Started as a security team, developed into a heavy armored synthesis division

After the Japanese occupied Chao County on April 4, the Sichuan Army in Anqing, southern Anhui did not sit idly by, but looked for opportunities to counterattack.

So on the night of May 5, the 13rd Division of the Sichuan Army found an opportunity to approach.

They received intelligence that the main Japanese forces had headed north to attack Hefei, and that Chao County was garrisoned by only one battalion and a puppet army unit.

If we can capture Chao County, we will definitely be able to suppress the Japanese's arrogance and reduce the pressure on Hefei.

Then the 133rd Division came.

Led by a beggar, the vanguard of the 133rd Division secretly entered the city through the sewers, and then launched an attack on the Japanese at night. Many Japanese died in the attack.

After all, the city gates were closed, and they never imagined that so many people would come into the city to kill them.

Finally, after a day and night of fighting, the 133rd Division broke into Chaocheng and trapped the remaining Japanese forces on Woniu Mountain.

It was a pity that the 133rd Division did not have heavy firepower for attacking the enemy, and was unable to capture Woniu Mountain. Under the strong fortresses and artillery of the Japanese, the 133rd Division suffered heavy losses.

On the 15th, Hefei fell, and the Japanese troops who attacked Hefei from the north began to return to reinforce Chaocheng, and the 133rd Division had no choice but to retreat.

"Battalion Commander, the 133rd Division of the Sichuan Army is retreating from Chaocheng and is now being pursued by the Japanese. Let's go and provide support."

In the camp headquarters, Monkey suddenly ran in to report, and Xiao Dingfang was stunned.

What is the 133rd Division? How could there be a 133rd Division in Chaocheng? Wasn't Chaocheng occupied by the Japanese on the 29th? How could there be a 133rd Division?

After Monkey's detailed explanation, Xiao Ding finally learned that the 133rd Division attacked Chao County on the night of the 13th and captured it.

It’s a pity that due to the reinforcements from the Japanese in the north, the 133rd Division had to retreat.

Monkey learned the news because his subordinates went to the soldiers to get intelligence and went to the silver screen. Another important news was that Hefei had fallen.

It was precisely because the Japanese captured Hefei that they turned back to reinforce Chaocheng.

"Once Hefei falls, the Japanese will move south."

Xiao Dingfang looked at the map on the table, and then asked Monkey to point out the current location of the 133rd Division on the map.

"The main force of the 133rd Division is retreating southward along the river, but two battalions are left behind to block the attack.

One of the battalions was at the foot of Yinping Mountain, not far from our last ambush site.

Another battalion went to the north of Daniu Mountain, probably trying to come to our Sanbing Town through the forest farm.

The key is that they are being pursued by the Japanese troops. I don’t think they can hold out for long and will retreat while fighting.”

It must be said that although the monkey was anxious, he also clearly described the current situation at this moment.

Xiao Dingfang was even more certain that the two battalions of the Sichuan Army would not be able to hold out for long, which meant that the Japanese would soon pounce towards Sanbing Town.

"Monkey, your company will immediately go to the north forest farm to set up a position to meet the Sichuan Army brothers. After receiving the people, immediately retreat to the town entrance and hold it. Do you understand?"

"What about the direction of Yinping Mountain?"

"Don't you need to worry about that? I'll let Yuan Bing take the men over there. Remember, the same old saying applies: bulletproof and artilleryproof. The soldiers must learn to protect themselves.

At the same time, tell the soldiers not to be afraid, I will support you with artillery, understand?"

"Yes, I promise to complete the mission!"

When the monkey heard that cannons were going to be used this time, he became excited and ran out to gather people.

At the same time, Yuan Bing also quickly received an order and selected dozens of veterans in the company and set off urgently with the big plate of chicken.

Xiao Dingfang also came to the 105 cannon position in the back mountain and began to observe with the artillery telescope and began to calibrate the predetermined coordinates.

Once the Japanese pursuers catch up, the 105mm cannon will send them to meet their beloved locusts.

Two hours later, at the foot of Yinping Mountain.

"Battalion Commander, you guys retreat quickly, I'll hold off the Japs!"

A company commander shouted loudly, crawling on the ground, firing bullets from the Czech light machine gun in his hand. The series of bullets suppressed the Japanese so that they could not raise their heads.

Da da da, da da da, the battalion commander also poured out firepower from the light machine gun to provide cover for the retreating soldiers.

"Wait a little longer, the deputy battalion commander and his men haven't gone up yet."

The battalion commander responded loudly, and then continued to suppress the Japanese with firepower.

Although they were retreating, they were very methodical. The machine guns in the front suppressed the Japanese attack, and then another group of people retreated in the back. After establishing blocking firepower in the rear, they retreated in turns.

Boom, boom!

The grenade launcher shells exploded nearby, and several Sichuan Army soldiers were unfortunately killed. Several more soldiers were hit in the forehead by the Japanese rifles and died on the spot.

Moreover, at this time, the bullets in their two machine guns had been used up and they needed to change the magazines.

But at this moment, a series of machine gun fire was opened from the rear, and the battalion commander immediately laughed. This meant that the deputy battalion commander and his men had already moved into position and started to provide them with fire support.

But he soon discovered something was wrong, because the firepower of the machine guns was... too strong, at least six or seven machine guns were firing at the same time.

Dense bullets flew out, and soon more than a dozen of the attacking Japanese soldiers fell down. Seeing this, the rest of the Japanese soldiers quickly retreated, but they were also shot into a sieve by the dense machine gun fire. In just a blink of an eye, dozens of the Japanese soldiers who rushed up were killed.

That's right, Yuan Bing has arrived. Although there are only 50 of them, the 7 big guns in the company are no joke. There are 60 rounds in a magazine. The power and sustained firepower are simply terrifying.

"Captain, reinforcements are coming to meet us."

"Quick, retreat while you have the chance, quick."

The two men reacted quickly and led the remaining dozens of soldiers to retreat to the rear. Although several soldiers fell under the grenade launcher shells, most of them retreated safely.

"Hello, I'm the battalion commander Ma Panshan. Thank you for your support. Which unit are you from?"

After briefly introducing himself, the battalion commander asked Yuan Bing directly.

"We are from the 8th Security Regiment. Let's retreat quickly. The enemy's grenade launchers are about to attack us."

When they heard that they were from the security corps, not only the battalion commander, but also the deputy battalion commander and the rest of the Sichuan Army soldiers were stunned.

Your security team is well-equipped.

They have only four light machine guns in a battalion of hundreds of people, but you have seven light machine guns for only a few dozen people, and the shapes of these machine guns are very peculiar.

But this was not the time to ask these questions. After picking up the people, Yuan Bing quickly retreated along the mountain road.

During this period, the Japanese did not give up and continued to pursue them along the mountain road. As a result, Yuan Bing and his men turned around and saw a volley of bullets. The Japanese only began to retreat after suffering nearly a hundred casualties.

On the other hand, another Sichuan Army camp retreating from the north was not having such a good time.

Because the terrain there was flat, and the Japanese had tricycles and trucks, they were able to keep a close eye on them. The main force battalion, which originally had hundreds of people, now had only 200 people left.

Fortunately, Xiao Dingfang in the back mountain of Sanbing Town had already seen his Sichuan Army brothers and the Japanese pursuers with a telescope.

So he immediately ordered: "Cannon Company, get ready!

Set up all the elements..."
