Chapter 602 Second Defeat (Second Change)

The expectation is that after the Eighth Route Army abandons its position, the offensive troops will be able to break through the blocking position in front with the least cost and continue to reinforce Yi County.

But in this way, the dream of the attacking troops to wipe out all the Eighth Route Army here cannot be realized.In the future, the chances of encountering this kind of positional warfare with the complete annihilation of opponents must be extremely slim.

This is the so-called gain if there is a loss, and it is impossible to let yourself take all the advantages.

If the remnants of the Eighth Route Army on the blocking position really escaped, he would have nothing to do.

The attack speed of the attacking troops was very fast. In a daze, the front row of soldiers had already reached the position of 100 meters in front of the formation.

The result was exactly the same as what he judged.

Except for gunpowder smoke and rising smoke, there was still no movement on the blocking position, not even the sound of rifle shooting.

The attacking troops also seemed to realize that the Eighth Route Army had run away, and the attack speed was getting faster and faster, planning to rush to the blocking position in one go.

Quickly rushed forward four 50 meters.

Many soldiers have already pulled out grenades, ready to throw them out after rushing ten meters forward.

At this moment, a scene that Major General Miyazawa will never forget appeared.

More than 40 tongues of fire suddenly appeared in the deadly blocking position, which was particularly dazzling under the darkness of night.

More than half of the front row of attacking troops fell down in an instant. Before the other soldiers could react from the sudden blow, the explosion sounded beside them.

The area 40 meters to 60 meters in front of the formation is full of splashing flames and black smoke rising into the sky...

"Rumble..."

A more violent explosion sounded on the battlefield, and at least thirty subordinates fell in the splashing flames.

The smile on Grand Master Miyazawa's face froze instantly, and he shouted: "Bageyalu, we have been fooled..."

"Not only did the Eighth Route Army not abandon their positions, but they also deployed a large number of ambushes in the blocking positions."

"The heavy machine gun squadron and the mortar squadron immediately counterattacked, suppressed the Eighth Route Army's blocking firepower, and covered the attacking troops to continue their assault..."

Grand Master Miyazawa reacted very quickly and had rich experience in commanding in battle, so he made adjustments when he realized something was wrong.

But Huang Yu's reaction was faster.

Almost at the same moment, the Japanese mortar positions, heavy machine gun positions, and flank security positions... were attacked by a large number of artillery at the same time.

Although the Duer Regiment didn't have many shells in reserve, and every time it fired one round, it lost one round, but the captured mortars were particularly large, and they were rarely worn out.

Before Huang Yu assaulted Beiping, each garrison regiment was equipped with more than ten gates.

After the end of the Peiping trip, they brought back more than 30 doors, adding up to at least a hundred doors.

Minus the mortars that he had fought against the devils in advance, Huang Yu still held a full 48 mortars and a lot of mountain artillery and infantry artillery in his hand.

In addition to the Flying Thunder Cannon that can hit the enemy at close range, there are a total of seventy various artillery pieces.

With one order, mortars, thunder cannons, infantry artillery, mountain artillery, and field artillery all participated in the battle.

All kinds of shells hit the main force of the Japanese army like rain.

Especially the mortar, which is famous for its fast rate of fire, the first round of shells has just exploded, and the second round of shells has already followed.

Miyazawa Colonel Miyazawa's ears exploded besides explosions.

The flames and black smoke from the explosion were all within the field of vision. The soldiers were blown up like paper toys, and more soldiers were blown to the ground, or scurrying around in the artillery fire...

The artillery support and machine gun support that the attacking forces desperately needed were gone.

Facing the sudden artillery attack, the heavy machine gun squadron and the mortar squadron were too busy to take care of themselves. They were all in a hurry to move their positions, and they didn't even have a chance to participate in the battle.

"Sir, the Eighth Route Army, which has already formed an offensive position, has suddenly become more than 2000 people, and its offensive firepower has more than doubled. The security forces have suffered heavy losses and are almost unable to hold on." A second lieutenant ran over to report with a look of panic.

"Sir, the field artillery position has been attacked by an unknown enemy. The enemy is equipped with at least [-] artillery pieces of various types, and they are lurking next to the position. The second brigade has suffered heavy losses and urgently needs reinforcements." The radio operator suddenly came to report.

"Sir, the attacking troops have suffered heavy losses and must retreat immediately, otherwise the three squadrons will be completely wiped out by the Eighth Route Army in front of the blocking position..." the captain of the first brigade hurriedly added.

"Then why are you still standing there, tell them to retreat quickly..." Commander Miyazawa looked at the attacking troops being massacred on the battlefield and ordered with a heartbroken face.

"The alert position is to defend the position at all costs, and no one can take a step back without my order."

"Immediately send a telegram to the Second Battalion, we must defend the Field Artillery Battalion. If it is impossible, I will allow them to blow up the artillery and take all the gunners to retreat in the direction of the main force."

After issuing three orders in a row, Grand Master Miyazawa calmly analyzed: "We have underestimated the enemy."

"I feel that the Eighth Route Army has just completed its expansion, and its combat power has not increased but decreased. As long as we gather enough troops to reinforce Yi County, the Eighth Route Army's encirclement and reinforcements will become self-inflicted traps, and we will be hit hard in Peishan in the end."

"In fact, their overall combat power is far beyond our imagination. Even if we gather three infantry brigades, we are still no match. We even made a big mistake in dividing our troops on the battlefield, giving them each a chance to defeat us."

"After the attacking troops retreated, they immediately approached us, and the whole army retreated five kilometers...sir..."

Before Grand Master Miyazawa finished his order, another report full of panic rang in his ears.

"The right-wing security position was breached by the Eighth Route Army, at least one thousand Eighth Route Army came towards us..."

"They are very powerful, not the recruits we have encountered before..."

Miyazawa was even more shocked after hearing this, and immediately doubled the retreat distance, turned around and started running.

"The whole army retreats ten kilometers back, let's go now..."

…………

"Comrades, the little devils have nothing to be afraid of, they all kill me..." Wei Dayong rushed to the front of the team like a murderer.

The submachine gun in his arms was like a death harvester. Wherever the bullets went, the little devils more than 100 meters ahead were shot and fell to the ground.

After a while, the machine gun stopped firing, and Wei Dayong's attention was immediately attracted by a crooked handle thrown by the devil on the side of the road.

Resolutely threw the submachine gun in his arms on the ground, picked up the crooked handle that the little devil had discarded, loaded the bullets, and continued to fire forward.

Huang Yu smiled wryly.

He has warned Wei Dayong more than once that as the battalion commander, he can no longer rush to the battlefield when he hears the charge number like before, but no matter how he warns him, he can't change his temper. He can only wait for the troops to stabilize and arrange a supervisor for the second battalion. Live with him as an instructor.

Grand Master Miyazawa quickly retreated under the protection of the guard squadron, but there were too many Eighth Route Army attacking them around, and no matter where he ran, he could hear the shouts of killing that frightened him.

In the eyes of the devils, the three garrison regiments in the Yizhong base area were all small regiments, with a strength of just over a thousand troops.

In fact, each garrison regiment has more than 2000 people, plus a main force regiment of nearly 3000 people, the total strength has exceeded [-].

In order to deal with emergencies, Kong Jie mobilized a total of 8000 people to participate in the siege.

2000 people pretended to attack Yi County, 2000 people fought against it, and the remaining 4000 people were all held in Huang Yu's hands as commandos.

Although most of the troops are mainly recruits, their combat effectiveness is very poor, and they can only take advantage of the real commandos, but it is no problem to shout slogans and scare devils.

The troops of six companies, with companies as units, are 500 meters apart from each other, lurking in turn on the only way for the devils to retreat.

When the devil passed by for his life, he suddenly came out of his hiding place, and the rifle and machine gun fired together, which made the little devil who was already demoralized even more frightened.In an instant, they turned into a group of frightened rabbits, running faster than before, without any courage to fight.

…………

In the Japanese field artillery position, the battle was smoother than Deng Jingye imagined.

Mortars stared at the artillery positions and exploded. Its shells were less powerful and mainly killed people with fragments.

As long as they don't hit the ammunition pile and detonate the field artillery shells on the position, they can cause maximum damage to the devil gunner while keeping the field artillery.

The mountain artillery and the infantry artillery stared at the devils, and the first round of salvos knocked out the two heavy machine guns that the devils had set up on the high ground.

The Feilei artillery platoon immediately placed six Feilei artillery pieces under the eyes of the Japanese army.

Six explosives the size of a millstone rolled and smashed into the devil's position. The explosion sounded like thunder, and the orange-red fireball shot into the sky, reaching a height of more than ten meters.

With the impact point as the center, the little devils within a radius of 30 meters are either dead or injured, and lose their combat effectiveness instantly.

More than half of the little devils standing in front of Deng Jingye were blown up on the spot.

Although the second brigade left half of the brigade to protect the field artillery positions, the total strength exceeded 500 people.

But these little devils need to be divided into four, to defend the four directions of the position, and there are at most 150 little devils in front of Deng Jingye.

The mountain artillery and the infantry artillery knocked out two heavy machine gun teams, and the six flying mine cannons killed another sixty or seventy little devils. There were at most forty or fifty devils left in the blocking position ahead.

But he has more than 1000 people in his hand, and a commando team composed of [-] veterans, who can kill these remnants and defeated generals with one smear.

Standing up from the hiding place holding the box cannon: "Machine gun cover, the whole army attacks, let me sweep the little devil's field artillery position, kill..."

The captain of the devil's second brigade was lucky not to stand in front of Deng Jingye, otherwise he would have turned into a corpse by now.

But he did not let Deng Jingye rush into the field artillery positions.

As soon as he confirmed Deng Jingye's main attack direction, he led the reinforcements. As a result, Deng Jingye's attack speed was too fast. Halfway through, he saw the Eighth Route Army break through the blocking position, like an unstoppable torrent, and quickly rushed towards the field artillery position.

The opponent has more than 1000 troops, with high morale, excellent equipment, and a large number of artillery to help out.

There are only more than 200 people around me.

The artillerymen were being stared at by the Eighth Route Army mortars, too busy to take care of themselves, unable to fight back.

Continuing to charge forward is tantamount to courting death if an egg hits a rock.

Since the field artillery position is doomed to fail, it is better to keep the soldiers around and let them play a greater role in other battlefields.

Immediately ordered: "The Eighth Route Army's offensive is too fierce to be stopped. Everyone turns around and enters the artillery position. Bring the surviving gunners to break out and retreat together. By the way, blow up the wild artillery that cannot be taken away. It must not fall into the hands of the Eighth Route Army."

 The second update is delivered today, please order in full!
