Chapter 878: Huanghua Pagoda Heights

On the night of 21 September, Ge Haifeng's 5th Regiment began to attack the supply units of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army, and three cavalry battalions, one cavalry battalion, one machine gun company, and one armored team began to launch a surprise attack on the Japanese supply troops.

After half an hour of fierce fighting, more than 500 Japanese baggage troops were wiped out, and the troops of the Fifth Regiment of Honor were burned with all the loot they had captured.

With the order issued by Sun Weiguo, the second division of honor, and the commander of the 120th division, the various units participating in the war immediately began to assemble near Dai County, and Sun Weiguo personally went to Hutou Mountain and personally commanded the troops to fight.

The night seemed to be a long time, but for the Chinese and Japanese troops, time was fast, and the sky seemed to become bright in an instant.

The sun was rising, the sun was shining, the darkness was driven away, and the sky was restored to command.

Hutou Mountain is located in the north of Wutai County, south of Doucun Town, which is in the middle of Doucun Town and Wutai County, which is less than nine kilometers away from Wutai County.

Once the Japanese troops captured this place, then the Japanese heavy artillery units could directly launch an artillery bombardment of the county seat of Wutai County.

At present, the main force of the second regiment of honor and the main force of the sixth regiment of honor are all assembled here in Hutou Mountain and Siling Mountain.

The 5th Battalion, 6th Battalion, Mountain Artillery Company, Mortar Company, Field Artillery Company, Heavy Artillery Company, 1st Battalion, 2nd Battalion of the 6th Regiment of the Honorable Regiment are deployed in Hutou Mountain, the 7th Battalion and 8th Battalion of the 2nd Honorary Regiment, the 4th and 5th Battalions of the 6th Regiment of Honor, and the Tiger Company are deployed in Siling Mountain.

Less than four kilometers between Hutou Mountain and Siling Mountain, an infantry regiment and an artillery regiment of the Honor 2nd Regiment and the Honor 6th Regiment were deployed here, just like the two strongest rocks, blocking the Japanese 109th Division and the 26th Division, and it was naturally impossible for the two divisions to break through here.

The Honorary Fourth Regiment, the Honorary Fifth Regiment, the Reconnaissance Battalion, the Special Service Battalion, the Supplementary Battalion, the Battle Defense Artillery Battalion, and the 259th Brigade of the 120th Division immediately entered Dai County, and they will attack the mobile troops deployed by the Japanese army in Dai County, so as to attract the Japanese 109th Division and the 26th Division to come back for reinforcements.

The battle between the northern part of Wutai County and Dai County was about to break out, but at this time, the battle in the southern and western parts of Wutai County was still ongoing.

The troops of the 1st Division of the Japanese Army set out from Yangbai Township to Baijiazhuang Town, and the Fifth Detachment of the 120th Division was responsible for containing them, and the troops of the 114th Division of the Japanese Army set out from Gaohongkou Township to Baijiazhuang Town, and the four county brigades of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region were responsible for containing them.

The troops of the Unknown Regiment and the Honor 1st Regiment also began to send small units to attack the Japanese troops and contain the movements of the Japanese troops.

Huanghua Pagoda is located in the northeast of Sanhe Village, Wutai County, and a county brigade of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region is currently stationed here.

The first squadron has more than 400 people, equipped with six light machine guns, two heavy machine guns, four grenadiers, and more than 300 rifles.

The captain of the county brigade was a veteran of the 115th Division of the Eighth Route Army, but when he was fighting the devil soldiers, he lost a left arm, so he took up a position in the local army.

This time, they were sent to fight with the troops of the Honorary Second Division, and the morale of the officers and soldiers of the county brigade was high, and they all wanted to fight the little devils well.

"Comrades, this time the little devils want to go to Baijiazhuang Town through here, if we let them go, the two divisions of the little devils will be together, I have already contacted the comrades of the first regiment of honor, they ask us to delay the little devils here for forty minutes, and the main force of their regiment will immediately rush to the front to set up an ambush position. Comrades, although it is very likely that a brigade of troops will come, do you have the confidence to hold here for an hour! ”

The captain of the county brigade looked at the soldiers, and a serious expression appeared on his face.

"Captain, we are confident that we will hold for an hour, and now that we have so many weapons and ammunition, there is no problem in holding for an hour."

"That's right, now that we have so many weapons, it's still certain to hold on for an hour, captain, let our squadron play the main attack, we will definitely not let you down."

"As long as the little devil dares to come, we will definitely let them know that it is powerful, isn't the little devil two shoulders and one head?"

"Captain, I heard that the troops of the Honorary Second Division have annihilated a brigade and a garrison of the Japanese army, and they have killed more than 10,000 devil soldiers, is this true?"

"This is true, the second brigade of the Japanese independent mixed army was eaten in Ningwu County, and the independent garrison of the Japanese army was eaten in Baijiazhuang Town, and these two Japanese troops were more than 10,000 people."

"The Honorary Second Division is really amazing, it is our honor to be able to cooperate with them in the battle this time, we also have to play the majesty of the Eighth Route Army, and we must not let the little devils pass through here."

The officers and soldiers of the county brigade have expressed their attitudes, and they have a firm expression on their faces, they want to stick to the Huanghua Pagoda on the high ground!

"Captain, the little devil is here, there are more than fifty people, it should be a small team of little devils." At this moment, a soldier hurriedly ran to the captain, and the soldier hurriedly reported.

After hearing the soldier's report, the captain immediately raised the telescope with his right hand to take a look, and more than fifty devil soldiers began to appear in his telescope.

"Get ready for battle, it's the little devils who are coming." After the captain put down the binoculars, he immediately took out the shell gun and gave the order.

The officers and men immediately began to enter the combat state, and all kinds of weapons began to be aimed at the bottom of the mountain, and the officers and men showed firm expressions on their faces.

Although they were dressed in tattered and different costumes, they had no fear, they held their guns and waited for the arrival of the devil soldiers.

More than fifty devil soldiers had gradually approached the Huanghua Pagoda Heights, and after seeing this height, the devil soldiers immediately became vigilant.

This unit belongs to the 65th Wing of the 127th Brigade of the 114th Division of the Japanese Army, after the Japanese troops began to march towards Baijiazhuang Town from the area of Gaohongkou Township, they began to be attacked by the troops of the Eighth Route Army, so far, the 65th Wing has paid more than 400 casualties, which makes the captain of the 65th Wing Dazuo Wing extremely angry.

So in front of the wing, the captain of the Dazuo Wing sent a reconnaissance team, which was responsible for searching and preventing the ambush of the Eighth Route Army.

"Immediate fire reconnaissance!" The second lieutenant squad leader raised the binoculars, and he immediately began to give orders.
