Yoshio Shinozuka strictly ordered the attack on Cuiping Peak and Tianfeng Ridge, and soon the Japanese troops attacked the two mountains according to the old devil's order.

At this time, the second battalion of the new first regiment, Shen Qun, was guarding Cuiping Peak, and the third battalion of Ma Wenhai was guarding Tianfeng Ridge. Due to the steep terrain of the two mountains, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they are all peaks with an altitude of more than 700 meters.

Condescendingly, the defenders' firepower on the hills, combined with the defenders' firepower on the deep defense of the mountain road between the two mountains, was enough to block the onslaught of the Japanese heavy group.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

The Japanese concentrated the artillery units directly under the wing to cover the infantry attack. The shells of the little devil's Type 92 infantry guns whizzed down the hill, blowing up clouds of smoke and flames.

Under the artillery attack, the defenders on the mountain also quickly counterattacked, and constantly used the strength of the fifth artillery squad left by Li Yunlong to defend the base area to carry out counter-artillery bombardment and fight against the little devils.

"Kill! Kill! For His Majesty the Emperor, for the sake of the Empire, onboard, onboard, rush me! ”

Ichiro Nanata, commander of the 20th Division of the Japanese Army, who was responsible for attacking Cuiping Peak, commanded one of the Japanese wings that accompanied Yoshio Shinozuka to attack the Hengshan base area.

As soon as Nanata Ichiro gave an order, more than 2,000 Japanese troops carried 38-type rifles and advanced to attack the mountain under the cover of light and heavy machine gun fire.

The terrain of Cuiping Peak is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The road to the hill was very difficult, and the defenders were garrisoned by the 5th Artillery Squad on the hill.

Under the command of Hao Shengjie, the leader of the fifth artillery squad, the artillery concentrated on the condescending artillery fire to attack the little devil troops attacking the mountain, and the Japanese troops who bombed suffered heavy casualties.

In addition, attacking from the foot of the mountain to the mountain, there are barbed wire fortifications deployed by the defenders along the way, and the large trees on the mountain are enough to easily defend it.

However, the Japanese army attacked Cuiping Peak from the back, and encountered barbed wire obstacles along the way, coupled with the condescending firepower of the defenders, the little devil's attack on the mountain could only become a target for the defenders' firepower.

"Tutu Tu Tu !! Tu

According to Shen Qun's headquarters of the second battalion of the new 1st Regiment guarding Cuiping Peak, at this time he had more than 700 defenders resting and on standby, plus more than 1,000 recruits from the Shanbei Reserve, which was a strength of more than 1,700 people.

Under the fire of dozens of light and heavy machine guns, the Japanese wing belonging to the 40th Brigade of the 20th Division of the Japanese Army attacking Cuiping Peak was inflicted heavy casualties.

The Japanese soldiers braved the heavy snow and flew to the mountains to attack, and the snow was deep along the way, and it was not easy to attack from the back. And it is easy to be hit by the fire of the defenders, which is simply miserable.

"Haha, give me a hard shot, light and heavy machine guns, don't skimp on bullets, hit hard! We must kill a large number of little devils, the regimental commander is ready, just waiting for us! Kill! On Cuiping Peak Mountain, Shen Qun, the commander of the second battalion of the new first regiment, laughed at this time, looked down the mountain from the bunker, and then waved his hand with a sneer, and beckoned a battalion staff officer beside him to order.

The battalion headquarters staff officer Ying He said: "Yes, battalion commander, the brothers have been gearing up for a long time and are ready to kill the little devil!" Haha, this time the little devil took the initiative to attack Cuiping Peak, which was simply asking for his own death. We have built a large number of low earthen fortifications on the mountain, and the firepower is sufficient, and the little devils can only become the target of our firepower when they attack the hill on their backs. ”。

Subsequently, the staff officer of the battalion headquarters directly waved the field phone and stopped the defenders of each company and platoon from attacking the Japanese troops attacking the mountain with their firepower in accordance with the designated counterattack plan.

Since Cuiping Peak was a stronghold of the new regiment for a long time, the mountain peak was lined with trees, and the road to the top of the mountain was difficult to walk, and there were trenches dug by the defenders along the way. Moreover, in front of the trenches along the way, there are layers of barbed wire, forming a series of fortifications.

At this time, behind a hidden hillside hundreds of meters at the foot of Cuiping Peak, the attack of the Japanese army attacking the mountain was covertly observed, and the commander of the 20th Division, Nanada Ichiro, frowned.

"Bagaya Road, the 40th Infantry Wing of the 1st Brigade Regiment was ordered to strengthen the offensive, haven't you had enough to eat? Bagaya Road, a bunch of waste! Nanata Ichiro was furious and shouted directly to a Japanese staff officer on the side.

The Japanese staff officer suddenly said: "Yes, Your Excellency the division commander!" He immediately sent a herald to convey Nanataichiro's order.

At this time, the chief of staff of the division, Nakai Shotaro, who was standing beside Nanata Ichiro, said in a low voice: "Your Excellency, the division commander, although the defensive strength of the new regiment of Cuiping Peak seems to be only about a thousand people. However, judging from the battle situation of Cuiping Peak and the enemy fortifications we have observed, the opponent's defense in Cuiping Peak is ready. We are currently attacking the mountains, and we are on the back attack. Although artillery units directly under the brigade and regiment carried out fire strikes and cover, the 1st Infantry Wing, which attacked the mountain, also suffered heavy casualties. ”。

"Nakai-kun, I understand what you mean! But now is not the time for us to preserve the strength of the Imperial Army. As long as we take Cuiping Peak and Tianfeng Ridge, we will remove the threat of a new regiment of defenders on the two mountains, and the main force of the army will be able to pass through the mountain road between the two mountains and take Hutou Mountain directly. This is already a difficult ride, and it is impossible for His Excellency the Commander to agree to our suspension of the offensive! Needless to say, order all troops to attack step by step according to the plan, no matter how many men and horses are lost, you must capture Cuiping Peak for me! ”

After a pause, Nanata Ichiro said in a low and solemn voice: "What's more, even if we lose the two infantry wings of the 40th Brigade, we still have some troops directly under the 39th Brigade and Division in Mozhou, Huguan, and Gaoping in the southeast of Jin Province. Even if the two infantry wings of the 40th Brigade were killed and wounded, our 20th Division had not yet been completely destroyed. So do what you command! Nakai-kun! ”。

"Haiyi, Your Excellency the Division Commander, I understand my humble duties!"

Nanata Ichiro made it clear so nakedly, and at this time, Nakai Shotaro, who wanted to persuade Nanata Ichiro to preserve his strength, also paused and said in a low voice, going out to send someone to convey the old devil's order and strengthen the offensive.

It's just that no matter how strictly Nanata Ichiro ordered the Japanese troops under his command to storm Cuiping Peak, but Cuiping Peak was after all a stronghold where the new regiment occupied Heng Mountain, opened up a base area, and built a large number of fortifications on the mountain. The defenders deployed dozens of heavy machine guns layer by layer, and the firepower was very appropriately deployed to carry out fierce fire strafing at the Japanese troops attacking down the mountain.

The little devil's soldiers were attacking from the back, and the heavy snow covered the mountain peaks, and the snow along the way was deep, so that the little devil soldiers attacking the mountain stepped on the thick snow to attack the mountain, which was a very bitter thing in itself.

Therefore, more than 2,000 Japanese troops under the command of Nanata Ichiro, who attacked Cuiping Peak, stormed Cuiping Peak for half an hour, and did not seize the defensive blocking trench built by the defenders on the mountainside of Cuiping Peak. On the contrary, under the fire counterattack of Shen Qun's headquarters of the second battalion of the defenders, he was beaten to the point of crying father and mother, and at least about four or five hundred people were killed or wounded.
