I fought guerrilla warfare in the Yimeng Mountains during the Anti-Japanese War

Looking at the messy artillery position, Iwai Toranojiro was a little disappointed. His reaction was already quick enough, but they still slipped away. Forget it, he had to fight with real guns and swords!

"General, the casualties have been counted. 312 soldiers were killed, 127 were seriously injured, and nearly 200 were slightly injured."

After hearing about the casualties, Major General Jing Hu's face twitched a few times, realizing that he had lost the opportunity to launch a surprise attack:

"Order, Tuye Battalion go back to support the artillery, conduct a thorough search, and ensure that there is no surprise attack.

The rest of the troops calculated the range of the Mengshan artillery and set up camp beyond the range."

After the mountain artillery battalion arrived, they dispersed to build artillery positions, all arranged on the reverse slope, and the Tuye battalion dispersed to guard the mountain artillery battalion to ensure that nothing could go wrong.

After several orders were issued, the Japanese army began to get busy, some were providing support, some were setting up camp. This time, apart from twenty mountain cannons, the only artillery they brought was a grenade launcher. Jing Hu understood that the mortars and infantry guns would be of no use, and in order to move lightly, they didn't even bring many heavy machine guns.

Chen Feng had already returned to the mountain with the artillery, and the artillery immediately entered their combat positions. Looking at the bustling Japanese army at the foot of the mountain, Chen Feng felt that this Japanese commander was not simple! The location of the camp was beyond the range of the 75-meter mountain artillery, and no two of the constructed artillery positions were connected. The 20 mountain artillery pieces were scattered in 20 places, and some of them were set up on reverse slopes. Based on these two points, it was proved that this Japanese commander had done an investigation.

At 8:30 in the morning, the Japanese artillery battalion arrived, and twenty mountain cannons were quickly dragged into the constructed positions. Just as Chen Feng was about to give the order to aim at the Japanese mountain cannons and fire, a buzzing sound suddenly came from the right. Bombers!

"hidden"!

"Hide quickly!"

The commanders of each tunnel front immediately ordered the soldiers to hide. There was actually not much they could do, just retreat from the observation port and hide in the deepest part of the tunnel. In this situation, their survival depended entirely on the strength of the tunnel.

The roar of the god of death was heard, and countless bombs came down with shrill screams.

boom! boom! boom!

A huge explosion was heard from the entire Guimeng Peak from the middle of the mountain. Smoke and dust billowed. The Japanese soldiers at the foot of the mountain looked at the explosion and raised their hands to the sky:

"Cut the board! Cut the board! Cut the board!"

Iwai Toranojiro saw the violent explosion through the telescope and nodded with joy. He had heard that there were bunkers and trenches on Mount Mengshan, and he had read the summary report of the surviving Japanese troops last time in detail. What this group of retreaters said most was that they only saw gunshots but no people.

The explosion had not yet ended, and the medical platoon, led by three squad leaders, rushed into the tunnel to provide treatment. The tunnel was built very solidly, and there was no major collapse, but some rubble fell with the explosion. Many soldiers were bleeding, and many were dizzy from the violent explosion.

"Hurry, use scissors to cut the clothes, clean the muzzle, and bandage it immediately."

Li Caiyun entered the first tunnel, which was heavily targeted by Japanese aerial bombs and had many wounded.

After the Japanese planes left, the mountain artillery at the foot of the mountain opened fire. The sound of 75mm grenades breaking through the air was heard. Smoke and dust continued to billow on the mountain, and the vision was completely blind.

Chen Feng immediately ordered:

"Order: All machine guns in the first tunnel open fire, target the smoke ahead."

More than 20 Type 92 heavy machine guns and Type 99 light machine guns in the first tunnel opened fire, and screams were heard one after another in the smoke. It turned out that the Japanese army was preparing to launch a sneak attack in the smoke from the bombing, and they were not afraid of being killed by the rolling rocks caused by their mountain artillery.

The mountain artillery bombardment continued, and Chen Feng immediately ordered:

"All machine guns lowered their gun heads and opened fire to deal with the crawling Japanese devils."

Some screams were heard from the thick smoke. Chen Feng made a very accurate judgment. These were the elite mountain combat troops led by Pan Jinghu, the 21st Division search team. They were all carrying grenade launchers, and behind each search team member there was an engineer carrying explosive packs, ready to take advantage of the smoke and dust to venture into the trenches and bunkers and blast the defense lines.

The sound of machine guns on the mountain made Iwai Hu feel uneasy. Were they discovered? Iwai Hu ordered the shelling to stop. At this time, the search team should be close to the bunkers and trenches. Iwai Hu still thought that the defenders on the mountain were in the trenches. He had no idea about tunnels. He thought that the fleeing soldiers reported that they could not see anyone, and at most the trenches were covered with some coverings.

When the smoke completely cleared, Pan Jinghu was disappointed. There were no more explosions, which meant that the search team had failed. The 150 search team members and 150 engineers should not be able to withdraw.

"Baga! Baga! Baga!"

Iwai Tiger thought there was nothing wrong with his tactics, but the opponent's reaction made him feel that they were indeed a cold-shooting team. The blind firing of machine guns in the smoke was an exception considering the poor habits of the Chinese.

Pan Jinghu had no idea that there was no shortage of munitions on Mount Meng, and ammunition could even roll out of the tunnels.

After waiting for an hour, none of the search team and engineers withdrew. The two battalions from Pingyi City and Mengyin City had arrived, and the soldiers had finished their breakfast. Pan Jinghu could not wait any longer. He felt that this opportunity was very rare. As long as he could eliminate the cold gun, even if he was mediocre before, he could become a famous general of the Empire of Japan.

Iwai Hu looked at the mountain through a telescope with a cruel smile on his face. The reason for sending a battalion to support the artillery was not only for the twenty mountain cannons, but more importantly to protect some special artillery shells. In the words of Commander Bin Shanyuan, being alive is useless, and the tragic photos of the corpses are more valuable.

On Mount Meng, in the tunnels and caves, all the soldiers had put on gas masks before the arrival of the Japanese army. Shen Honglie's 500 gas masks were just right, and the soldiers were dressed very tightly. It was also thanks to the tunnels and caves that were warm in winter and cool in summer, otherwise they would have suffered a lot.

Soldiers from two battalions of the Japanese army began to climb the mountain. From the front, everything seemed normal, but from the back, every soldier was carrying a backpack. Iwai Tiger was not careless at all. He judged that the wind was from the southeast. All the soldiers from the two battalions advanced from the southeast, and lay down before reaching the open area, waiting for artillery support.

Chen Feng saw something through the telescope and ordered all the soldiers to cover their skin completely, not leaving even a part of their neck or a finger exposed.

At 10:30 in the morning, the mountain artillery opened fire again. All the shells hit the three tunnels. There was no explosion, and thick green smoke came out from the tail of the shells.

For a moment, the top of Mount Meng was filled with green smoke, which dyed the top of Guimeng Peak with a layer of green. It looked very shocking from a distance, but there was a deadly murderous intent hidden under the green smoke.

The soldiers of the two battalions put on masks and waited for the green smoke to dissipate slightly, then launched a charge under the command of the two battalion captains.

"Go to hell!"

The Japanese soldiers' shouts were deafening, but they really couldn't run. This open space had been plowed by countless shells and was full of loose gravel. The soldiers below had to attack while guarding against the gravel dropped by the soldiers above.
