Chapter 399: If the reinforcements don't arrive, it's so helpless
Behind the Xiaogushan Mountain, which is higher than the main position of the Xiaogushan protruding mountain, on a mountain with an altitude of more than 500 meters, Haruki Fujimoto, who is condescendingly observing the battle situation, has a grim expression.
"Report to Your Excellency General, the forward position has sent someone to report, and the Independent Brigade has launched an attack on the three hilltop positions in Xiaogushan at the same time!"
Ryuichi Suzuki reported the latest situation to Haruki Fujimoto: "Among them, on the left flank and on the right flank, it was observed that a regiment of the independent brigade and part of the recruits were jointly attacking. The main force of the middle attack was the fourth regiment of the independent brigade and the headquarters of the independent regiment, with a strength of about 4,000 people! On both sides, there are about four or five thousand people! ”。
"The independent brigade attacked at the same time, regardless of priority and priority, forcibly attacked the mountain, and the battle was fierce. Although the warriors of the imperial army fought to the death, the artillery fire of the independent brigade was extended and suppressed, and the infantry and artillery coordination of the independent brigade was very strong. Our soldiers suffered heavy casualties from the bombing. I'm afraid, I'm afraid!! ”
Haruki Fujimoto waved his hand and suppressed what Ryuichi Suzuki was about to say, of course he knew what the latter words meant, "Needless to say, we still have about 5,000 people and horses to stick to Xiaogushan." It's still okay to block each other for two or three hours! When the time comes, His Excellency General Tada will not sit idly by and watch us be annihilated! ”
Sure enough, without waiting for Suzuki Ryu to speak, a devil signal soldier came urgently, and took the message that had just been translated and reported to Fujimoto Haruki: "Report to the general, the front army headquarters is calling!" ”。
Haruki Fujimoto hurriedly took a look, and finished reading it in less than half a minute, and then his expression relaxed, "Your Excellency the General has ordered the twenty transport planes of the 12th Air Brigade of the Imperial Air Force stationed at Nanyuan Airport to take off immediately, load a large amount of grain, grass, ammunition and supplies, and prepare to be airdropped to us!" We need to hold out for two hours! ”
Suzuki Ryuichi also finished reading it later, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Your Excellency General, you must announce this news to all the soldiers of the Imperial Army!" In order to encourage all the soldiers of the Imperial Army to fight bravely and persist in fighting. ”。
"Yo Xi, that's nature!"
Haruki Fujimoto nodded and said.
Soon, the devil soldiers who learned that there were airdrop supplies, one by one, were like a rainbow, and they blocked the onslaught of the independent brigade at the same time.
Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, who were observing the battle situation, saw this and quipped: "The old devil Haruki Fujimoto really has two brushes, and he actually inspires his fighting spirit, this is to the death!" ”。
"It's not that you kid is too cruel to the devil, the previous Jingguan or something, all frightened the little devil." Zhao Gang said with a smile.
Li Yunlong shrugged his shoulders and said, "Who would have thought that the devil would be so cruel? I can only give the little devil a shock. Otherwise, these devils who invaded us would not be unable to remember the pain. But looking at the current situation, the devil is going to stubbornly defend it. This won't work! We don't have much time, we must hurry up and eat the remnants of the devils commanded by Haruki Fujimoto, and then the whole army retreats to the Hengshan base area. Otherwise, it is really possible that the devil's reinforcements will come from all directions, and then the battle will be a stalemate, and it will be troublesome. ”。
"Not bad! Then order the troops to intensify the offensive! ”
Zhao Gang bowed.
Li Yunlong immediately waved his hand to the staff officer on the side and said: "Order, the artillery battalion concentrates all the artillery fire, suppresses the devil's machine gun fire point, and there is a possible artillery position!" Concentrate all the light and heavy machine guns and submachine guns in the troops and put them in the first-line attack positions. Tell everyone that in about half an hour, take the position of Xiaogushan and completely annihilate the remnants of the Fujimoto detachment. ”。
"Yes, Brigadier General!" The staff officer of the brigade headquarters left in response.
Soon, the regiments of the Independent Brigade, which was in the midst of the onslaught, concentrated the submachine guns and light and heavy machine guns at the bottom of the box and deployed them on the front line of the attack.
In addition, Wang Chengzhu commanded the artillery battalion to concentrate all the artillery and constantly suppress the devil machine gun fire point in the hilltop position. There were also various makeshift bunker fortifications, and the bombed hilltop positions were full of fire, and shells rained down like raindrops.
"Boom, boom, boom!!"
"Da Da Da !!!"
The cannonballs rained down and the bullets whizzed down the hill, quickly suppressing the devil soldiers who were inspired at all.
Taking advantage of the cover of their own heavy artillery fire, the regiments of the Independent Brigade attacked fiercely according to the plan. The infantry artillery is very familiar with the fighting, and the devils who are guarding the hill in the remnants of the devil detachment are very frightened.
Unexpectedly, the infantry and artillery coordination tactics of the independent brigade have been fully played.
"Eight Tooth Road! Order the troops, hold on, and send the Overseer to the war! "Seeing that the main position of Xiaogushan was stormed by the troops of the independent brigade of two regiments, it had already been stormed up the mountain.
Haruki Fujimoto gritted his teeth angrily, shouted directly at Ryuichi Suzuki, and sent the three hundred people of the overseer team to the main position.
"Supervise the battle team, dare to retreat, there is no forgiveness! The Imperial soldiers on the battlefield were gone, and the overseers continued to hold their positions until the last man was killed! ”
When Suzuki Ryu saw that Haruki Fujimoto was already a little crazy, he paused heavily and said, "Hai, General!" General, I personally command the Overseer to go up! ”。
"Well, Suzuki-kun, you are worthy of being a soldier of the Empire. I will give you another two hundred reserve soldiers, a full five hundred, to supervise the battle for me, and hold the main position of the protruding Xiaogu Mountain. Once the main position is lost, the defenders of the mountains on both flanks will not be able to protect at any time, and the morale of the army will be weakened! Please, Suzuki-kun. Fujimoto Haruki didn't expect Suzuki Ryuichi to ask for a battle overseer, and he was a little moved to hold Suzuki Ryuichi's hands and said fiercely.
Ryuichi Suzuki knew that this was the last time he would see Haruki Fujimoto, but if he could come back alive, it would be another story.
"Please rest assured, General! Humble! Ryuichi Suzuki didn't say much nonsense, and left after saluting heavily.
After watching Ryuichi Suzuki leave with the three hundred warlords and two hundred reserve devil soldiers, Haruki Fujimoto picked up the binoculars and watched the fierce battle on the three hilltop positions in front of him.
It has to be said that at this time, Fujimoto Haruki was already hopeless about the reinforcements of the Japanese army everywhere, although a few minutes ago, the signal corps reported to him that the reinforcements composed of 20,000 imperial troops and Japanese troops gathered from Taiyuan to the north had been killed to the west of Pingxing Pass.
However, in the face of the stubborn resistance of the two battalions of the 1st Battalion and the 2nd Battalion of the 3rd Regiment of the Independent Brigade that remained at the Ping-type Guanxiguan position, and the more than 18,000 Imperial Allied troops who were driven by the 2,000-Japanese army were stunned to attack the blocking positions of the 2 battalions of the 3rd Regiment of the Ping-type Guanxiguan Independent Brigade, and they were stunned and could not take it.
It was unable to break through the Ping-type Guanxi Pass blocking position for a long time, but the Imperial Allied Army had more than 18,000 horses, and now it has lost more than 3,000 horses.
Although 2,000 of them were also reinforcements, the devil soldiers were precious, and they were only used as a team to supervise the war, carrying more than 18,000 cannon fodder from the Imperial Allied Army to attack and advance.
It's just that the two battalions of the Third Regiment of the Independent Brigade, which had already occupied the narrow terrain of Pingxingguan, although there were only more than 1,000 horses, still easily held the Pingxingguanxi Pass position!
Haruki Fujimoto received a telegram from the reinforcements, but just muttered to himself: "If the reinforcements don't arrive, what can I do?" ”。
