"Nani? Where did the gunfire come from?"

Ura Tomosaburo was stunned.

Not only Ura Tomosaburo, but also Sakata Nobutetsu in the headquarters was stunned.

Soon, a Japanese second lieutenant rushed in from the outside. He saluted the two men and reported: "Report to the captain and chief of staff, it is the Chinese army that has launched an attack on us."

"The Chinese army launched an attack on us?"

Nobuyuki Sakata suspected that there was something wrong with his ears and he heard wrongly.

"Hiyi!"

The Japanese second lieutenant paused and responded.

"Interesting! I really want to know who the commander of the Eighth Route Army is and what he is thinking in his head.

Please inform me that this Eighth Route Army commander must be captured alive!"

The corners of Sakata Nobutsu's mouth rose slightly, with a hint of ridicule. He did not think that the counterattack of the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army could pose any threat to him. In his opinion, the opponent was just a last struggle before death and was seeking his own death.

.

…

At the forward position, amidst the loud sound of the charging horn, the soldiers of the new regiment roared towards the enemy's position like tigers descending the mountain.

"Nani? What's going on?"

For a time, the Japanese Third Battalion, which was deployed at the front and prepared to launch an attack, was caught off guard.

Taking this opportunity, the first battalion of the Eighth Route Army soldiers fought hard and braved the enemy's bullets, rushing into the enemy's position and engaging the Japanese in hand-to-hand combat.

The 1st Battalion Commander Zhang Dabiao was originally an officer of the 29th Army Sword Team of the National Army. He was proficient in swordsmanship and passed down the swordsmanship.

At this time, these Eighth Route Army soldiers did not lose at all when fighting with the little Japanese with bayonets.

Among them, Zhang Dabiao took the lead. A big sword danced like a tiger in his hand, and soon several Japanese soldiers died tragically under his sword.

Under his leadership, the soldiers of the first battalion burst out with high fighting spirit, killing the little Japanese until they staggered around and were completely defeated.

Suffering a crushing defeat and being caught off guard, the Japanese Third Battalion could only retreat temporarily.

"Brothers, kill me!!!"

Zhang Dabiao chased after him waving the sword with a curled blade in his hand.

"Thud, tug, tug, tug, tug..."

Suddenly, a large barrage of bullets poured out, causing smoke and dust to rise on the ground, temporarily separating the enemy and ourselves.

Several soldiers who rushed in front were shot in the chest and fell down one after another unwillingly.

This is a Type 92 heavy machine gun.

The Type 92 heavy machine gun was the most famous heavy machine gun of the Japanese army during World War II. This gun was launched based on the Hotchkiss machine gun.

The body and barrel of the gun are covered with heat sinks, and it uses higher-precision 7.7mm bullets with a rate of fire of 500 rounds per minute, making it extremely powerful on the battlefield.

Its empty weight is 27.6 kg, the gun frame is 27.7 kg, and the total weight is 55.3 kg.

"Damn it!"

Seeing that the first battalion's attack was blocked, Li Yunlong was so angry that he cursed loudly.

Attacking requires one go at a time. Once frustrated, it is extremely difficult to reorganize, especially when the enemy is strong and we are weak.

But now, the Jaap's heavy machine gun is deployed 600 meters away. It is almost impossible to destroy it without using grenades or mortars.

Even if a soldier is lucky enough to kill the opponent's shooter with one shot, the opponent's secondary shooter can immediately take over.

However, just when Li Yunlong stared at the heavy machine gun and wanted to destroy it with his eyes, a burst of fire suddenly rose from the ground.

But I saw that the two Japanese machine gunners were blown away even with their guns.

Immediately afterwards, a huge explosion sound reached Li Yunlong's ears.

"Where did the shells come from?"

Li Yunlong was a little confused. He didn't believe that his eyes could destroy the Japanese heavy machine gun.

The guard Huzi on the side said: "The leader, Zhuzi, is Wang Chengzhu!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Chengzhu ran over with the mortar still smoking from the muzzle: "Captain, what are you doing standing still? Hurry up and continue the charge!"

Are you teaching me how to do things?

Although Li Yunlong was happy to destroy the Japanese machine gun positions, Wang Chengzhu's actions made Li Yunlong very dissatisfied.

Of course, it's not because Wang Chengzhu taught Li Yunlong how to do things, but because there are only two mortar shells left in total, and now that one is used, there is only one left.

Wang Chengzhu seemed to see through Li Yunlong's thoughts, and immediately said: "Don't worry, commander, as long as you enter the shooting range, I guarantee that one shot will penetrate the soul and send old devil Sakata to see the King of Hell!"

"If you can't blow up Sakata's headquarters, let's see how I deal with you!"

As a qualified commander, Li Yunlong certainly knew that fighter opportunities were fleeting. Otherwise, he would have to kick Wang Chengzhu first.

Immediately, Li Yunlong gave the order to continue the attack: "Continue to attack!"

From the time when the Japanese machine gunners opened fire and intercepted the first battalion to when Wang Chengzhu opened fire and blew it up, it seemed like a long time, but in fact, less than a minute passed.

Taking advantage of the Japanese army's retreat, Zhang Dabiao continued to use his troops to cover up the enemy. Finally, when the Japanese army stabilized their formation, they advanced 500 meters.

The headquarters of the Sakata Regiment was already within the range of the mortars.

"Hurry up and kill Sakata for me!"

Seeing Wang Chengzhu taking aim, Li Yunlong couldn't wait to urge him.

I'm anxious. Li Yunlong is really anxious.

The New Regiment is now besieged in Cangyun Ridge. If the headquarters of the Bantian Regiment cannot be eliminated and it loses unified and effective command, it will be difficult to break out.

Wang Chengzhu, who possesses perfect artillery skills, took aim and loaded the weapon calmly.

"Boom!"

The shell left a cloud of choking smoke at the muzzle and then flew out of the gun.

The next second, the shell seemed to have eyes. After drawing an arc in the air, it landed at the headquarters of the Sakata Regiment with great precision.

"Boom!"

There was an explosion, and in the light of the fire, the tent of the Japanese headquarters was torn apart by the shock wave, and the erected antenna was also affected, and fell down under the load.

"Well done!"

"Zhuzi, after you break out of the siege, I will reward you with a pound of sweet potatoes to burn... no, two pounds..."

"Brothers, break out and charge!"

Li Yunlong completely forgot that Wang Chengzhu wasted artillery shells on the machine gun position, and showed a rare act of generosity.

He raised his arms and took the lead in charging.

Now that the headquarters of the Sakata Regiment has been destroyed and the commander of the Sakata Regiment has been killed, there will inevitably be problems with the command system of the entire Sakata Regiment, which will lead to the loss of unified and effective command among the various units and the inability to coordinate operations. Naturally, they will break out.

Perfect timing.

Otherwise, even if the Sakata Regiment is destroyed at the headquarters, by the time the Japs react, it will be almost impossible to break through with the new group's current strength.

"Come on!"

"Kill!"

The morale of the new group of soldiers was greatly boosted. They charged and fought fiercely all the way, shooting or using grenades, constantly defeating the Japanese.

Some soldiers fired all the bullets in their guns and directly picked up the weapons abandoned by the Japanese on the ground...
