Chapter 269(1/2)
"Boom boom boom..."
"What's going on?"
A roar of artillery fire suddenly came from the right rear, which made Captain Jixiu on the front line feel a little puzzled. Why are the Chinese fighting against nothing?
Yoshihide looked back in the direction of the sound, and there were two small hills over there that blocked his view.
No! That direction seems to be...
Just when Yoshihide was panicked, a major hurriedly ran over to report the situation to him: "It's not good, Captain! The frontier command post was bombarded by the enemy!"
"Nani!?" Yoshihide asked hurriedly, "How are the team leader and the others?"
"The Chinese people's artillery fire was very fierce, and the entire command post was covered. The corps captain and others..." The master shook his head with difficulty. Although the words were not explained, it was self-evident.
The news was like a bolt from the blue that exploded in Yoshihide's ears. He felt dizzy and a layer of cold sweat came out involuntarily.
How did the Chinese do it? What should I do next? Do I continue to fight... At this moment, he was full of thoughts and began to feel relieved.
"Send someone to check the situation immediately. You can't fight anymore. Let the soldiers retreat first, hurry up!"
The shelling continued, and the Japanese frontier command post had turned into a sea of fire. Countless Japanese soldiers saw their great god Amaterasu in screams.
In order to cause greater damage, Krupp also replaced three of the 155 howitzers with incendiary bombs. A base of shelling lasted for 5 minutes, and there were no more living Japanese in the entire artillery covered area.
"Yaoma, have you seen it? This is called fire and the Japanese were killed by us if they couldn't even see anyone. Hehe, isn't it very good?" Long Weng said excitedly, hugging Yaoma's neck.
"Okay, okay, I know. Oh, don't tie my neck... Cough cough..." Yaoma hurriedly knocked off his hand, and the madman was excited and started to mess around.
The special operations were indeed effective. They reimbursed a corps without knowing it, but they did not lose any of them. This was something they dared not think about before.
Long Wenhua was full of energy and immediately found a communications soldier and ordered him: "Notify the regiment, uh...Notify the Chief of Staff, the target has been killed, and you can fight back."
...
At the same time, the battlefield that was originally fighting fiercely on the Nantianmen position has changed at this moment.
"I'm annoyed! Xiao Dongyang seems to have run away?"
The sound of gunfire around gradually stopped. Bula stuck his head slightly out and looked out. The Japanese on the front actually stopped attacking and began to retreat.
"I saw it! I've all been dodged. After the infantry ran and bombed, the Japanese probably were going to fire again."
Meng Fanli shouted loudly, his inertial thinking made him think that the Japanese's retreat this time the attack would definitely be another shelling.
But the experienced Busai saw the difference: "Is there something wrong with the turtle lid?"
Meng frowned, and at this moment he also saw some clues.
Although the Japanese army retreated, it was different from the previous retreat in an orderly manner. At this time, the Japanese seemed to be fleeing in a hurry, and the artillery fire cover that should have come did not appear, as if the rear did not know that their troops were retreating.
And there was a team behind the highway running forward, colliding with the retreating troops with a confused look on their faces.
“どうしたの?”
"Baga! What are you doing?"
"Why retreat? The captain of the wing asked us to assist you in the attack!"
Because the order they received 20 minutes ago was to support the front line, but no one told them that they had already started to retreat?
At this moment, there was a riot in the Japanese camp. Most soldiers and officers did not know what had happened, and were unable to contact the corps leader, but just followed the orders of their respective commanders.
"Captain, the latest telegram!"
A communication soldier hurriedly ran over, Meng Fanle took it and took a look. The content of the telegram made him widen his eyes.
"I'm annoyed, I'm going to be Mo Zi, right?"
"Swish swish..."
Before Bula next to him finished speaking, the artillery fire suddenly arrived in the rear, and the shells hit the chaotic formation of the Japanese army like a meteor shower.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
Meng Fan threw away the telegram and shouted loudly: "Everyone in a group obeys the order! Launch an attack on the Japanese!"
Explosions came one after another, and the Japanese on the front line suffered a devastating blow. Captain Yoshihide asked the troops to retreat, but another brigade wanted to continue the attack, which further exacerbated their chaos and the entire command system was almost paralyzed.
"Roll, you can rush to Yang Liulang, you can't drink rice soup!"
"kill!"
The first main force launched a charge like a tiger going down the mountain, rushing hard with the Japanese ass, and the shells began to delay backwards as if they had eyes, continuing to create chaos for the Japanese army.
At the same time, the guard battalion, which had long been ambushing in the jungle across the Jiqi Slope, also joined the battlefield from the side. Chen Jize followed closely behind with the Third Regiment, and the three parties worked together to crush the Japanese.
"Stop the Chinese, stop them!"
"Hao Ku! The captain ordered us to withdraw quickly!"
"Nani?"
...
The Japanese army's morale was greatly reduced. Seeing that the enemy was surrounded, there was no way. Some Japanese still wanted to continue fighting, but more were retreating. Their orders were not unified, and their defeat was a foregone conclusion.
The artillery seven or eight kilometers away was even more unaware of it. He sent several inquiries to the corps captain but did not respond. They didn't know whether to fire the artillery at this moment. When they learned that the front line had begun to retreat, it was already time.
It's too late.
"Go and follow them and take a look!"
Seeing that the Japanese army began to collapse, Long Weng had to sit and wait for death, and was ready to follow the Japanese to see if there was any opportunity to take advantage of.
I have to say that the 114th Regiment is really considered an elite Japanese army. If it were replaced by other troops, it would have been gone in this situation. However, after a brief panic, most of the people gathered again under the command of a captain.
Come together.
With unified command, they showed their extremely high military qualities and began to establish defense lines based on artillery positions to block the pursuit of Chinese soldiers.
"Shock!"
"Da da da da da da da...!"
"Puff...ah!"
"Stop, hide!"
Because the troops rushed too fast and failed to coordinate well, the soldiers were able to pull each other from the front, and the soldiers at the front suffered a great loss due to the Japanese.
Countless warriors were knocked down by dense bullets, and a ball of charge was also curbed. The Japanese took the opportunity to transfer their artillery and supplies.
"Ha suppresses the ku! The logistics team transports the artillery away, and the others go to the front to block the enemy. The warriors of the Great Japanese Empire have no cowards!"
A Nakasa shouted at the top of his lungs. As long as there were soldiers who took the lead, they had a backbone. Many Japanese soldiers fled into the forest also ran out again and began to fight back under the leadership of the officers.
The Japanese army's camp was relatively long because they had a lot of supplies, so there were countless cannon shells alone. All of this could not be taken away by the Chinese. Even if they fought to the death, they would stop the enemy.
But as more and more soldiers of the Third Division arrived, the Japanese's temporary defense lines could not be defended. In desperation, Nakasa began to command the troops to fight and retreat.
The forest near the highway was full of battles, with gunfire and shouts one after another, and the bodies of soldiers who died in battle were everywhere, and the entire battlefield seemed to be in chaos.
...
At this time... on the road westward, more than 20 trucks and hundreds of mules and horses were pulling artillery and trucks of ammunition and drug supplies to evacuate. Their marching speed was not fast, especially in this winding and rugged
On the Burma Highway.
The winding road is like a entrenched snake, surrounded by peaks and mountains, and the road is winding and winding, even cars cannot drive too fast.
Long Weng led the Falcon Squad to pass through the mountains quickly. The group was like a group of flexible monkeys, and the difficult mountain road could not stop them at all.
You should know that this group of people carry their equipment on their backs and armed 30 kilometers of off-road in the depths of Henglan Mountain every day. The long-term training has already tempered them to extremely firmness. Such a rushing marching is no problem at all.
The Yunnan-Burma Highway to the west of Nujiang River is very difficult to walk, so Long Weng is not worried that the Japanese will run far away. It should be no problem to use their feet to take a shortcut to get ahead.
After climbing over the last hill, the road at the foot of the mountain suddenly appeared in front of them, and they had already moved to the front of the Japanese logistics team.
Gunshots came several kilometers away, and the blocking battle behind them was still fierce, but the Japanese understood that they had lost this time, so they could only find a way to withdraw from the battle as soon as possible and immediately stopped the loss.
The dozens of artillery artillery of the entire artillery corps are the top priority and must not fall into the hands of the Chinese. Therefore, even though they have left the battlefield, the artillery corps captain still dared not relax his vigilance and hurriedly urged the soldiers to speed up.
"You need to go, take a group to bury landmines and explosives on the highway. Don't let the Japanese see it at a glance. Do you understand?"
"I know!" Yaoma agreed and took the people down the mountain and ran towards the road.
Long Weng raised his telescope and watched. A kilometer away, he could vaguely see the team of people slowly sailing towards them.
"Dong Dao, you take the second group to the hillsides on both sides to arrange sniper points."
Long Weng had a serious expression and pointed to the front and ordered in a deep voice: "Remember, our mission is not to kill the Japanese army, but to find ways to intercept them here and delay time waiting for the brothers in the rear to come."
"I understand!" Dong Dao nodded heavily.
There were at least one thousand people in that artillery corps. Long Weng would not be stupid enough to hit the stone with eggs. Moreover, the shooting distance of the artillery regiment was already beyond the artillery regiment and could no longer rely on radio to summon artillery fire to strike.
However, he had reported his position to Liao Mingyu, believing that the latter could make arrangements as soon as possible, and he just needed to find a way to hold back the Japanese army.
...
