In the bunker, the heavy machine gun observers searched for the charging Japanese troops, and then guided the machine gunners next to them to conduct short bursts of fire and strafing at the charging Japanese troops.
Among the trees in the mountain forest, bullets kept flying. These bullets not only penetrated a large number of trees, but also beat the charging Japanese soldiers so hard that they did not dare to raise their heads.
The charge of the two squadrons lasted less than twenty minutes, and they suffered huge losses and had to retreat from the hillside to the foot of the mountain.
But even at the foot of the mountain, they could not find peace. Because the entire Guanhe Valley was covered by heavy machine gun fire on both sides, this made the Japanese troops below very uncomfortable. From time to time, flying bullets penetrated the bodies of these Japanese soldiers.
Moreover, their heavy machine gun firepower below was also taken care of by the snipers of the sniper squadron. Those Japanese commanders, after being killed by several squad leaders, honestly did not dare to show their faces and found a place to shout. But he didn't dare to charge with his soldiers anymore.
After all, without the organization of a commander, and relying solely on the spontaneous charge of the soldiers below, such a charge can easily fall into chaos, thus losing the effect of collective combat.
Going down the well, Zuo Yi hid behind a rock and used binoculars to observe the enemy firepower on both sides.
About ten minutes later, he had determined that the enemy had at least thirty machine gun fire points on both sides, as well as a large number of infantry and snipers for protection. The terrain they were in was flat, with no place to hide, and they would be hit by enemy fire from above at any time.
"Have the scout troops in front returned?" Shimoji Zuoyi asked.
His staff officer loudly said: "A small team came back and said that the situation in the front is slightly better, and there are at least some rocks for concealment. However, I think we should retreat temporarily while letting the troops on both wings move closer to us, and then start from Attack the enemy's bunker positions on the flank."
Xiajing Zuoyi thought for a while, and then said: "Now order the two brigades on the two wings to start moving closer to us. At the same time, we seize the high ground over there. When the brigades on the two wings come over, we will immediately start to cooperate inside and outside to attack the enemy's flanks. Position. As long as one of their positions on the mountains on both sides is defeated by us, the victory will belong to us."
Having said this, he added: "At the same time, immediately contact the commander of the Auxiliary Division Ji Jialiang and tell him the situation on our side. We must tell him more about the enemy, the firepower is fiercer, and our losses are bigger. .Urge him to send reinforcements to our side."
His staff officer immediately said: "Yes, Your Excellency, the brigade commander." After saying that, he immediately began to deploy the troops according to Shimozuo Yi's order.
More than ten kilometers behind them, the main force of the Japanese Ninth Division was marching in a long dragon between the mountains.
The mountain road here is difficult to travel, and the speed of large troops is much slower than that of small troops.
Yoshika Ryosuke, who was marching on his war horse, suddenly heard the cry of a soldier from behind.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, the 3rd Mixed Brigade encountered an enemy ambush. At this time, they are fighting hard with the enemy in the valley ahead. They are asking for help. I hope we can get there as soon as possible." The soldier said.
Hearing this, Ji Jialiangfu asked: "How many people ambushed them? Where is their specific location?"
The soldier said: "In a valley more than ten kilometers ahead, there were at least four to five thousand people ambushing them, and the firepower was very fierce. Their losses were very heavy. I hope we can get there before dark."
Yoshika Ryosuke thought for a while, and then said: "Order Asahi Shiro and the soldiers of the 7th Regiment to temporarily put down their heavy weapons and supplies, and march lightly to support the 3rd Mixed Brigade. They must reach the target before dark River Valley.¡±
"Yes, Your Excellency, Division Commander." The soldier said, and hurriedly ran forward to notify the main force of the 7th Regiment, which was marching ahead at this time.
After receiving the order, the Seventh Regiment hurriedly threw heavy weapons such as mountain artillery, as well as a large amount of supplies, to the troops behind. Their infantry was running lightly, carrying only a small amount of dry food and ammunition, and began to provide emergency support in the direction of Guanhegou.
The 7th Regiment has nearly 3,000 men. It throws those heavy weapons and supplies to the troops behind, and its marching speed is much faster than the main force of the 9th Division. It is basically guaranteed to arrive at Guanhegou before dark and provide sufficient support to the third mixed brigade.
At this time, the third mixed brigade has also begun to attack according to the formulated combat plan.??
They first attacked a high ground diagonally ahead. After occupying it, they would have a place to stay.
But when setting up the ambush, Ma Siyuan had obviously considered the decision Zuo Yi might make. Therefore, a full battalion of troops was placed on that high ground. At the same time, firepower can also cross between this high ground and the mountains on the flanks, providing mutual cover.
The Japanese Third Mixed Brigade dispatched two squadrons of troops to attack from both wings, but with little effect. There were only dozens of corpses left on the hillside, but they were unable to take down the high ground.
On the other side, the main force of the third mixed brigade began to attack the side of the mountain. On the other side of the mountain, there is a brigade of the Japanese army. They want to attack the mountain position here with the third mixed brigade, so as to take it directly.
¡° However, Shimojizuo Yi obviously underestimated the firepower of the guard regiment and the pre-war preparations made by Ma Siyuan and the others.
The Japanese army attacked this side with the strength of two brigades at the same time. Two thousand people attacked the mountain ridge where the guard regiment was located from two directions at the same time.
After Ma Siyuan received the order, he directly asked Chang Ran of the 125th Brigade to dispatch a battalion of troops to support the guard regiment. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
