Chapter 34: The Siege

In a valley a thousand meters to the right of the devil, Zhang Erxiao's independent regiment and the artillery battalion of the 500 brigade lurked. Due to the natural topography, the devils have not found the ** squadron lurking here since they entered this river beach. It was precisely because of this special terrain that Gao Quan assigned his artillery to Zhang Erxiao.

A drop of five or six meters will not have any effect on the firing of the cannon at all. The artillery observers climbed to the edge of the valley floor and had been quietly observing the movements of the devils. Seeing that the devils had gathered to prepare to launch an attack on the woods where the brigade headquarters was located, Zhang Erxiao, who was temporarily a guest artillery observer, immediately ordered the artillery to be fired!

The artillerymen had already taken aim at the position, and as soon as they heard the order, they immediately fired.

As soon as the devils of the Noda Brigade were assembled, the shell hit the head. The devils of the fifteenth brigade had never had such an experience before. When they fought in China in the past, it was all aviation and artillery that ploughed the positions of the squadron, and the fierce warriors of the imperial army rushed up to destroy the city and occupy the positions of the squadron that there were no longer a few people. Otherwise, they would rush into the undefended villages, face the farmers with hoes and poles, and show off their military might as the invincible Imperial Army of Great Japan. The most beautiful thing that Noda Hiroki Shaosa has ever done is that he led his brigade to attack the national capital of China first, and he was also a warrior who killed a whole street. To this day, he and his subordinates are still excited about last year's experience.

Such a brutal treatment of being shelled by the squadron, Noda Shaosa and his loyal and brave subordinates can be said to have never enjoyed it. After this shell, the devil's queue suddenly became scattered.

"Blow the trumpet!" Gao Quan saw that the devil had arrived at the land he had prepared for them, and immediately conveyed the order to the communication soldiers around him. The messenger took out the brass trumpet and put it to his mouth, puffed out his cheeks, and blew vigorously.

As soon as the charge horn sounded, shouts of killing sounded around the fifteenth brigade of devils almost at the same time, and countless squadrons appeared around the devils. Our soldiers shouted and charged at the devils. In the woods, behind the river beaches, there were soldiers of our army everywhere. Countless bullets and shells smashed into the crowd of devils, and hundreds of soldiers quickly approached the devils.

The Noda Brigade was worthy of being one of the most capable brigades of the Third Division, and in such an extremely unfavorable situation, which was clearly surrounded by our regiments and regiments, and fell into an ambush, it still relied on its outstanding military qualities to discharge a circular defensive formation in the shortest possible time. With their excellent individual shooting and superior firepower configuration, the devils stubbornly blocked the attacks from all sides.

Huang Sanpao was the commander of the fourth battalion of the 501st Regiment, and many of the people in his battalion were bandits who had followed him to the grass in Jinjiling. Since being recruited by Gao Quan and participating in the **, Huang Sanpao has been conscientiously doing his own work as an officer, and working hard to change his brothers.

At the beginning, Gao Quan dismantled and mixed the heroes on various hills. Later, it was found that this kind of situation could not actually control the troops in a short period of time, especially when Huang Sanpao and Chang Zhankui became the commanders of the troops with troops, this disadvantage became even more obvious. After realizing the mistake of strategy, Gao Quan quickly adjusted the troops, and each of the mountain bosses who was the commander of the troops transferred enough of the original mountain backbone subordinates to their troops. The bosses have people under them, and they are more able to control the troops more easily. And all of these troops are under the jurisdiction of a few core members of him, and after such a level of management, the combat effectiveness of the troops has been greatly improved compared to before.

Huang Sanpao and these people are all former masters of the village, and their subordinates have led a lot of people, and they are no strangers to leading troops, they just don't understand some rules in the army. The backbone of the fourth battalion of Huang Sanpao is still the old brother on Jinji Mountain, but most of the soldiers are good men recruited from Jigong Mountain. In the first battle of Linyi, the Independent Brigade suffered heavy casualties, and the soldiers in all units suffered a lot of injuries. The 500 heroes who joined the army with Huang Sanpao on Jinji Ridge are not even a hundred people left, and these heroes in southern Henan who have only been enlisted in the army for a short time urgently need a decent battle to run in and temper. Now here's your chance!

From the moment the trumpet sounded, Huang Sanpao led his men to rush out of the hiding place. The little devil killed so many people in Jinjiling, he wants to take revenge! The soldier who joined later needs to go through the baptism of war, and he has to fight! The fighters of the fourth battalion shouted and charged forward. There are obviously many people who have the same idea as Huang Sanpao, and there are battalions and companies of soldiers rushing up on various positions. The bullets of the devils knocked down the soldiers of our army piece by piece, and every step forward, they had to pay a heavy price. The road ahead is all paved with the blood of our soldiers.

In front of it is a naturally formed irregular stone wall more than two feet high, which means that the stone is more prominent. Huang Sanpao immediately commanded the soldiers of the fourth battalion to hide behind the stone wall and launch a confrontation with the devils according to the stone wall. The grenadiers and infantry cannons of the devils often inadvertently knocked our soldiers to the ground in pieces. Huang Sanpao is a bandit leader, not a professional officer who disregards life. The brothers in the camp were not his bargaining chips. No matter what hill these people in the camp are, since they are following him, they are his brothers, and he can't watch these brothers die in such a daze.

"Hit!" Huang Sanpao's eyes were red, just now, after advancing two hundred meters, the distance from where the devil was located was two hundred meters closer, and the four hundred people under him were reduced by more than a hundred! Huang Sanpao commanded people, standing on the stone wall and shooting at the devils, although there were still people who kept falling, at least the speed was not so fast. At that speed just now, it is estimated that when I rushed to the devils, the soldiers of the four battalions were almost dead!

Gao Quan and Wang Dazhu rushed out of the woods, Zhang Erxiao rushed out of the valley, and the artillery battalion was left in the valley. Coupled with Qian Sixi's 501st Regiment, our soldiers have surrounded the devils from three sides. Behind is the river, although the river is not wide, the current is fast, and the water depth is more than two meters, and the way for the devils to wade across the river to escape is also blocked.

The art of war is cloudy: three are missing one. Leaving an escape for your opponent is the way to go. Gao Quan didn't want to leave any way out for these devils. These devils are all from the Third Division, the devils of this division have been to Nanjing, and the devils of this division are all unforgivable! Gao Quan wants to make these devils desperate today, that is, to use superior forces to completely annihilate this group of two-legged beasts.
