Traveling through 1937, starting from the Battle of Songhu

Chapter 412: Xiaowang Village Position Battle Part

"Commander, the battalions are running low on M60 ammunition, and the machine guns are badly damaged. There are only about thirty of them left in all the battalions combined."

Yang Zhenhua's report made Gu Changfeng feel even more heavy-hearted. Without much thought, he said, "Fight the devils one more time and then retreat. We'll deal with the bullets when we get back."

In fact, he originally wanted to finish the fight tonight, at least to attract all the Japanese's attention here and create an opportunity for Wu Mazi.

The three battalions that went out had to surround Laiyuan, and they had to be given two to three days, and it would be best if they were not discovered by the Japanese, so it would still be difficult.

"Okay, I'll arrange it," calm Yang Zhenhua said nothing, nodded and went out.

Ten minutes later, the Japanese attacked again, and the soldiers still fired machine guns and Type 38 rifles.

This time, the Japanese came up again with more than 5,000 people, which put great pressure on the soldiers of the three battalions.

The soldiers were actually exhausted after fighting for a whole day, but there was nothing they could do. The Japanese could replace their soldiers, but they couldn't.

"Kill the chicken and give it to me!"

"Hakazai!"

.........

This time the Japanese attack seemed much more panicked, and their shouts were disorganized. Their momentum was no match for the exhausted independent regiment soldiers.

Da da da………

Boom boom boom!

This time the independent regiment did not disappoint the Japanese. The three battalions opened fire at full power, with the intention of leaving no trace.

Of course, they only have artillery shells and M60s. The independent regiment has plenty of other weapons and ammunition. A lot of them were captured on the battlefield during the night battles, so they will not be short of them for a few more days of fighting.

Boom boom boom!

The artillery battalion received Gu Changfeng's telegram and started to attack again, causing the Japanese artillerymen to scream and howl.

The three battalions' infantry artillery did not hold back and targeted the Japs' rear guard.

There were machine guns in front and artillery fire from behind. What else could the Japanese do but charge forward with gritted teeth? They couldn't retreat so soon after they entered the battlefield.

The battle lasted for an hour and a half. The Japanese soldiers could not bear it anymore and evacuated the battlefield one after another.

"Kill!"

"Kill these damn devils."

Seeing the Japanese retreat, the soldiers on several battlefields rushed out of the trenches!

"kill!"

Liu Dagou roared, aimed the rifle in his hand at a Japanese officer and shot him in the head. He had tolerated this little Japanese for a long time.

The Japanese soldier holding the command knife was very showy, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was an officer.

The Japanese were completely dumbfounded. They only regretted that their parents gave them legs that were too short. They could not outrun the enemies behind them.

boom!

Another bow-legged Japanese soldier died under the Big Dog's gun. When the old Japanese soldier Shuichuan heard the news, he was stunned.

Naturally, the commanders in the rear of the Japanese army reacted quickly and sent out large teams to support them. The Japanese army that were resting had no choice but to get up and continue fighting.

After five hundred meters, the soldiers of the independent regiment stopped and quickly returned to the trenches, leaving only their proud backs to the Japanese.

The Japanese troops who came to support us didn't see it at all, otherwise they would have to use their guns. It's really infuriating...

At this point, Mizukawa Kita was helpless. Several attacks hadn't had any significant effect, and he didn't dare to talk about continuing.

Inside the Japanese command center, at the strong request of Kobayashi Ichizo, the Japanese soldiers were given time to rest and they no longer had to fight.

Whether they were thankful or not, the Japanese soldiers fell asleep at three in the morning, except for those on guard patrol.

A few old Japanese soldiers were still very cautious. In order to prevent the independent regiment's rapid-fire artillery and heavy artillery attacks, their barracks were spread out very far apart, and the mountain artillery was also concentrated and aimed at the direction of Xianyaling. They were afraid that the independent regiment would attack them while they were resting.

In fact, Gu Changfeng really had that idea, but after reconnaissance, he found no chance and no target for cluster attack on the battlefield, so he simply did not use Katyusha.

Um... 107 has been used a few times.

In the tunnel, under the orders conveyed by Gu Changfeng, the soldiers in the trenches began to make arrangements, and the artillery camp below Xianyaling was also ready for artillery fire.

Just because there was no opportunity before doesn’t mean there will be no opportunity later. Gu Changfeng is not someone who will suffer a loss. He will take revenge on the spot.

In order to confuse the Japanese, the soldiers pulled out a lot of Japanese corpses from the battlefield and placed them in the trenches.

At five o'clock in the morning, the soldiers, led by their company commanders, entered the tunnels one after another and began to evacuate.

Behind Xiaowang Village is Mizukawa Kita's 6th Division, which is heavily guarded. However, they don't know that near a tent to the east of them, a large stone embedded in the soil was slowly pushed away.

A head popped out of the cave, looked for a while, and then made a few gestures downwards.

The Japanese patrol had just passed by and did not notice that a stone had been moved in the dark, which meant that the 6th Division was doomed.

Gu Changfeng knew that there were Japanese devils here, so he planned to make a big move before leaving to completely cut off the Japanese devils' path.

As wave after wave of soldiers walked out of the cave, more than two hundred people had gathered in the darkness. The Japanese patrol had arrived, and a battle between the two sides was about to break out.

Da da da!

The firepower teams gathered from several battalions instantly wiped out the Japanese patrol.

But once the gunshots were heard, things definitely couldn't end well.

The Japanese soldiers nearby came out of the tents with guns in their arms, and what they had to face was a large number of strafing fire from Type 99 rifles. Large groups of Japanese were caught off guard, and they couldn't figure out where these enemies came from.

The gunshots became more and more frequent, and the entire 6th Division of the Japanese were alarmed and gathered towards the east.

By this time, more and more soldiers from the independent regiment came out and joined the battlefield.

After all, it was a surprise attack, and the Japanese soldiers were in a daze, so the soldiers had a great advantage.

The attack on the east side of the Japanese camp, although it cannot be said that the center was destroyed, at least brought heavy casualties to the Japanese here. After twenty minutes, a battalion of Japanese were almost crippled.

The main reason was that the Japanese were too concentrated, and the artillerymen were behind the firepower team. Dozens of Japanese fell to the ground with one shot. It would be strange if the casualties were small.

"Order the soldiers of each battalion not to linger in the fight but to break through directly. The Japanese will be dealt with by their own artillery battalions."

For safety reasons, at the request of Yang Zhenhua and others, Gu Changfeng was the last group of wounded soldiers to arrive on the ground. After observing the situation, he directly issued such an order.

Da da da!

The machine guns were merciless, the devils were killed, and the soldiers began to break out to the east.

Under the alternating cover of evacuation, the Japanese soldiers had no chance at all except for their artillery who could cause some damage to the soldiers.

It was also easy to tear open the encirclement on the east side. With hundreds of Type 99 rifles and snipers clearing the way, the Japanese could not stop them at all, and the hole was torn open in a short while.

The Japanese soldiers were furious and chased after them, shouting loudly, completely ignoring any danger.

whoosh…

At this moment, the sound of artillery shells breaking through the air suddenly reached the ears of the Japanese.

Katyusha finally did not hide and dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese at this moment.

Boom...Boom...Boom!

A huge explosion sounded next to the Japanese soldiers, and dozens of them were killed by one bomb. The retreating soldiers grinned and burst into laughter.

"Haha, good job, brothers from the artillery camp, blow these bastards to death."

I have to say that Lu Daya had a very good timing. The Japanese gathered on the east side. After one round of grenades, all the Japanese on the east side were torn to pieces.

The explosion of hundreds of large-caliber grenades stunned the Japanese soldiers who were chasing the soldiers and made them stop in their tracks.

At least a thousand Japanese soldiers were killed in this wave. It would be strange if they dared to chase them again.
