The outer position of Dagu Town.

A commanding heights with a wide field of vision, the headquarters of the new regiment.

Li Yunlong was staring at the map, and the scouts had already sent news, as expected, the main force of the Japanese 10th Division concentrated its forces to attack Dagu Town and Lijia Town.

Right now, on the outskirts of Dagu Town, more than 10,000 devil puppet troops have been assembled.

The defense of Dagu Town was a total of more than 4,000 people from the first and second battalions of the new regiment.

The two battalions of the 6th and 7th Divisions had already jumped to the outer line in advance, looking for an opportunity to disrupt the Devil's logistical supply lines.

"Commander, the devils are attacking."

Zhang Dabiao's voice suddenly sounded.

Li Yunlong raised his head, his expression was grim, and he walked quickly to the artillery mirror, and looked forward through the vision of the artillery mirror.

In the field of vision of the telescope, about a company of puppet soldiers and a squad of devils rushed towards the position of the first battalion.

These puppet soldiers are cannon fodder, Li Yunlong didn't pay too much attention, and directly focused on the devils behind the puppet army.

These devils are very chicken thieves, their feet are light and they are very coquettish, and they bow forward and always ensure that there is a puppet army in front of them to block bullets, and they try to get as close as possible to a covered position when moving.

Judging from the tentative attack alone, this group of devils is very different from the devils of the second-line division that they encountered before.

The tactical moves are very skillful, and the marksmanship must be accurate and scary.

Zhang Dabiao put down the binoculars, and the corners of his mouth curled slightly: "Regiment commander, if you want me to say that this A division is nothing, it's still the same old way, as soon as you come up, you will try to attack, after the trial, the artillery will bombard, and the artillery will rush after the infantry will be bombarded, and when the firepower of our new regiment will come out, the little devil who will be ready to fight is called the ancestor, and it is okay to disrespect the ancestor?" ”

Li Yunlong sneered and asked, "Did the scouts find the devil artillery position?" ”

Zhang Dabiao replied: "According to the scout's report, the devil did not set up the artillery position in the artillery position of the 36th Division last time, and the specific location has not been discovered for the time being, the defense around the artillery position of the little devil is very tight, at least two cavalry squadrons of devils and an infantry squadron are protected around, and even the sword squadron cannot be approached." ”

The artillery positions set up by the devils last time were within the range of the new 150-mm guns.

And the firing elements were marked in advance, and if the devils set the artillery positions in the positions they had last time, the heavy artillery positions of the new regiment would only need a few rounds of shelling to blow up the artillery positions of the devils.

Li Yunlong didn't feel a pity, the devils of this first-tier division were smarter than the devils of the second-line division.

In front of the new regiment's forward inclined position, the vanguard of the puppet army had already touched a distance of 50 meters from the forward position.

"Call Lao Tzu!"

A company of the 1st battalion had long been prepared in the trenches, and with the order of the company commander.

The soldiers pulled the trigger, the guns rang out, and the new regiment of positions suddenly crackled like fried beans.

The puppet soldiers fell in an instant.

"All of them!"

"Da Da Da!"

Four 20-mm guns, M2 heavy machine guns, and 60-mm mortars fired simultaneously from the company's fire platoon.

In an instant, the puppet soldiers fell again, and more than a dozen puppet soldiers were torn apart by 20-mm shells and M2 heavy machine guns.

Although the puppet soldiers are afraid of death, their combat literacy is touching, and they react at the moment of the gunshot, but the action is still not as fast as the devil.

At the next moment of the gunshot, the devil soldiers crawled and rolled behind the bunker in different positions, and then pushed the bullet and loaded the gun to shoot.

It's just that most of the bunkers outside the forward inclined position are mined, and deliberately leaving these bunkers uncleaned is a trick to prevent devils.

With a booming explosion, the blood mist rose along with the smoke of the earth.

The soldiers of the new regiment did not have much interest in the puppet army, and after taking down the two rows of puppet troops, the puppet soldiers all crawled on the ground, and did not even dare to fire their guns under the dense rain of bullets.

As a result, the fire of the new regiment extended towards the devils in the rear, and the devils were very accurate in their marksmanship, and they had already killed 3 machine gunners and several riflemen of the new regiment.

But as the rain of bullets extended, the remnants of the devils didn't dare to show their heads at all, and the outcrops would be beaten into a sieve.

"Yaga, retreat!"

The leader of the devil squad shouted loudly behind the cover, turned around and collapsed, and the devil soldiers followed closely behind and ran wildly.

The puppet soldiers were lying on the ground motionless and did not dare to move, their distance was too close to the forward position of the Eighth Road, and if they turned around and fled, they would definitely be shot on the spot as a target, and pretending to be dead was the best choice.

……

Seeing that nearly 200 people were defeated and retreated, less than 20 people, Yamaguchi Tatsuharu's face was gloomy.

These more than 100 puppet soldiers are cannon fodder, and the old devil is not distressed at all, but most of the more than 60 Japanese soldiers in a squad suffered casualties, and the casualty rate was somewhat unexpected by him.

If this continues to be fought, I'm afraid that the 40th Infantry Wing will also suffer most of the casualties?

Taking a deep breath, Tatsuharu Yamaguchi stabilized his mind and walked into the brigade headquarters.

Yamaguchi Tatsuharu was about to speak, but the brigade commander, Major General Miura Saburo, said coldly: "I have already seen it, and after the artillery shelling of the locust army, your 40th Wing will attack again!" ”

"Brigade commander, how many troops will be put into force this time?" Tatsuharu Yamaguchi asked.

"One battalion of the Locust Army, one squadron of the Locust Army!"

Saburo Miura said coldly:

"Those locust allies are all death-fearing people, and this kind of behavior is simply detrimental to the honor of the soldiers."

"Order the artillery to carry out indiscriminate artillery bombardment within 100 meters of the forward position of the Eighth Road, and show those locust allies the fate of not honestly cooperating with the locust army."

As a battle-hardened old devil with vicious eyes, he can naturally see that in the forward position of the Eighth Route Army, there are still some puppet soldiers pretending to be dead.

"Hey!"

Tatsumura Yamaguchi sneered and turned to leave.

"How's the left going?"

Saburo Miura looked at the chief of staff on the side, Hiroo Ohno.

Chief of Staff Ono Binfu said: "Report to the brigade commander, the attack on the left flank did not go well, that small road can indeed lead to Dagu Town, but the Eighth Road is full of mines on that small road, and even built a thickened dark fort, and the attacking squadron has suffered more than 40 casualties and has withdrawn." ”

Saburo Miura's eyes narrowed, and his face was expressionless.

With the order of the brigade headquarters, the muzzle of one of the mountain guns burst into flames on the Japanese artillery position 3 kilometers behind the rear.

The shell rose into the air, crossed an arc in the air, and landed 50 meters away from the forward position of the new regiment, bursting out a dazzling red light and a large cloud of mud and mist, blowing up the two puppet troops into the air.

Not long after, the second shell arrived and fell on the positions of the new regiment.

It's just that the soldiers of the new regiment have already taken refuge in the tunnel, leaving only a few observation posts with walkie-talkies in a safer position.

"Boom, boom!"

Immediately afterward, a dense round of shells fell on the positions of the new regiment, bursting with clouds of fire and smoke.

The devil's 28 guns began firing at full speed.

……

The command of the new 1st regiment.

Chen Feng wore a steel helmet on his head and walked into the headquarters under the protection of Yan Shuangying.

Li Yunlong was taken aback on the spot when he saw Chen Feng coming to the forward command post: "Brother Chen, no, Advisor Chen, it's too dangerous here, you better go to the back and watch." ”

Chen Feng is the father of the new regiment and even the Eighth Route Army, and Li Yunlong is really afraid that something will happen to him.

Maybe one of the devil's shells misses and falls to the command headquarters, so it's cool.

There are so many surprises on the battlefield.

"I'll take a look." Chen Feng said, "I will definitely not interfere with your command, since you are all here, how can I be afraid?" ”

"Okay then, but don't go down." Li Yunlong had no choice but to nod.

Li Yunlong also has nothing to do with Chen Feng, so he can't let Zhang Dabiao take Chen Feng down.

If he did that, Chen Feng would definitely not cooperate with him, and he, Li Yunlong, would become a sinner of the Eighth Route Army.

Chen Feng took the telescope from Yan Shuangying's hand and looked through the field of vision of the telescope.

The artillery shells continued to fall, and the fierce explosion smoke rose from the positive slope position, and even one shell exploded 100 meters from the command post, causing both Li Yunlong and Zhang Dabiao to break out in a cold sweat.

Naturally, they are not afraid of devils' shells, but Boss Chen is here, they can have an accident, and Boss Chen must not have an accident.

Seeing that Li Yunlong and Zhang Dabiao were nervous because of their arrival, Chen Feng had no choice but to leave.

Before leaving, Chen Feng said to Li Yunlong that he would leave a few wounded devil soldiers, and he would kill devils to have a good time.

Li Yunlong naturally agreed: "Don't talk about a few devils wounded soldiers, even if you want the life of Iwamatsu Yoshio, my brother can screw off the old devil's head and give it to my brother as a night pot, as for the price, it is negotiable..."

】

Chen Feng ignored him, turned around and walked away quickly with Yan Shuangying, this dog's mind was full of business.

……

The devils shelled continuously for about five minutes, blew up the new regiment of civil fortifications, and by the way, ploughed the ground 100 meters of the forward position with shells.

Most of the puppet soldiers who pretended to be dead were blown up.

Subsequently, a battalion of the puppet army and a squadron of the Japanese army with nearly 600 troops rushed towards the position of the first battalion.

In this round of attack by the devils, two companies of the first battalion were responsible for the defense, and under the intensive firepower, the devils' puppet army fell in pieces.

The main reason is that the firepower of the new regiment is too dense, whether it is the puppet army who is cannon fodder, or the devil who is the main force in the rear, they are so pressed that they can't raise their heads under the dense firepower.

The devils of the A division are very powerful, the soldiers' marksmanship is accurate, the tactical coordination is perfect, and the two wings attack together.

But it was useless, even if the artillery blew up the puppet soldiers who were killed, under the intensive firepower, these puppet troops only lasted for a moment and became chaotic.

As some bunkers of the new regiment and one battalion joined the battle, the 82-mm mortars on the anti-slope positions began to operate, and the dense shells blew up the devil soldiers of the puppet army and the A division to the north.

Under the dense rain of bullets and artillery fire, the devil soldiers of these A divisions died no different from the devils of the puppet army and the second-line division.

In less than twenty minutes, the devil puppet army was quickly defeated and retreated, and the second attack was fruitless, the devil puppet army suffered more than 600 casualties, and the new regiment only suffered a few dozen casualties.

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander!"

In the Japanese headquarters, Chief of Staff Ono Hiroo said: "It is not possible to fight like this, the Eighth Route uses a combination of anticline and tunnels, and our artillery has almost no effect." ”

"Then how do you say to fight?"

Major General Miura Saburo's face was a little ugly, and if he continued to attack like this, he was just continuing to fill in with the lives of the Locust Army soldiers.

Ono Hiroo said: "In view of the tunnel and anticline tactics of the Eighth Road, Yamamoto Kazuki Daizuo proposed a countermeasure tactic, allowing the sappers to excavate in the way of earthwork to shorten the impact distance, as long as the locust soldiers rush into the position of the Eighth Route Army, with superb stabbing technology, they will soon be able to capture the position." ”

Miura Saburo waved his hand and said, "No, use gas bombs first and then attack again!" ”

"Hey!"

Ono had no choice but to pause.

The use of gas bombs in violation of international law in combat was nothing more than a common occurrence for the 10th Division.
