Xu Hu stood beside Zhou Weiguo and said,""Guild Leader, this is a good place for an ambush.”。
Zhou Weiguo patted Xu Hu's shoulder. This kid was a little careless, but he was usually very steady." You kid, I'm now the battalion commander of the independent battalion.”
"Alright! Hehehe!"
Xu Hu chuckled. He was no longer the commander of the 522nd Regiment of the Guo Army.
Right now, he was at most an independent battalion commander who fought alone, and he was severely lacking in manpower.
At this moment, the Second Company Commander, Zhao Shoutian, sat down and pointed at the terrain of One-Line-Sky.""Chief, no, Battalion Commander. This was a line of sky, but although this was the only way for the Japanese to reinforce the stronghold of Qifeng, it was not a place for them to go. However, the Japanese knew that the Japanese would pass through cautiously.”。
"Shoutian, do you mean that the Japanese will pass through One-Line-Sky in batches? Are you worried that the Japanese will leave like this?"
At this moment, Zhao Shoutian was quite surprised by Zhou Weiguo's new boss. As expected of the new boss who had defeated Boss Zhu. His mind was really agile." Not bad!”
Second Company Commander Zhao Shoutian nodded and said,"This is the only way for the Japanese to reinforce the Qifengkou stronghold. However, if the Japanese pass through One-Line-Sky in batches and we ambush them, won't we only be able to take a bite?”。
Zhou Weiguo smiled." Shoutian, you're right. However, there aren't many devils in Qifeng Stronghold right now. They're making use of the time to build fortifications. I reckon that the Tiger Head Mountain 8th Route Army Independent Regiment will soon attack Qifeng Pass. Under the fierce attack, the devils riding the wind would definitely urge the reinforcements to hurry over. " Plus, we've already said before that Frontline Sky is the only way for the Japanese reinforcements. If they pass through in batches, it will take too much time.”
After a pause, Zhou Weiguo continued,""Besides, even if the Japanese reinforcements knew that the frontline was a necessary route, they wouldn't have expected that someone would ambush them here. After all, the terrain of Frontline Sky was narrow. Although it was easy to be ambushed, the Japanese reinforcements were very close to Frontline Sky. In recent months, no one had ambushed the Japanese here, right?”
"No, Battalion Commander!" Shoutian Zhao said.
Pa!
Zhou Weiguo snapped his fingers and smiled."That's why the devils didn't expect that most of our Clear Wind Camp would be sent here to set up an ambush! Don't worry, sooner or later, the devils will rush to reinforce the devils at Qifeng Pass.”。
"I understand, Battalion Commander." Shoutian Zhao nodded.
Following Zhou Weiguo's orders, with Xu Hu's assistance, the newly formed 2nd Company of the Independent Battalion immediately dispersed.
Some of them planted mines a few kilometers in front of the frontline. Some of them followed Zhou Weiguo's method to build an anti-tank cone position with soil. The others moved the trees cut down around the mountain road to set up roadblocks. These were all appetizers before the ambush.
The devil quickly sent reinforcements. Zhou Weiguo believed that when the devil found that these things could not stop their advance, they would think that they were only stopping the small forces sent by the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment.
After that, the Japanese reinforcements would definitely advance quickly and reinforce the Japanese soldiers at Qifengkou Stronghold.
Zhou Weiguo and Xu Hu commanded and assisted the troops of the independent battalion's second company. They split the work and quickly completed all the preparations for the blockade.
Fortunately, there was no news of the 8th Route Army Independent Regiment attacking the devils at Qifengkou Stronghold. Therefore, after Zhou Weiguo and the others prepared the ambush position, they waited on the spot.
After all, he did not know when the 8th Route Army Independent Regiment would attack the Qifengkou stronghold.
However, according to the battle style of the 8th Route Army Independent Regiment, it was most advantageous to attack Qifeng at night.
On the one hand, it was close to night, suitable for the Eighth Route Army to attack the devils at Qifengkou. On the other hand, not long after the battle started, night fell, and the Japanese fighters were unlikely to be deployed.
It was night time, and the Japanese's fighter jets were firing and bombing the ground. It was impossible to compare the effectiveness of air support during the day.
However, what Zhou Weiguo did not expect was that the independent battalion, which had just been reorganized, would soon fight the Japanese for the first time.
Three hours after the preparation for the ambush in Frontline Sky was completed, it was 7 PM.
Near the Qifeng stronghold, in the Hutou Mountain Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment Field Command.
"Old Qiu, our Independent Regiment has completed the encirclement of Qifeng's stronghold!”Li Yong, the Chief of Staff of the Independent Regiment, said to Qiu Ming.
Qiu Ming, the commander of the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army in Hutou Mountain, was a forty-year-old man with a strong resolve.
The Japanese were building fortifications at Qifengkou. It was like a sharp knife stabbing into the heart of the Independent Regiment. It was very uncomfortable.
Now, the sharp knife of the Japanese wasn't too far off. Once there were one or two more squadrons of the Japanese in the Qifeng Stronghold, with the current strength of the Independent Regiment, it wouldn't be so easy to take them out when they sent troops.
Right now, they had no choice but to send out their troops and destroy the Qifeng stronghold.
"Good!"
Qiu Ming's eyes were resolute. He slammed the small table and pointed at the map on the table."It's 7:05 PM now. Order all the troops to provide cover fire in five minutes. Within an hour, take down the Qifeng stronghold. By the way, Old Li, has Xu Guangrong's company entered the defensive position?”。
"According to the time, they have already arrived at the ambush position. I reckon that they have already dug out the ambush position and are ready to stop the Japanese reinforcements at any time.”Li Yong pointed at the map and said to Qiu Ming.
"Good!"
"The attack on Qifeng's stronghold will begin in five minutes," said Qiu Ming.”。
"Yes, Guild Leader." The battalion commanders and company commanders of the independent regiment in the field command center all stood at attention and saluted.
This time, Qiu Ming's independent regiment from Tiger Head Mountain sent out a battalion and two companies. Together with Xu Guangrong's company, which was responsible for blocking, the total strength was close to 800 people.
There was a squadron of them at the Qifeng stronghold, with less than 200 soldiers.
However, the devils in Qifeng had built a turret and a few machine gun fortifications.
Based on the weapons and equipment allocated to a Japanese squadron, the Japanese at the Qifeng stronghold probably had six light machine guns and six grenade launchers.
In addition, Qiu Ming had sent out scouts to find out the exact weapon configuration of the Japanese in the stronghold. They found that the Japanese in Qifengkou had two Type 92 heavy machine guns and a Type 92 infantry cannon.
The fortifications and military strength of the stronghold were enough for Qiu Ming's independent regiment.
Time slowly passed. It was 7:10 in the afternoon.
As Qiu Ming personally aimed with the Hanyang rifle, he fired a shot and killed a Japanese sentry.
The siege of the 8th Route Army Independent Regiment on Mount Qifeng began. As soon as the battle began, the Independent Regiment launched a fierce attack on the devils in the stronghold.
In less than five minutes, they felt that the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment had sent troops to besiege the Qifengkou stronghold. The captain of the Japanese soldiers at the stronghold immediately called the Japanese soldiers closest to the Qifengkou stronghold to request reinforcements.
After learning that the stronghold was besieged by the 8th Route Army Independent Regiment at Hutou Mountain, the Japanese immediately sent a squadron of Japanese soldiers and a tank to the stronghold.
The commander of this Japanese squadron was Senior Captain Hiroshi Yamayama.
After learning that the Qifeng stronghold was besieged by the 8th Route Army, Zhu Ziming left a portion of his men in the Clear Wind Camp to guard the camp. He then brought the rest of the independent battalions to One-Line-Sky.
By the time Zhu Ziming and his men arrived at Clear Wind Camp, it was already 15 minutes later.
Zhu Ziming had just arrived at Frontline Sky with his men for less than 10 minutes, and the squadron on Guizi Mountain was already less than a few minutes away from Frontline Sky.
