Chapter 138: The Attack and Defense of Yaque Mountain (19)
Although Kimura Nakasa was reached in the wing team department, but the wing captain has not ordered him to disembowel, this is already the greatest gift to himself, you must know that the first battle lost all the equipment of the two mountain artillery squadrons, even the wing commander could not explain to General Hata Shigeichi, after replenishing a large number of supplementary troops, Kimura Nakasa led his own brigade, followed by the wing headquarters to strengthen his own mountain artillery squadron, today he must use his military exploits to prove his bravery, a wave of capture of the outer positions of Yaque Mountain, disrupting the deployment of the Chinese army, so that the main forces of the 106th Division and the Potian detachment could encircle and annihilate the Chinese Army in this area......
Kimura Nakasa was followed not only by the main force of the Japanese infantry brigade of more than 1,000 men in the division, but also by a mountain artillery squadron, and even the mountain artillery squadron carried a large number of poison gas bombs......
"Yaga, damn the Shina people, I hope they are not so cowardly, and they can be brave enough to stain my saber with enough blood;" Kimura cursed as he held the command knife,
"Your Excellency Zhongzuo, on the left side of Yaque Mountain in front, the scouts reported that they had found the position of the Zhina Army on the mountain beam in front, with the blue sky and white sun flag fluttering on it!" The staff officer of the brigade is reporting to Kimura Nakasa,
"Yo Si! Damn the Shina hasn't left yet! ordered the troops to advance another 500 meters and then rest on the spot to replenish food and water; Today I will launch a wave attack with heroic warriors, never give the opposite side of the Chinese people time to kick, and break through the opposite position in the shortest possible time! Kimura Snow was ashamed and gave the order viciously,
"Hello!" The herald gave the order loudly, and the pace of the Japanese advance was significantly accelerated......
"Battalion commander, the devil is here; It looks like there is a brigade, accompanied by Japanese artillery! "The forward observation post sent by the engineer battalion has returned,
"Got it, keep probing, we should be able to top two waves with one brigade. According to the beating nature of the Japanese, they should not come up and devote all their forces to attack. At most two squadrons of attacks, we should not have much of a problem blocking them. Battalion commander Tan Zhenbin said,
Tan Zhenbin picked up the phone and shook it violently, and the telephone lines of each unit were directly connected to Zhao Xitian's division headquarters.
"This is the headquarters of the Third Division!" The division headquarters communications corps immediately picked up the phone,
"I'm Tan Zhenbin of the engineer battalion, give me the division commander!" Tan Zhenbin said on the phone,
"Tan Zhenbin, I'm Zhao Xitian, what's the situation?" Division Commander Zhao Xitian picked up the phone and asked,
"Division commander, there is a brigade of Japanese devils on the opposite side of us, accompanied by infantry, and it is estimated that there will be half an hour at most before the fire will be fired." Tan Zhenbin reported,
"Can you hold it?" Zhao Xitian asked,
"Division commander, it's not a big problem to hold two waves, but I'm afraid it's very mysterious if the Japanese press the attack with all their might! However, division commander, our unit will never retreat without authorization, and will definitely block the Japanese devils here. Tan Zhenbin assured,
"Okay, report the situation immediately!" Zhao Xitian put down the phone,
Nakamura received a report from the scouts that a spy from the Chinese army had been found on the mountain beam not far ahead, and Nakamura said unconcernedly,
"Gentlemen, this time we are going to sweep away the blockers in front of us with the power of thunder; Don't worry about the spies, we're not sneak attacks! ”
Half an hour later, the Japanese were almost resting, and under Nakamura's order, they all began to line up and prepare to advance......
"The mountain artillery squadron prepared for half an hour of artillery fire, and destroyed the fortifications of only that man with artillery fire." The Japanese Kimura Brigade stopped at a distance of 800 meters from the mountain beam, the artillery began to set up artillery positions, and the infantry began to assemble, preparing to wait for the artillery to start bombardment before moving forward to the position where the attack was launched 400 meters......
"Boom, boom, boom!"
The devil's 75mm mountain artillery began to be test-fired, and the shells accurately landed on the hill of the engineer battalion's position, and some of the brothers in the engineer battalion were squatting in the trenches, and some had already entered the anti-artillery holes, and they all knew the devil's beating nature, and they would not start the attack without a shell attack for a while before they attacked......
"Boom, boom, boom, boom......"
The continuous artillery bombardment came, and the four mountain guns of the devil's mountain artillery squadron began to roar, and the earth-shaking cannon sounded, and when I looked out of the trenches, I found that countless flashes of light were lit up from the distant horizon, and the shells poured down like raindrops, and a terrible red wave was set off on the small mountain beam......
"First squadron, rush up and take down the position of the Zhina, remember, leave no mouth alive!"
Kimura Ichiro ordered a captain officer next to him with a gloomy face, he wanted to teach these Chinese soldiers who didn't know how alive or dead they were, and let them know that the Great Japanese Imperial Army was powerful!
"Hey!"
When he raised his head again and looked at the mountain beam with the broken flag, his face was full of crazy hideous colors.
"Huh! The warriors of the Emperor of Japan, under such artillery fire, I am afraid that there are not many living creatures left on the opposite mountain beam! Rush up with me to pick up the merits! The devil captain shouted to his subordinates,
"Kill, give!" Captain Devil drew his command knife and ordered the soldiers to move forward into the position where the attack was launched......
"Knock, knock, knock" As the Japanese mountain artillery squadron fired, the Japanese mortars also joined in, and as soon as these small steel guns with a fast rate of fire joined, Xiaoshan Liangshan directly opened the pot......
The constant shelling of mountain artillery and mortars was staggering, the scorching shells seemed to boil the air, and the whistling shells made people's scalps tingle.
The small hill beams that became the target of this artillery attack were blown up like shredded paper, and all the cover of the small hill beams was torn to pieces......
The devil's artillery fire continued, and the soil was first yellow, then brown, and finally charred black, and in the violent explosion, the muddy smoke and dust filled the air.
"Cough, cough, cough......" The brothers of the engineer battalion coughed violently in the trenches and anti-artillery holes, and a large amount of smoke and dust entered their lungs, and they could not hold back......
"little devil, did we his ancestors? Or did the little devil eat explosives? So bombarded us? The veteran of the engineer battalion looked at the tumbling air waves, squatted in the trench and said to the battalion commander,
"You ask me, who do I ask? Let him boom! 75mm caliber mountain artillery bombardment, as long as the shells do not fall into the trenches, our fortifications are still fine. Tan Zhenbin said calmly,
"Boom"
A mountain artillery shell fell into the trench, and several brothers crouching next to it were directly shaken out of the trench in the blast......
"Old Gazi!" A veteran soldier next to him shouted, and immediately climbed into the trench, ready to go outside and drag his brother back......
"You give me down, you don't want to die? Go out and find death at this time? The veteran squad next to him angrily dragged the veteran by the leg and pressed the veteran in the trench......
"Boom, boom, boom!"
With the last few explosions, the Japanese mountain artillery finally finished venting its anger, and the air gradually fell silent......
"Little Liuzi, put up the banner for me; How can there be no military flag? Tan Zhenbin watched the flag standing on the position destroyed by artillery fire, and immediately ordered loudly,
"Yes, Battalion Commander!" The guards immediately dragged another military flag from the tunnel, carefully threaded it on a bamboo pole, and with the help of several veterans, re-erected it......
