Liujiawan is relatively still in the hinterland of the mountains, and there are generally only two ways for large troops to pass there. One is bypassing the mountain village, and the other is through a treacherous valley.

It doesn't matter in peacetime, but in the war years, in the current situation of the devil, these two paths are not easy to choose.

This road around the mountain village is easy to be discovered by the Eighth Route Army here, and it loses the effect of the surprise attack, and the little devil has suffered such a loss before.

But the other way is even less desirable. Under that kind of dangerous valley, once the enemy has an ambush, it is really a call for the heavens and the earth.

The gang under Mta Terada had to at least peel off the skin to escape back, and if they didn't get it right, they would have to break their muscles and bones.

With great benefits comes great risks, which is an extremely difficult choice. Fortunately, the sparrow battle of the Eighth Route Army has already made a choice for him. Kazuta Terada did not hesitate to choose the mountain village road.

When they arrived, they found that the village was already empty.

The old devil didn't care, but just ordered a squad leader to take a company of puppet troops to guard the commanding heights of this road to ensure that the way back was safe and sound.

The little devil continued to move forward, blowing up two mines from time to time, sending several puppet soldiers into the sky.

In a hurry, there were also soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who fired cold guns and attacked the marching team.

And this time, the old devil was not only not angry, but became more and more happy.

The puppet army in the front row was not enough, and he was so timid that he wanted to retreat, so he asked the devil gendarmes to put machine guns behind the puppet army and force them to work for their lives.

There were soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who fired cold shots, and he only let the grenadier group counterattack, and the large army continued to advance without stopping.

Finally, within the planned time, they rushed to Liujiawan.

However, the order given by Kazuta Terada startled everyone except the adjutant.

"Taijun, aren't we here to sweep Liujiawan and deal with the eight roads here? Why do you want to surround a mountain? Zhao Xingwang asked puzzled.

Looking at the troops acting separately on both sides, Kazuta Terada felt much less resentful about being attacked along the way, and he said excitedly: "Zhao Jun, do you know why we are here?" ”

"Of course, it's a blow to the dirt eight roads."

Ita Terada shook his head and said smugly: "Dirt Eight Roads are like earth rats, unless they can be taken by surprise, they will have slipped away a long time ago."

I'm almost sure there won't be a dog in Liujiawan right now. All have been evacuated. ”

Zhao Xingwang was even more confused, and he secretly thought in his heart: It turns out that you still know about this stubble. The dirt and eight roads have run away, so what are you chasing this fool, so that hundreds of Lao Tzu's subordinates have died here.

Of course, Tita Terada didn't know what Zhao Xingwang was complaining about, he looked at this dazed subordinate and explained, "How can Captain Ichiro Hirata provide general information?

On this mountain, there is an arsenal on Tuba Road, and the mines within a radius of hundreds of miles on Tuba Road all come out of here. As long as we blow up this arsenal, the Imperial Japanese Army will not have to be afraid of enemy mines. ”

Zhao Xingwang suddenly realized, no wonder the little devil had to rush with his life despite such a big casualty.

And Dirt Eight Road is still careless at first, but the more you get to it, the more crazy it becomes. Knowing that exposing the target is death, you have to expose your body to attract attention!

At this time, the squadron leader who was responsible for surrounding Liujiawan came back to report that there were really people in Liujiawan, and there was not even a dog.

And the other squadron leader who is responsible for surrounding the hill has not been sent back yet! At the foot of the mountain, there was a violent explosion, and several mines blew up the little devils into the sky.

What followed was the sound of gunshots like fried beans, crackling and hilarious.

Kazuta Terada was even more excited, which confirmed his conjecture that the Tsuchihachi Road had not yet been transferred, and the arsenal was over there.

He didn't bother to take care of Liujiawan, he just ordered the puppet army to burn down the village, and the rest of the people all participated in the task of encircling Tuba Road.

And at this moment, on the hill of this arsenal, Rao Guohua and his company, relying on the arranged minefield and the designed blocking point, are fighting against the devils under the mountain.

They are all engaged in big expansion, and of course they are not lagging behind.

There are more than 400 people, which is enough for the establishment of a battalion. Sprinkled on this mountain, although it looks sparse everywhere, it is defended everywhere, and it seems invulnerable.

The heavy machine guns were not swinged, but with crooked handles, Czech, all sorts of messy rifles, plus plenty of grenades for the fighters, the mines had already been laid at the foot of the hill.

The little devil attacked for half an hour, but he only broke through the first layer of defense, and he didn't climb far from the foot of the mountain!

Kazuta Terada had already been mentally prepared for this, and after experiencing the battle of Hutou Mountain, he had a clear understanding of the Eighth Route Army's defense capability based on the mountain.

Such an important place, so many dirt roads, if he attacked it in two hits, he had to wonder if he had encountered a fake eight roads.

"Haruta-kun, the Dirt Eighth Road is guarded by the mountain, and there is about a battalion of troops. What do you think we should do? Kazuta Terada asked, instructing his men.

Captain Yoichi Haruta was a squadron leader who had experienced the Battle of Hutou Mountain, and he later summed up the lessons and learned and also considered what to do if he encountered it again, which came in handy at this time.

Turning around, he said, "Your Excellency Shaozuo, I have three thoughts about attacking the mountain.

First of all, Tubalu is extremely good at using mines, so the striker should choose the Imperial Allied Army to play the role.

Second, attacking the hill should not be rushed for quick success, but should give full play to our side's sufficient ammunition advantage and its countervail.

The ammunition of the Tubalu is still relatively lacking, and after a long time, they don't even have bullets, let alone resist.

Finally, we should also give full play to our superiority in firepower and remove the firepower points of the Tuba Road. I think it will be easier to storm the hill when the four French guns arrive. ”

Kazuta Terada nodded, looking very satisfied, and his subordinates thought of going with him.

He brought the four French cannons, and in addition to trying to fish, he wanted to use them here. The extremely powerful field artillery used to hit such a hard hill was much stronger than the four mortars in his hand.

"Haruta-kun, order the Imperial Alliance Army to continue the attack, and you are responsible for supervising them."

"Hey."

Spring Yiyang excitedly agreed.

The whole brigade regarded this mountain attack battle as an opportunity to wash away the shame.

That's right, it's to wash away the shame.

In the first battle of Hutou Mountain, although they tried their best to argue, they believed that the enemy had at least one company, or even one battalion.

But judging from the cleaning of the battlefield, the enemy left only a small number of corpses, which does not at all correspond to the statement of such a large number of people.

And their sweeping brigade, the casualties are simply miserable. It is said that Terada Ichi Shaozo not only had no chance to be promoted to Zhongzuo, but was also slapped several times by the captain of the wing and nailed to the pillar of shame.

If he hadn't spilled all the antiques he had looted in China, he would have nothing to do with the position of captain. So this battle, they are bound to win
