Chapter 706: Captain, this is a chaotic battle (first update)
At the Japanese Brigade Headquarters in Baoding, Major General Fujita was just lying on the bed preparing to sleep when a rapid knock on the door rang.
The staff officer on duty didn't wait for him to speak, opened the door and rushed in.
"General..."
"The troops marching south were attacked. Should we send mobile troops to reinforce the battlefield?"
The drowsiness on Fujita's face was instantly wiped away. He stood up from the bed, put on his military uniform and walked to the war room.
As he walked, he ordered: "All eight squadrons are dispatched."
"As planned, two internal and external blockades were formed to surround the railway guerrillas."
"Nothing you say tonight will stop the railway guerrillas from escaping again."
Entering the war room, combat orders were immediately sent out.
The quiet room quickly became lively.
The phones were ringing one after another, the messengers and communications staff were coming in and out, and the latest news from the front line was constantly reaching Major General Fujita's ears.
"General, the reinforcements have left the city..." the telephone soldier covered the phone and reported.
"We are marching rapidly along the railway line, working with armored trains to reinforce the battlefield."
Before Major General Fujita could answer the call, he saw a communications staff officer running towards him in a hurry.
"General..."
"The railway garrison reports: The military column seized by the railway guerrillas has passed the Wangzhuang stronghold, traveling at a speed of about 20 kilometers per hour."
The chief of staff glanced at the sand table and analyzed Major General Fujita: "Brigade commander..."
"With the current speed of the army, they and the reinforcements will meet up in the Tangzhuang area..."
"The terrain there is flat, which is very suitable for our army to maneuver quickly."
"I suggest that the reinforcements march over quickly and set up an ambush there in advance to encircle and annihilate the railway guerrillas."
Major General Fujita stared at the sand table for half a minute before making a decision: "Go and give the order now."
"Destroying the railway guerrillas, I will personally take credit for them."
…………
Junping garrison former enemy headquarters.
As soon as the Japanese reinforcements left Baoding, Huang Yu received the news.
Looking at Kong Jie and Li Yunlong, they asked seriously: "The Japanese mobile troops have been dispatched, exactly eight infantry squadrons. Are all our troops in place?"
Li Yunlong patted his chest and replied: "My three camps will be in place as soon as it gets dark."
"As long as Duan Peng leads the Japanese reinforcements to Tangzhuang, I will kill as many as they come. I promise not to let a single little Japanese go."
After saying that, he pulled out the box cannon stuck in his waist and said with an eager look on his face: "This place is less than two kilometers away from the battlefield."
"I can still catch up with the battle if I kill you now."
"The proportion of new recruits in the team exceeds 30%."
"In order to protect them and enable them to form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, I require all cadres above the company in the regiment to go down to the grassroots level and teach the new recruits how to fight step by step."
"As the leader of the group, I am no exception."
"The headquarters will be left to you. I will go to the battlefield and lead by example."
After finishing speaking, Kong Jie rushed out of the war room like the wind before he could open his mouth.
Looking at Li Yunlong's quickly disappearing figure, Kong Jie said with a helpless smile: "This Li Yunlong really doesn't have a lesson to learn."
"He started acting wild again just after he became the leader of the regiment. I don't know how long he can stay in the only regiment."
Huang Yu analyzed with a smile: "Captain, don't worry."
"Tonight's battle doesn't have any technical content, it's just troublesome to prepare for."
"If it really breaks out, it will be a chaotic battle."
"The troops fight in battalion units with the Japanese reinforcements. Whoever destroys the opponent first wins."
"The headquarters we are in is almost useless."
"How about we go to the front line too."
"Nearly all the guards here are veterans."
"Sent to the battlefield, at least dozens of recruits can be taken care of."
Kong Jie also hasn’t fought in a long time.
Although his position has not changed, and he always wears the hat of regimental commander on his head, he has more and more troops in his hands. Every time there is a war, he needs to sit in the headquarters and coordinate from the center.
My hands have already been itchy.
As soon as Huang Yu finished speaking, he took out the box cannon and ordered with bright eyes: "Go, why don't you go..."
After saying that, he rushed outside the headquarters, shouting as he walked: "Guard company, follow me..."
"I'm going to kill a few little devils tonight with my own hands."
"Otherwise, the hands that kill the Japanese will be raw."
…………
"Speed up, the railway guerrillas are just ahead..." the Japanese squadron leader waved his command knife and ordered while rushing forward.
More than two hundred Japanese soldiers followed closely behind. Some were carrying 38-meter caps, some were holding light machine guns, and others were carrying mortars and heavy machine guns. They formed a battle formation and charged forward.
At this moment, several figures suddenly disappeared from the squadron leader's field of vision.
The whole person was as if he had been given a shot of blood. He pointed at the approximate location of the figure and his eyes flashed as he ordered: "One hundred and fifty meters ahead on the left..."
"Machine gun fire, grenade attack, kill the enemies there..."
"Others continue to attack and advance, and they must block the railway guerrillas."
A minute later, the squadron leader rushed to the location where the figure had just appeared.
There was not a single body on the ground except for the dirt that had just been exploded by the grenade and a few drops of blood.
Although I was very disappointed, my determination to pursue the railway guerrillas was not affected. On the contrary, I became more and more excited as I pursued them.
"Someone in the railway guerrillas was injured."
"Follow the blood trail and we will surely eliminate them..."
"Send a telegram to the Fourth Squadron immediately."
"The railway guerrillas are fleeing towards them. We should immediately divide our troops to intercept them and try to kill them from both front and rear."
More than two hundred Japanese soldiers became excited at the same time.
Whoever kills the railway guerrillas will be given credit by the brigade commander.
Major General Fujita's promise of reinforcements has spread.
The squadron leader with the highest rank in the team is also a captain. If Fujita takes a fancy to him, he can be promoted to a higher rank with just one sentence.
No one wanted to miss this good opportunity to be favored by the brigade leader.
Just as they were frantically chasing the special forces team, the First Battalion of the Solitary Regiment was quickly rushing towards them.
Although the battlefield they were on was a plain with a clear view. But because it was night, the Japanese pursuers were advancing with torches, and the first battalion did not hold up torches. As a result, the first battalion could clearly see every move of the Japanese army, but the Japanese did not know the existence of the first battalion.
"Machine gun preparation..." Li Yunlong rushed while calculating the distance between the two troops, staring at the little Jaap and giving a sudden order.
More than 20 machine gunners from the entire battalion rushed to the front of the team.
He immediately held the light machine gun on his shoulder to his chest, pointing the black muzzle straight ahead.
"Load the bullets..." Li Yunlong ordered again.
The distance between the two sides has been shortened from 300 meters to 100 meters.
The little devils holding torches were like a row of live targets, completely exposed to more than twenty light machine guns.
"The first company encircled from the left wing, the second company encircled from the right wing...the third company encircled it from the front..."
"When the machine gun fires, I'll rush everyone out..."
"First surround the enemy, then gather them together and annihilate them..."
"shot……"
"Da da da……"
The sound of violent machine gun fire soon rang in Li Yunlong's ears.
More than twenty machine gun flames instantly appeared in the dark night.
The rain of bullets intertwined with each other to form an airtight fire net, quickly enveloping dozens of Japanese soldiers.
The three infantry companies were like three sharp arrows, rushing toward the Japanese from three different directions.
The Japanese squadron leader reacted the fastest. He fell to the ground as soon as the gunshots were fired. He turned around and saw machine gun flames suddenly coming out from his side. He was frightened and shouted a series of orders from his mouth at the same time.
"Enemy attack..."
"Get down quickly..."
"The enemy who ambushed us is on the left flank of the team..."
"Machine gun counterattack, stop them..."
"Grenade and mortar fire immediately to kill those machine gun fire points."
"Ta-ta-da...dong-dong-dong...boom..."
The sound of gunfire and artillery soon sounded on this small battlefield.
After a while, nearly half of the more than 20 light machine guns belonging to a battalion were misfired.
Next to each light machine gun are at least two machine gunners.
The remaining machine gunners were pinned to the ground with Japanese heavy machine gun fire behind them, and they didn't even have a chance to raise their heads, let alone shoot.
Li Yunlong lay on the ground with his men, but he was not anxious at all.
Under the cover of night, the outflanking troops were quickly attacking the Japanese army from behind.
This is the biggest trump card for a battalion to turn defeat into victory.
Before the trump card is released, no matter how much advantage the devil has, it will be false.
Besides, the first battalion was also equipped with a lot of heavy machine guns and mortars. They had been hidden on the flanks and did not participate in the battle.
When the outflanking troops complete the encirclement, these heavy machine guns and mortars will become the last straw for the little devil.
"Pa bang..."
Two red flares suddenly flew out from behind the Japs.
Li Yunlong burst into laughter on the spot and said excitedly.
"The encirclement has been formed, and all fire companies have joined the battle..."
"All the soldiers in the battalion, including myself and below, will participate in the battle. As soon as the heavy machine guns are fired, they will launch an all-out attack on the Japanese and end the battle as soon as possible."
"Fire..."
Six heavy machine guns suddenly joined the battle, forming two-by-two groups and firing crossfire, instantly suppressing the enemy's three heavy machine guns.
Six mortars were not to be outdone.
As soon as the heavy machine gun fired, six balls of fire shot up among the Japanese soldiers, and several Japanese soldiers lying on the ground were blown away.
The firepower of the Japanese suppressing a battalion of machine gunners disappeared instantly.
More than twenty light machine guns rejoined the battle, and the intensive firepower killed dozens of Japs at once.
This turn of events frightened the Japanese squadron leader into stunned silence.
Seeing that all the heavy machine gun squads and mortar squads under his command had lost their combat effectiveness, I was completely confused.
They are their biggest weapon against the Eighth Route Army. Now that they are gone, the army will become a tiger with its fangs pulled out, and its combat effectiveness will be reduced sharply.
After looking at the casualties of the troops, he ordered with a look of pain: "Baga, the enemy's firepower is too strong, we are no match..."
"Machine gun cover, the troops will withdraw from the battle immediately, and there can be no more fighting."
"Pa bang bang..."
The familiar sound of rifle fire suddenly sounded behind the squadron leader.
When the two sides were more than a hundred meters apart, he could not see the outflanking troops under the cover of night.
After the general attack began, the outflanking troops quickly charged forward, and the distance between the two sides quickly shortened to fifty meters.
The squadron leader finally saw clearly the Eighth Route Army that suddenly appeared behind him.
But it was too late.
They charged forward with guns in hand. Several soldiers who were about to move were beaten into pieces as soon as they got up. It was definitely too late to temporarily deploy machine gunners. All they had to do was watch their own butts being stabbed.
