It was not Osa Okamoto, the commander of the 13th Wing, who ordered Miyamoto Ichiro to stop the attack, but Lieutenant General Toshio Tani, the commander of the 6th Division. In fact, less than an hour after the exchange of fire between the two sides, Gu Shoufu had already arrived at the headquarters of the 13th Wing.

Lieutenant General Ichiro Tani Toshio's two attacks were all in his eyes, and he said in his heart that Miyamoto Ichiro Shaozo's tactical command ability was very superb, at least the dozen or so captains in the Sixth Division could rarely match it. But the opponent is far more difficult than imagined, so Miyamoto Ichiro Shaozo's two fierce offensives were defused by the Shina defenders, maybe Miyamoto Ichiro Shaozo didn't see it, but Gu Shoufu and the other generals of the Sixth Division who watched the battle saw it clearly, and the Shina troops on the opposite position were not having a good time, and no less than 400 people were carried off the position during the period when they were shooting against the first brigade.

Seeing that the sky was about to get dark, Gu Shoufu said slowly to Miyamoto Ichiro Shaozo, who had rested for a while: "Miyamoto Shaoza, I will give two more complete infantry brigades, and you will organize another attack." At the same time, I will have the field heavy artillery wing provide you with fire support for half an hour, and I will also have an infantry group attack the flank positions of the Chinese troops, and I hope that you will achieve our tactical objectives. ”

Miyamoto Ichiro Shaozo said excitedly: "Hai, Miyamoto will definitely live up to the high expectations of His Excellency the division commander. ”

After the devils retreated, Wang Jian immediately withdrew his troops to the air-raid shelter to rest, and the wounded were immediately sent to the temporary field hospital for treatment, leaving only one platoon of soldiers on the position. It's not that Wang Jian had the foresight to know that the devil was going to attack the position with field heavy artillery, but that he saw that the devil had directly retreated to a kilometer away this time, and the more than 400 remnants of the army had temporarily lost their attack power. In addition, it is getting late, and the devil either does not plan to take his position at all today, or he will be ruthless again. So Wang Jian took this opportunity to let the troops rest and recuperate, so that the soldiers could eat something and drink some water.

When the devils bombarded, Wang Jian and all the officers commanding on the front line were stupid, they thought that the 92-type infantry guns and 75mm mountain artillery field artillery were powerful enough, but they didn't expect that this time the devils would shake the ground as soon as they opened fire, and the fortifications built on the position were like paper paste, and they were destroyed one by one under the bombardment of the devil's field heavy artillery.

This kind of shelling lasted for half an hour, and as soon as the artillery stopped, Wang Jian immediately organized the fourth, fifth, and sixth battalions that had been resting in the rear to enter the position. After entering the position, Wang Jian was stunned, the original complete position was now only a huge foxhole, sandbags flew everywhere, and the company left on the position was only one seriously wounded, most of the soldiers could not even find the corpses, Wang Jian was afraid for a while. If he hadn't seen the opportunity earlier, the three infantry battalions would have been scrapped by now.

The devil's attack began again, this time the devil threw two brigades of troops in the frontal position, and at the same time there was also a brigade of troops in the flank position where there had been no fighting.

Every time the Sixth Division faced the Chinese army since its invasion of China, no matter how strong the opponent was, it would only concentrate its firepower on one point, and as long as one point was broken through, the Chinese army would be routed on all fronts, without the slightest exception, and even when it captured Nanjing, it also adopted such a method.

The original effective method failed in Chahar, a place where only bandits and horse bandits were found, and the key attacks did not break through the frontal position for several hours, and Gu Shoufu had no choice but to send troops to launch a full-line attack.

This time, Ichiro Miyamoto was not as cautious as the previous two times, and as soon as he came up, he asked his soldiers to charge in a group. The group charge of the two brigades was so great that the hillside was densely packed with devils wearing yellow dog skins.

Seeing this formation, Wang Jian couldn't help but be happy, isn't this exactly the result that the commander wants? He immediately adjusted all the light and heavy machine gun grenadiers in his hand, and he planned to give the devil a hard time, and then retreat to the second line of blocking the enemy and continue to block the enemy.

There is nothing to be polite, when the vanguard of the devils was still a hundred meters away from the position, 366 light and heavy machine guns of the 99th Regiment and 40 heavy machine guns of the first battalion of the Fire Support Regiment opened fire at the same time, the scene was quite spectacular, the devils were like a forest ravaged by a tornado, and the casualties were extremely heavy.

But the devil's tenacious will to fight showed its power at this time, under the order of Miyamoto Ichiro, the devils of the two brigades rushed to the broken position of the 99th regiment desperately, and the devil soldiers were strafed down one by one like weeds, but more devils made up for it, and in less than 20 minutes, the devils approached more than 70 meters, and only more than 30 meters away from the position. Wang Jian saw that it was almost over, and immediately asked the battalions to alternately cover and withdraw from the position.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Miyamoto Ichiro Shaozo finally occupied the first line of blocking the enemy in the frontal position, and before Miyamoto Ichiro was happy, the soldiers who pursued the Shina troops came back and reported that there was a position of the Shina army not far ahead, and that the "routed troops" of the Shina had all taken refuge in new positions, and that the soldiers of the Great Empire of a squadron in pursuit were taken by surprise by the Shina troops and suffered heavy casualties. ,

Miyamoto Ichiro Shaozo looked around at the soldiers around him and sighed, knowing that today's attack was over, and it seemed that there was only tomorrow to take revenge.

After counting the remaining soldiers, Miyamoto Ichiro was heartbroken to find that there were more than 2,450 soldiers in his two brigades, and now there were less than 1,000 people left in combat effectiveness, including more than 400 lightly wounded, which means that the casualty rate of his troops in the last charge was more than 75%.

In fact, not only Miyamoto Ichiro was heartbroken for his own losses, Wang Jian was also extremely painful after counting the casualties of the troops, after half a day of fighting, 432 people were killed in the 99th regiment, 236 people were seriously injured, 765 people were slightly injured, and 21 people were missing. In other words, the casualties of the 99th Regiment in this battle exceeded 1,400, which was more than one-fifth of the total strength, but compared to 75% of Miyamoto Ichiro, Wang Jian should have snickered.

In the temporary headquarters, Han Yunhua was silent with the telegram jointly sent by Wang Jian and Wan Guoquan in his hand. In one afternoon, the 99th Regiment and the New 3rd Regiment suffered more than 1,780 casualties, of which 521 were killed and 179 were seriously wounded and disabled. It is estimated that the Japanese casualties will be more than 3,000, of which the death toll should be more than 1,500.

Han Yunhua calculated, plus the more than 3,000 Japanese cavalry troops that were eliminated, that is to say, Gu Shoufu should still have about 10,000 infantry in his hands now, and he himself still has more than 17,000 infantry and three cavalry regiments and three machine gun regiments, and Han Yunhua has more than 1,600 puppet army prisoners in his hands, which means that Han Yunhua has an absolute advantage in terms of strength.

But Han Yunhua knew that he was not Gu Shoufu's opponent yet, because of the infantry of the four brigades dispatched by Gu Shoufu today, only one was the elite infantry of the Sixth Division, and the other three brigades were all drawn from the 11th Brigade of the Imperial Cooperative Army. The 11th Brigade of the Imperial Allied Army was formed in Taiwan, and it was formed with an elite brigade of the Japanese army as the backbone and four-fifths of the pro-Japanese Taiwanese group, plus Taiwan has been occupied by Japan for more than 30 years, so a small number of people are about to forget their ancestors, so the combat effectiveness of the 11th Brigade of the Imperial Allied Army is much stronger than that of the puppet army in China, and it is not inferior to the newly formed third-class division of the Japanese army.

Looking at Han Yunhua's side again, although the Independent 77th Brigade had the upper hand in this battle, the Independent 77th Brigade dispatched the 99th Regiment, which was one of the most combat-effective, and it was the most powerful integrated infantry regiment in the Inner Mongolia Military Region except for the 88th Regiment when there was no division of troops. From this comparison, we can see that in fact, the advantage of the 99th regiment this afternoon was not as big as imagined.

After thinking for a while, Han Yunhua sent a telegram to Wang Jian and Wan Guoquan on the first line of defense, ordering their two regiments to hold out until it gets dark tomorrow, and immediately retreat to the mountains outside Jining to hide and wait for their orders. At the same time, Han Yunhua sent a telegram with the same content to the new Fourth Regiment and the New Sixth Regiment of the second and third lines of defense, ordering the two regiments to use the day tomorrow to build their respective fortifications, preferably to build a few permanent firing points with cement and steel bars, and to dig more air-raid shelters to avoid the devil's field heavy artillery.

Later, Han Yunhua sent a telegram to each of the three special operations teams, asking them to report their positions.

After a while, the three special combat teams sent a reply telegram, and the telegram was very simple: the Feilong special combat team sent "Datong", the Cheetah special combat team sent "Zhuozishan County", and the Eagle special combat team sent "Jining".

After reading their callbacks, Han Yunhua smiled, he knew that the "saber" he had built with his own hands had been completely opened, and now it had become a peerless murder weapon that was invincible and indestructible.

Regarding their respective locations, Han Yunhua sent them new instructions. Han Yunhua ordered the Feilong Special Operations Squadron to wait for an opportunity to sneak attack the Devil's Datong Garrison Headquarters and other important organs and departments, as well as strategic places, and even the company mines controlled by the Japanese consortium tomorrow night, so as to make a big disturbance in Datong City. After the mission was completed, they lurked on the outskirts of Datong and continued to attack the Japanese mines in that area, rescued the Chinese laborers in the mines, and escorted all the laborers to the base area safely. The order received by the Cheetah Special Combat Team was to attack the field hospital set up by the devils in Zhuozishan County at all costs on the night of April 16, the day after tomorrow, and to kill all the military doctors and destroy all the medicines and medical equipment in the field hospital, and if possible, kill all the wounded and sick of the devils who were being treated in the field hospital. After the mission is completed, it will lurk near the battlefield and cooperate with a large army to fight, but it is not allowed to appear in large-scale offensive and defensive battles. The Eagle Special Combat Team received an order with only four words: "Stay on call."
