Although the two regiment commanders were confident when they left, and promised Xiao Bing that the battle would end in an hour at most. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

However, looking at the backs of the two regiment commanders, Xiao Bing was very worried.

Although the two regiments have reached a full strength of more than 2,500 people, Xiao Bing knows very well that the combat effectiveness of the two regiments can now have the five achievements before the war, thank God. After all, among the two regiments, only about 30 percent of the real veterans were veterans, and the rest were either the officers and men of the garrison regiment who had just been incorporated into the unit or the logistics baggage soldiers with the worst combat effectiveness of the 12th Division.

In this case, let them destroy a fully equipped infantry brigade, Xiao Bing's biggest concern was that the casualties of the two regiments were too great.

In less than half an hour, the guard regiment collided with the devil infantry wing that was killing the next village.

Although the captain of the devil wing was shocked that the Liaodong army dared to take the initiative to trouble him, in addition to being shocked, the wing captain also showed an expression full of longing on his face.

Despite the short duration of the exchange of fire, the wing commander was sure that the Liaodong Army blocked in front of him consisted of a regiment.

If you can destroy the Liaodong Army of this regiment yourself, or drag them here, and wait for reinforcements from the surrounding Liaodong Army to come and destroy them. Then he will definitely become a star of the Manchurian Army because of this military exploit.

You must know that in this attack on the Liaodong Army, several brigade commanders have already died on the battlefield.

If he holds a combat exploit that he can show his hand, maybe he will be appreciated by his superiors as soon as he returns to Lushun, and he will be directly promoted from wing commander to brigade commander and become a major general of the Imperial Army.

The wing commander who held this idea did not panic like his subordinates, calmed down as soon as possible, and issued a series of orders to fight a decisive battle with the surrounding Liaodong Army and destroy the Liaodong Army one by one.

The three mortar squadrons accompanying the wing were the first to move, and the eighteen mortars began to fire shells at one of them on the ground.

The shells with a screeching sound, as if they had eyes, accurately smashed into the position of the guard regiment, killing and wounding more than a dozen soldiers of the guard regiment.

You know, this is just a test shot of the devil.

When the devils adjust the mortar firing angle, and the dense shells hit the position, the casualties of the guard regiment will definitely rise in a straight line.

Commander Wang's brows furrowed, and he immediately realized that Xiao Bing's evaluation of the devil's combat effectiveness was not exaggerated at all.

The combat effectiveness of the Japanese army in front of him far exceeded that of the devils he had encountered.

Of course, shock is shock, and Captain Wang did not lose his sense of proportion because of this, but a sneer flashed on his solemn face.

Although Commander Wang was very skeptical of Xiao Bing's judgment of the devil's combat effectiveness at that time, when carrying out the order, Commander Wang did it to the letter. The three mortar companies of the guard regiment plus the four mortar companies that Xiao Bing strengthened for himself, just in terms of quantity, his two mortars stared at the devil and one mortar was more.

Therefore, Commander Wang was not worried about the devil artillery at all.

As soon as their mortar positions were exposed, Regiment Commander Wang ordered the artillery not far away to open fire and destroy the devil's only eighteen mortars at the first time.

In this unequal artillery battle, the three mortar squadrons of the devils did not have time to adjust their muzzles to counterattack, and the violent explosion enveloped all the artillery positions of the devils.

After five rounds of artillery fire in a row, there was no longer a single devil standing in the artillery position.

For the commander of the Japanese wing, the annihilation of the three artillery squadrons was tantamount to a slap in the face.

The chief of staff of the wing next to him frowned, and hurriedly reminded: "There are so many mortars, Your Excellency the wing commander, the total strength of the Liaodong Army around us must be more than one regiment, and one of their regiments is only equipped with half of the artillery at most." ”

"Also, without mortars, we can only fight against the artillery fire of the Liaodong Army in the next battle, whether it is a grenadier or a light or heavy machine gun, we will be targeted by the mortars of the Liaodong Army, and there is no way to exert our power."

The chief of staff said so much, and it can be summed up in one sentence, in the face of the heavy siege of the Liaodong Army, the main force of the wing continues to hold here, and the prospects are worrying.

The wing commander, who lost all the mortars at once, also realized this, and subconsciously wanted to order the troops to take advantage of the fact that the main force of the Liaodong Army had not yet completed the encirclement. Quickly break out and get out of here.

But the co-captain was unwilling.

Before he had a hard fight with the Liaodong Army, the Liaodong Army was frightened to retreat just by artillery fire, and lost all mortars.

When the news reaches the troops, he will definitely become the object of ridicule and ridicule from his colleagues.

Just when the captain hesitated, thinking about whether to return or not.

After solving the mortars that posed the greatest threat to him, Regiment Commander Wang followed and targeted more than 2,000 infantry.

In Commander Wang's opinion, as long as the devil infantry is blown up and they fall into a chaotic situation where the soldiers cannot find the generals and the soldiers cannot be found, the next battle will definitely be much easier.

So, as soon as the devil artillery was finished, seven mortar companies stared at the devil infantry and began to fire shells.

In the violent explosion, the devil infantry was immediately blown up.

Seeing the more and more chaotic subordinates around him, the wing commander subconsciously thought: Now it is not whether he wants to retreat or not, but whether he wants to retreat, and it also depends on whether the surrounding Liaodong Army agrees and whether he can withdraw from the battlefield.

Sure enough, less than half a minute after the fierce artillery bombardment, a large number of Liaodong troops appeared around, armed with rifles, light machine guns, and heavy machine guns, killing themselves from all directions.

"Yaga, we're already surrounded!" The co-captain with a frown subconsciously exclaimed.

The chief of staff next to him frowned and asked, "Whether to fight or break through, please make a decision as soon as possible!" ”

The wing captain didn't answer immediately, but asked with a serious face: "Can you hold on to the spot for two hours?" No, it only takes an hour, and in an hour two brigades will be near us. At that time, the Liaodong Army can only choose to retreat, otherwise it will be counter-surrounded by our reinforcements and fall into a desperate situation of internal and external attacks. ”

The chief of staff thought for a full half minute before replying: "It's difficult? Without mortars, the Liaodong Army can press us with mortars, and there is no chance to fight back? ”

"Although we still have more than 2,000 people, the Liaodong Army also has a lot of troops, as long as they have enough shells to compress us together, just using artillery shells to blow us up to heavy losses, and even the whole army is possible."

The Wing Captain was disappointed for a moment, then a determined expression appeared on his disappointed face, and then ordered decisively.

"Since you can't hold on, then break through and break through in the direction of the main force. Order the Nakamura Brigade to immediately break through to the rear, open a gap in the encirclement, and cover the main force of the wing to rush out. ”

The Japanese army did not talk about the eyes of the head of the guard regiment Wang in every move, and as soon as they showed signs of assembling and breaking through, the head of the regiment shot out two fine lights from his eyes. (To be continued.) )
