Chapter nine hundred and fortieth fight again
Perhaps it was for revenge or to vent its anger, the round of artillery fire took ten minutes before stopping.
Another infantry squadron brought by the captain quickly unfolded and launched a new round of attacks using the offensive method they were best at.
It lasted for twenty minutes before Jiang Chao repelled the attack. In the middle, the Japanese broke through the grenade and rushed to the near-stone wall and threw grenades behind the stone wall.
The newly formed first battalion suffered a great loss. Faced with the grenades thrown by the Japanese, Jiang Chao took several minutes to organize the troops to kill the Japanese who rushed over with submachine guns.
"Instructor, are the three companies moving in place..." Seeing that the Japanese were already a little weak in the new round of attacks, Xiong Changhe reacted quickly and stared at Jiang Chao and asked.
Liang Cheng immediately realized that it was time for the troops to close the net.
After looking at the sky slowly getting darker above my head, I answered immediately.
"The first company is responsible for assaulting the Japanese artillery positions... Because of the limited military strength, the Japanese did not arrange troops for the artillery guards. Only one platoon of traitors was arranged by the Japanese to be coolies and carry artillery shells for them. In addition to them, there were more than 130 Japanese and puppet troops in total..."
"The Second Company, the Third Company, the Artillery Company, attack the Japanese infantry respectively..."
"The heavy machine gun company and the guards are responsible for blocking all possible gaps in the surrounding Japanese who may break through..."
"All troops are in place and can attack as long as they see the signal..."
As soon as Liang Cheng finished speaking, the Japanese attacking on the battlefield showed signs of retreating, and the reminder from their subordinates also sounded in their ears.
"Battery Commander, the Japanese are going to retreat..."
"Start to close the net~" Xiong Changhe made a decisive decision.
"Lao Liang, the Japanese are now focusing on the retreating troops. Now that they start attacking, they will definitely be caught off guard. I will send a signal immediately to encircle and annihilate the remaining Japanese around the village~"
"Smack it..."
Three signal flares took off and exploded in the air, and they could be seen clearly for more than ten miles away.
On the battlefield, many Japanese also heard the explosion of signal flares, subconsciously raised their heads, and witnessed the gorgeous fireworks generated by the explosion of signal flares overhead.
"Dadada..."
Before they could react, there was a dense sound of machine gun strafing sound behind them.
The Japanese in charge of the warning became the first batch of dead souls at the gunpoint of the first battalion.
"We're fooled..." The captain subconsciously threw himself to the ground and avoided the bullet that had just flew over his head.
"Sir, there are at least two companies of the Eighth Route Army behind us who are coming!" The adjutant next to us reported in a hurry.
The three heavy machine guns brought by the troops were all arranged on the battlefield, and the muzzles were facing the village. Most of the light machine guns equipped by the troops were also equipped in the hands of the offensive troops in order to strengthen their offensive firepower. Now the offensive troops have not yet withdrawn, and the troops can only counterattack on the spot with the remaining five light machine guns.
The Eighth Route Army of the two companies were equipped with more than a dozen light machine guns, and they were held in their arms by machine gunners. The two machine guns stared at the Japanese and one machine gun. The remaining few machine guns of the Japanese were shot and were all shot to death and could not move.
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army's offensive firepower is too strong, we can't stand it!" The adjutant reported immediately.
He had no troops or equipment in his hands, and the captain was anxious but had no choice.
He could only insist on the order and said: "Continue to withstand... Let the offensive troops retreat immediately, occupy the hills on our left wing, rely on the high ground to defend and wait for assistance..."
"Where is the artillery, order the artillery to move to us and rely on the high ground to defend!"
"Also, contact the county town quickly. We are fooled and are defending Zhanglianggu Village. Please send troops to reinforce quickly, attack inside and outside, and kill the Eighth Route Army that attacked us..."
The attack of the first battalion did not stop due to the command of the captain.
The captain who had just calmed down, with the next two reports, his whole body instantly became unfavorable.
"Sir, artillery...the artillery position was attacked by the Eighth Route Army and suffered heavy losses!"
Before the captain could react, another report rang in his ears.
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army guarding the village has come out... It is difficult for the offensive troops to withdraw..."
"Boom boom boom..."
Immediately afterwards, a few violent explosions rang beside the captain.
Three shells hit nearby and exploded, and five or six soldiers were blown up in one go.
"It's over..." These two words appeared in the captain's mind, and his face turned pale.
The atmosphere at the first battalion command was much better. After the troops' encirclement and annihilation battle began, all kinds of good news kept coming.
"Battery Commander, the first company has entered the Japanese artillery position and is fighting the remaining Japanese. The battle can end in at most ten minutes!"
"Battery Commander, the Second and Third Company is progressing smoothly. The Japanese are shrinking their defenses, as if they intend to occupy the small highland at the east end of the village and stay in arbitrage."
Xiong Changhe immediately ordered: "Order the nearest third company to draw out a platoon to seize the high ground in front of the Japanese, firmly block them, and eliminate them under the high ground!"
Not long after, Xiong Changhe received the first good news.
The first company wiped out all the Japanese artillery soldiers and seized all the artillery equipment from the Japanese.
"Send the captured mortars and shells to the mortar company and let them smash them with shells. Don't save me ammunition, quickly resolve the battle, and kill the remaining Japanese!" Xiong Changhe ordered with excitement on his face.
At this moment, the Investigation Platoon Leader hurriedly broke in.
"Captain, the Japanese reinforcements have left the city... More than 500 Japanese, brought a large number of mortars and heavy machine guns, and rushed towards us in more than 20 cars..."
"The investigation and siege are damaging the highway and slowing down the Japanese reinforcements, but it will definitely not be delayed for too long!"
Xiong Changhe frowned and fell into deep thought. No one knew what he was thinking.
Liang Cheng next to him was anxious and frowned and reminded: "There are less than a hundred Japanese on the battlefield. I suggest that you press the company up, attack directly, end the battle quickly, and then retreat..."
"No..." Xiong Changhe suddenly spoke, his tone was very decisive, without any intention of negotiation, and his eyes quickly shot out two rays of light.
Then he looked at his subordinates and replied arrogantly: "I originally planned to kill half of the Japanese infantry brigade here, but I didn't expect that the entire Japanese infantry brigade would come. Since that's the case, let's give him a lot and eat all the battle!"
Before Liang Cheng could react, he began to give orders: "The guard company will set out now to reinforce the reconnaissance and slack the speed of Japanese reinforcements~"
"Don't kill all the remaining Japanese on the battlefield. Stay behind the new battalion and surround them and prevent them from breaking through!"
"The others followed me to ambush the Japanese who came to reinforce them. They were on the ridge three or four hundred meters east of the village, blocking the front, and two or three consecutive roundabouts, and then launched an attack together to encircle and annihilate them."
"Mortar Company and heavy machine gun Company, cooperate with the first company to guard the front, and then participate in the next encirclement and annihilation battle~"
"Infantry Artillery Company, use the six mountain cannons and infantry cannons seized by the Japanese, and send them to the battlefield to participate in the final encirclement and annihilation battle!"
"Time is tight, each company will start to act now!"
Chapter completed!
