Chapter 258: Annihilation of the Gong Qi Division (2)
It is almost autumn, but the old bald sub-peak is not full of color, but everywhere is a lush, vibrant scene, the bare scene of the peak is still shrouded in dense fog.
The late autumn night is endlessly cool, and the mountains and forests are less insects and birds, which makes it seem unusually quiet. Du Sheng walked southwest of the old bald peak with nearly 200 elite members of the New First Army, the headquarters and the first and second columns.
A cliff dozens of meters long blocked the way, and Twilight looked back helplessly. The news that Yuan brought back said that he could walk here, and along the way, Twilight finally realized that Yuan was able to walk, but for him, even if the commando team was an elite unit, it was extremely difficult to walk. Fortunately, he was as light as a swallow, and many cliffs were passed with his help.
Take a closer look at the cliff, then straddle a rope and unfold it for nearly 20 meters, with one end fixed to a tree. He took a sharp breath, ran some distance, stared three feet on the cliff, and landed on a tree on the cliff. Take a break and continue jumping across the cliff.
In less than ten minutes, he reached the opposite side of the cliff, tied the other end of the rope to a tree, and learned a few bird calls, before Twilight pulled the rope and pedaled the cliff wall to the opposite side.
With the help of five ropes, it took nearly an hour and nearly two hundred to reach the other side of the cliff.
"Chief of Staff, there are about 20 kilometers to the top of the mountain, there are some devils' light and dark sentinels, I was afraid of startling the grass and snakes last time, so I didn't move them."
"Senior brother, I now find out that Master was so biased back then, and my skills are less than half of yours, hey!" Twilight didn't give any instructions on the situation, but lamented that his skills were not as good as others.
"Senior brother, I am a martial artist, but I don't have the ability to command a war like you, this is long and the other is short, this is short and the other is long, you can't be too greedy, God has given you one side of excellence, you will definitely take it back"
"Senior brother, let's go back and listen to your nagging, it's important to hurry now. Zhao Xing, order the troops to endure fatigue, now there are still three hours before dawn, we must rush forward another fifteen kilometers, otherwise we will not be able to catch up with the rear of the devil at eleven o'clock tomorrow night. ”
After Zhao Xing got the order, he went to the back to convey the order.
"Senior brother, why don't we reach the top of the mountain in one breath and then rest, anyway, I went to the top of the mountain last time when it was dawn."
Twilight shook his head as he walked back, "Senior brother, that's you, you think we all have your skills, if you break the commander's plan, it will be bad, it's better to find a place to hide and rest after dawn, the closer the distance, the denser the Japanese reconnaissance force will be, it's better to be careful." ”
On September 21st, when the sun sank into the horizon with the last ray of light, Qiao Xinyu became a little nervous, success or failure in this move, whether the commando team can be in place on time will determine whether the Gongqi division can be eliminated this time, he looked at Lin Junxiong, who was calm and relaxed, and admired him for being so calm.
When the time reached 9 o'clock in the evening, Lin Junxiong stood up violently, "Yushan, order all attacking troops to be in position according to the deployment and launch an attack on time at eleven o'clock." ”
At ten o'clock in the evening, Du Sheng and the assault team rushed to the top of the old bald Zifeng, and the Japanese soldiers on the mountain were quietly wiped out under the guidance of Yuan.
"There is still an hour left, we immediately sneak into the rear of the Japanese army, and when the commander's general attack is launched, we will give them a hard blow."
When Dusk Sheng and nearly 200 commandos quietly advanced towards the rear of the Japanese army by hiding in the twilight, the Japanese army position was quiet, and everyone knew the weakness of the Japanese army's poor night fighting, and Gong Qi did not expect that the new army would dare to take the initiative to attack at night, with a condescending advantage, and he even dreamed that after the reinforcements arrived, he could defeat or even annihilate the Yamashita troops.
Tonight, the Japanese troops, as usual, were not much alert, and after dinner, in addition to a large number of troops left in the front, only a small number of personnel were arranged in the rear.
At 10:55 p.m., Dusk Sheng beckoned, and nearly 200 commandos rushed out like wolves and tigers by taking advantage of the lighting on the Japanese position, slaughtering the sleeping soldiers in the Japanese gathering place.
At 11 o'clock, Lin Junxiong gave an order, and the artillery began to bombard the Japanese position, Gong Qi had just been woken up by the news of the attack in the rear, and he was still a little drowsy, and the sound of the artillery in the front made him completely sober, he immediately ordered a brigade to encircle and suppress the raiding troops in the rear, and he took the remaining troops to the front position to command the counterattack.
What puzzled Gong Qi was that the frontal shelling only lasted less than ten minutes, and he didn't know if it was because the mountain roads were difficult to travel, the new army's artillery shells were not well transported, or if Lin Junxiong had any other intentions, and he didn't have time to figure out the intention of the frontal attack troops, but the screams from the rear made him frightened.
The terrain reconnaissance team of Old Balding Zifeng reconnoitred very carefully, and it was impossible for a large number of troops to fly over from the cliffs in the rear, where there was no way out, but almost all the screams coming from the rear were made by his own soldiers, and he suddenly became frightened in his heart.
"Report, the rear encirclement and suppression brigade has been wiped out!"
"Nani, more than a thousand people are all gone, how is it possible, how many enemies are there behind? Can anyone tell me, Yaga, you bunch of shit! Gong Qi whipped a few officers like crazy, and when the frontal shelling sounded again, he stopped, "Kaan Jiajun, take your wing to quickly destroy the raiding troops behind, and you must not underestimate the enemy." ”
The shelling lasted only ten minutes, but the sound of shell explosions did not stop, and explosions were everywhere along the first line of defense.
Half an hour later, a disgraced officer came to report, "The first line of defense has been lost, the enemy does not know what new weapons are being used, and is bombarding our positions indiscriminately.
"Yaga! You don't know how to fight back, what about your grenadiers? ”
The officer covered his beaten face and said aggrievedly: "They haven't been within range of our grenadiers, and we've suffered eighty percent casualties before we see their shadows, so there's really no way to hold on." ”
"Report, news came from the Piece Armor Wing that hundreds of enemies in the rear are suspected to be elites, our army has suffered heavy casualties, and it is no longer able to resist, and important facilities such as ammunition and material depots are gone."
"It is reported that the second line of defense is under heavy attack from the frontal enemy, the enemy is attacking outside the range, and our troops are powerless."
Gong Qi was just in a bad mood at the beginning, a little frightened, but at this moment, he couldn't resist the situation on both sides, although the third line of defense where he was located was the main defensive position, concentrating the elite 10,000 people of the entire division, but at this moment he was not confident that he could hold out for long.
In just one hour, the casualties have exceeded one-third of the entire division, and most of the soldiers didn't even see what the enemy looked like before they died.
It is impossible to break through, and the next thing can only be pinned on the third line of defense can be held until reinforcements arrive, but God knows how long it can be held.
"Order all troops to retreat to the third line of defense and hold on with all their might!" Gong Qi gave the order with great difficulty, and then sat down with a rock.
Lin Junxiong looked at the situation on the battlefield with a telescope, and after a while, he turned around and said, "It's over, let Yuan Wei and Dusheng get in touch from the left side, and hold on to the danger." ”
When Shen Yushan heard Lin Junxiong's order, he was a little puzzled, why didn't he go all out in such a good situation? He looked at Qiao Xinyu again, and Qiao Xinyu nodded at him with a smile on his face.
"Yushan, don't worry, the commander has made arrangements, I mobilized thousands of people to work all day, don't waste our strength in vain." Qiao Xinyu said with a smile.
"Old Qiao, don't worry, it will not be in vain for the hard work of the people of Mengjiang, as soon as this matter spreads, it is estimated that it will inspire the people of Northeast China to participate in the war, all the people are soldiers, and the 30 million people in Northeast China will resist together, and it is estimated that they will be able to fight to the Japanese mainland."
Shen Yushan saw that the two chiefs were vague and couldn't figure out the situation, so he had to go out and give orders.
Gong Qi felt very tired, he wanted to sleep, but he was not reconciled, he came to Tonghua Province with Yoshioka Tatsuno, listened to a lot of rumors about Lin Junxiong, and always wanted to compete with Lin Junxiong, now in such a crisis, can there still be such a chance?
"It is reported that the left line of defense has been broken through, the enemy in the rear has converged with the enemy in front and is deployed on the left side, but there is no sign of an attack on us, and the enemy is also found to be gathering and preparing for an attack on the right side."
Could it be that the New First Army wants to besiege itself? If the left and right flanks were broken through at the same time, the third line of defense would lose half of its effect, and Gong Qi looked at several officers and found that they were all buried in their heads, perhaps because of their anger that night made them dare not speak.
"Katajia-kun, you've fought the enemy head-on, let's talk about it."
"Dazuo, the enemy's individual soldier quality is extremely strong, far more than our army, and the weapons and equipment are also stronger than ours, at the moment there are more than 11,000 people left in the 62nd Division, and there is still an hour before dawn, subordinates suggest that it is recommended to break through from the right side, and then march all the way to the south, as long as we meet with reinforcements, we still have a chance to make a comeback."
Gong Qi sighed long, "That's the only way, we can't wait for them to break through on the right side, then we can't go if we want to, order the troops, break through from the right side at full speed." ”
What puzzled Gong Qi was that the new army on the right was defenseless, and it wasn't until he ran all the way for half an hour that he came to the bottom of a cliff, watching the sky gradually brighten, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the hope of Gong Qi's division was still there.
Suddenly, there was an overwhelming shouting of killing, countless stones rolled down from the top of the cliff, Gong Qi couldn't dodge being hit by a stone, he fell to the ground, watching his blood flowing out, he wanted to call for help, but all around him were panicked soldiers blindly shooting, calling for help, and shouting surrender, he finally couldn't help but fall asleep tiredly.
At dawn, the corpses of the Japanese army were everywhere under the cliff, the Gongqi division was annihilated, and the dozens of surviving people were also beaten to death by the people of Mengjiang County, who were bullied by the Japanese.
