Chapter 127 Annihilation of the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade

The commander of the Major General Katayama Shotarō of the independent mixed 4th Brigade of the Lunar Army was killed, and the rest of the Lunar Army troops in the east were annihilated, so it was no longer a matter of time.

In order to lower the morale of the Yue army and encourage each battalion to fight bravely, Chen Ziyun began to spread the news that Katayama Shoutaro had been killed.

"Duanzao, Tuanzao, there is news from Tuanfu Chen that after their pursuit, Katayama Shoutaro was shot dead."

"Tuan Chen personally showed off the commander of the Major General Brigade of the Fourth Independent Brigade of the Yuan Army in vain. Captain, is that a huge victory?"

"If they can annihilate the remaining Lunar Army troops, then in that battle, can they completely annihilate the Lunar Army and form an independent fourth brigade?"

A staff member quickly came to Chu Yunfei and reported excitedly.

After Chu Yunfei heard the news, he couldn't help but froze on the spot for a moment, with an expression of disbelief on his face.

He looked at the staff officer with wide eyes and confirmed it several times.

When it was confirmed that Chen Ziyun had indeed killed Katayama Shoutaro, Chu Yunfei clenched his legs into fists.

"Okay, Ziyun is really a strong player. I never thought that he could achieve such results."

"Would Ziyun be the first to make the most successful contribution in this battle? It would be the greatest blessing for the 358th Regiment to have Ziyun."

"In his name, he ordered all battalions to attack and annihilate the Moon Army troops facing them."

"Those who bravely kill the enemy will be heavily rewarded, and those who are afraid of fighting will be severely punished."

"The officers and soldiers of the 358th Regiment in the East should imitate Chen Ziyun and be proud of Chen Ziyun."

Chu Yunfei said excitedly, and as he finished speaking, without saying a word, he took a submachine gun and charged forward with a small number of guards.

"Brothers, we have just received news that Chen Tuanshu has killed the commander of the Yue Army Major General's Brigade, Katayama Shoutaro."

"The commander of the Major General's brigade of the little Japs was killed. The little Japs in Chengdong are worthy of our military exploits. They must not be missed."

"The regiment has an order. Those who bravely kill the enemy will be heavily rewarded. Those who are afraid of fighting will be severely punished. Charge with him and annihilate the Moon Army troops."

"That time, their 358th regiment will definitely become famous all over the world!"

"The glory of the Jinsui Army will also be carried forward and strengthened because of his 358th Regiment!"

After the battalion commanders of the frontline battalions received the order, they immediately spoke with excited expressions on their faces.

The officers held rifles and personally led the troops in assault operations.

As the news spread that Major General Katayama Shotarō, commander of the Yue Army Brigade, was shot dead by Chen Ziyun, the morale of the officers and soldiers was high.

At this time, even though the little Japanese resisted desperately, the officers and soldiers continued to attack.

Time is passing, and the sky is gradually becoming more suitable for the east. It is past seven in the morning.

When preparing to evacuate, Lieutenant Commander Moriki Tsuneichi of the Moon Army Artillery Team was hit by a mountain artillery fire and was directly killed.

The battle has progressed to this point, and the Japs have almost no defensive support points.

With the entire position in front, there were only scattered gunshots in the east.

Each battalion launched a dragnet-style search, striving to annihilate all the little Japanese troops.

At the same time, the commander of the regiment, Chu Yunfei, once again issued the battle order to annihilate all Yue puppet troops without taking any prisoners.

Chu Yunfei knew very well that that battle would definitely make the 358th Regiment famous throughout the world.

Does he also hope that by annihilating the independent mixed fourth brigade, the 358th regiment will be completely reborn?

"Regimental leader, did Chen Tuanfu kill the commander of the Major General Brigade of the Yue Army?"

"Is it true that they killed a major general of the Moon Army?"

Regiment Chief of Staff Fang Ligongfu came to the front line at eight o'clock in the morning. When he saw Chu Yunfei, he said emotionally.

"Brother, did you see that they not only killed a major general of the Moon Army, but also completely annihilated the fourth independent mixed brigade!"

"Brother Ligong, his 358th Regiment had 5,000 troops before, but in the battle of Cangyun Ridge, I would have been able to tell."

"Without Ziyun's artillery battalion, their 5,000 troops would not even be as good as the 8,000-strong infantry regiment!"

"But after this battle, the 358th Regiment will definitely be reborn, and they will become a truly elite force."

"Brother Ligong, let me wait and see. That army will definitely become the trump card that makes the Yue Army fearful."

Chu Yunfei held the Jinzao submachine gun tightly and said with an excited expression on his face.

When Fang Ligong heard this, his body shook uncontrollably. At that moment, his heartbeat began to accelerate.

Looking at the Jinsui officers and soldiers everywhere on the battlefield, Fang Ligong seemed to see a picture of the future army becoming invincible on the battlefield.

Unknowingly, the sound of gunfire gradually stopped coming from the puppet army position, and the battle there was over.

In the Yangcun area, hundreds of Japanese troops were facing attacks from the New 1st Regiment, the 2nd New Regiment, and the 358th Regiment Artillery Battalion, and they did not have many remaining troops.

Those Lunar troops held on desperately and continued to resist.

As the battle progresses to this point, their troops are getting smaller and smaller, and they have no support.

Under such circumstances, it would only be a matter of time before they were annihilated.

Especially if the news of Chen Ziyun, a lieutenant colonel of the 358th Regiment, killing the Yue Army Major General Brigade Commander Katayama Province was passed on, it would have a great impact on the morale of both sides.

The guard company and cavalry company knew that their direct commander Chen Ziyun had killed a Yue Army major general, and their morale was high.

Chu Yu and Zhang Wu boosted the morale of the troops, and they launched fierce attacks one after another, striving to annihilate the Japanese troops.

"We have killed the commander of the Major General Brigade of the Moon Army in all the camps. If we can't even deal with those ordinary little devils, then we will be embarrassed."

"They have the best weapons and equipment, and the best soldiers. If they can't even defeat the Moon Army, how can they face the wrong camp when they go back?"

"There is nothing to say. Completely end the battle before ten o'clock and wipe out all the Japanese troops."

"Although our cavalry company is a newly formed unit and their horse combat capabilities need to be strengthened, most of us are infantrymen."

"In the East Malaysia war, we have combat effectiveness. The camp has achieved wonderful results, and we must not embarrass the camp."

"It's said that the guard company is elite, but our cavalry company is not weak either. Brothers, rush over with him and eat that little devil!"

Chu Yu, the commander of the guard company, and Zhang Wu, the commander of the cavalry company, took the lead and led their troops to charge.

During their attack, the small Japanese troops who were fighting in scattered directions were killed one after another.

As for the troops of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment, Li Yunlong could just stare and curse.

"Did you hear that? Did the 358th regiment get some benefits? They killed the little Japanese Major General's brigade commander."

"What a great victory. Can you please get me a little Japanese general's sword? Not to mention the brigade commander, otherwise the division commander will have to treat me, Lao Li, to drink and eat meat."

"Hey, we, Lao Li, don't have that kind of luck. All we can do now is eat the little devil in front of us."

"Otherwise, he would not be able to explain to the brigade commander after the battle."

"Zhang Dabiao, before ten o'clock, no matter what the situation is, please wipe out those little Japanese troops!"

"It's very important. After the battle is over, clean up the battlefield immediately!"

Li Yunlong kept shouting out battle orders, and then he began to command the troops to carry out all-out combat.

Not long after, Ding Wei commanded the entire New Second Regiment to engage in combat.

Even Kong Jie immediately joined the battle with an independent regiment.

The few remaining little Japs in the Yangcun area became fat in their eyes, and they all wanted to eat them.

Naturally, the little Japanese army had no chance of breaking out.

Around half past nine, the fighting stopped and there was no sound of gunfire around.

During the time when Donglai arrived, troops from both sides were actively cleaning the battlefield.

Of course, during the battle, the Bulong Eighth Route Army and the Shanxi-Sui Army all had the same goal, which was to completely annihilate the Japanese troops.

Is it time to clean up the battlefield? Let’s not talk about the situation between the Eighth Route Army and the Jinsui Army.

Whether the new first regiment, the new second regiment, or the independent regiment troops will have conflicts, there will be conflicts.

"Old Ding, please don't forget that our new second regiment has just been formed, and we don't want to deny the weapons and ammunition that Lao Li gave us."

"We are fighting in Wanjia Town and Qingshan Town this time. Without their new regiment, can we gain any benefits?"

"Now that our new second group's wings have become stronger, we can directly grab the spoils with his new group."

"Take care of my troops, otherwise don't blame me, Old Li, for turning his back on us."

"Kong Er is stupid, you're fucking saying I'm not an honest person, I'm an honest ass."

"The Independent Regiment has a total of more than 300 people. We don't need rifles or bullets or mines. We are looking for light and heavy machine gun grenades."

"What's going on? I, Kong Er, plan to let the troops directly fight with light and heavy machine guns and grenades in the future."

"Old Ding, Kong Er is stupid, we listen to him."

"The Independent Regiment's rifles are too poor. Lao Kong's Independent Regiment just needs to look for rifles."

"The new Second Regiment has whatever weapons it wants. Let's get some bullets and leg mines. If not, he'll give us the bullet box for his helmet."

"We are not allowed to touch Chengdong's trophies, otherwise don't blame us, Lao Li, for denying us our old comrades."
