Chapter 598: Tear a piece of flesh down
When these puppet soldiers were chasing all the way, they didn't fly down from the mountains and forests when they flew down a group* from the mountains. I just never knew that in that corner, a barrage of machine-gun bullets were flying. From time to time, you can occasionally enjoy a meal*. The captured ammunition of the annihilated regiment made this eight-way ammunition very sufficient.
Mortars, light machine guns and *, plus platoon guns constantly toss and turn. When camping at night, there will always be uninvited guests who will teach them how to live a battlefield nightlife with weapons. Let them know that in this environment, this sleep is not something to sleep casually.
The commander of the puppet army, who had a bad start and was quite popular, was attacked by almost endless cold guns and sneak attacks with all kinds of tricks along the way, plus the head of Tu * was as big as a fight. During the day, the cold guns and cold guns all over the mountains and fields, and even on some dangerous terrain, you have to enjoy the treatment of a rolling log and a stone.
At night, there are endless sneak attacks, which are simply impossible to guard against. From time to time, there is also an occasional handful of big ones. During the day, half a company was lost in the morning, and a platoon was lost in the afternoon. In the evening, the shift change of the eighth road sneak attack, and when the number of people was counted in the morning, a few shifts were lost.
In just two days, this Japanese puppet army was exhausted. From the division commander to the groom, from the Japanese army adviser to the soldiers below, they all had red eyes and could sleep when they walked. Coupled with the large number of casualties, the morale of this Japanese puppet army declined rapidly.
But in the old base area of the Eighth Road, these days the puppet army also knows that they can pursue during the day, but it is better to honestly shrink together at night. And after suffering a big loss, these Japanese puppet troops did not dare to divide their troops to pursue them anyway, for fear of being poisoned by the Eighth Road.
This eight-way tactic is varied, and its whereabouts are strange and difficult to find. After suffering a big loss, the puppet army division commander was much more honest. No matter how big the loss is, he will not dare to divide the troops and encircle him. The two infantry squadrons of the Japanese army that cooperated with them in the battle were a little unconvinced. He had organized two squads to try to sneak up on their flanks in a roundabout way.
As a result, one foot stepped into an ambush circle, in the dense crossfire of a dozen machine guns, plus * accurate fire. Two-thirds of the corpses were lost, and only then did they escape with the full support of a regiment of the puppet army and a remaining infantry squadron. One Type 92 heavy machine gun that could be carried, plus four crooked sub-machine guns, were all dropped in the ambush circle.
After this battle, the Japanese army became more honest than the puppet army. The captain of a Japanese infantry group who was responsible for leading the team simply took the initiative to cover the artillery with the remaining troops. That is to say, you go out of the way, and you work in front of us, and we work under cover.
In fact, this Japanese army captain is a novice at this glance. If only those officers who have been stationed in the Chinese battlefield for a long time and have dealt with the Eighth Route Army for a long time know. When fighting against the Eight Roads, the most dangerous is not necessarily the striker. On the contrary, he is a defender, and the chance of being attacked by the eight roads in an accident is more than 80%.
When fighting an ambush, blocking the head and cutting off the tail are common tactics used in the eight roads. Therefore, the Japanese officers who have been dealing with the Eighth Route for a long time generally walk in the middle as long as they walk with the puppet army when they are moving, but there are not many who walk behind. For the sake of safety, this old man pushed the puppet army to the front and himself in the back, but in the end he caused a tragedy.
In this Japanese puppet army, they were shocked every day, and they were already exhausted, and the queue was getting longer and longer. With his artillery and baggage gradually beginning to fall behind, Li Ziyuan made up his mind after several considerations. Take advantage of the fact that the Japanese puppet army is tired and the marching sequence has been stretched for no longer than that, and make persistent efforts to give them a big one.
Of course, Li Ziyuan didn't expect to completely defeat this Japanese puppet army at once, but it was still possible to weaken their combat capabilities. Moreover, the artillery of the Japanese puppet army that fell behind was a piece of fat that lured Li Ziyuan. Even if you take back one, it's not worth the trip.
This Japanese puppet army was exhausted by his company platoon formation and repeated sneak attacks. But Li Ziyuan's own troops have rested quite well in the past few days, and it can even be said that they are recuperating. So Li Ziyuan decided to concentrate his forces and stab them fiercely, tearing off a piece of fat from this Japanese puppet army.
Of course, there is no open gun, but Li Ziyuan, the dark arrow, doesn't mind coming a few more times. At noon on the third day after the first battle, the tired Japanese puppet army was really a little unable to stay up and prepare to rest. Li Ziyuan's sudden attack completely shattered the dream of these people to take a short break after the sneak attack on the eighth road.
At noon, the sun hung brightly in the clear sky, and the people who shone it were sweating. Although these Japanese puppet troops were fighting their spirits, the Japanese puppet army, which had not slept well for two nights, became even more sleepy at noon on this day. Even the commander of the puppet army was drowsy on his horse.
At this time, a stream of eight roads suddenly and silently climbed over a cliff, and suddenly killed from the flank of the Japanese puppet army's marching sequence. Concentrate firepower and strength to defeat a company of the puppet army, and tear apart the connection between this Japanese puppet army and the troops behind the rear.
After defeating a puppet army company, this eight-way army was stuck between the main force of the Japanese puppet army and the artillery that fell behind. The machine gun and the grenadier canister hit accurately and hard. The sudden killing of the eight roads and the dense gunfire made the dazed Japanese puppet army wake up in an instant.
But when these Japanese puppet soldiers reacted, they found that the people behind them had been cut off. The artillery of this puppet army, which was left behind because of the difficulty of the mountain road, together with an infantry company covering the artillery, was immediately dispatched by the nest, and Li Ziyuan, who had concentrated all the troops and firepower that could be concentrated, made dumplings.
Fortunately, this time Li Ziyuan was specifically staring at his artillery, and the focus was on the Japanese army who followed his artillery, and he did not attack his main force with all his strength. It was just a force to contain it, so that it could not rescue the divided Japanese puppet army.
But compared with Li Ziyuan, who had a definite goal, the puppet army commander in front of him was a little panicked. Among the troops divided by the Eighth Route were not only all of his artillery, but also the Japanese troops who followed his own troops. Once these Japanese troops were completely annihilated by the Eighth Route, the Japanese would not be able to spare themselves. Therefore, forcing this guy can only work hard, and it can even be said that he will not hesitate to do his best.
After the beautiful division of the Japanese puppet army and the covering troops, as well as the artillery and baggage troops that fell behind. Li Ziyuan seized the terrain with a force and blocked the reinforcements of the main force of the puppet army. Concentrate all your forces and firepower and strike hard at the Japanese puppet army that he had divided.
This time, Li Ziyuan's goal was very clear, that is, in addition to the puppet artillery that was lagging behind, that is, one squadron of Japanese infantry artillery operating in the rear. This time, the Japanese army was in order to supervise the battle and cooperate with the battle. On this route, the Japanese army dispatched two infantry squadrons, one squad of infantry artillery and one squad of mountain artillery, plus two infantry guns of the 92nd and 94th mountain guns.
In order to provoke contradictions between the Japanese puppet army, Li Ziyuan focused the focus of the attack on the Japanese army. As for the puppet army artillery and baggage that don't have a few guns, it's just a rabbit beating a rabbit. Of course, Li Ziyuan still cares about the mountain cannons carried by this puppet army.
When the division commander found that the troops left behind were surrounded by the sudden killing of the Eighth Route in a mountainous depression, he concentrated all the troops at hand and reinforced, almost at any cost. was blocked by the two companies arranged by Li Ziyuan for two hours.
The accurate and ruthless cross-machine gun fire on the opposite side, as well as * made it almost impossible for him to move an inch. Coupled with the grenadiers that came over from time to time, as well as patches of *, which suppressed his reinforcements on the narrow mountain roads, it can be said that they climbed again step by step.
His artillery, along with the Japanese artillery who participated in the battle, were surrounded behind him. In the face of the dense machine-gun fire, even if he ignored the narrow terrain, he launched a wave charge. But apart from adding to the gains of the eight roads in front of him, almost no progress has been made.
waited until he paid the price of more than one battalion casualties, and finally broke through the eight-way blockade. To be exact, the eight ways that blocked them were after the evacuation. When he arrived at the location of the attack, he found that the Eighth Road in front of him had already evacuated. All that was left for him was the wounded soldiers and corpses in one place, and more than 20 remnants of the Japanese army.
As for the corpse of the Japanese captain, he felt a chill in his back. He was a well-established major general on Wang's side, and he was also a colonel in Chongqing before he surrendered to the enemy. But he, a major general of the army of the Nanjing government, is really inferior to a major in the eyes of the Japanese.
Even though they have soldiers in their hands, the Japanese will not do anything to them. Just because you don't do anything about yourself doesn't mean that the Japanese won't pursue it. I'm afraid I have to give at least a superficial explanation to the Japanese. Otherwise, once the Japanese have convulsions and disarm themselves, Mr. Sun will also do it.
Looking at the corpses and wounded soldiers in one place, I was looking at the reckless Taihang Mountains. This puppet army division commander suddenly felt a little remorseful? Why are you working so hard, why do you have to fight this eight-way endlessly? Mr. Sun lost his heart and liver baby, but it was Mr. Sun's heart and liver baby, not his own.
In this era when there is a gun is the king of grass, and if there is a gun, there is food, and there is food wherever there are soldiers in hand. If the troops are exhausted, they will be nothing. What did he throw himself into the enemy with the infamy of a traitor for, wasn't it just to keep his own team under the embarrassing situation of being squeezed out by the Central Army and even annexed?
When he was in Luxi, he didn't deal with these eight roads. I know that Shandong's eight roads are hard enough, and although the equipment is very poor, the combat effectiveness is quite strong. But I didn't expect that this old Eighth Road of Taihang Mountain would have more weird and tenacious tactics, and it was a harder bone. It's only been two rounds, and I'm biting all over my body, and I'm covered in blood.
Not only himself, but also the current boss Sun in Changzhi City, I don't know what went crazy. Why do you still want to take advantage of them, wouldn't it be better to find a way to live in peace with them like in Shandong? Especially Mr. Sun, his teaching group was lost if it was lost, and it wasn't that it wasn't reorganized, so why did he have to take revenge?
If this bit of strength in his hand is exhausted by the Eight Roads, he will only be able to use it as a tablet in the future. Thinking of this, the division commander was extremely remorseful in his heart, and faintly gave birth to a sense of retreat. It's just that at this time, if you want to withdraw it. Not only will the Japanese not agree, but even Mr. Sun will not agree.
