Chapter 119 Xiangshan attacked

"Give it to Lao Tzu~"

The 363rd Regiment was far more difficult than the independent battalion, and the artillery battalion had already braved the rain to support Camel Hill, which was full of three squadrons. In order to ensure the attack on Camel Mountain, He Shaozhou transferred the first battalion of the 613th Regiment, the first battalion of the 615th Regiment and the 618th Regiment to attack Camel Mountain together, because the Japanese army had strong firepower and could only wait for the support of the artillery battalion, and the artillery company of the 103rd Division was not as good as Zhang Ziwen's artillery company.

The 363rd Regiment, with the strength of two battalions, took turns to charge the Japanese position, and the casualties were as high as 300 and could not take the position held by a Japanese squad.

Zhang Ziwen only sent someone to investigate the situation of the 363 regiment after killing those devils, Rao Xiangyun looked at Zhang Ziwen's current state, and stood on the side and didn't dare to say a word.

There were a few gunshots outside the devil's tent, and Rao Xiangyun jumped, thinking that the Japanese army had swooped down from the mountain, and ran out to see that the brothers who were cleaning the position on the battlefield had no reaction before retracting into the tent.

"Report to the battalion commander, eight Japanese prisoners tried to escape, and are now killed."

Rao Xiangyun understood, but the stone looked at Ma Xiaobao questioningly.

"I'm fine, you go and see if the brothers who went to the 363rd regiment have come back, the spy company immediately went to the south of Xiangshan to guard after eating to prevent the Japanese army from coming to help. In addition, the health team is asked to find ways to control colds and avoid infectious colds or other diseases. ”

Ma Xiaobao gave Shi and Rao Xiangyun a look, signaled to take good care of Zhang Ziwen, and then turned around to deal with things.

Zhang Ziwen looked at the blood-stained map, the map that the devil wanted to destroy should have a high use value, and after reading it for a long time, he only understood the map of the entire Hubei situation.

Zhang Ziwen could only see the general direction of the Japanese army's march, and he couldn't understand the rest of the rules and regulations at all. One thing he noticed was that a large arrow pointed directly at Tomikeguchi, and under normal circumstances, the larger the sword head, the more Japanese troops there were, which showed that the Japanese army attacked Fujiguchi with more troops than the Hakuda detachment, but at least one brigade.

It is no wonder that the back road of the village was intercepted and the determination to attack Tianjia Town was unwavering, and once Jiangbei was lost, the Jiangnan fortress became a lone army.

The fierce attack on both sides of the Jiangbei and Jiangnan, plus the Jianghai Navy, the devil has a good calculation.

Zhang Ziwen then looked elsewhere, the Japanese army had placed seven divisions at Poyang Lake, and one division was coming towards Huangguang. Looking to the north, the four divisions of the Japanese army rushed from Hefei to the Dabie Mountain, and the line of Fujin Mountain had all fallen.

"Rao Xiangyun, you call the division headquarters according to the map and ask about the overall situation now."

Zhang Ziwen wanted to prevent the situation of Jiangyin's lone army at the beginning, don't become a lone army again, if the devil captures Macheng in a roundabout way, there will be no way to retreat, and whether he can escape will become a big problem. Preserving strength and striking effectively is the correct way to face the Japanese army at present.

The successive heavy rains made cooking a big problem, and it took Lao Wang an hour to cook the porridge, and as soon as Lao Wang sent the porridge to the headquarters, the brothers who went to the 363 regiment arrived.

"Report to the battalion commander, the 363 Regiment attacked in three hours, with about 400 dead and wounded, and the devil's position still hasn't been taken."

Zhang Ziwen put down the bowl and thought to himself, the 636th Regiment was sent to attack Xiangshan, it must be the strongest of the 121st Division, why is it so unbearable, more than 400 dead and wounded can't take a position.

"Has the artillery company eaten?"

The stone couldn't figure it out, so he could only run out and ask, Zhang Ziwen drank the porridge while thinking about the question.

"Battalion commander, the artillery company has already eaten."

"You run again, and order them to set off with me in ten minutes to support the 363rd Regiment."

Zhang Ziwen explained that Ma Xiaobao was optimistic about the position, and at the same time paid attention to the movement of the main position in Xiangshan, the main position of the Japanese army has not moved so far, and he may want to make something bad.

The Xiangshan position is being reinforced, and it has already asked for help from the wing headquarters, but now there is only one idea to hold on and wait for reinforcements, and as for the troops under the mountain, there is only one way to go, to be loyal to the emperor.

The heavy rain continued, and the artillery battalion marched somewhat better than the machine-gun battery. Because the water-cooled Makqin is as high as 49 kilograms, and the Bayi mortar is only 20 kilograms, the 60 mortar is lighter, and the grenadier can be carried by one person. After more than half an hour, Zhang Ziwen took the artillery company back to the side of the 363rd Regiment.

"Artillery support~"

When Zhang Ziwen arrived, the 363rd Regiment was attacking the Japanese army with its life, and the Japanese heavy machine gun swung and the 363rd Regiment could not break through to the position at all. When attacking from the east, if Zhang Ziwen hadn't planned to exercise the ability of the independent battalion to attack fortified positions, he would have eliminated the machine gun long ago.

Sun Liang only set up three Bayi shooting guns, aimed at the Japanese machine guns and fired them directly. The brothers of the 363rd Regiment were charging, and they were frightened by the shells, thinking that the devil artillery had not been destroyed. Sun Liang gave the order of three rapid-fire shots, and the shells smashed into the Japanese position.

With artillery support, the brothers of the 363rd Regiment were not afraid of accidental damage from artillery fire, and directly rushed to the Japanese position. The commander of the first battalion of the 363rd Regiment can finally put his mind at ease now, and if he fights like this again, his brothers will be gone.

The tactics of the 121st Division are still stuck in the idea of filling with life when leaving Guizhou, which is a bit stupid compared to the 103rd Division, which has experienced the teaching brigade.

Sun Liang killed the heavy machine gun, and what remained was the fiercest white-knuckle battle in the battle, the 363rd Regiment did not have a pistol platoon like the independent battalion, and it could only meet with the devil's bayonet.

Zhang Ziwen saw that the 363rd Regiment had broken through to the position, and asked Ma Xiaobao to aim the cannon at the rear of the Japanese position.

"Captain Yamamoto, are we just going to watch the Tenth Squadron fall?"

"Yaga, they are loyal to the emperor."

Harada could only obey the captain's order, and he couldn't bear to watch his own people die, so he led people to continue to strengthen the fortifications.

Until the position completely fell, the remnants of the Japanese army retreated, and the main position of Xiangshan did not move, Zhang Ziwen wondered if Xiangshan was completely gone, but according to the positions on both sides, the main position of Xiangshan was at least more than one squadron of the Japanese army.

The 363rd Regiment captured the position, but Zhang Ziwen did not step forward to attack, gave the military merits to the 363rd Regiment, and directly led people back to the east.

"Regiment commander, the separate battalion is gone."

Wei Xiling could only sigh, lamenting the importance of firepower and Zhang Ziwen's character, and replaced it with someone else, who came to grab credit in the morning.

"Is the 103rd Division putting all its energy on building this independent battalion?"

"Hmph, you think it's you? The people themselves developed step by step, this Zhang Ziwen only retired from Jiangyin to Nanjing, he was the only one who survived in the end of the 103rd Division, and most of the commanders in his battalion also retired together. ”

The 103rd Division was disabled, as a member of the Guizhou Army, I have paid some attention to it, and I also understand that those who survived are veterans, and it is naturally not easy for Zhang Ziwen to survive, not to mention that there are veterans who have experienced the war.

"Then where did he get this artillery, and taking out the salary of a battalion is not enough to form an artillery company."

"Hehe, people bought it with their own money, the six grenadiers that just came from the division headquarters were exchanged by Chief of Staff Zhou with him, you look at the ability of others, six grenadiers, the configuration of a squadron of Japanese troops, can your battalion fight a Japanese squadron?"

Wei Xiling choked all his brothers to death at once, he only hated why he couldn't meet such a cadre, and his combat ability exploded a few streets under his subordinates.
