Chapter 494: Close the Three Doors
Qianhuang'an Village is located in the central area of Dazhai Nu Mountain and Woniu Mountain, which is less than three kilometers away from Donghui Town, which can be described as the gateway of Donghui Town.
According to Sun Weiguo's plan, the fifth company of Huang Gang's second company was stationed in the former Huang'an Village, and when the third brigade of the Japanese army came to Huang'an Village, the fifth company began to carry out defensive operations, and the Chinese and Japanese troops fought fiercely here.
AFTER HALF AN HOUR OF FIERCE FIGHTING, THE FIFTH COMPANY TOOK THE INITIATIVE TO ABANDON THE FORMER HUANG'AN VILLAGE AND QUICKLY WITHDREW TO DONGHUI TOWN, WHILE THE THIRD BRIGADE OF THE JAPANESE ARMY DID NOT MAKE ANY STOP IN THE FORMER HUANG'AN VILLAGE, THEY FOLLOWED THE FIFTH COMPANY BEHIND THE BUTT TO EVACUATE.
Sun Weiguo's plan was to close the door and fight the dogs, the gates on the east and west sides of Dazhai Nuying Mountain and Woniu Mountain had been guarded by the 11th and 10th companies of the 3rd Battalion, and with the 5th Company of the 2nd Battalion taking the initiative to abandon the former Huang'an Village, the gate of the central position began to fall into the hands of the Japanese army, but at present, the 3rd Brigade did not leave any troops to garrison in the former Huang'an Village.
However, the Japanese troops are not fools, although they are arrogant, but the Japanese commanders are all trained by professional military academies, and they also have rich combat experience.
Eiichi is obviously an excellent commander, when he got the report of the third brigade, Ebia immediately realized the importance of the former Huang'an Village, this time he adopted the tactics of breaking through in the middle, and the current third brigade has also made good progress, but this former Huang'an Village has obviously become an important place.
"If the Chinese troops capture the former Huang'an Village, then the third brigade will be cut off from the main force of the wing, you immediately take the wing artillery squadron and the second and third squadrons of your first brigade and the machine gun squadron to the former Huang'an village to garrison, after the third brigade conquers Donghui Town, you cover the main force of the wing to break through from the former Huang'an Village."
After checking the terrain with a telescope, Eiichi Eiichi immediately called the first captain of the reserve team who remained at the wing headquarters to his side, and he immediately gave the order.
The 1st Brigade lost a squadron of infantry in yesterday's operation, so this time they were left in reserve at the wing headquarters.
As the 3rd Brigade broke through the former Huang'an Village, realizing that the former Huang'an Village had a very important strategic location, he immediately began to give orders.
"Hey, Co-Captain." The captain of the first brigade said with a respectful face.
Two infantry squadrons, a wing artillery squadron and a machine gun squadron for the third brigade to fight, and more than 600 devil soldiers began to march towards the former Huang'an Village.
The Japanese troops had a habit of placing long-range artillery next to the command organ to support operations on the front line.
The artillery squadron of the wing, which is assigned to the operation of the third brigade, has set up an artillery position in Mengjiazhang Village, where the wing headquarters is located, and can support the operation of the third brigade here.
Ebi's artillery squadron was dispatched to Qianhuang'an Village, where not only could it directly support the third brigade to attack Donghui Town, but it was also possible to carry out artillery bombardment on Dazhai Nuying Mountain and Woniu Mountain.
The first brigade of the Japanese army began to act, and more than 600 devil soldiers quickly captured the former Huang'an Village, and the devil soldiers began to quickly build fortifications.
And Liu Jingnuma, the commander of the third battalion hidden in the area of Dazhai Nuan Mountain, couldn't help but widen his eyes when he saw this scene.
Because according to Sun Weiguo's plan, the third battalion is responsible for the task of closing the door, they are to hold the three positions of Dazhai Fushan, Qianhuang'an Village, and Woniu Mountain, and cut off the connection between the Japanese troops, while the second battalion of the first regiment, the mobile combat group, the mortar company of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and the first company of the artillery battalion of the 129th Division are responsible for fighting dogs, while the Yongxing detachment of the former detachment leader is serving as a reserve to deal with emergencies.
Now that the Japanese troops have captured the former Huang'an Village, the Japanese Third Brigade has a way back to retreat, and it is obviously impossible for the Second Battle Group to completely annihilate the Third Brigade.
"Battalion commander, what now." The company commander of the ninth company came to Liu Jingnuma, looking at Liu Jingnuma in front of him, and the ninth company commander showed a worried expression on his face.
Sun Weiguo handed over the most difficult task to the third battalion this time, and the three companies held three positions to cut off the connection between the Japanese troops, and Sun Weiguo deployed all the most elite troops of the second battle group near Donghui Town to complete the attack on the Japanese troops.
Sun Weiguo made sense to do this, after all, if the dog-fighting troops were not strong enough to quickly eat the Japanese troops, it would change the entire situation of the war.
Whether the tactics of closing the door and beating the dog can succeed this time depends on whether the third battalion can hold the three gates of Dazhai Fushan, Qianhuang'an Village, and Woniu Mountain.
However, now the Japanese army has captured the gate of the former Huang'an Village, which poses a great threat to the troops of the third battalion, this Japanese army has an artillery squadron, a machine gun squadron, and two infantry squadrons, relying only on the troops of the ninth company of the third battalion, it is not a simple matter to conquer the former Huang'an Village.
At this time, the third brigade had already advanced to Donghui Town, and looking at Donghui Town, which had become a ruin, the Shaozuo captain of the third brigade had a smile on the corner of his mouth.
At a distance of 100 million kilometers from Donghui Town, the 3rd Brigade began to stop advancing, and the 12 Type 92 heavy machine guns of the machine gun squadron began to be erected, and at the same time, the two Type 92 infantry guns of the artillery squad also began to be erected, and the four infantry squadrons were ready for attack.
Captain Shaozo held a telescope and looked towards Donghui Town, and he had a sworn expression on his face.
"The 1st Squadron, the 2nd Squadron quickly attacked, the 3rd Squadron detoured from the right side, the 4th Squadron served as a reserve, and the machine-gun squadron and artillery squad took cover."
Captain Shaozo soon gave the order, and the Japanese troops began to move.
Soon, the Japanese machine-gun positions and artillery positions were set up, and the fortifications had been excavated.
Although Donghui Town is in ruins, the Chinese troops are hidden in the trenches, and near Donghui Town, the mobile combat group troops are hidden and on standby, and they can attack at any time.
A big war is about to begin, and the air is still filled with the smell of gunsmoke.
Shijiazhuang, the headquarters of the First Army of the North China Front.
Kazuki Kiyoji looked at the map with a complicated face, this time the first army took a hard time to take the nine-way siege operation in the southeast of Jin, in the previous battle, the Japanese army obviously had an advantage and made good progress, but now, all the Japanese troops have suffered varying degrees of losses, and several Japanese troops have been blocked, which makes Kazuki Kiyoji very depressed.
