Heroes of the War of Resistance

Just when Pang Bingxun was about to call back to ask for instructions, after the next telegram was sent, he said with some joy: "Call Chief Li back, and our department will go to the front line immediately. Unexpectedly, Captain Hu and the others called back again."

The two division commanders under his command also said happily: "Army seat, is it a special operations team?"

"That's right! It's the special operations team that helped us encircle and suppress the Sakamoto brigade earlier. They are lurking in Yicheng now. Just now, the special operations team blew up the supplies stored by the Japanese army in Yicheng. Our troops are fighting back in an all-round way." .”

"There should be a Japanese army garrison in Yicheng, right? I heard that after the little devil entered the city, he drove away all the people in the city. There was no one else in the city except the little devil. In this case, what should the special operations team do? Arrived?"

As a commander at the division level, he naturally knows the difference between having civilians and not having civilians if he wants to sneak into a heavily guarded county.The most difficult thing is how to blow up the heavily guarded material warehouse?That kind of place, idlers should not go near it!

Hearing the exclamation of his commander, Pang Bingxun said with joy on his face: "Order the troops, set off for Yicheng immediately, send a report to the special operations team immediately, and ask them about the situation in Yicheng, I hope they send someone to come Meet us.

Had it not been for the sneak attack by the Tenth Division of the Japanese Army before, we would not have lost Linyi.If we can take Yicheng this time, we will be able to copy the back route of the Tenth Division.We can't miss this opportunity for us to take revenge! "

"Yes, Military Seat! Do you want to take the newly added troops with you?"

During this period, the No.1000 Army, which has recruited more than 40 recruits from the rear, is also worried that these recruits who have only undergone simple training in the rear will find it difficult to adapt to the battlefield environment.Bringing the recruits there might actually cause trouble.

But for Pang Bingxun, facing the questioning of the staff officer, he thought for a while and said: "As a reserve team, the recruits will go to the front line with the main force. They will definitely not be able to fight tough battles, but they should be able to clean the battlefield. Once you become a soldier, you must see them." See blood!"

Since these new recruits have joined the No.40 Army, they will be Pang Bingxun's subordinates in the future, and they will naturally be drawn to the front line to fight.This time he was ordered to outflank, and Pang Bingxun felt that there should not be many tough battles, and the troops of one division were almost enough.

Most importantly, he felt that the cooperation of the special operations team would also relieve them of a lot of pressure.During the previous encirclement and suppression of the Sakamoto Brigade, he and the troops of the Ninth Army hardly encountered any tough battles, and they seized a large amount of spoils of war.

Right now, the No.40 Army is in urgent need of reconstruction, and the soldiers will be deployed one after another.But for weapons and ammunition, many of the recruits sent over didn't even have weapons.If you want to arm these recruits, you must accumulate a large amount of weapons and ammunition.

Only troops with weapons and ammunition have combat effectiveness. If they don't even have basic self-protection weapons, what is the use of such troops on the battlefield?Counting on the theater to provide weapons and ammunition, now there is no shortage of that army or division?

Only by capturing it on the battlefield can the strength of the headquarters be restored in the shortest possible time.As an army commander, Pang Bingxun naturally understands the importance of strength.If all the troops under his command are wiped out, his army commander will be in vain.

After receiving the news that the No.40 Army was about to rush to Yicheng, Hu Biao also knew that time was running out, and he was waiting for dawn before acting, and he might miss the best time to set up an ambush.At daybreak, the little devil's advantage on the battlefield will increase.

According to the situation during the daytime reconnaissance, Hu Biao divided the spy company into three, and one of the platoons was in charge of battlefield reconnaissance, that is, reconnaissance of the Japanese troops coming to support from the rear, and reconnaissance of the main force of the [-]th Division that might retreat from Taierzhuang .

As for the second platoon under Qin Tianyou's command, they had just rushed to the road section outside Yicheng, where they were going to set up explosive traps to destroy the road entering Yicheng.As for the road leading to Taierzhuang, Hu Biao was in charge of it himself.

Arriving on the road used by the Japanese army for supply, Hu Biao reconnaissance the terrain again, and finally chose a road with hillsides on both sides to set up an ambush.There is a jungle behind the hillside, and it can also hide a large number of troops lurking and waiting.

When the No.40 Army arrived later, they could also go to the jungle to rest first.As for the ambush on the highway, no matter whether the troops withdrawn from Taierzhuang or the reinforcements coming from Yicheng, they must pass through the ambush position.

As long as the Japanese reinforcements from the rear are not allowed to arrive at Yicheng in a short period of time, Hu Biao can find a way to capture Yicheng before the Japanese reinforcements arrive, and then let the No. The retreat of the Tenth Division.

Without Yicheng as the rear, the Tenth Division, which had withdrawn from the front line, could only choose to break out from other directions.No matter from which direction to break through, Hu Biao believes that these little devils will be blocked and divided and surrounded by the anti-Japanese troops.

Whether or not the Tenth Division can be encircled and wiped out in the end depends on whether the other anti-Japanese troops fight resolutely and tenaciously.During the breakout period, the little devil's heavy artillery and armored vehicles might not be able to use them.Once the ammunition runs out, they will be defeated.

"Zhuzi, take Miss Lin to the mountains and set up our radio station. Beside, remember to dig anti-cannon holes, and it's best to avoid the area scouted by the little devil's plane. Without my order, the radio team must stay there side."

"Yes, Captain!"

Knowing that it is already a rare thing to be able to bring herself out to participate in the battle, Lin Yashi also felt that it was impossible to really want to participate in the battle.Fortunately, being able to watch the battle at such a close distance is also an attempt and progress for Lin Yashi.

In a sense, Hu Biao no longer resisted taking her out to fight.Compared with earlier in Jinling, she was only responsible for taking care of the wounded, and her tasks and responsibilities are undoubtedly greater now.After hearing the order, she quickly followed.

During this process, Hu Biao looked at the road below the hillside, and quickly said: "In this place, dig an anti-tank trench, remember to add camouflage. On the road side, the old rules are still laid, and electric bomb traps are laid.

On the hillsides on the left and right sides, start digging defensive trenches. Try to dig a larger area, and be careful not to damage the surrounding vegetation.Er Xilai organized the highway trap, Chen Qiang was in charge of digging the trenches, and I was in charge of the anti-tank trenches myself.start! "

"Yes, Captain!"

Through the telegram communication with Li Zongren earlier, Hu Biao knew that the [-]th Division of the Japanese Army that attacked Taierzhuang had two squadrons of light armored vehicles.If the Tenth Division really planned to retreat, it would definitely send a chariot squadron back to assist Yicheng.

This kind of return aid is fast, and can ensure the safety of the retreat road, allowing the troops following behind to retreat back to Yicheng smoothly.After looking at it on the road, Hu Biao felt that the wasteland on one side of the road should be able to pass through the little devil's chariot.

In order to prevent the little devil's chariots from taking the road to the wasteland to break through, Hu Biao naturally needed to dig an anti-tank trench in the wasteland where the chariots could pass.Once the little devil's chariot goes this way, it will fall into the camouflaged trench.

As for passing through the road, there are explosive traps laid on the road. As long as one of the little devil's chariots is paralyzed, other chariots will not be able to move forward.As for wanting to retreat, the explosive traps set up are the ones that can plug the head and truncate the tail.

Hu Biao and his party arrived on the highway and started to get busy on the highway overnight.The troops sent out for reconnaissance in advance also began to send back news one after another through the radio.Lin Yashi, who had set up the radio station, asked Tian Tiezhu to report the news from time to time.

After Tian Tiezhu finished transmitting the telegram, he would bring back Hu Biao's call back, which did not delay the arrangement on the road.When the No.40 Army, which attacked overnight, arrived at the ambush site, the reconnaissance team in front also sent back news.

"Captain, General Pang's subordinates have arrived! In addition, the reconnaissance team has received news that a Japanese chariot squadron and cavalry squadron are less than ten miles away from us. It seems that they should arrive at our side soon."

"How is the excavation going?"

"Report to the captain, enough for us to hide!"

"Zhuzi, send a report to General Pang and ask him to dispatch an elite company. Bring more machine guns, and the rest of the troops are temporarily lurking. There are not so many troops here. Call back to the squad to delay the harassment war."

"Yes, Captain!"

Hu Biao, who quickly gave instructions, let people start the final camouflage for the ambush position.The explosive traps buried on the highway have also begun to be cleaned.Thinking that the little devil had cavalry, Hu Biao sent people to set up tripping ropes and machine gun positions in front.

This arrangement was more to annihilate these little devils who came back to help, and to ensure that the Japanese troops stationed in Yicheng would not know that there was a division of anti-Japanese troops planning to seize Yicheng under their control!

Chapter Table of Contents Chapter [-] The little devil is here!

After receiving a telegram from the Yicheng defenders, the division commander Isoya Rensuke, who was on the front line, also realized that the situation was not good.The main force of the division is fighting on the front line, and consumes a huge amount of materials every day. In many cases, it needs to provide supplies from the rear.

This time, in order to take Taierzhuang, which has a heavy defense, the Japanese army added two independent light armored squadrons to the Tenth Division.Its intention is also very simple, that is, to strengthen the tenth division's offensive strength.

Light armored vehicles are easy to use, but they are very dependent on logistical supplies, and fuel and ammunition need to be replenished in time.When fighting on the front line, it is impossible for armored vehicles to bring all the fuel to the battlefield, and most of them are resupplied before going to the battlefield.

Originally, Isoya Rensuke wanted to wait until dawn before retreating. In that case, he could call the air force to provide air cover, retreat to Yicheng to rest for a while, and wait for the rear supplies to arrive in place before formulating a new attack plan.

What surprised him was that Li Zongren in the fifth war zone seemed to be showing weakness to the enemy all the time. Many elite troops had already detoured to the outskirts of Taierzhuang, preparing to encircle and suppress the tenth division, so as to defeat the Japanese army's attack on Xuzhou. .

After receiving an urgent call from the brigade and the regiment under the division, a large number of Japanese main forces were found near the attack area, and Isoya Rensuke also realized that this was a full-scale counterattack by the Japanese.If the supplies are sufficient, the [-]th Division can stand by and wait for help.

However, the supplies stored by the division are limited right now, and if they want to cope with the Japanese army's full counterattack, the speed of ammunition consumption must be accelerated.In the absence of supplies from the rear, the division may really run out of ammunition and food.

In order to avoid this unexpected discovery, Isotani Rensuke immediately ordered his troops to move closer to the main force. With the help of the division's powerful attack and defense capabilities, they broke through the siege of the army. At the same time, they sent chariots and cavalry to ensure the safety of the retreat.

Although Rensuke Isoya adjusted his combat deployment very quickly, Li Zongren's mission to the [-]th Army was earlier.In addition, Pang Bingxun wanted to seek revenge from the Tenth Division, separated the recruits from the veterans, and directly led the remaining main force to march forward in a hurry.

When the independent tank squadron and cavalry brigade sent by Isoya Rensuke arrived at the road section, the elite troops under the command of Pang Bingxun arrived one step ahead.Pang Bingxun seemed somewhat surprised when he received the telegram from Hu Biao.

Looking at the chief of staff beside him, he said, "The little devil reacted so quickly? Will a company have too few troops?"

"Military seat, since they dare to make such a request, they must be sure. The most important thing is that the brothers marched all night, which will be very tiring. If they want to attack Yicheng, they must rest and adjust. See?"

"Okay! Let the military guard battalion go with me. I want to go to the front and see for myself. I will talk to Captain Hu before I talk about it. You watch the things here first and let the brothers rest well. I know that the brothers are suffering. , but you must persevere!"

"Yes, Military Seat! Then you should be more careful!"

"It's okay! With the protection of the guard battalion, and in the mountains, the little devil can't hurt me!"

After saying this, Pang Bingxun quickly brought the most elite guard battalion around him, adjusted a lot of light machine guns from the downsized main force group, and quickly followed Tian Tiezhu who came to meet him with ammunition, and arrived at the place where Hu Biao was. Ambush positions.
