The Japanese army attacked the position, Lieutenant General Sato's face became more and more solemn.
From the moment the baggage train was attacked, all he received was bad news, and the plane that gave him high hopes also played an imaginary role.
My mood is like riding a roller coaster, constantly changing.
"Division Commander, under the influence of thick smoke and heavy machine guns, the hit rate of aircraft bombs has been greatly reduced... we have to throw two or three incendiary bombs at the same time, using quantity to make up for accuracy..."
"There is only one plane in the sky, equipped with six incendiary bombs. If you are lucky, it can destroy at most two artillery positions of the independent regiment!"
"But listening to the sound of artillery, the Independent Regiment has at least six artillery positions deployed behind the blocking position!"
"Without the threat of aircraft, these artillery pieces can attack our mountain artillery brigade and infantry artillery squad unscrupulously!"
At this time, a messenger ran to him again and reported with fear: "Division commander..."
"The independent regiment troops attacking from the rear have already entered the baggage station and the heavy artillery position, and are in urgent need of reinforcements..."
"Division commander...the tank squadron was bombed and two more armored vehicles were destroyed..." the combat staff officer on the side suddenly interjected.
"The Eighth Route Army on the blocking position also joined the battle. They used thunder cannons to attack tank squadrons and attacking troops at close range... and used mortars to attack our mortar troops from long distances!"
"They must retreat immediately, otherwise they will not be able to retreat..."
"Rumble..."
Several thunderous explosions were heard from the front battlefield at the same time, and when I looked up, I saw four huge mushroom-like fireballs rising into the sky among the attacking troops.
A tank parked next to a ball of fire, motionless. It was obviously an accident during the explosion and it fell down!
This scene instantly made Lieutenant General Sato see the reality clearly. He clenched his fists, gritted his teeth, and said firmly: "The attacking troops immediately turned around and retreated..."
"We also retreated... made a quick march to reinforce the baggage troops and heavy artillery positions... and snatched back all the baggage ammunition and heavy artillery that the independent regiment had stolen!"
"The entire army's rations and ammunition supplies for most of the month are there. There must be no accidents..."
"Otherwise we will be in crisis of running out of food and ammunition!"
"You don't need an independent group to attack, you can drag us to death!"
The chief of staff readily carried out the order and turned to the guard captain: "Commander of the protection division retreat...leave here immediately, leave now!"
"The advantage on the battlefield lies with the independent regiment, and they also have the initiative on the battlefield. They will certainly not allow the attacking troops to retreat easily. This place may be attacked at any time. It is too dangerous!"
The guard captain understood, and regardless of whether Lieutenant General Sato agreed or not, he ordered several guards to support him and retreat to the rear.
The chief of staff continued to order: "The seventh and eighth brigades will retreat together and return to support the heavy artillery brigade and the supply troops... No matter what happens, we must unconditionally cooperate with the guard to protect the safety of the division commander!"
"The others will stay here with me to support the attacking troops..."
As soon as Lieutenant General Sato stepped forward, the attacking troops began to retreat, and the scene expected by the chief of staff happened at the same time.
A large number of people suddenly appeared in the blocking position where only the sound of gunfire and artillery could be heard. The densely packed soldiers of the independent regiment were like wolves smelling the smell of blood. They howled and rushed out of the position to hunt the attacking troops from different directions.
The tank squadron is supposed to be a strong backing for the attacking troops, helping them block all pursuing enemies.
But the artillery attack just now frightened them. Of the twelve tanks, four were left.
Faced with artillery shells and explosive charges falling from the sky, I was afraid that I would be hit.
After receiving the order to retreat, he turned around and ran away, not daring to stay for a second longer, completely forgetting his cover mission.
As soon as they ran away, the offensive troops were completely exposed to the counterattack troops of the independent regiment, allowing them to be slaughtered...
In the heavy artillery position of the Sato Division, Huang Yu followed the second team of the special force to rush in first.
Looking at the large-caliber howitzer with a barrel thicker than the mouth of a bowl in front of me, my eyes immediately became greedy.
Touch this, look at that, I wish I could take them all for myself now...
Duan Peng's reaction was no less conciliatory. He stared at a heavy artillery and said with bright eyes: "Batalion Commander, it was these heavy artillery that leveled the blocking position. They are much more powerful than the 105 mm caliber mountain cannon equipped by the heavy artillery battalion!"
"We seized so much at one time, we have to take back a few of them!"
"When we fight the Japanese in the future, let them have a taste of being bombarded!"
Huang Yu was very excited after hearing this...
Looking at the heavy artillery positions arranged in three rows in front of me, my first reaction was to get them all back.
But he soon regained his composure from the initial excitement, and saw Duan Peng giving a serious order: "Prepare explosive packs... blow up all these howitzers for me!"
"Exploded?"
Duan Peng stared at Huang Yu with a pair of big eyes full of disbelief, as if he had heard a big joke.
He really couldn't understand why the battalion commander would give such an order!
"They were all blown up, not a single door left... Go faster, if you are late, you may be snatched back by the little Japs!"
Seeing that Duan Peng was still staring at him with a dumbfounded expression, without any intention of exploding the cannon, Huang Yu continued to explain: "The howitzer is too heavy and must be towed away by car... We definitely can't take it away with our small force!"
"The Sato Division will not allow us to take these heavy artillery away and keep them as our own. We will definitely fight to get them back!"
"They still have a large number of troops that can fight. As long as they send two brigades back to support the heavy artillery positions, we are no match for them. We may be severely damaged by them. It's not worth losing our lives here!"
"The assault battalion must destroy all the artillery and artillery and evacuate the battlefield before the Japanese reinforcements arrive, so that the maximum result can be achieved at the minimum cost..."
After saying that, regardless of whether Duan Peng understood it or not, he quickly grabbed the explosive package from his subordinates, pulled off the fuse, put it on the artillery mount, and ran away!
"Start exploding cannons...immediately lie down and take cover..."
"Rumble..."
An explosion soon sounded behind Huang Yu, and the howitzer weighing several kilograms was instantly dismembered into several parts, flying everywhere.
The long barrel was also blown into pieces...
Even if it was snatched away by the Japanese, there would be no way to repair it.
Duan Peng was very heartbroken. He saw Huang Yu getting up from the ground and rushing towards the next howitzer with an explosive pack. He gritted his teeth and ordered: "Execute the order... blow up all the howitzers... go faster..."
"Rumble..."
The same explosion sounded at the Japanese army's supply camp.
Fires shot into the sky and black smoke billowed...
Carloads of grain and trucks of ammunition will either turn into fireballs or be blown into scrap metal...
Lieutenant General Sato had just retreated three to four hundred meters when he heard explosions coming from the heavy artillery position and the baggage position. The explosions were louder and louder, and they were getting closer and closer.
Looking up, I saw dozens of black smoke rising into the sky.
