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

On the Menglianggu side, six 75 mountain cannons from half an artillery battalion bombarded Menglianggu for an hour. The infantry had finished their meal and rested. Endo Torapisei did not plan to deploy all his troops and only sent one battalion to Menglianggu.

A thousand infantrymen, led by the battalion commander Yoshikawa Kennan, crouched down and went up. During the pursuit of Nanjing in the Battle of Shanghai, Yoshikawa Kennan once led a battalion to chase a division of the National Army for 80 kilometers and even broke up the division. Now, facing Menglianggu, which was reported to have two or three thousand troops, he did not take it seriously at all and believed that the battalion could reach the top of the mountain with a single charge.

Shen Honglie looked at the approaching Japanese troops through the telescope with a scornful smile on his face:

"Order Captain Qu to let the Japanese come up 100 meters before opening fire. Only use one-fifth of the light and heavy machine guns, and do not move any artillery. Except in the first tunnel, no one is allowed to fire. Violators will be subject to military law."

The messenger picked up the phone:

"Captain Qu, Commander Shen has ordered that we should open fire only after the Japanese have advanced one hundred meters. Only one-third of the light and heavy machine guns should be used, and all artillery must not be moved"!

The Japanese army climbed halfway up the mountain, but found no tunnels or defenders, only a mess of bushes blown up by artillery shells. Yoshikawa Kennan muttered to himself, "Will they run away?" It was not uncommon for the Chinese road team to run away. If they ran away from the back mountain, it would be a pity. We could not wait any longer. Yoshikawa Kennan drew out his command knife and waved it forward:

"Go to hell with this."

A thousand Japanese soldiers began to charge while shouting, three hundred meters, two hundred meters, one hundred meters.

With a bang, the National Army in the first tunnel opened fire. Two heavy machine guns, five Type 99 light machine guns, and thousands of rifles, the Japanese soldiers fell in large numbers.

Yoshikawa Kennan hurriedly ordered his troops to lie down and fight back. These devils had practiced their shooting skills on living people in Nanjing, so they shot very accurately. However, the light and heavy machine guns were hidden in the bunker, and the shooting holes were very small. All the bullets passed through the bushes and hit the cement of the bunker, splashing sparks.

Seeing that the counterattack had no effect, Yoshikawa Kennan ordered the soldiers to climb up and throw grenades, and groups of Japanese began to climb up while fighting back.

The two heavy machine guns and five Type 99 light machine guns suppressed the enemy too fiercely. All they could see were flying bullets and splashing gravel, and they couldn't go up at all. Yoshikawa Kennan at the back kept shouting at them to move forward. They had no choice but to climb up, but most of them were killed by bullets. Yoshikawa Kennan didn't expect that even if they climbed to 30 meters and threw grenades, it would be useless as the grenades could not reach the inside of the tunnel at all.

Shen Zizhong in the second tunnel was extremely anxious. If the commander of the position was not allowed to move around, he would have gone to the first tunnel through the connecting trench in the tunnel. If the commander-in-chief had not ordered no one in the second or third tunnels to fire, he would have killed the captain on the opposite side with one shot.

98k! The 98k with sniper scope was specially equipped for the Lone Wolf Commando. In order to encourage the guard battalion and the elite company to practice shooting, Chen Feng specially proposed a shooting competition on the third day before the end. The first prize was a sniper rifle. Shen Zizhong passed through layers of obstacles, defeated all opponents, and finally took over the sniper rifle from Chen Feng.

Back on the mountain, except for his uncle and commander-in-chief Shen Honglie who fired a few shots, no one else was touched. Seeing the lieutenant colonel on the opposite side directing the charge through the sniper scope, Shen Zizhong almost couldn't help but shoot him, mainly because the Japanese was too despicable. However, remembering the commander-in-chief's order to punish him severely, Shen Zizhong still didn't dare to shoot.

Seeing that the Japanese soldiers in the front row had climbed to the 50-meter line, Shen Honglie understood that as long as these devils jumped up and charged forward, he could throw the grenades.

"Order the second line of defense to use rifles to attack the front row of the Japanese and do not expose the machine guns."

The signalman quickly picked up the phone. Shen Zizhong was delighted when he received the order. Others could attack the front row, but his sniper rifle could not waste such an opportunity.

After giving the order, Shen Zizhong adjusted the angle and found the Japanese lieutenant colonel holding the command knife. He was more than 300 meters away, but this guy was still so cowardly. He had been hiding behind a rock behind the bushes to give orders. He must be too afraid of death!

Shen Zizhong aimed at a big rock, and when the Japanese lieutenant colonel showed his head to see the situation ahead, he pulled the trigger. The sniper rifle shook for a moment, but Shen Zizhong still saw a line of blood from the sniper scope. It was a headshot. It was so satisfying! Cold gun, the god in my heart.

The Japanese captain was shot dead, and the three squadron leaders took over the command, ordering the Japanese soldiers to continue crawling forward. Finally, a Japanese soldier crawled to the 30-meter line despite the flying wind. They couldn't throw the grenade there by crawling, so dozens of Japanese soldiers opened fire, knocked the grenade on their helmets, stood up and threw it towards the location where the machine gun was spraying fire.

boom! boom! boom!

Phew! Phew! Phew!

The Japanese soldiers who stood up were shot into sieves. After the explosion, the machine guns did not stop firing and continued to harvest the Japanese soldiers who were climbing up.

The three squadron leaders knew there was no hope, and they blew their whistles collectively, and the less than half of the remaining Japanese soldiers retreated like a tide.

Shen Honglie slapped his thigh:

"It's so satisfying, so damn satisfying. You little Japanese devils, now you have come to this day! Come on! Keep attacking! Menglianggu is your burial place."

"Notify the troops to be on guard against artillery fire and continue to wear gas masks. No one knows whether the Japanese have poison gas bombs, so it's better to be cautious."

"Yes"!

Just ten minutes after the Japanese retreated, the mountain artillery at the foot of the mountain fired again. Unlike the last time, this time they fired a few test shells and then fired at the first tunnel that had just been fired. Six mountain cannons fired for a full hour, and the bushes above the tunnel were all blown to pieces. Fortunately, the tunnel was stable enough, and there was no collapsed area except for the dust and rubble that were shaken down.

Shen Honglie was in the machine gun bunker in the third tunnel, wearing a gas mask and giving orders in a muffled voice:

"Notify the commanders of the three defense lines. If the Japs dare to send another battalion up, open fire with all your firepower. Use the mountain cannons to blow up the artillery positions at the foot of the mountain. Use the other cannons to attack the Japs' assault troop. After you've defeated the assault troop, send out your entire army to attack. I'm going to wipe out these Japs."

Endo Torapi was almost mad when he saw that only 300 people from a battalion had come down. It was impossible, absolutely impossible, how did they do it? He asked the squadron leader who had retreated, and his heart was filled with anger again. The damn Chinese actually provided cover on the trenches. It was terrible.

Endo Torapisa was most afraid of the punishment from the division commander. Numata Tokushige was not only cruel to the Chinese, but also terribly cruel to his own people. He had lost 700 soldiers. If he failed to take Menglianggu, Numata Tokushige would never let him go. He ordered the artillery to adjust the coordinates and focus on attacking the trenches. The cover of the trenches must be lifted.

After the artillery bombarded for an hour, Norishige Numata ordered all the infantry to attack, bringing indirect fire guns and artillery shells, as he did not believe that they would not be able to capture Menglianggu this time.
