060 Poke the hornet's nest (7)

Ryuichi Okamoto sat in the car at the head of the team, although he was anxious, but his face was still steady, holding the left official knife in his hand, and the five cars that opened the road in front of him suddenly pulled away a few hundred meters.

More than 10 cars in Pingcheng all drove out, two squadrons of the military police brigade, one artillery squad and a machine gun squad formed by collecting ronins and machine gunners poured out, almost 500 people, the artillery squad and the machine gun squad enjoyed the benefits of riding in the car, dragging two 92 infantry guns and carrying 4 Type 92 heavy machine guns, as well as 4 94 90 mm mortars and one base ammunition first;

Then behind the gendarmerie brigade was a reinforced battalion of the Imperial Allied Army, plus a machine gun company and a mortar company under the regiment, nearly 700 people, led by the regiment commander Feng Qingshi to follow behind Okamoto Ryuichi's team.

Finally, a baggage team composed of carts and mules and horses, escorted by a small group of little devils, captured nearly 300 strong men from Pingcheng to transport ammunition supplies.

There are more than 1,500 people, pulling out a queue of nearly one kilometer, and it looks very scary.

As soon as the devil made a move, the eyeliners of all parties began to frantically probe and pass on the news.

Because now no one knows why the little devil suddenly came out of the nest.

Almost at the same time, Lincheng and Mianshan Fortress little devils also set off at the same time.

In the direction of the Mianshan Fortress, the first and second squadrons of the 38th Brigade of the Little Devils, as well as the 2 machine gun squads and 1 artillery squad of the machine gun squadron attached to the brigade, launched a rapid march towards Wanjia Town with 5 cars carrying heavy weapons.

In Lincheng, the captain of the 40th Brigade, who received the order of the brigade commander, Katsu Horiuchi, was in the center of the left, and more than 50 cars were pieced together from Lincheng, and he personally led the Lincheng task force to achieve a fully mechanized march!

The entire task force not only dispatched two infantry squadrons, but Katsumi Horiuchi also persuaded the brigade commander to allow him to bring 2 mountain guns from the Lincheng Artillery Squadron and 2 92 infantry guns from the brigade! With the addition of 2 machine gun squads, the combat effectiveness of the Lincheng task force is almost close to that of a brigade.

Horiuchi Katsumi is different from Harada Jiro, before going to war, he had already considered the worst-case scenario to meet the main force of a brigade on the 8th Route in Wanjia Town!

After all, such a thing as robbing the military column is something that the general Tu 8 Road does not dare to think, and there is no intelligence interception.

As for those who inadvertently encountered the Tu 8 Road, even if it was a regiment, it would be difficult to win a short period of time against a military column escorted by nearly a squadron and an armored car, but Wanjiazhen reported that the enemy had dispatched the 92 infantry guns, which basically ruled out the possibility of accidental interception of the Tu 8 Road.

The main force that appeared on the 8th road!

Next, there was no news from Wanjia Town and no return from the military columns, and all kinds of signs showed that the worst-case scenario of the total annihilation of the army over there had occurred.

It is precisely because it is speculated that the main force of the 8th Route appeared in Wanjia Town that Major General Mitsuo Kawada will mobilize a large force close to 2 brigades to encircle and suppress.

Nearly 500 people were dispatched to the Mianshan fortress and nearly 700 people were dispatched to the city, plus artillery and heavy machine guns, which was more than the strength of a brigade.

The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength, and with such combat effectiveness, he feels confident that he will win this battle.

And in order to shorten the reinforcement time and reduce the disconnection in time, Katsumi Horiuchi has done his best to shorten the time for the Lincheng team to rush to Wanjia Town to less than 3 hours.

In this way, the distance between his troops and the troops departing from the Mianshan Fortress was a little more than an hour, and Horiuchi Katsumi did not inform the troops of the Mianshan Task Force that they were waiting for the Lincheng Task Force to converge.

With the combat effectiveness of the Mianshan task force, Horiuchi Katsumi didn't believe that it would not be able to support it for an hour.

......

Now, all the circumstances have been taken by surprise.

In this battle of extremely asymmetrical information, the top leaders of both sides are blind and completely rely on their own understanding to operate blindly.

On the side of the little devils, they have already made arrangements according to the treatment of an 8-way brigade, and on the side of Dagushan, Gao Jianwu designed the campaign according to the rhythm of 3 waves of reinforcements, and believed that the first wave of reinforcements on the eastern front was the weakest link.

And now Gao Jianwu crossed the blocking position on the eastern front and appeared in the mountains and forests on the side of the highway about 2 miles east of the position, hiding in the mountains and forests with the help of camouflage clothes, and slowly gnawing dry food to recover his strength.

The commando trotted about 5 miles along the way, that is, more than a dozen, which is much easier than the daily training of 15 kilometers of cross-country running, but considering that they have been fighting for two consecutive games, the physical exertion of the team members is still relatively large.

Song Tiecheng finished nibbling on a piece of dry food, and took a big sip of water, a little satisfied. Pull out the machine gun magazine and check it, then fill it up.

"Captain, will the little devil really come out?" After staring at the road ahead for a while without movement, Song Tiecheng couldn't help but ask.

"Will definitely come. No, they're already on their way! In Gao Jianwu's mind, the intelligence system has been updated at this moment, and the little devils of Pingcheng, Lincheng and Mianshan Fortress have all been dispatched.

It's just that this low system is also prompted here, and I don't even bother to update the scale of a sortie.

"Then labor and management are going to do a big job today." Song Tiecheng became excited.

"Today is when you're busy," Gao Jianwu shook his head, "Maybe you'll have to fight three times in a row!" Tired of urinating blood! ”

??? Song Tiecheng was a bunch of question marks.

Gao Jianwu stopped talking, staring in the direction of Pingcheng, falling into a short period of deep thought.

Song Tiecheng didn't nag anymore, he still had a good eye, he knew when to ask and when to learn to shut up.

......

West.

Shen Quan and his team had reached the sniper position, and after a brief observation of the environment, Shen Quan couldn't help but admire Gao Jianwu again.

He didn't know when Gao Jianwu was so familiar with the terrain in this area, so he found such a good sniper position: the road was sandwiched between the mountains on both sides.

Placing the main force on the hill is condescending, the little devil can't spread the attack formation on the road at all, if the little devil doesn't have artillery to bombard the mountain, Shen Quan even thinks that he can snipe the little devil's attack with a detachment.

"Xiao Zhou, quickly blast that stone to block the road, and the rest is to build fortifications on the two sides of the mountain on the horse!" Shen Quan put away his sigh and commanded the two detachments to start moving immediately.

"Mortars are concentrated, and you are here to command this mortar platoon." Shen Quan observed the surroundings, pointed to a hill and said to Wang Xi, the deputy leader of the detachment.

"You go to this hill to build a mortar position, and your task is to take out the enemy's artillery at all costs! If the little devils don't send out artillery, you just hold back and don't care about the sniper position. ”

"The key to this battle is to lock up the little devils first, as long as the little devil artillery is knocked out, no matter how many of them are, they won't be able to get by!"

"Understood! Instructor, our task is to stare at the little devil artillery. "Wang Xilai, as the deputy captain of the detachment that catches ducks on the shelves, has been forced to grow a lot, and his face shows a perseverance that does not match his age.

"The mortar group resolutely completed the task!"

Although there are no grandiose words, Shen Quan knows that this is the background color of the old foundation of 8 roads, and the background color of the back that is worth handing over.

Shen Quan didn't say anything more, stepped forward, patted Wang Xilai on the shoulder hard, and everything was silent.
