Fast forward to late afternoon.

The fighting around the Genqi area of the first anti-Japanese detachment in the northwest of Shanxi continued.

It's just that at this time, the operation has been transformed from a large-scale confrontation to a local strangulation.

The more than 5,000 Japanese puppet troops that originally advanced to the southwest successfully withdrew more than 1,000 elite Japanese troops.

The two devil brigades of the 47th Division of the Japanese army stationed in Yuncheng, which were originally advancing northward, also successfully withdrew more than 1,000 people and retreated to Jinnan.

As for the few puppet regiments that participated in the war, they were basically wiped out or captured by the independent regiment.

The local battle continued, and it was the Japanese army that was divided and surrounded by the soldiers.

Compared with the weak combat consciousness of the puppet army to surrender at every turn, although these surrounded little devils are only second-rate security army troops, their combat awareness is still quite strong, and they will not surrender easily if they do not fight to the last person.

In the face of these recalcitrant Japanese criminals, Kong Jie did not hesitate.

"Our Eighth Route Army treats prisoners preferentially, but it's a pity that these little devils are unwilling to be prisoners. As long as there is still a gun, all of them will be destroyed, and no one will be left! ”

The final battle broke out, and the fighters who surrounded the local Japanese army launched an attack.

The last means that the little devil relied on - the plane was still hovering in mid-air.

The Japanese troops on the ground who were besieged by the troops of the Eighth Route Army, and the little devils of the flying team did not expect to be able to rescue them.

They only wanted to let these encircled Imperial soldiers exert their last light and heat, take advantage of the strangulation of both sides, and continue to bomb and inflict more trauma on the troops of the Eighth Route Army.

By the time of the attack on the remnants of the Japanese army, the equipment and firepower of the soldiers of the first detachment had completely crushed the opposing side.

In the past, it was the little devil artillery who rushed after the infantry bombarded, and the infantry rushed after the artillery bombardment.

At the moment, it was the turn of the soldiers of the first detachment to raise their crushing guns, directly shell the recalcitrant Japanese troops, and then launch a charge.

The two guns of the artillery company of the 3rd Independent Regiment led by Shen Quan followed up with the troops to support the operation.

The commander of this artillery company was originally the platoon commander of the mortar company of the Independent Regiment, and the artillery cadre personally brought out by Wang Chengzhu.

Before the artillery set off, the commander of the artillery company repeatedly explained: "The little devil's plane is still flying overhead, and once our artillery fires, the rising smoke will be easily detected by the Japanese army, attracting the devil's bombardment." ”

"So before the artillery is fired, I must be watered with water in the area of the artillery position, especially the dusty ground."

"To prevent the smoke from artillery firing and arouse the detection of devil bombers."

"In addition, do a good job of concealment, each artillery piece cannot exceed two minutes at most, and a transfer of positions must be carried out."

The artillery fighters meticulously carried out the orders of the company commander.

This is a bitter pain for the devil flying team hovering in the sky.

It was already close to dusk, and the light had gradually dimmed, so I wanted to take advantage of the fire and smoke from the artillery on the Eighth Route side to lock on to the target.

As a result, only listening to the sound of cannons, the devil pilots sitting on the whistling planes had difficulty pinpointing where the target point was.

If the bombing was carried out blindly, the Devil Flying Team was also worried that the bombs would be dropped, and the Eighth Route Army scattered in the mountains and forests would not be blown up, and then their own people in the encirclement would be blown up.

That's a shame to throw home.

Command of the 3rd Independent Regiment.

Shen Quan, the commander of the Third Regiment, learned that the operation on the front line was quite smooth, and it was only a matter of time before the besieged Japanese puppet army was eliminated.

Shen Quan, who learned the news, had an idea and gave an order:

"It's rare to have such an opportunity to train soldiers, and some of our recruits and soldiers are sent over to see the world."

"In addition, our artillery company has just been formed, and the infantry and artillery coordination tactics are far less mature than the artillery battalion and infantry coordination of the detachment headquarters."

"Just take advantage of the current operation to carry out actual combat training of infantry and artillery coordination."

Coincidentally.

Wang Leihu, commander of the 2nd Independent Regiment, and Lei Dasheng, commander of the 1st Independent Regiment and 1st Battalion, also realized that the current local battlefield was an excellent opportunity for military training.

So they took the besieged Japanese puppet army as a fat cow to be slaughtered.

At the same time, in accordance with the order conveyed by Kong Jie at the headquarters, Wang Huaibao led part of the elite of the Fourth Independent Regiment to cover the organs of the Yujin District Party Committee and move closer to the Zhongtiao Mountain area in advance.

False false true true, true true false.

The Japanese wanted to stop the first detachment from going south to Nakajo Mountain.

Right now, with the defeat of the Japanese invaders.

Kong Jie's action to increase the number of troops in Zhongtiao Mountain can naturally continue with a swagger.

In order to ensure the safety of the organs of the Yujin District Party Committee, Kong Jie chose to let the peripheral combat troops cover all the way.

……

Until nightfall.

Divided into many local small battlefields, the Japanese puppet army in the encirclement was all wiped out or captured.

As for the devil's flying team, it ended with the sky.

In the end, it could only be retaliatory, and bombs were indiscriminately dropped on the battlefields around the base area of the Independent Regiment.

It doesn't even matter if it will blow up its own people, anyway, those Japanese soldiers who were surrounded will inevitably die in the eyes of the devil flying team.

Just treat them as jade crushes and martyrdom.

What's even more funny is that there is nearly a small group of Japanese troops, stubbornly blocking with the help of the easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack mountain.

As a result, it was bombed by the Devil's Flying Team.

The entire squad was directly destroyed.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army besieging on the periphery were also stunned, and took the opportunity to rush forward and take the position in one fell swoop, eliminating all the devils.

Before he died, the injured devil squad leader rushed to the plane in mid-air and scolded the eighteenth generation of the ancestors of the Japanese flying team.

"The reinforcement mission has been successfully completed, and the hidden artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army have all been blown up, so you can go back and report to Your Excellency the General!"

The captain of the devil's flying squadron thought to himself, and was even already imagining the honorable situation of his Excellency the General presenting himself with a medal after his return.

As for the three planes shot down by the Separate Regiment.

How can there be a war that is not sacrificed?

The flying team will not be an exception.

In another area, close to the Nakajo Mountains, a new round of fighting officially broke out.

The two elite Japanese brigades of the 47th Division of the Japanese Army, which had originally advanced northward from Yuncheng, retreated south after suffering more than 30% casualties.

After receiving the communication news from the detachment headquarters and Kong Jie's deployment order, how could the soldiers of the mountain company who were waiting for the rest of the mountain company in the Zhongtiao Mountain area let go of such a good opportunity?

Han Feng, Zhang Min, and Du Zhongcheng led the mountains to advance from the mountains in a roundabout way, and set up an ambush in advance on the only way for the Japanese army to retreat south.

In Han Feng's words, "Comrades, the opportunity to beat the water dogs has come!" ”

"Our detachment headquarters has won a big battle, and we can't make people laugh, right?"

"If you can't beat the main force of the devils, take advantage of the fire to rob, wait for work, and ambush some remnants of the devils, we still have this strength."

When the battle broke out suddenly, the Japanese troops who retreated south were caught off guard.

To say that the two Japanese brigades of the 47th Regiment are indeed tragic enough.

Originally, it was advancing northward, preparing to unite with the Japanese puppet army advancing from the southwest to exterminate the main force of the independent regiment.

As a result, at the bottom of the cliff on the south side of Taihang, it was fiercely bombarded by the hidden artillery unit of the Eighth Route Army.

Coupled with the counteroffensive of Commander Huang and his entourage.

These two Japanese brigades suffered nearly 30% casualties.

Although it will not be a rout, it is quite embarrassing to flee all the way.

Originally, many infantry guns belonging to the brigade, as well as heavy weapons, were too late to take away, so they could only be destroyed on the spot.

In addition, all the way south, long run, exhaustion.

When they stepped into the ambush circle set up by Han Feng and his entourage.

At this time, although there were still more than 1,500 Japanese troops left, they were already sleepy and tired, and they had lost all their heavy weapons.

The devils who fled all the way and whose will to fight was greatly weakened became very vigilant, and they did not even have the vanguard of the alert troops.

As soon as the battle began, the soldiers of the mountain company, who were waiting for work and preparing for the battle, exposed their powerful firepower, and the battle directly showed a one-sided trend.

Fortunately, the 47th Division of the Japanese Army stationed in Yuncheng is also the elite of the Japanese Army.

After suddenly encountering an ambush and paying a certain price for casualties, the little devils who quickly recovered from their senses retreated while fighting, relying on the terrain to confront the mountain company.

By this time it was getting late.

In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, Han Feng did not order to chase too closely, but with the help of 50 small artillery and 60 mortars, he pressed the little devil who did not have heavy weapons and artillery in his hands at this time.

"I have a little pity for the little devils now, how can they know that even if they get here, they still haven't escaped the deployment of our regiment leader!"

Han Feng smiled and spoke, he knew Kong Jie's plan.

At this point, the southbound troops should soon approach the back of the Japanese army in front of them.

At that time, the two sides will fight from both sides, and it will not be a problem to eliminate this devil.

Who led the team that went south to reinforce Zhongtiao Mountain, Han Feng didn't get the news, but he had a little more expectations.

"The surrounding vigilance spreads out in advance, beware of the devil's reinforcements."

Around eight o'clock.

The sound of the battle suddenly sounded from the back of the Japanese troops who were holding on to the danger.

Han Feng and the others smiled brighter and brighter, and the reinforcements from the south arrived.

The troops of the two sides tacitly attacked, and attacked back and forth.

The battle lasted until about nine o'clock, when the exhausted Japanese army was outnumbered and forced out of the encirclement with more than 200 people.

The rest of the Japanese army was wiped out in the valley.

After Han Feng led the mountain company to join the troops heading south, he learned that it was the team of the Fourth Independent Regiment.

After the two sides converged, Han Feng, Zhang Min, and Du Zhongcheng met Wang Huaibao, the head of the Fourth Independent Regiment of the first detachment.

"Third battalion commander!" Han Feng saluted and shouted, only then did he realize that he was used to shouting, and hurriedly changed his words: "Fourth Regiment Leader!" ”

Seeing that the mountain company team behind Han Feng and the three of them had begun to see the scale, Wang Huaibao nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile:

"It's just a name, you can call it anything, we see the old head now, don't we call the head of the group the same way!"

"By the way, Deputy Company Commander Han, this time, according to the deployment of the regiment commander, our Fourth Independent Regiment will reinforce the Zhongtiao Mountain operation and open up the anti-Japanese revolutionary base area."

"In addition, the regiment commander asked me to tell you that he has not forgotten what he promised you, after the fourth regiment arrived at Zhongtiao Mountain, the team of your mountain company will be merged into the fourth regiment, and you will be the commander of the fourth battalion."

"Yes, Captain!"

Han Feng straightened his chest and saluted Wang Huaibao again, and the change of title came naturally.

I was a little ashamed in my heart, and my mountain company had only grown to more than 600 people.

But the regiment commander said that only by developing a regiment can he be the battalion commander.

Wang Huaibao smiled, looked at Zhang Min and Du Zhongcheng again, and said: "The detachment headquarters has also arranged for the transfer of the two of you, and according to the meaning of our regiment commander, the two of you will also be merged into our fourth regiment." ”

"Captain Wang...... We're ......."

Zhang Min and Du Zhongcheng opened their mouths, a little embarrassed, one of them was from the new regiment and the other was from the new second regiment.

How did this become the team of an independent regiment in a blink of an eye?

Wang Huaibao smiled: "What, don't you want to?" ”

"Lao Zhang, Lao Du, I mentioned the two of you to the regiment commander when I came, and the regiment commander said that the two of you have been fighting in Zhongtiao Mountain with the mountains for a long time."

"We have won many battles and have rich experience in mountain warfare, so our regiment commander specially applied to our superiors to merge the two of you into our fourth regiment and serve as deputy battalion commanders."

"As for your original troops, don't worry, what is the relationship between our regiment commander and your regiment commander Li and Regiment Ding is not clear to you?"

"It's just a matter of one sentence, and there is no problem."

"This is also the original words of our head of the regiment, as for Captain Ding and Captain Li, he will say hello."

As soon as Wang Huaibao said this, Zhang Min and Du Zhongcheng didn't say a word, let alone be promoted and became the deputy battalion commander.

The two responded: "Regiment leader, we obey the orders of our superiors!" ”

"Okay, everyone, then let us work together, in the future, the heavy task of opening up the anti-Japanese revolutionary base in the area of Zhongtiao Mountain will all fall on us!"

Wang Huaibao encouraged two sentences.

In his heart, he pondered, and when he turned around, he had to talk to the old head about accepting Zhang Min and Du Zhongcheng's two mountain companies.

If he didn't turn around, Captain Li and Captain Ding came to scold his mother, he really couldn't stand it......
