Capture the Ghost Gate Pass (2)
After a day and a half of arduous trekking, Liu Xiaoshan and his assault team finally walked out of the roadless mountains and returned to the Japanese army in the Ghost Gate Pass. "Mortars are setting up positions here, and when we retreat, they are attacking! The team is divided into three parts, one to attack the enemy headquarters, one to attack the enemy's field warehouse, and one to attack its communications squadron, the action must be fast, the firepower must be fierce, after the fight, they will retreat under the cover of mortar fire, retreat to the mountains on both sides, and attack the Japanese defense troops at the Guimen Pass from behind, and the inside and outside should be combined to eliminate the Japanese troops at the Guimen Pass! Liu Xiaoshan simply told him about his plan. Got it! "The captains of the three commandos are all battalion and company commanders, and they are naturally familiar with this kind of thing! Liu Xiaoshan's three assault teams began to assault, and the Japanese army knew that in addition to a rush to build a military road behind them, it was deep in the mountains and old forests, and there would be no danger at all, and no one thought about this matter at all, which created a good premise for Liu Xiaoshan's assault operation. "Throw a few * into it first, then rush in and shoot, if you want to die, don't live, rush!" Liu Xiaoshan's assault team rushed into the Japanese headquarters along the mountains and forests, dozens of * flew in first, and then there were dense bullets, the Japanese guard troops did not react at all, and were caught off guard, the Japanese command headquarters company division commander with staff officers, as well as the guard squadron and a cadre of officers, under the powerful firepower of the American system, was killed by Liu Xiaoshan within ten minutes!
When Liu Xiaoshan acted, the other two commandos also began to attack, the Japanese army's field warehouse was not heavily guarded, there were less than fifty Japanese guards, and a large group of soldiers and were using a trolley to transport ammunition to the Guimenguan position, the second commando team directly killed in, the dense * firepower completely suppressed the Japanese army's single-shot rifles and Type 92 machine guns, coupled with the huge power of *, the assault team rushed in within a few minutes, and the * that had been prepared for a long time was loaded in the key position of the warehouse, under the cover of machine gun fire, the assault team began to retreat to the slopes of the hills on both sides, and detonated *, and all the ammunition and supplies of the Japanese army were blown up in an instant! Another assault force attacked the Japanese army's communications squadron and field hospital, the commander of this assault force was a resolute anti-Japanese general, hated the Japanese to the core, rushed into a burst of horizontal killing, and all the soldiers and wounded in the Japanese army's communications squadron and field hospital were killed cleanly! Liu Xiaoshan's assault action played a major role, the Japanese headquarters was destroyed, the ammunition was blown up, and the Japanese troops in the front of the Guimen Pass position suddenly fell into a dead place!
"Keep attacking!" Li Hongming roared, and continued to attack with his soldiers, "The vanguard battalion is dead, let's fill it in, this battle is the first battle of my expeditionary force's counteroffensive can only be won, and today the Ghost Gate Pass is our burial place, rush!" Li Hongming charged forward with a machine gun, and the soldiers dared to take half a step back, and rushed forward closely after Li Hongming. Li Hongming is not a fool, he dared to rush up by himself, he had already called the infantry's 20 mm small cannon to advance with the army, and eliminated the Japanese army's firepower points one by one at close range, and the ghost artillery in the rear also pushed the cannon to the front line, and personally operated the artillery to carry out accurate bombardment, the Japanese army's firepower points were already barely resisting under the attack of the shock troops, coupled with the ghost artillery's almost miraculous point target shooting technology, the Japanese army's position was already precarious! However, just as the attacking troops were about to attack the Ghost Gate Pass, several shells and a large number of machine-gun bullets were fired at the attacking expeditionary force troops, and the dozen or so soldiers who rushed to the front were immediately planted!
"Fuck me!" Li Hongming looked at the bunker group of the last Japanese army and scolded angrily! This group of bunkers is very strong, and all of them are under the ground, the firing range is low, and the attack is sharp, not to mention the artillery, even the 20-millimeter cannon cannot attack, Li Hongming organized more than a dozen blasting operations, all of which were killed by the Japanese army's covert fire. "Thousands of mountains and rivers have come, blocked by such a stone, organize sharpshooters to attack the enemy's hidden fire, organize a demolition team to continue to attack, I don't believe it!" Li Hongming shouted. "This can't be done, battalion commander, the main buildings of the other party's bunker are underground, only the shooting port is exposed, and our people can't destroy it when they rush up, and they can't rush hard!" A company commander said. "Then what to do, there are less than a hundred people left in my battalion, if I can't take it, how can I be worthy of so many dead brothers!" Li Hongming was a little red-eyed! "I suggest sending sappers to dig a trench on the spot, as long as they can use earthwork to get close to his bunker, as long as they detonate with *, they can be killed!" The company commander suggested. "How long will that take? It will take at least half a day to dig through, and I'm afraid that before they dig through, the devil's counterattack will already come! Li Hongming said, "Give me *!" "As he spoke, he was about to rush forward, but at this time, a dull gunfire came from the Japanese bunker, and after a while, a blue sky and white sun flag fluttered on the firing port of the Japanese bunker!" It's Captain Liu! Li Hongming said happily.
Liu Xiaoshan used a walkie-talkie to contact the assault team that had withdrawn from the attack, and ordered them to march from both flanks and attack according to the trench passage of the Japanese army! The two-way assault team launched an attack on the front line of the Japanese army, because they were not very familiar with the trenches of the Japanese army, they fought for a long time in vain but did not know how to get in, and finally rushed in, and found that the wounded soldiers of the Japanese army and the Japanese troops who withdrew were all hidden in a hidden soldier cave to avoid artillery, Liu Xiaoshan did not hesitate, wrapped in a military uniform, and exploded the Japanese army's hiding hole in one fell swoop, and more than 200 Japanese soldiers were suffocated to death by Liu Xiaoshan inside! "Attack along the communication trenches and open the passage for the troops in front!" Liu Xiaoshan rushed forward with the assault team, and in a short time he killed more than 100 Japanese soldiers and rushed into the bunker group of the Japanese army! "This bunker is too immoral, if we hadn't killed it from behind, the troops in front would have really died and wouldn't have been able to enter, and it deserved to be a ghost gate!" Liu Xiaoshan muttered a sentence and rushed in with people, the Japanese soldiers all paid attention to the front, they didn't expect that a strange soldier would come in behind them, and they were caught off guard when they were killed!
"The ghost gate has been taken!" A staff officer excited about the report. "Great!" Liu Hai said happily, "As long as the Ghost Gate Pass is opened, it is equivalent to opening the passage for the counterattack in northern Myanmar, and I will inform Division Commander Sun," "It has been reported, Division Commander Sun is leading the follow-up troops to occupy the Ghost Gate Pass, and our artillery will also move forward!" The staff officer said, "But there is still a little problem, the three wings of the Japanese army that attacked the British army before have been left outside the Ghost Gate, how to deal with it now?" "The British Empire is well armed and the soldiers are brave, and they should be destroyed, if there is an order from General Stilwell!" Bangs said. "That's right! What about the liaison officers? The staff officer asked. Tell them to go up to the ghost gate to see if we can take it or not! Bangs said. In order not to get in the way of taking a few big noses, Bangs put a little stuff in when he was drinking the day before, but those big noses haven't woken up until now! Now that the ghost gate has been taken down, it's time for them to wake up!
In fact, at this time, the British army outside the Ghost Gate Pass now even has the heart to die, and they originally wanted to get some cheapness, but the damn Japanese just rushed at themselves, and the Japanese soldiers' desperate charge and amazing stabbing skills gave the British a headache, and a division of British troops was in danger under the attack of three wings! "Reinforcements! Where's the damn reinforcements? The British division commander shouted. We have already received a telegram that the Chinese are concentrating all their forces on attacking the Ghost Gate Pass, and there is no way to draw troops to support us, and besides, the old fellow Stilwell will not agree, but General Wavell has already sent a division to reinforcements, and we only need to hold out for a day! The British staff officer said. In fact, at this time, because Liu Xiaoshan killed the communication squadron of the Japanese division as quickly as possible, the news that the Japanese division headquarters was eliminated did not spread, and the Japanese wing that was attacking the British army did not know it, and was still desperately attacking the British army. Wavell learned that his division was surrounded, and sent another division to reinforce it, and after two British divisions and the Japanese fought for two days and three nights, both sides suffered heavy casualties, and after learning that the Ghost Gate Pass had been occupied by the expeditionary force, the Japanese began to retreat into the jungle!
"What are these Japanese doing pushing into the jungle, it's reckless over there, and it's very likely that they won't be able to get out!" A company commander asked. "Whatever, let them taste the taste of the Eight Hundred Miles Savage Mountain!" The battalion commander said. In fact, after the Japanese army retreated into the jungle, they did not judge the direction clearly, and under the blow of the British Air Force, they stumbled all the way, and finally the remaining dozens of Japanese soldiers walked out of the jungle and returned to the 55th Division of the Japanese army, and the remaining more than 2,000 Japanese soldiers who retreated into the jungle were killed in the jungle! The Jiuming Division of the Japanese Army was wiped out in the Ghost Gate Pass by two divisions of the Expeditionary Force and two divisions of the British Army! The breach of the Ghost Gate Pass directly announced the beginning of the expeditionary force's counteroffensive, but the British army had to withdraw due to heavy casualties and was taken over by the American gendarmerie battalion. Half a month later, two other divisions of the British army arrived, and the expeditionary force was free to continue its eastward advance! However, the Japanese army was not vegetarian, and after learning the news of the expeditionary force's counteroffensive, they concentrated two divisions and planned to stop the expeditionary force in the east of the Hukang River Valley! At this time, Liu Hai had already moved the cannon forward as best he could, preparing to attack another important pass of the Japanese army, Valan Town. The town of Valan concentrated about two divisions of Japanese troops. One of the two divisions of the Japanese army was the famous Sixth Division, which was not only the enemy, but also the murderer of the Nanjing Massacre! After discussing with Liu Hai, Sun Liren decided to give the Sixth Division the treatment of not accepting surrender!
