The only troublesome thing is that when they are camouflaging, they have to replace the new rifles they are using with the weapons used by the little devils again.But being able to sneak into the Japanese camp for a surprise attack is undoubtedly the favorite of the scouts.

If the rear camp of the little devil can be taken down, I believe it will greatly reduce the pressure on the defenders.Even with good cooperation, I believe that this Japanese brigade can be completely defeated in the shortest possible time.

If this Japanese mixed brigade can be defeated, the Second Infantry Division can also take advantage of the trend to advance the blocking position for a certain distance.In this way, it means that they indirectly regained some places, and further compressed the little devil's living space.

As long as the mixed brigade of this little devil in front of him is defeated, no matter whether they attack Chengde or Chifeng, I believe it will be much easier for the Eighth Route Army.After all, most of the troops deployed by the Japanese army in the city were puppet and puppet Manchurian troops.

The commander of the reconnaissance battalion who had given the combat mission, in addition to arranging some reconnaissance units to sneak into the Yudaokou to find out the location of the Little Devils Brigade's headquarters and artillery positions, the rest of the troops also temporarily found a place to rest in peace.

The company responsible for infiltration and camouflage was waiting for an opportunity near the road that the little devil convoy passed.Once the little devil's convoy returns, they will also look for opportunities to snatch the car, and then sneak into the rear barracks to launch a surprise attack.

Of course, grasping this opportunity requires careful preparation and selection.At least let the little devils feel that the road from their rear camp to the front camp at least looks safe.

When the mixed brigade went to Yudaokou, it began to deploy according to the plan when it left the camp.The captain of the cavalry also said that they had driven away the Eighth Route Army scouts who had been here before, and carried out reconnaissance on the Eighth Route Army positions.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the defensive positions of the Eighth Route Army are no different from the situation of the previous two days of reconnaissance.The place where the torches were lit before, this society is still lighting torches, and there are still soldiers patrolling the position.

Hearing this news, the head of the Japanese Army Brigade was also very satisfied: "Hey! It seems that the Eight Routes don't know that we will launch a surprise attack on them at this time. Let the infantry regiment start to prepare for the assault.

After the artillery fire begins to extend, the troops must take down the enemy's forward positions in the shortest possible time.Only by taking down their defensive positions, can our main force have a chance to attack Duolun and recover everything there. "

As a mixed brigade of the Japanese army to calm Chengde, they knew very well that the Eighth Route Army's stay in Duolun was like a knife on their necks.If Duolun is not taken back, they will always worry that the Eighth Route Army will launch a surprise attack on Chengde.

Even in their view, Chengde is the capital of Rehe, and the city walls are also very strong and reliable.It is not easy to capture Chengde with only the artillery fire and troops of the Eighth Route Army.But many times, this kind of threat also makes the little devil feel uncomfortable.

Most importantly, if the Eighth Route Army that won Duolun does not choose to attack Chengde, it can continue to attack the Chifeng area northward.Compared with Chengde, the defensive measures there are relatively easy to attack.

However, both Chengde and Chifeng are important military towns in Rehe, and losing that would make the Kwantung Army feel painful.For this reason, the task of the mixed brigade this time is to recover Duolun City from the hands of the Eighth Route Army.

After the elite division from Fengtian arrives, cooperate with the division to launch an attack on the Xilin Gol League.If possible, the Kwantung Army hopes to drive all the Eighth Route Army out of the territory of Rehe and Chahar provinces.

The idea is good, but it is not an easy task to achieve this goal.When an infantry unit of the mixed brigade began to cautiously approach the forward position of the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese artillery was also busy setting up artillery.

As the sky gradually brightened, the artillery unit of the mixed brigade also made preparations before the shelling.It's just that when the little devil started to set up the artillery, the scouts of the special division who sneaked in had already sent the parameters of the little devil's artillery position back to the second division.

The artillery carried by the mixed brigade this time is also some 75-caliber field artillery and mountain artillery.The second infantry division in charge of blocking such artillery was also equipped with a lot of artillery.This means that the Second Infantry Division is fully capable of countering Japanese artillery fire.

The Artillery Regiment of the Second Division, which also began to adjust the artillery positions, also quietly waited for the order from the division headquarters.Once the little devil's artillery unit fires, I believe they are also ready to counterattack at any time.

When the brigade head of the mixed brigade sent an order to start the war back to the headquarters of the Kwantung Army.The artillery unit of the mixed brigade first launched an artillery attack on the Eighth Route Army's defensive positions.

Seeing the artillery fire that suddenly appeared in the sky, the Eighth Route Army on the ground observed the sentries and immediately blew the whistle in their mouths.Countless soldiers staying in the position quickly rushed into the nearest anti-artillery pit with their weapons.

When they got into the anti-cannon hole, the shells fired by the little devil in the first round fell on the position without any deviation.After the earth-shaking explosion sounded, the Eighth Route Army soldiers on standby in the pit were also ready to attack.

At this time, the Japanese infantry who had already touched the front of the position, under the order of the commander beside them, began to bow their waists and prepare for the assault.Of course, not running in now is also to shorten the attack distance as close as possible.

After all, their artillery fire hadn't been extended at this time, and some shells hit the forward positions directly.If they rushed up, they were likely to be accidentally injured by shells.Therefore, as long as the charging distance is appropriately shortened.

Even if the light is still not very good at this time, you can hear the tinkling sound coming from the front of the position.The sentinel in charge of observation soon realized that there might be little devil's infantry approaching at the front of the position.

But these sentinels seemed very calm and did not make any warning actions.Because they all know that if the little devil wants to sneak up to the position, he must first clean up the landmines buried in front of them! (To be continued.)

Chapter 67 Sharp Counterattack!

Seeing the Eighth Route Army's defensive position shrouded in artillery fire, the Japanese infantry preparing to attack also seemed a little excited.As a mixed brigade stationed in Chengde, they rarely have the opportunity to participate in such a battle.

For many officers and soldiers of the Japanese army who are eager to be promoted in military exploits, fighting means that they have the opportunity to be promoted and make a fortune.During the years of stationing in Chengde, they have become more or less confident, and they don't think that the Huaxia army is capable of fighting.

Even in the eyes of some Japanese soldiers, the Eighth Route Army is a unit whose combat effectiveness is weaker than that of the National Army.In the past, the guerrillas who harassed Chengde territory from time to time, as long as they sent troops, they would flee immediately, and they dared not fight them at all.

Since they are all the Eighth Route Army, in the eyes of many officers and soldiers of the mixed brigade, the Eighth Route Army seems a bit vulnerable.Now that they are a mixed brigade, are they afraid that they will not be able to defeat the position defended by a main regiment of the Eighth Route Army?

The soldiers of the Infantry Wing, who were in charge of the main offensive task, looked full of anticipation and excitement as they looked at the Eighth Route Army positions that were getting closer and closer to them.If they can capture the opponent's defensive position in one battle, then the first attack of this battle belongs to them.

The Japanese sergeants in charge also urged the little devils around them to slow down, as long as they kept moving at a constant speed.If you go too fast, it will also disrupt the infantry's offensive formation.

Before attacking, they already knew the artillery units, and they would shell for at least half an hour.This half an hour was enough time for them to reach the forward positions of the Eighth Route Army.After the artillery fire is extended, they can take advantage of the situation to attack the defenders of the position.

It's just that what the little devil infantry didn't expect was that there were a few Japanese soldiers walking at the front of the team.Facing the slightly messy open area under your feet, you will always accidentally kick some empty cans and make a clanging sound.

Just when the little devil was complaining about the Eighth Route Army, why did they throw so many empty cans at the front of the position.A little devil suddenly felt that his foot was a little bit empty, and he flew up before he could react.

What's more, what the little devils who followed didn't expect was that the little devils in front were blown up at the same time.The little devil who was following him also noticed the explosion sound coming from under his feet, and the entire combat team was transformed into chaos in an instant.

'idiot!There are mines!Balu planted landmines in front, stop advancing! '

Sergeants of the Japanese army quickly realized that these weapons that suddenly exploded from the ground should be the landmines they hate the most.Everything seemed to be a little too late, and soon there was a burst of explosions from the Japanese infantry wing that had launched an offensive formation.

It was as if the landmine stepped on by the little devil earlier triggered a chain reaction in the entire minefield.In fact, this is just a series of mines planted by the Eighth Route Army.When the mines in the front explode, the mines in the back will also be detonated accordingly.

At this time, even if the little devil knew that they had entered the minefield, there was no time to back off.After all, they were already standing in the minefield, and running there might encounter landmines that were detonated one after another.

Looking at the little devils in the chaotic formation at the front of the position, the Eighth Route Army observation post staying on the position also smiled and said: "If you act like a ghost, you should also drink my foot-washing water. You bomb me with cannons, and I bombard you with landmines." You bastards raised it!"

The head of the Japanese brigade, who stayed behind and watched the artillery bombardment in front, heard the explosion from the attacking infantry, and said with a dignified expression: "Baga, the Balu actually laid mines at the front of the position!"

The head of the Japanese brigade also seemed a little surprised by this way of laying mines.But at this moment, it is impossible for him to order the troops to withdraw.After all, there is not much time before the artillery fire extends, and it is too late to send engineers to clear the mines!

'Command the attacking troops, continue to attack!I believe that the eight roads should not plant too many mines in front of the position. '

Even knowing that continuing to attack like this may cause heavy casualties to the attacking troops.However, in the view of the head of the Japanese army brigade, as long as they rush to the Eighth Route Army's position in one go, the Eighth Route Army is believed to be powerless to resist them from taking the forward position.

But what the brigade commander of the Japanese army didn't know was that when the attacking kid stepped on a landmine, a regiment commander on the field quickly shook the field phone and said, "Master, the little devil stepped on a mine!"

'good!I will order the artillery regiment to launch a counterattack immediately, and you are ready to fight! '

'Yes, head! '

While hanging up the phone, the head of the first regiment said again: "Order the mortar company and prepare for shelling! Once our artillery starts to counterattack, immediately launch shelling against the little devil infantry at the front of the line. If you want to sneak attack me, then don't blame me ruthless!"

If the artillery regiment in the division wants to cooperate in operations, it needs the consent of the division commander.But for a mortar company of a regiment, a regiment commander himself has the right to command.At this time, the offensive infantry used to find the little devil is undoubtedly the best weapon.

Following the artillery regiment of the Second Infantry Division, after receiving a call from the division headquarters, the artillery regiment's position, which had adjusted its bombardment parameters, immediately came from the voice of the orderling: "Load the shells, prepare for one shot!"

After the artillerymen, who had been waiting for a long time, stuffed the shells into the barrels, reports came from each artillery position that the shells had been loaded.As the flags in the hands of the messenger waved down, the gunners also shouted: "Let go!"

While pulling the bolt, the Qiwu Mountain Cannon and Field Cannon equipped by the Artillery Regiment quickly fired the shells in the barrel.As these shells flew away, the shells landed in batches on the artillery positions of the Japanese army's mixed brigades in a short time.

The head of the Japanese brigade, who also saw this scene, said with a look of horror: "No! The artillery of the Eight Routes counterattacked! Damn it, how can their artillery units counterattack in such a short period of time?"

Even if you know that the infantry divisions of the Eighth Route Army are also equipped with 75 artillery pieces of the same model as them.But in the eyes of the head of the infantry brigade, they only shelled for half an hour and had the advantage of a sneak attack. Even the artillery units of the Eighth Route Army had no time to respond.

When the shelling is over, their artillery units can switch artillery positions.But right now, the shelling was just halfway through, and the Eighth Route Army's artillery fire actually started to return fire, and judging from where the shells fell, it seemed that they fell very accurately on their artillery positions.

Seeing the flames and explosions coming from the artillery position, the head of the Japanese brigade also said with a sad face: "Baga! If our artillery unit is seriously damaged, and we want to capture the position of the Eight Route Army next, I'm afraid it will become a disaster." It's even more difficult!"

As the artillery regiment of the Second Infantry Division began to counterattack, suppressing the artillery unit of the little devil, the number of artillery shells on a defensive position also decreased sharply.At this time, a regiment commander gave the order for the mortar company to shell.
