Ding Wei gave an order, and thousands of soldiers followed Ding Wei and ran wildly in the direction of the Japanese army.
The 3rd Infantry Regiment of the Japanese Kitahara Division, the 1st Infantry Battalion of the 5th Infantry Regiment, and more than 3,000 Japanese soldiers were sitting in the snow to rest.
Because the road was blocked by heavy snow, it was really difficult to walk on it. They had been marching for several hours and were already exhausted.
The bad weather made it difficult for their truck to move forward. In order to prevent it from overturning, the Japanese driver also watched the car carefully.
But the speed of the car can only be described as a turtle speed, not even as fast as a child walking on foot.
Fortunately, just when they were exhausted, Ding Wei called them back in time.
Hearing that Niangziguan was okay and that delicious food had been delivered, the group of Japanese soldiers who went to support him breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, I don’t have to suffer anymore.
But they waited and waited, but still did not wait for the so-called food delivery person to arrive.
Yamagishi Yamagishi, the commander of the Japanese army, was wearing a military coat and sitting by a bonfire to warm himself.
At this time, he was already ravenous with hunger. Waiting in the cold wind for too long had tortured the old devil quite hard.
at this time.
Suddenly he heard the sound of snow being trampled in his ears.
"Someone is coming, go and check the situation immediately!" Yamagishi Hōka reacted very quickly and shouted immediately.
The chief of staff next to him immediately looked through the telescope in the direction of the source of the sound: "Your Excellency, the commander, it seems he is one of our own."
"One of our own?" Yamagishi Fenghua immediately felt relieved, waved his hand and said: "It must be the people from Niangziguan who brought us food. These damn guys actually knew about coming here."
The chief of staff of the wing had a strange expression: "Your Excellency, wing captain, although you are delivering food to us, there must be too many people here. At least one person from the brigade is heading towards us."
"Nani?" Yamagishi Hōka looked confused and took the binoculars to look over.
The fact was just as the staff said, through the wind and snow, more than a thousand people could be vaguely seen holding weapons and equipment, marching towards them.
A brigade, this is the entire garrison at Niangziguan.
"Baga, what on earth are these idiots doing?" Yamagishi Hōka cursed, with a somewhat confused expression on his face.
Until this moment, he still had not thought that the "Japanese soldiers" in this brigade were not their companions.
"The little Japs didn't react. Let's spread out the formation, try to extend the front line as much as possible, and directly surround these Japs soldiers!" Ding Wei ordered as he ran.
Ding Wei had brought out all his strength at this moment, including the pistol squad, bombardiers, machine gun company, and artillery platoon with dozens of artillery pieces.
Although they did not have heavy artillery, these thousands of Japanese soldiers also did not carry any heavy artillery equipment because it was convenient for them to travel.
The soldiers of the machine gun company also opened their safety guards one after another, and the heavy machine gunners even chose higher ground to build their positions.
The goose-feather heavy snow gave the 28th Regiment excellent cover, and the little devils did not notice that they were preparing for battle.
Some Japanese soldiers were even a little excited when they saw Ding Wei and the others.
After all, they thought Ding Wei was the one who delivered their meals.
The group of Japanese soldiers soon entered the firing range of the 28th Regiment.
"Kill, kill these little devils!" Ding Wei raised his arms and shouted.
The leader of the machine gun company held a light machine gun with a crooked handle and pulled the trigger at the Japanese.
In an instant, dozens of machine guns fired simultaneously, and the muzzles of the guns burst into brilliant flames.
A dense rain of bullets roared towards the Japanese.
Yamagishi Hōka, who was observing the situation with a telescope, was caught off guard by everything.
Several stray bullets shattered the telescope lens and penetrated into Yamagishi Hōka's head.
In an instant, Yamagishi Fenghua's head was broken, and a cloud of blood mist bloomed.
Fengfeng Fenghua didn't even make a sound, and fell straight to the ground, still holding the telescope in his hand to observe.
Immediately afterwards, a dense rain of bullets swept in this direction.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye. The wing chief of staff standing next to him had no time to dodge before he was beaten into a sieve by the dense rain of bullets.
Thousands of soldiers from the 28th Regiment formed a long skirmish line, giving full play to their superiority in firepower.
Dozens of light machine guns and heavy machine guns poured bullets violently at the Japanese soldiers, and most of the Japanese soldiers had no time to react.
They were shot by a barrage of bullets and died on the spot.
The soldier holding a submachine gun also shortened the distance between the two sides, perfectly displaying the melee power of the submachine gun.
Like harvesting wheat, the little devils fell to the ground wailing.
Even if the kid wanted to hide in the truck and rely on the iron sheet outside the truck, it would be useless.
The hot heavy machine gun bullets can easily tear through the iron plate on the outside of the truck and shoot the Japanese inside into a pile of minced meat.
Ding Wei was not stupid enough to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese. Instead, he took full advantage of his automatic firepower and suppressed the enemy's attack.
The artillery platoon's dozens of grenades and mortars also began to bombard the Japanese positions.
After taking Niangzi Pass, in addition to the 38-guns and light and heavy machine guns, they also seized a lot of grenades and mortars.
How could the equipment in the warehouse be ordinary at a very important pass for the Japanese army?
In order to prevent someone from taking Niangzi Pass, the Japanese have been storing all kinds of heavy firepower all year round.
If it weren't for the difficult mountain road, the little devils would probably want to send tanks, armored vehicles, and even howitzers to Niangziguan.
Now that Ding Wei's artillery platoon can be expanded into an artillery battalion, there is no problem in giving the Japanese a grand soup of steel and bullets.
The 28th Regiment continued to shrink the encirclement. Under their fierce offensive, the little Japanese fell in pieces. Due to lack of firepower, they kept shrinking the defense line.
Because they did not expect that Ding Wei would launch a sudden attack, they did not build a defensive position immediately.
Having lost the opportunity on the battlefield, they were unable to counterattack under the powerful firepower of the 28th Regiment.
After several battles, the artillery of the 28th Regiment naturally became more accurate, and they could almost hit wherever they pointed.
Usually, as soon as the Japs' light and heavy machine guns fire, they will immediately receive the focus of attention from the 28th Regiment's artillery.
The light and heavy firepower of the Little Japs was severely weakened. Without automatic fire cover, they were unable to fight back against the wolf-like soldiers of the 28th Regiment.
Accompanied by bursts of harsh whistling sounds, firelight flickered across the battlefield.
The little devils and the others also discovered a group of expert gunners on the opposite side, and their shooting accuracy was only better than theirs.
When this group of Japanese soldiers hurriedly tried to counterattack, what awaited them was an even denser rain of artillery fire.
