The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 443 The Loud Charge (seeking a monthly ticket)

The news quickly spread to the mountain route between Xicun and Xinyi regiment.

Pingshan area.

This is the ambush area chosen by the independent regiment to cooperate with the new regiment to surround the spot for reinforcements.

According to Kong Jie's tactic of encircling and attacking aid, the independent regiment first sent troops, and using nodes from various places, some soldiers from the fourth battalion and fifth battalion, with the cooperation of local troops and militia comrades pretending to be the main combat force, blocked the fourth Japanese army in Xicun. Mixed brigade, and Zhangjiazhuang's Ishii United.

Then Lei Dasheng, the commander of the Fourth Battalion, led the main force of the Fourth Battalion to detour towards the Xinyi Regiment. Together with the troops of the Xinyi Regiment, they ambushed the Japanese reinforcements who came to Nishimura on the way.

All of this went smoothly as planned.

The two Japanese brigades that had besieged the Xinyi Regiment at first sent almost a brigade of troops to the direction of Nishimura for reinforcements after receiving an emergency call for help from the Fourth Mixed Brigade of the Japanese Army in Nishimura.

Then, this reinforcement Japanese brigade was ambushed by the main force of the Fourth Battalion led by the Fourth Battalion Commander Lei Dasheng in the Pingshan area.

The ambushed Japanese army was caught off guard. Under the excellent equipment and fierce firepower of the soldiers of the fourth battalion, the two sides fought for only 10 minutes, and the Japanese army suffered more than [-] casualties.

The leader of the devil team was also shocked. He got the news that the Independence Regiment had besieged the Fourth Brigade in the West Village, so he led the team over for reinforcements.

But how could this team, obviously wearing military boots and belonging to the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, appear here, with such strength and firepower?
No one told him the answer.

Not long after, Xu Lianzhong, the deputy head of the new regiment, led more than 400 soldiers from the new regiment, and launched a surprise attack on the Japanese brigade in Pingshan from the back.

This time it was a front and back attack, and the Japanese brigade coming to support Nishimura again added a lot of casualties.

Only then did Captain Guizi suddenly realize that he had fallen into the trap of the Eighth Route Army. These Tuba Routers had already thought up a strategy to encircle and fight for aid, and they were waiting for him here!
In the end, the two sides fought fiercely for more than an hour.

Under the support of the devil brigade, which was pinched from front to back, they urgently asked for help from other troops. It was not until the Japanese troops who were sweeping nearby came for reinforcements that the Japanese army's decline in front of them was eased.

After the Japanese reinforcements arrived, Lei Dasheng and Xu Lianzhong relied on the mountains to fight the devils in order to avoid casualties.

The Japanese army wanted to continue to advance towards the West Village, but they were dragged by Lei Dasheng and Xu Lianzhong, unable to advance at all.

In the eyes of the Japanese army, whether it was the Xinyi Regiment or the Independent Regiment, their well-equipped and abundant ammunition exceeded their impression of the Eighth Route Army troops.

In the case of losing their absolute advantage in artillery fire, these Eighth Route Army continued to drag and fight, relying on their familiarity with the surrounding terrain.

The devils are complaining endlessly, and it is currently impossible to eliminate these eight ways.

The Eighth Route Army is not easy to destroy, unless they are surrounded, otherwise the deep and vast mountains, once the Eighth Route Army moves, the devils will not even be able to see people.

The Japanese army wanted to get rid of these eight routes, but they couldn't do it either.

The two sides started confrontation from time to time in this vast mountainous area.

The combat area is also gradually shifting from the Pingshan area.

Under the deliberate guidance of Xu Lianzhong, the deputy head of the new regiment, and Lei Dasheng, the commander of the fourth battalion of the independent regiment, the battlefield began to be divided by the two teams, leading the Japanese army to gradually shift the combat area.

"This time we implemented the tactics of besieging the point and attacking the reinforcements. It was not easy to encircle the point, that is, to besiege the Japanese Fourth Mixed Brigade and the Ishii Regiment.

In addition, as reinforcements, it is also very difficult to rely on the troops we ambushed midway to eat the two brigades of the devils in one go.

Therefore, once the plan is implemented, I reckon that the two sides will still fall into a final fierce battle.

It is absolutely not advisable for us to fight a war of attrition with the devils. We do not have absolute logistics supplies, and the ammunition is no match for the devils.

After the aid operation has fallen into a fierce battle, we must make tactical adjustments and enter the next stage of operations.

What stage?

Interspersed, detoured, divided, outflanked, taking advantage of our local force superiority, concentrating our forces, and quickly eating up the divided units of the Japanese army.

It's like chasing a prey. We don't want to eat the prey in one go, but catch up and bite hard when we find the opportunity. Before long, the prey will be exhausted due to excessive bleeding. Falling down with all our strength, we will reach our ultimate goal.

At the smallest cost, in exchange for the greatest victory. "

This is what Kong Jie said when Xu Lianzhong, Zhao Gang, and Kong Jie and other cadres from the three parties discussed the joint operations of the three regiments at the independent regiment headquarters in Niukou Village.

For Xu Lianzhong and Lei Dasheng right now, it is the best period of tactical adjustment.

The communication level of the Eighth Route Army was limited, and it was impossible for Kong Jie to guarantee constant communication between the generals.

Therefore, once the battle begins, it depends on the precise judgment and excellent execution ability of the Eighth Route Army cadres like Xu Lianzhong and Lei Dasheng.

North side of Pingshan.

Lei Dasheng led the team, separated by a hillside, and fought with a Japanese army on the opposite side for more than ten minutes.

Realizing that it was time to adjust the tactics, Lei Dasheng immediately summoned several company commanders beside him and ordered:
"We can't fight a war of attrition with the little devils. Even if we win such a battle, we won't get much ammunition."

"In this way, leave one company, as long as the devils on the opposite side don't attack, don't fire for the time being, just restrain the Japanese army on the opposite side, the enemy advances and retreats, the enemy retreats and advances.

The rest of the main force immediately turned around with me from the left wing, and we quickly intersected, and cooperated with deputy head Xu to quickly surround the Japanese army that was facing the Xinyi regiment, and eat them. "

"Yes!"

At the meeting at that time, when it came to interspersed, detoured, divided, and outflanked, Kong Jie said:

Interspersed detours must be fast and decisive. Once the battle begins, there must be a lightning strike speed to quickly eat up the troops of the surrounded devils, so that the Japanese reinforcements have no time to reinforce.

If this is not possible, the originally perfect interspersed and roundabout tactics may instead cause our own troops to get entangled by the Japanese army.

……

Time passed quietly.

The military boots made of cowhide have anti-slip steel nails on the bottom, which endow this kind of military boots with extremely strong grip.

At this moment, more than 300 pairs of military boots are galloping in the mountains and forests, like walking on flat ground.

The soldiers of the Independence Regiment, since they have a pair of military boots on their feet, they no longer have to worry about running in the mountains.

In the words of the soldiers, wearing such comfortable cowhide military boots and running twice a day in the mountains made me feel uncomfortable all over.

After being equipped with this kind of wear-resistant and comfortable military boots, the training intensity of the soldiers of the independent regiment has gradually caught up, and there are very few training discomforts due to feet.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, especially the old Red Army soldiers who experienced the Long March back then, are not bragging about their feet. They can walk [-] miles on bare feet, let alone wearing military boots.

These military boots soon became the most obvious symbol of the soldiers of the independent regiment. Every time they met a brother army, other troops reported their numbers, and the soldiers of the independent regiment showed the military boots they were wearing on their feet.

The brother troops on the opposite side suddenly realized it, and sighed with envy on their faces:

It turned out to be comrades from the Independent Regiment!
The soldiers wearing military boots moved more and more quickly through the mountains and forests.

But on the other side, Xu Lianzhong, the deputy head of the new regiment, was leading the soldiers of the new regiment to confront a Japanese army on the south side of Pingshan.

The battle was a bit difficult, except for the sudden surprise attack from the back at the beginning, which achieved better results.

After the devils gained a firm foothold, with excellent equipment and abundant ammunition, the situation that Xinyituan had originally gained the upper hand soon began to reverse.

Relying on the equipment that has been gradually developed in the past six months, the new regiment will not be easily eaten by the Japanese army.

But seeing if this continues, the ammunition will be exhausted by the devil sooner or later.

Deputy head Xu was a little anxious. He looked towards the north side urgently. He was waiting, waiting for Lei Dasheng to take action.

The time passed to the next 10 minutes, and the scout soldiers who were in charge of the surrounding investigation quickly turned back and reported: "Reporting to the deputy head and the comrades of the independent regiment have begun to detour!"

"Okay!" Xu Lianzhong was overjoyed immediately, and immediately ordered: "Pass my order, comrades, strengthen the frontal firepower, hold back this group of devils for me, try to attract the attention of the devils as much as possible, and outflank the comrades of the independent regiment. To gain time."

"Yes!"

Although the two sides did not communicate, they quickly completed the deployment with tacit cooperation. At this time, from a high-altitude perspective:
In the mountainous area on the south side of Pingshan, a Japanese squadron is occupying the hillside as a defense. With the help of two heavy machine guns and more than a dozen light machine guns, they quickly built a machine gun fortification, and confronted Xu Lianzhong and his party from the new regiment.

The devil's firepower was so fierce that it completely blocked the new group of soldiers not far from the hillside.

Under the subsequent grenade bombardment, although Xu Lianzhong quickly ordered to disperse the troops, the Xinyi Regiment still suffered certain casualties.

Similarly, Xu Lianzhong would also order grenadier fire from time to time to fight back, causing certain casualties to the Japanese troops on the hillside.

The two sides fell into a temporary fierce battle, each winning or losing.

After Xu Lianzhong gave the order, the firepower of the Xinyi regiment suddenly increased, and some soldiers opened up the skirmish line and launched a feint attack.

The Japanese army immediately became vigilant and stepped up their firepower to counterattack.

The devil's attention was all attracted to Xin Tuan.

At this time, several hundred soldiers of the Independent Regiment, under the leadership of the Fourth Battalion Commander Lei Dasheng, quickly divided into two groups and circled towards the two wings of the Japanese squadron facing the Xinyi Regiment.

The devils also set up guard posts on the edge of the position.

But now it is the end of spring, the trees are lush in the mountains and forests, and the vision is blocked,
In addition, the Japanese army was not familiar with the terrain in this area, and although the independent regiment's detour was quick, it did not lose its vigilance. There were scouts and soldiers who scouted and guarded in advance to avoid the devil's eyeliner.

Therefore, during the whole roundabout and outflanking process, the soldiers of the independent regiment were swift and concealed, and the Japanese army who was fighting fiercely with the new regiment was unaware of this.

Fifteen minutes passed in a blink of an eye, and the soldiers of the independent regiment quickly completed the outflanking of the Japanese squadron on the hillside.

"The bombing team circled around from both sides. The 150 small cannons were placed on the grenade launchers that suppressed the Japanese army with follow-up firepower. The rifle grenade team was covering fire. Within [-] meters, they were responsible for destroying the devil's machine gun points at any time."

Lei Dasheng gave the order.

The frontline reconnaissance soldiers quickly passed the news to Xu Lianzhong.

"Report to the deputy head, the comrades of the independent group are ready to outflank."

Xu Lianzhong yelled: "Okay, all the artillery fire has stopped, and the notification will go down. All the ministries are ready. As soon as the battle on the independent regiment starts, all the troops will immediately launch a charge."

"Yes!"

At No. 20 minutes, the battle on the south side of Pingshan suddenly started.

The bombing team of the Independent Regiment, the soldiers touched the Japanese fortifications within 40 meters from both sides of the position that the Japanese army did not notice, and with the help of the cover of the mountains.

The soldiers in the bombing team were all experts specially trained by Wang Gensheng and Jiang Dao, each of them had their arms thickened for training grenade throwing.

Just pull out a soldier, and on flat ground, you can easily throw a grenade 40 meters away.

For this reason, the soldiers of the independent regiment nicknamed the comrades of the bombing team-"Human Cannon", which is still the kind of artillery with spontaneous consciousness.

At this moment, dozens of soldiers in the bombing team showed their blades together and threw grenades from the left and right wings towards the fortification where the Japanese squadron was located.

As for grenades, which are simple and practical weapons of war, one of their major advantages lies in their absolute concealment.

Especially when the soldiers used the cover of the mountains to throw the grenade suddenly.

All the devil could see was the weird and dangerous dance of the grenade swaying in mid-air.

As for where the enemy threw the grenade, it was impossible to judge for a while.

There were two bombing teams on the left and right wings, with a total of 20 fighters. Each of them had five grenades in their hands, and they threw them all in less than [-] seconds.

Three hundred grenades smashed towards the devil's fortifications on the slope.

The sharp-eyed devils were the first to spot the suddenly thrown grenades, and screamed in horror, "Enemy attack, cover, cover!"

boom -

The grenades that fell like raindrops completely covered the first half of the Japanese army's earth slope fortifications in an instant.

The sudden blow, the devil who was focusing all his attention on the Xinyituan who launched a feint attack, was caught off guard.

The front fortifications of the Japanese squadron were blown upside down by the concentrated firepower of a large number of grenades, and half of the light and heavy machine guns planted by the devils on the front were blown up on the spot.

As the development continued, the explosion of the grenade had not completely ended, and the sound of the charge and the shout came from the two wings of the slope.

Lei Dasheng led the soldiers to launch a full-scale attack on the left and right wings. At the same time, Xu Lianzhong also gave the order to launch an all-out charge from the front, and the charge horn was blown loudly by the trumpeter.

beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep -

The charge of the Eighth Route Army is no stranger to the Japanese army. It is like a deadly suona. Every time it is sounded on the battlefield, it always makes the Japanese army shudder.

This is the devil's conventional understanding of the Eighth Route Army. Generally, the Eighth Route Army will not launch a large-scale charge easily, and once it launches a charge, it is when these local Eighth Route Army think that they can use the charge to end the battle directly.

Compared with the impact of the Japanese soldiers' will to fight, the loud and clear sound of the charge was more than a star and a half.

In turn, it was a great encouragement to the Eighth Route Army soldiers who launched the charge.

This is the wisdom of the Chinese people, and it has existed since ancient times.

"kill--"

Amidst the shouts of killing from all sides, these devils of the second-rate combat troops, who were originally Class B divisions, were so shocked that their hearts were ashamed...
