Lu Hai and the others quickly evacuated after killing Akiyama Yoshiyoshi, but the war had just reached its climax. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

It was now five o'clock in the afternoon, and the fierce attack launched by the Japanese army had failed, so how could the defenders on the hill let go of this excellent opportunity to annihilate the enemy?

Wan Baobang picked up the phone and said: "Yang Hongyuan, order your troops to attack on all fronts and cooperate with Zeng Zesheng to inflict heavy losses on the Japanese army"!

"Brigade commander, I am the correspondent of the regiment headquarters, and the regiment commander personally led the team out to pursue the Japanese army"!

Wan Baobang put down the phone and laughed: "The Ninth Division? That's it"!

Saying that, Wan Baobang picked up the phone again and said: "Most of the Japanese army has been defeated by our army and is now in pursuit, but in order to retaliate against the Japanese army later, I ask for more troops"!

"Good! Well done, the reinforcements will arrive later, you must adjust the battle line in time to prevent the Japanese army from retaliating"! Zhang Chong said happily.

"Yes"!

All those who could still pursue were involved, and Wan Baobang also opened fire on the retreating Japanese troops.

At the same time, Yang Hongyuan ordered his two battalions to prepare to divide the Japanese army, and even one of the businesses on his original position was personally led by him to go out to pursue the Japanese army.

The whole valley echoed with terrifying shouts of killing, some were running frantically, some were frantically pursuing, Zeng Zesheng who rushed to the front had already strangled with the Japanese army, the machine guns were spraying revenge bullets, the bayonets were frantically stabbing at each other, and the Japanese troops who had been discouraged were routed one after another, almost unable to stop decent resistance.

At this time, the two battalions of Yang Hongyuan's regiment took advantage of the division and blockade of artillery fire, and arranged defensive lines on the valleys on both sides, preparing to annihilate the thousands of Japanese troops who were separated in one fell swoop.

Yang Hongyuan's last battalion also participated, but they were responsible for fighting the Japanese army's reinforcement troops, Yang Hongyuan's commander shouted to kill the devil and take the lead in firing, and the fierce fire will be ready to turn around to rescue the Japanese army, and the head rats are scattered, and there are many casualties.

In the mountains and forests not far away, seeing that they had already attacked and pursued the Japanese army on all fronts, Lu Hai opened his mouth and said: "The strength of a battalion of Regiment Commander Yang cannot stop the attack of the Japanese army, and we will go over to support them"!

At this time, Yang Hongyuan also held a machine gun and fired fiercely at the Japanese troops who came back to rescue, but after all, the number of Japanese troops was much larger than them, but fortunately, they had artillery bombardment support, which made it impossible for the Japanese army to break through for a while, and it also avoided the convergence of Japanese troops.

The Japanese army is well-trained, there will be no major rout, how can they let their troops be surrounded and annihilated, even in terms of face, they don't say much, after all, today is the first battle between the 60th Army and the 9th Division, and it is just that the 60th Army has not been defeated.

Even though the battalion led by Yang Hongyuan opened fire with all its might, it was still unable to stop the frantic counterattack of the Japanese army, and under the fierce fire of the Japanese army of a brigade, the casualties of Yang Hongyuan's battalion gradually increased.

At this time, the Japanese were launching a fierce charge, trying to break the strength of this battalion, tearing the encirclement of the besieging Japanese troops.

"Commander, the devil is crazy, we can't hold it"!

"If you can't hold it, you have to defend it, concentrate your firepower on Lao Tzu, and fire when you get closer"! Yang Hongyuan shouted as he shot.

When hundreds of people in the battalion were only 50 meters away from them, Yang Hongyuan said loudly: "Concentrate firepower and fight!" ā€

Immediately, the entire battalion opened heavy fire on a squadron that had advanced from the Japanese. In the dense gunfire, the soldiers of this squadron were beaten on their backs, and at this moment, the Japanese mortars and mountain artillery were fiercely bombarded Yang Hongyuan.

In the dense roar, the casualties of Yang Hongyuan's battalion should not be underestimated, and at the same time, the Japanese infantry began to charge again.

"Regiment commander, if we don't withdraw, we will be the ones who will be completely annihilated"! The commander of the third battalion said urgently.

At this moment, a bullet with a big cover of 38 hit Yang Hongyuan's shoulder, the machine gun in Yang Hongyuan's hand suddenly stopped, and the guards were about to come up to check Yang Hongyuan's injuries, Yang Hongyuan said angrily: "I can't die after being bitten by mosquitoes, all the infantry are bayonets, and the machine guns move quickly to both sides to provide fire support.

Just when the Japanese army rushed up, Yang Hongyuan took the lead and shouted: "Follow Lao Tzu and kill these grandsons"!

Shouting and shouting, a battalion of infantry with only more than 300 men suddenly turned over, straightened their bayonets and carried out a counterattack against the Japanese attacking troops.

A few meters away, a few steps away, the Japanese firepower did not have time to suppress them, so they were strangled by Yang Hongyuan and them in the crowd of Japanese soldiers, instantly turning a war into a bayonet battle.

Several heavy machine guns left by Yang Hongyuan were also hidden in the rocks behind the dense forest at this time, and fired at the Japanese follow-up troops to slow down the Japanese offensive.

On the hillside, the troops fought with the Japanese army again with bayonets, Yang Hongyuan regimental commander carried a thick-backed machete and slashed with the Japanese army, a Japanese soldier just failed to stab and was hacked to the ground by Yang Hongyuan, and then the blade rolled upside down, hacking a Japanese soldier to death on the spot, and then chasing the next Japanese soldier and slashing hard.

The soldiers in the field were also red with the Japanese bayonets, due to the heavy machine gun fire, the Japanese follow-up troops were suppressed, and the forward troops were also stabbed by these tiger-wolf soldiers and dropped more than 100 corpses and retreated.

At this time, Yang Hongyuan's soldiers were also killed and wounded more than half, and before they could breathe, the Japanese artillery began to shoot heavy machine guns in the dense forest.

The Japanese army, which almost dumbed down all the heavy machine guns of the third battalion, once again launched a fierce offensive, and Yang Hongyuan shouted: "Grenade, blow up these sons of bitches"!

At the same time, behind them, because of the strength of their three battalions, a brigade of the Japanese army could not retreat and was frantically attacking the blockade line of Yang Hongyuan's two battalions, and here, Zeng Zesheng's troops launched fierce attacks again and again, and many fronts had begun to fight bayonets because the two armies were too close.

Many soldiers of the Ninth Division then understood why the Banyuan Division would suffer heavy losses in front of this 60th Army, these people were not inferior to them in terms of military quality or stabbing skills, and the casualties of the Japanese army were obviously much more than those of our army, and under the right pursuit of Zeng Zesheng's regiment, the encirclement was gradually narrowed to the blocking force of Yang Hongyuan's regiment.

If you want to survive, you can only break through the resistance of Yang Hongyuan's regiment, you can imagine how much pressure Yang Hongyuan's three battalions faced in the face of the already crazy Japanese army, but these two battalions gathered danger and defended, stuck the way of the Japanese army's retreat, and repelled the Japanese army's fierce offensive again and again.

Wan Baobang observed the fierce battle situation in front of him through a telescope and ordered: "Heavy artillery company, your unit bombarded the 50-meter area outside our army's blockade line to relieve Yang Hongyuan's pressure"!

"Yes"!

Wan Baobang just put down the phone, but the phone rang again, Wan Baobang picked up the phone and said: "I am Wan Baobang"!

"Wan Baobang, you are encircling and annihilating the Japanese army"? Zhang Chong's voice came.

"Yes!" Wan Baobang said.

"In order to prevent the Japanese from sending reinforcements, you must end the battle as soon as possible, and if you can't do it, you will try to inflict heavy losses"! Zhang Chong said.

"Yes"!

On the battlefield at this time, the strength of a battalion of Yang Hongyuan was already heavily killed and wounded under the many crazy charges of the Japanese army, and now there are only more than 100 people alive, and many soldiers are also scarred in battle, but the Japanese army is still blocked here and unable to move forward.

At this moment, the Japanese launched a new offensive under the cover of artillery fire.

"Commander, you quickly retreat, we will defend here"! The third battalion commander said.

"What about your fart? Lao Tzu is the kind of person who is greedy for life and afraid of death? I have brought you here, and if you want to die, you will die together!" Yang Hongyuan said angrily.

"Hit"!

Everyone opened fire with rifles again, but the firepower was obviously weakened a lot, although the Japanese army had casualties, but the offensive was still strong, just when the Japanese army was about to rush up, Yang Hongyuan shouted: "Brothers, the time has come to martyrdom, fight with the little devils"!

"Fight!" Everyone shouted in unison to prepare for the impact, and just as the devils were about to rush up their hillside, the dense woods not far away suddenly thought of dense gunfire.

The Japanese troops in front of him suddenly fell in large pieces, Yang Hongyuan saw that it was the second battalion he had sent out earlier, and the commander of the second battalion shouted while shooting: "Regiment commander, you are fine!"

"Lao Tzu is still alive, give me a hard beating"! Yang Hongyuan said this, picked up the machine gun and fired fiercely.

"Where's that little bastard Lu Hai"? Yang Hongyuan shouted.

"I'm here, brothers, beat me hard"! Lu Hai spoke on the left flank.

With the addition of Lu Hai's two battalions, and in addition to the terrain, the Japanese offensive lasted only ten minutes before it was defeated, and the sky gradually darkened.

What they didn't know was that reinforcements from two brigades of the Japanese army were moving rapidly in the direction where they were.

Zeng Zesheng, who was in charge of the pursuit, was frantically attacking the Japanese army's temporary defense line with his soldiers at this time, and the Japanese army resisted to the death, and Zeng Zesheng also fiercely attacked the last two squadrons of the Japanese army with more than 500 Japanese troops.

"You go and inform the 1st and 4th Battalions that our defense line has been stabilized and we can launch a general attack on the besieged Japanese army"! Yang Hongyuan said to the correspondent.

"Yes"!

At this time, the Japanese army launched a fierce offensive again under the offensive of artillery fire, Yang Hongyuan ordered everyone to fire again, and at this moment, Chen Liang led a few people to run the runway Lu Hai and said: "Xiaohai, the devil's reinforcements are coming"!

"How many people"?

"Two brigades"!

"Hurry up and inform the brigade commander that they are ready early... (To be continued.) )
