At that time, the main forces left behind were Zhang Dabiao's 1st Battalion, the Air Defense Battalion, the Logistics Battalion, and the Tank Company.
However, all the troops were deployed in the south and east of the village.
In the direction of the mountain north of the village, there was less than half a platoon of infantry.
Although Zhao Gang had ordered the entire regiment to be on high alert, the order was mainly to guard the field position in the south of the village.
As well as the troops stationed in the east, south, and west of the village.
The platoon at the back of the mountain in the north of the village did not receive this order.
After all, Zhang Dabiao had just received the order and left. Even if he could pass it down, it wouldn't be so fast.
In addition, the soldiers 'attention was attracted by the explosions and gunshots coming from the south of the village.
Their vigilance towards the north of the village naturally relaxed.
The special forces under Yamamoto were the absolute elites selected from the Japanese elite field forces.
After his intensive training, his individual and team combat abilities were incomparable to ordinary soldiers.
With the cover of the night, they quietly sneaked behind the guards.
He suddenly launched an attack, using short knives, bayonet, and other cold weapons to finish off these dozen soldiers.
After dealing with the guards of the Independent Regiment in the north of the village, Yamamoto Ichiki immediately gave the order to attack.
More than 120 elite Japanese soldiers formed three assault teams under the cover of the night.
They cooperated with each other and launched a raid into the village at the fastest speed.
Originally, Yamamoto Ichiki wanted to use the same method and use cold weapons to end the battle as much as possible. He wanted to sneak into the independent regiment's headquarters and catch the people inside unprepared.
Unexpectedly, just as they entered the north of the village.
Suddenly, a bullet was fired from a thatched roof on the left side of the village road.
One of the elite soldiers was hit in the head by a bullet and fell to the ground.
The other two Japanese soldiers who were with him immediately opened fire at the roof of the latrine.
He used a precise shot to kill the hidden sentry of the independent regiment.
However, the gunshot exposed their whereabouts.
It was obviously impossible to sneak into the village again.
Therefore, all the devils stopped hiding their tracks and rushed into the village at a faster speed.
Although Zhao Gang did not have much actual combat experience, he was a cautious person and did things steadily.
When they had set up the sentry posts, they had specially added one or two hidden sentries at the entrances in all directions of the village.
It was such a small and inconspicuous move.
They avoided the disaster of the regiment headquarters.
Zhao Gang, who was in the regiment headquarters, and Zhang Dabiao, who had just left the village and hadn't gone far, heard the sound of the gunshot.
Zhang Dabiao suddenly turned around and said with a shocked expression,""Not good, there's a situation!"
After saying that, he led the two soldiers and ran back.
When they passed by the south exit of the village, they immediately ordered a company to follow them into the village to protect the regiment headquarters.
As for the air defense battalion, the supply battalion, and the tank company deployed in the east and west of the village, they also heard gunshots.
However, they had yet to figure out what was going on, so they only went on alert and sent people to contact the regiment headquarters. They did not enter the village.
At that time, there was only one platoon of guards from the 1st Battalion responsible for guarding the compound of the regiment headquarters. The number of soldiers was about 40.
Although Zhao Gang was also shocked, he was still calm.
He immediately summoned the platoon leader and said decisively,"Platoon Leader Wang, there must be enemies sneaking in.
Take some men and guard the gate and backyard of the regiment headquarters. Machine Gunners, go up the wall. The rest of the soldiers, guard the gate. Open fire immediately if you see the enemy!”
"Yes, sir!" The platoon leader immediately raised his pistol and led his men to set up a defense.
This was because the main forces of the 1st Battalion were deployed at the other entrances of the village.
Therefore, Yamamoto Ichiki and the others did not encounter any decent resistance or interception. They quickly arrived at the front and back of the regiment headquarters and surrounded Zhao Gang and the others.
The security platoon was just about ready for battle, and both sides immediately opened fire.
Although the machine gunners of the guard platoon were on high ground, they opened fire first and killed some of the Japanese.
However, they were quickly counterattacked by the Japanese. These Japanese were very accurate.
With the submachine guns in their hands, several of the machine gunners of the guard platoon were shot one after another and fell from the roof and courtyard wall.
Then, many of the Japanese decisively took off the grenades hanging in front of their chests and threw them into the independent regiment's compound.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Many of the guards who didn't have time to dodge were hit by the explosion and fell into a pool of blood.
Zhao Gang, who was just about to return to his room and call the air defense camp and the logistics camp to get them to return to the reinforcement regiment, couldn't help but stare in shock.
He immediately pulled out his gun and rushed over.
He led the remaining soldiers and engaged in a fierce exchange of fire with the Japanese soldiers swarming in from outside the courtyard.
The Japanese had the advantage in numbers, and they were all equipped with Thomas submachine guns and other American automatic firearms.
Therefore, Zhao Gang and the others fought very hard. People kept getting shot and falling.
At the critical moment, Zhang Dabiao brought a company that had been temporarily transferred back from the southern village and arrived in time.
They attacked the Japanese from the outside.
The 1st Battalion was equipped with Garand semi-automatic rifles, and their firepower was not much weaker than Yamamoto's special agent team.
However, this company first divided half of the platoon to guard the north of the village, and then divided another platoon to serve as a guard platoon for the regiment headquarters.
There were only sixty to seventy people who had rushed back with Zhang Dabiao as reinforcements. They still did not have the advantage in terms of numbers.
Moreover, the Independent Regiment had more recruits and lacked training. In terms of tactical cooperation, they were not as good as the Yamamoto Special Agent Team.
In addition, Yamamoto Ichiki was very calm.
Immediately, a small combat team of about thirty to forty people turned their guns to stop them.
He personally commanded the other two combat teams to continue attacking Zhao Gang and the others in the regiment headquarters.
As the fierce battle continued, more than half of the soldiers around Zhao Gang were killed or injured. They were forced to retreat to the main buildings of the regiment headquarters, such as the war room, and put up a desperate fight.
At the same time, Chen Liang, Chu Yunfei, and the rest led the guards to the east of the Wang Fortress, near the river.
The Japanese didn't take the east side of the village as their main attack direction, so there were less than 500 Japanese soldiers stationed here to block the area.
The Japanese were alerted by the sound of gunfire and explosions and were on guard.
However, they were mainly guarding against the direction of the Wang Fortress Village.
He wasn't very vigilant behind him.
Originally, Chen Liang had planned to use the firepower of the artillery company to sneak attack these devils.
However, when he realized that there were gunshots coming from the village in front of him, Chen Liang, who was shocked, decisively ordered his troops to attack.
At this time, time did not allow Chen Liang to make his arrangements calmly.
They had to defeat the devils in front of them as soon as possible and rush back to the village to provide support.
