Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

In this case, even if the second regiment leader thought the chief of staff's suggestion was good, he still expressed his opposition.After all, it is impossible for him to transfer too much risk to the cooperation of other troops.

The most important thing is that after the independent column launched the frontal offensive on Datong, many people in the base areas came out to cooperate in the battle.These former civilians and guerrillas are the main force of material transportation for the main force.

Not to mention escaping from a Japanese infantry brigade, even if a Japanese squad escapes from the defense zone, it may cause heavy casualties to these former civilians and guerrillas.Under such circumstances, how dare the second regiment leader take risks?

Hearing the commander's order, the chief of staff thought for a while and said, "Yes, anyway, we are not in a hurry, it's not bad to let the little devils worry a little bit! Let's wait and see how many troops the little devils in the city will send. "

As the chief of staff issued the blocking order, a battalion of a main company was also deployed in the blocking position outside the city, and soon another company was transferred to the blocking position.They actually heard the gunshots from the reconnaissance squad.

Not long after, the first battalion commander who came to the blocking position to direct the battle soon heard the sound of explosions coming from the front.The battalion commander who stayed at the headquarters said a little worriedly: "Is this the sound of the little devil's mortars? They are all firing!"

The instructor of the first battalion who was staying beside him smiled and said: "Battle Commander, when you meet people from the reconnaissance company, the little devil can't move his guns, so he probably won't be able to pass through their blocking line. It shouldn't be easy for the little devil to deal with them." Bar!"

When the two talked about the sound of the little devil's mortar, the members of the reconnaissance team were also ready to evacuate.Although they came here to scout, they also dug fortifications.

After all, it is undoubtedly safer and warmer to lie on the snow than to lie on the dug fortifications.

For this reason, when the Japanese squadron who came to aid sent another team to attack.The scouts lying in the fortifications exchanged fire with these little devils rushing towards the hillside again, but each only fired five bullets.

As for the machine gunners, they retreated before the exchange of fire.Put on your ski gear and be ready to hit the slopes on the other side.But he also needs to wait for the rest of the squad to come.

The rest of the squad ducked back from the trenches as the mortars flew up the hill.Come to the side of the hillside and put on the ski equipment quickly.Until the team leader gave the order to withdraw, the group quickly slid and evacuated from the hillside.

Hearing the sound of explosions behind them, the team slid down the hillside not long after, throwing the attacking Japanese army far away.The Japanese army attacking on the hillside finally succeeded in reconnaissance within the range of [-] meters previously blocked by the reconnaissance unit.

It was just that the squadron leader of the Japanese army who was watching the battle below was somewhat surprised when he heard that the guns suddenly stopped firing on the hillside.

Before the additional troop team went up the mountain, the little devil who successfully went up the mountain also knew that he couldn't let the other party run away.After all, after the previous two rounds of blocking, they left nearly half a hundred corpses on this hillside!

Just when several Japanese soldiers accelerated their pace and rushed up, hoping to reach the highest position on the hillside earlier.One of the Japanese soldiers suddenly felt as if his leg was tripped by some silk thread.

Just as he lowered his head to check what it was, a Japanese soldier next to him said in horror: "Baga, grenade!"

When he turned his head to check, several Japanese soldiers saw the little devil, and suddenly two explosions sounded, searching the advancing little devil around him, and they all fell to the ground in an instant.Some people were directly killed by the bombing, while others were screamed and fell to the ground.

The rest of the searching Japanese army undoubtedly looked very cautious when they saw this situation.Every step forward, the ground will be carefully searched.But how could the trip-type booby traps deployed by the scouts be so easy to see?

When the follow-up reinforcement team caught up, they dropped more than a dozen corpses within a short range of [-] meters.Even the ordinary soldiers who cooperated in the battle did not dare to take the initiative to step forward, for fear of touching the grenade buried under the snow.

The results were obvious, until someone finally made it to the top of the hill.What I saw were the trenches left by the reconnaissance team's retreat, and the blocking team that disappeared out of thin air.

The team leader who led the search looked at the long snow marks on the hillside, and said in surprise, "Baga, how did the Eighth Route Army escape? Why can't we see the footprints they left behind?"

Although it is guessed that the traces left by these skis must have been left by the retreating reconnaissance team.But for the Japanese squad leader, he still couldn't figure out what left such traces.

Although in the Northeast, there are also many people who use plows to transport goods.However, equipment like this kind of single skiing is still rare in this era.It's normal for the little devil to not understand this trace!

Knowing that the ambush had disappeared, and seeing the corpses being carried down one after another, and the wounded soldiers being carried on stretchers, the Japanese infantry captain who arrived later also looked a little dignified and helpless.

Although this was just a confrontation between scouts, judging from the situation of the fight, his outpost guards were undoubtedly completely defeated.Even from the beginning to the end, the outpost guards didn't know who it was that had ambushed them on the hillside.

Even if they all thought it was the Eighth Route Army, they didn't see the Eighth Route Army until the end of the battle.Such a situation undoubtedly made the infantry captain who commanded the battle feel a chill from the bottom of his heart.

Since when did the troops under his command fail so thoroughly in this kind of confrontation?If the ordinary soldiers recruited were useless, the more than 20 Japanese soldiers who suffered casualties were all elites of the infantry brigade!

These people, in the previous battles, also failed to exert their due effect, and became the first soldiers killed in this battle out of the city.Facing such a blow, how could the infantry captain feel better?

The infantry brigade briefly cleaned up the battlefield, sent a small team to transport the wounded soldiers and corpses back to the city, and the rest of the troops continued on the road.For them, fate seems to be doomed from the moment they leave the city.

Either they broke through the siege of the Eighth Route Army and found a chance of survival outside the city.Either they were besieged and annihilated by the Eighth Route Army, half disabled, or the entire army was wiped out outside the city, letting the Japanese army in the city know that going out of the city was a very risky thing.

Compared with the infantry brigade that bumped into a pack as soon as they left the city, the atmosphere in the blocking position of the first battalion at this moment seemed much happier.Seeing the reconnaissance team returning safely, the officers and soldiers of the first battalion seemed very happy.

"A battalion commander, we took a look just now, and the little devil who left the city didn't carry any heavy weapons.However, it is equipped with a mortar squadron, and a lot of grenadiers are also equipped.Wait, let comrades be careful. '

'good!Thank you for the news you brought back. The chief of staff has called before, and the mortar company directly under the regiment will come for reinforcements.In addition, our battalion also has a mortar platoon. It is not so easy for the little devil to pass through my blocking position! '

As the main division of the independent column, He Zhengdao basically assigned mortars to battalion-level units.Similar to the Second Division and the Second Regiment, which is currently in charge of encircling the Japanese army in Datong, it is equipped with a mortar company.

The most important thing is that the first and second divisions are also independent columns, the main divisions equipped with the most Japanese weapons.As far as the first battalion is concerned, they all use the standard rifles of the Japanese army.

In contrast, the infantry brigade that came out of Datong at this moment, the guns used by many infantry were not three or eight.Most of the weapons they used were guns used by the anti-Japanese troops captured by the Japanese army.

However, the weapons are relatively uniform.But like grenades and mortars, these infantry brigades are equipped.But if it is the [-]nd infantry artillery, the independent guards still cannot afford to equip it.

Walking to a place only about five kilometers away from the city, I looked at the obvious fortifications on the two mountain ridges ahead.The outpost guard, served by a squadron, chose to stop advancing at the right time, and reported the news to the follow-up brigade.

'Yo breath!These eight roads are too arrogant to work, and they dare to set up blocking positions so close to us.Bage Yalu, let them know today how serious the price of angering our Emperor Da Ribo is! '

The infantry captain who said this also ordered the troops to advance quickly.Not far from the blocking position of the first battalion, prepare for the attack in due course.For them, being closer to Datong is also good.

But the captain of the infantry battalion also knew that even if it was only five or six kilometers away from Datong.But in this kind of weather and road conditions, if the troops in the city wanted to come for reinforcements, it would be difficult to arrive within an hour or two.

If you carry heavy weapons, similar to artillery that needs to be pulled by a cart, the speed is estimated to be slower.And after two kilometers out of the city, most of them are hills and hillsides, which are very suitable for ambushes!

In fact, as the infantry captain thought.When it was learned that the Japanese army had sent an infantry brigade out of the city, preparing to fight them.The Fourth Battalion of the Second Regiment, which served as the reserve team, had already begun to march in a detour.

What they have to do, apart from cutting off the retreat of this infantry brigade, is to block enemy reinforcements.As for the Japanese army going out of the city from other directions, they will be blocked by the Second Regiment.It is not so easy to leave Datong easily.

Although it seems a bit too bold to use a main battalion to block a Japanese infantry brigade.But for the second regiment commander, he only has four main battalions and one regiment directly under the reconnaissance company, and his strength is also not very sufficient.

As for the guerrilla brigades that cooperated with him, most of them are currently setting up ambushes in other places.If the little devils in Datong really swarmed out of the city, it is estimated that he would need to rescue them from above and send troops to reinforce them.

Fortunately, judging from the current situation, the Japanese army in Datong City only sent out one infantry brigade.Judging from the past situation, a Japanese infantry brigade should have no problem dealing with a main regiment of the Huaxia Anti-Japanese War Force.

Sending an infantry brigade out of the city is more of a test to see how many blocking troops the Eighth Route Army has set up on the road from Datong to Zhangjiakou.As for other directions, the Japanese army is not interested in exploring for the time being.

Looking at the Japanese infantry brigade at the foot of the mountain, they began to prepare for the attack.The battalion commander on the mountain also ordered the troops to prepare for battle.For the first battalion, it is somewhat stressful to deal with a Japanese infantry brigade alone.

It's just that many officers and soldiers knew that since the little devil came to his door on his own initiative, they couldn't let him go no matter what.After all, for many soldiers of the first battalion, this is a trophy delivered to their door!

As the main force of the independent column, most of the officers and soldiers of the first battalion lying in the blocking position now have experience in fighting the Japanese army.Looking at the little devil down the mountain and sending a squadron to attack, he knew what the little devil was up to.

Many platoon leaders directing the battle said: "Pay attention, the little devil is testing the firepower, and the heavy machine guns are not allowed to fire. Use rifles and light machine guns to drive them off. The little devil retreats, and the light machine gun shifts. Remember Living!"

'Yes, the company (platoon) leader, we all know the tricks of the little devil! '

For many Japanese troops, when they fought this kind of blocking positional warfare, they would first send a small group of troops to conduct a tentative attack.This is to find out the firepower points arranged by the opponent on the blocking position.

If they don't know their routine, the blocking troops will expose their heavy machine gun positions in advance.So at the foot of the mountain at this moment, the artillery who have already established mortar positions will carry out shelling according to calculations.

In this way, the heavy machine guns erected by the defenders may be destroyed.In the absence of heavy machine guns for defense, for the attacking Japanese army, it will undoubtedly reduce the casualties of the attacking troops.

But this set of tactics, not to mention the four main divisions of the independent column, even the commander of the garrison of the column, is already very clear.Even in order to prevent the heavy machine gun positions from being destroyed, reserve machine gun positions are often set up on the positions.
