Chapter 365 More than two thousand people were broken into pieces!
"Bagh Ya Road, how is it possible? How is it possible?"
Seeing this situation, Major General Yagi Yusuke, commander of the 16th Brigade, looked at the headquarters of the attack departure position with horror and roared in disbelief.
"Commander of the brigade, commander of the brigade, order the troops to withdraw quickly!"
At this moment, Daisuke Takada, the chief of staff of the 16th Brigade standing next to him, grabbed Yusuke Yagi's left hand, shook it violently, and shouted.
Amidst the rumbling sound of gunfire, Yagi Yusuke, who came back to his senses, immediately shouted angrily at the Japanese staff officer who was also being bullied by the side: "Quick, quick, quick, quick, order the mountain attacking troops to retreat, quick, quick, retreat,
Go quickly!".
"Yes, brigade commander."
The Japanese staff officer who was called hurriedly shouted, then rushed away and sent someone to send an order to attack the two Japanese infantry brigades that were defending the positions on the mountain where Wangyou Pavilion and Xiangji Temple were located, and immediately retreated.
"Contact the artillery group and use fire to cover the retreat of the attacking troops."
Yagi Yusuke then said to Daisuke Takada with a serious expression.
"Yes, brigade commander."
Colonel Takada Daisuke said seriously, and also walked to the side of the headquarters, picked up a field phone and quickly contacted the rear artillery group. The artillery fire covered the retreat of the mountain attacking troops.
At this time, the Japanese troops attacking the garrison positions on the mountains where Wangyou Pavilion and Xiangji Temple were located had been covered in frontal attack areas by dense rain of bullets fired from heavy machine gun anti-slope positions behind the two mountains.
Suddenly, the Japanese soldiers who had no time to retreat were covered by a dense rain of heavy machine gun bullets, leaving corpses everywhere.
In particular, at this time, the two Japanese infantry brigades had already reached the halfway point of the mountain. At this time, there was no time to turn around and withdraw down the mountain.
You must know that the straight trajectory of a heavy machine gun is enough to cover a range of at least 500 meters from the front of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain.
What's more, it's not just that.
Therefore, more than two thousand Japanese soldiers were in a hurry and were hit by dense rain of bullets. Corpses were scattered all over the field, and screams continued to spread across the two mountainous areas.
At this time, Xu Rui had already risked being hit by Japanese artillery shells. He reached a trench on the front of the mountain and looked down with a telescope.
I saw countless Japanese soldiers being hit by barrages and screaming in agony.
Many Japanese were beaten to death, and due to the steepness of the mountain, many of the Japanese who were killed rolled down the mountain.
"Well done!"
Xu Rui punched the edge of the trench and laughed loudly.
Of course, Xu Rui is pretending, after all, bullets don’t have eyes.
"Commander, why are you on the front line? It's dangerous."
At this time, the cat on the side of the trench bent his body and lowered his head. A man ran over and dealt Xu Rui a heavy blow.
Xu Rui took a closer look and saw among the rumbling explosions and gunshots that the person coming was First Battalion Commander Chen Zhenping.
"You kid!"
After Xu Rui saw clearly that it was Chen Zhenping, he laughed loudly and said: "It's okay, the bullets that can kill me and the shells that can kill me have not been made yet.".
"By the way, the Japanese are showing signs of retreating down the mountain. Let me hit them with mortars, grenades, mine cannons, and grenades."
"The little devil is going to run away!"
First Battalion Commander Chen Zhenping saw the topic changed and didn't want to go back to the cave headquarters on the back of the mountain. He was helpless and speechless, and then he lay down on the edge of the trench and looked down.
Sure enough, the Japanese troops attacking the mountainous area where Wangyou Pavilion was located were covered by a sudden hail of heavy machine gun bullets, leaving corpses strewn across the field and suffering heavy casualties.
In this case, even if the kid is a fool, he will know that something is wrong and retreat immediately.
"Tuanzu, don't worry, brothers are all ready!"
Chen Zhenping chuckled and said.
"Go back to your position and command the troops to counterattack!"
Xu Rui smiled and said.
"Tuanzu, be careful!"
First Battalion Commander Chen Zhenping spoke again worriedly, and then said to the security guard responsible for Xu Rui's safety: "Even if your kid dies, you still have to ensure the safety of the group."
"Don't worry, First Battalion Commander!"
Xu Rui's guard nodded and said.
Chen Zhenping nodded, then lowered his head and returned to his command position along the trench.
And soon, with the signs that the Japanese army attacking the mountain was about to turn around and withdraw from the mountain, Xu Rui commanded the troops to use the reserved mortars, grenade launchers, thunder cannons, and other artillery brought over to target the troops who were turning back down the mountain with all their strength.
The retreating Japanese troops counterattacked with fierce heavy firepower.
All of a sudden, the Japanese soldiers who had thrown their backs to the defenders on the mountain were beaten and their retreat was littered with corpses and a mess.
On the mountain where Xiangji Temple is located, Li Yunlong, the leader of the new regiment, and Xu Rui counterattacked, concentrating all the heavy firepower they could, and unleashing all their firepower on the Japanese troops who were retreating down the mountain in embarrassment.
Suddenly, the Japanese soldiers, who had been covered by the heavy machine gun barrage of the defenders and suffered heavy casualties, retreated down the mountain in embarrassment, leaving behind countless corpses.
When the Japanese 41st Division's artillery group learned that the attack on the mountain had failed and that the defenders on the mountain were ambushed, they immediately followed Yagi Yusuke's request and opened fire with all their strength to provide artillery cover.
However, in order to prevent the artillery fire from hitting his own people, the Japanese artillery regiment captain Futou Futeng could only command the artillery group of the post not to use the 105mm howitzer, but to use other artillery to cover the artillery fire.
But if this happens, the Japs troops attacking the mountain will be in dire straits.
By the time the Japanese troops attacking the mountain were withdrawn and the headcount was completed, it was already 3:16 in the afternoon.
The attack on the mountain took almost twenty minutes.
However, the two Japanese infantry brigades that attacked the defenders on the mountains where Xiangji Temple and Wangyou Pavilion were located suffered almost all casualties.
"Commander of the brigade, the soldiers who have withdrawn have been carefully counted."
The commander of the 16th Brigade soon reported to the commander of the brigade, Major General Yagi Yusuke, at 3:17 in the afternoon, "We attacked two enemy mountain positions. Yusei's troops, 2,121, were withdrawn to
There are only one hundred and three soldiers left who attacked the starting position!"
"I attacked the enemy's two mountainous positions and lost almost all of them."
After saying that, Daisuke Takada looked bitter and angry.
"Bang!!!"
Hearing the results of the attack on the mountain, Major General Yagi Yusuke gritted his teeth and punched the sandbag in front of him, and then said: "Xu Rui, Li Yunlong, they are really ruthless."
"They have hidden at least half of their troops and firepower. We saw troops moving to the back of their trenches in front of them. We originally thought they were going south to reinforce Zhenting City, which was raided by the parachute battalion. But looking at the current situation, this is the other side's confusion.
Our actions.”
Hearing this, Colonel Takada Daisuke was shocked and immediately said: "Captain of the brigade, did you think of something?"
"certainly!"
Commander Yagi Yusuke said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid there may have been a problem with the 6th Parachute Battalion."
