With the appearance of the main force of the fourth battalion, the Uchida brigade was completely besieged.

On the east and west flanks were the main forces of the 123rd Battalion of the 4th Regiment, to the north were the main forces of the 4th Battalion attacking from the back, and to the south were the nameless high slopes blocking the way of the Uchida Brigade.

The soldiers of the fourth company, led by the commander of the fourth company, were stationed in the central area of the high slope.

So far.

Originally, the old devil Uchida Shinno, who was confident in the plan of using the central flowering tactics to destroy the main force of the Fourth Independent Regiment in one fell swoop.

All the confidence has evolved into the anxiety and shame of the moment.

Miscalculated.

Uchida Shin also had to admit that he underestimated the strength of the Fourth Independent Regiment too much and underestimated Wang Huaibao's command ability.

As the Uchida Brigade was surrounded by the Eighth Route Army on all sides, the Uchida Brigade instantly fell into a crisis.

Even so, of course.

Even though he was besieged by the Eighth Route Army, although there was anxiety on Uchida Shinya's old face, he was not afraid, and although he was ashamed, he was not worried.

At least his Uchida brigade is still stationed on the fortifications for now.

The fortifications relied on were easy to defend and difficult to attack, the equipment in hand was still excellent, and the ammunition was still abundant.

The only pity is that it failed to eliminate the Eighth Route Army Company in front of him, take the nameless high slope, and occupy an absolute geographical advantage.

But with the fortifications in front of him, Nobuya Uchida was confident that holding out for two hours would not be a problem.

As long as the main force of the sweep encircles the Eighth Route Army from the outside, the tactics of flowering in the center will still work.

As for the combat area where the soldiers of the 4th Regiment, who were stuck in the middle of the fortifications re-garrisoned by the nameless high slope and the Uchida brigade at this time, and the soldiers of the 4th Regiment who broke through from both flanks handed over to the Japanese army.

A fierce look flashed in Uchida's eyes.

A very vicious thought suddenly came to his heart:

After the handover of the two sides and the outbreak of a white-knuckle battle, the Eighth Route Army obviously had the absolute upper hand by virtue of its superiority in strength.

The imperial warriors of his Uchida brigade who were entangled by the Eighth Route Army were only a matter of time before they were wiped out by the Eighth Route Army

Rather than so......

Why don't you bury all these Eighth Route Army by yourself?

The so-called success of one will make ten thousand bones withered, and Uchida Shinya may not understand this truth, but he understands the bloodiness and cruelty in it.

"Signal troops, pass on my order, immediately notify the artillery unit, and prepare to carry out indiscriminate fire coverage of the front engagement area!"

Uchida Nobuya's order was given, and the communications soldier was directly stunned in place, his eyes widening.

The devil staff officer on the side was even more stunned and said: "Your Excellency Captain, we still have a large number of surviving soldiers, who are also fighting in the front area, if the firepower is covered, wouldn't it be ......?"

"I know what you're worried about, but at the moment, the situation is urgent, and the Eighth Route uses infantry artillery coordination tactics to quickly entangle with our army, in order to make our army's artillery fire lose its advantage.

Are we going to let these eight roads lead us by the nose?

As for the Imperial soldiers who died together, they were true warriors who died heroically on the battlefield.

The Emperor will always remember them! ”

Nobuya Uchida, who has already decided to be ruthless, how can he easily change his mind?

He explained without hesitation.

"Hey!"

Sensing Uchida Shinya's determination, the devil staff didn't dare to say anything else.

The communications corps immediately conveyed Uchida's order.

After Uchida Nobuya's order was delivered, the devil's artillery unit covered the area where the Eighth Route Army was engaged with the Japanese soldiers.

"Fire!"

Boom Boom –

The sudden explosion sounded, and the shells fell on the heads of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who were in the handover, and also fell on the heads of those bewildered devil soldiers.

Quickly enter the white-hot combat zone.

Both the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army were stunned.

The little devil's indiscriminate firepower coverage is really ruthless, and he doesn't even let go of his own people.

Several battalion commanders who commanded and watched the battle in the rear couldn't help but scold: "This old devil Uchida raised by a son of a dog is crazy, and even his own people are blown up?" ”

"Conceal, conceal——, dodge enemy artillery fire first!"

The company commanders and platoon commanders who took the lead in the rush hurriedly shouted at their own team.

In round after round of shelling, the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army were both engaged in the battle, and there were many casualties.

For this scene, the eyelids of the devil staff officer next to Uchida Shinya jumped.

His Excellency is also crazy and cruel enough, and he is not at all afraid of being court-martial after the war.

Looking at the tragic scene under the bombardment, the corners of Uchida Shinya's mouth were a sneer of successful revenge.

He seemed to tell Wang Huaibao with practical actions.

It's not just that your Eighth Route Army troops are crazy enough to break through our army's fortifications in one fell swoop with close-range infantry and artillery coordination.

I'm not easy to mess with, I'm ruthless and don't even let my own people go......

"Attack—"

Toot Toot –

If you want to relieve the crisis of the soldiers of the 4th Regiment in the shelled area, the best way is naturally to knock out the artillery units in the rear of the Uchida brigade.

Seeing that the Uchida brigade launched an artillery bombardment, Han Feng immediately gave the order for a general attack.

An onslaught was launched from the back of the Uchida brigade.

The main forces of the 123rd Battalion, which had been detouring from the flanks, also turned around towards the area where the headquarters of the Uchida Brigade was located in the rear.

The forces of all sides attempted to interrupt the attack of the artillery units of the Uchida brigade with a fierce attack.

…… At this time, Wang Huaibao's hole cards that had been hidden finally surfaced

It was the mortar fire that burst out of the 4th Separate Regiment.

It turned out that since Kong Jie sent nearly one regiment of American-style equipment to the Fourth Regiment, the soldiers of the Fourth Regiment were replenished with equipment and ammunition again, and naturally showed strong combat effectiveness again, easily breaking the blockade of the Japanese army, and killing many places and villages of the devils in one fell swoop.

But Wang Huaibao also has a hole card hidden.

That was the newly formed mortar battery of the 4th regiment.

This mortar company uses all American M2 60mm mortars, and the number has been replenished in a new round.

According to Kong Jie's equipment plan and John's plan at that time, in Kong Jie's words:

"This 60mm mortar is used as a squad platoon firepower, at least it must be equipped to the platoon, your US military has a lot of money, don't you just want to see the power that this kind of grassroots artillery can show in actual combat, then we might as well be directly assigned to the squad!"

John was anxious to see the actual combat effect of this American weapon group, and after a little hesitation, he agreed.

Of course, in the end, it was not so exaggerated.

If only a squad were equipped with a 60-mm mortar.

The four separate regiments were subordinate to four battalions, calculated according to three companies and nine platoons and twenty-seven squads in each battalion.

Wouldn't the 4th Separate Regiment have 108 60-mm mortars?

In terms of firepower, it simply crushed the Uchida Brigade in an all-round way.

So the fourth regiment ended up with almost 1 or 2 60-mm mortars in one platoon.

Of course, the squad will also be equipped with a 50 small cannon as a support gun for the combat squad.

From this point of view, the Fourth Regiment can be said to be the main combat regiment of the Eighth Route Army armed to the teeth.

Wang Huaibao also concentrated the use of 20 or 30 mortars and set up a mortar company. As a support artillery on the battlefield.

Almost in groups of four, a mortar group is formed

There are many observers, gunners, loaders, and commanders.

In order to break the Japanese army's plan to encroach on the cantonment in the Zhongtiao Mountain area, Wang Huaibao specially ordered that each company could only use 1/3 of the firepower of the 60 mortars sent by Kong Jie.

Therefore, in the intelligence department and reconnaissance department of the Japanese army, the intensity of artillery fire displayed by the 4th Independent Regiment was only 1/3.

The remaining two-thirds of the current situation have completely exploded.

A considerable number of M2 60 mortars, as well as an abundance of shells.

"Fire—"

In the previous encounter, the forward artillery scouts had already passed the coordinate data of the Japanese artillery positions to the mortar batteries in the rear.

After the commander of the artillery company gave the order to adjust the firing of Zhu Yuan, he gave an order, and nearly 30 60-mm mortars, which had been constructed long ago, fired at the artillery position of the Uchida brigade in a group.

The American M2 60mm mortar has superior performance, long range, great power and high accuracy, and is equipped with John's latest M4 sight.

Even at a distance of seven or eight hundred meters, it is still possible to accurately cover the target area.

Under the surging artillery bombardment, the artillery positions of the devils, which were shelling the combat area where the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army were handing over in the rear, immediately suffered a heavy blow.

And it's the kind of unilateral beating, and you can't fight back if you want to.

Wang Huaibao deliberately ordered the mortar company to build a position at a distance of about 700 meters, which was just outside the effective range of the Type 89 grenadiers that the Japanese army had a large number of.

The Japanese army was embarrassed.

Sixty-zero mortars can hit their artillery, but their artillery can't hit six-zero mortars.

The position of the only three Type 92 infantry guns that could counterattack was the first to be destroyed by the opponent's artillery.

In the fierce artillery bombardment, the old devil Nobuya Uchida, who was almost hit by a shell, finally changed his face.

In his astonishment, he scolded the enemy's commander, that is, Wang Huaibao, for being despicable.

The two sides have clashed to such an extent that you are hiding such heavy mortar fire.

The feelings were previously because of the superiority of the Uchida Brigade in the artillery fire, and the Eighth Route Army was defeated and retreated, which was all an illusion.

The real killer trick is hidden in front of you!

As Wang Huaibao's mortar battery launched a fierce attack, the Japanese artillery positions were quickly suppressed by one-sided fire and could not raise their heads.

The combat area of the rear handover of short troops.

The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army of the Fourth Regiment took advantage of the suppression of the devil's artillery fire, quickly jumped up, launched a final onslaught, and wiped out the remnants of the Japanese army.

The main force of the 123rd Battalion included the 4th Company that led the charge down from the nameless high slope, and the 4th Battalion led by Han Feng, who broke through from the north.

The firepower of the American equipment in the hands of the soldiers completely exploded, and there was no longer the slightest hand.

From all sides, the encircled Uchida Brigade launched a fierce attack.

The artillery fire of the platoon artillery company was non-stop, covering the charge of the infantry on all sides.

In the words of the commander of the artillery company, let's fight a surplus battle this time, and the shells will be used for me, anyway, the old regiment commander said, we have the Yankees behind us to pay!

So, what kind of team is the Uchida Brigade of the Japanese Kwantung Army, which is besieged by regiments at this moment?

It was an iron division with the absolute faith of the Eighth Route Army and the will to fight without fear of death.

At the same time, it had the most advanced American-style equipment of this period, and the sophistication of the weapons completely crushed the Japanese army.

In terms of troops, they also had an advantage.

The main force of the 4th Battalion, which attacked from the back of the Japanese army, completely pocketed the Uchida brigade.

Uchida Shinya has never been able to understand that his back is obviously the sweeping army is constantly advancing.

This damned Eighth Route Army that blocked its retreat from the rear.

Where did it come from?

Seeing that the general trend had gone, he finally changed from his original self-confidence to the anxious Uchida Shin, who no longer dared to hesitate.

Immediately let the Ministry of Communications send an order to the General Headquarters to inform him that the situation of the Uchida Brigade was critical.

Request a quick tactical guide!

But one news after another came, directly sinking Uchida Shinya's heart stone to the bottom of the sea.

"The Second Sweeping Brigade was blocked by the troops of the Eighth Route Army in the area of Xiaohuanggou!"

"The third sweeping force was blocked along the eighth road, and it was temporarily unable to reach the nameless slope!"

"Matsuno's squadron, which rushed to the aid of the nameless high slope, fell into a minefield set by the Eighth Road in the middle of the way, and suffered heavy casualties ......"

……

Originally.

Wang Huaibao's deployment this time, on the one hand, is to surround the Uchida Brigade on all sides.

On the other hand, there are local troops and militia units of all sides, including part of the field troops of the four regiments.

Minefields were laid along the way of the Japanese sweeping troops to block the advance of the Japanese army, so as to buy time for the defeat of the Uchida brigade in one fell swoop.

For this.

The troops responsible for blocking and sending reinforcements on all sides were also released.

One by one, the fighters, including the comrades of the local troops and the militia units, continued to block and fight bloody battles along the way.

Even if you are desperate, you have to buy time for the main force in the rear to destroy the Uchida brigade.

Even if it comes at a terrible price.

…… There is a militia squad.

In order to garrison the last position, more than 30 militia comrades, although they had not been touching their guns for too long, finally all died on the position.

From the beginning to the end, not a single comrade took even half a step back.

The militia squad, whose average age was less than 30 years old, died heroically in an unknown ravine.

It is completely inconspicuous and inconspicuous enough to shine in the annals of history, but it also constitutes an indispensable part of the tragic and majestic history of the Chinese nation's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.

Under the bravery and madness of the warriors.

In the end, at the most desperate moment of Nobuya Uchida, none of the sweeping forces from all sides were able to reinforce it.

The two sides fought fiercely, and less than an hour had passed.

The two-hour blocking time, which I thought was extremely easy, had not yet passed halfway.

It's all over......

Nobuya Uchida also tilted his head, closed his eyes and sighed.

In the midst of desolation and lamentation, he suddenly wanted to meet the commander of the Eighth Route Army on the other side, but he wanted to see what kind of character this commander of the Eighth Route Army was.

"It's like a wolf with baring teeth...... Once bitten, it never lets go. ”

This is the feeling that is emerging in the bottom of Nobuya Uchida's heart at this moment.

He was obviously afraid, and would rather choose a humiliating retreat, but the other party didn't give him a chance at all.

…… The final decisive battle broke out suddenly when the mentality of both sides was declining.

The roar of artillery fire.

The sound of bullets breaking through the air.

Shouts of killing, wailing, roaring, trumpets......

It is completely intertwined, and it becomes the most shocking sound in this world without any rhythm.

The two sides fought fiercely for nearly thirty minutes.

In the large-scale anti-sweeping operation set off at Mt. Nakajo, the battle designed by the 4th Independent Regiment to annihilate the Uchida Brigade of the Japanese Kwantung Army came to an end.

On the hill below the nameless slope, the smoke of gunpowder still fills the air.

The corpses of the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army, which fell to the ground, bleed and drifted, silently telling the tragedy and tragedy of the war.

While directing the soldiers to quickly clean up the battlefield, several battalion commanders of the 4th Regiment met.

Looking at the old devil Uchida Seiya who was lying at his feet and still staring at his eyes, holding the command knife stiffly in his right hand, and was completely beaten into a hornet's nest by the machine gun.

The second battalion commander couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "This old devil raised by a son of a bitch, although he wants to scold him and kick him fiercely, but as an opponent, we have to admit that these Kwantung Army are really tough opponents." ”

"Yes! Fighting until the end, the entire Uchida Brigade did not give up resistance until all of them were killed.

In such an ambush battle with absolute superiority, we still suffered a lot of casualties, and it was really the first time for our independent regiment! ”

The commander of the first battalion said in a deep voice.

Han Feng smiled suddenly, "But we still won, a big victory, aren't we?"

From this point of view, even the Kwantung Army, which is the most powerful of the devils, is nothing more than that.

Our Eighth Route Army troops will be strong when they are strong.

The struggle for the motherland and the people is forever invincible. ”

"Well said!"

There was applause from not far away, and it turned out to be the head of the regiment, Wang Huaibao, who arrived.

"Captain!"

"Captain!"

Several battalion commanders shouted one after another.

Looking at the tragic battlefield, a large number of corpses of both the enemy and the enemy were poured.

Wang Huaibao, who gave full play to the spirit of revolutionary optimism, said loudly: "The fourth battalion commander said well, if the enemy is strong, then we will be stronger than them.

What if the Kwantung Army was the elite of the Japanese army?

Our four regiments are fighting the elite of his mother.

In this battle, we have played a style, and we have played the backbone of all the soldiers of our four regiments, I want to take a look, who else dares to underestimate my independent four regiments in Zhongtiao Mountain in the future? ”

Oh, yes......

Elite such as the Uchida Brigade of the Japanese Kwantung Army.

In the case of the sweep of the Japanese army towards Zhongtiao Mountain, it was still wiped out by the Fourth Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army in one fell swoop.

If such news is transmitted, it will inevitably cause turmoil in the entire Zhongtiao Mountain, the entire Jinnan, and even the entire North China......

With great pride and glory.

All the officers and men of the Fourth Regiment quickly and orderly cleaned up the battlefield......
