Chapter 889: Three Blossoms!

The fighters of the enemy Ministry of Engineering shouted over and over again with their trumpets.

Zhang Dabiao planned to have the fighters of the enemy engineering department shout for half an hour.

Tank artillery and heavy artillery shelled for another half hour, and then let the tanks and infantry launch a general attack.

At present, let all the tanks press up, but Zhang Dabiao wants to show off his muscles and scare the puppet army.

Although with the strength and firepower under Zhang Dabiao now.

It only takes a wave of infantry and tanks to capture this devil's puppet army position.

But the troops are bound to cause some casualties among the troops.

If you can take this position without bloodshed, then you can sacrifice fewer soldiers.

Even one less soldier is worth it.

So.

In the interval between the shelling of heavy artillery fire, Zhang Dabiao ordered the fighters of the enemy's engineering department to shout to the puppet army.

It is unlikely that the devils will surrender.

Zhang Dabiao is also not happy to see the devils surrender, and the devils deserve to die.

……

On the Japanese position on Crouching Tiger Mountain.

At the beginning, the leader of the devil squadron shook the Type 4 anti-tank piercing mine in his hand, as if facing a great enemy.

The heavy tanks of the Eighth Route Army have long been thunderous.

On the front line, it was difficult for even a squadron of Japanese soldiers to destroy a heavy tank of the Eighth Route Army.

But.

The heavy tanks of the Eighth Route Army, after approaching the forward position of Wohu Mountain, did not open fire.

Listening to the shouts of the Eighth Route Army, the devil squadron leader suddenly showed some doubts on his face, he could not understand Chinese.

"What is the Eighth Route Army doing?"

The leader of the devil squadron looked at the translator on the side and asked sharply.

The interpreter was a Chinese, and finally replied truthfully: "The Eighth Route Army is asking the Locust Alliance Army to kill the Locust Army in exchange for a chance to live." ”

"Nani?"

The leader of the devil squadron looked shocked and looked at the puppet soldiers around him.

The eyes of those puppet soldiers were wandering, staring at the tanks of the Eighth Route Army, their faces were cloudy, and they seemed to be hesitating to attack the Japanese soldiers.

"Taijun, please rest assured, my soldiers will never turn back."

Zhong Yunhe, the commander of the 2nd Brigade of the 1st Independent Division of the Locust Alliance Army on the side, patted his chest and assured.

Then, Zhong Yunhe shouted loudly: "Brothers, don't believe the nonsense of the Eighth Road, they won't let us go, we will fight to the death with the Eighth Road to the end, kill one is enough, and kill two without loss!" ”

Other puppet soldiers may be able to surrender, but he, Zhong Yunhe, cannot.

To be able to achieve the position of the brigade commander of the puppet army, you must vote for the Japanese, and you have killed a lot of eight roads, and surrender is also a dead end, and you can only go one way to the black with the Japanese.

So even if he surrenders, what awaits Zhong Yunhe can only be the people's judgment.

A small number of hardcore traitors echoed loudly when they heard this, but most of the puppet soldiers, their faces and eyes were still cloudy, and they hesitated.

"Yaga!"

The leader of the devil squadron saw that not far away, a puppet soldier glanced at him, immediately took out the Wang Ba box, and shot at the puppet soldier.

The puppet soldier suddenly had a blood flower on his chest and fell into the trench.

The nearby puppet army was suddenly silent and did not dare to move.

But the puppet army in the distance thought that someone had taken the lead, and someone shouted loudly: "Brothers, fight with the devil!" ”

Then.

"Da Da Da ......"

Suddenly there was a burst of gunfire on the Crouching Tiger Mountain position, and the devils and the puppet army began to fight each other.

Although the devils are strong in combat and relatively fierce, the number of devils is small and scattered in various positions.

And the number of puppet troops is large, and at this time, they dare to fight with devils in order to survive.

The battle lasted only more than ten minutes, and the puppet army was killed and wounded more than 100 people, and more than 200 people from a devil squadron were completely annihilated.

The leader of the devil squadron was shot to death, and Zhong Yunhe was tied up by the puppet soldiers.

As the gunfire stopped, a white flag slowly rose from the front position of the devil, and at the same time, a somewhat trembling voice came out:

"Eight, eight masters!"

"Don't fire, we surrender!"

"The devils on the battlefield have all been killed by us..."

Forthwith.

Infantry and tanks entered the Crouching Tiger Mountain position and began to accept the surrender of the puppet army.

……

"Regiment commander, political commissar, two good news!"

Cai Dong Village, the front command of the new regiment.

Wang Dehou hung up the walkie-talkie of the first battalion, and then took the telegram from the telegraph operator, and said to Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang with a smile after reading the telegram.

"Which two pieces of good news?"

Li Yunlong's eyes lit up.

At present, Li Yunlong is the commander-in-chief of the front, although he has come to the front line, he is in charge of the front-line command, and the overall plan is coordinated by Li Yunlong, and the order is issued by him, but the command of the front line is carried out by other officers.

"First good news."

Wang Dehou looked at the telegram in his hand:

"Just now the commander of the horse battalion sent a telegram, and the 1st Brigade of the Devil Cavalry was really fooled, and was completely wiped out by our air support and hundreds of heavy machine guns."

As soon as the words fell, the eyes of Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, Ding Wei and others lit up leisurely.

The 1st Cavalry Brigade arrived in Taiyuan for almost a year.

Li Yunlong tried many times to eat the 1st Cavalry Brigade and expand the cavalry units of the Eighth Route Army, but he was unsuccessful.

The reason was that the commander of the 1st Cavalry Brigade, Tadamichi Kuribayashi, was very cunning.

Once, Li Yunlong put out hundreds of machine guns and 20-mm machine guns in the Xinzhou Basin to kill the 1st Cavalry Brigade, but Kuribayashi Tadamichi was not fooled.

The corners of Ding Wei's mouth turned up slightly: "It seems that the new brigade commander of the 1st Cavalry Brigade, Kaneto Yasuda, is not as old and spicy as Kuribayashi Zhongdao." ”

On the side of the Eighth Route Army, it is natural that the information has been received a long time ago, and the commander of the 1st Cavalry Brigade has already been replaced.

Zhao Gang smiled slightly: "This is called incompetence and killing the three armies." ”

Li Yunlong was a little pity: "This old devil of Lilin Zhongdao does have something, but it's a pity that he slipped away from Shanxi." ”

At that time, the Eighth Route Army was not equipped with aircraft, and Kuribayashi Tadado left Taiyuan Airport by plane, although Li Yunlong received information, but there was no chance to make a move.

"Sooner or later!"

Zhao Gang smiled, his tone was fierce, and then he looked at Wang Dehou:

"Chief of Staff, what's the second piece of good news?"

Wang Dehou said: "Just now Battalion Commander Zhang reported that the synthetic battalion has captured the position of the Japanese puppet army in Crouching Tiger Mountain without blood. ”

Immediately afterwards, Wang Dehou captured the Synthetic Battalion to the position of Wohu Mountain, and said it roughly.

"Zhang Dabiao, this kid, can be regarded as having learned my Li Yunlong's three-point ability."

Li Yunlong nodded when he heard this, his tone and expression were extremely satisfied.

Zhao Gang and Ding Wei also looked more and more happy, they didn't expect to capture Crouching Tiger Mountain, which was the key defense of the Japanese puppet army, so quickly, and it was bloodless.

After capturing Wohu Mountain, the infantry, tanks and heavy firepower of the Eighth Route Army can go directly to the city of Taiyuan.

"Order Zhang Dabiao to continue the offensive and strive to capture Taiyuan within today!"

Li Yunlong's eyes flickered, and he gave an order:

"Since there are thousands of puppet troops surrendering, you can do something about these puppet troops, try to outwit Taiyuan and reduce the casualties of the troops."

Now in order to survive this group of captured puppet troops, the Eighth Route Army let the puppet army go east, and the puppet army absolutely did not dare to go west.

"Yes!"

Wang Dehou turned around and went to give the order.

……

Niangzi off the battlefield.

Inside the encirclement of the Japanese army.

The artillery bombardment of the Eighth Route Army continued, and more than 100,000 shells fell on the positions of the devils every day.

Each devil can get a few shells a day.

After the outbreak of the Zhengtailu ambush battle, the flight brigade of the new regiment increased the number of Zhengtailu ambush battles and Taiyuan battles.

The flying regiment at the headquarters took over the flight group and dropped aerial bombs on the besieged devils in Niangzi Pass.

In the command of the Japanese army.

All the devil officers, including Tanabe Moritake, all had solemn faces and desperate eyes.

A group of devil lieutenant generals and major generals, plus a group of adjutant staff officers, stared at the bombed locust positions in the distance and the planes of the Eighth Route Army in the distance, dumbfounded, and turned a deaf ear to the debris of the soil and debris that was blown off by the explosion of the shells on their heads.

"How long will the Eighth Route Army shell and bombard?"

After being silent for a long time, Sakuma, the commander of the 4th Cavalry Brigade, couldn't help but ask.

But.

No one could answer his words, and no one knew exactly how long the Eighth Route Army was going to shell and bombard.

Today, it is the third day of the bombardment and shelling of the encircled locust army by the Eighth Route Army.

Every day, the Eighth Route Army would pour a large number of aerial bombs, incendiary bombs, and artillery shells into the encircled area.

As a result, the Japanese army suffered heavy losses, and food and ammunition were in short supply.

These days, the surrounded Japanese army did everything they could, but they all failed to break through.

The encirclement of the Eighth Route Army was impregnable.

The Eighth Route Army, which was originally ignored by the Japanese army and thought that its combat effectiveness was weak, became strong and became an ace tyrant after receiving a supply of weapons and ammunition.

"Every day, the Eighth Route Army shelled more than 150,000 shells and dropped more than 1,000 aerial bombs and more than 100 incendiary bombs on our positions."

"Where are our reinforcements?"

The commander of the 110th Division had bloodshot eyes and a hysterical roar.

The headquarters of the Japanese army was set up in a natural cave, but the other devils were miserable, and they could only be tortured in the open air by the double bombardment of artillery shells and aerial bombs of the Eighth Route Army.

Although some devil sappers dug some air-raid shelters, they were just drinking to quench their thirst.

"The 27th and 21st Divisions are on their way."

Moritake Tanabe replied weakly:

"Hold on for two more days at most, and we will be saved."

Suddenly, Tanabe Shengwu's eyes froze, and his murderous aura overflowed, it was all the damn Yusue Seisan!

If it weren't for the fact that Sue Seizan suggested to General Okamura Ninji that he should come to Niangzi Pass to supervise the battle.

At this time, he should be on duty in wartime in the headquarters, how could he go to this place where birds don't and be surrounded by the main force of the Eighth Route Army?

Tanabe Moritake swore that if he could get out alive, he would definitely find a way to kill the turtle grandson of Seizan Yusue!

"Can we hold out for two more days?"

The commander of the 23rd Division, Kanji Nishihara, looked around and asked.

Everyone was silent, but they knew that before the arrival of the 21st and 27th Divisions, the Eighth Route Army would definitely take the lead in launching a general attack.

The Japanese army had already suffered more than half of the casualties under the bombardment of artillery and aerial bombs.

And the next attack of the Eighth Route Army will inevitably be much stronger than expected.

"What should I do?"

The commander of the 35th Division, Tokumatsu Shigeta, looked at Moritake Tanabe.

Then.

All the devil officers all looked at Tanabe Moritake.

Tanabe Moritake's eyes were gloomy: "Continue to ask Senior General Okamura Ninji for tactical guidance!" ”

What to do?

Cold.

……

The siege and annihilation campaign of Zhengtai Road is in full swing.

The devils who were surrounded did not sit still.

After the order of the First Army Headquarters was issued, the Devil's communications corps, in the face of artillery fire, issued an operational order to break through into pieces and disperse and break through to a part of the squadrons and squads.

Subsequently.

The encircled devils began to storm the defense line of the Eighth Route Army.

Due to the terrain, the distribution of firepower, and the fact that the encirclement is too large, the encirclement was protruded by some small devil troops.

After these small devil troops broke out of the encirclement, they did not dare to fight, and immediately rushed towards the mountains in the distance.

But soon, the cavalry of the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army, which was nearby, received a notice from the brother troops to use walkie-talkies.

The devils ran in front, the cavalry of the new regiment chased behind, and the devils who broke out of the encirclement almost became a live target.

At a distance, the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army shot devils with Type 56 semi-automatic rifles and Type 56 submachine guns.

Rushing to the front and back, the cavalry of the Eighth Route Army used the cloud dragon sword to harvest the head of the devil, and the blood arrows flew out, and the head rolled down.

But.

There is an exception to this rule, a force of devils.

Near the headquarters of the First Army, the devils mixed into the troops of the 2nd Brigade and, under the orders of Masao Miyazaki, attacked the defense line of the Eighth Route Army.

Taking advantage of the Eighth Route Army's firepower being attracted by those squadrons and squads, Iwamatsu Yoshio, under the cover of the pro-guard team and Yamamoto's special team, launched an attack on the defense line of the Eighth Route Army.

Yoshio Iwamatsu's personal guards are all elite.

Not to mention, the Yamamoto team is the elite of the elite.

Although in the shelling, the pro-guard and special forces suffered some losses, but the combat effectiveness was not weakened too much.

Accurate marksmanship, dense automatic firepower, and grenades that did not miss a bullet tore a gap in the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army at once.

Subsequently.

A group of devil officers rode on military horses, and after the guards were left behind, the remaining more than 40 special agents also rode on military horses and ran in the direction of Shouyang County.

The four cavalry battalions of the new regiment all went to chase the devils who escaped from the encirclement.

Only the second battalion led by Ma Renxing remained, and as a reserve for cavalry, it did not move.

Soon, Ma Renxing learned through the radio that a small group of devils had strong firepower, and after breaking through the encirclement, they fled in the direction of Shouyang.

Ma Renxing immediately judged that this devil's cavalry force was not ordinary, and it was likely to be the devil's big fish.

Without hesitation, Ma Renxing personally led the cavalry battalion to chase down the devil.

……

Taiyuan periphery.

The besieged devils suddenly felt extremely desperate when they learned that the main force had abandoned them and that they were surrounded on Zhengtai Road.

Repeatedly attacked the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army, but there were no devils to respond on the periphery, and under the blockade of the powerful firepower of the Eighth Route Army, the encirclement could not be broken out at all, and the encirclement of the Eighth Route Army was impregnable.

The Eighth Route Army was in full bloom in the Taiyuan Battlefield, the Niangziguan Battlefield, and the Zhengtai Road Battlefield.

An encirclement posture was formed against the main forces of the devils in Shanxi.

The history is known as the Battle of the Three Blossoms.

But.

The battle is not over.

Although the devils were surrounded, few of them surrendered, and the devils, who had received bushido education since childhood, were ready to fight the Eighth Route Army to the end.
