The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 601 Don’t Do Porcelain Work Without Diamonds (Part [-])
"Boom, boom, boom..."

There was also the sound of intensive firefighting from the right wing of the main force of the Japanese army, and shells and bullets flew towards the security positions as if they didn't need money.

In a hurry, the two infantry squadrons stationed here had no time to rush to repair any fortifications, so they could only use the terrain to divide their troops to occupy several small high grounds, put machine guns and grenadiers on them, and guard the surroundings condescendingly.

The Eighth Route Army used mortars and light and heavy machine guns to attack the top of the mountain when they emerged. Although the devils took advantage of the terrain, they did not rush to repair fortifications on the high ground. Dozens of them didn't even have shelters, so they could only fight on the ground, completely exposed to the Eighth Route Army. Under artillery fire.

He was caught off guard again, losing more than one team in the first round of fire raids alone.

Facing the Eighth Route Army, which was attacking more and more fiercely and with more and more troops, the two squadron leaders on the defensive flanks were afraid that they would not be able to hold on. While strictly ordering their subordinates to stick to their positions, they sent someone to ask the deputy brigade commander for help.

Grand Master Miyazawa also heard the sudden sound of firefights on both sides of the main force, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He thought it was the Eighth Route Army's suspicious formation, confused himself, and used sneak attacks from the flanks to disperse his troops and firepower to reduce frontal resistance. The combat pressure of the troops.

It was as if he hadn't heard the sound of firefighting, and he continued to do what he should do without being affected at all.

It wasn't until the flank defenders sent someone over for help that he realized something was wrong.

"Sir, we have been attacked by at least one reinforced battalion of the Eighth Route Army. More than half of the troops have been killed or injured, and we urgently need reinforcements." The messenger ran over to report in a panic.

"Sir, the right flank of the position has been attacked by more than 500 Eighth Route Army. They are equipped with a large number of mortars and heavy machine guns. The defenders have already suffered more than half of the casualties, and they are in urgent need of reinforcements..." Another messenger rushed over, watching Miyazawa with a nervous expression on his face. .

The two squadrons on the flanks of the main defensive force were all from the Third Battalion. They were attacked at the same time and might be wiped out at any time. The most anxious one was the captain of the Third Battalion.

But sending troops for reinforcements requires a reason, and he can't just go if he wants to.

As soon as he turned his head, he began to analyze: "Sir, we judged before the war that the Eighth Route Army has hidden more than 1000 people around us, and is ready to attack us at any time."

"The base thinks that the enemy attacking the flank is what we deduce is the Eighth Route Army ambush."

"This is used to distract us, distract our troops and firepower, and reduce the combat pressure of the frontal blocking forces. We must not be fooled."

"However, if the security troops defending the flanks are wiped out, the Eighth Route Army will be able to fight all the way here, causing the main force to suffer from the enemy."

"We can't let the Eighth Route Army do what it wants."

"The main elite attacking the Eighth Route Army must not be moved. I implore the officer to deploy two reinforced squadrons from the second brigade to reinforce the flanks, resolutely block the Eighth Route Army's ambush, and don't give them any chance."

The captain of the First Battalion subconsciously asked: "Remove half of the infantry brigade at once, what if the field artillery brigade is also attacked?"

"Now I seriously doubt that the Eighth Route Army will continue to attack us, attacking our army's flanks and spreading our troops, but in fact it is creating conditions for attacking the field artillery brigade."

The captain of the third brigade immediately stood up and denied: "I don't think so..."

"Before the war, everyone analyzed that the Yizhong Eighth Route Army had at most hidden more than 1000 people around us, but now two reinforced battalions have been exposed, with a strength of far more than 1000."

"Not surprisingly, there are no Eighth Route Army ambushes around us."

"The Field Artillery Brigade is two kilometers away. Even if two reinforced squadrons are transferred, they still have half an infantry brigade left. Surely no Eighth Route Army would dare to attack them, and there is no Eighth Route Army to deal with them on the battlefield."

The captain of the first brigade stopped objecting after listening.

As long as the reinforcements don't mobilize the main attacking troops and don't affect the situation of the battle, it doesn't matter much to him where they come from.

Grand Master Miyazawa was also convinced. Seeing that the surrounding subordinates all agreed and stopped opposing, he immediately ordered: "Contact the second brigade immediately, and deploy two reinforced squadrons to reinforce the guard positions on the two wings."

"The other troops continued to act according to the plan, trying to break through the Eighth Route Army's blocking position within half an hour and continue to reinforce Yi County."

…………

On a hill to the northwest of the battlefield, Huang Yu was staring intently at the battlefield, using the sound of guns to determine the battle situation in places he couldn't see.

Seeing that the head of the regiment successfully repelled the first round of Japanese attacking troops, the hanging heart was relieved by more than half in an instant.

Half an hour had passed, and as long as the blocking troops repelled another attack from the devils, the main force of the Japanese army would be transferred from the field artillery brigade due to lack of troops, and there would be a breakthrough for the commandos to defeat the little devils.

"Deputy chief of staff, good news. The Devil's field artillery position suddenly dispatched two reinforced brigades to reinforce the flank security position. The marching speed is very fast, and it is several hundred meters away from the field artillery position. It can enter the flank security position in at most 10 minutes." An investigator suddenly ran to Huang Yu to report.

"Deploy troops to reinforce the flank security positions?" Huang Yu quickly understood what was going on, and his face was immediately replaced by a smile, and he said happily.

"Chen Jia and Huang Yong are really good at it. They used a group of recruits to beat up the Japanese army's security position and had to ask their superiors for help!"

"The devil's main force is prepared to attack the blocking position, and it cannot be easily mobilized."

"In order to keep the guard positions on the flanks and repel the attacks of Chen Jia and Huang Yong, the Japanese army could only deploy reinforcements from the field artillery positions."

"True, God helps me too. The Devil's field artillery position has lost two reinforced squadrons in advance. Our general attack time must also be advanced to reduce the combat pressure of the frontal blocking troops as much as possible."

"Their casualties were very heavy. If we launched a general attack 10 minutes earlier, we might have saved more than 100 casualties."

"Contact Deng Jingye immediately, and the Wangdu garrison and its subordinate commandos will deploy immediately. When they see the signal, they will launch an attack on the Japanese field artillery positions. Use the most violent offensive to end the battle as quickly as possible, and then immediately divide the troops to raid the main force of the little devils."

"Other commandos, artillery units, move to breakout positions immediately."

"As soon as the devil's second attack begins, we will launch a general attack."

…………

Kong Jie's face was very ugly at the enemy's command post in front of the blocking position.

The Japanese and puppet troops obviously learned from the experience and lessons just now in this attack. In addition to mortars, they also sent out a large number of mountain artillery and infantry artillery to bombard the blocking positions.

Looking at the dazzling flames rising continuously on the blocking position, his heart was more painful than a drop of blood.

Because every shell fired by the devils will take away the life of one or two soldiers, or cause a devastating blow to the blocking position.

These are the capital for repelling the next wave of Japanese attacks. The greater the loss, the more completely the position is destroyed, and the lower the chance of holding the position.

In desperation, an excited report suddenly sounded from the command post: "Commander, good news..."

"Deputy Chief of Staff Huang sent an urgent call. The enemy's situation has changed suddenly. He plans to launch a general offensive ahead of time..."

"After the Japanese army's second wave of offensive began, we launched a general offensive at the same time based on the sound of our counterattack guns, severely injuring and defeating the little devils on the battlefield."

The dignified expression on Kong Jie's face immediately turned into anticipation. He grabbed the telegram handed over by the operator, and after confirming that the contents of the telegram were correct, the anticipation expression on his face immediately turned into excitement.

Staring at the blocking position in front of him full of artillery fire, he sighed: "The general attack will be advanced, and our blocking pressure will be much less."

"All the guard companies are assembled on standby to prepare for the counterattack...all the mortars are aimed at the area between 150 meters and 200 meters of the position, and each gun shoots [-] shells at the fastest speed, and then freely designs them in units of platoons. If there are too many devils, let's shoot wherever there are many devils, trying to blow up all the devils at the foot of the mountain, so that they can't gather."

"All the soldiers of the Mancheng Garrison Regiment who are still able to fight will participate in the battle, and follow the guard company to expand the results of the battle."

"After the counter-offensive begins, the soldiers of the reserve team who can still fight go out together with the guard company, and take out all the heavy machine guns and grenades left in the blocking position. The light machine guns are used as submachine guns, and they launch a counter-offensive with the team to defeat the little devils' attack force."

Huang Qi, the head of the Mancheng garrison regiment, suddenly reminded: "What if the devils dispatch mortars and heavy machine guns to meet the attacking troops when we counterattack, and intercept us from a long distance?"

Kong Jie shook his head, and replied confidently: "Don't worry, the little devil has no chance."

"Without that diamond, I won't do porcelain work. Since Deputy Chief of Staff Huang dared to launch a general offensive in advance, it proves that he has already thought of a perfect plan. We only need to deal with the Japanese attacking troops. The other little devils on the battlefield don't need us. There will be Dedicated troops attack."

"That would be great..." Huang Qi started gearing up after hearing this.

Staring at a pair of red eyes, he gritted his teeth and said, "I was worried about how to avenge the soldiers who died on the battlefield. Deputy Chief of Staff Huang immediately set up the platform for us. God helped me."

"I'm going to organize the troops now, take out all the light and heavy machine guns and grenades in the inventory, and let the devils attack the troops to pay for their blood."

…………

Ten minutes later, the deafening explosion finally stopped.

The remaining three squadrons of the first brigade were dispatched together, forming three skirmish lines, like three unstoppable waves, heading straight for the blocking position.

At the same time, Grand Master Miyazawa raised his binoculars. He wanted to witness with his own eyes that the attacking troops set foot on the blocking position of the Duer Regiment, trampled their opponents under their feet, and avenged their shame.

The blocking position is full of gunpowder smoke, rising black smoke columns, and dense bomb craters...

Looking around, there is almost no complete land in the blockade position with a width of several hundred meters.

Inside the bomb crater, outside the bomb crater, in the gaps in the trenches...there were no fewer than two hundred corpses of the Eighth Route Army everywhere.

In addition to those invisible to the eyes and those that were blown up, the artillery coverage just now caused at least 400 casualties to the blocking troops.

The opponents were mostly recruits, and the loss of so many troops before firing a single shot must have had a huge impact on morale. They might have collapsed and fled the battlefield under the cover of artillery fire just now.

This was the scene that Grand Master Miyazawa was looking forward to the most, and also the scene he didn't want to see the most.
