Coincidentally, Meng Lezeng and others left behind high grounds that blocked the Japanese army, which happened to be near the 500 Japanese troops airborne.

During the day, the Japanese reconnaissance planes had already reconnaissed a mechanized unit with more than 1,000 people heading to Lashio along the highway. At this time, the task of these 500 Japanese troops was to occupy the highlands on both sides of the highway and block Chinese reinforcements layer by layer... Since the mechanized troops relied heavily on the highway, it was more than enough to use the 500 Japanese troops to complete this task.

But what the Japanese army did not expect was that after they landed on the ground to assemble troops, they were blocked by the Chinese team before they could walk far to their destination.

This is different from the information obtained by the Japanese army before. This is already the fourth batch of Japanese airborne troops. The news received from other airborne troops was the only one that the Chinese people were about to collapse at a touch, but there was an ambush from the enemy here.

The Japanese army did not think much and immediately launched an attack on the Chinese people on the high ground.

This is the fighting style of the Japanese army. It should be said that they are just thinking hard in some aspects. For example, at this time, their strategic goal is to bridge and beam two miles away and the 601 highlands later. They can completely bypass the two highlands in front of them and continue to seize bridge and beam and beam and beam six01 highlands, so that they can easily cut off the road for Chinese mechanized troops to reinforce Lashio.

But the Japanese army did not do this. Captain Tengtian, who was commanding the battle, pulled the command knife and ordered the troops to attack the middle-aged people...

This seems that Captain Tengtian cannot be blamed. You should know that the Japanese airborne troops have only been in two years since they were established, and their tactical ideas are still at the level of infantry combat. Instead of calling this airborne troops, it is better to call it infantry hanging on parachutes. In the words of a German instructor, it is: "The Japanese airborne troops are the worst airborne troops in the world with the worst tactical technology."

Of course, its poor tactical technology does not mean that the Japanese airborne troops are poor in combat effectiveness. On the contrary, these airborne troops are elites selected from the infantry. Their parachuting skills may not work (most Japanese transport aircraft are used on the front line, so most of the airborne troops can only be used to jump towers for training). Their tactical thinking is also backward, but they become lively as soon as they arrive on land. After receiving the order from Tengtian's attack, the Japanese army rushed to the high ground like a chicken blood, but they were beaten down by Meng Lezeng and others as soon as they met.

Meng Lezeng and his group were also quite large, with 324 people and ten mountain cannons. The heavy equipment of the Japanese airborne troops had nothing but two heavy machine guns. The several mortars dropped from the air were unable to fire because the mortar shells could not be found.

So the Japanese army was bombed out in a few "boom".

Part of the reason is that Meng Lezeng thought that their group would not survive anyway... They were determined to die, so they did not save ammunition since the battle started, so they just wanted to fight happily and die with the Japanese.

Therefore, when they saw the Japanese coming up, they fired bullets, and the shells were rushing. The firepower was very fierce, but the ammunition could not withstand their torture. Not long after, the ten artillery pieces turned into scrap iron because they had no shells.

From then on, the Japanese army knew that the Chinese on the high ground were just paper tigers, so they stepped up their attacks.

Meng Lezeng and others, who lacked ammunition, gradually could not resist the Japanese attack, and later they even reached the point of hitting bayonets with stones.

Seeing that Meng Lezeng and others could not hold on, a "rumble" motor sound suddenly came from the other end of the road.

The sound of the motor surprised both sides of the war...

The Japanese army was surprised because they knew that as an airborne unit, they would not have tanks, and at the same time, the 56th Division was also blocked in Tangji, so the tank must belong to the Chinese.

Meng Lezeng thought it would not be a tank... There were not a few tanks in total, and the Fifth Army with tanks was still far away in Mandalay, so it must be reinforcements from the Japanese army.

"Brother!" Meng Lezeng patted Gao Yushu's shoulder and said with emotion: "We are destined to be together today. Although we cannot be born on the same day of the same year, we will die here on the same day of the same month of the same year, the same month of the same day of the same day of the same year!"

Gao Yushu, who was covered in blood, nodded and replied with a smile: "I can die with Captain Meng without regrets! I can fight the Japanese like today and die as much as I do!"

Then Gao Yushu waved the box cannon in his hand and shouted: "Brothers, get the bayonet, let's fight with the Japanese!"

"Fight with the Japanese!"

...

The soldiers installed bayonets on their rifles one after another.

However, just as they were about to rush down, they were surprised to find that the tanks that appeared on the other end of the road were shooting wildly at the Japanese army.

At first, Meng Lezeng thought it was the Japanese tank that was shot wrong... After all, they had never seen the tank before, so they still suspected that it was a Japanese tank. It was not until they fired a flare that they were clearly shooting at the Japanese behind the tank, and they realized that it was their own troops.

The troops that appeared on the other end of the road were the First Engineer Regiment.

At first they were surprised to hear the gunshots on the road... The 66th Army stationed on the road all the way fled completely, how could there be gunshots in front?!

However, there must be gunshots that some Japanese devils had fought with their own people. Wang Mazi didn't dare to act rashly when he was not sure about the situation.

While ordering the first battalion to be prepared for combat, he sent a team of scouts to conduct reconnaissance. After confirming that it was the Japanese army besieged the high ground guarded by their own people, they used tanks to cover the infantry and stabbed the Japanese army hard behind them.

The Engineer Regiment sent two m3 light tanks at this time...

At this time, the enemy infantry was attacking, and the light tank was easier to use than the Sherman medium tank.

This is not only because there are many machine guns on the m3 tank, but also because the road is narrow and cannot accommodate two Shermans, but can accommodate two m3s. So the firepower directed towards the Japanese army was two artillery and four machine guns, plus the firepower of the infantry behind the tank, which made the Japanese army scream as soon as they came up.

"Brothers!" Meng Lezeng on the high ground shouted excitedly when he saw this: "It's us, the Japanese are going to be finished, rush!"

"Roar!" The soldiers with high morale jumped out of the trench with bayonets and rushed towards the Japanese army like tigers going down the mountain.
