Changling Mountain.

The entire Changling Mountain has a road from Chaocheng to Jincheng on the right wing of the mountain.

But now, this hilltop, less than 300 meters high and covered with gravel, with only a ridge leading to the south, has been occupied by the Japanese.

The surrounding ridges and the road to the north were all cut off. The long ridges on both sides and the high area in the middle had become the only remaining positions.

The sound of artillery fire became a constant in Changling Mountain.

The hillside of Changling Mountain was almost completely engulfed in flames, with only scorched earth, burnt corpses, and some exposed rocks.

The bloodstains on the rocks had turned into black dirt.

Some bomb craters were blown up on one side after another, and the Changling Mountain Road was no longer recognizable as a road.

Because the corpses rolled down from the mountainside and some gravel rolled down from the mountain, the entire road almost became a field of minced meat. In the concave area on the side, there was a place where a pool of blood had accumulated, and the strong smell of blood filled the surrounding area.

Wang Jiantang slowly put down the telescope in his hand and looked at the surrounding situation. His face became very solemn, but at this time a voice sounded in his ears.

"Commander, the Japanese encirclement has been formed and is now shrinking. The Fourth Battalion can't hold on anymore." Changsheng ran over quickly and said in a hurried tone.

He also saw that when the Japanese surrounded them, their attacks were extremely steady and they never rushed indiscriminately.

"Let the Fourth Battalion withdraw its second defense." Wang Jiantang leaned against the position, tightened the bandage on his arm, and whispered.

For him, the current situation is that the more than 30,000 Japanese devils are still the elite of the Kwantung Army, so from the beginning to the end, he knew that he must not fight the Japanese devils head-on with the previous fighting style.

If they continued with their previous style, they would suffer heavy losses. Now all he had to do was wait for news...

Although the intensity of the battle was very high, the news from the brigade headquarters was what he was most concerned about.

Just as Wang Jiantang was observing the Japanese position, a communications soldier quickly came up.

"Captain, here's the latest telegram from Brigade Lin. Hold your ground and be ready to counterattack at any moment."

The sound of gunfire was loud and continued to echo around, and the sentence was simple and clear.

After hearing this, Wang Jiantang's eyes lit up, but then his eyes became solemn again. There was a standard in the Tiger Guard Brigade: the fewer orders, the more difficult it would be.

Wang Jiantang took a telescope and watched the Japanese attack.

It can be said that the Japanese's fighting style was the most organized among all the Japanese that Wang Jiantang had encountered, and their execution of orders was the strongest.

There were several times when they wanted to attack, but these Japanese soldiers were not fooled. Without absolute certainty, they chose to consolidate the occupied hillside and then advance.

When attacking the hill, consolidate your position and build cover!

These were the most difficult Japanese soldiers Wang Jiantang had encountered since he followed Lin Tianchen. From slowly shrinking the encirclement to the orderly attack, they advanced step by step. This style of fighting was very sophisticated.

It was obvious that the troops in front of him were commanded by one commander, which made Wang Jiantang very alert, because he knew that if he was not careful, the regiment would be in an irretrievable situation.

"Let the second battalion occupy the ridge on the right wing, and the third battalion occupy the ridge on the left wing."

"Remember, our mission is to hold them off. Although the Japanese have 30,000 men, we must utilize this terrain and maneuver when necessary. We can control the number to around 10,000 and we can definitely hold the position."

"Have commanders at all levels be flexible and adaptable! We must preserve our manpower. When the Lin Brigade arrives, we will counterattack and exact revenge!!!"

"Changsheng, prepare the flag well."

Wang Jiantang spoke in a firm tone. Now the regiment was too outnumbered and could only fight by taking advantage of the terrain.

"Yes." Changsheng nodded immediately, and the soldiers who were delivering the message left quickly.

At this moment, a roar came from the sky.

At this moment, Wang Jiantang's eyes suddenly became solemn and he shouted loudly.

"Devil bomber!"

"hidden!"

As the sun sets, the clouds in the distance have turned blood red.

On the mountain road heading towards Changling Mountain, some figures of different sizes were walking quickly, carrying some things on their backs.

Among the team, many soldiers carried radios on their backs. When they were moving, they did not dare to turn off the radios and kept receiving at all times.

Many soldiers carried boxes of artillery shells, but this time, except for a few radios, the entire command room was not moved.

Because Lin Tianchen personally led the team to the vicinity of Changling Mountain this time, and besides a guard reconnaissance platoon, he was only accompanied by an artillery battalion.

"Brigade Lin, the Second Regiment has already begun moving north towards Changling Mountain. Be prepared at any time."

"The Independent Regiment, the 35th Division, and the Logistics Regiment still have about 20 minutes to reach their designated location."

Fang Bailu monitored the telegrams at all times and began to report the situation as soon as a telegram came in.

Lin Tianchen nodded when he heard this. The visual map extended forward more than 30 kilometers. The area around Changling Mountain and at the foot of the mountain, the roads were almost all covered with dense red dots.

Among them, there were countless heavy firepower, which surrounded Changling Mountain tightly.

In some places, he also saw some scattered red dots invading above the waist of Changling Mountain.

The main mountains of Kuai and Changling are separated in the middle of the ridges on both sides.

"The Kwantung Army is very skilled in encirclement tactics." Lin Tianchen looked at the battle situation, frowned slightly, and his expression became very solemn.

There are more than 30,000 Japanese devils, all of them are elite. In terms of combat effectiveness, as a unit, they should be veterans who have been trained for a very long time.

Whether it is tactics or fighting style, it is sophisticated and ruthless.

This was the toughest nut to crack since the Northern Expedition. If it weren't for the First Regiment in Changling Mountain, the consequences would have been disastrous and the army might have been defeated.

The Third Regiment was very good at positional warfare, but its fighting style was not as varied as that of the First Regiment. The Third Regiment made the most of its positions and fought the Japanese to the death. Either the positions were breached or the Japanese were unable to wield their weapons.

These 30,000 elite Kwantung Army troops obviously had very diverse fighting styles, their commanders were very active in their dispatches, and they had rich command experience.

"We can't let these little devils stay." Lin Tianchen's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he murmured, the stronger these little devils are, the more they cannot be allowed to stay.

Now the 35th Division and logistics, the independent regiment is about to arrive at the position, and now the 2nd Regiment is almost in position, ready to break through the Japanese formation.

"Zhu Zi, build a bombing zone protection circle for the regiment." Lin Tianchen had already drawn a detailed map and marked it when he arrived.

They may not have bombers, but accurate artillery fire is their greatest weapon, which can target and eliminate the enemy's heavy firepower.

"Yes." Zhuzi took the map solemnly and looked at it immediately. He instantly understood the bombing area inside the map.

The bright red in the sky also gradually began to fade at this time.

The figure gradually moved away, and night was about to fall.
