Chapter 316 Bloody Battle Salt Pool

In 354 B.C., Tian Ji and Sun Bin led the Qi army to create a classic example of "encircling Wei and saving Zhao".

"Thirty-six Strategies" has an incisive insight into the tactical idea of "encircling Wei and saving Zhao": "It is better to divide the enemy than to divide the enemy. The enemy yang is not as good as the enemy yin. ”

In later generations, the shadow of this tactical idea can be seen in many battles.

In the past, Tian Ji and Sun Bin used this tactic not only to relieve the siege of Zhao, but also to successfully inflict heavy losses on the returning Wei army, but few imitators in later generations could do so successfully.

As for "encircling the salt pond to save the Taichen", naturally there is no talk of "saving", if the arrogance of the Yuncheng Japanese invaders cannot be completely suppressed, the crisis of the Taichen will only be eased.

Yanchi is located in the southern suburbs of Yuncheng, and it is an important supply point for the 37th Division of the Japanese invaders south of Yuncheng, so it is naturally a good target.

However, Taichen is close to the nest of the 37th Division, and it is so important, how can it be so easy to fight?

The 37th Division has three infantry wings, an artillery wing, and a baggage wing, an engineer wing, and a search wing, with a total of nearly 20,000 people.

Of course, no matter how powerful the enemy is, it can't frighten the anti-Japanese soldiers, and if it doesn't have the courage to shake the tree, how can China, which is weak and has a poor people, persist in fighting until now?

The remnant sun is like blood, the salt pond is filled with gunsmoke, and the sound of gunfire and cannons is shocking.

"Da Da Da ......"

"Bang ......"

"Bang bang bang...... Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

"Kill ......"

The 177th Division and the 47th Independent Brigade divided their troops into three routes and launched an attack on Yanchi from the east, south, and west.

"Woo Woo ......"

"Shhhh......h

Bullets whistled in their ears, shells rained down, and the soldiers fearlessly rushed to kill, pounced on the little devil's defense line again and again.

"Yaga ......"

In the Japanese army stationed in the Yanchi headquarters, Idazu Ide jumped like thunder, "Reinforcements!" Reinforcements...... Why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet? ”

"Osa," Staff Officer Oga Nakasa hurriedly reassured, "Anishi Saka and Okamoto have all rushed here......

"Yaga!" Osa Inide turned his head abruptly and stared at Oga Nakasa fiercely, "Ask them again...... When exactly will it arrive? ”

"Hey!" Ohga Nakasa reluctantly promised, but he was smiling bitterly in his heart.

There is a brigade stationed in this salt pond, and you are counting on reinforcements before it opens?

This boss ...... What a rat boy!

"Da Da Da ......"

"Bang ......"

"Bang bang bang...... Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

Ximen, the head of the 1058th Regiment Jia saw that he couldn't overcome it for a long time, rolled up his sleeves, pulled out his gun and rushed out, "Guard Company, go with Lao Tzu!" ”

"Yes!" The brother of the guard company pulled down his spear and followed.

You only get one chance!

Either go down in one go, or go home, and there is no third option!

"Dog's day," in the southern suburbs, outside the temporary headquarters, Division Commander Chen looked at the main battlefield outside the south gate, his face was pale, "Revenge, pull up the guard battalion to Lao Tzu!" ”

"Yes!" Adjutant Yang agreed and hurried away, "Brother of the guard battalion, go with Lao Tzu!" ”

As an old-style army, in the Fourth Army, middle-level officers have always retained the tradition of pioneering, and the casualty rate is very high!

"Da Da Da ......"

"Bang ......"

"Bang bang bang...... Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

Outside the east gate, the commander of the 1060th Regiment Gao held a box cannon in his left hand and a grenade in his right hand, bowed his body slightly, and rushed to the defense line of the little devil in the face of the rain of bullets, with a hideous expression.

"Woo Woo ......"

Bullets whistled in my ears.

"Ahh......h

The screams didn't sound behind them.

It's getting closer......

Head Gao gritted his teeth, and there was only one thought in his mind...... Rush over, and the brothers will never have to die again!

Of course, there are many ways not to die, such as fearing the enemy, such as fleeing from the battle, and ...... Don't wear this leather at all!

However, the Fourth Army can't do these things, and the Sanqin men can't do such things!

If you are afraid of bloodshed, why bother to go out of Qinchuan!

It's closer, it's getting closer......

100 meters, 80 meters, 50 meters......

But most of them have already fallen!

"Grenade ......"

With a roar, Commander Gao put the grenade to his mouth, bit the string and pulled it, and threw it at the position of the little devil.

"Whew......"

Regiment Commander Gao took out the grenade from his hand and kept walking, but a bullet had already come head-on and hit his lower abdomen.

"Poof......

Blood splattered, and Regiment Commander Gao was shocked and fell on his back.

"Woo Woo ......"

All the soldiers threw out grenades one after another, but when they saw the head of the regiment Gao who was slowly falling, they were all shocked and cried out bitterly, "Commander......

A quick-eyed brother hurriedly caught the fallen head of the regiment and dragged him to retreat.

"Rush ......"

Captain Gao raised his hand with difficulty, wanting to push the brother who was helping him away, but where did he still exert his strength? Just roared hoarsely, "Rush...... Ga Dan, Rush ...... Rush ......"

"Bang bang bang...... Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

The sound of artillery bombardment sounded in the trenches of the little devils, the smoke of gunpowder was billowing, the howls were everywhere, and the gunfire suddenly stopped.

"Commander......"

Ga Dan's footsteps did not stop, dragging the head of Gao to retreat, his face was full of anxiety, "The brothers will rush up immediately!" ”

"Rush ......"

Commander Gao raised the muzzle of the gun with difficulty, aimed it at his temple tremblingly, and roared hard, "Rush ......"

"Commander......" Ga Dan was shocked and hurriedly yelled, "I rush...... This is the ...... Kill......"

With a roar, Gadan let go, picked up his spear and rushed out.

"Alive...... Come back ......."

Head Gao fell to the ground softly and muttered, "Gadan, come back alive......"

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, but tears had slid down the corners of his eyes.

As soon as the pace of the charge begins, you can't retreat!

Lao Tzu can't back down, and he won't allow any brother to back down!

On the battlefield, fear is like a plague, and even if just one soldier starts to flee, it can ruin the entire victory!

"Kill ......"

"Kill ......"

"Kill ......"

The shouts shook the sky, and the forward troops of the 1060th Regiment broke through the central defense line in an instant, jumped into the trenches, and killed the remaining little devils, while the follow-up troops were pouring up in a steady stream, and chaos continued to spread in the central position of the little devils.

On the left flank, Private Ikeda Chitetsu saw this scene and suddenly turned pale, hesitated slightly, picked up his spear and turned to run.

At this moment, Ikeda Chitetsu is really scared!

He's just a middle-aged farmer from Kurume who has a wife and children to support at home!

The moment he set foot on the battlefield in China, he secretly told himself: The emperor's great cause has nothing to do with me, a peasant, and I must not die in a foreign land because of the emperor's great cause...... I'm going home alive!

"Yaga ......"

The second lieutenant of Shan County naturally saw it, and raised his gun with an angry scolding, "The one who retreats ......"

Before the second lieutenant of Shan County could speak, he saw several soldiers raise their guns and chased after him...... Naturally, they didn't chase after him to punish Ikeda.

"Yaga ......"

More and more soldiers joined the fleeing queue, and angry shouts erupted from the battlefield!

"Bang ......"

The second lieutenant pulled the trigger, and one of the fleeing soldiers fell in response, while the other deserters ran faster.

"Yaga ......"

The second lieutenant of Shan County only felt that it was dark in front of him...... Are these people still heroic Imperial Army?

In every big war, the elite has long been fighting fewer and fewer, and the more brave the soldiers, the easier it is to die!

"Kill......"

"Kill......"

"Kill......"

The shouting of killing shook the sky, but a rare farce of fleeing was staged on the left flank position of the little devil!

"Kill......"

"Kill......"

"Kill......"

The morale of the officers and men of the 1060th Regiment was high, and they rushed to the position of the little devils.

On the battlefield, the enemy's retreat is the best incentive for your own morale!

"Commander, we won, we're going to win......"

On the position of the 1060th Regiment, the two brothers carried the regimental commander Gao to the position, and Staff Officer Zhai chased after him on the stretcher, roaring loudly, his eyes were already moist, "You must hold on!" We're going to win...... It's going to win......"

"Rush ...... Rush ......"

Head Gao's lower abdomen was bleeding, his face was pale, his eyes were slightly closed, his lips were closed, and his voice was like a mosquito and fly, but he was already shouting, "Rush...... Rush ......"

"Rush! Rush ......" Staff Officer Zhai nodded hurriedly, "The brothers who can rush have all rushed up...... Reinforcements from the division headquarters will come soon......"

"Da Da Da ......"

Before Staff Officer Zhai's words fell, he came in a hurry, but it was Staff Officer He of the division headquarters.

"Staff Officer He," Staff Officer Zhai heard the sound of hooves, and hurriedly turned around to meet him, his face full of anxiety, "What about the reinforcements?" Have the reinforcements arrived? Our department has broken through the defense line of the little devils......"

"Reinforcements are coming soon!" Staff Officer He reined in his horse and jumped down, but his voice was solemn, "The little devil's reinforcements have arrived, we must hurry up...... Commander Gao and his wounded brothers must be evacuated immediately! ”

In the western suburbs, the 46th Independent Brigade had already exchanged fire with the little devil's reinforcements.

"Bang bang bang...... Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

The sound of the explosion shook the sky, the smoke of gunpowder was billowing, Yanchi was located in the southern suburbs of Yuncheng, a horse and a flat river, the fortifications hurriedly repaired by the 46th Independent Brigade could not stop the mortars of the little devils at all, and the stumps and broken arms loomed in the churning fireworks, and the miserable howls were endless.

"Da Da Da ......"

"Bang ......"

The guns rained down and bullets flew everywhere, bringing up a canopy of blood and a terrible scream.

"Hold on! Resist ......"

On the left flank position, Liao Heiniu roared and ran on the defensive line, "The brothers of the 177th Division are behind you, and Lao Tzu must not retreat...... No return! ”

"Ahhh......h

There was neither a geographical advantage nor a firepower to suppress, and the defense line was crumbling under the onslaught of the little devils.

"Holy shit!"

Commander Zheng's eyes were red, "Guard Company, go with Lao Tzu ......"

"Regiment Commander," before Commander Zheng could finish speaking, Staff Officer Zhang shouted, "Look at the ...... left wing"

"It's Deputy Liao," the guard Lian Ge Company Commander exclaimed, and hurriedly pulled out his gun, "Brothers, rush with Lao Tzu...... Bypassed from the right flank. ”

On the left flank, Liao Heiniu has already led the power platoon to break out of the defense line and killed the right flank of the little devil, although there are only more than 30 people, but they are all vigorous, one person, one spear, four grenades...... If you can't stop it, then attack.

On the right flank, Company Commander Ge also rushed out of the position with the guard company, and rushed straight to the position of the little devil, brave and decisive!

When we meet on a narrow road, only courage can be relied on!

"Bang ......"

"Kill, kill, kill, ......"

The guns at the east gate of Yanchi rained down, and the shouts of killing shook the sky, and the reinforcements of the 1059th Regiment arrived and entered the Yanchi from the gap torn by the 1060th Regiment.

Defeat is like a mountain!

The remaining little devils were drowned in the charging ranks, and retreated in panic towards the town.

Charge, flee, block...... No matter how brave you are, no matter how fierce you are to death, you will never have a chance to get up again if you fall.

The battlefield is a slaughterhouse!

Li Siwei hurriedly led his troops over, and felt the tragic aura from afar.

"Da Da Da ......"

A horse came in a hurry, and the herald on the horse roared loudly, "Commander Li, reinforce the western suburbs first......"

"Yes," Li Siwei hissed in agreement, turned around and ran to the western suburbs, followed by the brothers of the third battalion, "Bang la la ......", and the sound of pulling the bolt of the gun rang out.

"Bang bang bang...... Boom Boom Boom Boom ......"

"Da Da Da ......"

"Bang ......"

The sound of explosions and gunshots in the western suburbs shook the sky, and the churning gunpowder smoke covered the sky.

On the left flank, Liao Heiniu and his party had already been killed by the little devil's blocking force.

"Bang ......"

"Ah......hh

In close combat, the butt of the rifle is the most powerful weapon, and the frenzied warrior only wields his spear with all he wants, only wanting to smash the enemy's head with the butt.

On the right flank, the guard company also engaged with the little devil's blocking force in close combat, and the killing was in full swing.

On the central position, Regiment Commander Zheng pulled away the brother who had fallen on the machine gun position, pushed him up, "Da Da Da ......", and only cared about pouring out the angry bullets.

"Holy shit,"

Li Siwei led his troops to hurry over, looked at the battlefield, turned around and rushed to the left flank, "Rush with Lao Tzu......

"Regiment leader," Wang Liugen hurriedly followed, "the central position ......"

Isn't the central position precarious?

"Rush!" Li Siwei didn't stop, "rush to ...... Break the dog's day to keep the position! ”

When there is no danger to defend, attack is the best defense!

"Bang ......"

Li Siwei rushed out of the left flank position with the third battalion and went straight to the position of the little devils.

"Yaga ......"

On the position of the little devils, Banxi Shaozo looked at this suddenly killed army from afar, and was suddenly shocked and angry, and hurriedly put down the binoculars, "Stop them!" Stop them......"

"Shaoza," Staff Officer Captain Nishino looked anxious, "we must get out of the battlefield as soon as possible......

"Yaga!" Sakanishi Shaozo pulled out his saber with a "choking" sound, and glared at Captain Nishino murderously, "Those who retreat ...... die"

"Hey!" Captain Nishino's heart tightened, and he hurriedly agreed, and was about to turn around and leave.

"It's on fire,"

The attendant officer suddenly exclaimed, "Shaozuo, the salt pond is on fire......

"Yaga!" Banxi Shaozuo was startled, and hurriedly turned his head to look, and saw several pillars of smoke rising from the salt pond.

"Shaoza," Captain Nishino looked over stubbornly, "Shioike has lost ......"

"Yaga!" Sakanishi Shaosa turned his head suddenly, glared at Captain Nishino fiercely, and finally just squeezed out one word angrily, "Withdraw!" ”

"Attacked,"

Someone on the position of the 728th Regiment also discovered the smoke column in the direction of Yanchi, and shouted in surprise, "The brothers of the 177th Division have attacked......

"Attacked, we won......"

"We won...... Kill......"

For a while, shouts rang out, and all the soldiers rushed out of the position one after another, rushing straight to the remnants of the Banxi Brigade.

"Da Da Da ......"

"Bang ......"

"Woo Woo ......"

Where can the earth-shattering gunfire and whistling bullets stop the soldiers' desire for victory?

Too much blood has been shed for the sake of victory!

For the sake of victory, why shed some more blood?

That victory is clearly at hand!

The little devil quickly retreated, and the soldiers desperately pursued!

After a while, the gunfire gradually fell off and went away!

On the way to pursue, Li Siwei saw Liao Heiniu who was sitting on the ground, and quickly stopped, rushed over, panting, "Black Bull ......"

"Cannon ......"

Liao Heiniu followed the prestige, and his bloodstained face smiled and blossomed, "Lao Tzu will ...... I know you...... You're definitely coming ......."
