There are no anti-aircraft weapons. This is the flaw of the supervision team at this time. Without enough anti-aircraft weapons, they are the same as those anti-Japanese comrades who died in the Battle of Songhu. It is not because they are not strong enough, but because the little Japanese have sea and air support.
.
Therefore, in order to close the gap, Dragon Boat Festival must play a hide-and-seek game with the Japs, and complete all battles at night as much as possible, so that the Japs' air superiority is gone.
As for the little devil’s artillery? Let’s compare it with him during the Dragon Boat Festival. Anyway, he seized nearly a thousand rounds of various types of artillery shells in Xintai County.
There were even times when Duanwu felt that the Japs were being too kind to him and actually hoarded so many artillery shells in Xintai County.
Of course, Doihara didn't want to, because Xintai County has always been a weapons transfer station. And he has made multiple arrangements in Xintai County. But who would have thought that the Fourth Division would not listen to his orders at all, and the only
Miss Yingzi, who could talk to the Fourth Division, was killed by Zheng Yaoxian.
And Zheng Yaoxian never thought that he would become the most important part of the battle in Xintai County. If he hadn't hunted down Yingzi, then Yingzi might have let Rongtian do it during the Dragon Boat Festival surprise attack on Xintai County.
If the Japanese go to the arsenal for reinforcements, they can at least transport away the artillery shells and bullets loaded in the arsenal.
In this case, although Dragon Boat Festival can obtain some ammunition, it will definitely not be as much as now.
At this time, although the supervision team has not been restored to its peak condition, the artillery shells and machine gun bullets have been greatly supplemented.
It can be said that at this time, no Japanese army would have stronger firepower and more machine guns than the Dragon Boat Festival.
So you can imagine the battle at the fork east of Shanghe Village.
However, it depends on who can occupy the three highlands here first.
The Dragon Boat Festival calls it Highland No. 1, No. 2, No. 3.
There are two highlands on the west and one on the east. The mountains are not very high, only about twenty or thirty meters.
There are no trees on the mountain, it is bare.
But even so, it still has far more advantages than fighting on the plains.
Therefore, after receiving the intelligence, Duanwu ordered Zhu Shengzhong to personally lead a team to seize these three highlands.
At the same time, the little devils thought the same thing. Duanwu captured the Erhe post, and the little devils had received the news. They must rush ahead to occupy the high ground here and block the Dragon Boat Festival supervision team.
So Zhu Shengzhong and the two little devils arrived at the fork in the road almost at the same time.
But at this time, the little devil and Zhu Shengzhong did not exchange fire, but led their men to attack three highlands.
Zhu Shengzhong is closest to the highland in the southwest, while the other two little devils are located in the northwest and closest to the highland in the northeast.
So five minutes later, the three teams occupied three highlands respectively, and then started fierce shooting.
The distance between the three highlands is not very far, the farthest can reach 500 meters, while the closest distance is only 300 meters.
So with the help of machine guns, you can definitely hit the opponent.
It's just that now at night, it's not that easy to hit the opponent.
Zhu Shengzhong said to his first company commander: "We have only occupied one of the three highlands. We must at least capture the highlands on the west side as well."
The first company commander said: "The camp, then leave it to me. I and my men will definitely be able to capture this highland in the northwest."
Zhu Shengzhong nodded, patted the other party's shoulder and said: "Good brother, it's all up to you. Take advantage of the little Japs before he has a firm foothold. Otherwise, if the Japs' large army arrives, we will all be stuck here.
"
"yes!"
The commander of the first company took the order and led the first company down to the high ground.
Since it was dark at this time, as long as the soldiers sheathed their swords and took off any reflective items on their bodies, it would not be easy for the little Japs to spot them.
Before, the reason why Zhu Shengzhong and the little devil discovered each other was because both sides were marching in a hurry with lighting equipment.
Although there is a faint light at night, it is completely impossible to march quickly with this little light.
Therefore, the previous Japs and Zhu Shengzhong were marching quickly with flashlights and other lighting equipment, so they could see each other a few hundred meters apart.
But at this time, the soldiers of a company had their bayonets sheathed and all the helmets on their heads discarded. Like ghosts in the night, they quietly moved toward the high ground northwest of the Japanese.
The little Japs' attention was focused on Zhu Shengzhong on the southwest highland, and they were cooperating with the Japs on the east side to carry out machine gun suppression.
The Supervisory Corps had too many machine guns for a single Japanese force to suppress. After all, like Zhu Shengzhong, they were all lightly armed and only carried light weapons to seize advantageous terrain. And they were not many in number.
Therefore, we can compete with Zhu Shengzhong from two directions. We only hope to withstand the attack of the supervision team and wait for the arrival of reinforcements.
However, they did not expect that the opponent would move so quickly, and after a brief exchange of fire, they quickly sent out attacking troops.
And when the company reached the foot of the mountain, some Japanese soldiers discovered that there was someone at the foot of the mountain.
But by that time it was already too late.
As mentioned before, these three highlands are only about twenty or thirty meters high, with a slope of about 35 degrees. So the distance from the foot of the mountain to the top is less than a hundred meters.
So when the little devil found someone at the foot of the mountain, the first company commander had already led his men to charge.
Spotting the kid from the first company, he yelled, and the kid turned his gun and rushed toward the charging company.
The Japs' machine guns fired down the mountain. Although the Japs machine gunners couldn't see clearly, at least three or four soldiers from the same company were hit by this firing.
The first company commander knew that the Japs had discovered them and immediately asked the machine gunner to open fire.
The Jaap machine gunner was still firing, but in the next second he was hit by two machine gun bullets, and he fell down.
But at the same time, more Japs began to shoot at the foot of the mountain. The casualties of the company further increased.
But the company is not a vegetarian, and there are many machine guns. As long as you see the flames after the little devil shoots, the machine guns will immediately sweep over.
The little devils suffered heavy casualties in an instant, but these little devils seemed to be possessed, and they immediately added more dead people.
But to put it bluntly, if they don't block the charging company, I'm afraid they will all die if they charge forward.
It can be said that the Supervisory Corps has always been a nightmare for little Japs. Too many little Japs have died at the hands of the Supervisory Corps.
So although these little devils are fighting against the supervision team, they are actually always afraid.
This is like a person who kills dogs. Even if he encounters a vicious dog, the vicious dog will be afraid of him.
The same goes for the little devils at this time, they are fighting desperately because of fear.
However, their efforts were completely in vain. Zhu Shengzhong's battalion was the main battalion. Apart from the special agent battalion, they were the most capable battalion of the Supervisory Corps!
