chief...... Commander Wang asked me to tell you that he has a way to take the Yakou stronghold and let you wait for ten minutes! ”

"Didn't you follow Captain Wang? How did you get here! Commander Wang asked with a frown.

"Commander Wang is also here, and then we will be able to arrive~ When we were halfway there, I heard that the troops were storming the stronghold at Yakou, and the losses were very large, so he asked me to take the first step and rush here in advance to persuade you to suspend the attack!"

Seeing that the second regiment commander couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, Commander Wang was also very happy and replied immediately.

"Then I'll wait for him to come!"

Soon, Wang Ping's figure appeared in Commander Wang's field of vision, and at the same time, Commander Wang also saw a scene that surprised and shocked him.

Eight field cannons, eight mountain cannons, under the traction of the horses, appeared in front of him one after another.

Before Commander Wang could react from the shock, Wang Ping ordered Li Wen behind him.

"Set up all the mountain artillery, aim at the stronghold of the little devil's cliff, and hit the artillery fire for ten minutes. I'm going to raze the cliff mouth stronghold to the ground! ”

Commander Wang finally reacted: "Let our artillery also go over to help, and by the way, learn from the direct team how to use these mountain artillery!" ”
