Ding Zero Zero ...... The field phone in the headquarters of the 63rd Wing of the Japanese Army suddenly rang. Xie Ruchuan and Park Hyo-sam and others are waiting for them. The two glanced at each other, and Park Hyo-san, who was better at Japanese, picked up the phone.

"Moximosi, this is the headquarters of the 63rd Wing."

……

"Shhhh Brigade seat, don't make a sound, the 2nd Brigade of the Japanese Army stationed on the front street of Shengfang suddenly called to inquire about the gunfire just now. Camp commander, they're fooling the devils! "Wen Bin, the commander of the special service brigade, had just returned to the compound where the enemy wing headquarters was located, when a confidential messenger hurriedly greeted him.

The command of the enemy wing was small, and the special service brigade successfully captured it without much effort, but it was forced to use firearms and even hand grenades when attacking the adjacent baggage squadrons and ammunition squads. The second brigade and the wing headquarters were both stationed in Shengfang Town, and such a loud noise would naturally arouse their vigilance.

Wen Bin was taken aback, and hurriedly asked, "How did they deal with the battalion commander, didn't they show their feet?" ”

As he was talking, Xie Ruchuan strode out and said with a smile: "It's no longer a problem, we told the second brigade to execute some disobedient residents just now, and they didn't express any doubts after listening to what they said." ”

Wen Bin snorted and said angrily: "This shows that they often kill innocent people in China, and they have long been accustomed to it!" ”

Xie Ruchuan's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "The Minister of Culture and Tourism is right! These beasts, they have to pay for their blood debts! ”

Wen Bin took a deep breath, calmed down a little, and then asked, "Pei Ran, is the 53rd Army deployed in place?" ”

Xie Ruchuan nodded and said, "Yes, the three regiments of the 116th Division have surrounded the enemy's first brigade from Xin'an Town, Senchapu Town, and Wangzhuangzi Township before. After adjusting the deployment, Cong Zhaolin's division of the 346th Regiment of the 116th Division rushed to Zhongkou Village, east of Caiyuan Village, to set up an ambush. The other two regiments were also hurrying to arrive. ”

The 63rd Wing of the Japanese Army was still very cautious in its deployment. The 1st Brigade was with the Tank Squadron and was deployed in Caiyuan Village; The wing headquarters and the 2nd Brigade, as well as the artillery units directly under it, were deployed in Shengfang Town; The 3rd Brigade was deployed in Tangerli Town, seven kilometers north of Shengfang Town. If the midpoint of the connecting line between Erli Town and Shengfang Town is about 10 kilometers to the west, it is Caiyuan Village.

In this way, the enemy's three brigades will be horns of each other, and they will be deployed in a zigzag shape, which is difficult to attack under normal circumstances. Moreover, the firepower of these three brigades was very strong, and the first brigade had twelve tanks to help; The 2nd Brigade was with the Wing Headquarters, as well as two squadrons of Wing Artillery directly under the Wing; The 3rd Brigade was more ferocious, stationed alongside the 1st Brigade of the Independent Field Heavy Artillery Wing of the Garrison, with eight Type 96 150mm howitzers.

It was precisely because of this that the 53rd Army initially intended only to eliminate the 1st Brigade located in Caiyuan Village. Therefore, the troops were divided into three routes, advancing to Xin'an Town, Senchapu Town, and Wangzhuangzi Township. The town of Xin'an is north of Caiyuan Village. The town of Senchapu is west of Caiyuan Village. Wang Zhuangzi Township is south of Caiyuan Village, just sandwiching Caiyuan Village on three sides. However, the enemy army has a tank squadron, which is not so easy to fight. Just look at the battles of Xiajieyuli and Toheong-ri on the Korean battlefield, and if you really want to fight hard, it is estimated that it will be a fiasco. Of course. Now the command of the Japanese army is in his hands. Naturally, you don't have to work so hard.

Brigadier Wen Bin saw that all the units were ready. Immediately, in his capacity as the commander of the 63rd Wing, he ordered the 1st Brigade of the Japanese Army to rush to Shengfang Town overnight, on the grounds that the camp of the Resistance Army of China had been discovered south of the Daqing River and that it was preparing to launch a surprise attack on the enemy before dawn. Since it was a surprise attack. Naturally, it couldn't move too much, so Wen Bin asked the unit to walk lightly, and the tank unit remained in Caiyuan Village, waiting for the third brigade to send troops to respond.

After the order was issued, Wen Bin said to Xie Ruchuan: "Pei Ran, the tank troops on the side of the First Brigade are rare, and they must be captured as completely as possible, so they have to work hard for you." ”

Xie Ruchuan smiled: "Okay, this matter is on us." However, you are also short of people here, so I will take a Blue Eagle team with you, and the rest of the Blue Eagle troops will be led by Deputy Battalion Commander Park and will be dispatched by you. ”

There are only two special combat teams on the side of the special service brigade, and there are really not enough manpower, Wen Bin didn't refuse, nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll be disrespectful!" ”

The order soon arrived in the vegetable garden village. The weather was cold, and it was necessary to march in a hurry overnight, and the captain of the first brigade of the Japanese army in Caiyuan Village, Toyoda Hideyoshi, was a hundred reluctant after receiving the order. However, the official level crushed people to death, and the wing headquarters issued a formal order, and there was nothing wrong with the behavior, so Toyoda Shaozo could only choose to obey.

Bo Bo, Bo Bo ...... The First Brigade was soon dispatched, and the clatter of military boots on the road was particularly loud in the silence of the night. It was not that the Japanese did not pay attention to concealment, but that it was impossible for the troops to run on tiptoe when they were marching in a hurry, and they had to make a sound.

At the west end of Zhongkou Village, the soldiers of the 346th Regiment were quietly lurking on the side of the road. One of the advantages of the topography is that there is a large pond to the north and a canal to the west. In addition, the situation is flat, as long as the southeast side starts, let alone withdraw, there is no place to hide.

Boom, boom, the footsteps of the Japanese army are getting closer and closer! At the head was an infantry squad, and the main force of the brigade was hoisted a hundred meters behind. The distance between the squadrons and squads was also relatively large, about 50 meters, and the Japanese army, which was only a thousand men in total, stretched for more than three miles. This is still at night, if it is only during the day, I am afraid that the units will be farther apart and the queue will be longer. To put it bluntly, the Japanese army was still afraid of being ambushed. But sometimes it's a fear of something.

"Tuanza, the little devil is here!" A sharp-eyed soldier reminded in a whisper.

Commander Cong Zhaolin snorted and ordered: "Let the brothers lie on their stomachs and don't move, that's the devil's spearhead, let it go first!" ”

"Yes, Tuanza!"

The 1st Brigade of the Japanese Army was busy rushing to the town of Katsuyoshi, and the advance was so fast that there was no time to search on both sides of the road. The spearhead trotted all the way and quickly rushed through the ambush circle. Regiment Commander Cong Zhaolin looked coldly at the main force of the brigade behind him, and said in a deep voice: "All battalions and companies are ready, open fire!" ”

It's too late, it's fast, da-da-da...... Dense bullets whistled across the marching queue of the 1st Brigade, and the Japanese soldiers who were caught off guard screamed one after another. It's like cutting wheat and falling in pieces. Rumble...... The mortar gunners and grenadiers were not far behind, and for a time all kinds of grenades and shells fell like hail on the road where the Japanese army was marching. Shooting Zhu Yuan has long been corrected, it can be said that the gun bites the flesh, the bullet blossoms, and almost in an instant, it sets off a wave of blood.

"Enemy attack!"

"There is an ambush in the southeast!"

"Lie down, be careful!"

……

Finally, a Japanese officer reacted, shouting heartbreakingly and trying to gather the troops, but it was too late. The blow just now was too terrifying, and in just the first few seconds, the First Brigade suffered at least half of the casualties. Moreover, the establishment has been disrupted, and even if all the remnants of the defeated army are gathered, it will be impossible to escape defeat.

Captain Cong glanced at him coldly. Another order was given: "Flare off." The whole regiment of fighters got on bayonets and prepared for the assault! ”

Puff puff...... Several flares suddenly rose into the air, illuminating the battlefield as bright as day, and the remnants of the Japanese army suddenly had nothing to hide on the empty road. I saw a blur of flesh and blood on the road. Dead Pillows. The remnants of the Japanese army panicked and scurried around. And the dark curtain on the south side of the highway is crowded. Ambushes abounded.

The reason why flares are only used now is to catch the Japanese army by surprise. Because according to the training level of the Japanese army, if the flares were fired first, I am afraid that the soldiers would have already fallen down and hidden. Now that the first blow is over, it doesn't matter if you hit the flares again. And I want to destroy the remnants of the enemy cleanly. You have to have flares.

"Fight back, kill and give!"

"Onboard!"

Led by several officers, dozens of Japanese soldiers frantically pounced. It is said that the grassroots officers of the Japanese army are still very effective, and under such unfavorable circumstances, they can even organize some remnants of the defeated generals to launch a counter-charge to the position of the 346th Regiment. Although it is destined to kill itself like a gray moth fighting a fire, this will to fight to the end is still terrifying.

"Brothers, kill me!" Not to be outdone, the soldiers of the battalions and companies raised their rifles one after another to meet them. After all, there were many people, and the dozens of Japanese soldiers were quickly slaughtered by the soldiers. After destroying this remnant of the enemy, the warriors rushed to the road in one go. At this time, this section of the road had already become a hellish Shura field, and there were horrific corpses everywhere. Even the Japanese soldiers who were lucky enough not to die were so desperate that they had no intention of resisting, and fled in all directions in a panic.

But since the 53rd Army was determined to annihilate the enemy, how could it allow them to escape? After a tragic battle, the remnants of the Japanese army were quickly wiped out, and even those who slipped through the net drowned in canals and mud ponds. The 346th Regiment also added a heavy stroke to the merit book - with the strength of one regiment, it completely annihilated a brigade of Japanese troops.

The sound of gunfire in the bloody battle in Zhongkou Village soon alarmed the surrounding Japanese troops. In particular, the units of the 63rd Wing were not far apart, and the sound of gunfire was particularly clear at night, so all units called or sent telegrams to the wing headquarters to inquire. Wen Bin only said perfunctorily that the troops had discovered the Chinese army marching in the night, and now they were annihilating it, so that the troops could not be impatient. The Japanese brigades never imagined that their superiors would have been given a pot by the special service brigade, and they were all convinced after receiving the telegram. is like the iron fan princess in "Journey to the West", she makes love when she sees the Bull Demon King, who knows that this Bull Demon King is a monkey?

"Report! The brigade seat, the 53rd Army called, saying that the 347th Regiment had arrived at the designated position. ”

Wen Bin nodded and said, "Okay, I know the truth." You immediately notify the 347 regiment to be ready for battle. ”

After succeeding in one move, Wen Bin concocted the same method and ordered the Third Brigade stationed in Tang Erli Town to go south, for the simple reason of taking over the First Brigade that no longer existed.

Park Hyo-sam reminded: "Minister of Culture and Tourism, this unit is also temporarily attached to a heavy artillery brigade, do you order them to separate and then break them individually, or let them go south together and then wipe them out?" ”

Wen Bin thought for a moment and said, "I heard that this artillery is mechanized traction, so let's let them go south together, so as not to hit the infantry, but the artillery slipped back to Tianjin." ”

Park Hyo-sam said: "Will that affect the ambush of the 347th Regiment?" It's hard to deal with so many heavy artillery. ”

Wen Bin waved his hand and said: "It's okay, the 150mm heavy artillery is indeed very powerful, but when it is dragged behind the butt of the tractor, it is just a bunch of iron lumps, and it can't save the fate of the third brigade." Of course, these iron lumps are still very rare, and it is recommended that the 347th regiment do everything possible to grab them. Our military district needs such weapons so much. ”

Park Hyo-sam was convinced when he heard this, and couldn't help nodding again and again.

So Wen Bin resent another telegram. The Independent Field Heavy Artillery Brigade was ordered to go south with the 3rd Brigade, and by the way, all the eight Type 96 150mm howitzers were loaded. Anyway, this cannon is mechanized traction, and it does not affect the march.

The captain of the 3rd Brigade, Yoshikawa Maeshi, did not know what to do, and after confirming the order, he immediately led his troops to set off, but plunged headlong into the encirclement of the 347th Regiment.

Boom, boom, boom...... In an instant, the guns rang out, and the Japanese army, who was already a little confused, was quickly beaten. Zhang Shaoxian, the commander of the 347th Regiment, saw the rows of 150 cannons dragged by the crawler tractor, and shouted excitedly: "Third battalion commander, go quickly, there are a lot of them for Lao Tzu to drag back!" ”

The three battalions are happy. Busy responded: "Yes." Tuanza! ”

"Brothers, kill me!"

"Kill!"

Under the command of the commander of the 3rd battalion, the 7th, 8th, and 9th companies rushed together against the enemy's heavy artillery brigade. The Japanese artillery had much worse will to fight than the infantry, plus there was almost no melee ability. was rushed by the three battalions like this, and immediately panicked and became a mess. The third brigade wanted to draw troops back to the rescue. But I can't take care of myself. Where are the surplus troops?

"Hey!" A soldier was so good that he jumped directly into the cab of the tractor and dragged out a devil alive (note: it was not torn). The model of this tractor is the Type 92 5-ton field heavy artillery tractor. It was Japan that came from an American tractor copycat. The quality is okay, but there are no weapons systems, and protection can only be carried by the soldiers on board. The soldiers ran away like sheep and were slaughtered.

Originally, they could have dragged the cannon around, but it can be seen that the soldiers are so "barbaric" that the drivers of the tractor were frightened and jumped out of the car and fled. The commander of the third battalion took the opportunity to arrange for some fighters who could drive to grab the cab and prepare to tow the cannon away.

The captain of the third brigade, Yoshikawa Maeshi, happened to see this scene, and he trembled all over, and hurriedly shouted: "Quick, the artillery squad immediately opens fire on the heavy artillery brigade and blows them up!" ”

Chief of Staff Yanagida hurriedly persuaded: "No, Your Excellency! If we blow up the cannon, we will all be ordered to be disemboweled! ”

Yoshikawa's eyes were red and he roared, "Yaga, what do you know! Yanagida-kun, if the cannon is stolen by the Zhina people, we won't even be qualified to disembowel! ”

Rumble! The first round of blows of the 347th Army was not complete for fear of damaging those heavy artillery. As a result, the Japanese army also had an intact Type 92 infantry gun. The gunner looked like a veteran, but he simply took aim by visual inspection, and a shell flew over, hitting a tractor, but fortunately there were no casualties.

The third battalion commander was startled and hurriedly shouted: "Quick, speed up, don't be targeted by the little devil." ”

The regiment commander Zhang Shaoxian was also taken aback, and hurriedly ordered the artillery to suppress the Japanese army's firepower, for fear that there would be something wrong with those big iron bumps.

"Onboard!" The Japanese army had only one Type 92 infantry gun left, and it was still exposed on the road, and the end can be imagined, and it was quickly damaged by a 37 flat-fire gun that strafed at close range. Desperate, Yoshikawa had no choice but to organize a death squad to blow up the artillery. I didn't expect this helpless move to become a stroke of genius.

It turned out that the visibility was very low at night, and even if there were flares, it was difficult to identify them for a while. And the Japanese death squads rushed forward desperately, and rushed to those heavy artillery at once. Of course, this is also related to the slow transfer of the 347th regiment. Many soldiers in the Northeast Army can drive, but there are not many who have driven this kind of tractor. So the hands were in a hurry, but the cannon was still spinning in place.

The commander of the third battalion soon discovered the danger and exclaimed: "That's a devil, hurry, stop them!" ”

Well, it was still a step too late, and a Japanese soldier pulled out a grenade and threw it, and it happened to land on an ammunition truck.

Rumble! The grenade exploded, and the fighters looked over in horror, fearing that the shells below would detonate. To everyone's surprise, this grenade only damaged one layer of the shell of the ammunition truck, but the shells inside did not react at all. It turned out that the fuses, projectiles, and cartridges of these shells were all packed separately, even if the fuses were touched during the vibration, they were nothing.

The commander of the third battalion was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered, "Quick, destroy those guys!" Hold on here, don't let the little devils wreak havoc! ”

While the 347th Regiment was fighting fiercely with the enemy, the 348th Regiment also rushed to the outskirts of Shengfang Town. Wen Bin also ordered the unit to assemble at the entrance of the village in the name of sending the second brigade north for reinforcements. The poor soldiers of the second brigade were sleepy-eyed, and as soon as they stood upright, they were surrounded by thousands of soldiers of the 348th Regiment......

It was only then that several Japanese troops in the surrounding area finally realized that something was wrong. The 40th Wing of the 8th Infantry Brigade of the 10th Division of the Japanese Army, which had just occupied Yongqing County during the day, and the 33rd Infantry Brigade of the 33rd Infantry Regiment remaining in Wangqingtuo Town, probably discovered something, and the first company took several telegrams to the 63rd Wing. Wen Bin was worried that there was a trap hidden in the message, so he didn't dare to reply easily, and finally simply cut off contact with the 33rd Brigade of the Japanese Army.

Not to mention Major General Kei Seya, the commander of the 33rd Brigade, and even Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the 10th Division, was also shocked. What are the consequences of losing contact on the battlefield? No one dares to think about the bad side.

"Your Excellency the Division Commander, you must not be able to hide such a big thing, so let's ask Your Excellency Sugiyama Yuan for instructions?" The chief of staff of the 10th Division, Tsuki Buji, carefully suggested.

Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka's face was cloudy, and kicking the ball to Commander Sugiyama was undoubtedly the most trouble-free way. However, in doing so, it is tantamount to abdicating the responsibility of the division commander. If something goes wrong with the 63rd Wing, the responsibility will be entirely on their own.

"Di Bujun, how many troops do we have on hand now?" After much hesitation, Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka decided to give it a go. The Japanese have the personality of gamblers, and they are often the most crazy when they are in the most critical situations, and they gamble on the fortune of the country at every turn.

Di Bujia Gui Dazuo hurriedly said: "Your Excellency the commander of the reporting division, there is the 10th Infantry Wing, the 10th Cavalry Wing is on standby, and then there is a brigade of the engineer and baggage wing, as well as a field artillery wing. ”

Yoshio Shinozuka ordered: "Very good, I order you to immediately assemble the 10th Infantry Wing, the 10th Engineer Wing, the 10th Baggage Wing, and the field artillery brigade." Must go within two hours! ”

Di Bujia Gui Dazuo said in a panic: "Your Excellency, what are you?" ”

Yoshio Shinozuka pulled out his command knife, split the coffee table into two sides with a bang, and said in a deep voice: "Needless to say, the honor of the soldier and the honor and disgrace of the empire are here!" (To be continued......)
