Chapter 225: Heroic
The two divisions of the Eighteenth Army did not fight as easily as Chen Fei thought in Qianlong Bay, but because the terrain was narrow, which was not conducive to the deployment of troops, they were always pressed and beaten by devils, and it was difficult to blow up the bridge. The main problem is all kinds of artillery fire from devils, the two divisions of the Eighteenth Army have no way to lean on the wooden bridge built by the devils, and it has been two hours since they asked for heavy artillery support, and there has been no movement at all, General Peng Shan, the commander of the Eighteenth Army, has a good impression of Chen Fei, everyone is an anti-Japanese general who is famous for killing devils, but now Chen Fei's heavy artillery regiment has not moved, which makes General Peng Shan depressed, and he is not good at hitting Chen Fei's small report to the Military Commission to complain.
He Wenbin Headquarters of Batu Village.
"How? Did the devil retire? He Wenbin said to Lu Ziheng.
"Retreat is retreat, but I don't know where to wait, or we will let it go." Lu Ziheng was a little upset and said irritably. He was overwhelmed by the devil's play.
He Wenbin looked at his watch, and it had been two hours since Chen Fei received the order to assist the Eighteenth Army.
"Commander Huang, can you send a few shots to support the Eighteenth Army, and then quickly transfer." Chief of Staff He said.
"It's okay to shoot a few shots, but where to move to, the position we originally prepared is estimated to be blown up by the little devils now." Head Huang looked at He Wenbin and said.
"Well, let's not pull the cannon to the village." The head of Batu Village next to him said.
He Wenbin thought for a while and said: "It's okay to enter the village, but the road in the village is too small, and you can't get in when the time comes, and if you stay at the entrance of the village, it will be troublesome······"
The leader immediately said: "Don't worry, I have demolished a few houses at the entrance of the village, and I will also let the cannon enter the village." ”
The three of them were stunned, looked at each other and nodded.
"In this way, chief, you immediately go and inform the village, saying that the cannon is going to enter the village, and tell the villagers to prepare to prevent the devils from suddenly attacking the village entrance, and put the young and strong guys at the village entrance." He Wenbin said.
"Okay, I'll go right away." After the leader finished speaking, he hurriedly returned to the village.
"Who's got the money?" He Wenbin said.
"Our regiment has, what's wrong?" Lu Ziheng Road.
"Later, to the chief, let him give it to the damaged people." He Wenbin said.
"Yes!" Lu Ziheng replied.
"Commander Huang immediately contacted the Eighteenth Army, and twelve minutes later, two base shells. After the fight, he immediately transferred to the village, and the head of the road regiment paid attention to vigilance. He Wenbin said.
"I'll go and contact the Eighteenth Army immediately, Chief of Staff He, I will leave two bases for ammunition, and the rest will be transferred first with the fuel truck." Huang Tuan said.
"Okay, call your guard battalion together, and the sixth regiment will assist you in transferring after the shelling." He Wenbin said.
"Yes, yes!" The two replied at the same time.
"What else would you like to add?" He Wenbin said.
"Nope." The two replied at the same time.
He Wenbin nodded and said, "Let's get started!" ”
"Yes!" The two replied and immediately began to prepare.
The reason why He Wenbin was so cautious was because he was scared by the paratroopers of the devil, he sent a report to Chen Fei that the devil had lost more than 300 people, but the sixth regiment had already sacrificed more than 700 soldiers, not including nearly 200 villagers from nearby villages, these villagers were no worse than the soldiers of the sixth regiment, clever and brave, and what was more valuable was that they were not afraid of death, if there were no these villagers, I am afraid that the devils would have rushed into the position of the sixth regiment long ago, and now I am afraid that the heavy artillery has also been discovered and destroyed by the devils.
What impressed He Wenbing was that the devils were in groups of three or five, attacking separately, without fear, one of the groups of five people actually rushed into the position of the sixth regiment, if it were not for the desperate resistance of the third battalion and the second company of the sixth regiment, and finally drove the devil group of five out of the position at the cost of 38 people, just out of the position.
But now that the location of the heavy artillery is fired, it will soon be discovered by the devils, and it is time for the two sides to see each other, He Wenbin is afraid that the heavy artillery will be killed by the devils if it does not move, and he is afraid that he will be blocked by the devils on the way to transfer, so he is very conflicted.
But now that the order has been issued, it's hard to change it, so I can only do it head-on.
"Boom Boom Boom~" The huge sound of artillery bombardment spread near Batu Village, because it was night, the 150mm heavy cannon fired tongues of fire, but it appeared and disappeared in mid-air, coupled with a huge tearing sound. It was terrifying, as soon as the heavy artillery sounded, the devil's attack came, and there were gunfire everywhere.
He Wenbin is also strange that such a lone army of 1,000 people has been fighting for so long, and there is so enough ammunition to listen to the sound of gunfire.
In fact, this devil is also the end of the crossbow, ammunition, personnel losses are a lot, but their task is to destroy the heavy artillery, if not found by the villagers, the sneak attack would have been successful, and now such a fierce battle makes a lot of them think, not to mention that the paratroopers belong to the strange soldiers, how can there be a strange soldier in the battle so far, can only fight to the end.
The devil's base camp has long been counted until there is an enemy to block the attack, but it is not calculated that the local villagers are so powerful, not afraid of life and death, holding a shotgun and a long knife to fight with the devil's elite.
This belongs to the Tujia family, the villagers mostly hunt and fish for a living, and know everything about the grass and trees in this vicinity, and the night attack is the strength of the devils, but as soon as the local villagers join, they become equal, and the infiltration of the devils is useless, and they often fall into the traps set by the locals as soon as they resist.
For a time, the gunfire and explosions in front of the position of the Sixth Regiment were extremely intense, and the flames caused by the explosions shone brightly in the position.
He Wenbin looked at the trench in front of him and thought to himself, this is probably the devil's last blow.
Chen Fei's headquarters in the rear of Miaocun.
"Divisional Commander!" Chen Fang ran into Chen Fei's headquarters in a hurry.
"Lightly, Madame just fell asleep." Chen Fei said.
"Oh, division commander, the heavy artillery supported the Eighteenth Army just now, General Peng Shan called to thank you, the Eighteenth Army has blown up the wooden bridge of the devil, but the devil is stepping up to rebuild." Chen Fang said.
Chen Fei nodded and said, "Got it, where are the 198th and 200th divisions now, do you know?" ”
"I don't know, I can't contact you for the time being, I should be on a rapid march." Chen Fang said.
Chen Fei nodded, and Chen Fang went out without being instructed by the division commander.
And Chen Fei looked at the defensive circle on the table, although there was good news, he didn't dare to relax for a moment, after all, there were still devils who had escaped, maybe thinking about how to kill them back.
At that time, Chen Fei was so confused that Liu Xiaomei personally ran over and said: "Division commander, the old steamed bun chief has arrived in Xudu, he called to say that the epidemic in Sanhe Town has been controlled, and the reconnaissance battalion and Dr. Sun have all withdrawn to Xudu." ”
"Okay, it's good for the old steamed bun to come back, call back, the troops fought a bloody battle with the Japanese invaders in the area of Miaocun, and the loss of troops is serious, let's start recruiting soldiers again." Chen Fei said.
"Yes!" Liu Xiaomei replied that she would call back immediately.
Chen Fei smiled bitterly, he had to recruit troops again, it was really a battle and a move, how many young people followed him on the blood-stained battlefield, even he couldn't remember.
"Divisional Commander!" Sanmao sneaked in and said softly.
"Something?" Chen Fei glanced at Sanmao and said.
"Oh, the remnants of the devil are found nearby, estimated to be more than a thousand people, what should I do?" Sanmao Road.
"What did they do?" Chen Fei said.
"No, just staring not far ahead, division commander, if you want to him, there will be more than a thousand people." Sanmao Road.
"Forget it, wait for dawn. We can't afford to toss anymore, it is estimated that the two reinforced divisions will arrive at dawn, let them solve it. Chen Fei said.
"Yes!" Sanmao replied.
"Damn, the devil is also hard, how did he get together again in a short time, although he also died a lot, but he didn't seem to be afraid at all." Wang Liang gritted his teeth and said.
"The devil is indeed stronger than us, this is not a little stronger, but too much, and when the devil is driven out in the future, we must catch up, otherwise there will never be a day." Chen Fei said softly.
Wang Liang and Sanmao both nodded, indicating that the division commander was right.
Chen Fei looked at his watch, it was almost four o'clock, not far from dawn, the summer sun is always the most industrious, and the morning is always the most comfortable time of the day.
And for the independent division, the night passed too tightly, and now is indeed the most exhausting time.
"Sanmao instructed, all of them were vigilant to prevent sneak attacks by devils, heavy machine guns were on duty, and a shuttle was fired every twenty minutes." Chen Fei said.
"Yes!" Sanmao replied and immediately went to inform the regiments to take the ring.
The reconnaissance battalion of the watermelon was not there, and Sanmao's guard battalion became a reconnaissance unit, Sanmao was clever and brave, much stronger than the bison, which made Chen Fei very relieved.
And in Batu Village, the fight was even more intense at this time.
Huang Shuitu rushed into He Wenbin's headquarters and shouted: "Chief of Staff, the shelling is complete, but there are devils on all sides, how can you act?" ”
He Wenbin also felt very helpless at this time, he didn't expect the devil to be so powerful, and the sound of artillery together sealed the way out of the artillery regiment, it seems that the idea of preparing to fight and transfer is now a little difficult.
"Damn, a regiment can't defeat hundreds of devils, it's really a wretch." He Wenbin gritted his teeth and scolded.
"Commander Huang, it's almost dawn this day, but the devil orders the troops to hold their positions, and the heavy artillery is not moved to camouflage first, I don't believe it······" He Wenbin was a little crazy.
"Yes!" Huang Shuitu shouted back, since he came to the independent division, he has followed Chief of Staff He, he has always believed in He Wenbin, just when He Wenbin was a little unable to deal with it, there were strange screams one after another outside. He Wenbin and Huang Shuitu were stunned, and the two ran out of the headquarters to take a look, and by the afterglow of the sky, they saw that the mountains were full of local Tujia people holding various big knives and spears.
"Sir, sir~" The leader of Batu Village ran in and shouted at this time.
"Oh, leader, this is ······" He Wenbin was puzzled.
"These corpses are destined (Tujia curses), I called all the clansmen of Jiuxiang and Eighteen Villages, and I fought hard with these devils." The leader yelled.
"Ah, is it? The correspondent went to tell the head of the road that he couldn't let go of a devil. He Wenbin said happily now.
"Yes!" The correspondent shouted and immediately reported.
"Thank you, thank you, Chief!" He Wenbin grabbed the leader's hand and said happily.
"These corpses have killed more than 100 of our clansmen, and this blood debt must be repaid." The leader said.
At this time, the devil paratroopers quickly contracted, and 300 meters in front of the position of the Sixth Regiment, an abandoned river channel formed a circular defensive position. Lu Ziheng was also happy at this time, so many reinforcements made him a little excited, and immediately shouted: "Attack!" Offensive! ”
The Sixth Regiment and the people of the Tujia family charged against the devil together. When He Wenbin rushed to take a look, he couldn't help but regret it, only to see that the front of the devil's position was densely packed with corpses, including the common people and the six regiments.
"Stop attacking, stop attacking!" He Wenbin shouted.
When the soldiers of the Sixth Regiment heard this, they immediately lay down on the spot, and the people still kept rushing into the devil's fire net with big swords and spears.
"Damn, the road is always fast, mortars, grenadiers are on, and you have to kill the devils in whatever you say." He Wenbin shouted.
"Yes!" The brigade commander replied.
Six regiments of eight mortars, 13 grenadiers suddenly opened fire with all their might.
The battle was brutal, and when the Sixth Regiment and the Tujia people rushed into the devil's trenches, they began to fight bloodily again.
At this time, a red light appeared in the sky, and the sun came out.
Miaocun, Chen Fei's headquarters.
Chen Fei looked at his watch, it was almost six o'clock, he walked out of the command headquarters and stretched.
"Does Wang Liang have smoke?" Chen Fei said.
Wang Liang immediately took out a cigarette and handed it to Chen Fei, and immediately took out a match and lit it for Chen Fei and said, "Master, why don't you go and take a rest." ”
Chen Fei took a puff of cigarette and shook his head, "I'm not sleepy, and I don't know where the reinforcements are?" ”
As soon as Chen Fei's words fell, Liu Xiaomei from the communication office next to him also came out and stretched her waist.
"Does Liu Xiaomei have a telegram from the Military Commission?" Chen Fei said.
"No, Commander." Liu Xiaomei said.
Chen Fei nodded and said, "Everyone has worked hard, ask Lao Zhangtou to make something to eat." ”
"Divisional Commander!" At this time, Chen Fang came out with a telegram slip.
"What's the situation?" Chen Fei said.
"The eighteenth military is electric, and the devil is repairing the bridge again. They couldn't stop us at all and asked us what we could do. Chen Fang said.
"This, this, why do you ask me, ask them to ask the Military Commission to go~ Ask us if we have a fart, we can't protect ourselves." Chen Fei said with a wry smile.
"Then division commander, how can we call back?" Chen Fang said.
"Tell General Peng to report the truth to the Military Commission." Chen Fei said.
"Yes!" Chen Fang replied and immediately went to call back.
"Xiaomei, you go and ask the heavy artillery regiment, what is the situation now." Chen Fei said.
"Yes!" Liu Xiaomei replied that she would also send a report immediately.
"Divisional Commander!" At this time, Tang Bing walked over and said.
"Hmm!" Chen Fei nodded and said.
"The remnants of the enemy in front of me have been eyeing me, I really ······" Tang Bing gritted his teeth and said.
Chen Fei looked at Tang Bing and said, "It's not that you see that the other party is unhappy, but you haven't completely eliminated these devils, and you are unwilling!" ”
Tang Bing scratched his scalp and said, "Damn, I'm unwilling." ”
Chen Fei patted his shoulder and said, "Devils can't be killed, not to mention that these devils are trapped beasts, and sooner or later they will be eliminated." ”
"That was not wiped out by our independent division, we sacrificed so many brothers." Tang Bing gritted his teeth and said.
Chen Fei was stunned for a moment, to be honest, Tang Bing and Sanmao all came to ask, he didn't want to eliminate this group of devils, but how could the devils be so easy to kill, he had an understanding of the truth of killing one thousand enemies and injuring eight hundred, not to mention that the situation of the heavy artillery regiment is unknown now, if the brothers are pulled up again, it will really be all over by then.
Just when Chen Fei wanted to refuse Tang Bing, Liu Xiaomei came over and said: "Division commander, good news, Chief of Staff He has called, the Devil Paratrooper Brigade will be annihilated, and the Heavy Artillery Regiment can support at any time." ”
"What? Annihilation? He Wenbin has a long ability. Tang Bing, tell the artillery scouts to reconnoiter immediately, and Xiaomei informed the heavy artillery regiment to shell thirty minutes later. Chen Fei immediately said.
"Yes, yes." Tang Bing and Liu Xiaomei replied at the same time.
"Wang Liang, inform all regiments to prepare to encircle and annihilate the remnants of the enemy in front of you." Chen Fei said to Wang Liang.
"Yes!" Wang Liang replied and immediately went to inform.
Chen Fei thought to himself, Batu Village kept saying that in the fierce battle at night, how could it be that as soon as dawn, they were all annihilated, and this time they came out to block the enemy, He Wenbin included the sixth regiment, and the heavy artillery regiment had been performing poorly, but this time it was a meritorious service.
