795 Ding Wei: Show your power in straight-line combat (1)
..."Coward, can you think of a way to hit him?"
After Sun Zhenguo led the soldiers of the straight-line team to evacuate quickly, he did not evacuate all the soldiers.
He arranged some 50 small artillery groups along the way, with three soldiers in groups, responsible for sneak attacks on the advancing Japanese army with cold artillery along the way.
At this time, a team leader lurking on the mountain road, more than 500 meters away from the Japanese, whispered.
The gunner who was adjusting the firing angle of the 50 cannon in front of him said with some embarrassment: "Squad leader, we just measured the distance with the ranging telescope. The Japanese are more than 500 meters away from us. The distance is too far, and the hit rate may not be high.
."
The squad leader nodded and said: "Although the distance is far, our goal is big!
Did you see the Japanese medium tank whose tracks were blown off?
Our goal is to bombard the Japanese tanks, preferably to kill the Japanese engineers who are repairing the tanks."
"Buy time for our blockade."
"Squad leader, then our one cannon is definitely not enough. Why don't we gather all our cold artillery teams and fire the cannons in groups to increase the hit rate. There will always be one or two shells that can hit." The gunner suggested.
"Hey, this is a good idea, I think I'll do it like this!"
Under the command of the squad leader, the soldiers of several cold artillery teams quickly calibrated their shooting elements. Under the unified command of the squad leader, the loaders put the shells into the barrel almost at the same time.
Boom——
Five or six artillery shells drew a perfect parabola in mid-air, and then exploded in the area where the Japanese were repairing the tank on the mountain road.
The excited squad leader looked at the past with a telescope, and then couldn't help but shout: "What a beautiful shot! Just these few shots are enough for the little devil to drink a pot, retreat, retreat immediately!"
In order to prevent the Japanese army from retaliating with artillery fire, the squad leader quickly issued an order.
In the sudden cold attack on the mountain road, relying on the hit rate of the group fire, two artillery shells did hit the side of the Japanese engineers who were repairing the tank, and the two Japanese engineers were killed on the spot.
"Baga, cover, cover!" Miki, who was eagerly waiting for the tank to be repaired so that he could hunt down the fleeing Eighth Route Army, shouted angrily.
It's just that the machine gun fired back along with the artillery fire, but it didn't have any effect.
The soldiers of the Cold Artillery Group succeeded in the sneak attack and immediately fled away.
Then he continued to lurk at the next ambush location along the way.
Waiting for the right opportunity to attack the Japanese army with cold artillery again.
On the other side, Sun Zhenguo led the first and second platoons of the straight-moving team to lay low on the second line blocking position.
He checked his watch many times and saw that there were not many minutes left before the 30 minutes needed by the comrades of the anti-tank team of the Independence Regiment.
As time passed quickly, the cold gun team returned.
Sun Zhenguo quickly asked: "How is the situation?"
The squad leader said: "Hey, battalion commander, don't worry, we made several sneak attacks on the Japs along the way and killed many Japs engineers.
I don’t know when that little devil’s tank will be repaired!”
Just as he was talking, he contacted Sun Zhenguo and the communications personnel of the anti-tank combat team of the independent regiment, and returned to report:
"Report to the battalion commander, the comrades of the Independent Regiment asked me to come over and report the situation to you. All the anti-tank ambush traps ahead have been constructed."
"Team Leader Zhang said that what he means is that the next task of blocking the Japanese tanks and cavalry units will be handed over to their combat team, and our direct vehicle troops will continue to carry out roundabout combat missions!"
Liu Zhenguo was not an indecisive person. After thinking for a while, he nodded: "In this way, Fourth Platoon Commander, you will lead a platoon to assist the comrades of the Independent Regiment in blocking the Japanese tanks and cavalry troops."
"The others set off with me immediately and continue their roundabout mission."
"We must seize the time. The current detours are fought for us by the soldiers fighting at the front."
"The mission, within an hour, must be to go back to the back of the Yamauchi Regiment!"
"Yes——"
After making up their mind, Liu Zhenguo and the anti-tank combat team of the independent regiment split into two groups.
The original route was not in the same direction, so the two parties did not continue to meet.
Liu Zhenguo directly led the main force of the straight-moving troops, using the mobility of bicycles, and after setting foot on the path, continued to make a rapid detour toward the back of the Japanese Yamauchi Regiment.
...On the third line of defensive positions on Xiaozhaigou Road, the battle situation at this time also experienced a rather dramatic reversal.
It was originally the Guizishanchi Alliance, launching an attack on the third line of defense positions defended by the Second Independent Regiment led by Wang Leihu.
Wang Leihu used tactics to put the Japanese brigade in, then suddenly started fighting and entangled the Japanese vanguard brigade. He also used artillery to attack the main force of the Japanese army and cover the detour of the flanking straight-moving brigade.
Under the attack from all sides, the little devils of the Yamauchi Alliance passively chose to retreat.
Wang Leihu, however, refused to give up and even issued an order to attack and continued the pursuit.
Just like that, the roles of both parties were completely reversed.
Now the Japanese are relying on the terrain and terrain to defend themselves, while Wang Leihu leads the soldiers of the Second Independent Regiment to take the initiative to attack.
When analyzing the battle situation, Wang Leihu's mind was very clear:
"As soon as the Japanese retreat, we must stick up. Otherwise, once the Japanese have a chance to breathe, they can not only accumulate strength again, but also launch a strong attack on our position.
Once the Japs return to support and a new group of comrades come out from the flanks, it will be dangerous."
Having said this, Wang Leihu's words were filled with unabashed confidence:
"Now that things have changed, this devil still thinks that our independent regiment was the independent regiment that lacked guns and artillery back then?"
"So what if there is one regiment of Japs? The formation of the Japs' regiment is exactly our Eighth Route Army Combat Group. I want to use practical actions to tell the little Japs that even if they are fighting at the same level, even if the Japs have a certain strength advantage,
Our independent group can still beat his little devil howling."
"Inform the first battalion to continue attacking from the front, but they are absolutely not allowed to break away from the fortifications and charge. Send a company to each flank to continue fighting in a roundabout way to put pressure on the little devils!"
"Yes!"
……
When the head-on confrontation is in full swing.
On the left side of Xiaozhaigou Road.
Sun Zhenguo led the direct team and continued to make a detour to the back of the Yamauchi United Team.
The anti-tank combat team of the Independent Regiment, led by team leader Zhang Changzhi, ambushed both sides of the mountain road where anti-tank traps had been set up early in the morning.
The little devil on the mountain road finally repaired the tank and got back on the road.
This time, both Miki and Nakamura learned the lesson and let the engineers go first, carrying mine detectors back and forth to check whether there were any mines laid by Balu along the way.
I just walked hundreds of meters in one breath and didn't detect any movement.
Considering that the Eighth Route Army was encircling the rear of the alliance and the situation was critical, Miki and Nakamura combined their forces and immediately ordered the team to move forward at full speed.
The cruel Miki, in order to avoid problems with his own tanks and affect the speed of pursuit, arranged in advance for several cavalry scouts to quickly lead the charge.
In this way, even if the Eighth Route Army encounters a mine planted somewhere along the way, the tanks following behind will be able to react.
Several Japanese cavalrymen leading the way showed their determination to die.
After they handed over the long-written family letter to Miki, they rode their war horses and led the team to rush forward quickly.
Not long after, the entire Japanese tank and cavalry team successfully stepped into the trap laid in advance by the soldiers of the independent regiment's anti-tank combat team...
