Chapter 624 This is a problem!(1/2)
Outside the 3rd Brigade headquarters.
The commander of the second company of the second battalion of the division said to Wei Dayong: "Battalion commander, with the combat effectiveness of our second battalion of the division, attacking the Japanese headquarters is just like playing. If you ask me, don't waste the artillery shells. Our second company is confident."
To capture this headquarters, battalion commander, why don’t you just send our second company to storm it?”
"You seem very capable, don't you?"
Wei Dayong added: "Our regiment leader often says that in a war, you need to have the courage to win when you meet on a narrow road, but you also need to use your brain. As a commander, you need to learn how to use artillery firepower. You guys have heard of Cangyun Ridge."
Fight?"
"I know!" said the second company commander, "I have participated in the battle of Cangyunling. At that time, I was still a recruit who had just joined the army. In that battle, the regimental commander used an Italian 75mm field gun, and only one
The cannon killed the Japanese headquarters, then led our new regiment to defeat Sakata's regiment, and retreated calmly with Sakata's head in hand!"
"You've done a good job!" Wei Dayong looked at the second company commander and said, "In less than two years, you have been promoted to company commander?"
After a pause, Wei Dayong said: "This is artillery firepower. If you use artillery firepower well, it will be a sharp knife piercing the enemy's heart."
The second company commander smiled naively: "Then our new regiment has quite a lot of sharp knives, which can directly pierce the Japanese with holes!"
While the two were talking, the mortar of the second battalion of the division was quickly set up and adjusted to fire at Zhu Yuan, pointing the muzzle in the direction of the 3rd brigade headquarters.
The infantrymen of the second battalion of the division have surrounded the entire 3rd brigade headquarters.
"Batalion Commander, the mortars are set up!"
The artillery company commander of the second battalion of the division called on the walkie-talkie.
Wei Dayong held a walkie-talkie and shouted sternly: "Fire!"
"yes!"
Handing the walkie-talkie to the guard, Wei Dayong covered his ears with his hands.
Immediately afterwards, a series of muffled sounds of "tongtongtongtong" sounded on the mortar position, and more than a dozen mortar shells roared in and smashed into the Japanese headquarters.
Immediately, a fierce explosion of fireballs and gunpowder smoke rose up inside the Japanese headquarters.
Seeing the mortar fire from the second battalion of the division, six tanks opened fire one after another.
As the tank body trembled, the stream of light formed by six 75mm artillery shells directly hit the fortifications of the Japanese headquarters, and then six dazzling red lights bloomed on the Japanese fortifications.
During the loud explosion, the impact carried shrapnel, gravel and the broken limbs of the Japanese flying around.
The Japanese built some reinforced concrete bunkers at the headquarters, but they were not thickened and could not withstand the direct fire of tank shells.
The mortars of the second battalion of the division fired directly to kill the Japanese in the headquarters.
After five rounds of artillery fire, the Japanese defenses had been blown to pieces.
As for the situation inside the mortar bombardment headquarters, Wei Dayong and the soldiers cannot see it yet.
But if dozens of 60mm and 82mm artillery shells fall in, the Japanese inside will definitely feel uncomfortable.
The enemy's firepower points were eliminated one by one under the direct fire of tank guns.
"Give me the order to stop firing!"
Wei Dayong then shouted: "Second Company Commander, take down the Japs' command post for me. If you see the Japs' major general, leave it to me!"
"Yes!" The second company commander was shocked, and immediately shouted: "Second company commander, follow me!"
While speaking, the second company commander jumped up from the bunker with a 3 submachine gun in his hand, and took the lead in rushing towards the Japanese headquarters.
"Come on!"
"Kill!"
The soldiers of the Second Company, who were originally hiding in the streets on both sides, either came out of their hiding places or came out from behind the tanks. They followed the passage that was forcibly shelled by the tank guns and broke into the Japanese headquarters.
Immediately, fierce gunfire like exploding beans erupted from the Japs headquarters.
The headquarters of the 3rd Brigade was attacked, and Japanese troops from other directions quickly came to the rescue.
However, the Second Battalion of the Division had already surrounded the Japanese headquarters.
The Second Battalion in the entire division has more troops than the Japs in Datong City. In addition, the firepower is much stronger than the Japs, as well as the reinforcements of tanks.
The Japs who came for reinforcements not only failed to get close to the headquarters, but were beaten by the First Battalion of the Main Force, the Second Battalion of the Main Force, and the First Battalion of the Division who attacked from other directions.
It only took about fifteen minutes for the battle to attack the 3rd Brigade headquarters to end.
The second company commander held a major general's command sword, walked quickly to Wei Dayong, handed the major general's command sword forward, and gave him a slight grin.
"Report to the battalion commander that a major general's command knife was seized and a major general was killed!"
"Oh?" The corners of Wei Dayong's mouth curled up slightly, revealing his white teeth, and his face was visibly happy.
As one of the main infantry battalions of the new offensive regiment.
Wei Dayong naturally knew that one of Li Yunlong's strategic goals in leading his troops to attack Datong in this battle was to kill the commander of the 3rd Brigade and meet Yin Sanxiong again.
That's why Li Yunlong gave the order that if any battalion could kill Yin Sanxiong again, it would be considered the top battalion.
Wei Dayong was naturally overjoyed to have achieved the first success.
"Correspondent!"
"Immediately contact the regiment headquarters via walkie-talkie and tell them that the second battalion has captured the enemy's 3rd brigade headquarters, killed the 3rd brigade commander, met Yin Sanxiong again, and seized his command saber!"
Wei Dayong weighed the major general's command knife, with a stern and satisfied look on his face, turned his head and said loudly to the guards.
"yes!"
The correspondent and guard shouted loudly, took out his walkie-talkie and started calling the regiment headquarters.
At this moment, Zhang Dabiao, commander of the first battalion of the main force, led the soldiers of the first battalion of the main force and appeared at the corner of the street.
Seeing that the Eighth Route Army was standing around the Japanese headquarters, Zhang Dabiao and the soldiers of the first battalion of the main force immediately put down their guard and put away their guns.
The fact that soldiers from the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army are here and there are no gunshots means that the battle is over.
"Good!" Zhang Dabiao spat, "I was beaten first. Let's go see which camp it is?"
Immediately, Zhang Dabiao led the soldiers of the first battalion of the main force and walked towards the entrance of the Japanese command department.
From a distance, Zhang Dabiao saw a hunky back.
"Monk?" Zhang Dabiao shouted tentatively.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Captain Zhang?" Wei Dayong turned around and saw Zhang Dabiao holding a submachine gun in his hand. He raised his eyes and asked again: "Zhang Ying?"
Chief, where is your helmet?"
"Steel helmet? Throw it away during the charge."
Zhang Dabiao smiled.
In this battle, Zhang Dabiao personally led his troops to charge against the Japanese city wall.
Moreover, during the charge, Zhang Dabiao threw away a steel helmet to boost morale.
I thought that this time, the first battalion of the main force, which had a heavy artillery battalion to cooperate with the siege, would be the first to attack the enemy's headquarters, kill Yin Sanxiong, and gain the first victory.
In that case, not only would Zhang Dabiao not be punished, but the group leader would also have to treat him to a drink!
Unfortunately, the main force, the 1st Battalion, was already attacking with all its strength, and the 2nd Battalion in the subdivision, which was near the water tower and had tanks to cooperate with the attack, took the lead.
Wei Dayong smiled slightly. When Battalion Commander Zhang led the charge, he would throw away a military cap every time to boost morale.
The whole group knows this.
Li Yunlong often criticized him for being a prodigal, but Zhang Dabiao still did not change this habit.
In the past, it was throwing military caps, but now it is throwing steel helmets.
"Battle Commander Zhang is awesome, I don't dare to violate discipline."
Wei Dayong grinned and added to himself that participating in street fighting was not considered a violation of discipline.
Zhang Dabiao's sharp eyes saw the command sword in Wei Dayong's hand and asked: "See Yin Sanxiong's command sword again?"
Seeing Wei Dayong nodded, Zhang Dabiao said again: "Where is the old Japanese?"
"He was beaten into a sieve by the soldiers of our second battalion." Wei Dayong said.
"Nice job!" Zhang Dabiao praised.
