Commander Dai finally entered the city, and the division headquarters was set up by the staff in a Chinese private house.
When Mr. Dai walked into the house, he felt as if he had returned to his own home. The familiar gatehouse, the familiar screen wall, the familiar courtyard, the familiar nave, the altar, the Eight Immortals table and the chairs outside.
Just as Commander Dai was sitting on the outer chair, he heard the rumble of cannons coming from outside the city.
"Report."
"Speak." Mr. Dai always speaks concisely, to the point, and to the point. He is a true man.
"Battle report, Battalion Commander Chang of the 1149th Motorized Infantry Regiment blew up the Pew River Bridge, blocking the Japanese vanguard, annihilating 89 enemies, and repelling the Japanese vanguard."
"Well, good job."
"A battalion of Battalion Commander Tong ambushed the Japanese cavalry brigade for the first time and wiped out 33 enemy cavalry. The engineer company repaired temporary fortifications for Battalion Commander Tong. Battalion Commander Tong was blocking the second attack of the Japanese cavalry brigade by the Pew River.
Crossing the river to attack, the Japanese army is now preparing artillery fire."
"Order Battalion Commander Tong, after blocking this attack, leave one platoon to continue blocking the attack, and withdraw all the others. Outside the city is not a long-term solution," Commander Dai ordered.
"yes."
"Where are the British and Burmese troops?" Commander Dai asked.
"General Alexander's British troops passed directly outside Tonggu City, and there are also British troops on the west route who are currently guarding Pyay."
"We can't count on the British army, and it's hard to predict the British army in Piaomi. The most important thing now is that I have confidence in holding on to Tonggu. If Piaimai falls, our army's western flank will be completely exposed to the Japanese army. The Japanese army attacking the west is
That troop?”
"Report, the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army, the division commander is Lieutenant General Sakurai Province 3rd."
"We need to strengthen contact with the reconnaissance force of the Sixth Army on the West Road. I want to keep abreast of the battle situation on the West Road."
"Report, Hu Biao, deputy commander of the Second Regiment of the Fifth Division of the New Fourth Army, reported to Commander Dai." It was Biaozi and Yang Ying.
Commander Dai turned around, looked at the two officers in front of him, and said: "Lieutenant Colonel Yang, you are the elite of the party and state, and Vice Captain Hu is the reconnaissance hero invited by Chief Du to the fifth theater. Since he is here, he is the national army series, and he is
Bar."
"Reporting to the division commander, Hu Biao, deputy captain of the 200th Division Reconnaissance Team, and Lieutenant Colonel Yang Ying report to you." Yang Ying is from the military command, and she knew that Commander Dai was making insinuations when she heard it. Although Commander Dai was a hard-blooded soldier, no matter what he said,
He is a direct descendant of the Chairman.
"Okay, what's going on?" Master Dai asked.
"Captain Luo divided the reconnaissance team into three detachments, and he went out with two detachments to conduct reconnaissance, leaving us here to rendezvous with the main force," Hu Biao said.
"This Captain Luo deserves to be the captain of the special forces team. The way he fights is extraordinary. Let him go. If you just need an ordinary reconnaissance company, I will grab a lot of them here. What I want is his elusiveness." Dai.
The teacher said.
"Sir, what are we doing now..." Yang Ying asked tentatively.
"Since you stay in the city, let's take part in the Tonggu defense battle. This battle is related to the overall situation of the expeditionary force. Yang Ying will continue to do a good job in telecommunications and intelligence. Vice Captain Hu will stay with me and make mobile preparations. Dr. Lan will go to the division headquarters for medical treatment.
Report to the office." Mr. Dai said.
"Yes!" The two stood at attention and saluted.
Battalion Commander Tong's troops were being bombarded by Japanese artillery fire. The dust was flying, and trees in the woods were constantly blown down by artillery fire. The soldiers who were unfortunately hit by the artillery shells were immediately blown into the sky, their limbs were broken, and they died heroically.
Battalion Commander Tong's telescope was already covered with dust. He wiped it with his sleeve and stood in the newly built command post under gunfire. He held up his telescope and carefully observed the movements of the Japanese cavalry.
Colonel Fukuyama drew out his command sword, swung it forward, and screamed: "Quack, tick, tick—"
Two squadrons of cavalry took advantage of the fact that the enemy troops were being bombarded by artillery fire and couldn't raise their heads. Three to four hundred horses rushed towards the Pew River, kicking the water with their hooves.
Seeing that the cavalry had crossed the water line of the river, although the water was getting deeper and deeper and the cavalry's advance was also slowing down, Battalion Commander Tong's troops could not get up and shoot yet.
Colonel Fukuyama held up his binoculars and saw that the cavalry of the two squadrons had crossed the line of the river. The enemy did not fire to stop them. There was a hint of joy on his face, but he was still a little worried. It was not the river that was blocking the cavalry. The cavalry dispersed and attacked quickly.
, Colonel Fukuyama would not have so many worries.
Just as the Japanese cavalry was about to reach the river bank, Battalion Commander Tong ordered: "Give me the order. One company is loaded with bullets, and the machine guns are ready to be carried out of the trench. Other companies are ready for rapid support."
"Yes." The four messengers responded in unison, and ran out of the command post under artillery fire, running in different directions.
As soon as the order was received, the company commander ordered the brothers: "Brothers, load the bullets, load the bayonets, and prepare the machine guns!"
"Yes." The brothers in the first company were not frightened by the artillery fire. You must know that this is the 200th Division. I think back then at Kunlun Pass, it was with the notorious Fifth Division of the Little Japs. Not only did it not suffer, but it also
The Fifth Division was defeated abruptly.
The commanders of the second and third companies received the order and immediately ordered: "Brothers, load the bullets, load the bayonets, and wait for the artillery fire to stop, then charge with me immediately to support."
"Yes." A group of brothers connected to a company shouted loudly.
Colonel Fukuyama heard the faint shouts coming from the distance and felt that the number of people was wrong. It seemed that there were more than one company of troops. This made Colonel Fukuyama more worried. He held up his binoculars and stared at the enemy.
There is not a single soldier showing up in the position, but the cavalry is about to land. Royal warriors, please work harder.
Finally, after the artillery fire extended, the Japanese stopped bombing.
"Brothers, the Japanese artillery fire has stopped, stand up, prepare, fire -" the company commander roared, and the brothers flew out with bullets filled with hatred, and row after row of Japanese cavalry were beaten to pieces.
However, two squadrons of Japanese cavalry have already landed, and the horses are rushing towards the position at high speed. Although they are from the 200th Division, they are not all equipped with American equipment. Many soldiers have to pull the bolt of the rifles in their hands to shoot.
After reloading the bullet, I found it difficult to defeat the enemy's cavalry, which was rapidly attacking.
"Dong dong dong", the reserve teams of two companies and more than 300 Chinese soldiers suddenly jumped into the trenches and joined the ranks to block the Japanese cavalry.
"Click, click, click." The machine gun fired harder.
"Bang", "bang", "bang", there are many people and strength, one row of soldiers shoots, another row of soldiers pulls the bolt and changes the ammunition, the brothers alternately shoot at the Japanese cavalry. Seeing the Japanese cavalry rushing to the front of the position, they are killed.
piece.
Colonel Fukuyama shouted "Wow!" He now clearly saw that the enemy force on the other side was not one company of troops, but three companies of troops. It was over.
After Seto finished directing the artillery bombardment, he ran over and held up his binoculars. He originally wanted to see how the cavalry brigade successfully occupied the enemy's position, but he found that more than half of the cavalry of the two squadrons had been killed.
"Colonel, have reinforcements arrived?" Seto asked.
"They didn't come here, they were already in ambush. The Chinese army is cunning and cunning. Wow--" Colonel Fukuyama was about to go crazy. "Seto-kun, prepare to continue the bombardment."
"Colonel, the emperor's cavalry is attacking, and the artillery fire will cause accidental damage," Seto said.
"Accidental injury, accidental injury. Seeing that the two cavalry squadrons are about to be completely destroyed, what else can there be?"
"Hi." Seto agreed and ran over to the artillery position.
When the last Japanese cavalry was left, the company commander ordered the brothers to stop shooting.
It was a squadron leader of the Japanese cavalry. He held his command sword upright in one hand and sat upright on his horse. The horse walked forward slowly and step by step.
Battalion Commander Tong came over, took a rifle from a soldier, cocked the bolt, inserted a bullet, raised the gun, took aim, and hit it right between the eyebrows. The Japanese Cavalry Squadron Leader turned off the gun.
After killing the Japanese cavalry squadron leader, Battalion Commander Tong, who was experienced in combat, immediately ordered: "Give me the order. One company and one platoon will stay and continue to block the attack. The others will follow me and withdraw to the ancient city."
"yes."
"Retreat quickly, the Japs will definitely retaliate with artillery fire." Battalion Commander Tong shouted loudly, and the company commanders also hurriedly urged the brothers to evacuate quickly.
