Liuhe County, headquarters of the Japanese Far Eastern Army.
Asaburo Kobayashi walked into the war room dejectedly and reported to Yamashita Fengwen: "Your Excellency, Commander, we just received a report from the Aviation Corps that their attack planes discovered a new regiment's wooden platoon group. Unfortunately, there was no one on the wooden platoon.
No officers and soldiers of the new regiment can be seen anymore, and the new regiment has landed ahead of schedule."
"Baga!" Yamashita Fengwen said through gritted teeth, "This Xu Rui is really cunning!"
"Hai!" Asaburo Kobayashi said one after another, "This Xu Rui is indeed too cunning. He always seems to be able to predict the actions of the imperial army in advance and make targeted arrangements in advance."
Yamashita Fengwen groaned and asked, "Where is the 180th Infantry Regiment?"
Kobayashi Asaburo paused and said: "I have just inquired, the 180th Infantry Regiment has entered Hunchun County, and is less than 20 miles away from Wujiashan Fortress!"
"Yo Xi!" Yamashita Fengwen nodded, "So, we still have a chance."
"Hai!" Asaburo Kobayashi paused heavily and said with a ferocious face, "The Wujiashan Fortress must be empty at the moment. As long as the 180th Infantry Regiment can arrive in time, it will be able to easily recapture the fortress. As long as it is recaptured
Even if Xu Rui's new regiment moves to the Wujiashan Fortress and moves to Hunchun County, it will still be untenable!"
"Yo Xi!" Yamashita Fengwen nodded happily.
…
Jingxin Town.
There is a mountain ten miles north from Jingxin Town, called three hills. The tallest one in the middle is called North Triangle Mountain, the hill on the east is called Little Triangle Mountain, and the hill on the west is called West Triangle Mountain. It is the only dirt road leading to Wujiashan Fortress.
Just pass through the middle of these three mountains.
At this time, Huang Shouxin had already led the first company and second company of the third battalion to ambush on the mountains on both sides of the road.
After Huang Shouxin took over the command of Wujiashan Fortress, he immediately assessed the security situation of the entire fortress and found that the threats facing Wujiashan Fortress mainly came from two directions, one was Hunchun County to the north of the fortress, and the other was
Rajin City, south of the fortress, poses the greatest threat.
So Huang Shouxin selected a dozen Korean soldiers from the officers and soldiers of the third battalion, dressed up as mountain people, and sneaked into Luojin and nearby villages to conduct reconnaissance. Originally, it was just to be prepared, but in the end, it really worked. The scouts sent out were very good.
An important piece of information was soon sent back. About a regiment of Japanese soldiers were rushing towards Wujiashan.
The Third Battalion has a solid fortress as a barrier and does not care about a mere Japanese infantry regiment. Even if the Japanese attack a division, Huang Shouxin is confident in holding the fortress. But the problem is that if he only relies on the fortress to hold on, the initiative will be completely lost.
It is in the hands of the Japs. The Japs can fight when they want, retreat when they want, and they can come and go freely.
Of course, Huang Shouxin couldn't accept this situation. If the Japanese came with a division, then Huang Shouxin wouldn't have any other ideas and would just hold on to the fortress. But now, the Japanese came with an infantry regiment.
, Huang Shouxin immediately came up with another idea: Why not simply eat the Japanese infantry regiment?
Because of this, Huang Shouxin decided to go ten miles forward to ambush the Japanese.
Of course, Huang Shouxin did not go out in full force, but left the Ninth Company to guard the fortress. He only brought the Seventh Company and the Eighth Company to Triangle Mountain to fight the ambush.
Although they only had two companies of troops at their disposal, they only had more than 400 men at full strength. In contrast, the Japanese who were rushing toward the Wujiashan Fortress had an infantry regiment. Even if it was not a full infantry regiment,
Because the Japs abandoned their baggage troops in order to speed up the march, but even so, the Japs still had more than 2,000 troops!
Huang Shouxin was brave enough to ambush more than 2,000 Japs with more than 400 people.
I have to admit that all the commanders who came out of the youth training camp have similar temperaments to Xu Rui, and they are extremely bold!
However, Huang Shouxin was not reckless in doing this, because before he decided to go out for an ambush, he had already conducted a careful war game on the sand table. The results of the deduction showed that as long as the Japanese entered the ambush without knowing it, the Third Battalion would be defeated.
There is no doubt about victory, and there is a high probability that the invading Japanese can be wiped out!
Although there were no problems with the deduction results, Huang Shouxin was still a little nervous.
No matter what, this is Huang Shouxin's first time to carry out a combat mission independently. To say that he is not nervous or worried is definitely a lie. In fact, Huang Shouxin is so nervous that he can't breathe.
So I could only cover up my nervousness by smoking one cigarette after another.
From the time the ambush was set up to now, in just two hours, Huang Shouxin's feet were already littered with cigarette butts.
After smoking one cigarette, Huang Shouxin subconsciously took out the large front door cigarette box from his pocket, but when he dug it out, he found that it was empty. The second box of cigarettes was finished again!
Frowning, Huang Shouxin was about to ask the guard to get another cigarette when footsteps suddenly came from in front of him.
When I looked up anxiously, I saw a correspondent running over and shouting from a distance: "The battalion commander is coming, the battalion commander is coming, coming here, coming here..."
"Come here!" Huang Shouxin said angrily, "Why don't I just sit here all the time?"
"Uh, no." At this moment, the correspondent had already rushed to Huang Shouxin and gasped, "Batalion Commander, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about the Japanese coming, the Japanese are coming!"
"The Japs are coming?" Huang Shouxin's expression suddenly tightened upon hearing this.
"Yes, here they come!" The correspondent nodded heavily, "They are all here, at least two thousand of them!"
"We're here!" Huang Shouxin smiled ferociously to cover up the nervousness in his heart, and then said, "Send my order, all companies and platoons, prepare to fight!"
As soon as he finished speaking, another correspondent hurried back from the front and reported breathlessly: "Batalion Commander, the little devil suddenly stopped and stopped moving forward."
"What did you say? The little devil suddenly stopped and stopped moving forward?" Huang Shouxin's heart skipped a beat when he heard this. Did the little devil see through it?
…
On the dirt road leading to Wujiashan Fortress from Luojin City, the Japanese infantrymen of the 180th Infantry Regiment were lining up in four columns and marching forward in a mighty manner.
While walking, Yamazaki Isamu suddenly raised his hand and shouted: "Stop!"
As the deputy commander of the 180th Infantry Regiment, Yamazaki Isamu felt that the terrain ahead was too steep, so he instinctively ordered the troops to stop advancing.
But not long after the troops stopped, the commander of the 180th Regiment, Yagyu Mei, caught up on horseback.
Before the Far East Battle, all the vehicles of the Kwantung Army and even the Japanese troops stationed in Korea were requisitioned to the Far East Front Army. At this time, the vehicles requisitioned by the Far East Front Army had not been returned, so the commander of the 180th Regiment, Yagyu Mi.
He can ride a horse, but the squadron leader below doesn't even have to ride a horse, he can only walk.
"Yamazaki-kun, why don't you move forward?" Yagyumi asked in a deep voice.
Yamazaki Isamu pointed at the Triangle Mountain in front of him and said: "Captain, the terrain ahead is too steep. If you go too deep into the ground rashly, you will easily be ambushed..."
"Baga!" Before Yamazaki Isamu could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Yagyu Mei, "What kind of ambush? The main force of the new regiment has just passed the Tumen County seat at this time. It is still nearly a hundred miles away from here. How can they still fly?
Come here to ambush us? What’s more, what did the Commander say? Let us get to Wujiashan as soon as possible at all costs!"
"Hai!" Isamu Yamazaki nodded loudly, then waved his hand and shouted, "Open the way!"
Yamazaki Isamu gave an order, and the Japanese infantry that had stopped moved forward again. After a while, the forward team had entered the triangular mountain.
…
At this time, Huang Shouxin had already rushed to the forward observation post in person.
Seeing the Japanese infantry that had stopped moving forward again, Huang Shouxin's hanging heart finally fell to the ground. Fortunately, it seems that the Japanese did not find an ambush in the triangular mountain! Huang Shouxin did not return to his command at that moment.
Instead, he stayed directly at the forward observation post on the front line. After the Japanese completely entered the ambush circle, he personally ordered the fire!
Huang Shouxin gave an order, and more than 400 officers and soldiers from the first and second companies took advantage of the cover of the mountains to quickly enter the position, and then opened up all kinds of firepower, raining bullets on the heads of the Japanese marching on the road.
For this ambush, Huang Shouxin used a total of six Deshka large-caliber heavy machine guns from the Third Battalion, plus thirty Type 92 heavy machine guns from the Wujiashan Fortress, for a total of thirty-six
Heavy machine guns were deployed on three hilltops, forming a firepower network with no blind spots, covering the main force of the 180th Infantry Regiment.
That's right, what Huang Shouxin arranged in Triangle Mountain was a large inverted triangle ambush formation.
In ambush battles, the inverted triangle ambush formation has proven its power time and time again, and this time is no exception.
The 180th Japanese Infantry Regiment was very unlucky. Except for the forward team responsible for opening the way and the rear guard team, the other thirty-odd infantry teams were all in the middle of the three hills of the triangular mountain, facing indiscriminate attacks from three directions.
With the heavy machine gun fire in the blind spot, the Japanese couldn't find a hiding spot and fell into a pool of blood one after another.
In less than a quarter of an hour, nearly two thousand Japanese soldiers who stepped into the ambush circle, including the two captains Yamazaki Isamu and Yagyu Mei, were basically thrown to the ground. They didn't have time to enter the ambush circle.
Two Japanese infantry teams that had escaped from the ambush tried their best to rescue them, but to no avail.
After annihilating the main force of the 180th Infantry Regiment, Huang Shouxin personally blew the charge horn. The officers and soldiers of the First and Second Companies immediately rushed down the Triangular Mountain like tigers descending the mountain, following the two Japanese squads who came back for reinforcements.
Hand-to-hand combat began. After about a quarter of an hour of hand-to-hand combat, the 180th Infantry Regiment that attacked was completely wiped out!
More than two thousand Japanese soldiers, not a single one slipped through the net!
