The positions of the Japanese mortar brigade had already been reconnoitred by the cavalry battalion, and the three companies of the cavalry battalion were also ready to charge.

THE FOUR TYPE 92 INFANTRY GUNS OF THE MACHINE GUN COMPANY AND THE SIX TYPE 94 75MM MOUNTAIN GUNS OF THE SECOND GUN COMPANY WERE ALSO ERECTED, AND THEY WERE ALREADY IN A COMBAT STATE.

The machine gun company of the cavalry battalion is a reinforced company, equipped with six light machine guns and six infantry guns, but due to the lack of artillery, the machine gun company is currently only equipped with four infantry guns.

The artillery position was set up 1,500 meters behind the mortar position, and the six heavy machine guns of the machine gun company had quietly approached the Japanese artillery position under the leadership of Zhao Wei, deputy battalion commander.

Zhong Jian, the commander of the Independent Regiment, held up the binoculars captured from the devil soldiers, and he looked towards the Japanese artillery position.

Zhong Jian had a solemn expression on his face, and there was a cautious look in his eyes.

Sun Weiguo's command style is bold and fierce in Zhong Jian's view, and what Sun Weiguo does is often terrifying.

When he was still a district squad, Sun Weiguo dared to take the district squad with half of the broadsword and spear weapons to ambush the Japanese infantry squad twice in a row.

This time, an infantry battalion, a cavalry battalion, and an artillery battalion of the newly established independent regiment were used to fight a decisive battle with more than 3,000 puppet troops, but this decision made Zhong Jian's heart beat faster all the time.

However, Sun Weiguo's decisions were often correct, and not once did Sun Weiguo let his troops suffer defeat.

Seeing that the number and equipment of the Japanese troops were significantly reduced, Zhong Jian's calm face couldn't help but smile.

But when he commanded the cavalry battalion to fight, Zhong Jian was still very cautious, he knew that he didn't have the ability of Sun Weiguo.

However, Zhong Jian has an obvious advantage, when he knows that his command ability is not good, he will completely hand over the responsibility of a professional officer.

For example, Sun Weiguo of the independent regiment is the deputy commander, but the military command is absolutely in the hands of Sun Weiguo, not Zhong Jian, the head of the regiment.

This time, Sun Weiguo asked Zhong Jian to command the cavalry battalion, but Zhong Jian listened very carefully to the suggestions of the cavalry battalion officers.

Rows of war horses stood quietly in place, and the officers and men of the cavalry battalion in gray military uniforms had already drawn their sabers.

The officers and men of the cavalry held the reins in their left hand and the saber in their right hand, and they were all radiant, so that ordinary people would be afraid at a glance.

The company commander of the first cavalry company is Lu Ziqi, who was born in the puppet army, but Lu Ziqi is professionally trained.

At this time, the commander of the cavalry battalion, Chen Guitang, gave the first cavalry company the task of attacking the Japanese artillery position under the cover of the second artillery company and the machine gun company, while the second cavalry company and the third cavalry company made a detour to the left and right sides of the Japanese artillery position, waiting for orders to act.

The first company of cavalry had more than 100 men, and they were armed with 90 44-type rifles, 9 MP18 submachine guns, 2 shell guns, and 3 light machine guns.

"Regiment commander, the cannon battery has been deployed, can you attack?"

Battalion Commander Chen Guitang came to Zhong Jian, and he saluted and reported, his face full of serious expressions.

"Attack." Zhong Jian raised the telescope in his hand, and he immediately gave the order.

With Zhong Jian's order, four infantry guns and six mountain guns quickly began to fire.

One after another, the shells attacked the Japanese mortar positions without warning, and this time the Japanese artillery was completely blinded.

They were firing shells at the position of the Independent Regiment in Chengguan Town, but the shells were coming from behind them.

The Japanese artillery was killed dozens of people on the spot, and the other Japanese artillerymen quickly hidden, and they hurriedly turned their guns to prepare for a counterattack.

Six heavy machine guns also began to fire frantically, and one by one the heavy machine gun bullets accurately hit the Japanese artillery.

The artillerymen who exposed their bodies were hit by bullets, and they fell to the ground with painful faces, and the wounded devil soldiers wailed loudly.

With the fire of the second artillery company and the machine gun company, the Japanese artillery positions fell into confusion, and their shelling of the positions had to stop.

However, at this time, more than 500 puppet army troops and nearly 400 Japanese troops had already launched an attack on the position, and the two sides also began to exchange fire.

The tanks and armored vehicles of the roundabout troops also began to move, and they launched an attack on the flanks of the position.

At this time, Sun Weiguo had already come to the position with the third and sixth platoons, he held a telescope to observe the situation, and heard the sound of artillery coming from the rear of the Japanese army, Sun Weiguo knew that the cavalry battalion had moved.

Yue Wu, the commander of the third platoon, and Wang Tieniu, the leader of the sixth platoon, followed Sun Weiguo, and Sun Weiguo saw that the Japanese troops were preparing to move on the flank of the position.

"Yue Wu, Wang Tieniu, take your troops to attack from the right side, see that this village is not, you go back to this village to hide and set up a position, wait until the Japanese puppet army is defeated and retreat, and give me a hard beating." Sun Weiguo immediately took out the map, he pointed to a very small village on the map, and he gave orders to Yue Wu and Wang Tieniu.

"Yes, Deputy Commander." Yue Wu and Wang Tieniu received the order, and they immediately began to quietly set off from the right side of the position with their troops.

Sun Weiguo put away his binoculars, and he took the deputy battalion commander Chen Yang directly to the front-line position.

The casualties of the front-line troops were very heavy, the first and second platoons suffered heavy casualties, and the machine gun company and the first artillery company also suffered considerable losses.

However, none of these officers and soldiers complained, and when they saw Sun Weiguo coming to the position, the officers and soldiers had a smile on their faces.

Yin Jin, the commander of the first company, Liang Tieniu, who was also the commander of the machine gun company, and Li Jiaxin, the commander of the first artillery company, were immediately summoned together by Sun Weiguo.

"The cavalry battalion has already started in the rear of the Japanese army, this is the final decisive battle between us and the Japanese army, and if you repel this attack of the Japanese puppet army, your task will be completed."

Sun Weiguo looked at the three company commanders, and there was a grateful expression on his face, without them holding their positions, there would not have been a victory in this operation.

The three company commanders were all wounded, and Yin Jin's whole body was covered in coagulated blood, and his face was a little pale.

"Deputy regiment commander, our company can continue to counterattack." Yin Jin said in a calm tone.

Sun Weiguo glanced at the position, and he found that the eyes of the soldiers were all looking at him.

"Okay, when you counterattack, you still fight the main attack." Sun Weiguo said firmly.

The Japanese puppet army was already less than 500 meters away from the position, and more than 100 devil soldiers were less than 200 meters away from the position.

The machine guns, artillery and rifles on the position were fired one after another, and the powerful fire network made it impossible for the devil soldiers to get close at all.

With Sun Weiguo personally coming to the front-line position, the morale of the soldiers became high again, and they used the weapons in their hands to inflict heavy losses on the Japanese puppet army close to the position.
