From the start of the attack to the present, a full two hours have passed, but neither Li Yunlong's team nor Ding Wei's three teams have succeeded.

It didn't even break into the core area of ​​the devil's camp.

Two detachments and six regiments have been circling around the periphery.

The distance of the advance is not even 500 meters, the progress is too slow!

"Damn it!" the brigade commander said bitterly, "What the hell is Li Yunlong doing?"

"Isn't he good at fighting? Isn't he good at charging? Why can't he charge at a critical moment?"

At this time, Wang Ye had also seen some clues, and said in a deep voice: "Brigade Commander, from the current point of view, we have underestimated the devils. The devils of the 28th Division have not only built more solid fortifications than expected, but also their combat effectiveness. It is obviously stronger than the 69th Division, and even stronger than the 2nd Guards Division."

"So what?" The brigade commander snorted, "Even the heavenly soldiers and generals will eat it down!"

There is no turning back when the bow is opened. The battle has been fought to this point, and there is no retreat at all.

If the 28th Division cannot be eaten this time, there will be no way to fight the subsequent battles.

The second thing is whether to lose face or not. The key is that if the base area is not protected, the more than 100 million fathers and fellow villagers may not be able to protect it either.

Wang Yedang even said: "Brigade Commander, judging from the situation, although the 28th Division blocked the onslaught of the first and third divisions, it is estimated that its strength is sufficient. At this time, if one or two more regiments are invested A sudden attack should be able to break the game, why not lead a regiment of the second team to attack from the west."

The brigade commander was a little hesitant, because the second detachment was a reserve team.

The so-called reserve team is reserved for saving lives at critical moments.

Or it is at the last moment of the battle, to expand the results of the battle.

But now it is neither the time to save lives nor the last moment of the battle.

After hesitating for a moment, the brigade commander still shook his head and said: "No, the reserve team can't move lightly!"

Speaking of this meal, the brigade commander said again: "By the way, where is Li Sigen's tank company? Why hasn't it arrived yet? Didn't he say that it will arrive in two hours?"

"I also..."

Wang Ye hadn't had time to utter the second half of his sentence, and there was a sudden change.

I only heard the roar of engines suddenly coming from the north of the 28th Division camp, that is, from the direction of Shazhukou.

The brigade commander and Wang Ye hurriedly turned their heads to look north, and saw more than a dozen tanks and armored vehicles lined up in an arrow formation, rumbling out of the slaughterhouse.

Behind these tanks and armored vehicles, followed by four or five hundred infantry.

"It's the tank company!" Wang Ye said happily, "Brigadier, the four tank companies have arrived!"

"This guy really knows how to choose the time. Does he want to be the protagonist or what?" The brigade commander laughed and cursed and said, "But it's really the time to come. This is enough for the 28th Division."

……

Almost at the same time, Ishiguro Sadazo also discovered the tank company.

"Baga Yalu!" Ishiguro Zhenzang's facial muscles twitched violently immediately.

The fact that the Eighth Route Army had a chariot company was enough to surprise Shi Hei Zhenzang, and this chariot company suddenly came out of the slaughterhouse at this time, which caught Shi Hei Zhenzang even more by surprise.

Because at this time, the strength of the 3rd Infantry Regiment and the 30th Infantry Regiment has been exhausted, and they are fighting fiercely with the troops of the [-]th Brigade to the east and south of the camp.

The 28th Search Party and Tank Group have also been called up.

At this time, Shi Hei Zhenzang simply couldn't spare any troops to meet the tank troops of the Eighth Route Army.

Do you count on the supply soldiers of the supply wing?Or are you counting on the medics in the field hospital?Or the guards of the division headquarters?

The only thing I can count on is the 36th Infantry Regiment, but at this time, the 36th Infantry Regiment and the 36th Engineer Regiment are still on the commanding heights on both sides of Killing Zhukou.

At that time, Ishiguro Sadazo actually kept an eye out.

I thought that if the camp could not be defended, I could retreat to the commanding heights.

Therefore, the 36th Infantry Regiment and the Engineer Regiment were not allowed to come down at that time.

This means that the 36th Infantry Regiment is already behind the Eighth Route Army's chariot units.

So at this time, even if the 36th Infantry Regiment was transferred back, it would be impossible to block the tank troops of the Eighth Route Army.

Tonegawa Yu once again suggested: "Division commander, quickly transfer the main force of the division to the commanding heights on both sides of the butcher's mouth, and then rely on the advantages of the terrain to stick to it and wait for help."

"Damn it." Shi Hei Zhenzang stomped his foot resentfully.

Immediately he shouted again: "Order, the 3rd Infantry Regiment, the 30th Infantry Regiment, the 28th Search Regiment, and the Chariot Brigade alternately cover and withdraw from the battle. The commanding heights on both sides were shifted and joined with the 36th Infantry Regiment and the Engineer Regiment."

"Hai!" Yuu Tonegawa said with a pause.

Chapter 551

Let's talk about Xu Yougeng's side later.

In a blink of an eye, the devils had approached within 30 meters, and there were still seventy or eighty people, while the soldiers of the Seventh Company had less than 20 soldiers left.

At this point, there are only two options.

Either turn around and retreat, but there is a high probability that you will be regarded as a living target by the devil.

Or it is to launch a countercharge with a bayonet in hand, fight hand-to-hand with the devils, and run out of calculations.

Xu Yougeng chose the latter without hesitation, but when he was about to order an assault, a sudden change occurred.

A stream of dazzling bullets suddenly shot from the side and rear without warning, and the devils who were charging forward immediately fell down row by row.

This time it is no longer one by one, but a row of falling down!

With this firepower density, there must be at least ten heavy machine guns!

Looking up anxiously, Xu Yougeng was pleasantly surprised to see that a dozen tanks and armored vehicles had been lined up in an arrow-shaped assault formation, quickly rolling over from the side of the devil's barracks.

Before this torrent of steel, the flesh and blood of the Japanese army could not stop it at all.

In a blink of an eye, a Japanese squadron that had fought back just now was completely killed and injured.

A few who survived by luck were also run over by the tank tracks and were crushed to death alive.

After a while, more than a dozen tanks and armored vehicles came to the front, and a reinforced battalion from the first division came together. Xu Yougeng immediately led the surviving soldiers of the seventh company out of the trench to meet them.

"You Geng, it's you kid." The turret of a Type [-] tank was pushed up from the inside.

Immediately, Li Sigen's head poked out from the turret, and waved to Xu Yougeng.

"Four roots! You're a fucking idiot. If you don't arrive, the motherfucker will have to collect my body." Xu Yougeng said angrily.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry." Li Sigen apologized quickly.

"Halfway there was a bridge that collapsed and it took a while to rebuild the bridge, but it was delayed."

"Xu Yougeng, Li Sigen, what are you doing? Oh?" ​​When the two were exchanging greetings, a voice sounded, but they saw Shen Quan rushing forward with an angry face.

When the tank company charged just now, it easily destroyed the devil's mortar position.

The main force of the third regiment led by Shen Quan was finally able to rush up and join Xu Yougeng's seventh company.

"Don't be dazed, go ahead, hurry up!" Shen Quan said, "Shoot the little devil!"

"Yes!" Li Sigen agreed, and immediately retracted into the turret, and then the Type [-] medium tank turned around on the spot, and the other nine tanks and six armored vehicles also turned around one after another, and rushed back to the devil's barracks at an angle.

With the addition of the tank company, the situation changed immediately, and the devils began to retreat steadily.

Xu Yougeng soon discovered this, and excitedly shouted: "Captain, the devil can't stand it anymore!"

"No, no, don't talk nonsense." Shen Quan said solemnly, "The devils retreat in an orderly manner. This is not a defeat. The devils should retreat on their own initiative!"

"Retreat actively?" Xu Yougeng said, "Are the devils stupid? Leaving the barracks with complete fortifications unguarded? Go outside and fight us in the open field?"

Shen Quan also frowned all of a sudden.

And that's where he got confused.

But in the next second, Shen Quan reacted.

"No, the devil is trying to seize the commanding heights!"

After Shen Quan reacted, he shouted loudly: "The devil is trying to seize the commanding heights on both sides of the slaughterhouse! Then rely on these two commanding heights to form horns, stick to it and wait for help!"

"Ah?" Xu Yougeng was stunned.

"We have to stop them!" Shen Quan roared.

Then Shen Quan personally led the 1st Battalion to cut obliquely to the commanding height on the right side of the butcher's mouth.

However, before the soldiers of the 1st Battalion approached, dense machine gun fire poured down violently from the commanding heights on the right side of the butcher's mouth, and many soldiers of the 1st Battalion fell instantly.

……

In the forward observation post.

The brigade commander and Wang Ye have also discovered the abnormal behavior of the Japanese army.

"Huh?" The brigade commander said with a light snort, "It doesn't look like a rout, but an orderly retreat."

"Yes, they are retreating in an orderly manner while covering alternately." Wang Ye said with a smile, "If I'm not wrong, the devils want to seize the commanding heights on both sides of the slaughterhouse and stand by for help."

"Ah?" The brigade commander said anxiously, "This is not possible."

Wang Ye said with a smile: "Don't worry, Brigadier, this devil is delusional."

Speaking of this, Wang Ye said again: "Unless the devils leave heavy troops on the commanding heights on both sides of the killing pig's mouth in advance, with the current situation, the two sides are completely mixed up, and the devils can't get rid of our army's pursuit at all, so they Even if we seized the commanding heights on both sides of the Killing Pig, it would be too late to build a line of defense..."

However, before the words were finished, dozens of dazzling tongues of flame suddenly burst out on the commanding heights on the right side of the butcher's mouth.

"This is a heavy machine gun!" The brigade commander's face changed drastically, and he said in a deep voice, "And at least one squadron!"

Wang Ye's face collapsed in an instant. He never expected this. The devil deployed a heavy machine gun squadron on the commanding height on the right side of the butcher's mouth?This means that there is at least one infantry brigade on the commanding heights on the right.

An infantry brigade is deployed at the commanding heights on the right, so what about the commanding heights on the left side of Killing Zhukou?

If there is a brigade on each of the commanding heights on both sides, it can form a strong cover for the main force of the 28th Division, and the main force of the 28th Division can calmly withdraw to the commanding heights on both sides.

In this way, the battle on the flat ground becomes the battle on the high ground.

It is also a tough battle, and it is much more difficult to attack on high ground than on flat ground.

Because the Shanxi Northwest Column now not only has a powerful artillery group, but also has tank companies to assist in the battle. It can not only achieve artillery coverage without leaving any dead ends in the flat ground battle, but also invest in tank companies to forcefully break through from the strongest point of the devil's fortifications. That's why Wang Ye dared to say that there was a [-]% chance of winning, otherwise, just dream.

But when attacking the high ground, the situation is completely different.

When it becomes a high ground attack, the tank company loses its role first.

Then the devils can also use the reverse slope of the mountain to avoid artillery strikes.

If the Shanxi Northwest Column is compared to a strong crab, the artillery regiment is undoubtedly the crab's left claw, and the tank company is the crab's right claw.

But now that the two big claws are useless, this battle will be difficult to fight.

In an instant, fine cold sweat oozed from the foreheads of the brigade commander and Wang Ye.

"Xiao Wang." The brigade commander felt his mouth dry, and said in a difficult tone, "If we join the second detachment now, can we stop the main force of the 28th division?"

"Brigade Commander, it's already impossible." Wang Ye said, "The devils have already deployed heavy troops on the commanding heights on both sides of the killing pig's mouth, and have built firepower points in advance. At this time, it is futile to try to intercept the main force of the 28th Division. The Japanese heavy machine guns on the two commanding heights slaughtered."

After all, the devil's barracks are not far from the commanding heights on both sides of the slaughterhouse.

Originally there was only a gap of less than one kilometer. If the second detachment penetrated further, it would be completely exposed to the firing range of the Japanese heavy machine guns on the commanding heights on both sides.

The brigade commander sighed.

In fact, he also knew it wouldn't work.

The brigade commander said: "We can only fight the fortified battle of the high ground."

While talking, Wei Dayong brought Duan Peng in panting.

Wang Ye's flames shot up, and he kicked Wei Dayong to the ground.

"Wei Dayong!" Wang Ye was obviously impatient, and he called out his name instead of his nickname, "Is your dog's mind full of mud? Oh?"

"The devils have deployed heavy troops on the commanding heights on both sides,"

"You didn't report such an important military situation?"

"Oh? Are you blind or stupid? What about the fucking special forces captain, shame on you!"

After cursing a few words, Wang Ye still felt puzzled, and kicked Wei Dayong violently.

Wei Dayong lay silent on the ground, but the brigade commander rushed up to stop Wang Ye: "Xiao Wang, don't do anything."

At this time, Duan Peng fell to his knees in front of Wang Ye with a puff, and said tragically, "Captain, shoot me quickly."
