Chapter 471: Stabilizing the Battle Situation in Beicheng (1)

Less than ten minutes later, the 4th Division of the Devils, the 8th Wing Headquarters, received a telegram asking for help from the front-line combat units.

The captain of the Devil's Wing, Nakajima Sandwich, was immediately panicked when he learned that the front-line troops had encountered the security regiment.

"Baga Ya Road, no wonder the front-line troops were thwarted in their continuous attacks in Xiaoshi Village, it turned out that the hateful security regiment had joined the battle!"

The other devil officers in the wing headquarters also had very surprised expressions when they heard the security group.

There is a saying in the entire Japanese army in North China: It is better to see the living Yama than to meet the security regiment, which is invincible!

Nakajima Sandwich has the shrewd mind of a businessman, and he has self-knowledge, even if all the brigades of the 8th Wing are reinforced, he will definitely not be the opponent of the security group.

After thinking quickly for a while, Nakajima Sandwich hurriedly ordered the artillery to suppress and cover the withdrawal of the front-line troops.

"Tom !!"

All the guns of the devil's heavy artillery position were fired together.

The shells streaked across the night sky and flew with tail flames to the position of the third battalion of the security regiment, seven or eight kilometers away.

In the blink of an eye, a rain of shells poured around the position of the third battalion of the security regiment.

Shells exploded all around the third battalion, and many of the shells completely deviated, reaching a few hundred meters away from the position of the third battalion.

The artillery shelling of the devils was very hasty, and there was no tracer bullet guidance from the front-line troops, so the hit rate of these flying shells was very limited.

When the commander of the third battalion, Meng Dazhu, saw the little devil's heavy artillery unit firing, he immediately gave orders to each company to stop firing......

While the artillery was busy shelling in the distance of the devil, in the corner of the stone mountain, an artillery platoon of the third battalion set up a mortar position on the mountain.

At this time, the devil artillery on the bank of the river was firing, and the artillery position was exposed, which was simply a live target.

"Artillery squads aiming, preparing, reloading!!"

More than a dozen 90-mm mortars were aimed at the Devil's heavy artillery position, and then the ammunition man picked up the shells and put them into the barrels of the mortars.

"Tom !!"

Mortars continued to fire shells, one after another flying out of the rocky mountains and slamming into the other side of the river.

Stone Hill is high and condescending, only a few kilometers from the other side of the river, and the range of mortar fire can completely cover the Devil's heavy artillery position.

A few seconds later, a large field of artillery shells swept across the river and landed accurately on the artillery positions of the devils.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

A violent explosion spread from the devil's artillery position, and the fire of the explosion was reflected on the surface of the river.

The shells blew up a row of craters, and mud and shrapnel splattered everywhere.

The dozens of devil artillerymen on the position did not even have any time to react, and their limbs were separated on the spot, and one of them was the commander of the devil artillery.

"Ahh......h

Shrapnel from the shells flew everywhere, and all the little devils within a dozen meters around them could not escape death.

Suddenly, the devil artillery position was under fire, and the devil artillery was in a mess, holding their heads to dodge, or lying on the ground.

"Artillery fire is coming, hide, hide quickly!!"

It was not only anti-personnel shells that flew in, but also some of the shells that were incendiary.

Incendiary bombs fell to the ground, burning the scorched earth of the ground, and blazing flames spread everywhere.

Some unlucky little devils were accidentally contaminated with flames, rolling on the ground in pain, and one by one the burned skin and flesh were opened.

"Run, Run!!"

The terrified shouts of the devil soldiers sounded on the battlefield, and there was a large number of screams and wails.

The remaining devil artillery, who didn't even bother to carry and transfer the artillery on the position, quickly got up and desperately escaped from the explosion zone.

Mortar shells flew in waves, and in less than five minutes, the artillery of the security regiment poured all the shells brought by the artillery into the devil artillery position.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

In the blink of an eye, the devil's artillery position became a sea of fire.

More than a dozen artillery pieces on the position were blown apart, and the ground was littered with the corpses of devils and fragments of artillery parts.

The artillery position of the devil was killed, and the artillery platoon of the third battalion of the security regiment immediately shifted its position.

"Withdraw, !! quickly"

The artillerymen of the mortar platoon, carrying the mortars, quickly evacuated the stone mountain......

On the bank of the river, the headquarters of the 8th Wing of the Devils.

Several devil officers and soldiers hurriedly ran into the wing headquarters to report.

"Report to the Wing Commander, our artillery positions have been attacked by the Chinese soldiers, and all our long-range artillery has been destroyed!"

"Report to the Wing Commander, our artillery suffered heavy casualties, and the artillery captain Tokugawa Shozo Yu was broken!"

"Report to the Wing Commander, the front-line troops sent another telegram asking for reinforcements, requesting reinforcements to relieve the siege......"

Nakajima Sandwich didn't wait for his subordinates to finish reporting, and immediately gritted his teeth fiercely and became furious.

"Bagaya Road, my artillery position, must have been destroyed by the security regiment, damn the security regiment!"

Nakajima Sandwich was furious, grabbing his subordinates by the collars and roaring.

Although the officers of the 8th Wing hated the security regiment, they were even more afraid of the combat effectiveness of the security regiment, and no devil officer dared to volunteer to reinforce and relieve the siege.

After a while, the devil's deputy wing commander asked, "Your Excellency, what about the front-line troops?" Immediate reinforcements? ”

"Yaga, idiot!"

Nakajima Sandwich scolded a few times, and then, he angrily asked the deputy wing: "Our opponent is the security regiment, do you dare to go to reinforcements?" ”

Nakajima Sandwich shook his head when he saw the deputy wing, and asked the other officers: "And you, who is not afraid of death and dares to go for reinforcements?" ”

"Your Excellency, no, no, no, we don't want to kill ourselves......"

The devil officers waved their hands and subconsciously stepped back.

The devils of the 4th Division have always been very desperate for their lives, and all the commanders are shrewd, willing to do things to make money, and to fight and find death, whoever likes to go will go, anyway, they don't want to look for death.

If it weren't for the 4th Division being forced to fight this battle from above, otherwise, the 8th Wing would definitely not be willing to be cannon fodder.

Obviously, Wing Commander Nakajima Sandwich has no intention of increasing troops to break the siege, and when encountering a strong enemy like the security regiment, no matter how many troops are reinforced, it will be a sheep's mouth.

Nakajima Sandwich ordered the signal troops: "Send a telegram to the front-line troops, the wing has no reinforcements to send, and order the front-line troops to organize a breakthrough at all costs......"

"Hayi, Wing Captain!"

The Devil Signal Corps immediately sent an urgent telegram back to the front-line troops.

Nakajima Sandwich did not increase his troops, and let the front-line troops break out on their own, in fact, such an approach is a wise choice.

In accordance with Li Hong's operational instructions, the Third Battalion of the Security Regiment adopted the tactic of "encircling and destroying and sending reinforcements." If the enemy reinforces the troops, the Third Battalion of the Security Regiment can draw some troops to block the enemy's reinforcements.

In this way, the enemy will not only not be able to relieve the siege, but will also lose heavy reinforcements.

Subsequently, Nakajima Sandwich ordered the devil troops guarding the second line of defense to take the initiative to give up their positions and shrink their forces to hold the forward positions.
