If it is said that the little devil took the lead in dispatching a mechanized combat squadron to launch a surprise attack on the villages in the base area of the Eighth Route Army, it was an appetizer for the Japanese army.

Then in a series of big explosions in front of him, the devil drove in first, and the three transport cars that didn't have time to brake.

In a few breaths, the tragic scene of being torn to shreds due to complete entry into a densely planted minefield.

It can also be used as an appetizer for the Eighth Route Army to ambush the Japanese army.

This is a masterpiece left here by the engineer company specially arranged by Commander Wang.

This minefield is very different from the minefields usually laid by the Eighth Route Army.

This is a high-density minefield, the whole area may be less than 50 meters, but the density of the mines planted in it is exaggerated, not to mention the little devils, even the sappers and soldiers who laid the mines at that time were a little numb.

I almost used all the mines that the 769 Regiment had accumulated for so many years.

Three or four mines had to be planted almost every two steps, and there was a special triangular distribution, almost a triangular anti-tank minefield.

The entire mountain road, which is less than 200 meters wide and more than 200 meters wide, can be imagined how many mines have been planted in it.

With such a high density of minefields, let alone a few military transport vehicles of devils, even if the armored vehicles and tanks of devils dare to enter this minefield, they can still blow him to pieces.

After paying for three military cars, all the soldiers with the one or twenty people in the carriages were killed.

The follow-up little devil drivers finally had time to press the brakes hard, and then in the sudden stop, mixed with panic, the entire convoy stopped.

"Hit!"

The sound of shouting spread throughout the mountains and forests.

The commander of the first combat company of the 769th Regiment under the command of Commander Wang gave the order without hesitation.

A sudden attack, and the targets they were pursuing, the villagers, seemed to be not far away.

Looking at the three military vehicles that took the lead in and were even torn to pieces in a series of fierce explosions, the rest of the little devils were all stunned.

The voice of the devil captain, who belonged to the supreme military commander of the entire mechanized combat squadron, could no longer have appeared.

In the process of advancing all the way, this devil captain was overconfident that there were no flaws in the pursuit all the way, and he even sat in the co-pilot of the military car that drove in first for the convenience of command.

Therefore, after entering the dense minefield laid by the Eighth Route Army without the car being guarded, the devil captain went to meet the emperor with the car.

At this time, there was still a Japanese lieutenant, who was the deputy of the devil squadron leader, and he shouted angrily in a panic: "Return fire, immediately cover the vehicle and try to transfer!" ”

Pity.

It seems that it is already too late.

After the battle broke out suddenly, worthy of being the first combat company of the 769th regiment, under the leadership of the commander of the first company, the soldiers of the first company launched a rather fierce attack.

This is a targeted ambush method, and it is even more targeted.

As a tiger general under Commander Wang, the commander of a company commanded this ambush battle, which was also quite exquisite.

First of all, the location chosen is just at the end of the open field, and the mountain road sandwiched by this mountain forest is the narrowest area of the entire mountain road.

In addition, not far away, you can ask some ordinary people as bait.

Seeing that the open area where the target of the pursuit was located was not far away, the devil's original vigilance must have decreased.

It was at this time that the ambush battle suddenly began.

This last mountain path was chosen cleverly.

The whole mountain road is only two or three meters wide, and there are steep slopes on both sides, making it difficult to get on the bus.

And the devil's military transport vehicles themselves are more than two meters wide, and it is impossible to complete the U-turn on this narrow mountain road.

The only option for the Japanese was to drive the cars out of the narrow mountain road in front of them, enter the open area not far away, and then make a U-turn and return along the mountain road.

Unfortunately, this is unlikely.

The minefields densely planted by the Eighth Route Army in front have completely torn the three cars to pieces.

The only option for the Japanese was to retreat.

How can the speed of reversing compare to the speed of forwarding?

What's more, there are fierce firepower strikes by the troops of the Eighth Route Army on both sides of the mountains and forests.

As a close neighbor of the 386 Brigade, it has recently successfully completed dual cooperation with Kong Jie's team in economic and military production.

Captain Kong, who has always had the label of an honest man and a kind person, is not stingy at all.

As soon as the cooperation between the detachment and the 769 Regiment in all aspects was reached, Kong Jie directly sent a batch of munitions and equipment.

Among them were a considerable number of mortars, and even several American 75-mm howitzers.

Including some anti-tank bazookas.

Do you think the captain of the Kong detachment will suffer a loss?

On the contrary, this is called casting a long line to catch a big fish.

This batch of arms and equipment shows Kong Jie's generosity and sincerity in cooperating with the 769th Regiment.

The most important thing is that after this batch of arms and equipment was delivered, Regiment Commander Wang said a sentence:

"In the future, the sky will fall, and I will follow his old Kong!"

In Kong Jie's words: "Lao Wang's words are what our batch of equipment is really exchanged, a batch of equipment is exchanged for a tiger general, and the entire 769 regiment is firmly tied to our ship, this is a sure deal!" ”

Willing to give.

Where did you get it?

At this moment, the ambush battle has begun, bullets are raining, artillery is firing in unison, and you can feel the power of all kinds of mortars newly equipped in your hands.

The commander of the first company who led the command couldn't help but speak:

"Obediently, the comrades of this detachment, the equipment is generous!

With these new equipment, the combat effectiveness of our company can at least be doubled! ”

The deputy company commander on the side suddenly said: "Company commander! That's it, I heard that it is still the most basic equipment level in the troops led by Commander Kong!

If this is a team of several main combat regiments, I don't know what level of equipment has reached! ”

"Damn, people are more popular than people, I can't care about so much, let's beat this little devil first, and seize these devils' cars!

Comrades, aim and hit as hard as you can, don't blow up our car! ”

It's just a grenade, thrown with the help of the condescending terrain on both sides.

The explosion of the grenade will not easily blow up the devil's car.

Immediately afterwards, 50 and 60 mortars were used to assist the bombardment to cover the infantry charge.

The commander of the first company gave an order, and the flank detachments that had already been ambushed on both sides were like Menghu descending the mountain, attacking the little devils who had no time to turn around and were guarding on both sides of the car.

At this time, the little devil was directly torn to pieces by the mines because the three cars in the lead were directly torn apart, and the devil broke fifty or sixty soldiers in one breath.

Nearly 1/3 of the troops turned into ashes in an instant.

The battle has reached this point, and there is no suspense at all!

Seeing that the general trend had gone and that it was too late to evacuate, the devil lieutenant who led the team to desperately resist shouted holy war to boost the morale of the soldiers, and then asked the signal corps to hurriedly use the shortwave radio to convey a call for help to the main combat force of the Japanese army one kilometer away.

The battle here was not the only one, the Japanese army was the first to advance from three directions, and it was three mechanized combat squadrons that advanced first.

The time is not particularly uniform, almost in order, and the three mechanized combat squadrons of the devils were ambushed by the Eighth Route Army along the way.

Of course, not all three mechanized combat squadrons will suffer the fate of annihilation.

The mechanized combat squadron of the devils, which was ambushed by the commander of a company, basically could not escape annihilation because it fell directly into a minefield trap and suddenly suffered a fierce fire attack.

The other two mechanized combat units of the devils fared slightly better.

The terrain in which they are located is not like the ambush area of a company, with narrow mountain roads and steep forests on both sides, which greatly limits the flexibility of mechanized combat vehicles.

After being suddenly ambushed, the little devils, who were the elite mechanized combat units of the Japanese army, quickly fought back.

The other two mechanized combat units broke through most of the combat units in time.

So far.

The Japanese finally realized that in the face of their so-called surprise attack, the Eighth Route Army did not seem to be caught off guard as they thought.

The villages that were successfully destroyed along the way still advanced all the way, more like a lone army lured by the Eighth Route Army step by step.

The news quickly reached the command in the rear of the Japanese army.

This is the temporary headquarters of the 3rd Mixed Brigade of the First Army of the Japanese Army stationed in Shanxi, which was responsible for launching a surprise attack and sweep against the base area of the 385th Brigade.

Ishikawa, the commander of the Devil Brigade, graduated from the Imperial Army University, after the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, this little devil made many achievements, and also commanded many battles on the frontal battlefield, defeating and eliminating many combat units of the National Army.

As one of the few fierce generals under the command of Yoshio Shinozuka, the commander of the First Army stationed in Shanxi.

The leader of this invader has too much innocent blood on his hands, and it has long been impossible to write about it.

In the face of news from the front.

Ishikawa, an old devil with a cold and resolute face, slowly opened his mouth and analyzed:

"In this way, this surprise attack on the Eight Roads is not completely unprepared, and it seems that this surprise attack may not be as smooth as imagined!"

The chief of staff of the devil on the side said: "The Eighth Road is good at surprise attacks, good at conspiracies and tricks, if it is a frontal battle, it is not vulnerable at all.

At present, although the three mechanized combat squadrons of our army have been forced to retreat, the attention of the Eighth Route Army has basically been successfully attracted to the front-line combat area.

Your Excellency Brigade Commander, I suggest that the main forces of our army quickly advance quickly, outflank in a roundabout way, and break through from the flanks to the core area of the 385th Brigade base area! ”

Ishikawa shook his head, his brows a little solemn: "Nantian-kun, don't underestimate the Eighth Route Army." Don't forget, the 4th Mixed Brigade was defeated at the hands of the Eighth Route Army. ”

Once upon a time, the Fourth Mixed Brigade of the First Army stationed in Shanxi was also one of the field elites of the First Army.

Later, he was defeated many times at the hands of Kong Jie.

After the troops were replenished many times, the new recruits were mixed, and the good and the bad were uneven, and they had long ceased to be elite.

Therefore, this time, the Japanese army secretly transferred the third, ninth, and sixteenth mixed brigades to the Changzhi area, but they did not mix into the fourth brigade.

Why?

It is precisely because the Fourth Brigade has been defeated by Kong Jie many times that it has long lost much combat effectiveness.

It was also left behind in the rear to maintain law and order stability in the local area.

How sad!

Nantian was silent for a moment, what Ishikawa said was an indisputable fact, but he still tried to justify: "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the Fourth Brigade was defeated by the first detachment of the Eighth Route Army in the northwest of Jin, and was defeated in the hands of Kong Jie, not in the hands of the 385th Brigade!" ”

"So, Nantian-kun, do you mean that I, the elite of the Japanese Empire, can I defeat the Eighth Route Army in front of me now, and I still have to consider which unit the Eighth Route Army is and what its name is?"

"This, Your Excellency Brigade Commander, I ......" Nan Tian was directly choked.

Yes, does the Japanese Empire need to have so many concerns if it wants to eliminate the Eighth Route Army?

Maybe I was really scared by the Eighth Route Army!

Ishikawa turned the topic to the right track: "Even if we are facing the troops of the Eighth Route Army of the 385th Brigade in front of us, this 385th Brigade is not far from the 386th Brigade.

The combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army here may not be as good as that team, and I am afraid it is not far behind, so we must be in good spirits.

Failure must not be caused by arrogance and carelessness! ”

"Hey!"

"As for the situation in front of you......" Ishikawa said after contemplation, "inform the major team headquarters, strengthen various vigilance, and continue to move forward steadily."

At the same time, send vanguard test troops to lure out the hidden Eighth Route Army troops to fight as much as possible.

If you encounter a large-scale ambush by the Eighth Route Army on the way, you should immediately make a strategic transfer and lure the Eighth Route to an area where the terrain is favorable to our army, and then start a battle with it. ”

Ishikawa thought very clearly: "No matter what losses the mechanized combat squadron as the vanguard has, this time His Excellency the commander personally arranged and even united the troops stationed in Mongolia to coordinate the operation, how can it be a failure because of a slight setback?"

Source change app】

What our department has to do is to completely drag down the main combat force of the Eighth Route Army in the base area of the 385th Brigade and try to attract the attention of the Eighth Route Army. ”

Meantime.

The 3rd Mixed Brigade of the Japanese Army advanced only from the center line of the 385th Brigade base area.

According to the Japanese army's battle plan, the 9th Mixed Brigade advanced from the left and the 16th Mixed Brigade advanced from the right, divided into three routes, and at the same time launched a comprehensive encirclement sweep to the base area of the 385th Brigade.

In this sweep, the scale of the devils is not small, and the momentum is huge.

A sweep around the base area of the 385 Brigade officially kicked off.

Brigade Commander Chen, who was sitting at the headquarters of the 385 Brigade, immediately dispatched his troops and arranged the anti-sweeping operations of the front-line troops in a calm and measured manner.

When the command analyzed the battle situation, Brigade Commander Chen couldn't help but scold:

"His grandmother's, these little devils, acting is really similar, if we hadn't found out the news in advance, the devils probably wanted to use the sweep of our base area to sneak attack the Huangyadong Arsenal, Lao Tzu almost believed that the little devils were running for our 385 Brigade!"

“…… Immediately inform me of the front-line combat regiments, and according to the original plan, continue to show the enemy weakness, launch a camouflage blockade, and find a way to lure the little devil into our ambush circle. ”

"Isn't this devil trying to trap our 385 Brigade in the base area?

We're not going to go out yet, just in our base, let this little devil taste our awesomeness.

You can't be a devil who was beaten by the 386 Brigade and came to us to find a field, right?

Is it true that our 385 Brigade is a soft persimmon? ”……
