"Give me some!" Jing Minming looked crazy, like a gambler who lost his money, and roared with all his strength.
The offensive force commanded by Jing Minming faced the new regiment of the Southwest Shandong Military Division. Each infantry squad of the new regiment had a light machine gun. The heavy machine gun was expanded from two companies to three companies after the reorganization, which was enough.
There are 27 heavy machine guns, most of which are Maxim heavy machine guns.
In this way, each garrisoned stronghold has a heavy machine gun as a firepower point, plus 50 small artillery pieces and an artillery company directly under the regiment headquarters as fire support.
After the reinforcements arrived, the tug-of-war between the two sides suddenly turned into a unilateral massacre by the Eighth Route Army.
Under the pressure of a supervisory team composed of more than a hundred Japanese troops, groups of appeasement army soldiers were driven into the river. They could only bite the bullet and launch an attack on the Eighth Route Army positions on the other side. Anyone who hesitated would be killed on the spot by the Japanese army.
Shoot.
As far as the eye can see, corpses are strewn across the middle of the river, and the blood turns the shallow river water red. The soldiers of the following appeasement army can only step on the corpses. Many soldiers of the appeasement army are still alive, but they are trampled to death by the follow-up attacking troops who panic and choose their way.
"Sir, we can't go on like this. The Japanese have gone crazy and don't regard our brothers as human beings. In just a short time, the six-way offensive force has already killed and injured more than 700 people, including those who died at the hands of the Japanese."
Not a few!" The commander of the 1st Regiment of the 38th Division couldn't bear it anymore, so he changed into a soldier's uniform and secretly found Sun Liangcheng to complain.
"As the leader of the regiment, if you leave the battlefield privately, if Jing Minming finds out, he can kill you to show his authority. Even I won't be able to save you, so why don't you go back!" Sun Liangcheng said in a deep voice.
"But, the military seat..."
"roll!"
The regimental commander grinned helplessly, turned around and ran quietly towards the forward position.
Zhao Yunxiang on the side saw this, waved his hand to shield the people around him, and said worriedly to Sun Liangcheng: "Military, what he said makes sense. If this continues, our capital will be wiped out. This is not how wars are fought.
This is completely using the lives of brothers to fill the gap!"
"Is it useful to just be anxious? There are more than 500 people in the several direct teams currently under control. In addition, which front-line troops can you contact?" Sun Liangcheng was also anxious.
However, as the leader of an army, everything he does can be seen by those around him, so the superficial skills still need to be done properly.
If Araki Sadahiro and Kurojima Morita and others treat the officers and soldiers of the Appeasement Army as slaves, then in the eyes of Mitsuo Nakazawa, these appeasement troops are probably no different from wild dogs on the roadside. From the beginning, Mitsuo Nakazawa
There was the idea of letting the appeasement army consume the strength of the Eighth Route Army.

Before the battle began, some units of the Japanese army and the appeasement army changed their uniforms. Some of the Japanese army disguised themselves as the appeasement army, and some of the appeasement army disguised themselves as the Japanese army.
When the Japanese army and the appeasement army were changing their uniforms, the middle and lower-level officers and soldiers of the appeasement army lost contact with Shangfeng. Taking advantage of this gap, the Japanese troops from all walks of life who had already assigned their attack routes directly led the appeasement army into organized groups.
Sun Liangcheng and Zhao Yunxiang unknowingly lost contact with the troops. By the time they reacted, the attacking troops had already rushed to the crossing point. Nakazawa Mitsuo did not put the two under house arrest, but they had since lost contact with the Japanese.
The capital of people's dealings.
"Then we can't just go on like this?"
"Hmph, I think it's clear now. Who will win in the end in this battle between the Japanese and the Eighth Route Army?" Sun Liangcheng asked.
"Here, Military Seat, we are currently unable to fully understand the actual situation on the frontline battlefield, but judging from the situation of one regiment alone, the Eighth Route Army's defense line on the north bank of the Yellow River is impregnable, and the attacking troops suffered heavy losses. From this, it can be inferred that other routes and even
The situation of the Japanese offensive troops is also not optimistic. The Japanese have hit an iron plate this time!" Zhao Yunxiang calmed down and analyzed it clearly.
"Yes, Zhou Weihan is a difficult opponent. Several Japanese generals have died in his hands. However, these little devils from the 16th Division do not believe in evil. I don't know what the old devil Harada Kumakichi thinks.
, arrange for this group of guys who don’t know how to be noble to come and die!" Sun Liangcheng said.
"Military seat, I estimate that the old course of the Yellow River also flows through the territory of Dongming. I am afraid that the Japanese army of the 35th Division has not benefited now. How strong can it be? In terms of combat effectiveness, the Japanese army of the 16th Division are much stronger.
To the Japanese troops of the 35th Division!" Zhao Yunxiang was quite gloating about his misfortune.
"That's right, so no matter who wins in the end, the Japanese army of the 35th Division must have suffered losses in terms of strength. In the past two years, the Japanese army's divisions have successively recruited new soldiers, and their combat effectiveness has generally declined drastically!"
"If the Eighth Route Army is wiped out and the area occupied by the Japanese army expands, we will be required to maintain local security. If the Japanese are defeated, we will need our appeasement army to act as a facade. We will get back as much as we lose!" Sun Liangcheng immediately started talking.
Turning around, his tone suddenly became tragic: "It's just a pain to those brothers who are fighting on the front line. I wonder how many people will be left after the war?"
After Zhao Yunxiang heard this, he muttered twice, and finally sighed deeply and said nothing.
After synthesizing the battlefield conditions reported by various Japanese troops, Nakazawa Mitsuo was keenly aware that the Eighth Route Army upstream was extremely powerful, so he deliberately selected the crossing point of the nearly 900 Japanese troops gathered in the defense area of the 41st Regiment.
On the battlefield, in addition to fighting for hard power, the investigation of battlefield information can also play a decisive role.
Just behind the Japanese army, more than thirty soldiers from the reconnaissance company, led by acting company commander Cao Dabao, secretly observed every move of the Japanese army.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! A soldier from the reconnaissance company wearing a Japanese military uniform quietly slipped into a grass ditch. The leader said eagerly: "Company commander, there is something going on.
!”
"Say it!"
"My group was ordered to lurk in the Japanese army's supply troops. About half an hour ago, we suddenly received an order to transport a batch of ammunition supplies to the front line. When we arrived at the location, we saw that almost a thousand Japanese soldiers had already gathered.
, and there are also twelve 75mm mountain guns!"
"Are these little devils gathered together from the Sixteenth Division?" Cao Dabao asked.
"You can't be wrong. The local Japs from Shangqiu have either become part of the supply force or been assigned to guard the rear. This group of Japs has a murderous look on their faces, which is completely different from the Japs from Shangqiu!"
Cao Dabao's head turned very quickly, and he immediately thought of the Japanese army's purpose: "That's bad, the little Japanese secretly mobilized their troops and prepared to break through the defense line from other positions!"
"Map, point out the location!"
The soldiers of the reconnaissance company who were reporting carefully searched on the map, and then pointed at a certain village on the map: "Twelve or three miles north of Lijiaji, that is where the little devils gathered. If you guessed correctly, the Japanese army
Just cross the river from here!"
When Cao Dabao heard this, he did not immediately report it to his superiors. The reason was that if the Japanese army wanted to cross the river, there were too many places to choose from.
"Correspondent, immediately use the walkie-talkie to directly contact the Southwestern Shandong Army Division Headquarters and report the situation!" After Cao Dabao finished speaking, he turned to look at the soldiers who came to report and said: "Go back immediately and confront the Japanese army with your team leader.
Check your whereabouts carefully!”
"Yes!" the soldier nodded in response, and then said hesitantly: "Company commander, before we came here, our team leader asked me to bring a low-power walkie-talkie back. He hid it in his military boots so that the little devils couldn't find it!"
"Get him one!" Cao Dabao said.
After hearing this, the soldier immediately beamed with joy. Just as he was about to reach out to take it, his outstretched hand was slapped back by Cao Dabao: "I tell you, this thing is very valuable. Even if our reconnaissance company is assassinated,
Special care, only these few, you have to protect them for me!"
"Company Commander, even if I lose my life, I can't lose my walkie-talkie!"
On the other end, Li Yunlong, who was at the Southwestern Shandong Army Division Headquarters, had received reports from the reconnaissance company about the movements of the Japanese troops.
"Hey, I thought these little devils were really stubborn, but I didn't expect to meet a commander who can adapt. This battle is becoming more and more interesting!" Li Yunlong said with a smile.
"Old Li, you are already furious, are you still in the mood to laugh? The reserve teams of the New Regiment and the 41st Regiment have all gone up. At this time, the Japanese army has gathered heavy troops. The strongholds around the selected location are empty of troops, and other battlefields are being fought.
How many reinforcements can be mobilized?" Luo Benzhong said dissatisfied.
"You're right. It's time for the troops directly under the military division to take the lead. Huzi, give me the order. The guard camp and the supply camp will rush to the vicinity of strongholds 31 to 35 for reinforcements. They must stop the Japanese attack.
!" Li Yunlong said with determination.
"The situation is about the same now. After intercepting these little devils, the Japanese offensive force will have to be reduced by at least half. Our Southwest Shandong Military Division can report to our superiors!" Li Yunlong said, smashing and smashing.
From the perspective of the entire Hebei, Shandong and Henan region, the battles in Caoxian and Dongming were the most intense. The group of Japanese troops, personally commanded by Harada Xiongji, the commander of the 35th Division, sent troops from Lanfeng.
Directly pointed at Dongming.
Cooperating with them were the remaining Japanese troops of the Independent First Mixed Brigade in the Liangpu area, attacking our Eighth Route Army armed forces in Dongming territory from the north and south.
Before the war, Zhou Weihan ordered Wu Qin to be appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Western Front battlefield, directly in charge of the three regiments, the 40th regiment, and the fifth and 29th regiments transferred from the Tainan Military Region, with a strength of 8,000.
Confronting more than 5,000 Japanese troops of the 35th Division on the old route of the Yellow River were the 3rd Regiment and the 40th Regiment, which were familiar with the situation on the front line. Li Daben's 5th Regiment and the 1st Battalion of the 29th Regiment acted as reserve teams. Guo Huaiwu led the rest of the 29th Regiment.
The troops divided up and annihilated more than 600 Japanese and puppet troops who came from Liangpu for reinforcements.
The enemy forces in Dongming are purely composed of Japanese troops. Although their combat effectiveness has declined in recent years, they still cannot be underestimated.
Harada Xiongyoshi adopted a key breakthrough tactic. In addition to the nearly 1,400 Japanese troops from the two artillery brigades, the remaining Japanese troops from an infantry regiment were divided into three groups based on the group. Under the cover of artillery fire, they attacked the Eighth Route Army on the north bank of the Yellow River.
The troops launched an offensive.
The Japanese army's tactics were very effective. The battle had just begun. Faced with the Japanese army's human wave tactics, the attacked stronghold was breached in one fell swoop. Fortunately, the reserve team stepped forward in time and quickly eliminated the Japanese advance troops who first landed, thus intercepting the enemy.
The Japanese army attacked like a tide.
However, the battle situation became intense from the beginning. Both sides suffered injuries. Facing the Japanese artillery superiority, Wu Qin had to concentrate the artillery of the three regiments. A total of 12 Type 92 infantry cannons and two mountain cannons were used against the Japanese.
One of the artillery positions along the way carried out counterattacks.
Inside the headquarters, the situation on the front line was constantly reported.
"I said, there is no way for us to continue fighting like this. Isn't this a waste of money? The little devils are determined to fight the human wave tactic. Although we have the advantage of the fortifications, the casualties are not small!" Li Da is very capable!
He said distressedly.
"What, are you feeling distressed?" Wu Qin picked up the teapot and asked nonchalantly.
"It's a lie to say that I don't feel bad. Damn it. I was quite happy before I came here. After all, I haven't fought a big battle for a long time. Who knew that when I arrived in Hebei, Luyu, I was dumbfounded. As far as I could see, it was boundless.
The Great Plains are completely different from what we have in Tainan!"
Li Daben felt heartbroken. The fifth regiment was originally a reserve force, but now it suddenly became the main force in the battle. The troops stationed in other strongholds of the third regiment and the 40th regiment did not have any fighting.
.
"What? Are you planning to stay in the ravine for the rest of your life? The little devils are now waging war everywhere, and they won't be able to bear it for much longer. From now on, fighting on the plains and attacking cities will be the norm. Our Eighth Route Army troops will inevitably change their combat concepts in the future. We must adapt even if we can't adapt.
Communist Party members have talked about this before!" Wu Qin said.
Li Da's ability was not as long-term as Wu Qin's. He just combined the current battle situation and said again: "Then now, should we ask the strongholds where there is no fighting to allocate troops for reinforcements? There are so many strongholds along the line that are not fighting, so we can't just watch?
"
"I have considered this idea, but there is no rush now. Although these three Japanese offensives are fierce, they will not be able to break through the defense line for a while. I am waiting for the Japanese army to transfer their troops to other places to cross the river. What the Communist Party members just reported
The war situation in Caoxian County must be guarded against!"
After Wu Qin finished speaking, he turned around and said: "Give me the order, whether it is small artillery, infantry artillery or mountain artillery, don't consider the consumption of shells, concentrate your firepower to severely damage the Japanese troops along the way. I don't believe these little devils don't know how to feel pain!"
At the beginning of the battle, the Japanese artillery position was slightly closer to the battlefield. Later, after the Eighth Route Army's artillery reinforcements were in place and the Japanese artillery was damaged, the position was decisively moved back.
In terms of range, the mountain artillery is much farther than the Type 92 infantry artillery, but after all, it is not as flexible as the infantry artillery. While the Japanese artillery is chasing cats with the Eighth Route Army artillery, the grenade group that has been suppressed has exerted its firepower advantage.
It caused great damage to the Japanese attacking troops.
