217 The Battle of Lijiapo
"kill!"
In the darkness of night, shouts of killing sounded.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Three platoons of troops scattered and attacked the highlands. Three people and one group, each group was separated by seven or eight meters from each other, scattered on the highlands like a group of ants.
The second platoon leader Chen Shitou shouted, and took the lead in raising his gun to fire, and the explosion of gunpowder sounded.
A bullet rushed out of the chamber of the gun and hit a Japanese man on the shoulder. The Japanese who dug the ground immediately knelt down.
Company Commander Chen raised his gun and killed three people, turned around the gun and killed a small team leader of the Japanese. Then, he picked up the gun and jumped into the trench, raised the bayonet to penetrate a Japanese chest.
"Ah!" the Japanese screamed.
He took a step back and pulled out the bayonet steadily. He heard the sound of wind behind him, and he shook the butt and turned around with intuition.
"Wow!" A butt was hit by the Japanese engineer's head and bent the Japanese's nose. Seeing this, the leader of the third platoon stepped forward and made a break.
"Puff!" The white knife came in and the red knife came out.
Because the soldiers touched the Japanese, there were not many guns and bullets fighting. After a brief hand-to-hand combat, three regular squads killed all the Japanese engineers.
"The fourth platoon immediately builds the fortifications. The second platoon and the third platoon follow me to stop the Japanese." With Chen Han's order, the second platoon personnel scattered behind a pile of stones. The third platoon began to set up machine guns as firepower platoons. The fourth platoon began to build the suggested fortifications based on the original Japanese, mainly to dig two trenches to avoid artillery attacks, so as not to be destroyed by a wave of troops.
At this time, the Japanese at the foot of the mountain also discovered that the Eighth Route Army had occupied the Lijiapo Highlands. Captain Yamazaki drew his command knife and raised his knife to lead the Lijiapo Highlands. The dense Japanese soldiers carried guns in pieces and rushed to the Lijiapo Highlands in pieces. Once thousands of Japanese were spread out, they were wearing dog skins and holding plaster flags, their power was really numb.
Company Commander Chen secretly traveled to Chen Cang and seized the high ground, which obviously made the proud Yamazaki Japanese feel humiliated.
"Bang!Bang!"
"Bang!"
A 55-man artillery team of the Japanese was stationed at the foot of the mountain. Kaji and Kaji quickly built the grenade launcher, adjusted the coordinates, and put the shells into the bullet one by one according to the operating rules. Then a muffled sound came out and the shells fell on the Lijiapo high ground.
"Boom! Boom!" The first wave of shells hit and exploded violently. The Japanese rushed up the mountainside under the cover of shells and began to crawl on the mountainside to shoot and advance.
"Hidden! Hidden!" The four rows in the trench fell down directly, the three rows and the second row were all blown up, and not many people were actually killed.
There were quite a lot of scratches on his face and his arms.
After the first round of artillery bombing, Chen Han raised his rifle and took the lead in firing his gun: "Bang!"
"Bang!"
Two Japanese fell down.
"beat!"
"Blow me hard!"
The firepower of the first company began to be emitted, light machine guns, grenades, and threw them out for no money.
Yamazaki Japanese hid behind the armored vehicles on the side of the road, with two guard squads, and two squads of troops under his command to mobilize.
At this time, he used a telescope to observe for a while, and a hint of fierceness appeared on his face: "I inform the Third Team and the Fourth Team to climb the high ground around the left and right sides to attack the Eighth Route Army blocking the road!"
"There is only one company of the Eighth Route Army on the mountain, and it must be taken down within ten minutes."
Fortunately, the Japanese armored vehicles could not drive to the high ground, so they could only use their personnel artillery to fight hard with Yi Company. However, because the company gained the advantage of the high ground, they did not retreat in a single step in fifteen minutes! No wonder the division commander ordered that the Japanese should not seize the high ground.
What about the two small troops sent by the Japanese to attack on the two wings? On the right side, a squad happened to hit the artillery squad ambushed in the mountains and forests. Datong led the artillery squad to shoot flat with a throwing tube. One squad went directly to a Japanese squad, successfully blocking the Japanese squad's pace, but also shattering the idea of causing the artillery squad to attack.
Sure enough, the battlefield changes rapidly, and all theories are not as good as actual combat. The knowledge obtained on paper is always shallow, and only strength is the foundation.
Fortunately, the troops led by Chen Han were brave in combat, and the two platoons of troops were stubbornly blocking them. When the Japanese artillery team corrected the coordinates in the third round and were about to launch the shelling again...
"Retreat into the fortification!" Company Commander Chen issued a decisive order.
The soldiers began to give up their first line of defense and retreated one after another. The four platoons worked hard to dig out two trenches. The soldiers hid in the trenches and continued to fight, but the first battle alone had already fought hard.
"Boom! Boom!" Several shells exploded next to the trenches. Once they hid in the trenches, most of the Japanese grenade launchers would be destroyed.
The several piles of gravel that Company Commander Chen used as the defense line were really blown into powder by shells.
"Where are the two teams that have climbed the heights on both wings?" Half an hour later, Captain Yamazaki cursed angrily.
A correspondent called out: "The squads on both wings were blocked by the Communist army. The division command sent a telegram, saying that many Chinese troops were gathering with our headquarters and forming an encirclement. The division headquarters had sent air force support and ordered Yamazaki Brigade to seize the Lijiapo Heights, and nearby Honda and Koizumi Brigade were coming to support."
The Yamazaki Japanese knew that they had entered the Eighth Route Army, but what could the Air Force support be used for under the large encirclement of the Eighth Route Army? The tactical results of the siege and counter-encirclement are only determined by the Lijiapo Heights!
"Baga!"
"Organize the attack again and capture the high ground within half an hour!" Captain Yamazaki ordered.
"Company Commander, the soldiers of the Second Company arrived to support." The third platoon leader stepped forward and shouted.
"Company Commander." With a bang, a soldier of the Second Company lay in the trench beside Chen Han and said quickly: "Our company commander asked me to convey to you that the Japanese surrounding the flanks have been eliminated, no thanks!"
"Thank you for your leg, please invite him to have a drink after the war!" Chen Han fired a gun at the Japanese devils and shot them away with one shot.
"Let your company commander come up with people, block the Japanese with both wings, and leave a mouth in the middle of me. I want to fight with the Japanese!" Chen Han shouted.
The war is now in a stalemate. With the second company's troops on top, the defense line can hold on for a while. However, the ammunition of the first company has been used almost enough, so I might as well play hard with the Japanese and wait for support while pulling.
What's more, once they launch hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese shells, they will be silent!
"Yes, company commander!" The correspondent of the second company agreed and turned around and left immediately. Now the high ground is in the hands of Chen Han's third battalion, and the main commander of the battlefield is naturally the first company commander. However, the support of the second company is already at the limit, and we will have to wait for the new first regiment next. Because the distance of the third company battalion is even further than that of the new first regiment.
"Dezi, please help me!" Chen Han turned around and shouted loudly.
Then, a suggested white trumpet stretched out of the trench, and the third platoon commander Zheng Dezi hid in the trench and shouted: "Listen to the Japanese captain Yamazaki, the company commander of the Eighth Route Army Cavalry Regiment Chen Zirong learned that you were born in a family of warriors and were proficient in swordsmanship. Company Commander Chen believed that the swordsmanship of your country were just the skin of Chinese swordsmanship. The title of master and apprentice was already concluded in the Tang Dynasty. If you cherish the honor of warriors, you stopped shooting and climbed to the high ground. Company Commander Chen was willing to conduct a formal duel with your sword. Company Commander Chen used the honor of soldiers to guarantee that if you were defeated by your sword, the Eighth Route Army Cavalry Company immediately stopped shooting and evacuated from the high ground."
