Shannan County is located in the west of Hangzhou, about 40 kilometers away from Hangzhou City, Pingyuan County is located in the southeast of Shannan County, about 70 or 80 kilometers away from Hangzhou, Pingyuan County is the station of the tank regiment.

Ye Feng's plan was very simple, that is, to order the tank regiment to attack, go out of Pingyuan County to directly attack the Japanese Sixth Division outside Hangzhou, attack a large number of little devils outside the defense line in the east of the city, increase the pressure on the Japanese side, and even possibly, enter Shannan County from the defense line in the east of the city and reinforce Shannan County.

Because there are tank regiments attacking the Japanese troops outside the defense line in the east of the city, the pressure on the defense line in the east of the city will be very small, and leaving one battalion to defend is enough, and the three infantry regiments of the independent brigade in Shannan County, in addition to leaving about one battalion in the defense line in the east of the city, most of them can specifically deal with the four infantry brigades, three infantry regiments, plus the guard battalion of the Japanese army attacking Shannan County, and the chances of victory will be much greater.

In addition, the tank regiment attacked the Japanese Sixth Division outside the defense line in the east of the city, and the tank regiment could enter Shannan County for reinforcements at any time.

Ye Feng looked at the map, and the entire battle plan became clearer and clearer in his heart, so Ye Feng began to issue a series of orders;

Order, Milin County Cavalry Battalion, Special Combat Team to reinforce Shannan County;

Ordered, the tank regiment immediately went out of Pingyuan County and attacked the Japanese Sixth Division;

The order was that the 1st Infantry Regiment, 1st Battalion, 2nd Infantry Regiment, 3rd Infantry Regiment, Guard Battalion, and Reconnaissance Company were all dispatched to snipe the Japanese troops attacking Shannan County, and the 1st Infantry Regiment and 3rd Battalion were temporarily stationed in the eastern defense line of the city.

……

Ye Feng issued a series of orders, and as a result, the entire independent brigade headquarters began to get busy, and one after another radio waves were immediately issued from the independent brigade headquarters and sent to all regiments and battalions.

Plains County.

The soldiers of the tank regiment annihilated a field infantry brigade of the Japanese army in the morning, and the soldiers were still immersed in joy.

In the afternoon, an order was sent to the tank regiment, and Sun Yougen, who received the order, immediately looked happy, this is a big battle, the whole regiment went out to attack the sixth division of the Japanese army in Hangzhou.

"Chief of Staff, take a look at this order."

When Chief of Staff Zhou of the Tank Regiment took the order, he couldn't help but get excited, attacking the 6th Division of the Japanese Army, which was so cool and enjoyable.

"Chief of Staff Zhou, immediately issue an order, hurry up and get ready, and the whole regiment will set off in an hour, aiming at Hangzhou!"

At four o'clock in the afternoon, the tank regiment left only a small number of troops left behind, and a total of five battalions were almost all dispatched, three tank battalions, one infantry battalion, and one air defense battalion, a total of 12 or 30 M4 tanks, dozens of armored vehicles, and nearly 200 combat vehicles left Shicaomen Town and headed straight for Hangzhou.

Shannan County.

The four infantry brigades of the Japanese army had already entered the defensive depth of Shannan County, and the nearest Japanese unit to the county seat was less than 10 kilometers away.

At present, the fighters are taking advantage of the terrain to snipe these Japanese troops, after all, the fighters are on the defensive, the Japanese are on the offensive, and the fighters temporarily have an advantage in the terrain.

This time, related to the life and death of the independent brigade, Ye Feng personally came to the front line to cheer up the soldiers, and in the evening, Ye Feng's figure appeared in Dongmenling, northeast of Shannan County.

Dongmenling is less than ten kilometers away from Shannan County, the soldiers of the first infantry regiment and two battalions are fighting with the Japanese army here, Ye Feng is in a trench halfway up the mountain, looking at a large number of Japanese troops under the mountain, more than 1,000 Japanese troops have been fighting with the soldiers for more than an hour, although they were killed by the soldiers one or two hundred, but the ferocity of this group of Japanese soldiers has also been stimulated.

A Japanese soldier, commanding two or three hundred Japanese troops, was attacking the position of the first battalion, and the soldiers of the first battalion were lying in the trenches, holding machine guns, Garand rifles, and even Thomson submachine guns, and were exchanging fire with the attacking Japanese troops.

"Brothers, call me!"

When the soldiers saw Ye Feng's figure, their morale soared, and the first battalion commander shouted and ordered the soldiers to shoot, and suddenly, the fierce shooting sounded.

The Japanese attacked from the back, but the Japanese made good use of the cover of the trees, shooting up the hill while slowly attacking and advancing.

"This is the first time the Japanese have attacked." Ye Feng looked at it for a few minutes and asked about the head of the regiment next to him.

"Report to the brigade, this is the third attack of the Japanese army."

Ye Feng nodded, and then said, "Commander, I brought you a little good thing, and you just need it." ”

Hearing this, the commander of the first infantry regiment said with a smile: "Brigade seat, it is a great encouragement for you to come to the front line to give us, now the morale of the soldiers is high, and they will soon repel the third attack of the little devil, and you also brought me good things, that is really thank you Lu Xie Brigade Seat." ”

Ye Feng smiled slightly, and with a wave of his big hand, more than a dozen soldiers came over carrying four 120mm mortars, Ye Feng pointed at these mortars and said, "Commander of the first regiment, how about these cannons?" ”

Seeing the large-caliber mortars, the regiment commander's eyes lit up, "Brigade seat, you mean to give us these four large-caliber mortars." ”

"Hmm." Ye Feng nodded, pointed to the distance and said, "I saw the temporary headquarters of the little devil in the distance." ”

"Brigade seat, I see, it's just that the temporary headquarters of the little devils is far from here, at least two or two kilometers, and our existing 60-mm mortars are almost out of reach."

"Find me a place, send soldiers to build an artillery position, first knock out the command of the little devils for me, and then bombard the little devils in the distance for me." Ye Feng said.

When the infantry regiment came to block the little devils, they carried 12 60-mm mortars, as well as some shells.

The large army of the little devils is on standby outside the range of the mortars, while the little devils who charge and attack are scattered in formation, and use the cover of trees and terrain, and the soldiers shell the charging little devils again, the effect is greatly reduced, often a shell down, at most one or two little devils will be killed.

Now there are long-range, powerful 120-mm mortars, the situation is very different, in the distance, quite a few little devils are on standby, a large number of them, not scattered, a little farther, about two kilometers from the fighters, apparently the temporary command of the little devils.

Several field tents, even through binoculars, can be vaguely seen, and one of the field tents also has an antenna sticking out of it.

After looking at the situation of the Japanese army, the commander of the first infantry regiment immediately said loudly: "Brigade seat, don't worry, this time we will definitely use these mortars to bombard the Japanese army." ”

After about 20 minutes, the Japanese attack failed again, and the attacking 200 or 300 Japanese soldiers left dozens of corpses and retreated.

Temporary command of the Japanese army.

The captain of the Japanese army was watching the charging Japanese retreat with a straight face, and the three consecutive attacks failed, and the faces of all the Japanese officers were not good-looking, and next to the Japanese captain, several Japanese officers also lowered their heads.

The captain of the Japanese army thought indignantly in his heart that if he had heavy equipment, he would definitely not fight so hard, and under the cover of mountain artillery, the attacking infantry could easily rush to the position of the Chinese army in the middle of the mountain.

However, the Japanese brigade carried almost no heavy equipment, only a few small-caliber mortars and some grenadiers, and the shells it carried were very limited.

Suddenly, there was a sharp whistling sound in the sky, and many Japanese officers wondered, could it be that the soldiers of the Independent Brigade were firing artillery again, and the infantry regiment of the Independent Brigade was equipped with more than a dozen 60mm mortars.

However, at this time of artillery, many Japanese officers were inexplicable, because the attacking devils basically retreated, and the little devils on standby were also outside the range of the 60-mm mortars of the Independent Brigade.

A Japanese soldier Shaozo was even more ready to laugh, the Japanese Shaozo with an infantry squadron had already entered the attack position, densely packed with little devils, at least two hundred, looking like a large area.

However, the Japanese captain was quite experienced, and he had already heard that these whistling sounds were obviously different from the sound made by the previous 60mm mortars, and the Japanese captain thought to himself, could it be a large-caliber mortar.

As soon as he thought of this, the face of the captain of the devil brigade changed drastically, his own troops were too dense, and it would be miserable if it was a large-caliber mortar shelling his troops on standby.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Several shells exploded at the temporary headquarters of the little devils, and although two shells missed slightly, two shells still drilled into the field tent of the little devils, completely blowing up the entire tent, and the little devils in the tent were also killed.

This is a 120-mm mortar shell, and it is very powerful.

The captain of the little devil brigade was also knocked to the ground by the air wave generated by the explosion, and on his back, blood was dripping, and several pieces of shrapnel had been pierced into it.

"Your Excellency Captain, Your Excellency Captain......"

Several little devils who were not killed in the tent next to him, as well as several little devil officers, saw that their captain was seriously injured by the explosion, so they immediately rushed over and shouted sadly around the captain of the devil team.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

There was another violent explosion, this was the second round of shelling by the soldiers, all four shells hit the temporary headquarters of the little devils, almost the entire headquarters of the Japanese army was razed to the ground, several field tents were all blown to pieces, several large pits appeared on the ground, and many Japanese corpses, and even many of them were the corpses of Japanese officers.

The Japanese soldiers, including several Japanese officers, who were shouting around the Japanese captain, were also shattered by the second round of shelling, and the ground was covered with stumps and broken arms.

On the East Gate Ridge.

Now that the sky is not completely dark, Ye Feng still clearly saw that the Japanese headquarters in the distance was blown to pieces, Ye Feng couldn't help but say happily: "Okay, good fight, keep fighting for me." ”

After the four 120-mm mortars razed the Japanese headquarters to the ground, they began to shell the Japanese people, and one shell after another exploded in the Japanese army, killing many Japanese soldiers.

The shelling lasted for more than ten minutes until all the shells were gone.

Ye Feng looked at the sky, the sky was gradually getting dark, with the Japanese command system paralyzed, and at least more than 200 Japanese soldiers were killed in the shelling just now, the area around Dongmenling was finally safe.

Ye Feng looked at his gold watch, and couldn't help but think of the tank regiment, at this time, the tank regiment should have arrived outside Hangzhou, and it may have already exchanged fire with the little devils in Hangzhou.
