"Nani? The pontoon bridge was blown up? At this time, Itagaki Seishiro had already pushed Yamazaki into the air and climbed up, but in less than a minute, he received a report from the Japanese soldiers in the rear, and said in surprise with an incredible look on his face.

I saw that the Japanese soldiers who came to report the situation hurriedly said, "I don't know where the artillery fire of the Chinese army is coming, and the troops guarding the bridge are in a hurry and cannot deal with it." More than a dozen shells fell into the pontoon bridge and exploded. The pontoon bridge has already been blown up, Your Excellency the Division Commander! ”。

"Bagaya Road, it's not good, our retreat has been cut off! Nakamura Masao, quickly command the troops to attack, and can't let the Shina army attack! Hurry up and drop! Itagaki Seishiro is worthy of being a devil officer with high battlefield acumen, and after only a moment of surprise, he ordered the commander of the 21st Brigade who was ready to go out to command the attack of the Japanese troops before the bombardment came.

Nakamura Masao also realized that the pontoon bridge had been blown up, and his troops had lost and the rear road was cut off. At this time, it is necessary to attack one step ahead of the opponent, attack first, and disrupt Li Yunlong's offensive rhythm.

"Hayi, Your Excellency the Division Commander!"

Nakamura Masao said a word, and immediately hurried out of his brigade headquarters, commanding the headquarters of the 42nd Wing to take over the 42nd Wing, which was unfavorable for the first attack, to launch a fierce attack on the position of Li Yunlong's department.

In less than five minutes after all the pontoon bridges on the Sangqian River behind the devil himself were blown up, Nakamura Masao dispatched the 42nd Wing, a Japanese wing that had not yet suffered serious losses, with a total of more than 3,400 men, to launch a rapid onslaught on Li Yunlong's position in a circle on three sides.

"Target, the position of the new regiment of the Chinese army, two hundred and fifty meters away, prepare, put! Kill! "The 21st Brigade Regiment's artillery brigade captain Saka Kamihei commanded more than 10 Type 92 infantry guns, which were laid out in a line and fiercely bombarded the position of Li Yunlong's troops on the opposite side.

"Bang bang bang!"

The shells of the Type 92 infantry guns shot out from the muzzles, and after the blazing flames flashed in the muzzles for a moment, the shells roared and smashed into the defensive positions of the new regiment.

The whistling shells accurately landed on the positions of the new regiment, especially a batch of barbed wire fences captured from the Japanese warehouses in Datong City, and the barbed wire fortifications formed by the Japanese artillery were mainly bombarded by the Japanese artillery.

After all, the Japanese tanks had been destroyed by Zhang Dabiao's troops with RPGs, so that the Japanese could only use artillery fire to blow up the barbed wire first and remove the obstacles to the infantry attack.

"Hide, quick, retreat into the anti-artillery hole! Hurry up! ”

A few seconds before the Japanese shells fell, Zhang Dabiao and He Yongjie each ordered their soldiers to hide in the anti-artillery holes under the trenches.

Fortunately, most of the soldiers under the command of Zhang Dabiao and He Yongjie were veterans, and when they heard the screaming sound of Japanese artillery shells coming in the sky, they understood that the devil's shells were coming. Although the explosion outside was deafening and earth-shattering, the soldiers who hid in the anti-artillery holes covered their ears and opened their mouths, but there were no casualties.

Only a few unlucky fighters could not dodge in time and were slightly injured by the shells.

At this time, the Japanese artillery fire was raging, and at the foot of the Hengshan Mountain Range with his back to him, in a temporary cave dug behind the slope of the mountain, Li Yunlong couldn't help but complain secretly, and the Japanese army's actions reacted quickly.

In fact, Itagaki Seishiro guessed correctly, after getting the results of Wang Chengzhu's artillery bombardment of the Japanese pontoon bridge on the Sangqian River, Li Yunlong did order Zhang Dabiao's frontal troops to dispatch and fight a counterattack, perhaps he could take advantage of the situation to defeat the Japanese troops who were in turmoil.

Itagari didn't expect Seishiro Itagaki to move so quickly, and he quickly reacted and attacked again.

"Commander, this little devil's artillery fire is so fierce! This is a bloody investment! In the temporary headquarters of the new regiment, the guard Wei Dayong and Monk Wei who were standing next to Li Yunlong said in surprise.

Li Yunlong raised his head and smiled, "Haha, monk, you kid knows!" In fact, it was very simple, the old devil Itagaki Seishiro reacted quickly, and this was to take advantage of the fact that his pontoon bridge had just been blown up by us, and his morale had not completely collapsed. Otherwise, it would be troublesome to wait for most of the Japanese soldiers to know that the pontoon bridge over the Sangqian River had been blown up, that they were already isolated on the south bank of the Sangqian River, and that they could not withdraw to the north bank of the Sangqian River at any time. ”。

"Commander, what do we do now? The devil's artillery fire is too fierce, and the mortars of the artillery team are probably not opponents! ”

Li Yunlong shook his head and said, "When the little devil's artillery fire stops, the devil's infantry will attack!" Made, although it is a pity that there is a chance to counterattack, but it is also a good thing to wait for the devil to take the initiative to attack our well-defended position! I want the little devil to understand that if you want to break the position of labor and capital, don't even think about it! Hahaha! ”

"Commander, you're awesome!" Wei Dayong gave a thumbs up, he deserves to be the head of the regiment, what he said is much more awesome than that of the Jin Suijun and the senior officers of the National Army, at least Wei Dayong likes to stay in the new regiment.

At this time, just two minutes after Li Yunlong and Wei Dayong laughed and talked, the Japanese artillery fire stopped shelling.

Behind the frontal defensive position of the new regiment, in the battalion headquarters of Zhang Dabiao's first battalion, through the observation hole of the bunker where the battalion headquarters was located, Zhang Dabiao took a telescope and looked at the group of cats on the opposite side of the position, attacking with a 38-style rifle, with murderous eyes and a few sneers on the corners of his mouth.

"Order all companies and platoons not to be stingy with the ammunition in their hands, and wait for the devil infantry to get close to the position fifty meters before firing at me. Let the two flanks protrude the positions withstand, and the three companies that dent the middle positions, get ready, the little devil is still a wing onslaught this time! Zhang Dabiao conveyed the order in an orderly manner, and the battalion staff officer behind him hurriedly responded.

"Yes, Battalion Commander!" Then the staff officer of the battalion headquarters directly called and ordered all companies and platoons on the front line to prepare for a counterattack.

The artillery fire stopped bombing, and more than 3,400 Japanese soldiers of the 42nd Wing of the Japanese Army began to storm one by one, armed with 38-type rifles with bayonets in their hands, under the cover of the high side of their own machine gun fire.

"Kill, onboard, onboard! For the sake of His Majesty the Emperor, kill the Hona Army! ”

"Kill, onboard, onboard! For the sake of His Majesty the Emperor, kill the Hona Army! ”

"Kill, onboard, onboard! For the sake of His Majesty the Emperor, kill the Hona Army! ”

The commander of the 42nd Wing of the Japanese Army, who was in charge of the attack and commanded the attack, Sosuke Fujikawa, brandished his katana and continued to shout, and the Japanese soldiers of the command post wing attacked the position of the new regiment on three sides, and their crazy tone resounded in the sky.

More than 3,400 Japanese soldiers, shouting that they were loaded on board, and when they were less than 100 meters away from the position of the new regiment, they began to attack with all their might, and the slogan of the charge shouted at them along with the bullets of the attack, so as to strengthen their courage.
