Chapter 805: Dongyuan Counterattack

Captain Guan Shan Feizhong was ordering the troops to be quickly reorganized and to make preparations for the immediate withdrawal of the Dongyuan defensive line, when he was suddenly hit by the fiercest artillery fire of the Zhina troops, and one shell after another fell on the base camp, which immediately set off a series of powerful explosions.

The storm set off by the explosion of the shells swept through the Japanese troops who were gathered together to prepare for the evacuation, and a lot of little devils fell in the smoke and flames.

Under the cover of artillery fire, the 46th Brigade and the 54th Regiment of the Western Route Army of Zhongtiao Mountain suddenly launched a third crazy attack, and the Japanese troops who were preparing to withdraw from the position were hit by such fierce fire, and the base camp was unprepared to carry out fire resistance in a hurry.

Chief of Staff Kameda rushed to Captain Sekiyama Hinaka and shouted, "Sekiyama Daisa, the Shina troops launched the most ferocious attack on our army, and a brigade serving as a counteroffensive was lured into an ambush and fled to the base camp with heavy casualties.

If we do not withdraw from the Dongyuan defense line in time before dawn, I am afraid that our 77th Wing will suffer a devastating blow. Because of this strong offensive launched by the Chinese troops, with the close cooperation of the 54th Regiment, which is well-armed and has strong combat effectiveness, has formed a very powerful fire attack on our army, please give the order to retreat quickly. ”

"Bastard, where did the 54th Regiment of the Chinese Army come from? Why hadn't this fierce unit been spotted before? ”

"Your Excellency Dazuo, the 54th Regiment is the Zhina unit that set up an ambush in Gumoling to attack the Noda squadron, this unit is not only equipped with strong artillery, but also the combat ability of the troops is also very strong, and now this strong brigade suddenly joined the 46th Brigade to cooperate with the operation, if our army waits for dawn to organize a counteroffensive, I am afraid it will be difficult to withdraw from the battle safely and smoothly.

Once entangled in the Dongyuan defense line, it will be difficult for our army to reach Yaowangtai at the time specified by Shangfeng, and the delay of the fighter will be held accountable for disobedience and disrespect, please do not ...... with the enemy. ”

"Bastard, how can a mere 46th Brigade and 54th Regiment be the opponent of the 77th Wing of the Suzuki Division of the Imperial Japanese Army? If you persist in launching a counteroffensive until dawn, you will definitely wipe out all the Chinese troops that have abandoned their positions and launched an attack at this time. ”

"Your Excellency, I do not deny that the 77th Wing, the bravest and most combat-effective unit of the Imperial Japanese Army, will achieve brilliant results once it launches a counteroffensive against the attacking enemy at dawn, but if it is entangled in the Dongyuan defense line by the Shina troops, we will ......."

Captain Guan Shan Fei Zhong knew very well how dangerous the situation of the troops was at present, and the wisest choice at the moment was to quickly withdraw from the battle under the cover of night and lead the troops to leave the Dongyuan defense line before dawn, so that they could reach Yaowangtai safely and smoothly.

However, this usually arrogant wing commander chose to flee in panic when the troops were heavily damaged, and he was afraid that his subordinates would question his command ability, so he spoke so hard in front of Kameda's chief of staff.

Guan Shan Feizhong Dazuo, who was already at a disadvantage, said arrogantly: "If it weren't for Shangfeng ordering my wing to withdraw from the Dongyuan defense line covertly before dawn, I would have led the 77th Wing to launch a life-and-death battle against the attacking Zhina troops, and I would definitely break through the enemy's Dongyuan defense line, but unfortunately, Shangfeng didn't give me this opportunity." ”

"Your Excellency Dazuo is still wise, you are the best field commander among the commanders above the wing of the Suzuki Division, and the division commander and brigade commander are very recognized, please immediately give the order for the troops to withdraw from the Dongyuan defense line."

Captain Sekiyama Hinaka Wing listened to the flattery of Chief of Staff Kameda, and felt very satisfied, not only ordered the troops to quickly pack up their baggage and retreat to Yaowangtai.

"Your Excellency Dazuo, now our army is facing a very strong attacking enemy, and this branch of the army is attacking like a bamboo, once our army is surrounded here, I am afraid that it will cause a heavy price to the troops if we want to highlight the firepower to encircle."

"Kameda-kun, what do you mean by that? Is it not enough for me to give the order to retreat lightly and discard the bulky military supplies? "Search for e-books

"It is still the wisdom of His Excellency Dazuo, and now the third strong attack launched by the Chinese army is completely a crazy attack on our army under the cover of powerful artillery fire, leaving us not much time, if we want to quickly withdraw from the Dongyuan defense line, we must retreat lightly and quickly."

Captain Guan Shan Feizhong watched the base camp being hit by the powerful artillery fire of the Zhi Na troops, and the explosion of shells kicked up waves of dust and mist in the air, enveloping the base camp in a cloud of gunpowder smoke.

The troops were hit by heavy artillery fire, and the Japanese soldiers fled in all directions in order to avoid the shells, and if they could not assemble their troops in time and evacuate quickly, I am afraid that the troops would have caused heavy damage in a very short time.

He ordered the troops to withdraw from the Dongyuan position lightly armed as quickly as possible, and went straight to Yaowangtai without stopping.

Standing side by side with the commander of the 46th Brigade Kong on a war horse, he stood on the Leiyun Peak on a high ground, watching the Japanese base camp in chaos under artillery fire, and the Japanese soldiers had no will to fight, and fleeing in all directions could not form a combat strength to resist at all.

Not only did he smile and said, "Brigade Commander Kong, this time Captain Guanshan Feizhong would never have thought that he would suffer such a crushing defeat on the Dongyuan Defense Line. ”

"Brother Lei is reasonable, the 46th Brigade has been holding the Dongyuan defense line for six days, and in these six days, it has launched an untold number of offensive and counteroffensive battles with the attacking enemy, and the position has been lost many times and recaptured, but it has never taken the initiative to launch a counteroffensive against the attacking enemy, this is the first time, I wonder if Brother Lei knows the reason?"

"Please give Brigadier Kong advice." Lei Yunfeng didn't have to think about it to know why, but he still asked Brigade Commander Kong to say it himself in a low-key manner.

"Hey, my 46th Brigade did not take the initiative to launch an attack on the Guanshan Feizhong Wing, mainly for two reasons, one is that the troops are poorly armed and equipped, and they cannot be replenished with weapons and ammunition in time, so they dare not consume a large number of bullets to launch an attack.

The second is that our 46 Brigade has been fighting in the northwest and has received an order to forcibly cross the Yellow River to participate in the combat mission of resisting the Japanese army in the Zhongtiao Mountain Theater.

In order to hone the experience of the troops in fighting the Japanese army, it was also based on other reasons, so the troops could only be ordered to take passive defense at the front of the position of the Dongyuan defensive line.

If it weren't for your brother Lei at the critical moment when our 46th Brigade ran out of ammunition and food, he kindly and gratuitously sent a truckload full of weapons, ammunition, food, medicine and other military supplies, and the troops were replenished in time at the most difficult time, and the 54th Regiment led by you took the initiative to cooperate, my 46th Brigade would probably have to take passive defense here and wait for supplies and reinforcements. ”

When Brigade Commander Kong said this, looking at the Japanese troops who were retreating one after another, he was sullen in his chest that had been suppressed by the little devils in the past six days, and at this time, he was released in front of Lei Yunfeng, and his heart suddenly burst into laughter.

Lei Yunfeng understood Brigade Commander Kong's mood very well, pointed to the Japanese army base camp and said: "Brigade Commander Kong, the Japanese army has begun to organize a rapid retreat, is it to order the troops to launch the most fierce attack, bite the enemy and keep sending the retreating enemy troops to the foot of Gumoling Mountain and then collect troops?" ”

"Huh? Why didn't I see it with my binoculars? Sun Maosheng, chief of staff of the 46th Brigade, said with a telescope.

Brigade Commander Kong also picked up the binoculars and swept towards the Japanese army base camp, what he could see was that the Japanese army base camp was under the powerful artillery fire, and he couldn't see anything clearly under the smoke and flames, not only put down the binoculars and stared at the thundercloud peak under the fire of war with puzzled eyes.
