Unparalleled Warriors of Anti-Japanese War

The only thing he can hope for now is that the vanguard team can hold on for a while longer.In any case, it will take some time for the opponent to wipe out their infantry brigade in one go.

To their disbelief, after just over ten minutes, the fierce gunfire in front subsided.Is this the end of the fight?Or ambushed troops, ended the ambush? (To be continued.)

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

With the minesweeping engineers at the fastest speed, they cleared out the landmines buried on the road and detonated them quickly.The cavalry squadron, which was blocked by the minefields on the road, rushed to the fighting area again at the speed of the attack.

It's just that when these Japanese cavalry appeared on the road where the ambush was laid, the scene they saw made these cavalry angry, but more of them were a little scared.Because the speed at which the vanguard brigade was wiped out was really too fast!

From the sound of the gunfire to the complete cessation of the gunfire, the time was only about 10 minutes.This kind of ambush efficiency is enough to show how powerful the attack power of the troops ambushing the vanguard infantry brigade is.

Especially judging from the situation at the scene, the opponent still had plenty of time to clean up the battlefield after the infantry brigade was dealt with.Such a conclusion can be drawn because all the little devils on the highway have only one crotch pocket left.

'Squadron leader, we checked the traces left by the enemy.After the battle, they should have fled into the mountains.Should we move on now, or wait for the follow-up main force to arrive? '

'wait!First restrain the corpses of these warriors to see if there are any alive.Damn it, the attack power of the enemy we are fighting this time really cannot be underestimated.It seems that we should really be careful next time. '

As the cavalry unit of the third division, they naturally participated in many battles with the Huaxia Anti-Japanese Forces.It was the first time they encountered a situation like today, and they were truly aware of the difficulty of the Eighth Route Army.

From the unpredictable mine warfare on the march to this sudden ambush.The opponent's strategy and tactics did make these Japanese troops a little unaccustomed, which led to a very unoptimistic start.

It wasn't long after the call was made that they lost an infantry brigade.On the contrary, at the scene of the battle, they didn't even see the shadow of the enemy.They also don't know how many people the other side ambushed on this road.

After inspecting the battlefield, the Japanese cavalry regrettably found that there were no living survivors in the entire scene.What made them even more depressed was that there seemed to be not many bullet casings left in the entire battlefield.

Thinking of this, some Japanese soldiers also said depressedly: "Baga, these Eighth Route Army are really thrifty!"

According to the Eighth Route Army's combat rules summarized by the North China Front Army, many Japanese troops knew that the Eighth Route Army was at the end of the battle.If they have time, they will collect the empty bullet casings, and then exchange the bullet casings for the second reloading bullets.

This thrifty way seems to be unique among the Huaxia Anti-Japanese War troops.But anyone who knows the Eighth Route Army knows that it is precisely because of this principle of saving and not wasting that the troops of the Eighth Route Army can continue to grow and develop.

What the Japanese army didn't know was that it was indeed a habit that the Eighth Route Army liked to pick up empty bullet casings on the battlefield.But for the independent column, apart from reinstalling the recovered bullet casings, it is more of a secret.

With the introduction of assault rifles and new rifles into the troops, He Zhengdao knew very well that the Japanese army's espionage capabilities were not easy.This kind of 7.62 caliber bullet, which is different from the Central Army and the Japanese army, still needs to be kept secret for a while.

At least for now, the Central Army and the Japanese Army do not know that the Eighth Route Army has developed new weapons.The new assault rifle is also limited to the use of the Saber Special Forces and the Reconnaissance Brigade.The new rifles are also only equipped with the guard troops of the Eighth Route Army.

Although there are many main division commanders, I hope that these equipment can be installed in the troops as soon as possible.But He Zhengdao knew very well that once these weapons fell into the hands of the Japanese army, they could still be imitated with the Japanese army's ability to imitate them.

Although the Japanese army focused more on cheap and practical weapons research and development, they didn't like this kind of continuous-fire weapons.But these two rifles developed by the arsenal in advance are undoubtedly very practical rifles on the battlefield.

For this reason, He Zhengdao's suggestion to the central government and the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army is to postpone the deployment of these weapons to the troops.If these troops are equipped with weapons, they must have the strength to counterattack the Japanese army and regain the north.

If there is no such strength, once the Japanese army knows that the military strength of the Eighth Route Army has been unprecedentedly improved.I'm afraid that the little devils will turn their guns around and transfer their real main force to the northern battlefield to fight to the end with the Eighth Route Army.

If this happens, it will be very unfavorable to the long-term layout of the Eighth Route Army.Therefore, He Zhengdao still hopes that the Eighth Route Army will put more energy into forming troops and accumulating combatable soldiers.

Cultivate your internal strength well, wait for an appropriate time, and then deal a fatal blow to the Japanese army.Only in this way can the Eighth Route Army truly confirm that their control over northern China can compete with the Central Army.

As the vanguard infantry brigade of the division was wiped out, Shin Fujita, who thought he was marching very cautiously, felt a little upset, but he was hit in the head by this, and he was a little confused.I realized that the Eighth Route Army is really difficult to deal with.

Looking at the telegram sent by the Infantry Wing, Fujita thought for a while and said: "Order the troops to move forward, continue to send an infantry brigade to act as the vanguard of the division to explore the way, and then equip it with a cavalry squadron to serve as cover support.

Judging from the current situation, our opponent wants to use this method to slow down our attack speed.I have to say that the emergence of landmines has indeed brought us a lot of trouble.In this case, our engineers will become very hard.

It's getting late today, and I ordered the troops in front to start preparing to camp and rest.At the same time, I sent a report to the Army Aviation. I hope they can send reconnaissance planes and fighter jets tomorrow to escort us in the air.

Although such harassment tactics can cause us some trouble, it is impossible to stop our progress.Pushing all the way like this, I want to see how they block our progress.

By the way, if the Army Aviation can deploy planes, I hope that the Army Aviation will send a bomber fleet tomorrow to carry out aerial bombing against our enemies.Let the special high class find a few important places to provide bombing targets for the bomber fleet. "

In Fujita Jin's view, today's Eighth Route Army's blockade and harassment did cause some trouble and loss to his march.But overall, it still couldn't cause too much trouble to his division, it could only slow down his marching speed.

Listening to the combat order issued by Jin Fujita, the chief of staff of the division said: "General, can we dispatch a brigade of the Imperial Association Army to cooperate with our infantry brigade to serve as the vanguard? In this way, we can also avoid the casualties of our warriors as much as possible.

In addition, can we deploy some cavalry, choose some routes that are not suitable for large troops to advance, and implement rapid assault tactics to disrupt the opponent's harassment war against us on the road? "

As soon as the chief of staff's suggestion came out, Fujita Jin thought for a while and said: "Hey, your suggestion is very necessary. Let the logistics troops transfer a brigade of the Imperial Association Army, and take a car to the Sixth Regiment to meet up tonight and accept the first Commander of the Sixth Regiment.

As for sending cavalry to detour and assault, I don't think it is very safe.However, give it a try and see how it works.If it works, let our cavalry try not to deviate from our line of march. "

At the end of the day's march, the Japanese Third Division had only traveled less than [-] kilometers.On the other hand, the reconnaissance brigade responsible for harassment, except for some casualties in the ambush, the overall harvest is still very good.

The batch of weapons seized from the battlefield was quickly distributed to the guerrillas and militia units along the line after the reconnaissance team asked for instructions.Seeing these Japanese-style equipment handed out, many fighters who joined the guerrillas were very excited.

The weapons eliminated by the guerrillas were distributed to the militia troops.This made the militiamen, who were suffering from weapons restrictions, equally overjoyed.After all, weapons are the guarantee of life in the war era!

Compared with the big blades and soil guns used before, this Hanyang-made regular rifle is still much more powerful.With these weapons, the combat effectiveness of the militia has naturally been greatly improved.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, it is somewhat wasteful to distribute the captured Japanese weapons to the guerrillas.But for the New 67th Army, all Japanese weapons are currently used.But this kind of weapon is not what everyone wants.

The reconnaissance brigade who had used the new rifles and assault rifles most wanted to use the new weapons developed by their own arsenal.This kind of Japanese-style equipment that the Central Army likes, but they don't think much of it.

Now that the Japanese Third Division is approaching, He Zhengdao also hopes to take this opportunity to block the attack and continue to arm the guerrillas and militia troops along the line by robbing the Third Division.In this way, more battleable soldiers can be harvested in the future.

That night, when the Japanese army chose to camp on the spot.Having just arrived at a brigade of the Royal Association Army serving as the sixth infantry regiment of the avant-garde army, they soon learned that their mission would be doomed tomorrow.

Hearing that they will be the trailblazers tomorrow, many soldiers of the Imperial Association Army cringed and said, "Isn't it? Let us go to be the pioneers to scout the road, isn't that clearly telling us to go to the front to die?"

Even though they stayed behind, they had heard about what happened today when they came by car earlier.For things like stepping on landmines, anyone who wants to live will probably not think it is a good job.

But looking at those little devils standing guard outside the camp, many old fritters from the Imperial Association Army could only say in frustration: "Who told us to wear this skin? When we got here, we didn't even want to escape." Here's the chance!"

Knowing that the little devil transferred them to the front, he made it clear that he wanted them to go to thunder.Such an errand really made many puppet soldiers want to retreat.Originally escorting supplies, they felt tired, but it was better than going to Lei's errand!

Now that they have entered the little devil's temporary camp, even if they know about this mission, they dare not have any objections.Whether you can survive tomorrow or not really depends on your luck.

Compared with the frustration and grief on the faces of these puppet soldiers, the Japanese infantry brigade who had previously served as the vanguard looked a little happy.After all, with such a group of scapegoats, they were indeed lucky to escape! (To be continued.)

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

He Zhengdao, who was sitting in Huaibin, also felt very relieved when he saw the first day's battle situation sent back by the reconnaissance team.From the present point of view, the reconnaissance brigade has become a force that dares to fight and understands war, which also shows that the reconnaissance brigade is worthy of being his fist force.

As the chief of staff, Luo Ruiqing also seemed very satisfied with the results of the first day of the reconnaissance team.The longer he stayed in this army, the more Luo Ruiqing could discover the difference of this army.

Perhaps as He Zhengdao said, the strength of an army has a lot to do with its first commander.As the saying goes, "A raging soldier, a raging nest", and the independent column was formed by He Zhengdao.

Relying on the captive soldiers recruited on the Long March, this independent regiment, which served as the rear guard during the Long March, made great achievements repeatedly after knowing its shame and bravery.It has become a truly daring and victorious force in the Eighth Route Army.

The entire column, from the commander of a division to the ordinary soldiers, all admired He Zhengdao very much.As the commander, He Zhengdao's prestige in this army is unmatched by anyone else.

Even now, because of his status, He Zhengdao no longer personally participates in the front-line battles as before.But this reconnaissance brigade, which was envied by all divisions of the Eighth Route Army, was an elite unit trained by He Zhengdao.

If we say that the Saber Special Forces is a sharp blade with a hidden front, if you pull it out, you will see blood and give the enemy a fatal blow.Then the reconnaissance brigade is an indispensable sharp knife unit in the independent column, a trustworthy elite iron-blooded division.

'Chief of staff, call back the Second Regiment, and start to increase the harassment from tomorrow.Use landmines and cold gun tactics to block the enemy and the road.Try to slow down the marching speed of the Japanese army and let them stay on the road for a few more days.

Second, order our troops along the highway to enter combat readiness starting tonight.Beware of the sneak attack by the Japanese army, and disperse our troops there by means of harassment to ensure the safety of the local people.
