Most of the troops of the 79th Regiment were exposed, and the second battalion was fiercely blocked by the Japanese army and was unable to move forward.
On the east side of the 2nd Battalion, the 3rd Battalion of the 79th Regiment was not discovered by the Japanese. The battalion moved all the way south and approached behind the 22nd Regiment's position. When it was close to the Japanese position, soldiers from the 3rd Battalion threw grenades.
Launched the attack. At this time, the 22nd Japanese Regiment was in the bamboo forest on the north side of Wangjiazhai, and was also surrounded by the national soldiers of the battalion.
The officers, communications troops and messengers of the Japanese military headquarters guarded the regiment headquarters. Captain Nagatsu Sahige of the 22nd regiment felt that there was no hope of breaking through and prepared to dispose of the regiment's flag to prevent it from being captured by the Japanese army.
However, the 79th Regiment did not conduct detailed investigation of the Japanese army. It only detected the Japanese defense forces, but had no idea about the internal distribution of Japanese troops. Even three battalions surrounded the Japanese army, which is the 22nd Regiment.
They don't know the headquarters.
A Japanese army on guard northwest of the Japanese Army Headquarters engaged in a fierce battle with the National Army. The main force of the army was attracted by the counterattacking Japanese Army. The 22nd Regiment Headquarters took advantage of the attention of the National Army to be attracted and escaped from the Third Battalion.
In the encirclement, the national army only seized sake and other supplies in the headquarters.
In the subsequent battles, due to the failure of various units' counterattacks against the Japanese army, the 79th Regiment encountered a large Japanese army and was forced to retreat. However, the 3rd Battalion of the 79th Regiment was unable to receive the order to retreat because it was deep in the rear of the Japanese army. It did not receive the order to retreat until after dawn.
, was discovered by the Japanese army, and immediately launched an attack with prepared troops. The battalion suffered heavy losses, and then retreated to the northwest and returned to the national army position.
There was no coordination between the attacking forces, the investigation situation was not timely, the combat plan was not adjusted, and the communication conditions were harsh.
The Chinese army itself faced a situation where the weapons and equipment were not equal to those of the Japanese army, and the firepower gap was very large. There were still many problems in the counterattack against the Japanese army. These problems were the most fundamental reasons for the failure of the Chinese army's counterattack.
The 79th Regiment had penetrated deep into the rear of the Japanese army and completed a very beautiful penetration. There was no national army to contain the large Japanese army in the front. The 83rd Regiment withdrew from the battlefield prematurely, so that the Japanese army was able to free up its hands to deal with the 70th Regiment that penetrated deeply.
Nine regiments.
The counterattack against Luodian is destined to fail.
The moment the Luodian counterattack horn sounded, the battle for Qiaojiazhai also started. A company formed three columns to attack Qiaojiazhai. The Japanese troops hiding in Qiaojiazhai relied on houses and courtyards as bunkers to attack the attacking national troops.
The army launched violent shooting, and the explosions resounded like thunder across the wilderness, and the gunshots crackled like fried beans. The bullets intertwined in the night, collided with the walls, and made a weird ricocheting sound.
The mission of the second platoon soldiers is to attack the Japanese firepower points, and such a mission faces huge risks.
The Japanese firepower formed a crossfire and controlled the entire access road. Under the cover of the soldiers behind them, more than a dozen soldiers from the second platoon and the third squad tied the grenades into a bundle with ropes, held them in their arms, and fired from the buildings on both sides.
Rushing out, holding grenades and rushing towards the Japanese fire bunker, a dozen figures became hazy in the flickering firelight.
The Japanese army discovered the National Army soldiers who rushed out of the street. The Japanese soldiers hiding in the building shouted and controlled the light machine guns to shoot at the charging National Army soldiers. A string of bullets swept past, and three National Army soldiers lay on the ground.
Blood mist exploded on them.
The surviving national soldiers ran faster, and their bravery was reflected in them. They faced the enemy's hail of bullets and walked quickly through the broken streets. The bullet penetrated the body of a soldier. Affected by inertia, he fell heavily to the ground.
, a bundle of grenades was thrown far away.
"Aping!"
The shouts of the third squad leader came from behind. He rushed up and hid behind the wooden board, pulled Aping back, and tremblingly untied the blood-stained clothes on his chest. The bullet penetrated his stomach and chest, shattering his
It was obvious that A Ping could not survive due to his internal organs. Foamy blood kept coming out of his mouth. He grabbed the third squad leader with his hands.
"I...Gulu, Gulu."
The bullet pierced his lungs, and the trachea was blocked by blood. Aping wanted to speak, but he couldn't. He could only make a gurgling sound, like a drowned sound, and more blood came out of his mouth.
.
"Aping, Aping." The third squad leader shook Aping's body, and there was no sound. The third squad leader's expression became a bit painful. He looked up at the Japanese machine gun position, as if he was crazy.
Rush over.
"Stupid Chinaman!"
The Japanese machine gunner controlled the light machine gun and fired at the third squad leader with bursts of fire. The charging figure lay on the ground.
"The third shift is gone."
In the dark, narrow room, the second platoon leader looked at the battle ahead through the gap in the window. The third squadron only rushed a distance of thirty meters before being wiped out by the crossfire network formed by the Japanese light machine guns.
The entire battle lasted only more than ten minutes.
In one class, more than a dozen people were beaten to death by the Japanese.
"Let's go!" The first squad leader stepped forward and squatted on the ground, his eyes firm: "If we die, let the second squad go."
"good!"
Without much communication, the squad leader led a squad through the alley and came to the street. Using the cover of night, they rushed towards the machine gun bunker that was constantly spraying fire.
In the alley, Xia Yuan led the scholar, Zhao Shiguo, Zheng Dayong, Xiao Liu, and Lao Lei, stepping on the broken rubble and feeling forward.
Gunfire echoed around them, firelight flickered on the broken wall above their heads, and their figures in the dusk looked like ghosts.
"Where did we touch? Why do we feel we are getting further and further away from the battlefield?" Zhao Shiguo held the gun tightly in one hand and looked at the surrounding environment. The flickering firelight in the distance illuminated the broken wall above his head brightly.
Bullets came from far away.
"Silence!" Xia Yuan turned around and gestured, saying: "This place is far away from the battlefield, but it does not mean it is safe. The Japanese army also built a military bunker in front, but it doesn't look like there are many people there. Let's touch it first and see.
It depends."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Passing through the alley and coming to the broken streets, Xia Yuan used night vision to observe the situation of the Japanese troops in front: "If this Japanese army is eliminated, maybe we can
From here, the situation of Qiao’s house will open up.”
"What are we going to do?" The scholar held the gun and was ready for battle at any time.
"There are not many Japanese troops here. A few of us can wipe out the Japanese troops here." Xia Yuan observed and found that there was only one detachment of Japanese soldiers here. The location here is not good, and it is not a strategic location for attack.
, the Japanese defense here is very loose.
With only a dozen soldiers in a detachment, he could destroy the Japanese army by himself.
At this moment, they have arrived at the edge of Luodian. Crossing this street, walking outside is a muddy depression and an endless plain. The Chinese army will not choose to attack from here, and the Japanese army will not choose to defend here.
Xia Yuan observed it and discovered that this was an easier place to attack.
As for why we attack from this direction, the biggest reason is that it is too far away from Luodian Town. If we choose to attack from here, there is still some distance to Luodian Town. The Japanese troops who have reacted can completely deploy defenses along the way. If the gap is too large,
Down, the gain outweighs the loss.
The location of Qiaojiazhai is not good either, but it is also the edge of the Japanese defense line in Luodian. If they defeat it, at least they will occupy a corner of Luodian.
After thinking about it clearly, Xia Yuan led them to touch it.
A detachment of the Japanese army was relatively loose. They used a private house as a fortification and piled up the broken wall at the door with earth to form a crude bunker fortification.
Two Japanese soldiers leaned against the bunker with guns in hand, and misty smoke came out.
Little did they know, among the ruins of wooden houses beside them, several black figures were groping forward. Zhao Shiguo and Zheng Dayong were carrying two light machine guns, which were not suitable for attacking fortresses, but suitable for fire cover. The two stopped temporarily.
Come down, put the light machine gun on a wooden board, and aim at the houses in the distance.
The remaining four continued on.
When he was more than 20 meters away from the house, Xia Yuan waved his hand to stop and took out the grenade from his arms. In the eyes of the scholar, Xiaoliu and Lao Lei, the grenade floated out from the ruins and landed on the man smoking a cigarette.
There was a loud bang above the heads of the Japanese soldiers, and grenades exploded above their heads.
"superior!"
Seeing the two Japanese soldiers lying on the ground, Xia Yuan gave an order, and the scholar, Xiao Liu, and Lao Lei rushed up quickly with guns in hand. The explosion woke up the Japanese soldiers in the house, and the Japanese soldiers who were not fully clothed came out to check.
Condition.
Lao Lei had quick eyes and quick hands. He held the gun and pulled the trigger. The bullet came out with a whoosh, knocking a Japanese soldier who rushed out to the ground.
Xiao Liu lay down behind the bunker built by the Japanese and shot into the open room.
The scholar's movements were a little clumsy, and he felt a little out of his depth. Even his reaction speed and adaptability were not as fast as those of Lao Lei and Xiao Liu.
"Get down!" Upon seeing this, Lao Lei rushed forward and pushed the scholar to the ground. The Japanese soldiers squatting at the door kept shooting at several people, and the bullets whizzed over their heads.
The beating left the two of them in shock.
Lao Lei saw that the scholar was a new recruit, fumbled for the grenade in the scholar's arms, and was stunned, "Why are you holding this thing when you go to the battlefield?"
"The platoon leader didn't let me throw it away." The scholar loaded the grenade in his arms and said, "This thing is a treasure and cannot be thrown away."
Only then did Lao Lei remember the platoon leader. He turned his head and looked in the direction of Xia Yuan, but there was no trace of him. Xiao Liu shouted from behind him again: "Uncle Lei, the Japanese have rushed out, and I can't suppress them."
Lao Lei suddenly turned around and discovered with vigilance that the Japanese soldiers in the house had already rushed out. He immediately raised his gun and counterattacked. The Japanese soldiers counterattacked even more fiercely. A combat group of three people formed a triangle and shot at them, hitting the tops of their heads.
The wooden board made a banging sound, and sawdust flew everywhere.
"We can't stop their attack, where is the platoon leader!?" Lao Lei couldn't lift his head after being beaten. He squatted behind the bunker and kept groping around his body. He took out two grenades, pulled the cord and threw them out.
The firepower has weakened a bit.
"Dayong, Lao Zhao, if you don't shoot, we will be dead." The scholar held the rifle and regretted in his heart. He should have stayed behind and set up the grenade to provide long-range firepower to Lao Lei.
and Xiaoliu.
But when he was attacking, what he was thinking was that the platoon leader could wipe out all the Japanese Japs by himself, but he never expected that the platoon leader didn't follow him.
From behind, Zhao Shiguo set up a light machine gun and looked at Xia Yuan: "Why don't you give them fire support?"
Xia Yuan squinted and said, "The scholars need to sharpen their skills. They had enough time to throw grenades into the room before the Japanese troops rushed out. They did not do this and missed the best time to attack the Japanese soldiers."
Zhao Shiguo thought for a while and said: "I didn't even expect that they would panic as soon as the battle started."
Xia Yuan nodded, looked at the battle situation ahead, and signaled him to bring fire support to the front.
"Da Yong, support them." Zhao Shiguo almost became a machine gunner. In the continuous battle victories, their machine gun ammunition was greatly supplemented, and there was no shortage of machine gun ammunition.
Zhao Shiguo has experience in operating machine guns, but Zheng Dayong does not. Xia Yuan and Zhao Shiguo plan to train Zheng Dayong to become a machine gunner, so training on the battlefield is essential.
This is a test for them.
Although one detachment of Japanese troops has combat effectiveness, to Xia Yuan, the Japanese troops of one detachment and the two detachments of Japanese troops are the same. He himself has rich combat experience and is not afraid of the Japanese army at all.
The scholars, on the other hand, did not have too many fights with the Japanese. The Japanese troops in a detachment were completely within their control and were most suitable as a whetstone for them.
Unfortunately, the battle only lasted a few minutes and ended.
It's not that the Japs became weak and were wiped out by Scholars and others, but that under the Japanese offensive, Scholars and others had no room to fight back and were suppressed to death. They soon lost the initiative and turned to passive combat.
Even if Zheng Dayong provided long-range fire support, the moment the Japanese grenades were set up, Xia Yuan knew in his heart that the Japanese counterattack had begun. As a last resort, he had to take out a few grenades and use them to kill the enemy.
The Japanese devils were wiped out.
After cleaning the battlefield, Xia Yuan looked at the scholar and Lao Lei and took them to Qiao's house without saying anything.
The three scholars were like eggplants beaten by frost. The initial initiative was clearly in their hands, but they failed to grasp it properly. The Japanese simply broke through the defense in front of the door, rushed out, and even completed a counterattack.
If Xia Yuan hadn't taken action at the critical moment, they might have been killed by the Japanese.
"Platoon leader, it's my fault. I knew I wanted to suppress the gate so that the Japanese troops couldn't break out, but in the end, the Japanese soldiers still broke out." Lao Lei took the initiative to find Xia Yuan and admit his mistake.
It was obvious that Xia Yuan's sudden disappearance just now, as well as the fire support and several air blast mines at the critical moment, were all Xia Yuan's support for them.
Xia Yuan shook his head and said: "The three of you are still reluctant to deal with a Japanese detachment. The battle in Qiaojia Town has begun. Let us support them quickly."
