Chapter 202: Man is shoveling in the first quarter of twelve hours

After the 1st Battalion of the 20th Regiment attacked the devil's camp at night with earth flying thunder, it was ready to return to Yinfang Town according to the order, and the time for the shovel monkey and the reconnaissance company and the cavalry company to hold on to it had not yet arrived, and another new task had arrived!

In view of the information constantly coming back from the front line, Yang Bangzi decided to readjust the deployment, for which he gave another order to hold on to the troops who were blocking the attack in Heiyaogou for another twelve hours, that is, the devils must be blocked until 6 o'clock in the evening.

The shovel monkey had already withdrawn the troops on the two hills, and the cavalry company, which had been hidden in the ravine on the west side of the road, had also moved to the edge of the platform, and he expected that a large number of the devils who had arrived would attack as soon as it was dawn, and at that time it was just time for the devils to waste shells, so they could evacuate.

But the information sent by the fast horse added another twelve hours to them, and the shovel monkey's originally relaxed expression suddenly became serious, twelve hours! It's not an hour or two hours, it's not the hundreds of devils yesterday, it's thousands of devils who are clearly shaking down the mountain!

The shovel monkey and the commander and instructor of the cavalry company, the deputy company commander and instructor of the reconnaissance company, the captain and acting political commissar of the county brigade held a simple meeting together. They all spoke, and it was decided that the reconnaissance company should be in front, the cavalry company should respond, and the county brigade would be ready to support both sides as a reserve.

Instead of yesterday's practice of holding off the enemy only on the east side of the road, the shovel monkey withdrew the reconnaissance company to a high platform, leaving two squads of troops on two hills. Attract enemy fire. The cavalry company occupied the ridges and mounds on the western side of the road. Prevent the enemy from making a detour from the west to the flank of the Black Kiln Ditch.

Gather all the ammo. Under the unified distribution, try to save bullets, and when the first battalion moved back to Yinfang Town, they left some ammunition, and the shovel monkey sent a team from the county brigade back to find Yang Bangzi to ask for some more ammunition, mainly mines, explosives bags and grenades.

As mentioned earlier, the times create heroes, and the native-born farmers can become warriors who make the devil tremble, and reckless heroes like the shovel monkey have been trained under Yang Bangzi for less than two years, and he is also a very good commander.

That being said. Following Yuan Shao is defeat, if you follow Cao Cao, you will be able to seal the territory, the shovel monkey young man is smart and clever, and Yang Stick's ability is a fur after he learns, which is enough for the little devil to drink a pot.

As soon as the morning dawned, the devils began to prepare for artillery fire, and the shovel monkey judged that it was not bad, and the Japanese army did not yet understand how the Eighth Road of Heiyaogou was deployed, so they could only cover the small hill and the top line of the highway slope that had been fiercely fought yesterday.

The two squads in the hill of Bauna hid in the artillery holes in the ravine behind, as if they were in a wagon carrying bumps on a rugged mountain road. The whole person was about to fall apart from the shock wave of the shell bombardment! Several soldiers were shaken and vomited, and breakfast was eaten in vain!

Hiding in the hole, the dirt face fluttered and fluttered straight up. It's a miasma, and it chokes people to death! But no one dares to go out to breathe, the ground is shaking, and I am afraid that there will not be even a slag left!

It's been really uncomfortable for dozens of minutes, everyone is sore and sore because of the shock, and after the shelling stops, everyone feels like a dream, and the dust in front of them is still swaying left and right!

The platoon commander who led the team heard that the shelling had stopped, and immediately beckoned everyone to come out of the hole and go to the position! shouted twice, and three or four people didn't move, and their ears were deaf! Pull it up and run to the mountain buns, at the foot of the mountain, the black pressure devil has begun to climb! Tanks on the road and, hypothetically, heavy machine guns on tracked vehicles also abruptly blocked the top of the hill.

There were more than 200 devil infantry in an offensive formation, attacking up to two small hills, the first line is the skirmisher line, the second line is the light machine gun and grenadier group, and the later point is a small group of infantry in the squad, and the relative height is only about 170 meters of small mountain packs.

"Fight when you get closer!" Eighty meters, sixty meters, fifty meters, the machine guns covering the devils on the road stopped firing, the skirmish line also stopped, the light machine guns of the second line clicked on the hillside, and the grenadiers also fired a few projectiles, which were tentative fire reconnaissance by the devils.

A few minutes later, the Japanese infantry team, believing that after so many shells on the mountain, it was impossible for any of the defenders to survive, and they all felt their guns and waists towards the mountain.

Forty meters, thirty meters, the Japanese skirmisher line and the fire support group of the second line were almost parallel, because they all wanted to be the first to board the enemy's position, just when the devils quickened their pace and began to scramble to climb up, the gun rang out! The grenade flew over, and the little Czech flare began to spit bullets briskly!

On the front, which is more than 40 meters wide, a Czech magazine sweeps back and forth, plus more than a dozen rifles and two grenades for one person, a total of about 30 grenades, and turns this slope approaching the top of the mountain into a slaughterhouse! The Japanese soldiers who were anxious to be the first to board just now will all regret that they ran too far!

The quality of the little devil is really good! As soon as he heard the gunshots during the run, he fell to the ground with a forward pounce, and from the road, a large area of the Yellow Plain on the slope of Banla Mountain was neatly lying down! One by one, head up, feet down, of course, there are a few head down, killed or wounded.

After the meeting and rectification, it did work, at least whether it was the chariot or the infantry team, they no longer had contempt for the Eighth Road, and it was clear from the reaction when Fang was attacked, all of them climbed the mountain with the usual training shelf, and their bodies were almost touching the ground, so they fell down a large area as soon as the gun rang out.

The tanks, heavy machine guns, and rapid-fire guns supporting the infantry on the road also reacted quite quickly, and the eighth road on the mountain bag only fired the second salvo, and the shells and bullets on the road counterattacked! The clods of earth and gravel were thrown around by shells and bullets, the front line of the bunkers of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army was blocked to death, the arms of the machine gunners were concentrated by shrapnel, and the machine guns were dumb all at once!

This is an infantry brigade seconded by the Kuroda Cavalry Wing from the 27th Division stationed in Tianjin, specializing in strengthening positional warfare, the 27th Division and the Eighth Road are old opponents, otherwise why did they fall down when they heard the gunshots, and the infantry in the convoy didn't know what to do when they heard the guns!

The fire support on the road dumbed the machine guns of the Eighth Route Army, and these sub-devil infantry bowed up, not charging straight, but still leaning over and almost rushing to the top of the hill as fast as the hillside, when the deputy shooter of the Eighth Route Army changed the magazine and fired again, the devils were already in front of them!

That Czech fire is almost at the devil's face! It's too late to throw the grenade, it's too close! It's too late to shout anything, they are all veterans, and they know what to do! Shoot a shot at the devil in the distance, and the closest one is the opponent of the white-knuckle battle! On the top of the mountain buns, which had been shattered by more than 40 minutes of shelling, more than a dozen soldiers of the Eighth Route Army stood up, plus the dozen or so devils who rushed up first, and they were almost full!

The devils who rushed up from behind couldn't step on the top of the mountain, so they could only wait on the periphery half a head shorter than others! A circle of devils surrounded the eight roads in a circle, dozens of bayonets jingled and wanted to hold them, from time to time someone let out a muffled snort or scream, two minutes later, the seven or eight devils' corpses were still bubbling with blood from the bayonet penetrated wounds, and five soldiers of the Eighth Route Army also fell in a pool of blood.

The task of these two squads was to move immediately after delaying the attack of the devils, but they did not expect that the Japanese troops who came this time were very cunning, and when they spread out the formation at the foot of the mountain, the suppressive fire on the road did not stop, until these devils were almost close to the top of the mountain, the fire on the road stopped, as soon as the soldiers opened fire, the devil's infantry immediately fell on the ground, and the tanks and heavy machine guns on the road poured shells and bullets like water!
