188. Chapter 188 Chen Ziyun’s super command ability(2/2)
A dense bullet attack came, and a little devil began to fall in a pool of blood!
At seven o'clock, the bugler of the cavalry company blew the charge trumpet.
The cavalrymen who were originally shooting with Jin-made submachine guns stopped charging and drew their sabers.
Hundreds of cavalrymen repeatedly attacked the Moon Army troops, and the sharp sabers ruthlessly harvested the lives of the little devils!
The guard company troops and the fifth battalion troops took advantage of the short time when the cavalry left to launch fire.
The cavalry came back and forth, killing with their sabers.
When the cavalry left, a large amount of firepower came over.
The 12th Little Japanese Independent Field Brigade was beaten to the point where they were helpless. They wanted to evacuate, but they had no chance.
At around 7:10, the Major Captain was locked in the leg by a machine gun shot from the guard company.
A dense barrage of bullets hit them. The captain, Major, fell to the ground dead with blood holes in his chest.
As of now, the remaining soldiers of the 12th Independent Field Brigade of the Little Devils are less than 200.
The more than a hundred little Japs were hiding in panic near the corpses of other little Japs, their faces full of panic.
It seems that at that time, the Lunar Army Brigade Headquarters had already received the news.
Four Liao-made field guns quickly launched artillery support. The cavalry company and the guard company quickly evacuated the battlefield after hearing the sound of the cannon.
Grenades were fired one after another, and more than a hundred little Japanese were affected by the explosion.
After the four Liao-made field guns of the Yuan Army stopped firing, there were dozens of Japs in the 12th Field Battalion.
There were more than fifty people in that unit, but they were all killed in the shelling of the Moon Army.
After the bombardment ended, the more than 70 Japs left in the east ran in a panic toward the southwest of the county town, hoping to withdraw.
However, the cavalry company troops quickly dispatched, and the cavalrymen opened fire with submachine guns and Czech rifles.
Not long after, all those Moon soldiers were killed.
By 7:30, the Moon Army was independently mixed into the 12th Eastern Independent Field Brigade of the Fourth Brigade, and the entire army was wiped out!
"Bagaya Road, damn the Jinsui Army, they actually ambush the cavalry troops on the outside!"
"Bastards, waste, idiots, the 12th Field Brigade did not conduct an investigation in advance, which resulted in a devastating blow."
"Those stupid pigs are simply a disgrace to the Imperial Army. They were completely annihilated and did not have the slightest impact on the Jinsui Army!"
"Contact the 13th Independent Field Brigade, the 14th Brigade quickly rushed along the gap, broke into the outside of the city, and quickly eliminated the Shanxi-Sui Army outside the city."
"The 15th Field Brigade is responsible for the brigade and regiment headquarters, the artillery unit security, and the cavalry unit is responsible for battlefield security!"
"Tell the two major captains who are commanding the battle, what's happening with Bufu, please attack outside the city and completely recapture the county seat of Xin County!"
At this time, Major General Mitake Tsuda, the commander of the brigade, was no longer happy at all. His face was full of anger and he kept roaring.
Originally, many gaps were blown out of the southern city wall, which allowed Tsuda Mitake to see the dawn of victory.
It turned out that the Lunar Army's attention was focused on the southern city wall, which led to the 12th Field Brigade that was conducting diversionary attacks in the west to be encircled and attacked.
Two infantry companies and a machine gun company of the fifth battalion continued to conduct fire strikes on the west wall.
The guard company attacked from the flanks and the cavalry company attacked from the rear, causing the 12th Field Battalion to be completely wiped out.
Such a loss made Tsuda Mitake furious. Now he could place his hope on the southern city wall.
He urged the two brigades to quickly advance along the gap to the outside of the city, preparing to quickly capture the county seat of Xin County.
Starting at 7:30, more than a thousand little Japs continued to enter and fight outside the city along the gap.
However, as soon as those little devils followed the gap to the outside of the city, their back legs were hit by intensive firepower.
Jin-made light and heavy machine guns, Jin-made submachine guns, moon-type rifles, and moon-type grenades for concentrated fire shooting.
A large number of leg grenades were thrown, and it was almost impossible for the Moon Army troops to gain a foothold outside the city.
They tried various methods, but to no avail.
Instead, many grenade launchers were hit by mountain artillery and were directly destroyed.
Four infantry guns and four rapid-fire guns were destroyed after the advancing bombardment. Two infantry guns and one rapid-fire gun were also destroyed.
The little devils suffered heavy casualties and fought fiercely until nine o'clock in the morning, but they gained nothing.
On the contrary, their force of more than 1,600 people was reduced sharply to 1,200 people, and more than 400 people paid the price of casualties.
Of course, many of the little devil's weapons and equipment were destroyed in the battle.
At this time, the total casualties of the Fourth Independent Brigade were close to 2,000.
Such a heavy loss has already reached the point of breaking one's muscles and bones.
"Bagaya Road, quickly order the mountain artillery unit to fire special bombs."
"Mix green bullets, red bullets, and yellow bullets and fire them!"
"The 13th Independent Field Brigade and the 14th Independent Field Brigade withdraw to rest."
"Gather all the gas masks and equip them to the 15th Independent Field Brigade, and arrange for them to attack at twelve o'clock!"
"Other artillery units assisted in the bombardment and came to confuse the Shanxi-Sui Army."
Tsuda Mitake's eyes were red and his expression was ferocious. He gritted his teeth and gave the battle order.
The so-called special bombs of the little devil are actually poison gas bombs. Are these poison gas bombs divided into four types?
Green bombs and red bombs are irritating gases, please don't make them tear or sneeze.
Yellow bombs are poisonous gases that are erosive. Once in contact, skin and mucous membranes will erode.
Tsuda Mitake asked the mountain cannon to fire those poisonous gases. Do you want to use poisonous gas to resolve the battle?
Of course, the little devil's gas mask can resist irritating poisonous gases, but it cannot resist corrosive poisonous gases.
So do they need enough time to wait for the poisonous gas to dissipate before they can continue their attack?
Otherwise, even they themselves will be poisoned.
The mountain artillery unit began shelling, and at first they fired grenades.
Then they immediately fired gas bombs, and not long after, smoke began to appear in the southern part of Xinxian County.
The commander of the 6th Battalion, Shi Yujian, hurriedly ordered the troops to wear gas masks. Did he intend to continue to hold on to the second defensive position?
But Chen Ziyun frowned. After some thought, he directly gave the order to retreat.
Chen Ziyun is a man of two generations. Because of his hobby, he has read many related TV series and books.
It can be said that he knows very well about little devils.
They paid such heavy casualties, and according to their character, they had already fired poison gas bombs.
Then those gas bombs must be lethal.
The batch of gas masks urgently sent by the Seventh Army Headquarters could not stop the deadly gas attack.
Without any hesitation, Chen Ziyun directly abandoned the second defensive position and retreated to shrink his troops.
At the same time, Chen Ziyun arranged for the messenger troops to immediately deliver the battle order eastward.
The Japs continued their attacks for a day, and they suffered heavy casualties.
With the current mismatch in strength between the two sides, there is no need for the 11th Reserve Regiment to continue to defend.
Of course, it is not the best tactical arrangement to continue to defend and use street fighting to cause greater casualties to the Moon Army.
Do you think the little devil has poison gas bombs? With so many troops engaged in street fighting outside the city, the little devil asks if he can use poison gas bombs on a large scale. The consequences would be disastrous.
Therefore, Chen Ziyun arranged for the Sixth Battalion and the Artillery Battalion to take on the defense outside the county.
The guard company and cavalry company are deployed on the west side of the county; the fifth battalion is deployed on the east side of the county.
Those troops were like two sharp swords, arranged on both sides of the county. When necessary, they could attack at any time, carry out offensive operations, and threaten the rear of the Moon Army.
As for the Wei Monk Reconnaissance Platoon, Chen Ziyun arranged for them to fight on their own, deploying their weapons at random to attack valuable targets.
The county town of Xinxian, which had been undergoing fierce fighting for a long time, suddenly became quiet.
Bu Nao is in the south of the county, where all kinds of poisonous gases spread.
Fortunately, Chen Ziyun commanded the troops to evacuate in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
The little Japanese were resting and preparing, and of course their artillery fired from time to time.
As far as those grenades were fired, they were completely retaliatory artillery strikes by the Lunar Army.
It was at that time that the 11th Independent Field Brigade in the hilly area west of the county seat began to actively carry out combat operations.
