Chapter 340: Jin Northwest Battle 40

Sun Weiguo came here accompanied by Major General Tang Chunhua of the Second Theater Commander's Department and Colonel Li of the Third Cavalry Regiment.

As Sun Weiguo and the others came here, the officers and soldiers drew their sabers and put them on their chests, and their eyes also looked towards Sun Weiguo.

"Brother Sun, this is all the officers and soldiers of the Third Cavalry Regiment, the reinforcements sent over this time are the elite of our Jin Sui Army, this is what I won for you, Brother Sun, I am still very good to you."

Looking at the more than 800 cavalry troops, Tang Chunhua showed a slight smug expression on his face, he looked at Sun Weiguo and said lightly.

Sun Weiguo ignored Tang Chunhua's words, he looked at the cavalry officers and soldiers in front of him.

The current Sun Weiguo is not the original Sun Weiguo, after many times of commanding troops to fight, Sun Weiguo not only has rich experience in command and operations, he also has a pair of eyes that can see through people's hearts, as long as anyone is carefully looked at by him, he can know whether this person is a veteran or not.

The third regiment of cavalry was all lined up in the open space, and there was an aura of slaughter here, Sun Weiguo's eyes first looked at the three battalion commanders wearing the rank of major, and he nodded with satisfaction.

His eyes looked at the rest of the officers and soldiers again, and Sun Weiguo saluted them back.

"The Japanese army invaded our rivers and mountains, slaughtered our people, and the great mountains and rivers fell into the hands of the enemy, we have guns in our hands and knives in our waists, why did we let China die at the hands of the Japanese slaves on the three islands. You are both soldiers with me, and it is our duty to defend our home and country, and I hope that you will be able to fight a decisive battle against the Japanese army with the intention of death.

Today, there will be two battalions going deep into Gujiao County to fight, and some of you will die, and I will not hide this from you. If you are afraid of death, you can leave here, but you accept the order, even if you die, you must complete the task, at least you must be worthy of the expectations of the three Jin fathers and elders. ”

Looking at the officers and soldiers of the Third Cavalry Regiment in front of him, Sun Weiguo had a serious expression on his face, and he shouted loudly.

The cavalry looked towards Sun Weiguo, and their faces showed solemn expressions.

They had heard of Sun Weiguo's reputation, and this time they knew that they would go to support Sun Weiguo in the battle, and the cavalry also had expectations in their hearts.

Some officers of the Jin Sui Army have the idea of preserving their strength, but many low-level officers and soldiers also have the heart to serve the country.

Most of them were from Shanxi, and they were equally angry when they saw their homes fall into the hands of the enemy and their relatives slaughtered.

But their commanders did not want to fight the Japanese, they had no choice, they could only carry out the orders of their own commanders.

"Chief Sun, I am the battalion commander of the first battalion of the third cavalry regiment, I am not afraid of death, let alone fighting devils, our battalion is willing to go to Gujiao County."

A major officer jumped off his war horse, he ran to Sun Weiguo, he saluted Sun Weiguo, and said with a serious expression.

"Chief Sun, I am the battalion commander of the third battalion of the third cavalry regiment, and I am also willing to accept the order to go to Gujiao County."

Another major officer also hurriedly came to Sun Weiguo and took the initiative to ask for battle.

The two major officers had a determined expression on their faces, Sun Weiguo looked into their eyes, and he nodded in agreement.

"You are good, you will definitely become the pride of the Jin Sui army, and I also ask you to believe me, my Sun Weiguo will not put you in danger, let alone let you fall into the encirclement of the Japanese army." Sun Weiguo said frankly.

Regiment Commander Li looked coldly at the two major officers, and his eyes were eager to burst into anger.

The two major officers looked at Commander Li's gloomy gaze, but they did not have the slightest fear.

"Sir Sun, as soldiers, we are ready to die on the battlefield." The two majors said in unison.

Sun Weiguo came to them and patted them lightly on the shoulder.

The two major officers and Ge Haifeng of the reconnaissance company were called aside alone, and Sun Weiguo explained to them softly.

Immediately, more than 600 cavalry troops set out from the South City Gate and marched quickly towards Gujiao County.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, the Japanese units began to operate.

Here at the East City Gate, the Japanese gathered five infantry squadrons, and under the cover of two machine gun squadrons, they launched an attack on the third battalion of Sun Ziyuan.

The 3rd Battalion had a fierce battle with Koizumi's Brigade before, and the troops suffered many casualties, Sun Ziyuan began to deploy reserves, and the 1st and 2nd Japanese Battalions began to get into a fierce battle with the 3rd Battalion.

Here at the North City Gate of Loufan County, stationed here is the first battalion of Yin Jin, at present, the first battalion can only fight nearly 300 soldiers, and the three mortars of the fourth company were all destroyed by the Japanese army, but the three Makqin heavy attacks were protected by the soldiers.

Three Makqin heavy machine guns were deployed on the city wall, and the battalion commander Yin Jin held a telescope and looked out of the city.

The Japanese army had taken action here at the North City Gate before, and there were many gaps in the city wall, which added a lot of difficulties to the defense here.

"Battalion Commander Yin, Commander Sun has asked our two squadrons to reinforce you in the battle."

A large number of Japanese troops began to appear outside the North City Gate, and after learning of this, Sun Weiguo sent more than 200 people from the First Squadron and the Second Squadron to the North City Gate to support the operation of the First Battalion.

"Thank you for your hard work, the first squadron will serve as a reserve for the time being, and the second squadron will immediately take over the troops guarding the gap in the city wall." Yoon Kim immediately gave the order.

AS SOON AS YIN JIN'S WORDS FELL, THE JAPANESE ARMY BEGAN TO LAUNCH AN ARTILLERY BOMBARDMENT, AND THE TWELVE 75MM MOUNTAIN GUNS OF THE ARTILLERY BRIGADE CONTINUED TO FIRE SHELLS, AND ONE SHELL AFTER ANOTHER HIT THE NORTH CITY GATE, WHICH WAS THE FOCUS OF THE JAPANESE ATTACK.

The acting wing commander of the 119th Wing, Miura Shiro Nakasa, invested four brigades here, two infantry brigades as the main attack, and the artillery brigade and engineer brigade to cover the attack, and Miura Shirou hoped that these troops would be able to attack the county from here.

The Japanese shelling lasted for half an hour, and then a large number of infantry began to rush towards the gap in the wall.

Light and heavy machine guns and grenadiers on both sides were constantly firing at each other, and people were killed almost every second.

While the north gate was fighting fiercely, the east gate was also engaged in fierce fighting, and the sound of guns and cannons continued to sound.

In the regimental headquarters of the first regiment, Sun Weiguo listened to the report of the communication platoon, he looked at the map, and his face showed a calm expression.

"The direction of the Japanese army's main attack is here at the North City Gate, and they have invested thousands of troops, and according to the intensity of the Japanese army's shooting, the Japanese army has dispatched at least one artillery brigade. The regiment commander, with the deployment of troops at the north city gate, I am afraid it will be difficult to withstand the attack of the Japanese army. ”

Chief of Staff Zhao Lerong had already come to Sun Weiguo's side, and he reported softly.
