Chapter 223: The Fourth Section of the Horse Wheel Battle, the Five Gate Wheel Battle

The people are still in Fuping Immortal Mountain, and Yang Bangzi's order has been transmitted back to Kawaguchi Town, preparing for war with all his might, and preparing for a showdown with the devils who walked the horses! The order reminded Deputy Commander Gao and the newly appointed Chief of Staff Fan Daring to pull the newly trained troops to the area of Xipotai and Baishi Mountain, and to cooperate with the main force to launch a round battle against the enemy in Wumen Village with companies and battalions as units.

The senior deputy commander of the 11th sub-district who stayed behind also heard a lot of news from the enlarged meeting of the military region through his own connections in the military region, and Yang Bangzi has turned into a phoenix and has become a big celebrity in the military region, and the senior deputy commander is not very confident about his future, and it is best to make some achievements when he is temporarily acting as the military sub-district.

After handing over the special training camp to his deputy, he rushed to Yinfang Town, only to know that Yang Bangzi had already started to train recruits in Yinfang Town after the battle with the Kuroda United on the Eastern Front! Counting the fingers, these recruits have been trained by the combat section of the military subdivision for almost two months.

With Yang Bangzi's order, Fan Daring and Deputy Commander Gao followed the plan drawn up by the main force of Kawaguchi Town to the east and south lines of Zoumayi, and transferred the special training battalion to the western slope of the northern front, preparing to lead the recruit training battalion to conduct actual combat training.

As a matter of fact, not many of these recruits had never participated in battles, and before joining the army, at least they had seen battles when the whole sub-district was mobilized to fight the Kuroda Wing, and at least they heard the sound of guns and artillery and their legs and stomachs did not turn around, and more than half of them had the experience of fighting guerrillas and serving as militia in the local area.

The devil didn't expect that they would go into the mountains two or three times a year to sweep up. but the farmers who have been honest with their ancestors for generations. It's a quasi-warrior for sweeping!

What is the difference between being a soldier and being a guerrilla militia? The difference lies in discipline and overall tactical coordination. Don't underestimate the queue during recruit training, that is the most basic element of turning a common man into an army that obeys orders and advances and retreats in a uniform manner! During the battle on the Eastern Front, the soldiers of the 20th Regiment were all highly disciplined soldiers, and the more than 10,000 ordinary people who rushed to support were brave in courage and bravery, but they were poorly disciplined, attacking in a swarm, retreating and running all over the mountain.

The march was done at night. At present, the devils who walk the horse post are huddled in the surrounding fortifications, the weather is cold, and they don't plan to fight any battles, but the eight roads are all mountain people, and they can't see that there are devils on the side of the kang head after the New Year, so the battle order is reached, and they are very excited.

To the southeast of the platform where Wumen Village is located, there is a cliff crevice ditch called Rotten Foot Ditch, because the mountain is steep. The ditch was deep and densely forested with thorns and needles, and the Japanese army did not send people down to garrison the ravine. Several garrisons were set up on the edge of the terrace.

That night, the northwest wind blew the ground, the terrace was sunburned and the snow was blown by the wind, and the mud and water were frozen all with ice ballast, the devils in the village hid in the house and guarded the brazier and did not come out, the devils in the fortifications outside froze one by one and stepped on the spot or trotted to keep warm, and the officials had to cover the covered fire to get some firewood, and Shimizu Dazuo had an order that there should be no open fire on the outer positions!

Who would have thought that in this kind of ghost weather, a team would come up in the rotten foot ditch full of thorns! Fan Daring personally led the team, let the Baishi Mountain guerrillas lead the way, and organized a most capable reinforced platoon in the special training camp, preparing to climb up from the back cliff and kill the devil firepower on the top of the cliff.

The guerrillas of Baishi Mountain were originally formed by Yang Bangzi from the local villagers who selected hunters, medicine collectors and other mountain people, and climbed the mountain cliffs dozens of meters high without ropes or hook rods.

It's hard enough to walk through the rotten foot ditch, and it's really right to call it a rotten foot ditch! This ditch is full of thorn needles, but also full of broken stone stubble, walk down the thin shoes have to be punctured and pierced by the shoes, fortunately the local villagers teach the trick, with red willow branches around the feet in a circle, wrap a few more, walk this no road ravine, and do not tie the feet, but also non-slip.

In order to conceal themselves, they were all wearing black jackets and trousers, and their shoes were also black cloth, and their faces were plastered with ash from the bottom of the pot, and the brown rope was also plastered with furnace ash.

It's really hard to climb, the stone wall is already covered with mossy slippery, the last time the scouts climbed up, there were ice skates on the stone wall, this time, the ice skates on the stone wall hung down on the rock wall, the small ones hit the break and fell down to make a noise that would alarm the devils above, if the big ice skates collapsed, they would kill the people below, and the three guerrillas could only carefully avoid these ice skates back and forth on the stone wall.

It was usually half an hour, because the ice skates were delayed, and it took an hour and a half to reach the top of the cliff, and a new problem came out, and the three guerrillas went up, but the brown rope they brought with them could not be put down, because the brown rope hung down, and it would definitely touch the ice skate on the rock wall.

The wind is getting stronger and stronger, and experienced veterans and guerrillas all say that the snow will come down in the middle of the night after the trouble, so you have to hurry up, otherwise you will not talk about going up for a while, and your hands will be glued to this cold stone wall!

Fan Daring thought to himself, they are all from the mountains, if people can go up, can't we go up! Besides, the result of the last reconnaissance was that there were three firing points on the edge of the terrace, two small cantonment positions, which were built with stones and sandbags, and the larger one was a machine-gun fire point, which was also built with stones and sandbags, which means that there were at most twenty or thirty devils.

Fan Daring picked twelve fighters, all of whom were good mountaineers, without spears, two box guns per person, ten grenades, Fan Daring and the other two team members also carried a **bag, and they were also ready to climb up with their bare hands, and then use the ** bag to blow up the devil's firepower point, and then put the brown rope down, and the fifteen people on the cliff stuck to the people under the cliff.

However, this was by no means wishful thinking, and when the thirteen men were still about ten meters away from the top of the cliff, the friction-increasing grass rope tied to the feet of one of the warriors was worn off, and the rock wall with thin ice was extremely slippery. I didn't hold it at once. And the man rolled down. rubbed off a lot of ice skates, and the whole person fell off a cliff more than 30 meters high.

Our Eighth Route Army is hard! The fallen warrior rolled from the beginning to the end to the bottom of the cliff, but he didn't say a word! The muffled sound of people falling on the stone surface at the bottom of the cliff and the clatter of ice skates still alarmed the devils on the top of the cliff, and the three devil soldiers came out of the cantonment with their bayonet rifles and craned their necks to check the movement.

On the edge of the cliff behind the terrace, there is no shelter, and the original shrubs and wild grass are all winter. The grass and tree leaves have also fallen off, and it is okay to hide when it is dark, but the devil comes out with a flashlight, and no one can hide it when the time comes!

The three guerrillas in Baishi Mountain didn't have time to think about it, and when they saw that the devil was about to reach the edge of the cliff, they simply jumped up from their hiding place and rushed straight to the devil! Caught off guard, the devil and the black shadow that pounced on him scuffled together!

The flashlight light shaking on the top of the cliff, Fan Daring saw it, and he also heard the sound of whirring and fighting. The soldier who didn't have time to think about falling, so he could only shout to the remaining eleven people to climb up quickly! At the same time, shouting that the people under the cliff also began to climb the cliff!

The three devils who came out to check the movement were strangled to death and two were killed with daggers. The rest of the man scuffled with the person who pounced on him a few times, and actually got rid of the opponent's entanglement, in a panic, picked up the fallen rifle and fired a shot, and ran to the position with a rolling belt, and the devils on the top of the cliff were alarmed, and seven or eight devils came out of the big fort and rushed over with flashlights and torches!

When the guerrillas came up from Baishi Mountain, only one captain was carrying a short gun, and in order to make it easier to climb the mountain, the other two team members did not bring long guns, but brought two grenades, and just killed two devils and handed over two guns, and the captain told the two team members to go and tie the rope quickly, and he resisted here for a while!

There are no trees on the top of the cliff to tie the rope, so they can only tie the rope to the stone, the stone slips, and they are afraid that the rope will slip off, so the two team members simply tie the rope head to their waist one by one, and then go around the stone, and then throw down the cliff, and they lie down next to the stone, and they will be tied to the rope.

More than a dozen devil soldiers opened fire and fanned towards the edge of the cliff, and the squad leader of the Baishi Mountain guerrillas killed two devils and was hit in the head by a machine gun bullet and died.

The two team members threw grenades, and after running out the bullets in the rifle, they also sacrificed, and when they were dying, they stubbornly picked their hands on the stones under them, and used their bodies to block the rope, and the devils also died several, I don't know how many eight roads there were, and after hesitating for a while, several grenades on the edge of the cliff were thrown up!

With the explosion of the grenade, Fan Daring and several soldiers jumped onto the edge of the cliff, all with two guns in hand, and the barge guns were all long and short point shots during the run, and the distance of ten barge guns was much more powerful than machine guns at a distance of ten meters! At once, seven or eight devils were beaten to the ground and couldn't get up!

Fan boldly shouted, and asked the two soldiers to look at the rope and carry the ** bag to the fire point of the devil! His own cat went straight to the big fort in the middle with the ** bag between his waist, and seeing that it was almost there, the machine gun in the devil's main fort rang out! The bullet swept over the hillside, and Fan Daring's right calf hurt and numb, and the color was hung!

With the pain in his right leg, Fan boldly took advantage of the situation to jump to the left, a forward rolling tiger pounced, and the whole person rolled forward with one hand on the hillside, and arrived at the main fort.

Seeing that the fuse was almost burned, he stuffed it into the gun hole of the main fort, pushed it in with his arm, and pushed his body back with the force of pushing, sticking to the ground, and retreating several meters like a fish.

"Boom!" After an earth-shattering loud bang, the shattered stones, broken sandbags, broken wood chips, stumps and broken arms, and pieces of blood and flesh were blown up by the explosion and scattered like rain, so close that Fan Daring was also shocked by the shock wave of the explosion and fainted.

When he opened his eyes again, he had been carried by the soldiers to the incomplete main castle on the top of the cliff, and the soldiers under the cliff came up and were chasing the devils who retreated from the top of the cliff, and at the same time, the soldiers who quietly moved from the west slope platform to the special training camp outside the first-line position of the devils also launched an attack on the devils at the same time as the cliff top!

On the entire platform of Wumen Village, from top to bottom, from east to west, gunshots and explosions rang out! In the whistling northwest wind, there were shouts of killing and gunfire everywhere, Fan Daring's leg was pierced by a machine gun bullet in the calf, and he jumped up and wanted to kill the devil, the news has already arrived, the devils in the village can't resist it, and they have retreated from the western slope to the horse post!

On the west side of the Wumen Village Plateau, across the valley was the teaching brigade from Gegou Village, and they also launched a strong attack on the hill defended by the devils in the valley at the same time according to the pre-plan, and for a time the enemy and us at the northern end of the entire Zoumayi were scuffled together!
