Seeing that the eight roads in front of him were forced into a desperate situation, Saburo Ono couldn't help but be ecstatic in his heart. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

When we were in pursuit just now, we found that this group of eight roads had at least twelve light machine guns, as well as two heavy machine guns, according to common sense, this was at least the configuration of one regiment of eight routes.

And this regiment should be the main one.

Thinking about it this way, you can know that the retreat to Shengjigong may also be a regiment.

Didn't the intelligence say it? The 8th route of the attack on the army column was the 2nd and 3rd regiments of the new 1st brigade.

It was found that the resistance of the Eighth Front, which had retreated to the bottom, was very stubborn, and the mortars continued to fire at the attacking Imperial warriors, and the light and heavy machine guns were so happy that they were fired.

The artillery of the Ono Brigade, as soon as they pursued into the valley, were busy setting up their guns, ready to teach this gang a lesson in the dirt eight roads that would run away as soon as they hit it.

Liu Tianshu stood on the top of the mountain, looked at the situation at the bottom of the valley, and found that the pursuing devil army had entered the valley, and only some vigilant troops remained outside, so he immediately sent a signal to attack.

The eight roads, which had been ambushed on the top of the mountains on both sides, were all on the cliffs at this time, and the firing boundaries in front of all the heavy machine gun fire had already been leveled and cleared in advance, and even the mortars with the cooperation of the two battalions had also calculated the firing parameters in advance.

As for the light machine gun, the relative height from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the valley is only about two hundred meters, and the devils at the bottom of the valley are also within range.

As the flares were raised, dense gunfire suddenly rang out on the hills on both sides, and at the same time, shells rained down from the hills towards the attacking devils in the valley.

Ono Saburo heard the sudden sound of gunfire above his head, and couldn't help but raise his head, and immediately found that countless figures appeared on the hills on both sides of the valley, and then the bullets rained down, and the attacking Japanese troops fell into a panic.

At this moment, a deafening explosion suddenly sounded at the mouth of the valley behind him.

When Ono looked back, he saw that the entire valley mouth was enveloped in the smoke of the explosion, and the remains of the soldiers who had been blown away were faintly visible in the smoke.

This explosion is obviously not a shell, could it be that the Eighth Road planted explosives at the mouth of the valley in advance?

This time, Saburo Ono guessed wrong, and what exploded at Taniguchi was not a pre-planted explosive, but a bundle of cluster grenades thrown from the hills on both sides.

In order to block the devil's retreat, Liu Tianshu asked the soldiers of the first and second battalions to tie together the wooden handle grenades, and let the soldiers with strong arms pull the fuse and throw it directly from the mountain.

These grenades fell from the air, and those who shot late exploded in the air before they reached the bottom of the valley, and immediately shrapnel flew in all directions, and the devils at the bottom of the valley below could not dodge at all, and were hit by shrapnel and covered in blood, and the wails resounded throughout the valley.

Seeing his soldiers fall in a pool of blood one by one, Ono Saburo's eyes were dripping with blood, he never dreamed that the heroic and fearless soldiers of the empire would one day fall into such a situation to be slaughtered.

What made Ono Saburo even more angry was that the Eighth Route Army that attacked him was all on the hills on both sides, even if his soldiers were brave and good at fighting, it was impossible to climb this cliff, and the counterattack of his own soldiers had no effect at all. As for the artillery, it was even more numerous to hit the hill on top of the cliff.

Seeing that the devil seemed to be in front of his eyelids, he couldn't hide his figure at all, so he could only let himself shoot and kill, and the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army on the mountain felt unprecedented pleasure.

This feeling of killing the enemy is really refreshing.

Many soldiers lay on the top of the hill, unhurriedly aimed at the devil and fired, and saw with their own eyes that the devil soldier was beaten by himself and lay on the ground, never moving again.

The two battalions of the second regiment were arranged on both sides, and as a result, there were no dead spots in the valley, and no matter where the devils hid, they could not escape being shot on the hill.

Less than fifteen minutes after the battle began, Ono found that of his three squadrons, less than half of the soldiers who could fight alive, and the remaining more than 100 people, frightened by the terrifying blow of the Eighth Route Army, began to hug themselves and desperately retreat towards Taniguchi.

Han Fangping saw that the devils were beaten by the fire on the mountain and had no power to fight back, so they could only scream and fall down one by one, and the feeling of joy in his heart was indescribable.

After discovering that the devil had begun to retreat, he seized the time and commanded the troops to press forward from the bottom.

Ono's brigade only has one squadron of troops left, which no longer poses a major threat to his second battalion, and besides, there are still two regiments on the hills on both sides to suppress firepower, and it will be a little longer to attack at this time.

Seeing that Yachi in the valley was charging at him, and the sound of explosions was still loud at the mouth of the valley, it was impossible for Ono to lead his troops to withdraw from the valley until the threat on the hill was resolved.

After the soldiers around him fell one by one screaming, Konoshi's heart rose to the ground, he knew that the time had come to be loyal to the emperor.

"Warriors of the Empire, the time has come to be loyal to the Emperor, all of them, follow me to kill all the pigs." Ono let out a wolf-like cry, drew his command knife with a snort, and asked the remaining soldiers and officers to pick up the bayonet-mounted infantry, and turned to meet the three regiments and two battalions that rushed up tragically.

Han Fangping saw that the devil was dying and wanted to compete with himself in martial arts, so he couldn't help but smile contemptuously, shouted a bayonet, and the soldiers of the second battalion around him immediately loaded the bayonet on the gun, and stared at the opponent with a pair of hateful eyes.

Just when the officers and soldiers of the two sides were preparing for a tragic white-knuckle battle, a few shells suddenly flew from the mountain, and they fell directly into the formation where the devils gathered, and immediately raised a few waves, carrying more than a dozen corpses with them.

At the same time as the explosion sounded, the heavy machine gun bullets on the hill began to strafe back and forth in the devil formation, beating the team that Ono had finally gathered to pieces, and even the **** with Ono was also hit with two bullets.

He felt a pain in his body, and when he looked down, two bullets fired diagonally, making his **** red.

"Despicable Chinans, cowards." Ono muttered a few words, tilted his body, and slowly fell down with unwillingness.

Han Fangping didn't expect that the second regiment on the hill would not give him a chance to compete fairly with the devil, and suddenly looked at the mountain with some dissatisfaction.

It's just that the bullets on the hill rained down, and the shells kept flying towards the fleeing devils, so he didn't dare to command the second battalion to rush forward.

Until the attack on the hill stopped, Han Fangping saw the corpses of devils everywhere through the bottom of the smoked valley, and the miserable cries of the wounded soldiers of the devils, he had to order the second battalion to quickly clean up the battlefield and eliminate the remnants of the enemy.

After Liu Tianshu saw that the Ono Brigade in the valley was wiped out, he immediately commanded the 1st and 2nd Battalions to evacuate quickly, and they ran down the hill from the other side and began to run towards the southwest side of Hulu Mountain.

Sakai rushed to a hill behind Hulu Mountain with the troops directly under the brigade, and was suddenly surprised to receive a telegram from Ono's brigade that it had been violently attacked by the Eighth Route Army in the valley.

You must know that after he asked the Ono Brigade to rush down Hulu Mountain to pursue, there were no field troops on his side except for the troops directly under the brigade. Now the Ono Brigade is in trouble, and the Sasaki Brigade is on the eastern side of the Hulu Mountain, and as for the Shengji Ridge to the north, the Fujino Flower Brigade and the Kaga Brigade are attacking the Eight Roads there.

He had nothing to do but ask Sasaki to pick him up.

Just as he was about to order Sasaki's brigade to go to the rescue of Ono's brigade, gunshots rang out near his brigade headquarters, and after a while, a staff officer came to report that the Eighth Route Army had been found near the brigade command post.

Just now, there was an exchange of fire between the guard unit and a small unit of the Eighth Route Army, and eight soldiers of the guard unit were killed.

The target of the Eight Roads is its own command post? Sakai was momentarily puzzled.

The Eighth Route that attacked the military column was only about 3,000 men in two regiments at most, and one part was surrounded by himself at Shengji Ridge, and another part was ambushed by the Ono Brigade in the valley to the east, and now there are also Eight Roads around his own command post.

How many eight-way are there? Could it be that the intelligence services are incorrect?

As the brigade commander, he naturally can't help but take his safety to heart, you know, if a brigade commander is killed by the Eighth Road, it will definitely be a big news that shocks the empire.

Thinking of this, he had to order the Sasaki Brigade, which was originally preparing to rescue the Ono Brigade, to give up reinforcements and move closer to Hulu Mountain, and at the same time ordered the Fujino Flower Brigade to give up the attack on Shengji Ridge and immediately rush in the direction of Hulu Mountain.

As for the Kaga Brigade, it is still necessary to block the Eighth Route of Shengji Ridge, and has prevented the Eighth Route from turning back and chasing towards Hulu Mountain.

Saburo Ono's telegram to Sakai from the communications corps before deciding to serve the emperor finally made Sakai aware of what had happened to Ono's brigade.

Hachiro placed his troops on the hills on both sides of the valley, and then lured Ono Saburo into the valley, so that he condescendingly launched artillery bombardment and shooting, and finally caused the entire Ono brigade to be shattered in that unknown valley.

After reading the message, Sakai immediately understood that this group of Hachiro was not just bent on reinforcing Eizan, but was making full use of the terrain to fight the imperial army.

Judging from what happened to Ono Saburo's brigade, the firepower of this group of eight roads is terrifying, and it seems that the weapons and ammunition that were robbed by the eight roads have been used by these eight roads.

I only have three brigades in my hands, and if I use them again, I am afraid that I will be defeated again.

Sakai pondered bitterly for a long time in the command post, and finally sent a telegram to Commander Odaka Kamezo requesting tactical guidance.

When Otaka Kamezo received a telegram and saw that the Sakai Brigade had fallen into a bitter battle with the Eighth Route in Hulu Mountain, and had also lost a full brigade, he couldn't help but gasp.

It's not terrible to lose a full brigade, but it's terrible that the Eighth Road ate a brigade of him, and it didn't take more than an hour, such a fast speed, in addition to being described as terrifying, I really don't know what to use?

After Otaka Kamezo glanced at the map on the table again, he had to admit that it was indeed a bit rash to let a brigade of Sakai go deep into the mountains of northern Lubei alone.

In desperation, Odaka Kamizo had to give a painful order to Sakai to lead his troops to withdraw from the mountains and give up the encirclement and suppression of Liu Tianshu of the Eighth Route Army.
