When the little devil planes that came to support dumped all the ammunition they carried, they circled for a while and left over the town.He Zhengdao, who had been paying attention to the movement of the Japanese army, knew that it was the turn of the blocking forces to fight back.

"Jiang Shan, notify the frontline blocking forces to counterattack in an all-round way!"Let our troops rush into the town to encircle and annihilate the remaining little devils in the town.To the east, your reconnaissance brigade is responsible for the vanguard, allowing me to infiltrate the town as quickly as possible.

If I'm not mistaken, the little devil's chariot and heavy artillery unit never thought of leaving.They were left behind to stop us from pursuing their main force and delay our offensive speed.

Once they feel that they are unable to resist our attack, they will definitely blow up those heavy artillery and equipment.What your reconnaissance brigade has to do is to attack the little devils in the town and seize as much equipment as possible that the little devils in the town can't take away. '

'Yes, Commander! '

Following He Zhengdao's order, the little devil, who had switched from attack to defense, soon heard the charge of the Eighth Route Army's blocking position.The Eighth Route Army, which was originally in the blocking position, quickly jumped up from the trenches to launch a defensive counterattack.

'withstand!Give our main force time to break through, and the machine guns will fire with all their might! '

On the other hand, the Eighth Route Army at this moment is directly under the mortar unit to carry out a comprehensive counterattack.After the shells fell, the Eighth Route Army rushed down from the position and launched a full-scale counterattack against the Japanese troops who attacked earlier.

As the Eighth Route Army on the ground launched a counterattack, the Japanese army, which lost its air support, also fell into a state of complete collapse in the face of the Eighth Route Army encircled on three sides.At this moment, the cavalry and the commandos of the reconnaissance brigade also launched a surprise attack on the town!

Although the Japanese army was in the town earlier, they also set up many blocking positions.But for this kind of street fighting, the officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance brigade, who are the main force of the raid, have been able to fight skillfully and continue to advance towards the center of the town.

The bazooka, which was originally designed to deal with tanks, also brought a lot of convenience to the attacking reconnaissance team in this kind of street fighting.The solid fortifications built by the Japanese army are also difficult to withstand the attack of the rocket launcher.

By the time the second batch of planes arrived for air support, they could no longer find a target for them to bomb.The attacking Eighth Route Army troops were already entangled with the Japanese troops in the town, and they couldn't find the target even if they wanted to bomb.

In the face of the Eighth Route Army's infiltration attack on the town, the officers and soldiers of the heavy artillery brigade staying in the town have already made preparations before blasting.Looking at these artillery pieces, every Japanese officer and soldier seemed a little bit reluctant.

'fry!The Eighth Route Army is not far away from us, so they quickly blew up these cannons.After blasting the artillery, all go into battle! '

With the commanding officer, give the order to blast the artillery.The artillerymen of these heavy artillery brigades began to take the grenade they had prepared before, and after pulling out the latch, they threw it into the barrel.

Hearing the sound of explosions, each artilleryman gave up their proficient artillery, picked up the rifles and machine guns left by the previous main force, and began to fight against the Eighth Route Army's surprise attack.

The sound of the little devil destroying the artillery naturally couldn't be fooled by the assault unit of the reconnaissance brigade.The captain of the team also said anxiously: "Speed ​​up! These damned little devils are really going to blow up their cannons. You son of a bitch, I'm so willing!"

In addition to cursing, the speed of the reconnaissance team's assault has accelerated a lot.The car supply soldiers who also assembled in the small town also began to wrap explosives around the cars, preparing to blast these cars that were equally precious to the Japanese army.

It can be said that as the first-class division of the Japanese army, the vehicles and weapons equipped by the No. 12 division are undoubtedly the most valuable in the Japanese army.Now that they are required to destroy these weapons with their own hands, every little devil naturally feels bad.

Fortunately, at this time, the reconnaissance brigade 'Japanese Barracks' pretending to be the Japanese army has raided the area where the Japanese army car brigade is located.In the face of these disguised 'Japanese troops', the Japanese soldiers guarding here do not seem to be very vigilant.

When the two armies came into close combat, the 'Japanese Barracks' immediately launched a surprise attack.The car and heavy soldiers who were knocked to the ground immediately screamed: "Baga! They are the enemy, stop them, don't let them rush over!"

Unfortunately, it was too late for them to react at this time.The 'Japanese camp' that had surrounded them quickly took advantage of the assault guns in their hands and wiped them out in the area where the cars were parked.

Looking at the cars that hadn't been destroyed, the battalion commander of the 'Japanese Army Battalion' immediately said: "Launch defenses on the spot! Don't let the little devils rush over, these cars are good things, we can't let the little devils destroy them."

'Yes, Battalion Commander! '

The 'Japanese barracks' that launched defenses on the spot will soon put on the red army cap that can prove their identity.Even if it seemed a bit nondescript, it would not allow the officers and soldiers of the reconnaissance brigade who attacked later to accidentally injure them.

Seeing that Xiusan also looked a little sad when he received the farewell call from the stay-at-home officer in the town, he quickly said, "Report to the North China Front Army, and let our 6th Air Force implement a cover-type attack on the town we were stationed before." bombing."

At this moment, the Eighth Route Army troops that attacked the town also seized the time to transfer the previously seized weapons.As for the equipment that can't be taken away temporarily, they can only stay in the small town temporarily, waiting for the transfer at night or sometime.

After the last little devil in the town was killed, He Zhengdao quickly said: "Jiang Shan, order the troops to withdraw quickly and prepare for air defense. After the little devil's air force leaves, you can start chasing the Japanese army."

'Yes, Commander! '

In order to ensure the safety of the materials, the attacking troops who attacked the town also tried to transfer some materials to a relatively safe place.Doing this is also to prevent these materials and equipment from being blown up by the little devil's air force later.

When the Japanese bomber that received the telegram arrived over the town again.Looking at the town where gunshots could no longer be heard, the bomber formation that arrived also launched a cover bombing, throwing the whole town into a sea of ​​flames.

'It seems that the little devil is really ruthless!Without further ado, the town was directly bombed on a large scale.From the looks of it, they were the ones who cared a little about whether there were them in the town.Fortunately, we were evacuated from the town in time. '

Looking at the small town engulfed in flames, He Zhengdao was also very glad that the previous attacking troops had withdrawn.Even if there are some materials and equipment, there is no way to transfer them out for the time being.But the casualties of the troops are still the most important thing in He Zhengdao's view.

The battle on the first day ended in the town occupied by the No.12 Division before the capture.As for the main force of the No.12 division that broke out from the small town, it also entered a place not far from Kongjiagou as expected.

There, the quick responders have assembled and are waiting to be combined.Even if the terrain there is not as flat as the previous third brigade that was wiped out by the quick-reverse division.But He Zhengdao also knew that it was still suitable for tanks and armored vehicles to carry out assaults there.

Even the main force of the Japanese division that broke out from the town, except for carrying some small-caliber infantry artillery, almost all of their large-caliber artillery stayed in the town.All the artillery that people and horses could not take away, they all stayed in the town.

Although they only traveled less than [-] kilometers a day, for the main force of the Japanese divisions that broke out, their road to break out was also not smooth.But no matter what, they finally made it all the way here.

Because last night, the troops basically didn't have much rest.Hitomi Shuzo looked at the exhausted troops, so he could only order to camp on the spot. After arranging the defensive troops, he found Seitaro Yamamura again.

"General, it seems that we need at least one more day to leave Zhuozi.I decided to let the troops rest for six hours. It is best for our vanguard to go out overnight.We now need to compete with the Eighth Route Army for time! '

'Can!This kind of thing, you can decide for yourself!By the way, what is the current situation of the artillery brigade and the tank brigade? '

'I'm afraid they have already devoted their allegiance to His Majesty the Emperor! '

A short sentence made Yamamura Seitaro feel a kind of grief of "there is nothing more sad than heart-death".After all, the chariot and heavy artillery brigades that were left behind to block the pursuit of the Eighth Route Army, from the moment they accepted the mission, wasn't this outcome already doomed? (To be continued.) 8

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

From the moment the small town broke out, Seitaro Yamamura and Shuzo Hitomi knew that they would be much safer when they broke through with plane support during the day.But at night, it will be the most dangerous time for them.

Compared to when they were in small towns, they had relatively solid fortifications.Now when you come outside, it is also a very cumbersome thing for tens of thousands of people to camp.What's more, they are in the control area of ​​the Eighth Route Army, and their every move cannot escape the surveillance of the Eighth Route Army.

No one can guarantee that the place they chose will be suitable for the Eighth Route Army to launch a night attack.It's just that Renjian Xiusan and the others know very well that the troops cannot rush to Mengdong in one go.Along the way, they also need time to rest.

It is relatively safe during the day, but it is more suitable for them to travel.It is relatively dangerous at night, and they can only choose to stay on the ground.Even for the sake of safety, the breakout troops who arrived at Kongjiagou this time arranged their defenses very tightly.

The area where they choose to camp is also a relatively suitable place for them to break out at night.In general, from the moment they came out of the town, they were ready to fight at any time, and to break out and retreat at any time.

On the first day of the breakout, the tank brigade and the remaining troops of the heavy artillery brigade were basically surrounded and wiped out by the Eighth Route Army in the small town.However, this group of people only bought a daytime for the main force to break through.

If the fight continues like this, even people who see Xiusan will also feel that it will be difficult for them to reach Mengdong.In response to this situation, Hitomi Shuzo found Seitaro Yamamura on purpose when he began to rest at night.

'Division commander, I have a suggestion under my post, I hope the general can consider it! '

In terms of land battle command, Hitomi Hidezo's level is undoubtedly good.Even if Yamamura Kiyotaro is a lieutenant general, but Renjian Shuzo, a major general, is also a veteran major general, and even an old man of the No. 12 division.

'I see you, do you have any suggestions? '

'General, the current situation is very unfavorable to us.In this case, we must do something to attract the attention of the Eighth Route Army.As far as I know, the Eighth Route Army urgently transferred many civilians in order to encircle and wipe out us.

My suggestion is to draw some elite soldiers from the existing troops and form a small team to break through.The size of each squad does not need to be too large, with the squadron as the organizational system, which specializes in searching for civilians transferred by the Eighth Route Army.

In such a short period of time, it is impossible for the Eighth Route Army to move the people too far away.Then they are nearby, there must be a place for the common people to live in peace.In those places, I believe that the guards in charge should be the guerrillas of the Eighth Route Army.

Those troops are weak in combat, I think a squadron of infantry against them should have a chance.As long as one of these squadrons sent out can successfully find the place where the Eighth Route Army hides the people, we have hope of living.

Use those Chinese people as a threat to cover our main force to break through.Although this approach seems somewhat immoral.But the head of the division should know that we must take the interests of the empire as the first rule! '

From the information he learned, Renjian Xiusan knew that the former Eighth Route Army, in order to avenge the victims of the bombing, resolutely launched a winter offensive against the Japanese army in Taiyuan.It can be said that it was the bombing that caused them to go south at this moment.

In Renjian Xiusan's view, since the Eighth Route Army cared so much about the life and death of the people in the base areas, it was undoubtedly the safest way to use these people as threats and as human shields to cover them from breaking through.I'm afraid that this approach will be condemned a lot!
