Devil's Army
Chapter 886: Fortifications Lost and Regained
At this time, the Tangshan temporary airport received a report that Major General Shun Banmoto of the 21st Brigade of the th Division of the Japanese Army launched another fierce attack on the south and north of Xiaoguanzhuang Airport. The th Brigade's defenders were under great pressure.
Five H-1 bombers of the second bomber formation at the Tangshan temporary airport immediately took off, looking for fighter planes to support the ground defenders of the 11th Brigade.
Captain Xu's four Huaxia II fighters immediately refueled. They had to return to the airspace above Xiaoguanzhuang Airport as soon as possible. At present, each of their Huaxia II fighters had to fight ten enemies at once.
The Japanese Second Battalion, located north of Xiaoguanzhuang Airport, under the leadership of its deputy battalion commander, gathered less than two squadrons of troops and launched an attack on the position of the first company of the Second Brigade.
The Second Battalion ordered the artillery to bombard the First Company's position. The artillery organized the two 75mm mountain guns left by the First Army and continued to bombard the First Company's position.
The Japanese army's not very fierce bombardment stopped, and the second battalion of infantry began to attack.
When the regiment commander heard that less than two Japanese squadrons were attacking his company, he decided to annihilate the entire Japanese battalion and teach the brigade commander Kunisaki Noboru a lesson.
The first company stubbornly resisted the attack of this large group of Japanese troops. The commander of the first regiment led the second and third battalions to encircle the Japanese group from both wings.
The Japanese Second Battalion also fought hard, and kept rushing forward regardless of the soldiers who kept falling down. At one point, they approached the fortifications of the first company.
The company commander urgently ordered the soldiers to throw grenades. Grenades exploded densely around the soldiers of the Second Battalion of the Japanese Army.
The machine gunners of the first company cooperated and continued to fire at the Japanese army, which finally repelled the attack of the second battalion of the Japanese army.
The Japanese deputy battalion commander's eyes were red as he gathered his troops to prepare for another attack.
However, the regiment commander did not give them the opportunity to take revenge. Before the deputy battalion commander's second attack began, the regiment commander had already completed the encirclement of the 9nd Battalion of the 11th Regiment of the th Brigade of the Japanese Army.
The deputy captain heard the scout's report and recalled the ambush last night, which made him feel bad. He immediately canceled the attack and retreated to Dangyu Town.
However, it was too late, the commander of the first regiment had already launched an attack on the Japanese Second Battalion.
The deputy captain was surrounded by the gunshots and shouts of the devil troops...
The deputy battalion commander immediately asked for help from Brigade Commander Kunisaki Noboru.
Major General Kunisaki Noboru was sulking in the Dangyu Town Command. His two battalions had paid such a high price to occupy the first fortification outside the Xiaoguanzhuang Airport and surround the second fortification. The first fortification was lost in one night.
The signalman came to report: The Second Battalion was surrounded by the devil's troops and was in imminent danger.
Brigade Commander Kuniyuto was shocked when he heard this, and urgently ordered the commander of his 11th Regiment, Commander No Yuichiro, to lead the last battalion of their regiment to rush to reinforce.
Japanese Army Commander Yuichiro Nagano led the 3rd Battalion to rush to reinforce, and Japanese bombers also came to reinforce.
When the commander of a regiment saw the Japanese bombers coming, he ordered his troops to launch a general attack and engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese Second Battalion.
The Japanese bombers circled in the air for several times, and the two forces were mixed up and had no way to start.
Japanese Army Captain Nagano Yu led the Third Battalion out of Dangyu Town and when they reached a narrow path, they were ambushed by two companies of the Second and Third Battalions who were lying in ambush on the roadside.
The Japanese bombers bombed and annihilated the devil troops of the Second Battalion to no avail, and turned to bomb and ambush the devil troops of the commander of the 11th Regiment.
The two companies of the ambush regiment braved the bombing of Japanese bombers and withstood the fierce machine gun fire of the Japanese 11th Regiment, and resolutely refused to retreat. They wanted to create time to completely wipe out the Japanese Second Battalion.
Under the siege of a regiment with superior forces, the resistance of the Japanese Second Battalion became increasingly weak, and was finally wiped out by the regiment.
Seeing that they had completed their mission, the two companies responsible for blocking the enemy threw a wave of grenades at the Japanese army, and quickly retreated by taking advantage of the dust raised by the grenade explosions and the smoke produced by the explosions.
After the continuous explosions of grenades stopped, the commander of the 11th Regiment of the Japanese Army and his rd Battalion finally passed the blocking position of the Devil Forces and rushed at full speed to reinforce the nd Battalion.
But by the time the Japanese Third Battalion arrived, the battle was over, with the bodies of soldiers from the Japanese Second Battalion lying all over the battlefield.
The commander of the 11th Regiment of the Japanese Army, Captain Nosuke, vented his anger on the st Company of the st Regiment on the front line and ordered the artillery of the rd Battalion to fiercely bombard the st Company's position.
The company of soldiers who did not retreat suffered heavy casualties under the fierce bombing by the Japanese army.
At this time, the Japanese bombers came to join the bombing. After the bombing, the commander of the 11th Regiment of the Japanese Army did not give the company a chance to breathe, and immediately launched an attack.
There was less than a platoon of soldiers on the battlefield. The deputy company commander asked the soldiers to take the company commander away, and he and several soldiers were left behind.
The company commander was pushed by the remaining soldiers to retreat to the second line of fortification.
Behind him there were occasional gunshots and the sound of grenade explosions.
At this time, a bomber from the First Army flew over and dropped bombs on the attacking Japanese Third Battalion. But this was of no use, it could only delay the Japanese army from occupying the first line of fortifications.
Shortly after the First Army's bombers flew away, the First Company's first fortification was occupied by the Japanese army.
