The night was dark, the weather was sultry, and on the Hutou Mountain position, black smoke filled the surroundings, and the smell of gunpowder smoke and blood was mixed together, and this smell was disgusting when it entered the nostrils.

Wearing a gray military uniform and a golden triangle on the collar badge, Sun Weiguo came to the trench with a Type 38 rifle, and he came directly to the forefront position.

In charge of the garrison here was a company cobbled together by the personnel of the Fifth Battalion and the regimental headquarters, and so far this company has only more than 30 people.

The thirty men were smoking cigarettes in the trenches, cursing loudly because they knew very well that death was about to befall them.

There were many corpses under the trenches, and flies swirled around the corpses, and from time to time crows and other birds would come down to eat the corpses.

"The dog baby is from the same village as me, and the ****'s sister is going to marry me, I promised his sister that he will take care of him, but the **** is now killed by a shell, how can I explain to his sister when I go back, how can I explain to his parents, he is the only seedling in the family."

"We're all going to die here, you don't have to think about the future, you don't have to think about anything when you die, can't you see it? The little devils are desperately trying to capture Hutou Mountain, as long as the little devils capture Hutou Mountain, their artillery will be able to directly hit the county seat. ”

"We must hold the Hutou Mountain position, no matter how much it costs, we must hold here, but the division headquarters is in the county seat, and we must not let the little devil artillery hit the county seat. As long as the little devils continue to attack, even if we fight for our lives, we can't let them come up. ”

The soldiers talked a lot, their faces were full of tired expressions, and many of them hung up their colors, but they were simply bandaged and bandaged, and they did not go to the temporary hospital for treatment at all.

When Sun Weiguo came here, the soldiers who were lying in the trenches and smoking immediately snuffed out their cigarette butts, and they looked at Sun Weiguo.

Because it was on the battlefield, they didn't salute, but the little devils still seemed to sense something, and a crooked light machine gun began to shoot.

More than a dozen bullets hit Sun Weiguo, but Sun Weiguo was a cat's waist, and all the bullets hit the trench.

"The little devils look up to me, I just came here, and they gave me a welcome party, and I have to respond to them."

Sun Weiguo squatted in the trench, he looked towards the more than thirty soldiers, and said with a smile.

He moved three or four meters to the left, and after he stopped moving, Sun Weiguo carefully exposed his head.

The Japanese light machine guns had begun to change from the initial burst fire to point fire, and bullets were fired from the chamber and hit the trenches.

Sun Weiguo was holding a Type 38 rifle, he quickly locked the crosshair and was in the flashing Martian place, and then Sun Weiguo quickly pulled the trigger.

The bullet was fired, and the bullet accurately hit the Japanese light machine gun shooter, and then the Japanese light machine gun began to stop firing.

After killing a Japanese light machine gun shooter, Sun Weiguo quickly squatted in the trench, he took out a box of cigarettes and distributed them to the officers and soldiers in the trench.

The officers and soldiers in the trenches were very shocked, they did not expect Sun Weiguo to come here.

Sun Weiguo's position on Hutou Mountain is a secret, and it is currently known that the personnel are limited.

After the soldiers saw Sun Weiguo appear, their morale was high, smoking the cigarettes distributed by Sun Weiguo, the soldiers showed a determined expression on their faces, and at this time they had only one thought in their hearts, that is, they must hold the position of Hutou Mountain.

At two o'clock in the morning, the 109th Wing of the 31st Brigade of the 69th Division of the Japanese Army began to send two squadrons to launch a tentative attack on Hutou Mountain.

That is, at the same time, Liang Weifeng's special service battalion, Jia Leiping's reconnaissance battalion, Kangfei's battle anti-artillery battalion, and Ye Jiangkai's supplementary battalion began to attack, and these four battalions began to attack from the flank of the Japanese 109th Division.

The troops of the 31st Brigade of the Japanese Army were within the range of being attacked, and the troops of the 69th Wing and the 107th Wing of the 31st Brigade were resting, and the battalions directly under the headquarters of the four honorary second divisions quickly began to launch a fierce attack, and the Japanese troops had not yet begun their defenses, they were broken through by tanks and armored vehicles, and after half an hour of fierce fighting, the number of Japanese casualties exceeded one battalion.

As the Japanese began to defend and a large number of Japanese artillery began to support, four battalions of troops immediately began to withdraw from the battle.

At half past three in the morning, the Chinese and Japanese sides finally ceased fighting, and the soldiers on both sides began to rest, but the commanders of both sides did not rest, they were preparing for a new round of attacks.

At the foot of Hutou Mountain, in a small village, this village is currently the headquarters of the 109th Division of the Japanese Army, and most of the troops of the 109th Division of the Japanese Army have set up starting positions and rest areas around this small village.

At this time, it was about to dawn, but the headquarters of the 109th Division of the Japanese Army was brightly lit, and the commander of the Japanese Lieutenant General Division, Anan Yukimasa, and the commander of the 31st Brigade, Major General Tanito Nagahide, and the commander of the 118th Brigade, Major General Honchuan Shozo, were discussing the battle plan.

The North China Front Army asked them to conquer Hutou Mountain before last night, but now it is about to be pushed to dawn on the 23rd, but the position of Hutou Mountain is still firmly in the hands of the Eighth Route Army, which makes Anan Weiji a little anxious, if it is not for the casualties of the troops, Anan Weiji will still let his troops continue to attack.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, at present we have suffered more than 2,000 casualties, and if we continue to fight, our casualties will definitely be even greater, I suggest that we contact the aviation unit after dawn, as long as the aviation unit bombs the Hutou Mountain position, it will be much easier for us to capture the Hutou Mountain position."

The chief of staff of the 109th Division, Kuramoge Shuzo, came to Anan and reported softly, with a solemn expression on his face.

"His Excellency Commander Terauchi Shouichi of the North China Front Army has not completed our request, and at this time we have asked for aviation support, I am afraid that His Excellency the Commander has no way for us to explain, the Hutou Mountain position is still in the hands of the Chinese troops, which is a great shame for our 109th Division. I'm going to launch an onslaught at five o'clock in the morning, and we're going to make progress in this onslaught. ”

Anan Wei looked at Cangmao Zhouzang with a few eyes, and he said in a serious tone.

Terauchi Shouichi asked the troops of the 109th Division and the 26th Division to capture the positions of Hutou Mountain and Siling Mountain by the evening of the 22nd, but so far, the Japanese 109th Division and the 26th Division have not completed their tasks.

"However, Your Excellency Commander, the defense of the Hutou Mountain position is too tight, and we have no way to overcome it at all." Cangmao Zhouzang looked at Anan Wei and said, he felt that if the 109th Division could conquer Hutou Mountain, then the 109th Division would have conquered Hutou Mountain a long time ago.
