    After arranging the attacking troops, the two brigades directly under the Japanese army headquarters quickly penetrated the two wings of the hillside.

    At this time, on the front, the Japanese vanguard led by Morishima had already begun the first round of charge.  Their soldiers seemed to be pushing forward all the time, but in fact they were more attracting firepower from the hillside.

    In this way, they can ensure the safety of the flanking troops to a certain extent.  They were unable to take care of the more than a thousand elite Japanese troops who were moving toward their flanks.

    "The little devils are starting to attack from both wings." Niu Shushi used a telescope to observe the situation on the flanks of the hillsides on both sides, and said to Xia Yang.

    Xia Yang smiled faintly and said: "The little devil is so stubborn that he is still using this tactic after so many years. He doesn't know how to innovate a little and come up with something new. He always attracts our firepower from the front, and then  Detach your troops and outflank them."

    Niu Shushi said: "Master, I sent people to stop them."

    Xia Yang waved his hand and said: "I am only responsible for general command. The combat troops here are all your direct subordinates, and of course they are under your command."

    After hearing this, Niu Shushi patted his chest and said to Xia Yang: "Master, don't worry, we will definitely make it impossible for these little devils to get past our blocking position."

    With that said, he used the walkie-talkie to say to the troops hidden on the two wings who had been standing still: "The troops on the flanks, immediately block the Japanese troops advancing on the flanks, and don't give them any chance to break through our position."

    At this time, the soldiers of the 228th Regiment, who had been standing still and hiding on the mountains on both sides, immediately entered the preset combat position after receiving the order from the regiment commander Niu Shushi.

    The Japanese troops on the flank were groping forward bit by bit, heading towards the flank.

    Saburo Toobo looked at the hillside that sloped upward. The terrain here was steep and desolate, with almost no place that could provide them with cover.  When charging in such an area, he felt a little nervous.

    It would be okay if the enemy only stationed a small number of troops here, but if the enemy deployed a company of troops on the flanks, it would be difficult for them to attack.

    "beat!"

    Before Tahozaburo could finish his thoughts, a roar suddenly came from the hillside above his head.

    Saburo Tooba was not convinced, but then he saw rows of dark muzzles poking out from the positions on the hillside, shooting at them.

    Two heavy machine guns also began to fire fiercely at the Japanese troops who were bending and climbing the hillside from both sides.

    In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people were knocked to the ground by a barrage of machine gun bullets and rifle bullets, and then rolled down the steep hillside.

    Saburo Taibo knew that he could not attack blindly at this time.  Because these enemies have obviously been prepared for a long time, as if they have already expected that they will attack from the flanks.

    ¡°Withdraw first and reorganize the attack.¡± Saburo Tooba shouted loudly, ordering the soldiers who rushed to the hillside to retreat first.

    On the other side, the troops led by Okawauchi Nosuke completely ignored the so-called terrain and the firepower of Xia Yang and the others.  Roaring angrily, he led his soldiers and launched a fierce attack on the hillside.

    From three directions, the two sides exchanged fire at the same time, and the battle soon entered a fierce stage.

    Xia Yang stood in the distance, observing the entire battlefield with a telescope.

    The battle had begun for more than an hour. The Japanese army was attacking in three directions at the same time, and it was very fierce.  However, the 228th Regiment led by Niu Shushi was also very tenacious and relied on the advantages of the terrain to prevent the Japanese army from moving forward.

    Xia Yang could clearly see that mortar shells kept landing on the 228th Regiment's blocking position, leaving craters one after another.  There were also many soldiers who were hit by these mortars and were blown directly into the sky.

    On the Japanese side, the infantry was also not idle.  Under the cover of mortars, grenades, and light and heavy machine guns, they launched charges again and again against the 228th Regiment's footprints in a stepped formation.

    This kind of attack is in the form of waves, one wave after another, not giving the soldiers of the 228th Regiment any chance to breathe.

    When Xia Yang saw the Japanese army, he had fully devoted his troops to this battle.  He knew that the time had come to lay siege to this Japanese army.

    When the army fights, sometimes it¡¯s like two masters fighting each other.

    When masters are fighting each other, one punchWhen punching out with your feet, you always have some remaining strength, and you don't use all your strength.  Unless he is sure that his blow can knock the opponent down directly.  Otherwise, he would have no way to deal with the opponent's counterattack.

    At this time, Okouchi Nosuke has already determined that as long as they use all their strength, they will be able to capture the position of the 228th Regiment and then support them to the grain storage valley.  Therefore, he did not leave any backup plan, but desperately launched charges towards the 228th Regiment's position one after another.

    But the disadvantage of this is that once someone sneaks up on him or attacks him.  Then he will not be able to withdraw his troops for defense, which will lead to failure.

    It is precisely because of this that Xia Yang launched the final siege against the Japanese army when the soldiers under the auspices of Okouchi fully participated in the attack.

    "Zheng Fei's cavalry regiment immediately detoured from the flanking mountains to the rear of the Japanese army. Bai Mingxuan's 189th regiment immediately encircled the Japanese army from the flanks and did not give them any chance to breathe." Xia Yang shouted loudly.

    At this time, the 189th Regiment and Zheng Fei's Cavalry Regiment waiting outside the mountain ridge were already itching to listen to the fighting in the valley.  After hearing Xia Yang's order, the two men's eyes suddenly lit up and they looked at the soldiers beside them.

    "Cavalry regiment, roundabout to the rear of the Japanese army, follow me!" Zheng Fei roared, and with his cavalry, he began to quickly roundabout to the rear of the Japanese army from the mountains on the flanks.

    Zheng Fei took out the Mauser pistol from his waist, pointed at the hillside next to him and said: "The little devils are in this valley, let's rush over and kill them!"

    After saying that, he was the first to lead his soldiers and rushed towards the hillside.

    When they reached this mountain range, they could clearly see the situation on the battlefield over there.  Once the mountains on both sides are occupied and the cavalry regiment cuts off the retreating path of the Japanese army, the encirclement will be basically completed.

    If this group of Japanese troops want to retreat, it will be even more difficult than climbing to the sky.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
