Chapter 174: Breaking through to the death
The corners of Katayama Riichiro's mouth twitched, and he was really a little speechless.
There are nearly 6,000 men and horses in the two divisions, and once they are really eaten by Li Yunlong's troops in Weijiatun, it is inevitable that his 5th Brigade will be wiped out.
"Bagaya Road, two pieces of waste! Without any vigilance, he was blocked in Weijiatun by others, and in the process of chasing, he didn't send a reconnaissance team into Weijiatun to investigate first! A bunch of rubbish! Ichiro Katayama scolded angrily.
Kenjiro Saito smiled bitterly at this time: "Brigade commander, the most important thing now is to rescue the 6th Wing and the 68th Wing. Once their entire army is annihilated in Weijiatun, the last reserve force we have under control is only more than 2,000 people, and it will be useless at that time. Li Yunlong ambushed and ate the wings of Takeo Sato and Jiro Ueno in Weijiatun, then our brigade headquarters will be in danger next. Your Excellency, Brigade Commander!.
"Order the reserve directly under the brigade, give me the support to meet the two troops to highlight Weijiatun, hurry up!"
Riichiro Katayama didn't have time to scold Takeo Sato and Jiro Ueno anymore at this time, and he angrily shouted at Kenjiro Saito.
Kenjiro Saito paused heavily and said, "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, obey your orders!" ”。
Subsequently, Saito Kenjiro hurriedly sent people to command more than 2,000 Japanese troops directly under the brigade and regiment, and desperately attacked and advanced towards Weijiatun.
"Boom, boom! Boom Boom! ”
Suddenly, the artillery fire continued to fall on the ranks of the reserve directly under the 5th Brigade Regiment that was advancing towards Weijiatun, and the devils who were bombed suffered heavy casualties.
"Oh no, Your Excellency Brigade Commander, the reinforcements have been hit by enemy artillery fire and have suffered heavy casualties! The attack is moving very slowly! The last artillery brigade directly under the brigade has already counterattacked, but it is difficult to suppress the enemy's artillery fire! In addition, Li Yunlong sent a blocking force south of Weijiatun to block the attack of our reinforcements! ”
When Kenjiro Saito arrived, Li Yunlong had actually sent troops to block more than 500 meters in front of the entrance south of Weijiatun, and he was stunned to block the attack of their reinforcements.
"Bagaya Road, I saw it!"
The corners of Katayama Riichiro's mouth twitched, and in the sight of the telescope, Katayama Riichiro had already seen that the reinforcements were receiving the attack of the two Japanese troops to break through, but they were fiercely blocked by the other side, and they could not go further.
Seeing that the distance was already insufficient, and the entrance to the south of Weijiatun and entering Tunzi was already less than five or six hundred meters, he was stunned that he could not break through the blocking force of the new regiment.
"There is no way, order reinforcements to continue the attack and advance, you must give me a punch, and then the 6th Infantry Wing and the 68th Infantry Wing that are trapped in Weijiatun will fight their way out of the encirclement. Otherwise, our 5th Brigade will be a joke among the divisions! Hurry up and drop! ”
Riichiro Katayama roared and ordered, there was no other way at this time.
If they don't get in, the 6th Infantry Wing and the 68th Infantry Wing will be in a situation of total annihilation.
Once the 6th Infantry Wing and the 68th Infantry Wing were completely annihilated in Weijiatun, the reserve force of more than 2,000 people that Riichiro Katayama finally mastered would not have the strength to pursue Li Yunlong's main force.
However, once the 6th Infantry Wing and the 68th Infantry Wing were all wiped out in Weijiatun, Riichiro Katayama knew that the last troops he mastered would also be on the list of prey for Li Yunlong's main force.
After all, at that time, there were only more than two thousand people left in the remnants of the 5th Brigade, how could it be a reflexive blow of the new elite troops of the first regiment of six or seven thousand people?
"Hai, Your Excellency Brigade Commander, do as you are told."
Kenjiro Saito was also helpless, and at this time he had to continue to attack and advance.
You must know that Li Yunlong actually sent at least 1,500 troops to establish a blocking position south of the entrance to Weijiatun to block the reinforcements sent by Riichiro Katayama.
It shows that at this time, the battle in Weijiatun was already in unfolding or fierce progress.
Kenjiro Saito and Riichiro Katayama had already heard the sound of shouting and gunfire coming from the violent Weijiatun, which was very intense.
The intensity of the battle can be seen, just when Saito Kenjiro reported to Riichiro Katayama for the second time that the reinforcements were blocked by the new regiment blocking troops, the commander of the 68th Infantry Wing, who was blocked in Weijiatun, again sent an urgent telegram to Saito Kenjiro asking the brigade to quickly send reinforcements.
It is conceivable that the battle in Weijiatun has been very fierce. The situation of the 6th Infantry Wing and the 68th Infantry Wing was not optimistic, and it was no longer allowed Riichiro Katayama and Kenjiro Saito to worry about the casualties and losses of the last reserve in their hands.
At this time, the battle of Weijiatun was just as Riichiro Katayama and Kenjiro Saito had imagined, and the battle situation was very unfavorable in the face of the two devil infantry wings.
"Boom, boom!!"
The sound of gunfire completely exploded in the small Weijiatun, and it was very violent.
Weijiatun is just a low-lying place surrounded by mountains in the north of the main peak of Baicha Mountain, and there are not many buildings in the tunzhong.
What's more, the commanding heights of the mountains around Weijiatun are all in the hands of the various departments of the new regiment, and the condescending firepower strikes have already been in several waves, knocking out many devil soldiers.
"Ueno-kun, I'm afraid it won't work. If you don't break through again, you and I will have to explain here and go to see the great god of heavenly recruitment. What to do? Our 6th Infantry Wing has already suffered all casualties, and I am afraid that there is not much strength left to break out. It's up to you with the 68th Infantry Wing. ”
In Weijiatun, in a residential building, Takeo Sato, who was holding his head to avoid a shell exploding at close range, found the commander of the 68th Infantry Wing, Jiro Ueno, and said loudly.
At this time, Jiro Ueno was also bombarded by a new group of condescending artillery bombardments, and he was embarrassed and disgraced.
The good devil military uniform is already in tatters after being bombed.
"My 68th Infantry Wing also suffered heavy casualties, and a few minutes ago I sent people to count the casualties of various units, and now there are less than 2,000 people left in my 68th Wing."
Jiro Ueno was also bitter, and Li Yunlong's new ambush firepower was too strong. Moreover, the commanding heights of the mountains around Weijiatun have all fallen into the hands of Li Yunlong's subordinates.
The opponent is condescending, occupies a geographical advantage, and the opponent's firepower is not as weak as the 6th Wing and the 68th Infantry Wing, and is slightly stronger.
This came and went, and the two Japanese infantry wings in Weijiatun, which were downwind, suffered heavy casualties under several waves of firepower.
"No matter what, we must break out of Weijiatun, otherwise you and I will be wiped out. At present, there is a loud gunfire at the entrance south of Weijiatun, and it is estimated that the brigade commander has received our urgent call for help and is sending troops to reinforce it! We concentrated our forces to fight our way out of the encirclement and break through to the south! ”
Takeo Sato said in a condensed voice, at this time there is no way out. must break through to the death, otherwise it will only be a dead end if it is still in Weijiatun.
