Mortar shells, whether they are 50 or 60 calibers, have both caliber guns in the mortars of the machine gun company, and as long as they are picked up, they can be used.

This is just Luo Zhicheng's small wish, in fact, the devil fled here, there are almost no mortars left, and there are no shells, either they were thrown away halfway or destroyed.

In addition to leaving some people to clean up the battlefield, the third battalion continued to advance with the 153rd Regiment, on the one hand, it was looking for its own 152nd Regiment to return and get closer, and on the other hand, it was also with the brother troops to pursue and sweep away the devils who might be left alone.

Theoretically, you may encounter a little lonely devil, but as a regiment of thousands of troops, you won't be bored enough to do this.

Of course, the order from the division headquarters had already arrived, urging the 153rd Regiment to advance quickly in the direction of Meiling, west of Nanchang, and the 151st Regiment and the 152nd Regiment intercepted a large group of Japanese troops at a place called Xiamaxi.

Now there is a fierce battle, the Japanese army is eager to get out, and the 51st Division of the middle ** is tightly entangled, and the Japanese army has no choice but to stop a force and fight to the death with the middle **, in order to solve this annoying middle **.

Because the 32nd Army in Anyi in the north, the 57th Division of the 74th Army in Gao'an in the south, and the 58th Division in the middle are all rushing to this side now, wanting to surround this area before the brigade of the 33rd Division of the Japanese Army enters Meiling.

Forced by the situation, the Japanese army jumped over the wall in a hurry, and the 151st and 152nd regiments of the 51st Division, which were responsible for dragging the Japanese army, are now feeling tremendous pressure.

After the division headquarters found out the news, they immediately found the 153rd Regiment that followed behind, and advanced quickly from Chixi, almost a dozen miles, and the forced march should be able to arrive in an hour.

In the mountains of northern Jiangxi, several troops were running fast through wind and rain, and the three divisions of the 32nd Army and the 74th Army were all running quickly towards the area from Xiamaxi to Shimashan.

Liu Guangyu, the commander of the 152nd Regiment, was also in a hurry now, so he contacted the Third Battalion by radio, and after learning that the Third Battalion had solved the Japanese army in Tianmiling, he also ordered the Third Battalion to quickly approach the regimental headquarters.

When the 3rd Battalion and the 153rd Regiment rushed to the vicinity of Xiamaxi, Luo Zhicheng climbed high to see that the telescope was full of Chinese and Japanese soldiers, fighting together for a few hills in this small area.

I learned a general situation from Liu Guangyu in advance, a brigade of the Japanese army, the main force is estimated to be about to retreat to Shimashan, and after Shimashan is Meiling, which belongs to the base camp of the Japanese army in Nanchang.

That is to say, after Shima Mountain, it is estimated that the ** will not dare to continue to move forward, and the devils in Nanchang will also come out to respond.

The devils who are now staying in Xiamaxi, it is estimated that there is a large group of men and horses, who are entangled by the strength of nearly two regiments of the 51st Division, and they can't break free, so they simply stay and fight to the death.

And the 57th and 58th divisions of the 32nd Army and the 74th Army are also about to arrive at Shimashan, and it is estimated that the troops in front have begun to contact and open fire.

There is only one brigade left by the devils, Luo Zhicheng deduces according to the strength and combat power, it should not be difficult to kill them, after all, the two regiments of the 51st Division, plus the 153rd Regiment and their three battalions are now built, they are already a neat division.

According to a unit like the 51st Division, if you fight against the Japanese army, you can withstand a wing, and now it should be easier to deal with a brigade when the other side has no planes and tanks.

But the regiment commander was still very urgent and helpless urging, the reason was that the Japanese army had four 92 infantry guns in this brigade, and it was estimated that the Japanese army was retreating quickly, and the few infantry guns that had been left here before would not be pulled away and left for this brigade to use.

Under normal circumstances, an infantry brigade of the Japanese army would be equipped with an artillery squad equipped with two infantry guns, and now there are four, which is equivalent to having two artillery squadrons, almost an artillery squadron.

Coupled with a machine gun squadron, such a configuration is a headache for the 151 and 152 infantry regiments, Liu Guangyu and they don't bring much heavy weapons in order to quickly pursue the Japanese army, even if they do, they can't go fast.

That is, two infantry regiments with dissatisfied members (the 152nd Regiment lacks Luo Zhicheng and their three battalions), which have a numerical advantage, but it is indeed a bit difficult to entangle a strong firepower brigade of the Japanese army.

Now the core position of the Japanese army, on a hill, four Type 92 infantry guns each based on one side, from time to time put a cannon, only found that the heavy machine gun of the first class fired, one shot, so that the heavy machine gun did not dare to make a sound.

Without heavy machine guns, it is difficult to take down the three or four hills of the Japanese army by relying on the soldiers' charge, and the Japanese machine guns and mortars are all spot-fired and scattered firing, suppressing the machine guns and rifles of the medium **.

The heavy firepower originally brought by the ** was not enough, and the only few heavy machine guns were either blown up by the 92-step guns, or they did not dare to show their heads, but they relied on some squad machine guns, and when they appeared, they were also suppressed by the mortars and heavy machine guns of the devils.

Luo Zhicheng thought that the Japanese troops who were retreating in stride did not have heavy weapons, but now he learned that this was originally an ammunition depot stronghold of the Japanese army, and the Japanese army could immediately equip it into a hoplite brigade as long as they opened the warehouse door.

No wonder Liu Guangyu was so anxious, the two infantry regiments of the Central Elite Army couldn't take a retreating brigade of the Japanese army, and they couldn't say where they went.

But the fact is, now I just can't take it, this has nothing to do with the number of people, no matter how many people there are, the weapons are not good, and if you go, you will be sent to death, but it will only increase the number of casualties.

Now the Japanese brigade occupies one of its own arsenals, and like the landlord's old wealth, it despises this group of poor bastards, as long as it guards for a few days to see what happens to these poor bastards.

It is estimated that there will be no need to defend for a few days, as long as it takes one day, the Japanese army in Nanchang on the Meiling side is estimated to be assembled, and they will come to meet the Japanese troops retreating from Fengxin.

At that time, if the Chinese ** does not retreat, then the Japanese army will dare to strike back, and the Chinese ** will be scattered all over the place.

Therefore, the top priority of the 51st Division now is not to pursue the main force of the Japanese army in Shimashan, but to solve the Japanese army in Xiamaxi as soon as possible.

If the Japanese army in Xiamaxi is not solved, the 51st Division will not dare to move forward, like a man's back, but it is a big trouble, and he would rather deal with the devils here than dare to go beyond and attack Shimashan.

Of course, the military headquarters of the 74th Army didn't think so, how could a division be pinned down by a Japanese brigade, and asked the 51st Division to leave a regiment to counter the Japanese army's Xiamaxi brigade.

The rest of the troops, marching towards Shimashan, cooperated with other main forces, quickly surrounded the Japanese army, and withdrew before the Japanese army in Meiling was dispatched.

The 51st Division had no choice but to leave the 152nd Regiment to contain the Japanese brigade in Xiamaxi, of course, the 152nd Regiment did not say so, and demanded that this Japanese brigade be killed and consolidate the rear for the 51st Division.

The division headquarters was still not worried about this Japanese army, for fear that they would be copied by the back road, and would rather ask the 152nd Regiment to sacrifice more and kill them to prevent future troubles.
