After the Japanese army occupied, a total of five fortresses were added to the four corners and central positions of the pass, which further strengthened the defense of the pass.

At three o'clock in the morning, it was the most sleepy time, and many of the Japanese puppet soldiers on the city tower had fallen asleep against the city, and they were still listless when they woke up. At this moment, the five-shot thing with the flame tail suddenly attracted the attention of the Japanese soldiers who closed it.

Only five shells were seen flying from a distance of about five hundred meters to the gate of the pass. The armor-piercing bullet exploded instantly. The door made of wood was suddenly blown apart, and the blackened wood burned by the fireworks flew into the air, and several unlucky Japanese puppet soldiers were smashed on the head by the wood and shouted in pain.

"Enemy attack!! There are enemy troops!! The Japanese troops in the fort hurriedly raised the alarm. The shrill sirens suddenly sounded through the pass.

But he didn't need to say more, everyone knew that someone was coming. I saw only thirty or forty mortar shells suddenly flying out of the night. These mortar shells pierced into the Pingxing Pass like meteors outside the sky, but what frightened the Japanese troops guarding the pass was that more than a dozen of the mortar shells did not explode, but emitted a gray gas, which spread very quickly, and it seemed that it was about to spread to the entire pass.

"Gas bombs!! The poison gas bombs of the people of China, everyone quickly wear gas masks!! When several Japanese soldiers saw such shells, they immediately remembered their favorite special bombs, and mistakenly thought that these smoke bombs were also gas bombs, so they were so frightened that they hurriedly covered their noses and went to get gas masks, for a while. The customs are even more chaotic.

"Didi, didi, dick. The piercing trumpet suddenly sounded, and the Japanese soldiers, who hurriedly put on their gas masks, grabbed their weapons and shot at the unclear pass.

But what frightened them was that as soon as their machine guns went off, it wouldn't be long before a weapon with a flaming tail flew in the direction of the machine guns, which were set up in the fortifications of the fortress or city wall, and they thought they were extremely safe. In the face of this mysterious weapon, the exposed fortress and fortifications had no resistance like the unclothed girl, and every shell completed the task of destroying the fortress. One by one, the machine guns were dumbed, and a group of blackened, fancy men rushed into the gate shouting the sound of fighting.

The two small bunkers on one side of the checkpoint have been blown up beyond recognition, and Chen Guang outside the gate nodded and said, "Order the recoilless gun crew to concentrate fire and blow up that big bunker for me." Mortars fired accurately. Tell them that this is a closed-door operation, the door can't be closed for half a day, don't care about ammunition! The division commander said, how much fight, he went to ask Mr. Zhu for it!! ”

The squadron leader in the big fortress listened to the incessant explosions and shouts of killing outside. The January weather couldn't stop the sweat dripping from his head, and he slammed the phone hard, and there was no reaction at all. He immediately understood that the telephone line had probably been cut long ago.

"Power generation. Quick, hurry up and generate electricity to the nearby county, we need tactical guidance, now! Immediately! Right away!!! Squadron Leader Nagura yelled loudly at the dispatcher next to him.

"Report the report, telegram!" A communications soldier said with his head bowed.

"What's wrong? Is there news of reinforcements? Squadron Leader Nagura asked excitedly.

"Laiyuan sent a telegram asking for help, saying that a large number of national troops had appeared near them, and now they have lost half of their troops, and asked us for support." Before the signal soldier could finish speaking, Nagura kicked him down and shouted, "Did your head stay in your mother's stomach?" What is the need to read such a telegram, it is we who need reinforcements now, understand? It's us!! ”

"Boom" A huge explosion made Nakura's whole person almost unstable. Looking at the dust that kept falling, Nagura asked in horror, "What's wrong?" What happened? ”

One was shot in the shoulder, and the soldier who kept studying abroad stumbled in and said, "Report, the Chinese army has blown up the west and has been killed." ”

Nakura opened his mouth and looked at the roof in disbelief.

Because it was a hand-to-hand combat, half of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were given Mauser pistols, and as soon as they rushed into the pillbox, they first greeted the Japanese soldiers with two grenades, and then rushed in for a burst of pistol fire. After a while, several other walls were blasted open one by one. The troops were divided into two, and while going upstairs to clear the Japanese troops on the upper part of the pillbox, they charged down to clear the remnants of the enemy underground.

Chen Guang stood on the wall of Pingxingguan, looked at the fortress where gunshots were heard from time to time, and looked at his watch, and the time had passed for an hour and a half. I couldn't help but ask anxiously, "What's going on?" Why hasn't the battle been solved yet? ”

An officer hurriedly ran out to ask about the situation, and after a while came in and said, "There are dozens of devils nesting in the underground of the fortress, the entrance is very narrow, the devils made two machine guns to block, we threw a few grenades into it, but it had no effect, I heard the captured puppet army say, there is a steel gate below, I suspect that the devils used that gate to block the grenades." ”

Chen Guang stomped his feet and said, "Where is there time to spend with them, find out if there is any gasoline, pour it into me, burn it, anyway, it's a group of beasts, and they have burned me for a hundred." ”

There were still a few trucks and cars in the Pingxing Pass, and there were also a lot of supplies and gasoline, and when the Ming Cang smelled a peculiar smell, he only felt a spirit, and a few Japanese soldiers who were dancing rushed over, pointing outside and shouting, "Oh no, the people of Chi Na have poured gasoline down, and it seems that they are preparing to set fire." ”

Nakura's eyes widened and he scolded, "Do they still have humanity?" Are they devils? ”

Nakura walked to the gate, and sure enough, he saw that liquid was being poured down, and gasoline quickly came in through the gap in the gate, and several Japanese soldiers retreated in fear.

"Yaga, what are you hiding? Are you still great imperial warriors? It's just some gasoline, so what's there to be afraid of? Nakura exclaimed inwardly.

"Fire!! Fire!! In the frightened scream, Nakura saw a fire dragon rushing towards him, Nakura retreated again and again, but where did he have fire to run fast, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army outside the fortress only heard the continuous screams inside the fortress, and then a tempting fragrance came out. But the thought of where the taste came from makes anyone lose their appetite.

When the first rays of sunlight hit Pingxingguan, Lin Sanhu also walked into Pingxingguan. I only saw the corpses of the Japanese puppet soldiers lined up in rows, some of which were charred black, which were Japanese soldiers hiding underground and unwilling to surrender.

The bodies of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were also placed on the other side, and some wounded soldiers stood at the front with bandages. They were the heroes of this war, and they deserved to stand in front and receive the attention of their leaders.

But to Lin Sanhu's surprise, there were still some corpses of women, although their faces were covered. But Lin Sanhu still recognized that it was a woman's corpse.

Chen Guang saluted Lin Sanhu and said, "The 343 Brigade has completely annihilated 538 people in the Ping-type Pass garrison, including 367 Japanese soldiers and 79 puppet soldiers. Three Japanese soldiers were captured, and 92 puppet soldiers were captured. Our troops lost 53 people, 16 were seriously wounded, and 36 were slightly wounded. In addition, we rescued some women who were tied up by the devils and taken to the gate. Some of them killed themselves when they saw us. ”

Lin Sanhu frowned and nodded. Although it was a night attack and the superiority of troops and weapons, the Japanese still brought hundreds of casualties to the 115th Division.

Lin Sanhu said, "Those women are told to wash and clean, get dressed, and let them leave when their bodies are well and their mood is restored, otherwise they will easily do stupid things." All the wounded in the army remained, and the others waited for Xiao Hua's troops to take over and immediately advanced in the direction of Luliang Mountain, which was 400 kilometers from Wenshui County. We all responded along the way, and Mr. Zhu gave us eight days. I'll only give you six days, and after six days, we will have to show up in Wenshui County. ”

Chen Guang couldn't help but say, "Isn't six days too short?" Or seven days, don't put too much pressure on the troops. ”

Lin Sanhu glared and said, "It's just six days, not even one more minute!" ”

After speaking, Lin Sanhu saw Chen Guang with his head down, and couldn't help but think of the incident when Chen Guang was injured and saved himself out of the encirclement when he was in Jinggangshan, and said slowly in a slow tone, "As soon as the door is closed on our side, the dog is already frightened, and they must still mistakenly think that we are to encircle Wei to save Zhao, and will not leave the vicinity of Luliang Mountain, but no one can tell when the devil will react, once the devil reacts, Mr. Zhu's side will definitely walk out of the fortifications in order to entangle the enemy, and then the casualties will be great, and we will become sinners." So a minute earlier to the predetermined location, we will have fewer casualties, and this time all the people are mobilized, it will not be as difficult as you think. ”

Chen Guang nodded in understanding and said, "What the division commander said is reasonable, I will organize the troops to set off immediately." ”

Lin Sanhu continued, "Order the independent regiment to be the vanguard, and kill all the devils and puppet troops in front of you, but don't fight big cities, at most small county towns, it's best not to even fight county seats, what we want is speed, don't be held back by devils." ”

Before the troops got out of Pingxingguan, a communications soldier rode a horse and shouted, "Division commander, there are a lot of people pushing carts outside, and they have been organized from all over the country to help." ”

Nie Rongzhen, who was next to Lin Sanhu, said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go out and have a look." ”

Chen Guang followed out of Pingxingguan, only to see a long line of wheelbarrows pushed by people appear in front of him. Among them, there are quite a few rubber carts pulled by oxen. ”

The signal soldier said to a middle-aged man in his thirties led by him: "This is our chief, the commander of the 115th Division -- Comrade Lin Sanhu. ”

The middle-aged man held Lin Sanhu's hand and said, "Senior Commander Lin, we have met, I am the secretary of Baiyatai Township, I have organized a large group of people to help the troops march, you give us your clothes, bedding, and ammunition, you travel lightly, we will push the cart and go with you, rest assured, when we get to the next township, someone will come to change us, the further back ah, the more carriages, we will escort you all the way over, so that you can get to the place you want to go as quickly as possible." ”

Luo Ronghuan pointed to the straight peasants who were standing one by one, although they were dressed in shabby clothes and most of their faces were covered with vegetables, and said, "Comrades, have you seen it? These are our families, our people, our fathers and villagers, can we let such good people be bullied by little devils again? Are you afraid that one day a little devil will come to rob your sister and daughter and rob money? ”

"Can't! No! No!! Chen Guang shouted with his head in his head, and all the warriors brandished their guns and shouted.

"Goal! Wenshui County! Comrades, protect the folks and move forward!! ”

-- Luliang Mountain

Time retreated to the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in Luliang Mountain two days ago, Mr. Zhu frowned and looked at the map and said, "These little devils really think that we are going to escape from the path of Luliang Mountain, and they actually keep bombing these trails, and our communication soldiers have sacrificed several of them." ”

Jiang Cheng next to him smiled and said, "The devil's plane won't be arrogant for long, Mr. Zhu, after the door closes, how about we give them a ruthless one first?" ”

Mr. Zhu shook his head and said, "No, if you can paralyze the devils, it is estimated that it will take eight or nine days for all the main forces to arrive around here at the earliest, and how to deceive the devils in these eight or nine days is the key, and we must not let the devils find out that we are not the main force here." But we are fighting a defensive war, how can we convince the Japanese army that we are the main force? ”

"How about eliminating the three of them?" I only saw Li Kenong coming over and laughing.

Mr. Zhu asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Li Kenong looked at Jiang Cheng and said, "Boss, you also know, we all know the devil's telegram code, we have just intercepted the secret telegram of the Japanese army, and the Japanese army ordered a chariot wing, a cavalry wing and an infantry wing of the Japanese army ambushed in Wenshui County from the Yudao River through Lijiazhuang to Sanquan Town, intending to divide our army into two. I immediately activated the shadows there, and sure enough, a large number of Japanese troops were secretly gathered there, but I don't know the number, but according to the Japanese army, there were at least seventy or eighty chariots and nearly six thousand fighters. Of course, we were also afraid that this was misinformation, so we contacted another key person and got a definite answer. ”

Mr. Zhu patted the case and shouted, "If you want it, fight like this, tell Mr. Peng the news, use the second-level weapon, make the Japanese army hurt, and make them want to stop, so that they are like gamblers who have lost a bet, they will only think about gambling again, and will not think about retreating." ”

-- Yangjiazhuang

Mr. Peng looked at the telegram coming down from the mountain, laughed and said, "Order the troops of Lijiazhuang to retreat to Yifeng South Village after encountering a little resistance from the Japanese armored forces, where the terrain is higher and is a good place to block the Japanese armored forces, and order the transfer of all the air defense units and anti-tank units and half of the recoilless guns." Since the Japanese army gave such a big gift, we are embarrassed not to take it! ”

-- Yudaohe Town

Shigeru Fujita watched the moon gradually rise in the sky, and looked back at the black chariot troops behind him, this is more than eighty percent of the chariots of the Third Army, because Shanxi is an occupation area, and there are many mountainous areas, so it is not equipped with too many chariots, there are only three light chariot squadrons and four medium chariot squadrons, each chariot squadron has ten chariots, three for a small team, and one for the squadron command vehicle. In addition, with the addition of two brigade command vehicles and its own wing command, there are a total of 78 combat vehicles.

In addition, there is a maintenance brigade, after all, the tank is actually said to be strong and strong, and it is fragile to say that it is fragile, and it is easy to break down, and there is no maintenance unit behind, and he does not dare to lead the troops to charge for a long time.

Then there was a cavalry wing, with five hundred cavalrymen, and an infantry wing of more than 140 trucks added to match their chariots and cavalry.

The total strength of the army was about 6,000 people.

Shigeru Fujita asked, "Have all the vehicles been replaced with new engines?" I don't want to break down after a long time. ”

A Japanese officer wearing a dirty glove on his hand next to him smiled and said, "It's all changed, it's ten kilometers away from the front line of the attack, and it takes about half an hour to walk. ”

Whether it is World War II or later generations, the tank is actually a delicate weapon, its engine needs to be maintained every few motorcycle hours of operation, and the engine of World War II tanks generally needs to be replaced after 200 to 300 motorcycle hours. Although the later generations are better because of the development of technology, they will not exceed 500 motorcycle hours.

Shigeru Fujita nodded and said, "Order the engineer troops to be the vanguard, the Eighth Route Army has a lot of strange mines, be more careful, don't damage the precious Imperial chariots because of these mines." (To be continued.) )
