251. Chapter 251 Chu Yunfei directs the defense battle of Yangcun(2/2)
The puppet troops that followed were attacked one after another.
The puppet troops launched a frantic attack on the position of the 12th Reserve Regiment.
The Imperial Association troops following behind were mainly carrying rifles, and these rifles had bayonets already installed on them.
Huang Daofeng raised his telescope to observe and began to issue orders.
Directly engage in hand-to-hand combat and use hand-to-hand combat to break through defensive positions.
But now, after continuous shelling, the covering firepower behind the puppet troops has gradually weakened.
When Huang Daofeng saw this scene, his face turned pale and he clenched his fists tightly.
More than a hundred puppet troops held their swords tightly and quickly charged towards the position.
Of course, Huang Daofeng himself knew that their frontal attack was purely for containment, and the real main attack was on the Japanese troops on the flanks.
At the same time, six infantry cannons subordinate to three infantry battalions also fired in a straight direction for artillery fire.
"It seems that the puppet army they support also has elite soldiers and generals."
At twelve o'clock, the 12th regiment was prepared to launch the firepower of the entire regiment.
He ordered the eight artillery pieces of the artillery battalion to conduct continuous shelling to suppress the firepower of the 12th Regiment in reserve.
Another puppet soldier was only injured in both legs. He fell to the ground and wailed in pain.
This heavy 30-section heavy machine gun was also overturned on the spot.
Kazuki Yamamoto took the initiative to volunteer and prepare for a large-scale roundabout operation.
There was blood mist everywhere, and the ground was covered with puddles of minced meat.
Now Huang Daofeng plans to repeat his old tricks and quickly capture the position of the Shanxi-Sui Army Reserve I2 Regiment.
After the puppet troops' light and heavy machine guns were shelled, they stopped shooting and quickly moved around.
An explosion sounded, and shrapnel quickly spread in all directions.
He still fought according to the previous tactics, preparing to use the Imperial Army to attack from the front and the Japanese troops to flank.
The target of these little Japanese troops was the troops of Ding Weixin's Second Regiment.
The two sides continued to fight here on the battlefield, but the puppet troops encountered stubborn resistance and were unable to continue advancing.
Huang Daofeng raised his telescope and observed carefully, hoping to find the location of the artillery of the Shanxi-Sui Army.
These heavy machine guns created a fire net with no blind spots.
The soldiers who were preparing the 12th Regiment position were also able to react.
The four Jin-made 75MM mountain guns used direct fire to continuously bombard the exposed firepower points of the puppet troops.
They began to launch fierce attacks on the positions of the 12th Reserve Regiment, the New Second Regiment, and the Independent Regiment.
Each puppet soldier who was still advancing rapidly towards the position was beaten into a sieve one by one and fell into a pool of blood on the spot.
"If we continue to fight like this, it will only be a matter of time before our position is breached."
Huang Daofeng raised his telescope to check the situation on the battlefield, and he decisively issued an order.
He personally picked up the phone and contacted each battalion directly.
"Brothers, the Jinsui Army's position is ahead, rush over!"
The heavy machine gun's 250-round ammunition chain was replaced one after another.
The Eighth Route Army could not withstand the blow and was forced to withdraw quickly, and the puppet troops easily captured the position.
The Shanxi-Sui Army troops, who were famous for their sophisticated weapons and equipment and ample ammunition, could not help but be stunned when they saw this scene.
"Arrange the swordsmen at the front, gather all the fire cover, and rush up to directly engage them in hand-to-hand combat."
"Order, the 9th Independent Infantry Brigade and the 10th Independent Infantry Brigade to quickly launch an attack from the flanks."
The grenades were loaded one after another and then fired.
Of course, they are very cautious. After all, for them, their own lives are the most important thing.
However, seeing that the hundreds of puppet troops at the front were less than 80 meters away from the position, Huang Daofeng sneered, thinking that he had a chance to win.
60MM mortars began to be set up in different trench fortifications one after another, as the platoon leader issued orders.
The Sixth Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army had some traitors from the Northwest Army, so he deliberately organized these people together.
Qian Bojun raised his telescope to check the situation on the battlefield, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
Along with the sound of grenade explosions, the bodies of many puppet soldiers were blown to pieces.
It was only at this time that the platoon commanders of each platoon began to issue orders.
60MM mortars, 82MM mortars, 75MM mountain guns, and field guns launched operations.
The two Japanese brigades, which had already completed their deployment, immediately took action without any hesitation after receiving the order from the brigade and regiment headquarters.
And this time Huang Daofeng wanted to achieve greater results. He knew that the Jinsui Army was not good at hand-to-hand combat, so he wanted to use hand-to-hand combat to kill them as much as possible.
The Yamamoto special agent team has already left the brigade headquarters and directly launched combat operations.
The Imperial Army troops advanced rapidly. Light and heavy machine guns, and large and small caliber mortars were set up at different locations to provide covering fire.
At 11:50, the artillery company directly under the regiment took the lead in opening fire.
They were preparing to follow the footsteps of the puppet troops in front and rush to the position quickly.
60MM mortars fired grenades one after another to attack the puppet troops.
The Yamamoto Special Forces were originally supposed to operate together with the armored forces, but they took the initiative to launch the attack first.
7.92MM and 11.43MM bullets hit the puppet soldier's body one after another.
A large number of puppet troops repeatedly attacked the position, and the troops on both sides fell into fierce fighting.
Light machine guns and heavy machine guns continued to spray flames, and dense bullets were fired towards the position one after another.
Shrapnel quickly spread in all directions, smoke filled the position, and dust was flying everywhere.
Ten artillery pieces fired grenades one after another, and the puppet troops' light and heavy machine guns, which kept firing, began to be bombarded.
The officers at the headquarters of the 3rd Independent Mixed Brigade were all aware of the capabilities of the Yamamoto Special Forces, so the Lieutenant Colonel and Chief of Staff specially reminded them.
All the machine guns of the puppet army were firing, and the 20-round magazines of the light machine guns were emptied one after another.
A grenade landed near a heavy machine gun. Seven or eight puppet soldiers had no time to dodge, and they all fell into a pool of blood.
"shooting!"
The hundreds of Imperial Army soldiers at the front carried broadswords on their backs and carried shell guns.
"These Jinsui troops have nothing to fear. As long as they fight hand-to-hand, they will be so scared that they wet their pants!"
There was also a puppet soldier who was directly hit in the chest by shrapnel and fell to the ground with a face full of pain.
"Hi, Your Excellency, Brigade Commander." The Lieutenant Colonel and Chief of Staff at the side agreed immediately.
Yanashita Shigeharu was forced to agree due to the relationship between Yamamoto Kazuki and Shinozuka Yoshio.
Huang Daofeng's tactics are very simple, that is, concentrate all firepower for cover and rush to the position as quickly as possible.
The two or three puppet soldiers who were not killed were wailing in pain.
"Since when did Jin Province have such a powerful puppet army? No wonder the little devils have been unwilling to increase our price."
Some heavy weapons were also destroyed one after another.
The two puppet soldiers suffered vital injuries. They lay on the ground without struggling for a long time before showing no signs of life.
Faced with such firepower, the officers and soldiers of the 12th Reserve Regiment had almost no way to launch a counterattack.
These more than 100 puppet troops were all from the Northwest Army. They felt that as long as they rushed to the position, the battle would be over.
The puppet troops in different positions were bombarded one after another, and they suffered casualties.
"In addition, contact the two major captains and ask them to deploy an elite force and quickly move back to the rear of the position to carry out combat strikes."
Qian Bojun, the regimental commander who was commanding the operation, and Zhang Fugui, the regimental auxiliary, frowned and had solemn expressions on their faces.
The puppet troops were forced to stop advancing and took cover one after another.
The hundreds of puppet soldiers who were only thirty or forty meters away from the position had long been beaten to pieces.
"This puppet army is indeed not simple. Contact the brigade headquarters immediately to report the situation here."
More than 2,000 little Japanese troops advanced in a mighty manner, and four Type 41 mountain cannons quickly launched a bombardment.
At one o'clock in the afternoon, the Japanese army's two machine gun squadrons, two infantry artillery squads, and a rapid-fire artillery squad moved forward to complete the deployment.
This firepower began to spread out cover, with dense rounds of bullets and artillery shells firing from the flanks.
Seven infantry squadrons and more than a thousand little Japs quickly advanced towards the position of the New Second Regiment.
At this time, the New Second Regiment was attacked from the front and flanks at the same time, and the battle was very passive!
Chapter completed!
