The position of the Xiaogushan salient, according to which the Japanese army had a strength of 2,000 men.

However, due to the protrusion of the hill of Xiaogu Mountain, the Japanese army encountered a fierce attack by the 4th Regiment of the Independent Brigade and the Independent Regiment.

On the battlefield, the Japanese army was bombed and cried for their fathers and mothers, and the devils who were defending the main position were already bombed by the artillery fire of the independent brigade at this time, and the positions were all shattered, and there were heavy casualties!

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

The fierce artillery fire covered the three hilltop positions of Xiaogu Mountain, and the devils in the direction of the two wings were already in distress at this time!

Ryuichi Suzuki hurriedly led five hundred reserves up to reinforce the devils in the position of the Xiaogushan salient!

"Sir, why are you here? Go down! "According to the head of the main position of Xiaogu Mountain, it is the Japanese army Shao Saya Tojiro, but this old devil is also covered in blood, but he is in good spirits, it seems that the blood of the devil soldiers splashed on his body.

Ryuichi Suzuki also saw it, but he didn't care about it, and asked anxiously, "How is the situation now?" ”。

Yato Jiro pointed around the position, the explosions continued, and said with a wry smile: "Sir, take a look, the artillery fire of the Independent Brigade is very fierce." At least twenty 70 mm guns were violently shelling my main position, which was hastily constructed and could not hold back the fragments of the shells at all! The soldiers of the Imperial Army suffered heavy casualties, and there are less than 1,000 soldiers left in my position who can still move. The rest have already died in battle! ”。

"Yaga! Damn it! ”

Suzuki Ryuichi lay on the edge of the trench, watched the independent brigade attacking up the mountain die in battle, gritted his teeth and said: "I will bring five hundred soldiers to reinforce your department now, and I will stand on the position to fight you." In addition, Your Excellency the General of the Front Army has ordered the 12th Air Brigade of the Imperial Air Corps stationed at Nanyuan Airport in Beiping to carry supplies to us! Three of the 105mm howitzers were also supplied to us by random airlift! We need to hold our ground for two hours. Tell all the soldiers of the Imperial Army that if you stand up to it, there will be hope! ”。

"Yes, sir!"

Yato Jiro nodded heavily, and then grabbed a ghost soldier beside him and roared, "Pass on the words of the chief!" Hold your ground, drip! ”。

"Yes, Shaozuo!" Devil soldiers inform along the trenches.

At this time, the artillery fire of the independent brigade was still bombarding.

When Suzuki Ryu saw that their 20,000 surprise attack army was defeated by a return reinforcement from the Independent Brigade, they suffered heavy losses, and now only 5,000 men and horses remained.

However, the main position of Xiaogu Mountain is less than 1,000, and the devil defenders on the other sides of the mountain are estimated to have suffered heavy casualties! The strength of the independent brigade has already crushed them, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fight!

Sure enough, taking advantage of the interval between the battles, Suzuki Ryuichi sent people to see the situation of the Japanese defenders on both sides of the main position of Xiaogu Mountain, and found that the situation was really not optimistic!

"Report to the Chief of Staff, the situation is not good! The positions of the imperial army on the hills on the left and right flanks that have been bombarded by the artillery fire of the Independent Brigade have changed beyond recognition! On the position, the soldiers of the imperial army were hit by artillery fire, and the soldiers who were killed and wounded abounded! The corpses on the battlefield are all over the field, and the casualties are too great! ”

The ghost soldier who came back bent his waist and found Suzuki Ryuichi who was supervising the battle on the battlefield with a wry smile.

Ryuichi Suzuki said helplessly: "How many soldiers are there on the hilltop positions on both wings?" ”。

"The commander of the left flank reported that they still had eight hundred men, and the casualties were not large. But the commanders of the mountain positions on the right flank reported that they suffered less than seven hundred casualties! "Devil soldier urgent! 8090

Ryuichi Suzuki picked up the binoculars and observed, and sure enough, the Japanese troops in the mountains on the left flank were gradually exhausted, and the devil defenders in the position had begun to counterattack.

"Quick, report to Your Excellency the General, and request that reserves be sent up to reinforce the hilltop position on the left flank! If we do not reinforce the hilltop position on the left flank, I am afraid that it will be lost within half an hour! Just go! "Suzuki Ryuichi knew that at this time, Fujimoto Haruki still had a thousand troops in his hands, and it was used as a reserve.

It is impossible to send reinforcements unless absolutely necessary.

"Hay, Chief of Staff!" The devil soldiers were ordered to leave.

And Suzuki Ryuichi stood on the top of the salient hill of Xiaogu Mountain, supervising the devils to defend to the death, and resisted the attack of the independent brigade.

Soon, the devil soldiers sent back by Ryuichi Suzuki reported to Haruki Fujimoto that the left flank was probably going to be lost within half an hour, and there was no reinforcement to support it!

Haruki Fujimoto stood on the top of the mountain, condescendingly looking at the battle ahead.

Turning his gaze to the hill on the left flank of the main position of Xiaogushan, he saw that the artillery fire of the Independent Brigade was overwhelmingly suppressing the Japanese defenders' positions at the highest point, and the troops under the mountain were very skillfully dispersed, and the three-three system was attacking and advancing.

Little by little, gnaw off the firepower points on the Japanese position, and there are active devil soldiers!

"Damn!"

Haruki Fujimoto also saw with his own eyes the power of the independent brigade's three-three attack tactics, which is simply the best attack formation for infantry tactics!

"Reply to the Chief of Staff, I will send two squadrons of troops to reinforce the left flank later. Tell the chief of staff to supervise the war and resist it! ”

The devil soldier paused heavily and said, "Hai, Your Excellency General!" Immediately, he walked away.

Immediately, Fujimoto Haruki pained the reserve of 1,000 people, and directly transferred two squadrons of 500 Japanese troops to quickly reinforce the left flank mountain, so that the Japanese army's crumbling defense line quickly withstood the onslaught of the independent brigade.

In the temporary field headquarters of the Independent Brigade, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang both saw the devils defending the hilltop position on the left flank, and received reinforcements from the devil's reserves!

"Okay, I've finally beaten out part of Haruki Fujimoto's reserves!" Li Yunlong smiled.

Zhao Gang on the side smiled and said, "Lao Li, how do you know that it is the reserve team of Haruki Fujimoto?" ”。

"That's a good judgment!"

Li Yunlong pointed to the devil defenders on the three hilltop positions of Xiaogu Mountain that were being defended, smiled and said: "Looking at the strength of the Japanese army on the three hills, it is about 4,000 people. And in this way, then there are at least a thousand reserves in the hands of Haruki Fujimoto that have not yet been used! Now that we are about to take the devil position in the left flank mountain, Haruki Fujimoto probably can't sit still. Once the left flank is captured by us, the devils in the mountains of the Xiaogushan salient will inevitably encounter flank fire attacks! Therefore, even if Haruki Fujimoto has no troops, he must draw troops from other mountain positions that can still withstand it to reinforce the hill on his left flank! Otherwise, just wait for a slow death! ”。

"Haruki Fujimoto doesn't have much money now, and now use the reserves to come up, and the remnants of Haruki Fujimoto are not far away!" Zhao Gang laughed and said.

Li Yunlong pointed to the attacking troops and said, "Now that we are concentrating our main force on attacking the mountain and attacking at the same time, even if Fujimoto Haruki sends a reserve force to come up, it will only delay our attack speed!" I look at the current situation, in another half an hour, the remnants of the Japanese army under Haruki Fujimoto will be completely annihilated, there should be no problem! ”。

Zhao Gang reminded Li Yunlong: "The little devil's reinforcements have already hit the Pingxing Guanxi Pass position, and there are only two battalions of the first and second battalions of the third regiment, if you can't stop the enemy's reinforcements, it will be a little troublesome." ”。
