After the pursuing Japanese and puppet troops entered the ambush circle, the main force of the 28th Regiment quickly divided into two parts, and the four battalions encircled them from the rear, blocking the retreat of the pursuing Japanese and puppet troops.
Ding Wei personally led the 1st Battalion, 3rd Battalion and the teams directly under the regiment headquarters to rush towards the exposed gap in the Japanese headquarters and immediately occupied the fortifications that originally belonged to the puppet army.
At this moment.
The four anti-aircraft machine guns operated by the Fourth Regiment and the First Battalion kept pouring firepower at the pursuing Japs, destroying all targets in sight, and the pursuit team was directly cut off.
Lao Maozi's anti-aircraft machine gun had a flat firing range of 1,500 meters. At this time, the distance between the first battalion and the Japanese army on the road was 1,000 meters, which was far beyond the range of the Japanese infantry.
The kid on the road had no cover, and he had no courage to attack the first battalion's position. The kid's body was directly smashed by the bullets from the anti-aircraft machine gun, causing a shower of blood.
"It's the anti-aircraft machine gun from Guancun Airport!" Jingcun Shangshu's face turned pale, and he immediately thought of Guancun Airport, which was destroyed by the Eighth Route Army.
After Guancun Airport was destroyed by the Fourth Regiment, Tanimura Koichi did not lead his troops back to Changzhi. Instead, he determined to destroy the New Regiment and the 28th Regiment in one go.
In the blink of an eye, most of the two Japanese squadrons that came out to pursue were killed.
The more than 600 puppet troops walking in front were frightened by the power of anti-aircraft machine guns. Fortunately, the focus of the Eighth Route Army's attack was on the Japanese side.
The puppet legionnaire who had been intimidated just now was unable to hold his legs, so his two confidants supported him on the left and right.
"What should we do, group members?" one person asked.
"What should I do? Haven't you seen the fate of the Japanese?" the puppet army commander asked, secretly glad that the Eighth Route Army was not willing to waste bullets on them.
The commander of the puppet army had no intention of counterattack, and ran forward with his troops. The other puppet troops followed suit and greased the soles of their feet one by one, for fear of being targeted by the Eighth Route Army.
On the anti-aircraft machine gun position, Zhang Hao, commander of the first battalion, saw the remarkable results and quickly shouted: "Stop shooting, stop shooting!"
Zhang Hao's order was completely covered up by the sound of the machine gun. The machine gunner did not respond and continued to operate the machine gun.
Zhang Hao had no choice but to notify one by one. The machine gunner who stopped patted his head, and there was a constant roar in his head.
After hearing the gunshots, the 4th Regiment and the 2nd and 4th Battalions of the 28th Regiment dared to charge towards the remaining Japs.
The puppet troops who were scurrying forward were blocked by soldiers from the third battalion of the fourth regiment and the second battalion of the 28th regiment who rushed up. The commander of the puppet army looked around, and there were shouts of killing everywhere. There was no way to go from heaven to earth.
I wish I had two wings and could fly out.
"Tuanzuo, we are surrounded!"
The leader of the puppet army calmed down and thought for a moment. Although he had become a traitor, he had no blood debt on his hands. He usually turned a blind eye when encountering the Eighth Route Army. He secretly did business with the Eighth Route Army, so he had better keep his son first.
Let's talk about fate.
So he shouted: "Brothers, don't panic, the Eighth Route Army treats prisoners well, put down your guns!"
After the commander of the puppet army finished speaking, he took the lead and threw the gun on the ground, followed by the sound of guns being thrown around.
"Oh, these puppet soldiers are quite smart!" Gan Caisheng arrived with the soldiers, only to see the puppet soldiers squatting on the ground holding their heads one by one.
The words are divided into two parts.
After Ding Wei made a big move by the Japanese army, Li Yunlong noticed it immediately.
"Ding Wei made a lot of noise this time, and even used mortars!" Li Yunlong saw through the telescope that artillery shells exploded on a hilltop from time to time.
"Hey, Ding Wei wants to go with me. That hilltop must be where the Japanese army's headquarters is!"
"Old Li, look, the attacking Japanese troops have retreated!" Luo Benzhong pointed at the little Japanese who had been attacking aggressively just now. All the heavy machine gun positions that had been set up were withdrawn.
"Our New Regiment's radio station is broken and we have lost contact with the 28th Regiment, but it doesn't matter, Ding Wei has already given the signal!"
"Correspondent, pass my order. The first battalion will launch an all-out counterattack from the front, the second battalion, and the third battalion from both sides!" Li Yunlong ordered decisively when he saw the retreating Japanese army approaching the hilltop where his headquarters was located.
"Old Li, why don't you wait a little longer? When the battle situation becomes clearer, we can counterattack. The Japs may pretend to retreat!" Luo Benzhong advised.
"Wait? Our new regiment is waiting. Is Ding Wei's 28th regiment waiting? When the fighter plan becomes clear, the day lily will be cold! You don't need to say any more, the fourth battalion will be led by you and serve as the reserve team!" Li Yunlong finished.
Without giving Luo Benzhong a chance to speak, he strode out of the headquarters.
"Tick-tock-tock!" the loud charge horn sounded.
The soldiers of the three battalions of the new regiment deployed in front jumped out of the trenches and rushed toward the retreating Japanese troops down the mountain.
Zhang Dabiao's first battalion rushed to the front and bit the retreating Japanese army. The third battalion on the left, led by Li Yunlong, went straight to the Japanese command post on the left front.
"Da da da!" The heavy machine gun squadron of the Japanese army that retreated first deployed four Type 92 heavy machine guns in this direction.
Caught off guard, the offensive of the third battalion was stopped immediately, and several soldiers in front were knocked to the ground.
Two soldiers rushed out carrying cluster grenades. Before they could get far, they were hit by heavy machine gun bullets one after another.
Li Yunlong's eyes were splitting when he saw it, and he immediately shouted: "Stop charging, Zhuzhu, what the hell are you doing? Give me the machine gun to kill the kid!"
Wang Chengzhu responded and quickly asked the soldiers of the artillery company to set up the two 82 mortars they carried.
Li Yunlong looked at the heavy machine guns that the Japs were wreaking havoc on, and his heart was filled with excitement. What a good heavy machine gun, it would be a pity if it exploded.
Thinking of this, Li Yunlong hurriedly found Wang Chengzhu: "Zhuzhu, do you have the cannonballs I asked you to bring?"
"Captain, do you really want to use special ammunition? Will it violate discipline?" Wang Chengzhu hesitated.
"Damn it, you're holding your shit up to your ass, you're telling me this? What else do you, an artillery company commander, want to do?" Li Yunlong cursed.
Wang Chengzhu looked at the angry Li Yunlong and did not dare to say anything. He quickly called on the soldiers to bring up two boxes of artillery shells.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! There is a skull symbol painted on the ammunition box, and Wang Chengzhu opened it carefully.
The soldiers next to him, including Li Yunlong, held their breath for fear of an accident.
Fortunately, under the command of Wang Chengzhu, six artillery shells flew into the Japanese machine gun position one after another.
Then I saw bursts of green gas rising from the Japanese position, while Li Yunlong and his soldiers stood still.
On the Japanese army's position.
"Baga, how could the Eighth Route Army have poisonous gas bombs!" Shigenobu Kageyama, the leader of the Japanese heavy machine gun squad, said in horror.
These little devils did not carry gas masks with them. Kageyama Shigenobu quickly took out a towel, poured some water from the kettle, and covered his mouth and nose.
The rest of the little devils who reacted slowly were not so lucky. They sneezed a few times, their lungs stung, and their heart rate increased. After a while, there was no movement.
The shells fired by Wang Chengzhu were sneeze gas bombs, also known as red bombs: they were light green solid in appearance and could paralyze the oxygen absorption function in the blood, causing people to sneeze, shed tears, and kill in a short period of time.
The poison gas bombs used by the Japanese army at that time mainly included the following types:
1. Green bombs. Also known as tear gas bombs, this gas bomb is the least powerful and harmful.
2. Red bombs. These bombs release poisonous gas that strongly stimulates the respiratory organs. They are commonly known as "sneeze bombs."
3. Yellow bomb. This is an erosive gas bomb, which can cause ulcers in the skin and mucous membranes after use.
4. Tea bomb. This gas bomb is filled with highly toxic poisonous gas, which can directly cause heart failure and death.
At that time, the Japanese army most often used "yellow bombs" and "red bombs" on the battlefield behind enemy lines.
Li Yunlong observed for a while and saw that there was no movement in the Japanese position and the poisonous gas gradually dissipated.
"If you have a gas mask, put it on, if you don't have one, wet a towel and cover your mouth and nose!" Li Yunlong shouted loudly, took the gas mask handed by Hu Zi, and rushed to the Japanese position first.
