Chapter 391: Cavalry Outflanking


The defensive positions of the Six Hundred Regiment collapsed under the all-out Japanese attack.

All the defensive positions of the two battalions were breached, and the battle turned into a face-to-face hand-to-hand battle.

In the first-line defensive position, the soldiers of the 600th Regiment fought together with the oncoming Japanese troops.

The Japanese army had excellent stabbing skills but insufficient numbers, while the 600th Regiment had more people but more recruits.

The two armies were at loggerheads. .

However, the overall battlefield situation is developing in a direction favorable to the Japanese army.

After breaking through the 600 regiment's position, the attacking Japanese brigade continued to increase its troops in order to expand the breakthrough point.

"kill" A veteran of the 600th Regiment slammed the rifle equipped with a grenade launcher.

The rifle grenade hit the head of the Japanese soldier in front of him, causing blood to burst out.

There were four or five corpses of Chinese soldiers around.

At the same moment, the bayonet of a 38 rifle penetrated the abdomen of the veteran of the 600th Regiment.

There were many similar scenes on the entire battlefield.

The two sides fought together to the death.

The soldiers of the 600th Regiment had a real fight with the Japanese army for the first time.

The new recruits suffered a lot in hand-to-hand combat.

The veteran supervised the battle and barely managed to retreat, gaining ground at the cost of his life.

After the Japanese troops landed in Qinzhou Bay, they faced the fiercest resistance for the first time.

After the previous battles reached the stage of fighting, the Chinese defenders were basically about to collapse.

However, the Chinese soldiers who faced them today were still able to survive. persist in.

Almost all the main positions in Ertang were engaged in hand-to-hand combat.

Shao Yizhi, the leader of the 600th Regiment, saw that the situation was critical and had to go into battle personally.

In order to reinforce the front-line positions, he sent out all the reserves and personally led an infantry company to reinforce the front-line positions.

Shao Yizhi, the commander of the 600th Regiment, led more than 100 troops and detoured from the left wing of the main position.

Troops directly under the regiment and senior officers also went down to the position to participate in command operations.

"superior" Shao Yizhi took a rifle, fired at the front line of melee fighting, and led an infantry company up.

"Kill" A loud shout of killing came from the left wing of the 600 regiment's position.

The regiment leader took the lead in the charge.

The soldiers had no need to say anything.

They followed Shao Yizhi and rushed up.

A whole company of infantry reinforced the front line position of the Six Hundred Regiment from the left wing.

Many Japanese soldiers were still fighting hand-to-hand and were suddenly attacked.

There were not enough troops at all. reaction time.

The morale of the defenders on the Six Hundred Regiment's position was greatly boosted, and they fought hard with the troops led by regiment commander Shao Yizhi.

They cleared away the Japanese troops who rushed into the position and launched a counterattack against the Japanese troops near the position.

The battle was extremely fierce.

The regiment leader held a rifle and a bayonet and pretended to be a combat soldier against the Japanese soldiers.

Shao Yizhi personally killed several Japanese soldiers.

The morale-boosted defenders finally stabilized the position that was about to collapse.

The dozens of Japanese soldiers who rushed into the position were all killed except for a few who ran out.

The Japanese army left a large number of corpses inside and outside the position.

When they withdrew from the position, they were pursued by firepower from the defenders of the 600th Regiment, causing heavy casualties.

The defenders also paid a heavy price.

The reinforcement company led by Shao Yizhi suffered nearly forty casualties.

Although the Japanese army retreated, they did not withdraw.

Instead, they organized fire suppression and volley fire dozens of meters away from the position, and exchanged fire with the defenders of the 600th Regiment.

After driving the Japanese troops out, Shao Yizhi, the commander of the 600th Regiment, did not pursue but tried to stabilize the position and the defense line.

"Order the rest of your battalion to all enter the position to help defend.

Don't mess up.

The company I brought will also join your battalion's defense line.

We must hold the position."

Shao Yizhi leaned on his rifle and ordered a captain covered in blood in the trench.

Fierce fighting took place on the front line.

The battalion commander of the reinforced battalion was killed in the battle.

Now the acting commander is a company commander.

Shao Yizhi knew well that it was impossible to counterattack with this small force.

The only thing he could do was to maintain the current situation and strengthen defense.

"yes" The acting company commander immediately went down to organize the defense of the troops and accepted the reinforcements brought by Shao Yizhi.

In the newly restored front-line positions, except for some veterans and organized recruits who were shooting at the Japanese army, the remaining few hundred people had just finished their melee combat and fire pursuit, and had not yet completed the transition between offense and defense.

What Shao Yizhi and the company commander have to do now is to organize them, do a good job in defense, and consolidate their positions.

Due to the counterattack of the 600th Regiment, the situation on the entire Ertang defense line was alleviated.

Pulling one thread affected the whole body.

The same principle applies to defense.

The 600th Regiment's all-out desperate counterattack secured the safety of the entire defense line.

The infantry brigade fighting the 600th Regiment never expected that the fierce attack did not destroy the defensive position of a single regiment of Chinese troops.

In the past, those who fought against the brigade were usually division-level units of the Chinese army.

But today, they were defeated one after another in front of the Chinese infantry regiment of more than 2,000 people.

There were two battles at the Ertang position.

The Japanese army once attacked, but was counterattacked by the 600th Regiment.

After firing grenades, rifle grenades, and rifle machine guns for a while, the Japanese troops who attacked the 600th Regiment's position finally withdrew.

This second all-out attack still failed to capture the Ertang position.

To this day, Ertang is still firmly in the hands of the defenders of the 600th Regiment.

Now, in the entire Binyang area of ​​Nanning, only Ertang is experiencing large-scale fighting.

The fighting infantry brigades reported various intelligence and battle conditions to the brigade and regiment headquarters step by step.

Masao Nakamura, commander of the 21st Brigade, was shocked.

He had never encountered such fierce and tenacious resistance since landing in Qinzhou.

After the two attacks, the total number of Japanese casualties exceeded 200, with more than 100 killed, and a large amount of ammunition was consumed.

After the fighting stopped, Masao Nakamura clarified the opponent's situation through battlefield information investigation.

The people fighting them were not the Guangxi local army, but the main force of the Central Army, designated the 600th Regiment of the 200th Division.

After several setbacks, the Japanese troops attacking the Ertang position adjusted their strategies again.

With the communication between Nakamura Masao and the front-line troops, the 21st Brigade contacted the nearby 5th Cavalry Regiment of the 5th Division and requested them to cooperate with the infantry troops attacking Ertang to conduct an outflank attack.

The Fifth Field Artillery Regiment also sent troops to reinforce the 21st Brigade and strengthen its firepower.

The Fifth Cavalry Regiment responded quickly, sending two cavalry squadrons and a cavalry artillery squadron to move quickly.

Behind the Ertang position, three to four hundred Japanese cavalrymen riding Japanese horses quickly circled back with the goal of this place.

The cavalry regiment is not a combat cavalry in the traditional sense, but a mounted infantry that uses horses as vehicles and masters all infantry combat techniques.

The combat method is also based on dismounted combat and infantry offensive and defensive tactics.

However, traditional cavalry skills such as charging, saber slashing, and chopping are also practiced.

The cavalry squadron is equipped with Type 38 carbine and Type A 32-year saber.

The cavalry artillery squadron is issued with the Type 41 75mm cavalry gun used by the cavalry.

The main essence of the Fifth Division moved closer to the Ertang position held by the 600th Regiment.

The officers and soldiers of the 600th Regiment were still reinforcing their positions at this time
