At the same time, Li Jiapo!
Yamazaki showed no fear in the face of the Eighth Route Army's pincer attack. This was also the scene he hoped to see in his heart. Smoke filled the Li Jiapo position.
Li Jiapo's terrain was steep, like a giant bowl, easy to defend and difficult to attack. With the geographical advantage, Yamazaki had set up his battle formation in the center of the hillside platform.
Yamazaki used the method of self-entanglement, so that the Japanese army would die and then live, so that the Japanese army had nowhere to escape, only to fight to the death with the Eighth Route Army. Yamazaki believed that the two strong met and the brave won.
Yamazaki believed that the Japanese soldiers he led would definitely be able to hold out until the arrival of reinforcements. His central compass tactic would definitely win.
At this moment, the second lieutenant of the R Corps came forward and said to Yamazaki," Sir, we've been surrounded.”
Yamazaki smiled disapprovingly. As long as we defend this high ground, the reinforcements will form a huge encirclement on the outside.
It would devour the enemy's main force in one bite. Second Lieutenant, save your strength. We still have to launch a counterattack. Do you understand?"
"Yes, sir!"
After hearing Yamazaki's words, the second lieutenant of the R Corps was reassured and continued to urge the Japanese to build fortifications.
An informant from the R Corps ran over from behind and reported to Yamazaki.
"Sir, General Shinozuka is calling. General Shinozuka sent a message. The Sixteenth Brigade and the Fourth Brigade of the Ninth Army were on their way! The air force has already taken off!"
Yamazaki's confidence was boosted after hearing that. He raised his sword and shouted,""Fire! Open fire!"
Blind Cheng's assault troops had just rushed up the steep slope. As soon as they showed their heads, they fell down in rows like wheat being harvested!
The battle had lasted for half a day, and the hillside was already covered with the corpses of the Eighth Route Army. The wounded and stretchers kept passing by Blind Cheng. Blind Cheng's expression was extremely heavy!
When Yamazaki saw the tragic deaths of a large number of the 8th Route Army soldiers and the success of his central blooming tactic, he laughed from the bottom of his heart. He was waiting for the external troops to arrive quickly and work together with him to successfully annihilate the 8th Route Army.
"Ding, ding, ding!"
At the foot of the Li family's slope.
Blind Cheng had just received the brigade commander's order for the 772nd regiment to withdraw from their position and hand over the work to Li Yunlong's independent regiment. He was extremely unconvinced. Brigadier general, please give our regiment another chance. I will definitely take down Li Jiapo this time.
What? Li Yunlong again! Why did all the good things always belong to him! Our regiment attacked for 8 hours! More than half of the Yamazaki Battalion had already suffered casualties! If they let the independent regiment attack at this time, wouldn't they be letting them get what they wanted? Brigadier General, I don't understand!
Due to the urgency of the battle, the brigade commander did not have time to explain to Blind Cheng."If you can't figure it out, take your time! To execute orders! Let's talk about it after the war!"
Military orders were like mountains, so Blind Cheng could no longer be stubborn.
Yes, carry out the order and retreat!
While Blind Cheng was retreating, the other troops of the Independent Regiment had already begun to enter their positions. Li Yunlong stood at the edge of the trench and pointed at the soldiers of the 772nd Regiment who had retreated. He smiled and said,
"Let me tell you, Blind Cheng, I'll teach him how to fight the same way I taught him how to shoot. Stand at the foot of the hill and learn!”
Looking at his expression, it was needless to say how proud he was.
"Right now, the First Platoon is retreating. It's time for our Independent Regiment to attack.”Li Yun Long observed the battlefield and said.
"Blind Cheng, that kid, he's really stupid." Li Yunlong said disdainfully. How could he charge forward in such a terrain? What a joke.
All you know is charging, charging my ass. Today, I'll let him experience what war is like. Humph, fighting with me for the main attack?
In the past, I taught him how to shoot. Now, I'm teaching him how to fight. He was not unconvinced. If he wanted Old Li to fight, he was stronger than him.”
At this moment, the Independent Regiment had already taken over the position.
Yamazaki, who was guarding Li Jiapo, gasped. He had finally repelled another attack from his opponent.
The attack this time was so fierce that he almost thought he couldn't take it. As long as they could hold on for another three hours, reinforcements would arrive.
At this moment, the battlefield appeared silently. For some reason, Yamazaki suddenly felt that something was wrong on the battlefield. He felt uneasy for some reason, and his body trembled for some reason. Then, goosebumps appeared on his body.
This was not a good sign for Yamazaki. It was a fear that he did not know why. As far as he was concerned, the sensitivity of his profession made him believe that during a war, there should not be peace on the battlefield.
The silence made the Japanese soldiers feel a chill in their hearts. Soldiers disliked the silence of the battlefield the most. The battlefield should not be so cold, because the silence on the battlefield often contained greater danger, indicating that the battle was more intense.
More than half of the Yamazaki Battalion had already suffered casualties. He did not care about the casualties. He knew that the reinforcements were closing in on him. With the favorable terrain, sufficient ammunition, and close air support, it would not be a problem for them to hold on for another two days.
He hoped to rely on his own brigade to firmly attract the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and then wait for the reinforcements to close the anti-encirclement circle, and then bloom in the middle.
He longed to make a name for himself in the Battle of Li Jiapo.
