Chapter 439 The Trembling Jianbu Mountain (Middle)

The rainy night came very early, and when the third round of shelling by the anti-aircraft artillery company was completed, Jianbu Mountain was completely hidden into the night.

In the inky night, the drizzle was still dripping, and it seemed to be endless.

In front of the pass, the garrison of the 66th Regiment was lit up.

On the pass, the little devil's stronghold is also shining with the light of dusk.

In the command post of Goto's squadron, Captain Goto finished his hot dinner and chatted with Lieutenant Hiyama and others, since the battle in the Hukang River valley began, there was not much time for such a relaxing leisure.

The little devils obviously enjoyed this kind of time, and when they talked happily, they babbled and sang.

Perhaps because of the language, although the Japanese admired the spirit of bushido, the songs in their mouths sounded a little soft.

After a while, there was also a babbling song in the base next door, which sounded a little soft.

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

A group of little devils were singing loudly, but they could hear the sound of cannons under the mountain.

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

Immediately, the explosion was deafening, and the little devils only felt that the ground trembled, and they were all startled, and the singing stopped abruptly.

"Yaga!"

Captain Goto was furious, and after stabilizing his figure, he walked to the lookout in a rage, "Stupid Shina man! ”

Scolding angrily, Captain Goto subconsciously raised his binoculars, but it was dark outside, where could he see the situation under the mountain?

"Yaga!"

Captain Goto had no choice but to put down his binoculars angrily, looking at the dark night outside the lookout and roaring, "What the hell do they want to do?" ”

"Captain,"

Lieutenant Hiyama walked over with a smile, looking at the drizzle that was already drizzling outside the lookout, and looked determined, "Such a night...... As long as our department takes strict precautions, they will not be able to do anything! ”

"Hmm......"

Hearing this, Captain Goto's angry expression gradually faded, and he took out a cigarette and handed it to Lieutenant Hiyama, "Hiyama-kun...... It's me who lost my temper! ”

After the Changjiu Wing retreated from the defeat in the Hukang River Valley, it replenished its troops and adjusted its cadres, and its headquarters was expanded into five infantry brigades, plus the attached artillery, engineers, and baggage units, totaling more than 7,000 people, and the strength was extremely abundant.

Therefore, Changjiu Dazuo set up three lines of defense on the northern slope of Jianbu Mountain, deployed two infantry brigades and two mountain artillery squadrons, and defended according to the danger, which indeed had a good chance of victory.

It's just that Captain Goto had already suffered from the Indian army in the first battle of the Hukang River Valley, and at this moment he was arranged at the first pass, and the pressure in his heart can be imagined, so he was so out of shape.

At this moment, after being comforted by Lieutenant Hiyama, Captain Goto was a little relieved, and immediately ordered all departments to take strict precautions, so he sat back again, his expression relaxed, "Come, continue singing......

Soon, the cannon fire below the mountain stopped, and the singing in the stronghold on the mountain drifted in the night sky again.

The little devils in the stronghold would not have thought that at this time, Lu Quanyou and Zhao Dezhu were each leading a team to climb the mountainside in the rain and black between the cliffs on the east and west sides of the pass.

There was no road between the cliffs, so the soldiers had to use pickaxes to open the way and ropes to help them...... Every step was a perilous one, but no one flinched.

They all remembered Li Siwei's words at the time of parting, "Brothers, our difficulties have been shown to the little devils, if they have seen clearly, then, when we overcome these difficulties...... That is, the time of victory! ”

Although this trick to show the enemy is weak, it is not wrong in the direction, and no one can say for sure whether the little devil can be fooled.

However, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, the soldiers will not give up.

"Huh...... Slip ......"

The hillside, which had been soaked in rain for a day and a night, was wet and slippery, and the night was dark, and from time to time there would be brothers stepping on the air and sliding down the ropes.

However, no one made a sound from the beginning to the end, because no one was afraid that the sound would startle the sentinels of the little devils, and that would make the whole plan fall short!

Some people grabbed the rope and stabilized their bodies and continued to climb up, while others slipped down, adjusted the equipment on their bodies, and continued to grit their teeth and climb up.

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

In the middle of the night, the soldiers were still trying to climb between the cliffs, and then they heard the sound of cannons, which was the second round of cannons after nightfall...... It's eleven o'clock!

"Holy shit,"

On the artillery position of the 66th Regiment in front of the pass, the brothers of the anti-aircraft artillery company were busy in raincoats, and they were full of energy, "Get up and go to the thatched house......

The anti-aircraft artillery company strictly carried out Li Siwei's orders, and began shelling every three hours from 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and the sound of artillery was both rapid and slow, long and short.

This is a plan to disturb the enemy, and it is also a plan to confuse the enemy, as for the effect...... The soldiers think that there will be a little bit of it!

Of course, how can such a big movement not have an effect?

Hearing the sound of the cannon at the bottom of the mountain, the little devils who were sleeping in a daze woke up one after another, and hurriedly prepared to fight, and suddenly became a mess, but when they hurriedly finished their preparations, the cannon stopped, and there was no movement under the mountain.

"Yaga!"

There was a lot of scolding in the strongholds, "Baga ......"

After scolding, the little devils continued to sleep, and when they were in a daze, they heard the sound of cannons again, so they had to get up again.

After tossing like this twice, the sky finally gradually brightened, but the little devils in each stronghold still did not move, they were tossed all night and it was a rainy day, and no one wanted to get up so early.

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

The little devils don't want to get up, so naturally someone tells them to get up.

"Yaga!"

Captain Goto sat up suddenly, lifted the military blanket and rushed to the lookout, raised his binoculars and looked down the mountain, but saw that the smoke of the 66th Regiment was dancing lightly in the rain curtain, so he had to scold angrily, "Crazy! A bunch of maniacs ......"

Not only Captain Goto, but many little devils think that the artillery under the mountain is crazy.

"Captain......

Lieutenant Hiyama, who followed closely, also looked tired, looked at the position of the 66th Regiment at the foot of the mountain, and muttered, "This should be the enemy's trick...... I think they'll soon be on the real offensive! ”

"Hmmm......"

Hearing this, Captain Goto nodded slowly, "There is a possibility...... Our ministry should be ready now! ”

Captain Goto gave an order, and a group of little devils hurriedly got up, hurriedly ate breakfast, and waited for the battle.

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

At eleven o'clock, the cannon sounded on time, and all the little devils were in good spirits...... Yaga, the people of China should rush up this time!

The sound of the cannon soon stopped, but there was still no movement down the hill.

"Yaga! Baga ......"

Curses erupted in the strongholds.

It's almost there!

In the command post, Captain Goto held back his anger and secretly comforted himself...... The Shina will soon launch a real attack!

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

The little devils continued to wait patiently until two o'clock in the afternoon, when the cannon rang out again.

Baga ......

Finally heard the sound of cannons again, and the little devils were suddenly stunned, and finally came!

As on the previous occasions, the sound of the cannon soon stopped again, but there was still no movement down the hill.

"Yaga ......"

At the command post, Captain Goto looked at the camp below the hill from a distance in front of the lookout, his brows furrowed.

"Captain......

This time, even Lieutenant Hiyama was a little unsure, looking at the camp of the 66th Regiment at the foot of the mountain, with a hesitant expression, "Could it be ...... Is this just a ploy by the people of China to harass the enemy? ”

"Hmmm......"

Captain Goto nodded slowly and muttered, "Since yesterday afternoon...... There was a round of shelling every three hours...... Hiyama-kun's guess is very likely! ”

"That ......"

Lieutenant Hiyama turned his head to look at Captain Goto, his face full of embarrassment, "My department ......"

"Alas!"

Captain Goto sighed softly, his face full of helplessness, "What else can I do besides strict precautions?" ”

Knowing that this was a plan to harass the enemy, he had no way to deal with it.

However, if the strings are stretched too tightly and for too long, people will always get tired!

Therefore, not every little devil can endure the consumption of temperament any longer.

They were almost certain that by five o'clock, the cannon fire would ring out again from below...... And when the time comes, the situation will probably be the same as the previous times!

At this time, don't say that the little devil can't bear it, even the soldiers who have already detoured back to the back of the first pass in advance can't bear it.

After all, it's not a pleasant feeling to trek through the cliffs for the night, and then lurk in this muddy mountain for most of the day!

However, the promised flare has not been lifted off for a long time!

In front of the pass, in the temporary regimental headquarters of the 66th Regiment, all the generals gathered, and they all looked at Li Siwei with blank eyes, but Li Siwei, who was sitting on the main seat, looked solemn and only looked at his head and smoked a cigarette.

Li Siwei did this, although it made the little devil very uncomfortable, but why didn't he walk on thin ice himself?

Are the fighters ripe?

Or is it safer to wait a little longer?

"Commander,"

Seeing that Li Siwei finished smoking a cigarette and took out another cigarette and stuffed it into his mouth, Shi Meng couldn't help it anymore, and stood up with a resolute expression, "Give the order!" Our department ......"

"Good!"

Before Shi Meng's words fell, Li Siwei also stood up suddenly, swept all the generals, and looked resolute, "Six o'clock...... Attack on time! ”

It is safer to wait any longer, but isn't Lao Tzu spending so much effort just to buy time?

"Yes!"

The generals agreed loudly, and all of them looked excited.

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

At five o'clock, the twilight was getting darker, and the anti-aircraft artillery company launched an artillery attack on time, and suddenly the whole pass began to tremble again.

This shelling was no different from the previous ones, after the shelling, there was no movement under the mountain, but the little devil who had already prepared his heart was not as angry as before, but felt relaxed...... That's all the people of China!

As the night deepened, the camp at the foot of the mountain and the stronghold on the mountain were lit up at dusk, and in the drizzle, the northern slope of Mt. Gimbu was peaceful and peaceful!

In the command post of the Goto squadron, Captain Goto was chatting and laughing with Lieutenant Hiyama and others, and there was a certain calm attitude of "he let him go sideways, and the bright moon shone on the river."

After calming down, Captain Goto suddenly felt that he didn't need to be as nervous as before.

When they were able to speak, they babbled and sang a folk song that was widely spread in Kyushu, and the command post was filled with a joyful atmosphere.

"Bang ......"

At this moment, a dull explosion suddenly came, and Captain Goto was stunned, and subconsciously lowered his head to look at his watch.

Yaga! The time is not yet up......

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

Immediately, the explosion was deafening!

"It's a landmine!"

Lieutenant Hiyama on the side was the first to react, "It's a mine planted by our department!" The people rushed up......"

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

"Ahhh......h Uh-a-ah......"

"Enemy attack! Enemy Attack ...... Ah......h

Before Lieutenant Hiyama finished speaking, it was already boiling outside.

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

Immediately, the sound of artillery also rang out, but it was the roar of mortars.

"Yaga!"

Captain Goto jumped up as soon as he scolded angrily, and the command post was suddenly in chaos, making phone calls and taking weapons......

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

"Dada......"

"Bang ......"

"Ahhh......h Uh-a-ah......"

However, the attack that had been brewing for a long time was already imminent, so how could it leave them too much time to deal with it?

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

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

"Dada...... Dadada......"

"Ah......hh Uh-a-ah......"

In the night, the sound of guns and cannons in the Jianbu Pass shook the sky, and the screams were endless.

"Kill! Kill......"

The officers and men of the 3rd Battalion and the Mortar Company burst out of the night, and the soldiers entered the strongholds of the Goto squadron on both sides of the road in two ways, and their morale was like a rainbow!

"Da Da ......"

In the stronghold in the middle of the left side of the road, a machine gun was still roaring desperately, and then it was hit by a whistling shell, "Bang...... Boom ......", engulfed by churning fireworks.

"Yaga ......"

The adjacent stronghold had been breached, and a remnant of the little devil burst out from the thick smoke of gunpowder, roaring and pounced on Huang Changping, who was the first to rush in, and the bayonet in his hand went straight to Huang Changping's chest.

"Da Da ......"

The submachine gun in Huang Changping's hand had already gone off, and the bullets fired at him smashed the rushing body, and he collapsed to the ground weakly.

After the redress, all the squad leaders and deputy squad leaders of the 66th Regiment used Thomson submachine guns, which were not suitable for bayonets, but they were also sharp weapons in close combat.

"Da Da Da ......"

Turning over the oncoming little devil, Huang Changping's figure flashed, the submachine gun in his hand continued to roar, and the bullets whistled and rushed towards a little devil who had just gotten up from the smoke of gunpowder.

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

The brothers who followed had already rushed through the smoke and mended their guns.

When the three strongholds on the left side of the road were broken through one after another, the battle for the three strongholds on the right side had also been decided.

In the command post surrounded by three strongholds, more than a dozen little devils from the squadron headquarters were still resisting, and Captain Goto was holding the phone and roaring, "...... The outlying stronghold has been breached, and reinforcements are requested! Request for reinforcements ......"

"Yaga!"

There was only an angry roar on the other end of the phone, "pop", and the phone was hung up.

The owner of that roar was Shiraishi Shaosa, who was stationed at the second pass, and he was the supreme commander of the first line of defense of the Japanese army on the northern slope of Mt. Kenbu.

The northern slope of Mount Jianbu is steep, the terraces are stacked, and the difference between the second pass and the first pass is more than 100 meters, and between the two, the Japanese invaders have built more than ten strongholds on both sides of the road.

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

"Dada...... Dadada......"

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

"Ah......hh Uh-a-ah......"

At this moment, the sound of gunfire was advancing along the road towards the second pass, and the strongholds on both sides of the road were reduced to ruins as if they were destroyed.

"Yaga!"

In the headquarters of the Shiraishi Brigade, Shiraishi Dazuo had just hung up the phone, and he heard the sound of guns and cannons under the mountain approaching rapidly, and rushed to the lookout with a roar, just in time to see a bright red light burst out of the sky outside.

In the dark rainy night, the red light was so brilliant, like hot blood, staining half of the sky!

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

Before the red light dissipated, the two teams came out of the darkness behind the side of the mesa, it was the long-awaited roundabout troops!

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

"Dada...... Dadada......"

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

"Kill! Kill......"

"Ahhh......h Uh-a-ah......"

Tonight, the sound of gunfire and shouts of killing on the Jianbu Mountain Pass shook the sky, and the sound of miserable howls was heard one after another.

Tonight's Gimpo Pass is boiling!

Tonight's Gambu Pass is trembling!
