Although Long Wenzhang only led one regiment, their firepower was several times that of the 196th Division.
After charging into the camp, they charged forward with unstoppable momentum. No one could stop their charge.
Wang Decai managed to escape back to the command center under the protection of the guards. However, before he could sit still, he received news that two positions had been lost, one regiment had been completely wiped out, and another regiment had been defeated.
"How is this possible?" Wang Decai shouted in shock," They only have one team. How long has it been? How could they have eaten so many of my men?"”
He shouted at his subordinates,"You bunch of trash! Don't forget that you're the Huangpu Army, the best army in China!" You can't even defeat Zhang Sen and that bunch of trash from the Northeast Army. Do you have any shame?”
"Sir, we also want to fight properly!" the chief of staff shouted with a long face. However, this battle was impossible to fight. The difference in strength was too great. Have you ever seen a motley crew with American submachine guns? Have you ever seen a motley crew bombarded by dozens of cannons?”
"Our brothers can't hold on. You can't blame us for being incompetent!”
Wang Decai was so angry that he wanted to curse, but at this moment, an officer came to report that the Northeast Army had already leaped over the battle line and was charging towards them.
The corner of Wang Decai's eyes twitched wildly. Even the formation could not stop the Northeast Army. If they stayed here, they would only die.
"All troops, retreat to Xifeng Pass immediately!”Wang Decai ordered helplessly.
At this time, Lorie had just arrived at the Xifeng Pass area with the main force of the new division.
Lorie wasn't as crazy as Long Wenzhang. He was good at fighting steadily.
The new division was well-equipped with cannons and heavy machine guns, so there was no need for him to take the risk and attack.
"Get the artillery ready. Second Regiment, Third Regiment, prepare to attack!”Lorie gave a strict order," The 4th Regiment will attack from the middle. Once the enemies are distracted by the 2nd and 3rd Regiment, the 4th Regiment will attack from the middle.”
The various troops quickly began to mobilize. The soldiers did not care about their fatigue. They wiped off their sweat and prepared to attack.
The cannon regiment that Long Wen Zhang brought was an independent cannon regiment that had just been formed, while Lorie's cannon regiment was the old team of the new division, with 20 heavy cannons.
The 59th Division stationed at Xifeng Pass was also urgently mobilized. Division Commander Zhang Yiao personally came to the front line to command the battle.
"Damn it, Zhang Sen actually dared to attack Xifeng Pass. He really wants to rebel.”
Zhang Yi 'ao spat,"But my Xifeng Pass is not something you can attack just because you want to."”
"Pass down my order, strictly guard all the passes. Don't let a single rebel come up!”Zhang Yiao shouted.
In the trenches, the soldiers of the 59th Division were already lying on the ground, ready to fight.
"These rebels are really courting death. Grandpa will blow up a few more of your heads later.”a veteran said excitedly.
Another veteran handed him two grenades.""These people are not simple. They just defeated the Japanese. He held the grenade and waited for them to get close.”
" Hmph!" The veteran from before snorted." If it was Grandpa who fought, he would still chase away the Japanese. This is nothing at all!"”
At this moment, Lorie gave the order to fire.
The artillery regiment of the new division went all out. Large caliber artillery shells roared and smashed into the Xifeng Pass camp, instantly turning the entire Xifeng Pass into a sea of fire.
Many soldiers sprawled on the ground were inexplicably blown into minced meat.
The large-caliber artillery shells even razed some of the positions to the ground, burying all the soldiers hiding inside.
The 59th Division was stunned. Zhang Yiao was stunned. He never expected the Northeast Army to be so aggressive.
The artillery fire was especially fierce. The Ministry of Military Affairs of the National Government had just calculated that there were only about 500 cannons that could be used in the country. There were almost no heavy artillery.
However, Zhang Yiao could feel that his troops were being bombarded by heavy artillery.
"Where did these Northeastern soldiers get such good cannons? This is impossible!" Zhang Yi 'ao shouted in anger.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The artillery shells landed at Xifeng Pass, tearing the camp into several pieces within twenty minutes.
Lorie stood at the foot of the mountain and calmly watched the battlefield. She was like an expert gambler, her face always maintaining a calm that the enemy could not fathom.
"Sir, the enemy has almost been bombed. Shouldn't our troops charge?”the chief of staff reminded.
Lorie shook her head and calmly said," There's no rush. Let the cannon fire for a while longer." By depleting their strength, the infantrymen would have an easier time attacking.”
Just like that, another 20 minutes passed. The Xifeng Pass camp was almost destroyed. The 59th Division suffered countless casualties. There was even a regiment that only had 50 or so people left. The rest were all killed.
Seeing that the time was right, Lorie immediately ordered the 2nd and 3rd regiments to attack.
The second and third regiments were already prepared. After receiving the order, they immediately rushed to the Xifeng Pass position from both sides.
The soldiers of the 59th Division immediately climbed out of the trenches to resist. However, their strength had been greatly reduced after being baptized by the artillery fire. Even if they went all out, it would be difficult for them to block the attack of the 2nd and 3rd regiments.
"4th Regiment Charge!" Lorie said coldly,"Break through the middle and destroy the enemy."”
"Kill!"
The soldiers of the Fourth Regiment held their guns and roared as they charged into the Xifeng Pass camp.
Most of the 59th Division's forces were held back by the 2nd and 3rd Regiment, so the 4th Regiment did not encounter any resistance and easily broke through the defense line.
Once they broke through, they would immediately surround the 59th Division.
The 59th Division was completely surrounded by enemies. Zhang Yiao could not retreat in time even if he wanted to.
Two hours later, Zhang Yiao had no choice but to surrender. The Xifeng Pass camp was now under the control of the Northeast Army.
"Contact the division commander!" "Tell him that we have taken down Xifeng Pass," Lorie said seriously. The first section of the Great Wall is already under our control!”
