The earth-shattering explosion made the Japanese army panic, and the remaining dozens of Japanese troops who rushed to the front were constantly wiped out in panic and fear, Utanishiro clenched his fists, he ordered the artillery to move forward and carry out non-stop shelling of the dense forest, and then ordered another squadron to quickly restore the blown road.

Gao Shang and the guard company excitedly commanded the annihilation of the remaining Japanese troops in front, while Lin Junxiong observed the movements of the Japanese army with a telescope, and saw that the Japanese artillery was constantly moving forward, Lin Junxiong immediately ordered the troops to rush out of the dense forest to the road, and after eliminating the enemy blocked in front, quickly retreat along the road.

After Lin Junxiong rushed to the road with more than 100 troops, the Japanese artillery shells continued to fall into the dense forest, and the Japanese troops who were blocked in front were quickly annihilated, and only a few people jumped into the river to escape. The Japanese officers who commanded the artillery saw the Nationalist troops who had ambushed them rushing to the road and immediately ordered to adjust their firing.

The shells continued to explode on the road, Lin Junxiong led the team to quickly retreat to the position where the shells could not be shot, looking back, the road was destroyed by Japanese artillery fire in many places, he led the troops away, and Uta Shiro behind him kept yelling at the officer who commanded the artillery: "Baga, Baga, who ordered you to shoot at the road, do you know that this is the only road to Zhuyuan Village." ”

Before Lin Junxiong left, he detonated the explosives arranged in the narrow place, using a grenade to detonate, cutting the lead to five centimeters, and arranging three grenades at the lead, respectively, using three different concealed ways to pull the ring, as long as the Japanese accidentally touched one place, the explosives would be immediately detonated.

Gao Shang followed Lin Junxiong excitedly, humming a little song in his mouth, as if he had never fought so happily, and the soldiers of a guard company quickly reported casualties, and the guard company lost 28 people, 12 were injured. Gao Shang disappreciatively arranged to take proper care of the wounded, and said to Lin Junxiong: "Regiment commander, my brothers are good, 28 casualties and 12 injuries were exchanged for at least more than 100 Japanese casualties. ”

Lin Junxiong shook his head, sighed and said: "In the ambush battle I commanded, this time was the most casualty, except for the unavoidable sacrifice of soldiers who had no time to retreat to a safe distance when the Japanese shelled the highway later, the soldiers who died in the encounter with the Japanese army should not be." ”

Gao Shang's excited expression was swept away, and he became a little lonely.

"An ambush battle, nearly half of the casualties of the guard company, Gao Company Commander, it's really not me who hit you, you must always be aware of everything on the battlefield in the war, be ready to respond at any time, rush and fight like you just now, causing a lot of undeserved casualties, if you organize this ambush war independently, you can tell me, how many soldiers will be left in the end?"

Gao Shang gritted his teeth and whispered, "Maybe it will all be destroyed." ”

"Brother, failure is not terrible, what is terrible is that you can never think of where you failed, you are a good man, but if you want to become an excellent officer, you need to constantly hone yourself and summarize yourself. I took your guard company out for this ambush this time, in fact, the main purpose is to take this opportunity for you to recognize yourself, the road ahead is still very long, and the war will be full of countless variables, brothers do and grow, and fight and summarize, I believe you will grow into an excellent officer. ”

"Can I really?"

"Believe me, you said that the troops you led are more than brave, and there are some deficiencies in strategy, as long as you watch and think more during the 89th regiment, you will definitely be able to become a good commander."

"Commander, can I stay with you in the future and learn more from you?"

"Let's talk about this after this battle is over."

When Lin Junxiong returned to the temporary regiment headquarters with the guard company, it was already late at night, and after Pan Zhiyang saw that Lin Junxiong came back intact, the stone hanging in his heart finally landed, but seeing Gao Shang's head drooping, he thought that he had lost the battle, and comforted: "It's good to come back safely, we still have the commanding heights of Zhuyuanling." ”

"The blocking is very smooth, but the casualties are a little larger, and the Japanese army will not be able to reach the front of Zhuyuan Ridge until tomorrow night at the earliest."

Hearing this news, Pan Zhiyang pointed at Gao Shang and asked, "That Gao Company Commander"

Gao Shang raised his head and said, "Through this battle, I have realized many of my shortcomings, and I will learn from you humbly in the future." “

Pan Zhiyang laughed after hearing this: "Haha, I have seen the power of our regiment leader, wait and see, there are many times when you open your eyes, you think that the name of the top student of the Berlin Military Academy in Germany is so easy to get." ”

Lin Junxiong was thinking about the situation of the daytime blocking battle along the way, and at this moment he seemed to think of the possible dangerous situation, and he said to Pan Zhiyang: "Old Pan, don't compliment me first, you quickly arrange for someone to deal with the explosives planted on the road, I am afraid that the Japanese army will first cover it with artillery fire, and then use mobile force to quickly go around behind us, so that we will lose all our efforts." ”

"Well, this is easy to handle, I asked them to plant the explosives deeper overnight, and put more big stones on them to reduce the possibility of damage by artillery fire as much as possible."

The next day, Udashiro's brigade of the Japanese army arrived faster than Hayashi had imagined, and at five o'clock in the afternoon he had already arrived at the foot of the Takeyuan Ridge, and after resting for an hour, Utashiro ordered the troops to attack the Takeyuan Ridge, and as for the road, he seemed to realize that there were all kinds of traps there.

After Utashiro ordered his troops to fire a few artillery shells into the Zhuyuanling Heights, he ordered his troops to attack tentatively, and the soldiers of the 89th Regiment, who had been waiting for a long time, beat Udashiro's troops to retreat in a hurry on the first line of defense. A frowning Utanoshiro ordered his troops to retreat a few miles and station, not daring to attack rashly.

When the news of the Japanese army's retreat and stationing in five miles came back to the regiment headquarters, Pan Zhiyang said to Lin Junxiong: "Regiment commander, the Japanese army is a tired division, and the opportunity is rare, do you launch an attack to annihilate these more than 600 Japanese troops in one fell swoop?" ”

"The chances are good, but Utamishiro should be able to shrink the defense, and if we attack rashly, we may not be able to eat them at a high cost. You may not be able to destroy them, but you can turn them into frightened birds. In this way, Lao Pan arranged for the villagers of Zhuyuan Village, who were familiar with the terrain where the Japanese army was stationed, to lead the way, and let the first battalion attack the Japanese army in three batches, and then take advantage of the advantage of being familiar with the terrain to retreat after the battle. ”

"Okay, I'll go and arrange for the first battalion commander immediately, and the regiment commander, you go to rest first."

Thinking that the Japanese reinforcements should arrive soon, Lin Junxiong lay in bed and had no intention of sleeping. On the other hand, Utashiro couldn't sleep even if he wanted to, and as soon as he lay down, the garrison was attacked, and when he got up to organize the troops to counterattack, there was no trace of the national army. Finally fell asleep, and there was the sound of gunfire on the other side, and when the troops were gathered and advanced to search for the national army, there was no trace of it, and Utashiro kept cursing in his heart, if he still had shells, he could shell the suspected area, but the entire brigade had no shells, and wanted to pursue, under this dark curtain, I didn't know what kind of crisis was hanging in front of me, so I had to give up.

In this way, the first battalion of the 89th Regiment attacked the Japanese garrison once every hour in three groups, and Utashiro did not sleep all night, and once he wanted to defend the garrison against the attack of the national army, but the battle got closer and closer, and several grenades even exploded not far from where he lived, which frightened him into a cold sweat.

When Utamishiro went out to check out an hour later, he found that it was almost dawn, and he rubbed his face with his hands and sighed, "This day is finally dawn!" ”

Udashirō's brigade that attacked Uta Shiro lost nearly 100 men in one night, and the soldiers were exhausted, Utamishiro did not know how many national troops there were on the ridge, and fearing that they would be completely annihilated, so he ordered the troops to retreat ten miles early in the morning, waiting for the arrival of the large army.

Uda Sairo belongs to the Nishiyama Masao United, on the afternoon of the 24th, the Nishiyama Masao Wing arrived to meet with the Uta Brigade, and listened to Uta Sairo's report, Nishiyama Masao slapped him more than a dozen times, scolded him dozens of times, until the anger in his heart was vented, and the calm Nishiyama Masao said with a long sigh: "It seems that the opponent we are facing is a little terrible, and Zhuyuan Ridge will not be as easy to pass through as we imagined." ”

On the morning of the 25th, Masao Nishiyama arrived at Zhuyuanling with his troops, and he ordered his troops to attack the Zhuyuanling Heights with all their might. The Japanese three-plate axe offensive remained unchanged, first shelling the attacking targets, then the infantry advance, and the machine guns occupying favorable terrain for firing.

Lin Junxiong calmly commanded the troops to evade the Japanese artillery fire, and then began to counterattack according to the fortifications. After four attacks, the Japanese army left more than 200 corpses, but the battle line had no way to move forward, Nishiyama Masao frowned deeply, pondered for a long time on the simple map drawn by Utashiro, and then said: "Uta-kun, Zhuyuan Ridge is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and our opponent arrived a few days earlier than us, and has already built fortifications, we can only take risks, I order your brigade with mobile troops to break through this road at all costs, and destroy the national army guarding this road, I will send troops to continuously reinforce you." ”

"Hey, please rest assured, my subordinates are sworn to open this passage."

"I will send a brigade to attack you head-on, and this time it will only succeed and not fail."

"Hey!"

After some artillery bombardment, the Japanese attacked again, Lin Junxiong organized a counterattack in the first line of defense, this time the Japanese attack was a little strange, it stopped before it entered the firing range, and then wasted bullets that could not be fired.

Lin Junxiong observed for a while, then suddenly turned to Pan Zhiyang and asked, "Old Pan, what kind of calculation do you say the Japanese army is fighting?" ”

"I also wonder, what kind of performance did the Japanese army play, is it delaying time and waiting for reinforcements?"

"The people of a wing of the Japanese army are here, shouldn't they be waiting for reinforcements, delay the time, right, how many people have been sent to guard the road?"

"The second battalion and the first company said over there that when they blew up that section of the road, it was full of cliffs, and if they wanted to pass through, they could only pass from the road or the river, and it was basically useless from the mountains."

Lin Junxiong thought for a while and said: "Lao Pan, you can't be careless, what if the Japanese army is attacking while filling the bombed-up road?" Immediately transfer all the second battalion to that side, I am afraid that the explosives can only block it for a while, and tell Fang Yun that he must guard the passage of the road. ”
