Volume 4 Chapter 312 Night Street Fighting, Our Independent Brigade is a veteran!
"Nani? What did you say? The 163rd Wing has been completely annihilated, and the enemy has entered the city from the south gate? ”
Seeing the devil herald of the 31st Wing who rushed to the headquarters of the 110th Brigade in a panic, Nanda Taijiro was suddenly surprised!
"Haily, brigade commander! The 163rd Wing has been completely wiped out, and the Wing Commander Ogiwara Osa has been killed! At present, the enemy has at least two regiments or more troops who have entered the city from the south city gate, and the two brigades that are going up to reinforce with our 110th Wing are engaged in fierce battles here, and the main street of Chaoyang Street and several small streets near it. Brigade commander, the enemy is under fierce fire, and our wing commander sent a small one to ask for tactical guidance! ”
The devil herald panted and reported, looking in a hurry!
"Yaga, steady!"
Nanda Taijiro scolded the devil herald who came to report the battle situation: "We are soldiers of the empire!" Order your co-captains to resist resolutely! Behind is the brigade headquarters, hold on for half an hour first, go! ”。
"Hai, brigade commander!" The devil herald the soldiers paused heavily, and then ran out of the 31st Brigade Headquarters with a brisk pace.
At this time, the chief of staff of the 31st Brigade, Sajiro Anto, who hurriedly ran out of the command headquarters, approached Nanda Taijiro's side and said in a low voice: "General, the battle situation is not good!" Li Yunlong's independent brigade only rested for about a week before brazenly sending troops north to attack Yangyuan City. And the other party unknowingly killed under Yangyuan City, which shows that Li Yunlong already knows the terrain in Yangyuan City well, and we have lost the opportunity. ”。
"Ando-kun, what do you want to say?"
Nanda Taijiro frowned, this Sajiro Ando has something to say!
Sure enough, Sajiro Ando said in a condensed voice: "In less than an hour of fierce fighting, the 163rd Wing, the elite wing of my 31st Brigade, was completely annihilated by the enemy, and it was annihilated by the other party so quickly when the 163rd Wing controlled many commanding heights in the Yumai Mountains of Hengshan outside Nancheng City. The combat power of Li Yunlong's department is obvious! It is suggested that we should temporarily withdraw from Yangyuan City and retreat north to Yanggao and Tianzhen, which are closest to us! It was guarded by the garrison of the county under the control of the First Army, who could receive us. ”。
It's just that Nanda Taijiro shook his head and pointed to the dark sky outside the brigade department at this time, "It's too dangerous to withdraw from Yangyuan City at night!" Although our 31st Brigade belongs to the elite 110th Division, all the departments of the brigade under its jurisdiction are very elite. But when the troops are withdrawn at night, it is even easier to be chased by the enemy in a hurry! What's more, the troops of the Eighth Route Army are generally good at night battles, and Li Yunlong's independent brigade is even better at night battles. We relied on Yangyuan City to carry out street battles, and we were able to hold it off for a while. Once the encirclement is hastily broken out and retreated at night, it will be difficult for the various units to concentrate and safely retreat north. ”
"Ando-kun, you can't withdraw!"
Sajiro Ando only came back to his senses at this time, although the Japanese troops under the jurisdiction of the 31st Brigade were elite, their field strength was not weak.
But for Sajiro Ando, who is familiar with the 31st Brigade, the devil soldiers of the 31st Brigade are not good at field warfare. Once he hastily broke through and retreated north, he was pursued by the independent brigade headquarters that was good at night fighting, and he couldn't keep it in the darkness of the field and was eaten by the other party little by little.
You must know that at this time, Yangyuan City is also a considerable distance from Yanggao and Tianzhen!
"It's a lowly job that is not well thought out!" Sajiro Ando quickly said to Taijiro Minamida ashamedly.
Taijiro Minamida waved his hand, not caring.
At this time, the sound of gunfire from the direction of Nancheng was gradually approaching, indicating that the total annihilation of the 163rd Wing was an indisputable fact. Otherwise, how could the sound of gunfire have already approached the brigade headquarters from Nancheng?
"We must block the main force of the enemy army from the south gate on Chaoyang Street and its nearby main streets!"
Nanda Taijiro turned his gaze to the map of Yangyuan City on the table, thought about it, and then said in a condensed voice: "Ando-kun, you personally go to supervise the battle, lead 1,400 people from the reserve directly under the brigade, and cooperate with Fujikawa Shotaro for me, and I must block the attack of the main force of the independent brigade." ”。
"General, I'll take the reserves, and there is less than one squadron left in the brigade headquarters to protect it!"
Sajiro Ando's eyes were solemn, and he couldn't help but speak.
At present, the 31 Brigade still has 110 Wing and reserves directly under the brigade.
However, the 110th Wing had already gone up to two brigades to engage in fierce battles with the main attack forces of Zhang Dabiao and others, and the other infantry brigade of the 110th Wing would defend the other Yangyuan Sanmen with other Japanese troops at this time. At this time, in the hands of the old devil Nanda Taijiro, it is true that only the reserves directly under the brigade can be used.
It's just that Sajiro Ando knows that once this reserve that can be used at the end is mobilized, around the 31st Brigade Headquarters, there will only be more than 100 devil soldiers to protect Nanda Taijiro's Brigade Headquarters.
Nantian Taijiro waved his hand coldly and said: "At this time, there is no point in keeping the reserves directly under the brigade, even if the Commander of the Front Army and the First Army, General Okabe, has learned that we have been attacked by the main force of the Independent Brigade in Yangyuan City, and immediately sent reinforcements." But we won't be able to come for a while, and we are on our own for now. Execute the order! ”。
"Hai, General!"
Taijiro Ando paused a little sadly, and then walked out of the Devil's Brigade Headquarters.
At this time, standing on the commanding heights of a hill in the Yumai Mountains of Hengshan outside Yangyuan Nancheng, Li Yunlong looked at Yangyuan City with a telescope.
I saw that in the dark night sky, Yangyuan City had been awakened by the fierce guns. On the street, the fires from the explosion and the white ballistics of bullets in the dark night sky are very eye-catching.
"Report to the brigade commander, the first regiment is and the second and third regiments that have broken through to the south of the city one after another, and steadily advance to the location of the 31st brigade headquarters of the Japanese army in the city in accordance with the siege deployment. At present, all three regiments have entered the city, and one battalion of the first and second regiments, and one battalion of the third regiment and one battalion of the third regiment have engaged in fierce battles with two battalions of Japanese troops who suddenly encountered the southward on the main street of Nancheng and several small streets near it. At present, my attack on various departments is progressing smoothly, and it has reached Chaoyang Street! ”
Under the illumination of the flashlight, a staff officer of the brigade headquarters who came to report put down the phone and pointed to the Yangyuan map that was laid out, and reported to Li Yunlong in detail.
"Chaoyang Street!"
Li Yunlong looked at a main street in Yangyuan City, which was already very close to the temporary headquarters of the 31st Brigade in Yangyuan City, where Nantian Taijiro was stationed, and the rapid march was only four or five minutes away!
"Order Zhang Dabiao and them, speed up, and annihilate the devils who are blocking the attack. Fully cooperate with the 2nd and 3rd regiments to storm and encircle the headquarters of the Devil Brigade! ”
Li Yunlong sneered at the Yangyuan map, once he hit Nantian Taijiro's headquarters, the battle situation was decided!
"Understood, Brigadier Commander!" The staff officer of the brigade headquarters of the army smiled, immediately turned around and walked to the side, picked up a field phone, and directly issued Li Yunlong's order to the various departments that attacked the city.
For the Independent Brigade, Taijiro Nanda actually did not command the remnants of the devil to break through. If Taijiro Nanda leads the remnants to break through the siege, perhaps the units of the Independent Brigade may not be able to completely annihilate the 31st Brigade Headquarters when the light is dark.
It's just that Li Yunlong saw that now, the little devil did not give up the breakout of Yangyuan City, and he suddenly felt relieved.
You know, in night street fighting, all units of the Independent Brigade are veterans!
