    Not only that, they also suffered heavy casualties.  This was after the enemies above had lost those extremely strong defensive bunkers.

    Yoshika Ryosuke began to doubt himself, wondering if there was a problem with his own fighting methods?  Or is it because of your own incompetence in commanding?

    In fact, there is no need for him to be so depressed, because with the Cangyun Peak in front of him, even if the Japanese Fifth Division is personally commanded by Itagaki Seishiro to fight, the result may be the same.

    ¡°After all, Itagaki Seishiro was held back for several days just by attacking the first line of defense in Sanlu Ridge.  Fighting further back, it was even more difficult. At this time, they were still stuck on the outside of the Taibai Mountain defense line, because the supply route was always attacked and could not continue to advance.

    "Your Excellency, Division Commander, good news. Our support troops have begun to move forward again. If it doesn't rain, they should arrive in a few afternoons and attack Cangyun Peak from behind. By then, Cangyun Peak will be attacked from both sides.  Unable to resist." His staff officer ran over at this time and whispered beside him.

    Hearing this, Ji Jialiangsuke raised his head, looked at the sky where the dark clouds gradually dispersed, and said, "It shouldn't rain anymore."

    It is true that it will not rain again, but the march of the two regiments supported by the Japanese army will definitely not be as smooth as the staff officer said.

    Because before Xia Yang left here with the main force, he had already asked his troops to lay mines on the only way for the Japanese reinforcements to pass. At the same time, a small force of several hundred people was left behind to constantly harass and block the Japanese army.

    The purpose of doing this is very simple. It is not intended to really block the advance of the two Japanese regiments, but to slow down the speed of their support to the greatest extent and provide time for Xia Yang's main force to return to support Cangyun Peak.

    Unlike the Japanese army that moved slowly in the mountains, Xia Yang and the others were able to greatly shorten the distance by taking small roads.  For example, the Japanese army had to take a detour on some mountain peaks, but Xia Yang and the others left a secret path that allowed them to cross directly.

    This greatly saves the time for troop maneuvers, allowing Xia Yang to always form a strength advantage over the Japanese army in local areas.  The general's troops, which were obviously not as numerous as the Japanese army, exerted double the strength.

    At this time, on the way to Cangyun Peak, the two regiments of the Japanese army did not rush forward at full speed.  Because their engineers were clearing mines at this time.

    On the mountain road ahead, or even on the hillside, Japanese soldiers had already detonated five landmines, causing dozens of casualties.

    The two captains of the Japanese army decisively ordered the engineer squadron to detect mines in the front, and then the infantry followed in the rear. At the same time, they sent small groups of scout troops to see if there were any other shortcuts.

    At this time, on a mountain ridge not far away, a battalion responsible for blocking the two Japanese regiments was ready for battle.

    Battalion Commander Bai Zhipeng was debugging an optical sight that had just been installed on his rifle.

    That was an optical sight that he shamelessly asked for from the sniper squadron. He was a very accurate shooter and had a strong interest in sniping, so he consulted the members of the sniper squadron many times in private.

    At this time, he adjusted the optical sight in his hand and began to look for the Japanese engineers who were exploring mines in the jungle.

    "boom!!"

    A gunshot was heard, and the engineer in charge was hit in the head.

    Seeing the Japanese engineer fall to the ground, Bai Zhipeng suddenly became happy and said to himself that this scope is so powerful, it can still see so clearly from such a distance.

    At this time, their position was more than two hundred meters away from where the Japanese engineers were.  Such a long distance has exceeded the limit of ordinary people's sight, but Bai Zhipeng used the added optical sight to successfully kill an enemy two hundred meters away.

    Several soldiers nearby also gave Bai Zhipeng a thumbs up.

    ¡°It¡¯s amazing, you can hit the camp from such a distance.¡±

    Bai Zhipeng smiled, and then continued to target the Japanese engineers who were lying on the ground and looking around.

    "Death!" He sneered and pulled the trigger again.

    However, this shot failed to hit the Japanese army as expected.  At such a long distance, there are too many shooting factors to consider. He has not received professional sniper training, so it is very rare to be able to hit a Japanese soldier at such a long distance.

    The two captains of the Japanese army have also noticed the situation over there.  Without saying a word, they asked the artillery troops to tell where Bai Zhipeng was at this time.Artillery bombardment was carried out in the ? direction, and engineers were ordered to continue demining.

    The Japanese army's mountain artillery firepower at the regiment level was not weak. After receiving the order, they immediately began to bombard the position where Bai Zhipeng Camp was located.

    Of course, Bai Zhipeng would not stay stupidly in the camp and be bombarded by the Japanese army. He directly led his soldiers to the reverse slope of the hillside.

    They knew that even if they didn't shoot to stop the Japanese engineers, the hundreds of landmines in the valley would be enough for them to clear for several hours.

    On the other side of Cangyun Peak, Yoshika Ryosuke was still anxiously waiting for reinforcements from the two Japanese regiments.  If they can attack Cangyun Peak where the Independent Regiment is stationed from two directions, their chances of winning will be much higher.

    What he didn¡¯t know was that the two Japanese regiments that were coming for reinforcements were still lying on the ground looking for various landmines and booby traps to clear a passable road.

    In the evening, Yoshika Ryosuke received news from the rear scout troops, saying that traces of enemy activities in their rear had been discovered.  And the number of people should be quite large, at least more than 3,000 people.

    That was Ma Siyuan's troops. After they followed Chen Shiliang's fourth division and eliminated the two Japanese regiments, they began to advance from the rear, posing a threat to the Japanese rear.

    This made Yoshika Ryosuke a little uneasy, but instead of worrying about their rear, they wanted to take down Cangyun Peak in front of them.

    The two attacks organized during the day ended in failure again.  The troops supporting them were still five kilometers away from Cangyun Peak.

    If they were to advance overnight, they could barely get here.  Otherwise, we will have to wait until early tomorrow morning or late at night to launch the attack on Cangyun Peak.

    Compared with the exhaustion of the Japanese army, their food and supplies are the most critical.

    At this time, although the Japanese Ninth Division had suffered heavy losses, it still numbered more than 10,000 people.  Just eating every day, more than 10,000 people consume a huge amount of food.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
