As the covering force, Kondo's squadron was the first to react. Seeing that the retreat was cut off, Kondohara was so anxious that he didn't care about any tactics and directed the little devils to launch a reverse charge.
Zhou Weihan did not lead Ren Ren and Jing Dagang to meet at the top of the mountain. Instead, he distributed his people on the hillside and along the mountain road.
"Look for favorable terrain immediately and stop them on the spot." Zhou Weihan shouted loudly.
It's not that Zhou Weihan didn't want to fight in the dug trenches, it was because the trenches that originally only stationed one company of the Shanxi-Sui Army could not accommodate the thousands of men from the New Second Regiment, so many soldiers could only lie down on the hillside and shoot.
Perhaps Zhou Weihan was too conspicuous. As soon as he finished speaking, a grenade from a grenade flew towards Zhou Weihan as if it had eyes.
Fortunately, Wei Dayong on the side reacted quickly enough and dragged Zhou Weihan to the ground. The grenade exploded four to five meters away.
Zhou Weihan coughed a few times and patted the dirt on his body: "Monk, monk, are you okay?"
"It's okay, Captain, it's just a few small cuts caused by the splashed stones," the monk said.
"It's okay, hurry up, move first"
"The artillerymen are all for a living. Please knock down the enemy's firepower points." Zhou Weihan shouted.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The artillerymen of the New Second Regiment began to counterattack, and the sharp sound of mortar firing sounded in the air again.
The grenade that was still showing off its power just now was blown up in an instant, and several grenadier hands were blown away. The pieces of meat were flying in the sky, and the blood stained the scorched earth.
"Okay, let's fight like this to suppress the firepower of the little devil." Zhou Weihan said in relief.
At this time, four Maxim heavy machine guns had been set up, and the machine gunners frantically operated the heavy machine guns to pour out firepower on the charging Japs.
"Tud, Tut, Tut" the heavy machine gun sprayed out dazzling tongues of flame, and the lines of fire roared towards the little devil.
The dozen or so little devils who were the first to rush over were immediately beaten to pieces, and the attack was halted.
"Baga, where did so many enemies come from?" Nishiya Jiro and Kondohara, who hurriedly withdrew from the attack, hid behind a hill.
"I'm afraid Nakamura Nakamura is in pieces. Nishiya-kun, only by working together can we break out of the enemy's encirclement." Kondowara said.
"Hey, Kondo-kun, please give me an order!" Nishiya Jiro clearly realized that survival is the most important thing.
"The firepower of the enemy behind us is too fierce. We just launched a charge and more than half of our troops were injured. The enemy's gunfire in this direction is sparse. We can unite our troops and break through." None of the officers of the little devil are good at it.
In this emergency situation, Kondohara was actually keen to find the weak point of the encirclement's defense.
"The Jinsui Army position seems to have the intention of ceasefire. We can distance ourselves from the Eighth Route Army behind us and focus on the west side." Nishiya Jiro said boldly.
"Yo Xi, that's great. The artillery fire will hit the enemy on the west side and open a gap."
"Warriors, it's time to serve the Emperor. Let's give it a try." Kondohara pulled out the command sword in his hand and said crazily.
This is the Fourth Independent Regiment.
"Captain, the kid seems to be trying to break out in our direction." Fang Yi, the first company commander of the Fourth Independent Regiment, pointed at the kid charging towards us.
"Damn it, the little devil was hurt by the beating from the New Second Regiment, and they want to pinch our soft persimmon. Comrades, block the little devil's attack for me. When the little devil gets close, quickly start a hand-to-hand combat to entangle the enemy.
We can't let the little devil escape." Yan Guoming shouted loudly.
"Captain, the little devil is trying to escape." Dong Jiang also noticed this situation.
"If something bad happens, Commander Yan and his team are almost unsafe to defend. Dong Jiang, you immediately rush forward with your guard company and bite the little devil."
At this time, the remaining 150 or so little Japs charged at the position of the Fourth Independent Regiment under the cover of artillery fire.
On the position of the 386th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, there was silence at this time.
"Batalion Commander, are we just going to watch the little Japs slip away from our eyes?" Shi Dong, commander of the 5th Company of the 386th Regiment's 2nd Battalion, said.
"Alas, the regiment headquarters ordered that anyone who leaves the position without authorization be killed, but the supervising team's gun just missed our brothers' heads." said the second battalion commander Bian Chengquan.
"Damn, I'm really an expert in civil war, but an outsider in foreign war. I've had enough of this wimp Guo Wenzhi. How long has it been since then, and I'm still thinking about this? Did the brothers in front of me sacrifice their lives in vain?" Shi Dongyi pointed out.
said.
"Keep your voice down, just tell me this, but don't..." Bian Chengquan advised.
The position of the Fourth Independent Regiment was a small hilly area. The Japs first bombarded the position with long-range artillery fire. The infantry simultaneously braved the artillery fire and launched a charge. As soon as the Fourth Independent Regiment showed up to counterattack, two machine guns were hit by the Japs' grenades.
Blow up.
Seeing that the little Japanese were about to rush to the position, Yan Guoming shouted: "Everyone has bayonets fixed, charge."
More than 700 people from the Fourth Independent Regiment stood up in a crowd. Some had bayonets on them, and some were holding broadswords. Under the sunlight, they were covered in white.
Heavy breathing sounded all around, and everyone's eyes were staring straight ahead.
"Kill!" The shouts of more than 700 soldiers shook the sky. The little devil's charging momentum stopped. In the blink of an eye, the leading troops of the two groups were fighting with each other. The swords were bloody and people kept falling.
, when he fell, he did not forget to fire the grenade on his waist and died with the little devil.
Fortunately, Dong Jiang and his men arrived in time and bit the little devil's butt firmly.
Four or five people gathered in a group and kept firing in short bursts. At such a close distance, the flower machine showed its sharpness, and the little devils behind kept falling.
By the time the large forces of the New Second Regiment arrived, the overall situation had been decided, and only a few little Japs were still resisting on the battlefield.
"Quickly eliminate the remaining enemies and leave no one alive." Zhou Weihan shouted loudly.
On the other side, Guo Wenzhi had also rushed to the front line. Seeing that the situation was excellent, he smiled and shouted: "Send my order and everyone will attack."
When the soldiers of the 386th Regiment on the position heard the order, they rushed out of the position in a hurry.
"Haha, what a great victory, what a great victory." Guo Wenzhi could no longer hold back his pride and laughed loudly.
"They all commanded the regiment well. When Commander Yan learns this news, he will definitely reward you." Yu Tiansheng said flatteringly beside him.
"Adjutant Yu immediately sent a report to the World War II District Chief's Department, saying that the Japanese army gathered heavy troops to attack the Taohuashan position of our 386th Regiment. After our department's tenacious resistance, more than a thousand Japanese soldiers were killed and the Japanese commander Masao Nakamura was killed, and the Sankan Sword was seized.
A handful." Guo Wenzhi said after thinking for a while.
"Tuanzuo, where is the Eighth Route Army?" Yu Tiansheng said worriedly.
"Do you think Shangfeng cares about the Eighth Route Army? It's too late for Shangfeng to be afraid of an army without an organization? Can we still ask for credit from him?" Guo Wenzhi said with a smile.
"Adjutant Yu, you must learn to figure out the intention of going up to the peak." Guo Wenzhi patted Yu Tiansheng on the shoulder and said.
