The tank squadron that could turn the tide of the battlefield was destroyed by the howitzers from the weakest turret position.
The strongest firepower of the 4th Brigade, the Field Artillery Battalion, was bombarded for a few minutes. Even the mountains were flattened. Not to mention the soldiers of the Artillery Battalion, even the rats could not survive the bombardment.
Finally, it was the command center of the 4th Company. There was the regiment commander Katayama Shoutarou and a large group of assistant officers and staff officers. At this moment, there were at least a dozen Type 92 Mountain Cannons firing at the mountain.
Who could withstand this?
The barrage had been going on for a few minutes, but the artillery fire still showed no signs of stopping.
How many shells did the 8th Route Army have?
Could it be that they had destroyed the ammunition depots of the North China army?
……
In Ashen Cloud Ridge, Li Yunlong stuffed the box cannon into his belt and picked up Sakata Shingtseu's Sakura katana. He took it out and looked at it." Big Biao, look at how many big fish we caught in this net."”
"Regiment commander, the big fish of the Sakata United Team are all here. There's one colonel, two lieutenants, and one major lieutenants. We've completely wiped out the headquarters of the Sakata United Team.”
"Reporting to Guild Leader."
At this moment, the signalman ran over." The brigade headquarters has instructed us to retreat to Yujialing immediately. The 771st and 772nd regiments will take turns to cover us.”
"Retreat?"
Li Yunlong's face turned stiff." I've already taken out the Sakata United Command. The initiative of the war is now in my hands. Why should we retreat?"”
" Brothers, follow me down the mountain. Nobutetsu Sakata, that old fellow, is already dead. The command of the Sakata United Team will definitely be in a mess. Let's chase after the Japanese. Beat them down the mountain and make them wet their pants!”
Zhang Dabiao quickly stopped Li Yunlong, who was a little annoyed." Regiment Commander, you are disobeying the orders of your superiors.”
"Then report to the higher-ups immediately. We have taken down the command center of the Sakata United Army and killed Lieutenant Sakata. The new regiment is determined to pursue the fleeing Japanese from the front and expand the results of the battle.”
He patted Zhang Dabiao's chest." Dabiao, you're good in every way, but you fight by the rules too much. Let me tell you, you're not as good as Meng Liang in this aspect. As a general, if you can't adapt to the situation, the opportunity will be fleeting.”
"Yes, Regiment Commander. I'll send the message now.”
"Regiment Commander, the Japanese are coming. There are at least two large groups of Japanese coming at us.”
Li Yunlong looked shocked." This Sakata United is indeed the elite of the Japanese. Their command center was destroyed by us, but their morale hasn't been reduced."”
"Quick, let's charge out from the front. They're just here to reinforce the command center of the old devil Sakata like crazy. We'll have to run away immediately if we take advantage of them. If we're late, they'll reorganize their attack and we'll be in trouble.”
"Yes."
On the other side, Li Yun Long had just rushed to the front of the slope when he saw a dense group of yellow-skinned devils in military uniforms. They were converging with at least two regiments of puppet troops and pouncing on the Gray Cloud Ridge.
"Big Biao, this isn't right. Why are there so many Buttfaces?”
Just as Zhang Dabiao was about to make a sound, he heard a long shriek.
"Cannon attack."
"Everyone, hide."
Without any explanation, he hugged Li Yunlong and fell to the ground.
Then, he was pushed away by Li Yunlong.
"Zhang Dabiao, you son of a b * tch, didn't you see that the shells were falling towards the opposite direction?”
Zhang Dabiao got up and saw that the Japanese soldiers hundreds of meters away had been bombarded by the rain of artillery shells. There were broken corpses everywhere. The two large groups of Japanese soldiers who had charged at the front had hundreds of people, but more than half of them had been blown up by the artillery shells that had lasted for two to three minutes.
"Regiment commander, where did the artillery support come from?”
"Who cares where the artillery fire came from? Brothers, follow me and chase after the Japanese.”
"Kill!"
A new group of nearly 2000 soldiers rushed down the hill and headed straight for the Japanese troops.
Nearly 3000 Japanese soldiers, 3000 puppet soldiers, and almost 6000 mixed enemy soldiers were actually pushed back by the new regiment from the mountainside to the foot of the mountain with the support of long-range artillery fire.
"Dabiao, why do you think these cannonballs are falling on the Japanese?”Li Yunlong was rushing a little anxiously. He stood on the hillside and panted heavily.
"Regiment commander, I think it's most likely that the truck battalion is doing something big. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to support us with their artillery fire.”
"Car Battalion?"
Old Li's eyes were as big as a cow's." That's impossible. There were at least a few hundred cannonballs just now. If it was really that prodigal Meng Liang, I wouldn't have punished him.”
Zhang Dabiao smiled casually." Commander, I think you won't be able to bear to see him help us cripple the 4th Brigade.”
"I can't bear to…"
Old Li was also suspicious." You said that the Sakata United Team is obviously stronger than us. Why did they retreat in a hurry?”
"Buzz…"
On the road in the distance, the sound of tracks rolling on the ground suddenly came. There were also a large number of warhorses chasing after the puppet army with the might of shaking the earth and mountains.
Old Li and Big Biao stood on the hillside, dumbfounded.
"All of them are armored troops and a few hundred cavalrymen. Regiment commander…some of them are wearing our Eighth Route Army uniform.”
