Ishihara Shozo wants to reopen the connection between the two Japanese forces, so that the two little devils can join forces to prevent being divided and surrounded by the Eighth Route Army, the wish is beautiful, but the reality is very cruel.After the Eighth Route Army occupied the position of the gourd's waist, the twelve heavy machine guns on the gourd peak immediately turned their muzzles and began to shoot fiercely at the little devils in the gourd's belly.At the same time, the Eighth Route Army set up more than a dozen mortars on the top of the mountain and began to bombard the little devils gathered in the belly of the gourd.Under the fierce blows of our army, the little devils who tried to counterattack suffered heavy casualties and retreated one after another.At this time, Li Guotao, Changde and others hurried to Hulu Peak, looking at the little devils in the valley, Li Guotao was also excited.Chang De said with a smile: "Now the front and back roads of the little devils have been successfully cut off by our army, and the little devils in the gourd valley have also been successfully cut into two by our army." ”"Hmm" Li Guotao held the binoculars and observed, and then ordered with a serious face: "Immediately dispatch the main force, and first annihilate the little devils who are blocked behind in one fell swoop."
In addition, the artillery unit was immediately ordered to build a position on the top of Hulu Peak to provide fire support for the attacking troops. ”"Yes," Chang De replied respectfully, turned around and ordered a soldier of the Eighth Route Army to run to convey the order.A little devil officer in the valley ran in front of Ishihara Shozo in embarrassment, and said with a sad face: "Your Excellency Dazuo, the firepower of the Tsuchibachi Road is too fierce, and the warriors of the imperial army can't rush through at all, and they suffer heavy losses. ”"A group of rubbish in Baga, all of them are waste" Ishihara Shozo shouted angrily: "In such a short period of time, a group of Tubalu captured Hulu Peak, and the face of the imperial army was lost to this group of fools" "Your Excellency Dazuo is angry, now is not the time to hold you accountable, you should find a way to break through as soon as possible, now the front and back roads of the imperial army are blocked by Tubalu, and the imperial army trapped in the Hulu Valley has also been cut into two sections by Tubalu, if you don't break through as soon as possible, it will be quite unfavorable to the imperial army." ”The devil officer hurriedly spoke."
Yaga Yalu" Ishihara Shozo gritted his teeth and scolded, at this time the old devil was also a little flustered, and he didn't know what to do for a while.Ishihara Shozo turned around and glanced at the surrounding peaks, and suddenly focused his eyes on the peaks in the north of the valley, and couldn't help but flash a bright light in his eyes, as if a drowning man had grasped the last life-saving straw, and roared loudly with excitement: "Now the northern peaks are still in the hands of the imperial army, order everyone to go up the mountain immediately, dripping quickly" Ishihara Shozo thought very simply, the Eighth Route Army occupied Hulu Peak, and condescending artillery fire could cover the entire valley, if they continued to stay in the valley, They could only be annihilated one by one by the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army."
But what about the Imperial Army troops behind," the devil officer hurriedly asked."
Now that the retreat of the imperial army has been cut off, it is quite difficult to break through, and the firepower of the people is too fierce, and it is difficult for us to open up the connection with the imperial army behind, so that the two imperial armies are combined, and now they can only fight separately."
Ishihara Shozo said helplessly.The devil officer replied respectfully, turned around and ran to deliver the order.Li Guotao held the binoculars and watched the little devils in the valley gradually retreat towards the mountains to the north, nodded with a smile and said, "As expected, the little devils really ran to the mountains in the north.Ignore them for the time being, concentrate all the artillery fire, bombard the little devils who were intercepted behind, and destroy this little devil first. ”With Li Guotao's order, all the artillery on Hulu Peak immediately turned their muzzles and began to bombard the little devils behind.At the same time, the main force of more than 3,000 troops of the Eighth Route Army launched a fierce attack on the little devils who were divided and surrounded from the waist of the gourd and the mouth of the gourd.Under the fierce artillery fire of our army and the flanking attack of the infantry of the Eighth Route Army, the more than 1,000 little devils who were besieged in the rear struggled to support it for less than an hour before they were all annihilated.At this time, Ishihara Shozo had already climbed to the top of the North Mountain, and facing the steep mountain on the northern slope, Ishihara Shozo couldn't help but fall into hesitation.Now there were two paths in front of him, either hold on and wait for reinforcements, or throw away all the baggage, descend the northern slope, and break out.Although the mountain is steep here, people can still go down the mountain as long as they do not carry heavy objects and are careful."
Report to Your Excellency Dazuo, the division headquarters has called back, Your Excellency the division commander has urgently ordered all troops to rush to our aid, but it will take at least ten hours for reinforcements to arrive."
A devil officer hurriedly ran to Ishihara Shozo and said respectfully."
Yaga" Ishihara Shozo gritted his teeth and scolded angrily, at this time, Ishihara Shozo regretted his greed for merit for the first time, but the matter has come to this, no matter how much he regrets it, it is useless."
Your Excellency Dazuo, what should we do now The situation is very unfavorable to the imperial army, and I hope that Your Excellency Dazuo will make a decision as soon as possible."
At this time, the devil officer saw that Ishihara Shozo was silent, and hurriedly asked.Ishihara Shozo was also in a dilemma at this time, if he insisted on waiting for help, would they be able to hold out for more than ten hours with their current situation, Ishihara Shozo really had no bottom in his heart, but if he broke through lightly, then he would have to discard all the materials and heavy equipment, so that even if he could break through and suffer such heavy losses, he would not be able to explain to the division commander "How many troops are there in the imperial army now" Ishihara Shozo hesitated and asked."
Report to Your Excellency Dazuo, there are less than two thousand people left in the imperial army now."
The devil officer said helplessly."
How could Nani still have such a few people left," Ishihara asked, his eyes wide, in disbelief.The 15th Infantry Wing has a full strength of nearly 4,000 people, and now there are less than 2,000 people left, and more than half of them have been lost, so it is no wonder that Ishihara Shozo was so surprised."
Your Excellency Dazuo, the imperial army that was blocked behind has been completely wiped out, in the battle just now, the imperial army lost more than two thousand people, and now there are indeed less than two thousand people left."
The devil officer sighed helplessly and said."
Yagaya Road," Ishihara Shozo gritted his teeth and scolded loudly."
Boom" A violent explosion suddenly sounded, and the artillery of the Eighth Route Army began to bombard Beishan, and a large number of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army had also rushed to the foot of Beishan Mountain, ready to attack at any time.aa2705221:
