Chapter 572: The Only Way Out (First Update!) )
Sun Jiawu was also frightened by the picture in front of him, but his endurance was slightly better than that of his subordinates, and he quickly reacted!
Holding the box cannon in his hand, he shouted loudly: "What are you still doing in a daze, kill the devil for me immediately!" ”
"There are so many little devils, it is impossible to kill all the cavalry battalions!"
"The troops are divided into squads, and they will attack hard!"
The cavalry in front of them assaulted, and the infantry in the back covered and killed, cooperating with each other, just like giant chariots, rampage on the battlefield!
Wherever the chariot went, there was not a single living mouth on the ground except the corpses of devils......
The captain of the devil brigade was blindfolded, and his face was shocked and desperate!
He didn't expect that the Independent Regiment would hide such an ambush and kill his own mountain artillery squadron and an infantry squadron with a shot!
Seeing that the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army was unstoppable all the way and continued to rush towards him, the whole person was like an ant on a hot pot, very anxious!
Do nothing, the infantry can only be beaten passively in front of the cavalry, and it is impossible to be an opponent at all!
As a result, the entire brigade was rushed to pieces by the cavalry, and then wiped out by them little by little!
So I can't wait to die here, I must find a way to solve this crisis!
"Disperse and break out!"
These two words quickly popped into the captain's head!
But after thinking about it, he himself vetoed it!
There are plains within two kilometers of the surroundings, and it is difficult for the troops to run this distance under the pursuit of cavalry!
And once the troops are dispersed, they will have no advantage in front of the cavalry with strong assault capabilities!
In the end, even if someone could escape from the saber of the cavalry, there would not be too many!
Soon, Zhou Zhuang, who kept hearing explosions, entered the captain's field of vision!
A very bold idea also appeared in the head of the captain!
There is an earthen wall nearly two meters high in Zhouzhuang, which is an obstacle that the cavalry will never be able to cross! As long as the troops enter the village and rely on the earthen wall to defend to the death, the cavalry will not be able to threaten themselves, and the troops will be spared, and then hold out until the friendly army kills them!
As soon as he thought of it, the captain immediately made a decision: "Let's go into the village!" ”
"Only by defending the village can we survive the assault of the cavalry!"
"The mortar squadron continues to open fire, ignore the counterattack artillery fire of the independent regiment, and fire the most shells at Zhuangzi in the shortest time!"
In the position of the Zhouzhuang Independent Regiment, the soldiers of the eight or nine companies were nervous and anxious!
Cannonballs rain down and could take their lives at any moment! Hide in the corner of the earthen wall and pray that the cannonballs don't fall next to you!
They were very anxious again, watching the cavalry battalion and the guard company slaughtering all sides outside Zhuangzi, and they couldn't wait to rush to the battlefield now and show their skills!
Li Hao stood in the makeshift semi-underground bunker behind the earthen wall, holding a telescope, staring at the battlefield motionless through the lookout on the earthen wall!
The two company commanders have asked themselves for battle more than once, and he has refused!
There are too many Japanese puppet troops outside the village, and the assembly area is too large, even if the cavalry battalion makes an all-out assault, it is impossible to sweep the entire garrison at once!
The Japanese puppet army behind the assembly area has been in chaos under the cavalry assault!
But the puppet army has not been in chaos for nearly 500 days ahead!
If the two companies are killed now, it will happen to crash into the guns that the devils are already waiting for, not only will they not be able to kill them, but they will suffer heavy losses!
But Li Hao knows that it is impossible for the little devil to stay still all the time!
The Devil's Mountain Artillery Squadron and Infantry Artillery Squad have been wiped out under the cavalry assault!
The seven or eight hundred devils in the back are dead and wounded, and it is only a matter of time before the whole army is wiped out!
The mortar squadron will not be transferred either, and it will definitely not last long to continue shelling the machine-gun positions on the front line of the earthen wall with the shells fired by the independent regiment!
There were no mortars, no mountain artillery and no infantry artillery, more than 500 remnants of the army gathered in the open field, and at the same time they were attacked by the artillery battalion, the cavalry battalion, three mortar platoons, and a reinforced battalion.
At this time, there is only one way out for the little devil, kill into Zhuangzi, and rely on Zhuangzi to hold on until dawn!
Seeing the two company commanders coming again, they had an eager expression!
Li Hao didn't wait for them to open his mouth before he ordered with a serious face: "Get ready for battle, the little devil is going to attack us!" ”
"They will definitely not be ordered to launch a surprise attack on us, the troops must block their attack and destroy them in the attack!"
Hearing that there was a battle, the eyes of the two company commanders became hot at that time, and they glanced at each other, excited and assured!
"Please rest assured, the head of the regiment, we will kill as many little devils as we come!"
The two company commanders have the capital of self-confidence!
The positions that the troops have been transforming here for several hours are not for nothing!
Although there is an earthen wall around the village, it is more than half a meter thick!
Years of wind and rain have made them as hard as stones!
Even if the mortar shells hit it directly, it would only blow up a gap, and it would be impossible to destroy the entire section of the earthen wall!
When the position was renovated, this earthen fence was very well used by everyone!
Leaning on an earthen wall, putting a thick plank at the back, and then covering it with two layers of sandbags, a semi-underground bunker is a success!
The nine heavy machine guns brought by the whole regiment were all set up in this semi-underground bunker!
Don't look at the devil's shelling just now, which blew up a lot of gaps in the earthen wall, but only destroyed three and a half underground bunkers!
Now under the attack of three mortar platoons, the remaining mortars of the devils are less than half of the previous ones, and the firepower is not as good as before, and it is very difficult to destroy the remaining six heavy machine guns!
Now, the remaining six heavy machine guns behind the earthen wall are the confidence of the two company commanders to hold their positions!
"Regiment commander, the devils have started to attack, directly killing nearly three hundred people, at least ten light machine guns to provide fire cover, and a large number of grenadiers, no heavy machine guns!" Huang Sheng, the commander of the third battalion, reminded!
"The devil heavy machine gun squadron is definitely gone!" Li Hao judged, his face was obviously relieved, and then he began to give orders!
"When the cavalry assaulted, they didn't hear the sound of heavy machine guns, it must have been heavy machine guns mounted on mule horses, and they were killed by the cavalry battalion before they could enter the battle!"
"Without a heavy machine gun, our pressure will definitely be greatly reduced!"
"The troops are ready to fight, kill the little devils who have killed me for me!"
"Kill them, and I won't stop you if you want to attack again!"
The Japanese army is indeed crazy, lined up in three straggler lines, and rushed over as if they were dead!
The machine gunner held the machine gun in his arms, sandwiched it between the infantrymen, and fired as he charged!
The grenadiers rush to the end, in groups of three, with their eyes on the battlefield, ready to stop and fire grenades at any time to destroy the targets they see!
