The Japanese army independently mixed into the Fourth Brigade and all the troops were dispatched, which Yin Jinshan did not expect. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

More than 5,000 devil soldiers plus an ironclad train, these troops are a little difficult for Yin Jinshan to deal with, originally Yin Jinshan commanded the first assault group is a multi-arm unit, and now let Yin Jinshan command these multi-arm troops to fight so many devil soldiers, Yin Jinshan does not have much confidence in his heart.

"The little devil ironclad train doesn't look simple, you can't see the tail at a glance, each carriage has different weapons, Commander Yin, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to fight this Japanese army."

Jia Leiping, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion, looked at Yin Jinshan, and he said with a serious expression.

Yin Jinshan looked at the map, and he immediately made a decision: "According to the original plan, the little devil will come to a wing, let's fight him a wing, and if a brigade comes, he will fight a brigade, if you can't eat this little devil, the honorary fourth regiment is not worthy of the title of the Patriotic Regiment, chief of staff, pass the order, the honorary fourth regiment will organize an officer death squad, I will be the captain, and I will lead the death squad to rush up when it is critical." ā€

The 120th Division was pursued by the troops of the 1st Division and the 114th Division of the Japanese Army in Dai County, and the situation was extremely dangerous.

Sun Weiguo transferred the first assault group to Fuping County, which was Sun Weiguo's high hopes for Yin Jinshan, and he hoped that Yin Jinshan would be able to break this crisis in Fuping County.

The Japanese army dispatched an independent mixed fourth brigade, and the more than 5,000 troops were eaten by Yin Jinshan without confidence, but Yin Jinshan still made a quick decision.

He knew very well that the harm of using troops was the greatest, so Yin Jinshan did not hesitate at all, and he made a decision to fight the Japanese army and mix it into the fourth brigade independently.

At half past ten o'clock in the morning of September 25, the Japanese ironclad train traveled to the station of Tianshengqiao Town, where the Japanese troops began to take a short rest.

At the same time, the troops of the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Army, which were independently mixed with the ironclad train, were still on the move, and they were at a distance from the ironclad train.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, this is a rice ball that has just been prepared, please enjoy, the 11th Independent Infantry Brigade has begun to rest nearby, and the other four Independent Infantry Brigades are rapidly marching here, they will arrive here at eleven o'clock at the latest, and once they arrive here, we can start a sweep in the vicinity."

Chief of Staff Nakasa, who was independently mixed into the 4th Brigade, came to Kaoru Kawamura, and he looked at Kaoru Kawamura with a serious expression.

Kaoru Kawamura nodded in satisfaction when he heard Chief of Staff Nakasa's report, and then he began to enjoy delicious rice balls and canned beef.

In order to allow some Japanese troops to follow the ironclad train, Kaoru Kawamura transferred all the trucks and motorcycles of the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade and the 4th Independent Mixed Brigade, and Kaoru Kawamura mechanized the 11th Independent Infantry Brigade and the Artillery Team, so that these two troops could move together with the ironclad train.

The other four infantry brigades, as well as the engineer team and the communications team, chose to advance on foot, and they naturally distanced themselves from the ironclad train.

Kaoru Kawamura felt that this was beneficial to his own troops, but he didn't know that the 1st Assault Group, which was formed by the elite troops of the 2nd Division, had already begun to fight their ideas.

The 1st Assault Group had set up an ambush position near the town of Tianshengqiao, and they intended to use this ambush position to attract and attack Japanese troops.

However, when the troops of the Jia Leiping reconnaissance battalion began to report the situation, Yin Jinshan immediately summoned the leaders of the Honorary Fourth Regiment and held an emergency combat meeting.

At 10:40 a.m., Yin Jinshan immediately changed his operational deployment.

Yin Jinshan set up a blocking force with a heavy artillery battalion, a combat defense artillery battalion, and the first cavalry battalion, and the blocking force was commanded by deputy regiment commander Chen Zhengwei, who was responsible for containing the Japanese ironclad train and the Japanese infantry in Tianshengqiao Town, and the armored convoy directly under the regimental headquarters of the fourth regiment, the first armored battalion, the mechanized artillery battalion, the mechanized special service battalion, and the mechanized reconnaissance battalion were the sortie troops, and the sortie troops were personally commanded by the regiment commander Yin Jinshan.

The Special Service Battalion and the Reconnaissance Battalion are reinforced with motorcycles, trucks and armored vehicles, which can march quickly, while the 1st Armored Battalion and the Mechanized Artillery Battalion are originally mechanized troops, and their troops are naturally very fast.

As Yin Jinshan's order began to be issued, the various units immediately began to act, and the troops of the 1st Armored Battalion quickly began to operate under the leadership of the battalion commander Xiao Zhiwei.

At 10:55 a.m., the 12th, 13th, 13th, and 15th Infantry Brigades of the Japanese Independent Infantry were attacked by the main force of the 1st Assault Group on the way to Tianshengqiao Town.

Eight 47mm anti-tank guns in the mechanized artillery battalion were the first to concentrate fire on Japanese artillery and heavy machine guns, while eight 105mm howitzers were concentrated on Japanese infantry.

After an artillery attack, 30 Type 89 tanks of the 1st Armored Battalion, a mechanized special service battalion, a mechanized reconnaissance battalion, and dozens of armored vehicles of the armored vehicle directly under the regimental headquarters of the 4th Regiment of Honor began to attack the Japanese infantry.

The infantry brigade of the Japanese independent mixed brigade had only three infantry squadrons and one machine gun squadron, and this machine gun squadron had only four heavy machine guns.

This time, several independent mixed brigades of the Japanese army were to cooperate with various divisions and regiments, and the North China Front troops reinforced an artillery squad for them, with one infantry gun and one anti-tank gun under their jurisdiction.

The four separate infantry battalions had four infantry guns and four anti-tank guns, but these eight guns were hit by eight anti-tank guns of the mechanized artillery battalion at the beginning of the battle.

Eight pieces of artillery were destroyed in an instant, and the Devil soldiers were only able to rely on heavy machine guns and grenadiers to intercept the attack of the armored troops.

However, these heavy machine guns and grenadiers are still subject to anti-tank artillery fire, and the infantry guns and 82mm mortars of the special service battalions and reconnaissance battalions are fired non-stop.

Thirty Type 89 tanks marched in a wedge-shaped formation, followed by dozens of armored vehicles, and a large number of infantry marched behind.

Shells began to fire at the Japanese troops, and light and heavy machine guns on armored vehicles began to strafe.

The little devils became a live target, and in just five minutes, the Japanese army paid the price of hundreds of casualties.

"Hurry up and contact the brigade headquarters, immediately let the ironclad train and artillery team come back, we were hit by the main force of the Eighth Route Army, this must be the Eighth Route Army's honorary second division troops, they have hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles, hurry up and let them reinforce them."

One of the Shaozo captains brandished a saber, and he immediately began to give orders.

The signal soldier began to get in touch with the brigade headquarters through the radio station, and he began to ask for support from the brigade headquarters.
