"Bang bang bang!" The cannonballs continued to crack and knock, and then they smashed into Itagaki Seishiro's makeshift camp with a long tail flame, and the shells exploded violently, and dazzling flames rose into the sky.

The artillery of Wang Chengzhu's command post had been shelling a wide range for at least five minutes, and countless shells had fallen on the temporary camp of Itagaki Seishiro's headquarters, and many Japanese soldiers fled for their lives in a hurry. However, the speed of escape could not compare to the whistling shells, and one by one the shells exploded, scattering the fragments of the shells, tearing apart the Japanese soldiers who were hit, and then a cloud of blood mist drifted around.

"Baga Ya Road! Eight Ga Ya Road! Eight Ga Ya Road! Damn a new mess! ”

After hiding from the gate where the military tent was located under the protection of several Japanese guards, and was not threatened by the shells at close range for the time being, Seishiro Itagaki came back to his senses and cursed.

At this time, a Japanese staff officer rushed from one side to Seishiro's side in a hurry from the smoke of gunpowder in the rain of shells, squatted down and made an urgent report: "Your Excellency Division Commander, the front-line observation detachment has discovered that the infantry of the defending army of China at the mouth of the Jinlong Gorge Valley has been dispatched. And the cavalry, now start gathering and slaughter my camp! ”。

"Nani? Order the outpost to withstand. Hurry up, order Yamazaki Volley and Tengkawa Kurusuke, organize troops to build a blocking line, and be sure to stop the opponent's cavalry! The shelling of the Chinese army ended quickly, and the divisions quickly dripped, ready to counterattack! Stop the new group's attack! ”

Itagaki Seishiro roared angrily to order, and at this time, the old devil also knew that the opponent's large-scale bombardment was preparing to cover the infantry attack! Baga, does Li Yunlong want to fight a surprise attack on my Seishiro Itagaki? It's ridiculous!

The Japanese staff officer who rushed to report the situation paused and said, "Understand, Your Excellency the division commander!" Ignoring the threat of explosions around at this time, he ran to the side and conveyed the old devil's order to Yamazaki Volley and Tengkawa Kurasuke.

At this time, Itagaki Seishiro was lying on the side of a depression and constantly giving orders, organizing all units of the Japanese army to prepare for a counterattack.

It's just that at this time, Wang Chengzhu and the cavalry company and the infantry and artillery of the infantry battalions coordinated, and the artillery and cavalry coordination were already very familiar. The cavalry company Sun Desheng commanded the cavalry to take the lead in attacking, and when it was less than 50 meters in front of the camp of Itagaki Seishiro's headquarters, Wang Chengzhu commanded the artillery to bombard all parts of the opponent's camp and did not stop, and the artillery fire was still very fierce.

"Boom, boom, boom!!" The shells rained down and exploded, and Seishiro Itagaki's camp was full of Japanese soldiers running around in a hurry to avoid the shelling.

The commander of the 21st Wing of the 41st Brigade of the Little Devil Yamazaki and the commander of the 42nd Wing, Tenkawa Kurasuke, had already returned to their respective units within a few minutes after the shelling, and the Japanese soldiers at the command post headquarters were assembled and ready to counterattack. However, the new mass of artillery shells that fell from the sky completely shattered the Japanese army's assembly, and the artillery fire did not stop until Wang Chengzhu's artillery fire stopped bombing, and only when it was found that Sun Desheng's cavalry company had been killed more than 50 meters in front of the camp, the artillery fire stopped.

At this time, hundreds of cavalry companies had already galloped into the camp of the 21st Brigade of the Japanese Army, and the Japanese soldiers in the woods gathered in a hurry to counterattack. However, the small group of Japanese infantry was crushed by Sun Desheng's cavalry, and was hastily routed by the cavalry sabers of the new regiment.

Immediately after, the second and third battalions of the new regiment, which had already accumulated strength to charge, rushed out of the mouth of the Jinlong Gorge like a tide, and charged behind Sun Desheng's cavalry.

For this counterattack, Li Yunlong specially mobilized a large number of light machine guns, submachine guns, shell guns, and other rapid weapons at close range from various units to equip the two battalions of attacking troops, so as to facilitate the killing of the Japanese army's vital forces at close range.

"Kill! Brothers, kill the devil! Rush me! ”

Shen Qun, the commander of the second battalion, excitedly spread his feet and charged towards the headquarters of the 21st Brigade of the Japanese Army, which was hidden and encamped in the woods five or six hundred meters in front of the mouth of the canyon.

On the one hand, the three battalions of Ma Wenhai's subordinates, who were charging together, were not to be outdone, and the soldiers spread their feet and charged violently, killing the temporary camp of the Japanese army.

The two battalions of sorties, at least more than a thousand people, plus hundreds of cavalry, although not much, were enough to rush in, and the explosion killed Itagaki Seishiro's department, which had fallen into chaos at this time.

Sure enough, Wang Chengzhu and the cavalry company, the infantry of the two battalions cooperated with each other, and the tactics of infantry and artillery coordination, the Japanese army under the command of Itagaki Seishiro, who reached directly, could not gather a large number of elite Japanese soldiers to build a blocking position, and was broken through.

"Tutu, tusk, tusk!" Storming into the temporary battalion of the 21st Brigade, the fighters of the 2nd and 3rd Battalions, armed with submachine guns and Czech light machine guns, gathered to charge and cover the fighters with rifles in the rear.

With this hand, some of the Japanese troops who had already gathered a small elite force were scattered at once.

The Japanese troops who were losing and retreating were unable to withstand the onslaught of two battalions.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, I can't stand it, the opponent's firepower is too fierce! Its cavalry was already less than 100 meters away from the headquarters, and the infantry in front could not withstand it. The opponent concentrated a large number of light machine guns and submachine guns, and the firepower was too strong! ”

In less than five minutes of close infantry fighting, the image of the rout of the Japanese army had already appeared, and some Japanese soldiers hurried to Itagaki Seishiro's side and reported urgently.

"Bagaya Road, I saw it! Damn it! The 42nd Wing was ordered to organize an infantry brigade to withstand the onslaught of the opponent, and the rest of the troops organized stragglers and large forces to retreat ten miles to temporarily stabilize their positions. The terrain here is flat, which is not conducive to us holding on to help! Hurry up and drop! ”

Itagaki Seishiro looked around and knew that the battle situation was not in his favor. The terrain in the woods was flat, and although there were trees blocking some of the opponent's cavalry from rushing in, the opponent's infantry had already entered the area, and it was obviously premeditated, and the fire of small arms led the charge, so that most of the Japanese soldiers armed with Type 38 rifles were crushed by the opponent's rapid fire vanguard even if they were assembled.

Combining various factors, in an instant, Seishiro Itagaki ordered a retreat of ten miles, and the terrain after ten miles was rugged. It can block the impact of Sun Desheng's cavalry, and the terrain is rugged, which is conducive to the Japanese infantry to block the attack.

"Haiyi, Your Excellency the Division Commander!" The Japanese herald replied with a heavy pause, and then hurried away to convey the old devil's order.

At this time, the rout of the Japanese army had already appeared, and there were constantly Japanese soldiers who did not even listen to their commanders and ran to the rear.

At this time, the second and third battalions of the new regiment took advantage of the onslaught to kill the corpses of the devils in the Japanese battalion, and the queen retreated.

"Bagaya Road, resist, the second brigade, resist, cover the retreat of the large army for ten miles! Resist, heavy machine guns, heavy machine guns, on! "The commander of the 21st Brigade and the 42nd Wing, Tengkawa Kurasuke Osa, received the order of Seishiro Itagaki to directly supervise and lead 30 soldiers of the Japanese army to kill more than a dozen Japanese soldiers who fled in a hurry, and finally stabilized his position, and then personally ordered the headquarters of the 2nd Infantry Brigade to stay behind the palace to block the charge of the two battalions of the new 1st Regiment.
