Chapter Seventy-Nine: Reconstruction
"Commander, the devil behind us has caught up, it's a truck."
The devil blockade who broke through Ma Liang was just around the corner, and at this time, the devil who had been left behind by them before finally rushed over.
"What to do? There's still a hill we haven't taken down! ”
Di Hanming looked at Yue Siliang anxiously, the devil's heavy machine gun was not easy to deal with. But the devil behind him came up again, and once he was caught in the middle by the devil, it would be all in vain.
"Don't go down the road anymore! The hill on the left has been taken, so turn around and go left and enter the mountain! ”
A qualified commander will never rigidly follow exactly the previously planned route. In the face of unexpected circumstances and objective reasons, appropriate adjustments will definitely be made.
"The first battalion will go first, bypass the left Maliang and enter the mountain, and after passing the Maliang, you will be able to join the brigade commander directly from the mountain road, and the second and third battalions will be broken."
……
"Captain, do you think we can still successfully intercept the escape of the Eighth Road?"
On the truck, Kato said to Sasaki with some concern. And Sasaki's face looked even more meaningful.
"There is no doubt about the strength of the imperial army, and we still have to give a certain amount of trust to the other ministries. Take the place of Ma Liang as an example, the commander in charge of this place has a high level of quality. Although no one would have expected that the Eighth Route Army would be able to go around behind us and break through from Maliang.
But the commander was able to seize the treacherous terrain and occupy the place, buying us precious time with four machine-gun squads. ”
Sasaki has always been a proud man, but this time he praised his colleagues in a rare way.
"What the wing captain said makes a lot of sense, but I'm narrow-minded."
Kato didn't actually guess Sasaki's thoughts, but this one hindered his flattery to his superiors.
……
The road into the mountain is not easy to walk, the first thing is to change the formation, the pass is only more than a meter wide, only two people can be allowed to walk side by side, and the road is still uphill, which means that the pace of the march will slow down.
It would take some time for the first battalion to enter the mountain, and the second and third battalions were now all outside the mountain, hiding behind bunkers and waiting for the Japanese troops that might appear next.
Lying behind a huge piece of sandstone, Li Jiequ squinted his eyes, he knew that he could not avoid this battle. A breeze blew, rolling up a cloud of yellow sand and blowing on Li Jie's face.
"Ahh
After smacking the sand in his mouth, Li Jie picked up the gun. There was a slight tremor under his feet, and the Japanese convoy had already appeared in his field of vision.
"Battalion commander, do you want to fight?!"
"Don't worry, let it go closer."
Li Jie commanded in a low voice, the devil is still out of range of the rifle, and there is no point in shooting now.
"Booming ......"
The speed of the truck in the mountains is not fast, it is only about twenty miles, but the distance of a few hundred meters is only a matter of an eye. In less than a minute, the convoy had already driven to a position of 500 meters in front of the position of the third battalion.
"Hit!"
Seeing that he had reached a suitable attack position, Li Jie suddenly let out a low roar. And the soldiers of the third battalion, who had already prepared on the side, immediately opened fire on the Japanese army!
The range of the 38 big cover is very long, and even if the bullet flies out of 500 meters, it can still do some damage.
"Smack!!
A bullet shattered the windshield of the truck and tumbled onto the seat inside. The legs of the Japanese officer who followed the car were trembling, his scalp was numb, and fine white sweat was oozing from his forehead.
"Enemy attack! Get out of the car and shoot back! ”
Hearing the crisp gunfire of the 38 Dagai, the Japanese soldiers in the car did not hesitate, and jumped out of the car with a snort, and then looked for the enemy in the parking bunker to return fire.
"Smack! Syllable! ”
The devil's marksmanship is very accurate, and his understanding of weapons is naturally stronger than that of the 424th regiment. As soon as the gunshots rang out from the third battalion, the devil immediately poured a row of bullets over.
"Whew!"
A bullet was nailed to the bunker in front of Li Jie, and the crumbling stone chips hit his face painfully.
"Hit hard! The devil's troops can't be lined up horizontally, they are few! ”
What Li Jie admires most about Yue Siliang is that he uses his brain all the time on the battlefield, and his ideas are correct in most cases. Li Jie knew in his heart that the quality of his soldiers was inferior to that of the devils, but the number of devils in front of him was much different from his own, as long as such a numerical advantage was guaranteed, the devils on the two trucks in front of him could not pose a threat at all.
"Wing Commander, our lead vehicle has been attacked."
"Huh? The Eighth Route Army even dared to turn back and engage us? Are their commanders stupid? ”
After Sasaki finished speaking, he shook his head again.
"No, this commander of the Eighth Route Army must have other ideas."
After opening the map and looking at it, Sasaki raised his eyebrows.
"No, the Eighth Route Army should want to change the way. But with the containment of the Maliang machine gun position, how could they turn the course so easily? ”
"Wing Commander, the specific situation is clear, half of the machine gun position on the horse beam has been lost, and the machine gun position on the left horse beam is broken."
Kato was a qualified lieutenant and immediately reported everything he knew to Sasaki.
"So that's the case, then it's no wonder. Tell the troops behind us to turn and rush directly in the direction of Hakuba to block the eight roads that are turning! As for the eight roads in front of us, there is nothing to worry about, blocking their back roads is what we have in our pockets! ”
……
The mountainous terrain in the eastern part of the Hakuba region has now become a chess flat, where two chess players, Yue Siliang and Sasaki, use their minds to play against each other in the air.
"Da Da Da ......"
"Smack! Syllable! ”
"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”
In the valley of Maliangnan, the 3rd Battalion and the Sasaki Wing Pioneer Team were engaged in a fierce firefight, and the fire and blood formed an invisible giant plough, turning over and over again this ancient and hard earth and stone.
"Battalion commander, the devil in the direction of the right horse beam has come down, and now he is heading towards our side!"
The two sides exchanged fire, but Li Jie received a not very good news, the machine gun devil of the right horse beam went down the mountain. After taking the left horse beam earlier, Yue Siliang made a decision to give up continuing to attack the right horse beam, and instead detoured from the left horse beam to the south, out of the range of the right horse Liang devil.
However, at this moment, this right horse beam devil actually bit up again like a mad dog!
"Gather firepower and stop the devils on the right horse beam, their heavy machine guns are more threatening."
Li Jie did not hesitate and directly gave such an order.
"But battalion commander, transfer the heavy firepower away, what should the devil in front of you do?"
The commander of the seventh company said anxiously that the devil's heavy machine gun is powerful, but the devil in front of him is also not bad, and it is doubtful whether the third battalion that has transferred firepower can suppress the other party like now.
"Rest assured, hold our flanks. The enemy in front of us has someone else to deal with, and this is not just our battalion. ”
After Li Jie said this, there was a sudden shout of killing on the mountain on the south side of the valley, and it was the second battalion that had been transferred there. More than 100 people from the fifth company rushed down from the hillside like dumplings and inserted directly into the flank of the devil. The truck, which was led as a cover by the devils, was useless in this direction.
"Qiang Qiang !!"
The second battalion's ability to fight is the strongest in the whole regiment, and under such a numerical advantage, coupled with a series of tactics summed up by the 424th regiment, the devils will not take much advantage in the process of stabbing at all.
"Smack! Syllable! ”
"This gang of eight roads actually shot in the stab, and all the officers immediately returned fire with pistols!"
The squad leader of the Japanese army had already realized that the 38 big cover did not have an advantage in the stabbing process, and immediately pulled out the Wang Ba box pistol he carried with him, and shot back at the 5th Company again and again. And several of his squad leaders also drew their pistols.
"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ……”
"Click~"
The Wang Ba box in his hand fired several shots in a row, but then the pistol of the Japanese squad leader malfunctioned, and his pistol jammed!
……
"Regiment commander, the second battalion has almost solved the devils."
After listening to the report below, Yue Siliang nodded lightly. Although he was very calm on the surface, Yue Siliang was actually very surprised in his heart. Because in his heart, the devil will definitely have a backup force, but now it seems that there is no army behind the devil to follow up?!
"Regiment commander, the first battalion and the first part of the second battalion have discovered the whereabouts of the devil in the Shuangshi Mountain in our southwest direction!"
Just as Yue Siliang was thinking about the reason for this matter, a report suddenly came from the first battalion!
"What?! The devil even changed his course?! ”
Yue Siliang was shocked, he didn't expect that even if this was the case, he still underestimated the devil.
"The whole army immediately left the battlefield and marched towards Shuangshi Mountain!"
At this point, no matter how much fantasy there is, there is no point in thinking, I am afraid that today's battle is inevitable.
……
"Regiment commander, the brigade commander has news. A large army marched from the White Horse to the area of Shuangshi Mountain! We...... It's time to rebuild! ”
On the way to the march, Cheng Fei finally brought the biggest good news of the day.
……
On Twin Stone Mountain, the 1st Battalion and the 2nd Battalion were stationed on a hill, and two kilometers away from them was a large force of Sasaki's Wing, and the devils were also hesitating to attack here.
In the midst of the lightning and fire between the two sides that were about to fight, the large troops sent by the brigade headquarters and the second and third battalions led by Yue Siliang arrived.
……
In the positions of the two sides, Sasaki and Yue Siliang were far away from each other. In this battle, the 424th Regiment and the Sasaki Wing both sides saw the moves, and each showed their own powers.
"Captain, what are we going to do?"
The dusty Kato asked tentatively, knowing that Sasaki was now on the verge of exploding. It is not an exaggeration to rush here with the full speed of the wing, but it turned out to be such a situation. How Sasaki vents his emotions is not an exaggeration in Kato's opinion.
“……
Never mind
……
Retreat.
……
That's it,
……
The Eighth Route Army in the Wutai region is also eyeing up. ”
Sasaki almost gritted his teeth and said this, and he glanced at the Eighth Route Army that was coming from the Hakuba region with hatred, and he decided to give up.
……
"Commander, we have successfully broken through."
So far, Wang Shuangyin is not as ecstatic as he imagined, perhaps because his spirit has been continuously stimulated with high intensity, and he can no longer feel that joy except for exhaustion at the moment.
"Well, it worked. This battle ...... We didn't win, Sasaki didn't lose, and no one was willing to draw like this...... Sasaki ...... I remember him. ”
Speaking of this, Yue Siliang glanced at the Japanese soldiers who were about to leave.
"It's a long time coming, let's go back."
……
