Special Forces of Crossing: Cloud's Anti-Japanese

Chapter 350 Bloody Battle at Xifengkou (Ambush)

The battle in Wanping City was the first to start. After Li Tieshu reluctantly adopted a war of attrition, the strengths and weaknesses of the Wanping defenders and the Japanese army were gradually expanded.Both Li Tieshu and Ono Chuaner believed that the fall of Wanping City was only a matter of time.However, with the sudden appearance of Zhang Qingyu's department, this situation has been changed.

Ren Qiu, in the war room of the Xuebing Army headquarters, after seeing off the American delegation, Ouyang Yun was frowning and standing in front of the battle map, thinking hard.He used a two-color pencil to draw circles on the map, stopping from time to time to get into long exams.

Ordinarily, after this period of development, the strength of the Xuebing Army is already large enough.However, out of insight into history, Ouyang Yun still felt unable to do what he wanted to do when he had to consider all kinds of problems.

March 1936 was destined to be an eventful year for this country in this time and space.The Xuebing Army, a new military group, was on the cusp of the storm, and it couldn't stop for a moment.

"Report! An urgent telegram from Wanping!" Wang Yanping, the staff officer on duty, stood at the door, holding a telegram and reporting loudly.

Ouyang Yun didn't turn around, and said loudly: "Read!"

"Deputy Commander Li called. With the help of Zhang Qingyu's troops, Wan Ping had already repelled the Japanese attack, but the first brigade and the second regiment suffered heavy casualties. He requested that the defense be handed over to Zhang Qingyu's troops, and that the second regiment be taken down for rest..."

"Wanping defended it?!" Before Wang Yanping finished reading the telegram, several staff officers in the war room raised their heads, and Ouyang Yun went directly in front of him, snatched the telegram, and read ten lines at a glance. After reading the telegram, he said repeatedly: "Okay, okay! Zhang Qingyu did a really good job." Then, his eyes stayed on the number of casualties at the end of the telegram, and the muscles on his cheeks twitched twice, showing a pain look.Instead of asking Wang Yanping to call Li Tieshu back immediately, he asked about the progress of He Zheng's relegation.

"Regimental Commander He and his troops have already arrived at Xifengkou. In addition, the [-]st Tank Battalion and [-]st Self-Propelled Artillery Battalion of the newly formed armored brigade have also arrived at position [-], fifty miles away from Xifengkou..."

Xifengkou was actually lost during the Great Wall’s Anti-Japanese War. However, after the signing of the "Qin-Tu Agreement", because the resistance in the Northeast became stronger and stronger, Nanjiro transferred back the troops stationed at Xifengkou. Instead, it was garrisoned by puppet troops.As a pass in the Yanshan Mountains, Xifengkou is of great importance to the defense of Beiping and Tianjin.Naturally, Ouyang Yun would not give up such an opportunity. Under her personal intervention, Mu Jiandie came forward, not only reversed that part of the puppet army strategy early on, but also, taking the offense and defense of Xifengkou as the subject, the staff of the Xuebing Army early on. A series of combat plans were formulated.And, correspondingly, the surrounding areas were named after certain highlands and positions one by one.

After He Zhengjiang took over the defense of Xifengkou from the puppet army, he immediately began to strengthen the fortifications.Then, after receiving the information from the reconnaissance unit, when they learned that the [-]th Cavalry Regiment, the vanguard of the [-]th Division of the Japanese Army, was only half an hour away from Xifengkou, at the place leading to Xifengkou—— On the hills on both sides of the No. [-] position, a battalion of troops was ambushed.

At around one o'clock in the afternoon, on the mountainside on the left side of the No. [-] position, Yang Kanglu, who had been holding up his binoculars and looking into the distance, finally put down the binoculars.He said to the bugleman and the signal soldier beside him: "Report to the regiment, the little devil is here. Put the flag and let the brothers on the opposite side get ready for battle."

The trumpeter responded, took out two small flags from his body, and waved the semaphore towards the opposite side.The communications soldier picked up the walkie-talkie and began calling the regiment code name.

Yang Kanglu picked up the binoculars again, looked at it for a while and said in a low voice: "My boy, there are a lot of people in the water!" Putting down the binoculars, he shouted in a low voice: "Brothers, you are all in hiding. , Pay attention to my orders!"

Ten minutes later, in the sight of the soldiers, billowing dust rose from the end of the winding mountain road, and in a short while, a group of devil cavalry appeared in everyone's sight.After another 10 minutes or so, there were 10 devil cavalry walking in a line at the Chaoxi Peak Pass without hurrying.

"The little devil is quite vigilant!" Seeing the dozen or so leading devils looking up the mountain from time to time, and one of the devil's officers even set up his binoculars, Yang Kanglu sneered and shrank his neck.

The officers and soldiers of their regiment wore camouflage uniforms, and even the helmets were camouflaged with camouflage cloth. It is basically impossible for the devils to distinguish them from the mountain.

The ghost officer's binoculars rotated 180 degrees in front of him, as if confirming that there was no ambush on both sides. With a wave of his hand, the entire team picked up speed again, and ran towards the entrance of Xifeng with a kick.

"Closer!" Yang Kanglu muttered silently in his heart, and when the dozen or so devil cavalrymen in front passed him, he suddenly raised his pistol, and shouted loudly while firing: "Fight!"

"Hit!" "Ping ping pong pong", following a series of shouts, gunshots rang out.Later, dozens of grenades fell from the mountainsides on both sides, and amidst the "rumbling" explosions, the devil cavalry who were in the ambush circle were beaten to the ground.A dozen people were killed in an instant.

"There is an ambush! Rush over—" As soon as the gunshot rang out, the devil officer who had experienced many battles immediately shouted, and issued the most correct order.I saw him pinching the horse's belly with both legs, tightening the reins and trying to rush over.However, as an officer, his target was too obvious. How could the nearly [-] apprentice soldiers on both sides let this big fish go? He had just leaned on his horse, and a few bullets had already chased him. One of the shots hit the horse's head, and the other shot hit his head, and he and the tall horse were immediately let down on the couch at the same time.

The attack came too suddenly, and the squadron leader who led the team died too early, and the little devil's team immediately fell into chaos.Some people desperately wanted to break through the death zone, some were dismounted by the frightened horses, and some struggled to control the frightened horses while holding a gun with one hand in a vain attempt to fight back against the attackers.

"Come on! Destroy them!" Seeing that the first wave of blows had achieved the desired effect, Yang Kanglu immediately stood up and shouted, and then took the lead to rush down the mountain.

"Beep beep!" The trumpeter stood upright on a big rock, puffed out his cheeks, and blew the charge horn.Then, the soldiers scrambled out of the bunker, screaming loudly: "Kill!" and rushed down the mountain with weapons.

After the Devil Cavalry passed through the initial panic, under the dispatch of several low-level officers, there was a tendency to stabilize at this time.Dozens of them even pulled out their sabers, turned their horses' heads and rushed up the mountain without fear of death.However, in the face of the close firepower of the "Wei Qing style" assault rifles, their seemingly heroic actions were so stupid that they were beaten into a hornet's nest with just one encounter.

Yang Kanglu was known as "Crazy Yang" when he fought. He rushed to the front, firing bursts with his shell gun, and shouted excitedly: "Brothers, don't let any one go! Give me a hard time!" Hit hard!"
