Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

The main force in this direction was Zhang Dabiao's Third Column, and the flank was Gao Qing's First Column.

Ding Wei also has the advance regiment, armored regiment, and artillery regiment at his disposal.

It’s not a big deal to confront the Japanese head-on.

The mountainous area is their home ground. Let more Japanese invaders in to cut off their retreat, notify nearby brother troops, and unite to close the door and beat the enemy.

This pot of meat is simmering over low heat. Whoever is able to take the big bone can eat it.

In the northern Hebei direction, Taozi received an order to split up four main battalions and push forward towards Rehe to block the Japanese's southern exit.

Temporary additional troops were dispatched to ensure that the main force of the Japanese and puppet troops were destroyed.

All logistics personnel were mobilized to transport grenades, artillery shells and bullets to the front line.

On the small roads in the mountains, people transported supplies in baskets and backpacks.

They are all my people, little Japs, how do you rely on to win?

The battle during the day was just an appetizer. The troops of both sides were intertwined and the battle became a mess.

The Eighth Route Army, whose squads had stronger firepower, naturally had the upper hand. They also had individual fortifications prepared in advance and some combat ammunition in stock.

Thousands of Japanese invaders rushed into the mountains and suffered a devastating disaster.

The battle lasted from morning to evening, and casualties further increased according to the casualties reported by each brigade.

Fukutaro Nishiyama was a little confused. Over a thousand people were lost yesterday, over a thousand people were lost in the morning, and over a thousand people were lost again after fighting for a whole day.

He didn't believe the specific data and had to wait for the summary after the war.

Judging from the current situation, at least an infantry battalion of troops will be needed to fight every day.

Is it that the puppet army’s combat effectiveness is not good enough, or that the Japanese are not elite enough?

Or is it that this group of Eighth Route Army is difficult to deal with?

The Japanese lieutenant general would rather believe that the puppet army had poor combat effectiveness than admit that Ding Wei's troops were capable of fighting.

The casualty ratio between the two sides reached an astonishing scale of 1:3, especially the minefields, artillery fire, and raids in the early morning, which caused heavy casualties to the Japanese and puppet troops.

In the daytime melee, both sides gained and lost, and comrades also suffered casualties.

He was carried down on a stretcher by medical team members and transported to the rear for recuperation.

The reserve troops were sent forward to reinforce and keep an eye on the front line in the mountains.

The puppet army suffered the most casualties, and the Japanese did not count their casualties. If they died, they were dead, and their deaths were not included in the battle reports.

As cannon fodder for the attack, the cost of killing the puppet troops is not low.

Ding Wei took stock of the casualties of the troops. The overall exchange ratio was not low. The battle line cannot deceive people, but sometimes it can deceive people.

From the mountainous area, the Japanese army broke into the Yanshan area fiercely.

Several thousand-man puppet army regiments and two main regiments of the Japanese infantry all broke into the mountain defense line of the Third Column.

On the surface, the Japs had the upper hand.

In fact, they were stuck in a quagmire in the mountains, and the Eighth Route Army took advantage of the terrain, firepower, and minefields to entangle them and took the opportunity to destroy a large number of their manpower.

Duan Peng, with the elite members of the special forces, has already moved to the rear of the Japanese army and is keeping a close eye on the seven bridges near the entrance to the mountain.

Prepare to blow it up in the dark and cut off the enemy's retreat.

The main force can then attack all at once and shoot down the Japanese who have hidden in the mountains.

The special forces then infiltrated again and headed straight for the Japanese lieutenant general's headquarters.

Special operations were originally created to cooperate with regular battlefields. Using them at critical points can produce unexpected results.

Infiltration operations are their forte, especially melee scenes, which are more suitable for special forces to perform.

Ding Wei was waiting for new news. As the sky gradually darkened, he sent the reserve troops to the battlefield to guard against the Japanese army's night raid.

Tanks, armored vehicles, and artillery regiments worked together to hold the position and provide fire support.

As long as the shells are not empty, the Japanese will have no chance of breaking in.

With the sound of explosions, the bridge was blown up and Ding Wei received the reminder sound of the long-awaited reward.

[Sabotage the Yanshan Bridge, get promoted, get rewards, and get 70 Type 97 light tanks as rewards. ]

Um?Um?Um?

Because of the promotion in position, the reward for blowing up the bridge has also increased?

Ding Wei figured out some of the tricks. He is now the commander of a second-level military region, commanding tens of thousands of elite soldiers.

The rewards for destroying roads and bridges have also been qualitatively improved. The Japanese Type 97 tank is not an advanced thing.

But on the battlefield in Northeast China and China, it is considered to be top-notch stuff.

The Far Eastern Army was mostly equipped with T26 light tanks, which were still a little brother to the Type 34 tank. Of course, the Soviet Union also had a good thing at the bottom of the box, the existence of the T tank torrent.

Most of the armored groups were concentrated on the Western Front, and there were not many T34 tanks in the Far East. After all, the Soviet big brother was not in a good situation and was almost overthrown by the Germans.

Just a slight breath of relief and a chance to counterattack.

The topic has gone off track. Ding Wei is very happy. 70 medium tanks can double the strength of the tank armored regiment.

Each detachment is equipped with a tank company for infantry combat.

Spread the bloodline of the armored troops throughout the military region.

When the time came, the entire army counterattacked.

The Eighth Route Army changed its defensive position and once again presented a miraculous performance in battle, with each company gathering in the direction of the main force.

Upstream currents become a river, and converge into a stream.

The artillery fire pressed in, and the main force launched a crazy counterattack against the Japanese army. The howitzers roared and smashed into the devil's barracks.

The offensive was fierce, and troops from the flanks also launched counterattacks, instantly changing the offense and defense situation from defense to offense.

The artillery fire roared, and under the mark of the dragnet, it fell towards the main force of the Japanese army.

The sound of large-caliber howitzers was overwhelming, and the flying artillery fire was like rolling waves.

The charge sounded throughout the mountains, and all participating troops were thrown into battle, with the goal of using up all their bullets, grenades, and artillery shells in the shortest possible time.

After forming the largest possible force to annihilate the enemy, rush forward to fight and use bayonets to open the gap.

When two brave men meet on a narrow road, the brave one wins. Soldiers must have backbone.

The Eighth Route Army had a strong fighting spirit and Ding Wei had absolutely elite troops at his disposal. They showed no fear in confronting the Kwantung Army.

The offensive was extremely fierce. The main force that had gathered together charged forward, and the shouts of killing were deafening.

The puppet army was the first to be defeated, leaving the main position to Taijun.

The stubborn Japanese fought back desperately, charged with bayonets in hand, and tried to stop the Eighth Route Army by dying with their lives.

But he found himself like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, unable to stop this group of killers.

Zhang Dabiao issued a series of orders, asking the death squads and assault teams to take the lead in charging and boosting morale in order to decide the outcome with one move.

This battle will break the backbone of the Japanese 23rd Division and make it unable to stand up.

Fukutaro Nishiyama was wrapped in his clothes, unable to sleep because of the noise from the frontline. His troops switched from an offensive to a defensive state, and according to feedback from the frontline, it seemed that they could not stop the attack of the Eighth Route Army.

Ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous.

"General, an elite force is heading towards our headquarters, less than 3 kilometers away from the division headquarters."

what's going on?

Fukutaro Nishiyama looked directly at his chief of staff. There was a squadron of infantry patrol at the command center, so how could such troops get nearby?

"Arrange defensive forces and eat them up. Do you really think my headquarters is your backyard?"

In the mountainous area, the humming sound of tanks rang out, coordinating with the infantry to counterattack forward.

The tank guns fired continuously, and the medium tanks were powerful enough to easily pry open the enemy's lines and tear apart the defensive firepower.

"Commander, where did you get some new tanks from?"

Zhou Weiguo asked curiously, he had not received any information about this before, was it from the Soviet big brother?
