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

The fighting was still going on here. The artillery in the rear of the Japanese army opened fire again. After bombarding the artillery positions, the mountain artillery shifted its target. The mortars continued to fire at a high speed. Rumbling explosions were heard. The Second Regiment suffered casualties in personnel and machine guns. The uncovered weaknesses were revealed. Wu Tianxiang's face was solemn.

"First Battalion Commander"!

"arrive"!

"Take two thousand new recruits to the village behind and remove the door panels. Large panels are also fine. Coffin boards and stone slabs will be fine as long as they can withstand mortar bombardment. One hour. I only give you one hour. You must bring them up to me. Do you understand?"

"Captain, if you touch the common people's things, the captain will shoot you."

"Give me the money, owe me the debt first, and remember whoever's property you demolished. Pay me ten times the compensation after the war. My soldiers and machine guns cannot be lost in vain like this. Follow the order, quickly!"

"Yes"!

To Wu Tianxiang's surprise, the Japanese army miraculously stopped the attack. They had been marching for a day and were hungry and tired. They had lost all their tanks. The opposing positions were well defended. The Japanese major general decided to eat first and then attack to consume their energy. At the same time, he sent troops to search both sides and try to bypass them if possible.

When the Tiger Regiment entered Jinan City, it was like a tiger coming down the mountain and a wild horse breaking free. They bombarded fortifications with rocket launchers and hit Japanese blocking positions with mortars. Except for the first battalion and one thousand new recruits left behind by the first special operations battalion of the regiment, the three battalions and twelve companies were all separated after entering the city. The twelve companies were like twelve arrows shot from a bow, and they advanced rapidly in the three directions of due north, northeast and northwest with a devastating force. Behind them were twelve mobile squads composed of one thousand new recruits who were responsible for sabotage, arson and distribution of supplies.

The city of Jinan was in chaos. The defenders of the two regiments were too scattered. They wanted to guard the key departments, but they also received phone calls or orders to go to support and block the enemy. The Japanese command system was in chaos and could not withstand the attack of the Tiger Regiment at all.

The first to suffer was the Jinan Prison on the north side of Yingxiong Mountain, where a squadron of prison guards was stationed. Faced with 200 special forces members from the special operations company of the second battalion of the Tiger Regiment, who were equipped with light and heavy firepower, they were all slaughtered in less than 20 minutes.

The prison was opened, the special operations company was going to continue the raid, and the members of the ranger team began to release people. There were hundreds of prisoners, either anti-Japanese elements or advanced people. In any case, there were definitely no bad guys.

East of Linyi, the Japanese army did not attack those useless villages and towns, but concentrated its forces from Ganyu and launched a surprise attack in the direction of Lanshan. With the cover of naval guns along the coast, the Third Regiment retreated all the way to Hailwenmiaoling, and suffered more than 300 casualties before dragging the time until dark.

"Damn it, this is so frustrating. Where is the commander of the special operations battalion?"

"Commander, we have already conducted reconnaissance. The Japanese army attacking Arashiyama has 12,000 troops and 16 artillery pieces. The rest of the firepower is unknown for now, but the number of mortars will not be less than 40."

"Brothers, the Japanese have set up camp, and the three layers of defense inside and outside are very tight, but we still have to find a way to take action, otherwise when daybreak comes, the Japanese will still be able to advance towards Arashiyama unscrupulously."

"Orders, the guard battalion and the special operations companies of each battalion, carry 60-mm mortars, immediately surround the Japanese military camp and launch a surprise attack. Each artillery attack should not exceed one minute. Do you see the three fires of the Japanese army? Those are the artillery scales used by the Japanese to guide the naval guns. Find a way to get close to them and blow them up, otherwise our sneak attack will not be safe."

"Third Battalion Commander, you take the new recruits to Guancaowang to help the people evacuate. We can't rely on the Japanese's ignorance. If they get to know some news, the people of Guancaowang will suffer a devastating disaster."

"Yes"!

"Except for the special forces members and the new recruits, everyone should disperse and be ready. When you have the chance, rush over and fight to the death. If they don't die tonight, we will be the ones to die tomorrow. Brothers, let's show the spirit of our Third Regiment and kill the Japanese."

"Kill the Japs!"

"Kill the Japs!"

"Kill the Japs!"

At Yanwangbizi Mountain, the Lunan Detachment held a blocking position. Opposite them were more than 20,000 Japanese troops. The Lunan Detachment engaged in a firefight with the Japanese troops in the afternoon.

The two sides became angry as soon as they met. Originally, a battalion of troops was supposed to block the enemy for an hour, but they didn't have time to withdraw and were surrounded by the Japanese. Yang Qingfeng decisively gave orders and sent a telegram to the defenders of Yanwangbizi Mountain ordering them to hold their ground. He set out from Zhaishan with 5,000 troops, passed through the reed marsh of Huibaoling Lake, and launched a charge towards the Japanese army from the side and rear.

The Japanese knew that the defenders here were the Lunan Detachment, and they also understood that their firepower was mainly composed of captured Japanese equipment. They never expected that they also had submachine guns. Five hundred submachine guns led the way and launched a surprise attack on the two regiments that surrounded Yanwangbizi Mountain.

The center exploded and was surrounded on all sides. The two sides were completely intertwined. The main force of the Japanese army had passed the Yanwangbizi Mountain and was about to reach Xinzhuang Town. They never expected that the Lunan Detachment would attack from behind. Shouldn't they block them from entering Feixian County in front?

The Japanese army did not come to support, and the two regiments were fighting with an army of four or five thousand people. It was unclear who would live and who would die. The Lunan Detachment fell behind. The Japanese army felt that the future was bright. They first occupied Feixian County, and then went straight to Mengshan from Feixian County, and fought to the foot of Mengshan Mountain. Even if there was no gain, it was still a victory.

What the Japanese army did not know was that the Lunan Detachment had not only four or five thousand people in the Nishan area, but more than fourteen thousand troops hidden. Because the troops assembled in the Zhongxing Mining Area were not dispersed back, who knew that they would be used at this critical moment.

Political Commissar Li led 8,000 troops to build positions on several hills in Shanhouwan Village. After hearing the report from the scouts, he was puzzled. The Japanese did not go back to rescue, but instead rushed towards him desperately. What was this?

After careful analysis for a moment, he understood what the Japanese meant. They must have regarded Lao Yang's rescue force as the main force. They shook off the main force and captured the county seat of Feixian. This was equivalent to driving a nail between the Yimeng guerrillas and the Lunan detachment, allowing them to hold the county seat while advancing northward to threaten Mengshan.

I felt a little touched. It is true that people die for money and birds die for food. The possibility of entering the hinterland of Mengshan made these devils crazy.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, a large number of Japanese soldiers came into the sight of the ambush team in Shanhouwan. In the distance, smoke and dust were billowing. In front were the Japanese soldiers searching and advancing, and behind them were soldiers advancing in four rows. In the middle were countless baggage and horses. Behind the baggage were still Japanese soldiers carrying mortars or rifles on their backs.

The ambush of the Lunan Detachment was not concealed, but it was already dark and the Japanese thought that the main force of the Lunan Detachment was behind them. Although they sent a search team, they only took a cursory look and did not discover the dense ambush on the hill at all.

After the Japanese search team got out of the ambush circle and most of the Japanese troops came in, Political Commissar Li ordered the guards to give the attack signal.

call out!

A flare was launched into the sky, and densely packed guns appeared on several hills.

Light and heavy machine guns, mortars and Type 38 rifles opened fire at the same time, countless grenades were thrown down the heights, and the Japanese marching troops instantly fell into chaos. How could there be an ambush team here?
