Chapter 682: Thunder Offensive!
In the end, Peng Shan did not receive support from the two mountain artillery battalions of the military headquarters, and Huang Wei agreed to replenish the 11th Division with five mortars, ten heavy machine guns, and the rest of the ammunition and materials were also replenished first.
"Send a report to Mei Chunhua and Yin Zuogan, order ......"
Peng Shan, who was satisfied, ended the arguing, and he also knew that this was Commander Chen's order, no matter how difficult it was now, the 11th Division must carry out the order.
"Someone, give the 61st Regiment and the 62nd Regiment an order, all of them will attack tonight, and advance towards the Sun Village, this attack, there is no need to worry about the defense line behind them, their goal is to build a defensive position on the line under the Hong, cut off the supply line of the 27th Division......"
Mei Chunhua looked at the telegram and slapped the map, in a few days of attack, the 31st Brigade had already attacked nearly ten kilometers forward, and they were less than five kilometers away from Sun Village, but if they wanted to turn to attack, their attack distance was still more than ten kilometers, and it was only possible to use a thunder offensive to break through quickly before the devil could react.
"Brigade commander, is the brigade headquarters joining them?"
Feng Yi stared at the map, he originally felt that the current position of the brigade headquarters was too far away from the first-line troops, if the two regiments attacked again, the brigade headquarters would become the only unit nearby, and the devils would intersperse the attack, and a squadron-level attack would put the entire brigade headquarters in danger.
"Are you worried that the devil will break through from here again?"
Mei Chunhua asked.
"Yes, devils are good at outflanking; Brigade commander, you see, in front of us, the 31st Brigade and the 33rd Brigade will attack again, leaving too big a gap in the battlefield, and the devils can attack at will, and may even threaten the flanks of the 60th Division and the new 23rd Division. ”
Feng Ye pointed to the map, trying to persuade Mei Chunhua to attack with the large army, in Feng Jie's opinion, even if he followed the army to attack, the danger was much less than here.
"The horse leather shroud is originally the fate of the soldiers, do a good job of defense, and scatter the sentries farther away; Now that we are attacking, the devils can either withdraw the troops attacking the 60th Division and the New 23rd Division to return to defense, or they will face the situation of being divided and surrounded by us. ”
Mei Chunhua waved his hand and did not agree to transfer the brigade headquarters, in his heart, he was stuck here, and his role was not just as simple as a position; If the devils want to intersperse sneak attacks, it is useless to have fewer troops, and if there are more troops, it will be easier for the troops on the front line to implement the strategic intentions of the theater of operations.
"If my life can be exchanged for the 27th Division being annihilated, then I will kill myself without hesitation."
Mei Chunhua looked at the sky, this calamity, every Chinese is burdened with a mission, he is a major general brigade commander, there is nothing special, the general who died on the battlefield, he is not the first, and will not be the last.
"Yes!"
Feng Yi couldn't understand why Mei Chunhua had to stay here, but now he had to carry out the order.
"Drive!"
Several signal soldiers stepped onto their horses, whipped their horses' buttocks vigorously, and rushed to the positions of the 61st and 62nd regiments in the afterglow of the setting sun......
"Division commander, the 11th Division attacked for five days in a row, all at night, more than 10 of our strongholds were lost, and more than 300 people were killed in the second wing......"
At the headquarters of the 27th Division, the Japanese staff officers were reporting to the division commander, and after a day's engagement, they still made no progress in the face of the positions of the 18th Army.
"The Eleventh Division will certainly continue the offensive, and order the Second Wing to assemble after Taiyangzhai and Henggang, and repair and stand by; Order, the baggage wing distributed weapons, and they took over the position, so as to consume the combat effectiveness of the 11th Division to the maximum. ”
"Let the special high class continue to investigate and find a safe interspersed route; Since the squadron is attacking, if they don't have supporting troops, there will be a big gap in this area, which is enough for us to implement the tactics of interspersed encirclement! ”
Masaharu Honma, the commander of the 27th Division, was not a fool, and he was also looking for fighters on the scorching battlefield.
"Starting tomorrow, the reconnaissance company will search for all suspicious targets within a radius of five kilometers in small groups, and report immediately if a large-scale force of devils is found."
Feng Ye had no choice but to do his best.
"It's just looking for a devil, Cheng."
Gao Yurong nodded, anyway, he had nothing to do in the past few days, so letting the brothers move around a little more was considered training.
"Suspicious targets are all living creatures that shouldn't be on the battlefield, don't you understand?"
Feng asked.
"I understand, you mean that the devil may be plainclothes to investigate and pretend to be ordinary people?"
"Battalion commander, don't worry about this, within a radius of two kilometers nearby, there are people, and the people have already fled the disaster."
Gao Yurong nodded, there are many sources of information for devils, not to mention that devils are pretending to be common people, even the natives are not credible now, and the devils have planted too many spies in China.
"Including the soldiers who are in the middle of the cross, who do not have an officer ID card, and are not the troops of the 31st Brigade, they must pay attention; Do you understand? ”
Feng Yi's words have been obvious, and in this situation, he is unwilling to believe anyone.
"Yes!"
Gao Yurong nodded cautiously, this time Feng Ye said it so obviously, if he still understood, he would really break his head in the war.
"Bang, bang, bang......"
"Da Da Da ......"
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
On September 16, just after nightfall, the 61st Regiment and the 62nd Regiment launched an attack on the Devils' position together amid the earth-shattering shouts of killing, and the mountain artillery battalion directly under the 11th Division was responsible for cooperating with them.
"Captain Long has started attacking, go around, let's go to the next stronghold."
In the dark, Luo Xianda did not let the sixty-second regiment also get involved, there were two strongholds in front of him, and the sixty-first regiment could be easily taken, and the two regiments attacked separately, so they could pull out more strongholds in the dark.
"Kill!"
"Da Da Da ......"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
With the help of machine guns, mortars, and mountain artillery, the 61st and 62nd Regiments had approached Taiyangzhai until the early morning of 17 September.
"Report, the 103 and 107 strongholds are lost, and the squadron is approaching the 116 and 118 strongholds."
"Report, the 116 and 118 strongholds have been lost, and all four squads of the baggage wing have been broken ......"
……
At the headquarters of the 27th Division, Honma Accord, who had been asleep, was finally woken up by the battle report, and the thunderous offensive of the 31st Brigade surprised this old devil, and he had to admit in his heart that he had underestimated the combat effectiveness of China's elite troops.
"Yaga!"
"Order the Third Wing to send a squadron and station in Sun Village, Sun Village cannot be lost!"
Honma Accord slapped the table, if the Sun Village was lost, then the troops he had assembled would have to face the peak of the squadron, so that his interspersed plan might fail.
"Hello!"
The staff officer bowed down to receive the order and went to convey the order.
"Is there any news from the special high class?"
The red-eyed Accord turned his head and asked his chief of staff.
"Your Excellency, there is no news at this time."
The chief of staff was also confused, the order just issued in the afternoon, the special high class was not so fast, even if it was using local spies, it was impossible to get the news so quickly.
