Chapter 219: Counterattack on Jilong Mountain (4)

Baga, tell the 1st Wing that they must find a way to break the deadlock, integrate the troops, and break out. ”

South of the fortress of Fuchikou, the headquarters of the Japanese army Hatada detachment, Hatada Shigeichi was scolding at the headquarters.

If it is scolded, it can be used, maybe little Japan has already been scolded back to Japan, or maybe the Japanese have occupied all of China by scolding.

It is a pity that wars are not won by fighting war of words.

The current situation of the war was quite unfavorable for the Japanese army.

In the direction of Jilong Mountain, thanks to the cooperation of the 52nd Brigade of the 18th Division and one brigade of the 116th Division, plus the special service company and reconnaissance company of the 108th Regiment, the Chinese army has recovered most of the positions on Jilong Mountain and launched an active defense through the previously dug tunnels.

The rest of the Japanese army put up a stubborn resistance in a small part of the position on Jilong Mountain.

Today, this side of Jilong Mountain has become an important focus for both China and Japan.

To the south of Zhu Po Mountain, Leng Jie, who had three regiments, launched interspersed tactics and divided and surrounded the 1st Wing of the Japanese Botian Detachment around Dawu Mountain and other places.

South of Jilong Mountain, two divisions of the 52nd Army, two divisions of the 92nd Army, one division of the 54th Army, and one division of the 98th Army launched an attack on the 18th Wing of the 9th Division of the Japanese Army and the 2nd Wing of the Potian Detachment.

There was no doubt that the battle on the Ruiwu Highway was on a larger scale, but the focus of the battlefield shifted to the side of Jilong Mountain.

Jilong Mountain is the southern barrier of Fuchikou Fortress and an important commanding height on the Ruiwu Highway.

In view of the fact that the Japanese army was trying to find a way to recapture the Jilongshan position, Guan Linzheng sent the remaining 130th Division of the 53rd Army to reinforce the Jilongshan position and capture this commanding height.

At present, the Japanese Pota Detachment and the 18th Brigade of the 9th Division have suffered heavy casualties and a serious shortage of soldiers.

Shigeichi Harata didn't know what kind of wind the Chinese army was pumping, so he actually risked his life to launch a counterattack at this time.

What made him even more angry was that the 1st Wing would be divided and surrounded by Chinese troops.

"Your Excellency the Detachment Commander, a telegram has been sent from the Army Command. Commander Okamura has ordered the 9th Brigade of the 9th Division to come for reinforcements, and as soon as the 9th Brigade arrives, we will be able to change the current situation. Chief of Staff Kijima Daisa said.

"It's easy to say, the 1st Wing needs reinforcements now, or it will be wiped out." Shigeichi Harata said dissatisfied.

"Your Excellency Detachment Commander, at present, on the battlefield of Nanxun Road, the 116th Division is facing an even more difficult situation, and the army headquarters will definitely have no time to support our department." Kijima Osa was a little helpless.

"Baga, in terms of combat effectiveness, our Botian detachment threw off the 116th Division, and that waste division knows bad things."

Although the Hatian detachment is also called the Taiwan Army, in terms of combat effectiveness, it is not comparable to the 116th Division at all, but in this case, Okamura Ningji still chose to protect the 116th Division and ignored the Hatian detachment.

"Your Excellency, Detachment Commander, we didn't expect that there would be a figure like Leng Jie in the Chinese army, and he actually dared to intersperse with thousands of troops, causing the various units of the 1st Wing to be divided." Kijima Osa explained.

"I underestimated that Leng Jie, but a young man in his twenties, his combat ability is bolder than many division commanders and even army commanders.

Send a squadron of chariots, a squadron of baggage, and a squadron of infantry to find a way to free the 1st Wing. ”

Shigeichi Harata gritted his teeth and said.

He only had three tank squadrons in his hands, one to capture Jilong Mountain and one to support the 18th Brigade, and he had only one tank squadron in his hands.

The tank squadron he sent was not strong, not counting the previous damage, only 6 Type 94 tanks and 11 light armored vehicles, which was the weakest of the three tank squadrons.

But in his opinion, for the Chinese army, it is very strong, after all, at this time, the Chinese army has no decent armored units except for a 200 division.

However, apart from a squadron of chariots, there were not many infantry he could send out, only an infantry squadron and a baggage squadron.

The baggage troops are all used, and it can be seen that Ha Tian Shige's hands are really running out of soldiers.

But he couldn't do it, the wounded soldiers lost before the 1st Wing went out and sent to the rear, there are only more than 1,000 troops left, and now they are divided and surrounded in several square kilometers of mountains and forests, and the pressure is very great.

If the 1st Wing could not be rescued, this battle would not be able to be fought.

。。。。。。

To be honest, for the battle on the side of Fuchikou Fortress, the Wuhan side had prepared for the worst before.

After all, Li Fangchen's escape from the battle would make the leaderless 18th Division fall into a state of fragmentation, but I didn't expect the 18th Division to hold on in the end, and also launched a counterattack.

The Jilongshan counterattack has been fought so far, although it has reached a stalemate, but it has allowed Wuhan to see an opportunity, another opportunity to inflict heavy losses on the Japanese army.

The Nanxun Road side was an opportunity to inflict heavy losses on the Japanese army, and the same was also true on the Jilong Mountain side.

It's just that compared with the troops, the Jilong Mountain side is weaker than the Nanxun Road, after all, the army is mostly half-crippled troops.

In order to completely annihilate the Japanese army near Jilong Mountain, Chen Cheng was also out of the way, and transferred the 60th Army subordinate to the Dian Army to the Jilong Mountain battlefield, under the command of Guan Linzheng.

The 60th Army belonged to the Yunnan Army, although it lost more than 10,000 people in the Battle of Xuzhou, but after several months of repair and replenishment, the strength of the troops returned to the level before the Battle of Xuzhou, and the equipment of the 60th Army was very good.

The equipment of the 60th Army can be comparable to that of the Central Army's German Armament Division, mainly using legal weapons, and the combat effectiveness of the Yunnan Army is also obvious to all.

However, in the past few days, the Japanese army has sent aviation units to provide tactical support to the Japanese troops near Jilong Mountain, and the Chinese army, which lacks air supremacy, is also struggling.

And for the battle on this side of Jilong Mountain, there is another person who is also very concerned, and that is Han Bin.

After recovering from his injury, Han Bin also returned to the army and served as the captain of the brigade.

However, the air force has suffered large aircraft losses, and the gap between China and Japan in the air force is also very large, and although they tried their best to support the Battle of Wuhan, they still could not change the predicament faced by the Chinese army on the battlefield.

"Sir, I want to go to support the fortress of Fuchikou."

Knowing from various sources that Leng Jie was fighting very the side of Fuchikou Fortress, Han Bin had been very worried, and this time he learned about the attack of the Japanese aviation unit on Jilong Mountain and other places, so he couldn't help but run to Zhou Zhirou to ask for battle.

"Han Bin, I know what you think. As far as I know, that brother of yours is not on the main battlefield of Jilong Mountain, so there won't be much danger. Zhou Zhirou knew that the relationship between Han Bin and Leng Jie was not ordinary, so as soon as Han Bin came, he guessed the intention.

"Sir, despite this, the lowly position still asks for a battle to attack, and the lowly position cannot tolerate the devil's power in the air of our country." After hearing that Leng Jie was worry-free, Han Bin was also a lot relieved, but since he came, he naturally would not back down because of this.

"But our planes can't afford to lose anymore." Zhou Zhirou hesitated.

"Sir, at this time, our aviation forces really cannot sit idly by. The battle on the side of Jilongshan is related to the defense of the fortress of Fuchikou, and our aviation unit should fight even if it is not strong.

As for the lack of aircraft, it is possible to put the Soviet air force to aid China together.

Now the Japanese air force sees Han Binke as if they see a demon, and they avoid it, which is still of some help to the frontline battle, and can help the ground troops temporarily relieve the crisis in the air. Le Yiqin persuaded on the side.

Zhou Zhirou thought for a while, and finally nodded, looking at Han Bin, "Since this is the case, then Han Bin, you will lead the team to attack, and the Soviet Air Force will coordinate." ”

"Thank you, sir!" Han Bin said excitedly.

Seeing Han Bin's expression, Zhou Zhirou and Le Yiqin couldn't help but shake their heads. Obviously, Han Bin's application to play is still related to Leng Jie.

However, Zhou Zhirou has also heard about Leng Jie's incident in Fuchikou Fortress, and it is said that even the chairman of the committee has praised it.

It is rare for a student of the 10th phase of Whampoa to be praised by the chairman.

Thinking about Han Bin and then thinking about Leng Jie, he was also surprised.
