Twelve kilometers north of Lushun City is the station of the 11th Independent Mixed Brigade of the Kwantung Army, two of the three wings are stationed here, and the remaining one wing is stationed in Lushun City, responsible for protecting the security of the Kwantung Army Headquarters.

The 11th Mixed Brigade was originally adapted from the Osaka Local Garrison, and it was a very strong combat unit, and their first landing operation was on the Goryeo Peninsula, and the Goryeo government at that time was simply vulnerable, and they were easily pushed to Pyongyang, and the 11th Independent Mixed Brigade also became famous.

After that, the 11th Independent Mixed Brigade was stationed in the Pyongyang area of the Goryeo Peninsula to take charge of local security, that is, it was transferred to the three eastern provinces only three months ago to take charge of the security of the Kwantung Army Headquarters in Lushun.

As soon as this unit arrived in Lushun, it fought several tough battles one after another, and the four anti-Japanese forces were wiped out by them, and it can be said that they were quite famous.

The 11th Independent Mixed Brigade has a total strength of 5,000 people, divided into three wings, in addition to an artillery wing, a cavalry wing, and a tank brigade.

It was precisely because of their amazing combat effectiveness that the task of holding the choke point leading to Port Arthur on the line of the Great Wilderness Mountain fell to them.

Great Wilderness Mountain is a mountain located in the north of the Lushun Peninsula, where most of the mountains are not high, although the altitude is not high, but because of the important location, it has important military strategic value.

The devils put the 11th Separate Mixed Brigade here, which played a good role in holding it.

After more than 20 minutes of galloping, Li Wengong's regiment finally arrived at the front line of the Great Wilderness Mountain and Montenegro.

Stopping about four or five kilometers away from the Great Wilderness Mountain and Montenegro, the troops rested in a col for five minutes before continuing their departure.

Li Wengong opened the electronic map, which showed a map of the surroundings of Port Arthur. His finger slowly moved on the map, and finally stopped near the Great Wilderness Mountain and Black Mountain.

"Commander, are you looking for me?" At this moment, a dark-skinned middle-aged man hurried in, with a pistol at his waist, a Kevlar steel helmet on his head, and a rank on his shoulder indicating that he was a captain.

This is the commander of the first battalion of Li Wengong's regiment, named Gong Xinliang, and one of Li Wengong's right-hand men.

Li Wengong waved his hand at him, and Gong Xinliang hurriedly came to his side, also looking down at the electronic map.

"Gong Xinliang, I have a task for you to perform." Li Wengong looked at the electronic map and said without looking back, "Have you seen the distribution of the devil's troops on the front line of the Great Wilderness Mountain and Black Mountain?" ”

Of course, Gong Xinliang saw it, so he replied, "Yes, I saw it, head of the regiment." ”

"The devils have deployed troops on the front line of the Great Wilderness Mountain, the Little Wilderness Mountain, the Black Mountain, and the Dawang Mountain, completely blocking the passage to the Lushun Peninsula, if we want to rush to Port Arthur, then we must pass through the defensive positions of the devils." Li Wengong said, stretching out his hand and pointing to the map, "This is Montenegro, where the enemy's troop deployment is the strongest, and the Dawang Mountain in the northwest of Montenegro is much weaker, so I am ready to break through from the front line of Dawang Mountain." ”

"Commander, you're planning to let me feint and attract the attention of the devil." Gong Xinliang is worthy of being Li Wengong's favorite general, and he immediately figured out his plan, and suddenly became excited, "It's really good, how do you know that I can't hold it back for a long time, head of the regiment." ”

"Haha, I don't know what your kid is thinking." Li Wengong smiled, but then put it away, "This mission may be difficult, you have to be mentally prepared to achieve it." ”

Gong Xinliang stood solemnly, "Regiment leader, I'm not afraid of hardship, I'm afraid that there will be no battle to fight." ”

"Okay, since that's the case, then you lead a battalion to feint on Montenegro to attract the attention of the devils, and then I will lead the troops to quietly cover the position of the devils in Dawang Mountain, and break through while they are unprepared." Li Wengong put away the electronic map, "I think Zhou He's independent Fifth Brigade is also about to arrive at the Great Wilderness Mountain at this time, and when the time comes, let's start at the same time and catch the devil off guard." ”

"Okay, that's great, it's enough for the devil to eat a pot." Gong Xinliang happily squeezed his thighs, looking eager to start fighting immediately.

Li Wengong shouted to Gong Xinliang, who was about to turn around and walk out, and said, "Gong Xinliang, this time you are a feint, attracting the attention of the devil is the goal, once we successfully break through, you must quickly retreat, follow up from the flank, and break through from the junction between Dawang Mountain and Black Mountain." ”

"Commander, just take a look." Gong Xinliang answered, and ran down to prepare.

Five minutes later, the troops set off again, but quietly divided into two parts, the first battalion headed towards Montenegro under the leadership of Gong Xinliang, while the rest of the troops quietly moved towards Dawang Mountain under the leadership of Li Wengong.

At the same time, Zhou He's independent Fifth Brigade also reached the front line of the Great Wilderness Mountain and the Little Wilderness Mountain, and was ambushed at a suitable location, preparing to storm the devil's position.

In this line, the strength of the Montenegrin devil is the strongest, because although Montenegro is called Montenegro, it is actually just a dirt mountain that is not too high, and there is no particularly dangerous terrain.

Therefore, this is the main communication artery to Arthur, and for the sake of safety, the devils have deployed two brigades here, in addition to an artillery squadron and a machine gun squadron, with a total of six mortars, twelve grenadiers, and twenty-four light and heavy machine guns.

Using the bunker fortifications that have been built a long time ago, it can be said that this place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the headquarters of random devils can rest assured.

Gong Xinliang led people to a place less than five hundred meters away from the defensive position of the Black Mountain devils, and ordered the soldiers to lie down and stand by, while he held a telescope to observe the situation of the devils on the opposite side.

Seeing this, Gong Xinliang frowned, because the fortifications of the devil on the opposite side were too tight. Needless to say, the trenches were numerous, and they were full of bunkers and pillboxes, in addition to the machine-gun positions that occupied the commanding terrain.

It can be expected that once the attack is launched, the soldiers will inevitably be exposed to the devil's firepower, and when the devil condescends to sweep it with a machine gun, he is afraid that the more than 500 people will not be able to do anything and will be gone.

"Hard rush, definitely not, then I'll change my strategy." Gong Xinliang looked at the devil's position and thought to himself, while shouting several company commanders under him.

"Strengthen all the heavy machine guns of your companies to the machine gun company, and the machine gun company will give me concentrated fire for a while to suppress the devil's firepower, and then the first and second companies will take the opportunity to grab the first devil's fortification, and then use that trench to hold on, and hold on until the regiment commander breaks the defense line of the Great Wilderness Mountain."

As long as Commander Li Wengong breaks the devil's position and defense line in the Great Wilderness Mountain, then Gong Xinliang on this side can take advantage of the fact that the devils in the Great Wilderness Mountain are panicked and have no time to look west, and force themselves out from the junction of the two devil troops.

Although it is still difficult to do this, there is no way to do it, if you go to find a breakthrough for Commander Li Wengong and them, this time is enough for the devils to reorganize the troops, then Gong Xinliang will encounter an angry devil army, and it will be a vicious battle.
