Chapter 406 The night is too dark

I walked for another day and had just set up a defensive position tonight.

Just lay down and went to bed.

The mortar shells from the 123rd Brigade were smashed heavily into the temporary camp.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of charge sounded in three directions.

As soon as a series of bunkers opened fire and fought back, they encountered double attacks from Italian mortars and M2 heavy machine guns.

In the night, all the firepower points in the outer positions were paralyzed.

Finally organized the artillery and just fought back.

The opponent stopped fighting and fired flares and could not see anything. I knew whether the shelling was effective. It was so dark in the night and I didn’t dare to send troops to chase him. Only a large number of wounded soldiers were left, wailing in the camp, constantly shouting for help and asking for mothers.

Stew a pot of steel broth for the Japanese.

It was Zhou Xiaoshan, a bastard, who said when he was reviewing the Songhu Sand Table.

The clouds were thick tonight, and the night was so dark.

The number of flares carried is really limited and cannot support the large troops to attack for a long time, so it is better not to use it.

He was also worried about the night attack and was worried that the casualties would be too great, and he was despised by two bastards in the first, second and second brigades.

Just concentrate on the firepower and deal with him a few times. When Fo Xiao is on the way, then look at the situation of the Fifth Brigade and decide whether to attack.

Sure enough, it was too dark, not only did I dare not attack, but I didn't even dare to send troops out to fight back.

The arrangements that were originally going to annihilate the Japanese attack team were useless.

He found that the Japanese were still doing something, so he put the cordon from one kilometer to two kilometers, and simply made up his mind to use submachine guns to rush all the Japanese who had expanded their guards.

Today's night was too dark, and the clouds blocked all the night. The Fifth Brigade still dared not attack.

Luo Jialie was smiling and leaning backwards.

Luo Jialie bombarded the first time, afraid that the Japanese would hide in the fortifications.

It is not easy for the Sichuan army's horses to carry shells from Sichuan with great effort. Even the rich man in Zhou Xiaoshan dared to fire five shots.

So the second and third times, the Italian mortars and M2 heavy machine guns were organized, and the Maxim heavy machine gun was covered by feint attacks.

Almost all the firepower of resistance was knocked out.

Anyway, the ammunition has been consumed a lot, and I don’t know the results of the battle.

Night battles are really a good way to deal with the Japanese army.

The Japanese without air support were like tigers that had lost their sharp claws. They had set up five positions for their own mortars and forced the Japanese artillery. The Japanese army in the camp could only judge the direction and distance by the flames. The counterattacking artillery fire was all hit on the positions that the 66th Division had just transferred.

On the contrary, their gun positions seemed to have been dropped by the moving gun camp.

With this style of play, the Fifth Brigade is by no means an opponent of the 1, 2, and 3 Brigades.

Unfortunately, the night was too short, and during the day, they could only hide, harass them with landmines and a small number of troops, and drag the Japanese army to speed up.

When it was dawn, the Japanese did not find out what was going on, so they quickly covered the troops and artillery.

I was afraid that the plane would come early in the morning.

He really thought about it.

When it was just dawn, ten planes took off from Pingjin Airport, and those who departed in Peking went to Xinkou battlefield.

All those who took off in Tianjin came toward the direction of the wife.

Not only do they have to escort the 20th Division, they also have to rescue the Fifth Brigade, which suffered heavy losses last night.

The 123rd Brigade fought all night, and Fumisaburo Kawakishiro who was in charge of the battlefield in southeastern Shanxi and Seishiro Itagaki who was in charge of the battle in Shanxi almost didn't sleep all night.

The Fifth Brigade suffered much heavier losses than Luo Jialie imagined. Even the brigade commander died in the shelling. Now a chief of staff of Mashan Daiming was replacing the command.

After the plane arrived, the entire army retreated and left a large amount of baggage. Under the cover of the plane, the Fifth Brigade immediately retreated to the front line of Liushuzhuang, which was operated a few days ago.

Luo Jialie, who didn't know the result of the battle last night, was very glad that the troops had hidden themselves in time.

The night was too dark and it was difficult to start. The night attacks of the 123rd Brigade this night were really no casualties, it was nothing more than ammunition consumption.

Will you smash people with the arms produced from the ocean soon? The Japanese will do it, and I will do it.

It feels so good.

The Japanese plane flew over the battlefield at around 8 o'clock.

Not only did the 123rd Brigade see the Japanese planes rampantly searching for the 66th Division, but even Zhou Xiaoshan also saw the Japanese planes.

Fumisaburo Kawakishiki, after the telegrams he received all night last night, he also understood.

The most terrifying thing about this opponent is not an ambush battle, but a night attack at night.

The 15th Brigade, the Fifth Brigade, was encountered, and the situation of ambushing by the Sichuan Army was far from being severe when it was attacked at night.

The planes at Pingjin Airport have been divided into two batches, trying to increase the time of air stagnation as much as possible. The Beiping Airport even dispatched five aircraft to specifically escort the 122nd Brigade of the 20th Division.

Pass the road to Gu'an as soon as possible and fight the opponent as soon as possible.

The camp area of ​​the camp was expanded at night and the soldiers and ammunition were evacuated as much as possible. The opponent's mortar range was only more than 2,000 meters.

Even if it is a night attack, it can effectively organize defense.

The 20th Division resumed its formation when attacking Niangzi Pass.

The vanguards who opened the road on both sides were escorted from two brigades, crossing mountains and escorting the road, and turned into a cavalry gang that had not been fully repaired.

The chariot squadron took the lead, and the Gao Boxer Regiment followed closely behind. The baggage corps, artillery corps, and the Shanxia brigade with one less corps were cut off.

When it was dawn, they drove in full speed towards Gu'an Town. They tried to find a good view to camp at night.

Fumisaburo Kawakishima's 20th Division moved.

A big stone in Zhou Xiaoshan's heart finally landed on the ground.

What made him even happier was that the dense clouds yesterday were blown away by the north wind.

Today the sun shines brightly and cloudless.

If this heavy army group is killed, the Chinese and Japanese forces in southeastern Shanxi will be reversed, and there will be no worries about the war in Shanxi.

As long as the Sixty-Sixth Division guards Niangzi Pass, Yan Laoxi will stop Xinkou, and the roof of North China is in the hands of the Chinese. You can look down at Hebei at any time and even counterattack Pingjin. Whether the Japanese army goes south along the Jinpu Line or the Zhengtai Line to attack Shandong, you can stab him in the back hard.

The Japanese army came very quickly this time.

The Cavalry Battalion, Artillery Battalion, and Heavy Machine Gun Battalion took a day and a night of rest.

They were like little tigers, mobilized by Zhou Xiaoshan's passionate battle and screamed incitement.

Destroying the 20th Division, fighting out of the Niangzi Pass, and heading towards Hebei became the biggest wish of the Sichuan Army soldiers.

Zhou Xiaoshan was very glad that Chen Hu was sent to the vanguard by Feng Tiankui.

He asked Zhou Xiaoshan to be responsible for the general detonation. He personally led two platoon leaders of the engineering company and several squad leaders to guard the trenches covered by dead grass on both sides of the road, waiting for the enemy to arrive, waiting for Zhou Xiaoshan to detonate without success, and detonate the backup detonation line.

This area is all gentle, with a slightly undulating place more than two kilometers away from the highway.

The first, second and second brigade dug the third line of trenches along both sides of the highway.

The above is covered with wooden boards and soil, and the dead grass is hidden, which is very effective.

Zhou Xiaoshan opened his eyes wide, holding a telescope and looking around in the trench.

There is absolutely no abnormality here from the road.

But Fumisaburo Kawakishiwa became more and more nervous as he walked, because the journey was too quiet.

There were several villages passing through, all of which were empty.

There is even no sign of fire.

The Cavalry Regiment has been going back and forth repeatedly in the road ahead.
