Then in the process of mobilizing the main force to enrich the local military region, Zhong Sheng's second regiment was transferred to the first division, and he was promoted to the commander of the first division.

Now one district governs three local regiments.

Yezhugou belongs to the defense area of ​​the 1st regiment of the first division.

At this time, Zhong Sheng personally led the 1st Regiment of the [-]st Division to station at the Yezhugou Fortress, preparing to catch the devils by surprise, and by the way, won a good start for this anti-mopping up.

In Wang Ye's words, this is called the first-hand bonus.

Because the devils don't know their defense deployment, they are easy to get tricked.

So for the first battle, we must maximize the results as much as possible.

The guard Xiao Zhang said again: "The devils have filled up an anti-tank trench and dragged the first anti-tank cone to the side of the road. Now they are filling up the second anti-tank trench."

Zhong Sheng asked: "Are you saying that the devil's vanguard has gone up the mountain?"

"Commander, that's not true." Xiao Zhang shook his head and said, "The devil didn't send sharp soldiers up the mountain."

"Then ignore them. The devils like to fill up the anti-tank trenches, so let them fill them up. And the anti-tank cones, if they like to drag them, just drag them. At worst, we will drag them to the middle of the loop." Zhong Sheng laughed. He added, "I still have some time, I have to smoke another pipe quickly, or I won't have time when the fight starts."

While talking, Zhong Sheng took out the dry pipe and smoked the old cigarette.

The guard Xiao Zhang and the soldiers next to him were very impressed when they saw it.

Xin said that he really deserved to be the commander, even the devils came to him, and he was still smoking in the presence of an old god.

The guard Xiao Zhang was not as calm as Zhong Sheng. Instead, he was lying behind the observation hole of the bunker, and kept reporting to Zhong Sheng the latest movements of the devils at the foot of the mountain.

"Commander, the devils are starting to clear the second anti-tank trench."

"Commander, the second anti-tank trench has been filled by the devils."

"Commander, the Devils are starting to use cars to tow the second anti-tank cone."

"Commander, the Devil's tank has reached the third anti-tank cone."

"Commander, the Devil infantry is starting to fill up the third anti-tank trench."

"Commander, there are a lot of trucks coming outside the wild boar ditch, there must be more than 100."

"Commander, a lot of devils got out of the car, there must be at least a thousand of them!"

"Commander, the Devils have sent sharp soldiers up the mountain, and a group of sharp soldiers has already gone up the fifth slope opposite!"

Hearing this, Zhong Sheng, who was lying down and smoking, turned over and sat up immediately, knocked the tobacco pot on the bottom of his feet, inserted the dry tobacco pipe into his waist, and approached another lookout hole.

Through the lookout hole, it can be clearly seen that the devil's vanguard team has gone up the opposite hillside, and their side is blocked by the mountain, so they can't see clearly, but based on experience, Zhong Sheng can guess that the devil is also They must have sent sharp soldiers to this side of the hillside, the devils could never just scout one side.

At this moment, the phone in the dark room behind suddenly rang.

Immediately a telephone soldier ran out and reported: "Commander, the lookout post on the top of the mountain reported that the devil's vanguard group was also found on the northern hillside outside the ditch."

Yezhugou is a canyon terrain, running north-south.

The hillsides inside the ditch are the east slope and the west slope, while the north slope is outside the ditch.

It seems that the devils did not let go of the reconnaissance of the North Slope, and also sent sharp soldiers up.

"I see." Zhong Sheng said with a wave of his hand, "Order the observation post on the top of the mountain to continue to observe."

"Yes." The telephone soldier agreed, and ran back to convey the order to the lookout post on the top of the mountain.

"It's almost time." Zhong Sheng looked at the devil infantry continuously driving into the canyon through the lookout hole, and then said to the guard Xiao Zhang, "Where's the flare gun? Give it to me."

Xiao Zhang quickly handed over the flare gun.

……

Immediately after the 1st Search Wing, the 1st Infantry Wing has also arrived outside the wild boar ditch.

The leader of the 1st Regiment, Yang Tian Huji, was much more cautious than Imada Yoshio. As soon as he arrived at Yezhu Ditch, he immediately sent multiple groups of pioneers to the hillside on the north side of the ditch and the hillsides on the east and west sides of the ditch.

Imada Yoshio hurriedly drove his Type [-] light tank back outside the valley.

"Yangtian-kun, don't be so troublesome." Imada Yoshio leaned out from the turret and said to Yangtian Huji who just got off the passenger seat of a truck, "There are no ambushes on the hillsides on both sides."

Yang Tianhu said in a deep voice: "Mr. Imada, did your search team go up to the mountain for reconnaissance?"

"Not really." Imada Yoshio shook his head and said again, "But the mountains here are basically bare earth hills, and you can see clearly at a glance whether there are ambushes on the mountains, and we have been busy in the canyon for a long time. If there were really an ambush from the Eighth Route Army on the mountain, a fight would have started long ago."

"Hey, I don't think so." Yang Tianhu said with a wave of his hand.

"I've heard people say that the [-]th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army is extremely cunning,"

"It's also very good at camouflage, so maybe there are bunkers and trenches all over the mountain. It's just that the Eighth Route Army camouflaged all the fortifications, so it's hard to find."

"As for why he didn't shoot, maybe it was to catch a big fish."

After a pause, he said, "So just to be on the safe side, it's better to send sharp soldiers up the mountain to scout."

"Okay." Imada Yoshio said noncommittally, "Since Yangtian-kun is not afraid of the hard work of the imperial soldiers of the 1st Infantry Regiment, then just send sharp soldiers to the mountain."

Speaking of this, the two old devils stopped communicating.

Then he turned around and looked back at the wild boar ditch in front of him at the same time.

But I saw that the vehicle squadron and horse squadron of the 1st Search Wing had already started the fourth anti-tank trench and anti-tank cone clearance operations. In addition, the 1st Infantry Wing also sent two squadrons to participate in the operation.

Two more squadrons were added, and the number of devils participating in the clearance increased to more than 700, which was much faster.

The two old devils turned their gazes to the dozen or so pioneer groups that were climbing up the mountain, and saw that the pioneer groups on the north slope had already reached halfway up the mountain, and the pioneer groups on both sides of the canyon had also reached a quarter of the way up. .

But no matter whether it was the several pioneer groups on the north slope outside the valley, or the pioneer groups on both sides of the valley, nothing was found.

Yang Tianhu couldn't help but said to Imada Yoshio: "Imada-kun, it seems that you are right, there is really no..."

However, before the words fell, there was a sudden scream of "咻" from the hillside in front of them. The two old devils looked forward anxiously, and saw a red signal flare rising from the hillside on the right side of the canyon.

"What!" Yang Tian Huji and Imada Yoshio's hearts sank at the same time.

Signal flare?This is not a good sign, is this a signal to do something?

Could it be that the Eighth Route Army's ambushes were still hidden on both sides of the canyon, but because they hid too well, they were not discovered by their leading soldiers?

Just when the two old devils were in doubt, a sudden change occurred!

But I saw that hundreds of machine gun fire points suddenly appeared on the hillsides on the left and right sides of the canyon!

On the hillside that was bare and empty just now, where not even a single weed could be found, suddenly hundreds of dark shooting holes were poked out, and hundreds of dazzling tongues of flame shot out from the shooting holes.

Hundreds of tongues of fire poured down from the hillsides on both sides, forming a cross-fire network in an instant, enveloping more than 700 devil infantry who were working to clear obstacles below.

In an instant, hundreds of devils were shot and fell to the ground.

Many devils fell directly into the three-meter-deep anti-tank trench.

"Baga!" The facial muscles of the two old devils twitched violently.

But fortunately, those who entered the canyon were indeed the elite of the 1st Division, and they responded extremely quickly.

After paying the first wave of casualties, most of the remaining devils reacted and hid behind the tanks parked on both sides of the canyon as quickly as possible.

Some devils panicked and jumped into the anti-tank trenches on their own initiative.

The 1 Type 11 light tanks of the first search team were close to the foot of the mountains on both sides, forming a dead angle for shooting. The firepower of the Eighth Route Army on the hillside on this side could not be reached, and the firepower of the Eighth Route Army on the opposite hillside was blocked by the tanks, so The devils hiding between the tank and the foot of the mountain are safe.

Seeing this, the two old devils breathed a sigh of relief.

It's not bad, with the tanks of the 1st search party providing cover, otherwise it will be troublesome.

The 1st Search Wing really deserves to be the elite of the 1st Division. When it was attacked suddenly, it not only responded quickly and correctly, but even tried to launch a counterattack in the first place.

I saw 1 Type 11 light tanks of the 11st Search Wing slowly turning their turrets, 11 front-firing machine guns fired violently, and 37 [-]mm main guns also slowly raised their firing angles, preparing to clear the machine guns on the hillsides on both sides firepower.

"Yoxi!" Seeing this, Yang Tian Huji and Imada Yoshio let out a sigh of relief, it seemed that there was no problem.

Although the Eighth Route Army was well hidden, the 1st Search Wing and the other two infantry squadrons that assisted in the clearance were caught off guard, but fortunately there was a tank squadron, so the problem was not big.

However, at this juncture, the mutation occurred again.

I saw more than a dozen dazzling red lights suddenly emanating from the ravines on both sides of the canyon.

Immediately there was a series of "boom, boom, boom" explosions. When the two old devils looked anxiously, they saw that the 11 Type [-] light tanks that were trying to fight back just now had been blown up one after another.

"Battle defense gun!" Imada Yoshio shouted in surprise.

"It doesn't look like it." Yang Tian Huji said with a dark face, "It looks like an infantry artillery!"

Pausing for a while, Yang Tian Huji said again: "The 100nd infantry artillery is aimed directly within [-] meters. Even if it is just using ordinary explosive grenades, it is enough to penetrate the frontal armor of the tank!"

The armor of the Type [-] light tank is too thin.

In a blink of an eye, 11 of the 6 tanks have been blown up.

The devil infantry hiding behind the tank was also killed.

The remaining 5 tanks suddenly panicked, and no longer cared about countering the machine gun firepower on the opposite hillside, they turned to look for artillery firepower that could threaten their own safety.

It is a pity that the artillery firepower of the Eighth Route Army is in the dark, while the Devils tanks are in the light.

Before the Devil Tank could find the firing point of the Eighth Route Army's artillery, the Eighth Route Army's artillery opened fire again. With another bang, the remaining five tanks in the canyon were also blown up one after another.

Eleven Type 11 light tanks were blown up and caught fire one after another.

The hundreds of devil infantry hiding behind suddenly lost their shelter.

Except for some of them who were killed by the bombing, the remaining devil infantry had no choice but to retreat at risk.

Unfortunately, there is no chance. Although these hundreds of devils only penetrated less than 100 meters into the canyon, under the cross coverage of hundreds of machine gun firepower points of the Eighth Route Army, this short distance of less than 100 meters became these hundreds of people. The gap that is difficult for devil infantry to cross is life on the outside and death on the inside!

These hundreds of devils are unfortunately on the inside of this gap.

Intensive machine gun fire poured down, and hundreds of devils who had nowhere to hide fell to the ground one after another.

In less than 5 minutes, there was no longer a devil infantry standing in the canyon.

The Eighth Route Army, which was still firing violently just now, also ceased fire one after another, and the entire canyon quickly fell silent.

But soon, there was a series of booming explosions on the hillside on the north side of the valley. Yang Tian Huji and Imada Yoshio looked up anxiously, and saw several pioneers who had already climbed up the mountainside from the north hillside. was also attacked.

The Eighth Route Army attacking the vanguard did not know where to hide, but just condescendingly threw grenades down.

Under the attack of the grenade, more than half of the leading soldiers were killed or injured, and the remaining leading soldiers quickly withdrew.

"Yangtian-kun." Imada Yoshio felt his throat a little dry, and said shyly, "I'm afraid there may be trouble now."

"Yeah, these damn Tuba Roads are really cunning." Yang Tian Huji said with a dark face, "They didn't build even one firepower point on the north slope in front of the canyon, but built all the firepower points in the canyon , Arranged as side firepower, and even built a large number of artillery firepower points!"

Imada Yoshio went on to say: "In this way, not only can the entire canyon passage be effectively blocked, but it can also evade the artillery fire countermeasures of the imperial army. It is really too cunning!"

After a pause, Imada Yoshio went on to say: "If you want to destroy the side firepower of the Eighth Route Army, the imperial army can only attack from the north slope of the front. In this way, the imperial army's tanks, field artillery and even heavy artillery It’s all just a decoration! The imperial army can only rely on infantry to attack the bunkers of the Eighth Route Army, which is really troublesome.”

"There is no other way but to attack by force. The passage must be cleared before the main force of the division arrives."

Yang Tianhu sighed, and then shouted again: "Order, the 1st Infantry Battalion immediately dispatch two infantry squadrons to attack from the north slopes on both sides!"

"Seize the main peaks on the left and right sides of the canyon first."

"Then condescendingly clear the firepower points of the Eighth Route Army one by one."

"Hai!" A messenger paused heavily, and then rushed away.

After a while, about 300 devil infantry immediately separated from the brigade of the 1st Infantry Regiment, divided into two groups, and launched an upward attack on the commanding heights on both sides of Yezhugou.

At the same time, the artillery brigade of the wing headquarters and the artillery squadrons of the three brigade headquarters set up their guns, and 20 [-] infantry guns pointed their dark muzzles at the north slope.

The next moment, 20 infantry guns opened fire one after another.

Although the Eighth Route Army was not found, according to the infantry attack process, a few shots had to be fired.

Accompanied by continuous explosions, the northern hillside of Yezhugou was immediately blown up with smoke and dust.

After two rounds, the artillery of the 1st Infantry Regiment stopped shelling. Almost at the same time, the two infantry squadrons of the 1st Infantry Battalion also advanced to the edge of the impact point.

The tactical quality of the 1st Division is really good.

The shelling of the artillery and the advancement of the infantry are almost seamless.

Almost as soon as the shelling stopped, the infantry rushed into the dense smoke and dust.

Then in the smoke and dust, more than 300 devil infantry divided into two groups and climbed up the slope.

Yang Tian Huji and Imada Yoshio's hearts immediately hung up, worrying that the attacking troops would be suddenly attacked by the Eighth Route Army during the upward attack, but what they never expected was that until the two The squadron went up to the top of the mountain and successfully seized the commanding heights without encountering any resistance.

The two squadrons easily captured the two main peaks on both sides of the wild boar ditch almost effortlessly.

You don't need binoculars at all, just with the naked eye, you can see that the general flag of the devil infantry has been planted on the top of the mountain, and standing on it is waving a rifle and cheering loudly.
