At the same time as the guard battalion started, all the troops of the eastward advance detachment were launched!

The basis of the first regiment of the eastward advance detachment is the wounded squad during the Tibetan Mountain Temple period, and the later independent battalion.

The basis of the Second Regiment was the fourth, fifth, and sixth battalions that were pulled up when they swept through the Xingxi Mountains, and there were many veterans. Later, after replenishing the first batch of recruits, Xiao Siming broke up the troops and completely reorganized, and the composition of the Second Regiment underwent essential changes.

The basis of the third regiment is a few small armed forces controlled by our party that were reorganized in the Jilu border, and all the soldiers of the Jilu border are all soldiers. Historically, these troops were incorporated into the six detachments of the eastward column of the Eighth Route Army, which were expanded by the 31st detachment, and now due to the appearance of Xiao Siming, they are all incorporated into the third regiment.

After the first regiment commander Qiu Wei, political commissar Zhang Huaide, chief of staff Chen Minghui, and director of the political department Feng Lun led the troops to the battlefield, they set up an ambush in the middle of the ambush position in accordance with Xiao Siming's order.

On the south side of the 1st Regiment is the 2nd Regiment in the direction of Hucun, and on the north side is the position of the 3rd Regiment.

That is, the three regiments were responsible for the elimination of the infantry brigades in front of the Japanese army, the first regiment of the central assault, and the third regiment of the Japanese rearguard units.

No one expected that the Japanese army's rear guard brigade and armored squadron would stop in the area of Majiaqiao!

Carefully planned, preparing to wipe out the main force of the Japanese army's independent mixed fourth brigade in one fell swoop, as a result, an infantry brigade and cavalry team of the Japanese army served as the right flank cover mission, which was relatively far away from the battlefield. The Japanese Guards Brigade and the Armored Squadron did not know what the reason was, but they actually stopped at Majiaqiao, and this did not affect the results of the eastward advance detachment!

Otherwise, with the current powerful firepower of the eastward advance detachment, if the Japanese army's rear guard brigade and armored squadron enter the ambush circle, they will definitely be beaten down as soon as possible!

Together with the signal flares, the platoon commanders of all battalions, companies and companies on the ambush position all shouted the word "hit", and the whole line opened fire!

The main force attacked, and the ferocity of the firepower was beyond people's imagination!

The reason why the Japanese army was so arrogant was that in addition to the fact that there were planes in the sky, warships in the water, tanks and artillery on the ground, their infantry firepower was a major reason.

At this time, in addition to the relatively strong light firepower of the infantry of the elite units of the Central Army, the Jin Sui Army, and the Northeast Army, the average unit could have two or three light machine guns in a company, and heavy machine guns were only available in battalions and regiments, and there was not a single mountain artillery or field artillery in the army or division.

Not to mention other troops, it was the Eighth Route Army, and when it set out on the expedition, there were no mountain artillery or field artillery in the three divisions and six brigades. Then the elite 115th Division, when it was in the flat ambush war, only had a few mortars. Don't even think about heavy firepower like mountain artillery and field artillery.

If there was enough artillery fire, the 115th Division would not be willing to give up the elite of the Red Army who had gone through the 25,000-mile Long March to fight with the little devils with bayonets and exchange their lives for their lives!

As for the little devils, each infantry brigade of the permanent division has a brigade artillery squadron and a machine gun squadron, with six or four infantry guns and twelve heavy machine guns. Each infantry squad had three light machine guns and three grenadiers. The brigade had 36 light machine guns and 36 grenadiers. This firepower intensity far exceeds the firepower of the squadron * infantry regiment, and even far exceeds the firepower of a division.

It is a special division and regiment recruited by the Japanese army to form a reserve group, and the firepower is also the same as that of a permanent division. The only difference is in the cavalry formation. The permanent divisions and regiments are all cavalry wings, and the special divisions are cavalry brigades.

It was only after the implementation of the three-unit system that the heavy firepower of some infantry brigades of newly established divisions and regiments was weakened, and the number of heavy machine guns was reduced to eight or even six.

It is the fourth brigade in front of me, which is said to be a brigade and five infantry brigades, and each infantry brigade is three squadrons, but the heavy firepower has not weakened in the slightest, on the contrary, the artillery team directly under the brigade is a miniature version of the artillery brigade formation, with four mountain guns and eight field guns! With such firepower, if they are allowed to rely on their positions to hold on, let alone the brigades and divisions of ordinary squadrons, they are just an army, can they attack? Let them attack in formation, the same reason, powerful firepower is enough to ensure that the Japanese army is invincible!

It's a pity that tonight, the Japanese army's independent mixed Fourth Brigade encountered the eastward advance detachment of the Eighth Route Army, which had more artillery and a complete range than them, and more heavy machine guns, light machine guns, and grenadiers than them.

Machine guns were strafing, rifles were firing, and the little devil was disabled by the fire of the Eighth Route Army at the first time.

The first regiment faced the Japanese artillery team, engineer team, and baggage team that walked behind the 11th Independent Infantry Brigade. These devils themselves are not field infantry brigades, and they are not equipped with many guns.

According to Xiao Siming's judgment, this position should be the infantry brigade and armored squadron of the Japanese army, but I didn't expect that because the Japanese armored squadron and an infantry brigade temporarily stopped at Majiaqiao, the Japanese army's marching order changed slowly, and the drunk and weak artillery team, engineer team, and baggage team faced the most elite regiment of the eastward advance detachment of the Eighth Route Army!

The sheep meets the wolf, which is the truest portrayal of this scene!

Under the bright headlights, the little devils, gun trucks, rubber cars, and pack horses on the highway are all so clear, just like the miner's lamp shining on the rabbit when hunting at night in later generations!

The first regiment was developed from the original independent battalion of the eastward detachment, and the cadres and soldiers all paid attention to the capture, and when they saw the Japanese army's brigade artillery and baggage team, they immediately became interested, and whether it was machine guns or rifles, they were all aimed at the Japanese soldiers, and no one went to fight the pack horses. Moreover, the grenadiers and infantry guns did not dare to shell, for fear of blowing up the artillery trucks and rubber trucks, leaving no means of transport, and even more afraid of causing the Japanese army's ammunition and gasoline barrels to explode.

The group with the most powerful firepower instantly became the weakest part of the firepower of the entire ambush position. At this moment, the Japanese pack horses on the highway were suddenly frightened, and they galloped away with gun wagons and rubber carts, which made the scene very chaotic at once.

The positions of the 2nd and 3rd regiments were different, with light and heavy machine guns, infantry guns, and grenadiers all speaking, and bullets rained down, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.

Wang Mengren, the commander of the third regiment, was as his name suggested, fighting fiercely and ruthlessly, for fear that the Japanese infantry brigade walking behind the baggage team would go fast and enter the firepower network of the first regiment, and there would be nothing to do with his three regiments! Fortunately, due to the long interval between the Japanese marching columns, the Devil Infantry Brigade walking behind the baggage team was right in front of the ambush position of the three regiments.

After this was over, as soon as the troops started, Wang Meng sent all the correspondents and cadres of the regiment headquarters out, and the orders conveyed were to fight and fight hard, light and heavy machine guns were not allowed to stop, infantry guns and grenadiers were not allowed to stop, and they were aimed at the little devils and hit hard!

The regiment commander is in this style, and all battalions and companies of the three regiments are screaming, and the machine guns are like splashing water, and they are not stingy with bullets, and what they pursue is that the firepower is fierce and dense, and they do not give the little devils the slightest respite!

The Japanese troops who were suddenly attacked, like their vanguard squadrons, were lucky not to die under the first round of firepower, and they immediately lay down, scattered, and shot back.

The captain of the 11th Independent Infantry Brigade of the Japanese Army rode on a war horse, with a large target, and was killed when the Eighth Route Army opened fire suddenly, and blood beads dripped down the horse.

The fate of the captain of the 12th Independent Infantry Brigade of the Japanese Army behind the palace is the same, riding on an ocean horse, the target is so big, it is purely to find a target for the bullets of the Eighth Route Army!

The captain of the group was killed, which did not affect the Japanese soldiers who were lucky enough to be alive to shoot back. However, this is not the position of the guard battalion in Hu Village, but the main battlefield, and the car lights are so dazzling that it is difficult for the little devils to open their eyes, and there is no accuracy in shooting.

What made the remnants of the ghosts scatter was that with the sound of the rumbling motors, a torrent of steel composed of armored battalions and 150 cars rushed over, the lights flashed, the on-board machine guns on tanks and armored vehicles and the machine guns mounted on the cars gurgled and screamed, and the bullets were so dense that they formed a barrage, overwhelmingly spilling towards the little devils.

A little devil fired three shots at the tank, and all the bullets clanged and fell to the ground with armor. This little devil bushido spirit exploded, he straightened up, took out a grenade, knocked lightly on the butt of the gun, raised his hand, and was about to throw it at the tank, dada, a string of machine gun bullets came over, the devil's arm was directly broken, the grenade fell, and a moment later it exploded, blowing up the devil to pieces.

When tanks, armored vehicles, and cars drove onto the road, the road was full of Japanese corpses that had been beaten into hornet's nests by bullets, and there was not a single living person!

Unlike other units of the Eighth Route Army that fought ambushes, in this ambush, the soldiers did not throw grenades, but purely used bullets, grenade grenades, infantry artillery shells and little devils to speak, which was the standard to fully develop firepower and win with firepower!

Under such a powerful firepower attack, it is all false to say that the Japanese army has high individual quality, accurate shooting, and excellent stabbing skills! Because the individual combat quality of the Japanese army is in such an airtight barrage, it is too late to show it.

In this battle, the loneliest and speechless were the artillery regiments.

Since the armored squadron and a brigade of the Japanese army did not get into the ambush circle, the anti-aircraft artillery battalion, mountain artillery, and field artillery of the artillery regiment did not open fire, and they prepared for so long in vain!

There is no way, the Japanese army only has two infantry brigades and brigade artillery teams, engineer teams, and baggage teams, and there is no need to use these artillery, and the battle has already been solved with light firepower!

Xiao Siming did not go on the road to check the battle situation, but immediately ordered the engineer battalion and guard battalion to stay and clean up the battlefield, and the troops immediately turned to the direction of Majiaqiao to meet the infantry brigade and armored squadron of the Japanese army staying at Majiaqiao.
