Chapter 265: The Fall of the Mito's Brigade (8)
Since the Wing Commander sent two brigades to meet him, Mi Fu's attention was focused on the progress of the two receiving troops, and he was relieved to learn that one of the receiving troops had rushed to the southern end of Wildcat Gully under the command of Captain Shan Ye, and started a fierce battle with the blocking Eighth Route Army.

Since escaping to Hutouling, Mi Toma's heart has never been happy.
He didn't expect that there was no water source in a Hutou Ridge, although the woods on the ridge were verdant, and there was a broken temple in between, but because there was no water, the broken temple also looked very ruined, and it was obvious that there was no incense.
After arriving at the ridge, the dissatisfaction in Zhang Deyi's Imperial Cooperative Army began to dissipate, and the faces of many Imperial Cooperative Army soldiers were shrouded in decadent looks, but as for the will to fight, they disappeared without a trace.
Mi Fu saw that the Imperial Association Army had no fighting spirit, so he didn't dare to arrange them to defend on the southern side of Hutou Ling, but let Zhang Deyi take the Imperial Association Army as a reserve behind the first line of defense.
His first line of defense was all defended by the elite Japanese army.
It is also for this reason that the two attacks launched by the Eighth Route Army yesterday were finally forced to retreat due to the stubborn resistance of the imperial army.
The problem of water, because of the airdrop of the plane, was somewhat replenished, although this replenishment could not meet the needs of the troops at all, the imperial army was only allocated half a pot of water, while the imperial army only had a small cup.
Because of the water problem, there were several looting incidents in the Imperial Army.
It is a pity that the Shanye Brigade was stubbornly blocked by the Eighth Route Army at the southern end of Wildcat Ditch, and the two sides fought for a long time, but finally failed to break through the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army.
Fortunately, another receiving force had already come from the east, and had arrived less than twenty miles from Hutouling.
Mi Toma knew that with the arrival of reinforcements from the two routes, the Eighth Route Army besieging Hutouling had to draw troops to block it, so he asked people to closely monitor the movements of the Eighth Route Army under the ridge.
After receiving a report from Kazuo Yokota, who was guarding the first line of defense, he said that he saw many figures of the Eighth Route Army flickering under Hutou Ridge, and his heart was immediately moved, and he immediately came to the mountain pass of Hutou Ridge.
He stood there, holding a telescope and staring at the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army under the ridge, and saw that there were indeed many Eighth Route Army troops on the position, but after a closer look, he finally saw the flaw.
It turned out that on the position of the Eighth Route Army under the ridge, there were many straw men wearing the clothes of the Eighth Route Army, these people were lying on the position, and there was no movement for a long time, and from the corner of the clothes, straw was found.
It seems that because of the lack of troops, the Eighth Route Army has drawn a large number of troops from the front of Hutouling, and in order to avoid being discovered by itself, it can only put some dummies to confuse itself.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile in surprise, and after returning to the command post, he immediately used the radio to get in touch with the Chunyang Brigade and the Shanye Brigade, and at the same time asked the planes to bomb the blocking positions of the Eighth Route Army on the ridge.
Two hours later, the plane rushed to the foot of Hutou Ridge and immediately carried out a fierce bombardment towards the blocking position of the Eighth Route Army, and sure enough, as the bomb exploded, those straw men flew away quickly, and countless straws were scattered in the sky.
When the Japanese soldiers on the ridge saw this scene, they immediately burst out laughing.
Seeing that what he expected was right, Mi Fu immediately seized the opportunity and ordered Zhang Deyi to lead the Imperial Alliance Army to quickly rush down the ridge, with the Japanese army following behind.
After Zhang Deyi's troops rushed down the ridge, they were only sporadically blocked, but the Eighth Route Army's resistance could not stop the attack of the Imperial Allied Army who were bent on fleeing for their lives, and soon the Imperial Allied Army opened a gap in the east, and then ran to the east desperately.
Seeing that the Imperial Allied Army had successfully broken out of the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army, Mi Toma immediately excitedly commanded the Japanese army to follow up, and behind them, only the shouts of the Eighth Route Army and sporadic gunfire sounded.
Although the army of the Great Japanese Empire was fighting fiercely with the Eighth Route Army, Mi Toma did not choose the direction of Wildcat Ditch, because Wildcat Ditch had become his eternal pain, and on the other hand, judging from the battle between the two sides, it should be the main force of the Eighth Route Army.
Because according to the information from the Shanye Brigade, the Eighth Route Army that exchanged fire with them not only had mortars, but also Type 92 infantry guns produced by the empire.
The Chunyang Brigade, which came from the east to meet it, was only thirty miles away from here, and as long as he led his troops to rush through these thirty miles before dark, he could get rid of the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army.
The Imperial Allied Army in front of them was greedy for life and afraid of death, but when it came to escaping, even the soldiers of the Great Japanese Empire sighed to themselves.
After learning that the Imperial Allied Army had rushed through a valley in front, Mi Toma didn't think much about it at all, and immediately rushed into this valley with the remaining four or five hundred Japanese troops.
This valley has a quirky name, the mud ditch. On either side are undulating hills, and in the middle is a wide avenue, but the distance between the two sides is only 400 meters, and there is almost no shelter in the middle, and there is a corn field after harvesting.
The corn stalks in the field have also been cut down by the common people, but the wheat has not yet been sown, and at a glance, you can see the mountain pass opposite.
Mi Fu led the troops to rush into the mud ditch, just saw the shadow of the imperial army rushing through the opposite mountain pass, he couldn't help but be very angry, this is really true, I don't know how to send someone to guard the mountain pass, and the imperial army rushed through this mud ditch.
However, he saw that the muddy ditch was less than a mile long, and it would only take five minutes for his troops to rush through. Therefore, no troops were sent to search the hills on either side.
His negligence finally brought the Mitoma Brigade into the Jedi.
Liu Tianshu and Han Fangping stood on a small hill in the north, the two of them lay there, carefully observed with binoculars, and saw that the Imperial Association Army did not stop at all, so they rushed through the muddy ditch in a swarm, and the two relaxed slightly.
As long as the Imperial Association Army can pass smoothly, the devils behind should be relieved.
Sure enough, after a few minutes, the devils lined up in two formations, running from the east pass to the muddy ditch, and when they entered the ditch, the devil's team only stopped for a minute, and immediately began to run forward.
Liu Tianshu's machine gun battalion arranged 36 heavy machine guns on both sides of the mud ditch, 18 on one side, and one every 50 meters. These machine gun firepower have been divided into their own firing areas in advance, and according to Liu Tianshu, that is, to ensure that there are no dead spots in the entire mud ditch.
In other words, as long as the devils step into this fire ambush circle, what awaits them is the wanton harvest of death.
Seeing the last devil passing through the mountain pass in the west, and the devil in front had not yet reached the east mountain pass, Liu Tianshu took a deep breath, held the shell gun and shot at the sky, and a crisp gunfire sounded over the mud ditch.
As if the sleeping firepower was awakened, suddenly, on the hills on both sides of the ditch, the covered wild grass was suddenly lifted, and the thirty-six heavy machine guns showed their hideous faces, and the shooters who had been ready for a long time opened fire on the devils on the ditch avenue with their eyes shining, and suddenly opened fire on the devils on the ditch avenue, and a string of blazing bullets rushed out from both sides, and in a blink of an eye, the devils on the avenue who were stunned by the sudden change of fortune were torn apart, and pieces of devils spat blood and fell to the ground.
Mi Toma saw countless heavy machine guns suddenly appear on the hills on both sides, the bullets rained down, and his subordinates fell to the ground one by one, and the whole ravine was full of screams of wounded soldiers, and the remaining soldiers ran desperately in the ditch, hoping to find a place to avoid the bullets, but unfortunately there was no place to hide in the entire ravine.
The soldiers standing beside him were shot one after another and fell, the entire ravine has become a hell on earth, and his own troops have become prey to be slaughtered. The sound of gunfire, explosions, the screams of the soldiers before they died, and the groans of pain all disappeared from his world.
He stood there straight, his body could no longer move, until a string of bullets came sideways, swept past him, and a bunch of blood spat out of his mouth, and then his body slowly fell.
In a trance, he seemed to see Hokkaido's mother, standing at the edge of the village calling his name......
Han Fangping heard the deafening sound of gunshots, and then saw the devils on the ditch and the avenue, falling in rows, without the slightest power to fight back, and the one-sided battle scene made him feel a huge shock in his heart. He didn't expect that Liu Tianshu's machine gun battalion would have such great power, hundreds of devils were like hundreds of pigs waiting to be slaughtered, and there was no possibility of escape at all, even if some soldiers fought back, in the face of such dense firepower, it was tantamount to a praying mantis blocking the car and being crushed by Liu Tianshu's machine gun battalion.
The one-sided battle did not last much, that is, in three or five minutes, the gunfire gradually subsided, and the air in the muddy ditch was filled with a strong smell of blood, and there was no longer a standing devil on the entire avenue.
Han Fangping's ears seemed to be echoing fierce gunshots, until Liu Tianshu reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said in a calm voice: "Commander Han, the battle is over, let the comrades of the Rongshan Independent Regiment clean up the battlefield immediately, and I will bring a machine gun battalion to reinforce the first battalion." ”
"Alright, alright, leave it to us here, you go, and we'll be there later." Han Fangping came back to his senses and hurriedly said happily.
The artillery that Shu Zhi arranged on the hill finally failed to wait for the opportunity to open fire.
After eliminating the Mi Toma brigade, the Imperial Association army that fled to the east was not a concern at all, and now Liu Tianshu was most worried about the battalion that was blocking the attack in Wildcat Ditch.
Now that the battle here was over, Liu Tianshu not only ordered the machine gun battalion and artillery company to withdraw from the battle and quickly rush to the direction of Wildcat Gully, but also ordered Hao Mengxuan's second battalion to immediately attack from the rear of the mountain brigade to relieve the pressure on the first battalion.
Han Fangping led the troops to the bottom of the ditch, and saw the corpses of devils everywhere, many of them were hit by several bullets, blood continued to come out of those blood holes, and some of their heads were beaten to pieces.
It's bloody! It's really bloody! (To be continued.) )
