The vegetation on the outskirts of Tangji was very dense, and the brothers who had gone out to scout were running between the bushes and the woods, and they were basically running in a straight line towards Tangji.

"Huhuhu......"

Depressions, ridges, ditches, and all other terrain that blocks them quickly pass by in their eyes, and jumping, rolling, and other actions are easy in their hands, as if they are the natives of this land.

"Devils, devils are coming!"

Running into the position, the two brothers bent over, their hands on their knees and kept panting, although they were from Orion, but running at full speed for so long had overwhelmed their lungs.

"Well, how many devils are there?"

Feng Ye had already arrived at the position, he watched the two brothers rush into the trench, and the people were still at one end of the trench, but the voice sounded.

"Commander?"

"Why are you here?"

A brother looked at Feng Ye who appeared and asked in surprise.

"Speak quickly!"

Feng Yi asked with a frown.

"When we left, we only saw the devil's tanks, at least ten; I don't know how much more there is behind, it's all smoke and dust. ”

Another brother reported the situation.

"Okay! Go down and rest! ”

Feng Yi nodded.

"What about Li Chang?"

Feng Ye shouted, he had been in the position for five minutes, why hadn't he seen the engineer company commander.

"Commander, I'm here!"

Li Chang also ran over, his face was covered with dust, and with the help of sweat, he was already a big face.

"The devil's tanks are coming, at least ten; If they want to come in, they must pass through the road next to the high ground, and the cannonballs on the high ground will not be detonated first, and let them go; I only ask for one thing, then the shells under the sharp bend, the first wave of detonation must blow up a wave of devil tanks for me, if there are infantry in front of them, you don't care, only bomb the tank, do you understand? ”

Feng Ye explained loudly.

"Understood!"

Li Chang nodded and left, he wanted the platoon leader to personally stare at the detonation of the cannonballs on the road, the first wave, the devil must be blown up.

"Woo woo woo ......"

"Squeak, squeak......"

In the roar of the engine, the tracks of the tank ran over the dirt road, creaking and screaming; The 56th Division, which was responsible for interspersing the encirclement, did not have so much heavy equipment, they had to shuttle through the woods and on the trails, and the actual situation did not allow them to carry heavy equipment at all; However, since the capture of Moltke, the Japanese 15th Army Headquarters has changed its mind, and in order to allow the 56th Division to quickly intersperse with the adjustments made in Lashio, he even transferred the vehicles originally used by the baggage troops to transport ammunition and supplies to the 56th Division, just hoping that the 56th Division can quickly penetrate to Lashio to cut off the rear route of the Chinese Expeditionary Force.

However, the mechanized corps that appeared outside Tangji did not all have Japanese Type 95 tanks, and half of the tanks were British Mark light tanks; The tank is followed by the car, and the car is even more, sixty percent of the cars are American-style cars; There is no doubt that the British served as a transport captain, and after the Japanese captured these things, they took them and used them as a sharp weapon against the Chinese army.

"Your Excellency Nakasa, there is Tang Ji in front."

The tank in front slowly stopped, a Nakasa officer jumped out of the cab, and a devil officer held a map and pointed ahead.

"Yo Xi, let the tanks and artillery prepare, the 159 heights must be taken first, cover there with firepower, let the first squadron attack with artillery fire, and take the forward position."

Officer Nakasa pointed to the map, and the 159 heights he said were the same heights next to the highway, and their information was too accurate, and the entire topography of Tangji was completely on their map.

"Your Excellency Zhongzuo, I don't think it's necessary at all, just divide the troops into two ways, attack Tangji and the 159 heights at the same time, and you can take it with one charge."

A young officer proudly suggested that in their intelligence, there was nothing that the Chinese army on the eastern route could fight, and the combat effectiveness of the Sixth Army, which was a descendant of the Chinese government, was not at all good, and the previous battles had been fully explained; The garrison in Tangji is not even the Central Army, it is a group of recruits formed by the troops, and it did not collapse directly in the first round of gaps, which has already made the devil admire.

"Don't underestimate the enemy, Tang Ji is very important, the combat effectiveness of the recruit troops is not good, but I am afraid that they will fight hard; The task of our division is to make a roundabout Lashio, and there must not be too many losses, which will be detrimental to the later battles; Execute the order! ”

Officer Nakasa shook his head, although the orders he received were to break through quickly, intersperse and detour, but he was still very cautious about the battle, after all, he could now be regarded as a lone army, and once he suffered a large loss, he would be surrounded by the Chinese army at any time.

"Hello!"

"Fast, fast, fast......"

The devil officer shouted, and the mountain cannon was removed from behind the butt of the truck, and the mountain cannon towed by the car helped them a lot.

"Squeak......"

At the same time, the tanks of the devils were also moving forward, and behind them, a squadron of infantry moved forward with the tanks.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The shells of the mountain artillery crossed the tanks and fell on the high ground, where the vegetation was very good, and the devils could not see people and cover, but that didn't matter, as long as it was blown up once, everything would come out.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

As the shells fell, the sand and gravel flew into the air, and the bushes and trees flew into the air under the fire, and then slammed into the ground.

The 159 highlands are said to be highlands, but in fact they are a little higher mountain bags next to the road, but this mountain bag is a bit big, and most of the mountains are full of stones, but the stones are not big, but there are many shrubs and trees in between, and it is very difficult to build a bunker.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

As if they didn't want money, the devil's shells kept bombarding the high ground until all the bushes and trees on the mountain were burned in the shelling.

Why is this high ground the best machine-gun position for the attacking side? Because there is a large area in the middle of the high ground where there are no stones, it is all dirt, and it is enough to build a machine-gun position here, just make a ring of sandbags around it.

Of course, if the defenders had air support and a large number of artillery, this would be a death, but unfortunately, Tangji's defenders did not have artillery.

"Kill and give!"

The cannon fire gradually stopped, and the devil officer brandished his command knife and roared frantically, ordering the soldiers to start attacking.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

The heavy machine guns on the tanks fired at the hills, and wherever the devils suspected, they were taken care of by machine gun bullets.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

The devil held his rifle and finally ascended to the high ground step by step.

"Yo Xi, occupy positions and prevent the Chinese from counterattacking."

The squadron leader who led the attack was puzzled, no corpses of Chinese soldiers were found on the mountain, and no one stopped their attack, and the Chinese soldiers seemed to have not prepared to attack and defend here from the beginning.

"Haha...... Stupid Shina people; The tanks were ordered to move on, accompanied by the second squadron; The heavy machine gun immediately went up the hill and built a position......"

The devil who got the reward didn't feel that the shells were wasted, at least the devils didn't have to clean up the shooting area now, and after a round of bombing, there were no trees to block their shooting.
