And it will take at least ten minutes to wait for the flames on the hillside to extinguish. During this period of time, they could only watch helplessly as the transport team in the valley was wiped out bit by bit by the Eighth Route Army ambushing on both sides of the valley.
At this time, dozens of kilometers away, at the Itagaki Division headquarters in Laiyuan County, the division commander Seishiro Itagaki stared at the map of Pingxing Pass with an ashen face.
"Hasn't the Jinsui Army been retreating all the time? Why did a Chinese army suddenly appear here in large numbers, trapping our entire transportation brigade in the valley." Seishiro Itagaki said coldly.
He is in his forties, but he looks very young, like someone in his thirties. His eyes are piercing and his eyebrows are as sharp as a peak.
When he said these words, his brows almost rose to his forehead, and his saliva flew directly onto the face of the division staff officer.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, this Chinese army is not Yan's Jinsui Army, but the Eighth Route Army of the Red Party. They have reached a cooperation agreement before and united to fight against us." The staff officer did not dare to wipe his face. The remaining saliva could only answer Itagaki Seishiro.
Itagaki Seishiro shouted: "Baga!!" Then he slapped the staff officer in the face.
The staff officer didn¡¯t even dare to cover his face, he could only nod and loudly said: ¡°Hai!!¡±
"The Eighth Route Army, how much fighting power do they have? Their equipment is not even as good as the Jinsui Army's weak combat power! Why hasn't the 21st Brigade broken through the Eighth Route Army's defense line and entered Pingxing Pass?" Itagaki Seishiro asked sternly. .
The staff officer said: "Although the Eighth Route Army is poorly equipped, their fighting will is very tenacious. It is not comparable to the Jinsui Army, which is about to collapse at the first touch. Moreover, the 21st Brigade has sent out a regiment of troops to fight back. reinforcements. However, the Eighth Route Army stationed at Yimaling resisted very tenaciously, and there seemed to be Kuomintang troops among them. Our regiment could not break through their defense line from the front for a while."
Itagaki Seishiro looked at the map of Pingxing Pass and immediately ordered: "Inform the commander of the 21st Brigade and ask him to personally lead troops back to Pingxing Pass to support Pingxing Pass. That is our transportation brigade. If they are annihilated, our offensive steps will be It will be slowed down. At the same time, let the troops from Lingqiu and Laiyuan rush to Pingxingguan quickly!"
The staff officer responded loudly, bearing the mark of the slap on his face: "Hai!!"
After saying that, he began to send telegrams to the Japanese troops stationed in Laiyuan and Lingqiu, asking them to immediately send troops to support Pingxingguan, and at least put some pressure on the Eighth Route Army from the outside. Win time for survival for the Japanese troops trapped in the valley.
At this time, in the Pingxingguan Valley, the Japanese army relied on trucks and began to build positions. And used crossfire composed of heavy machine guns to suppress the Eighth Route Army on the hilltop.
Although these old Eighth Route Army soldiers have high combat literacy, they do not have many bullets, so their firepower in local areas is not even as good as that of the Japanese troops who were ambushed.
But in the highlands of Laoye Temple, bullets seem to have always been something that can be squandered at will.
As the backbone of the entire transportation brigade, the Suzuki Squadron originally planned to seize the Laoye Temple high ground to suppress the Eighth Route Army ambushing in the ravine and relieve the pressure on the Japanese army on the highway.
But Suzuki never expected that they were like turtles at this moment, suppressed halfway up the mountainside by the ferocious firepower of the fourth regiment of guard companies, unable to even move. Not to mention charging forward to seize the high ground of Laoye Temple.
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat to the road." Suzuki was forced to have no choice but to give the order to retreat.
But the soldier behind him said: "Captain, we can't retreat. Their firepower is too fierce. If we retreat, we will become a living target."
"Suppressive artillery fire!! Suppress them with artillery fire!!" Suzuki roared angrily.
But as soon as he finished saying this, the soldier reminded him: "Captain, our field artillery was destroyed by them more than ten minutes ago. We no longer have artillery support, and the aviation unit has returned to the base to reload. .¡±
Hearing this, Suzuki felt a rather powerless feeling in his heart.
He was too depressed after fighting this battle. Originally, he wanted to lead people to seize the high ground of Laoye Temple. Unexpectedly, the firepower here was so fierce, and they were unable to move even an inch.
At this time, we were trapped on the mountainside, and we were really in a dilemma. Just rush up and?The intensive crossfire, the dense firepower network formed by dozens of automatic rifles, was enough to turn them into corpses on the mountainside.
If you step back, you will be a moving target. The people above are condescending and can easily harvest their lives.
"Smoke screen!" Suzuki said, "This is the only way."
"After releasing the smoke bomb? Charge or retreat?" the soldier asked.
Suzuki glared at him and said: "Nonsense, of course I will charge forward!! Are you going to be a cowardly coward?"
After he said this, the Japanese army halfway up the mountain threw more than a dozen smoke bombs.
The white smoke began to spread at this time.
Wei Zhilong said to Hu San next to him: "The kid threw a smoke bomb. Are you planning to retreat?"
Hu San shook his head and said: "The little devil is stubborn, maybe he will continue to charge!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the roar of the Japanese army came from the filled smoke screen.
Hu San heard the sound of dense footsteps and the strange screams of the little devils coming from the smoke screen. Even the dense gunfire all around couldn't cover up the ghostly whistling sound.
"The little devils have begun to charge, kill them!" Hu San said, then picked up the grenade and started throwing it into the smoke screen.
The heavy machine guns and automatic rifles on the position also began to fire at the smoke screen.
But at this time they had no vision, and when they shot, they could only shoot blindly at the smoke screen.
The screams of the Japanese soldiers came from the smoke screen. But the footsteps are getting closer and closer.
Although they suffered a lot of casualties, the Japanese army finally closed the distance between them and the Laoye Temple Highlands.
When this group of Japanese troops rushed out of the smoke screen, they were less than 20 meters away from the Laoye Temple position. It's such a close distance that you can almost reach it by running a few steps.
The little devil was also fierce. He stood upright and started to charge upward against the firepower of Hu San and his automatic rifles.
After firing all the bullets in the magazine, Hu San roared angrily and started a fierce hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese soldiers who rushed up.
