Chapter 866: Killing a Brigade (First Update!) )

"Zhou Ze, Li Wen, the two of you continue to cooperate, approach the train station as quietly as possible, and then suddenly launch an attack, quickly take the train station with lightning speed, and don't give the little devil any chance to react!" Wang Ping ordered with excitement on his face.

At dawn the next day, the Japanese puppet army that attacked the fourth battalion set out.

At this moment, in a hilly and mountainous area less than two hours away from them, more than 4,000 people from the two regiments of the brigade directly under the military region were all lying in ambush here. However, neither the little devil planes cruising back and forth in the sky, nor the reconnaissance troops that the little devils set off in advance, did not find them.

"Commander, the troops have been lurked, and all of them are covered with thatch, which can keep them warm and concealed, killing ......two birds with one stone," the commander of the first regiment of the brigade directly under him ordered both nervously and expectantly.

You know, after two hours, a brigade of little devils will enter the ambush circle.

The devil of a whole brigade, since the establishment of the brigade directly under it, has not even eliminated a complete infantry squadron, let alone an infantry brigade.

As long as the directly subordinate brigade can take out this infantry brigade, the regiment commander is sure that the reputation of the directly subordinate brigade can be fought out in this battle alone.

"Good job, the devil plane flew over our heads just now, and we didn't notice it, which means that you were very successful in camouflage!" The brigade commander was also very pleased with this result.

After hesitating for a moment, he ordered: "Notify the troops, give me stability, without an order, even if the little devil walks up, he can't make a sound, let alone shoot to expose the target in advance!" Also, the artillery is ready! ”

The commander of the first regiment immediately reported: "Three mortar batteries, one infantry artillery company, and one thunder artillery company, all of them are ready for battle, and the muzzles of the guns are all facing the road at the foot of the mountain, so as to ensure that the first hit is made." In addition, Commander Wang also strengthened their engineer platoon to ambush us...... You don't know, those people don't look good, but when it comes to dealing with devils, they are no more ruthless than them~"

"Twenty bags of explosives, all of which they buried on the road and then strung together with wires. When the time comes, these twenty explosives packs alone will be able to kill at least one squadron of imps in an instant! ”

At ten o'clock in the morning, the figure of the devil's forward unit finally entered the commander's field of vision.

The cruising cover of the overhead aircraft gave them nothing to worry about the hilly area they were about to pass.

The forward troops continued their advance with only a few volleys of bullets from machine guns.

Soon, the main force of the little devils entered the ambush circle, more than 1,000 devils, more than 300 puppet troops, four mountain guns, two infantry guns, plus mortars and heavy machine guns carried on the shoulders of the Japanese puppet army, and the team was dragged for eight or nine hundred meters.

"Start attacking!" The commander ordered with a serious look on the battlefield.

The three signal flares of "Bang ......" rose into the air at the same time, and the moment they exploded, the battlefield that was still quiet just now became a burst of gunfire in an instant.

"Boom ......"

The twenty bags of explosives that had been trampled under the feet of the devils exploded first, and the violent explosion was as deafening as thunder.

In the blink of an eye, a stretch of nearly 200 meters of road in the ambush circle was shrouded in smoke from explosives.

"Woooooooooo......oo Boom Boom Boom ......"

The artillery was not far behind and joined the battle, and the gunners got their first taste of firing the twelve mortars equipped with two companies, and one shell after another, as if they were not going to pay for money, were smashed on the road.

The devils were blinded at once, and the firepower of the Eighth Route Army attacking them was too fierce, and they fired bullets at them regardless of consumption.

By the time the captain of the devil brigade reacted from the shock, more than half of the troops had already been lost.

Especially on the section of the road that was detonated by the explosives package, the three or four hundred imperial troops were all planted on the ground......

The captain immediately realized that he had encountered a hard stubble, and immediately decided to occupy a nearby high ground to keep his troops as much as possible, and then decide whether to break through or not.

"Commander, the devil rushed towards the high ground defended by the first regiment and three battalions!" The chief of staff of the brigade standing next to the commander reminded with a frown.

As soon as the words of "boom, boom, boom ......" were finished, an explosion sounded on the high ground defended by the third battalion.

A few mortars that the devil hastily dragged over shelled the third battalion with shells that could fall at any time above their heads.

In the violent explosion, more than 100 little devils, armed with rifles and light machine guns, rushed to the top of the mountain in a completely lifeless posture.

"Order the artillery, immediately kill the remaining mortars of the little devils, support the three battalions, and hold the high ground!" The commander commanded with a frown.

"The high ground must not be occupied by devils, they have air support, once we occupy the high ground, if we want to recapture it against the bombing of their planes, we will definitely have to pay a very heavy price!"

After saying that, the commander held a telescope and continued to observe the battlefield.

By this time, the road that had been blown up by twenty explosives bags was slowly visible, and it was right in the middle of the ambush circle. The corpses of devils everywhere directly divided the Japanese puppet army into two.

The commander's eyes lit up, and he immediately ordered: "The second regiment and one battalion, immediately attack, occupy the road that the explosives package blew up just now, divide the little devils in two, and then launch an attack on the Japanese puppet troops on both sides to compress their living space!" ”

"Boom ......" At this moment, a string of explosions louder than the explosion of a shell reached the ears of the commander.

Then several fireballs mixed with a large amount of black smoke rose from the road in front of the three battalions.

More than 100 little devils who were attacking, whether they were lying on the ground or continuing to rush to the high ground, as long as they were within the killing range of the explosive pack, all fell to the ground and never got up again.

"It's a new regiment of flying thunder artillery companies, their reaction speed is really fast, a round of explosives is smashed down, and the little devil's offensive is disintegrated...... Commander, the positions of the three battalions are held! The chief of staff said with a look of surprise on his face.

"Buzz ......"

I didn't rejoice for too long, and the roar of the plane came.

The chief of staff and the commander both changed color at the same time and looked up at the sky.

At the end of the field of vision, two black dots appeared in the sky, getting bigger and bigger.

"The little devil plane is here...... Trumpeter, blow the trumpet, attack with all of them, strangle with the rest of the Japanese puppet army, kill them with bayonets and pistols......"

"All artillery units, immediately transferred, concealed ......"

At the headquarters of the Japanese army brigade in Xiangfen County, Major General Kawaguchi did not realize at all that the troops he sent out were being wiped out by the Eighth Route Army one after another, and he was still imagining how he would destroy the new regiment on a huge combat map, and then completely control Linfen!

At this time, the chief of staff who suddenly rushed into the war room interrupted his sweet dream!
