After consulting the brigade commander, Nobuya Ryuichi and Taimura Shan directly obtained the command of the three squadrons scattered in the three nearby strongholds of the brigade, and the two men who had doubled their strength immediately became full of confidence, and immediately deployed troops to occupy the hillside on the west side of the shallow dam, and set up a guard post on the north side, using the height of the terrain to arrange fire to block the only road leading to the outside world.
Just as Nobuta Ryuichi and Taimura Yamanao were touting each other, a dense burst of gunfire suddenly rang out from the north, and several Japanese soldiers who were digging machine gun bunkers were shot and fell to the ground, and about a small group of Japanese troops quickly broke up.
Soon, a chaotic figure appeared in the coordinates of the cross division of the telescope, and after seizing the top of the North Ridge Mountain, they hid themselves in a hurry to leave, forming a situation of confrontation Nobuya Ryuichi couldn't believe his eyes, at first he was annoyed that there was a problem with his deployment, he thought that the enemy would quickly break through the dam bridge, but he didn't expect the stupid opponent to confront him, maybe today is his lucky day.
Nobuya Ryuichi hurriedly ordered Taimura Mountain to go straight: "Taimura-kun, please lead three armored vehicles and a squadron to be sure to hold the dam bridge and prevent the Shina people from wading through the water to break through."
"Please rest assured," Taimura nodded solemnly.
Because the distance between the two sides is only five or six hundred meters, so the deployment and movement of troops on both sides are clear, Song Yuhang was really surprised by the strength of the Japanese army, but soon pinned his hopes on the 31st Division, even if the current Japanese army cannot be annihilated, it is always much easier to open a breakthrough After the simple deployment, after Song Yuanxing and Chen Fufa observed the overall terrain, Chen Fufa told Song Yuhang that the hill they were occupying now was actually the famous local Woniu Ridge.
Legend has it that 500 years ago, a cow spirit was tamed by immortals and got its name.
Song Yuhang looked at the small hill he occupied in amazement, he didn't expect that such a small hill still has legends, and the most unbelievable thing for him is that the Japanese put the main forces on the opposite bank, which means that the Japanese army will attack on foot and wade "With such a good landmark, the control point will not be occupied, only guard sentries and a few groups of machine guns will be dispatched," the deployment of the Japanese army made Song Yuhang feel confused.
But soon Xu Tu'an came with the news, when digging the bunker, he found that the entire mountain was formed by granite, especially near the peak ridge and the zero line, and the topsoil was only a few inches thick.
The beach is dangerous and the water is urgent, and the only outward passage is the dam bridge, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack.
In desperation, Song Yuhang had no choice but to order the use of terrain and terrain for concealment.
Luckily, the mountain is steep and doesn't require much strength to defend it.
So Song Yuhang organized most of the personnel into groups and hid them in the position behind the mountain, ready to support the main peak at any time.
After seeing the deployment of the Chinese, Nobuta Ryuichi was also full of doubts, could it be that these guerrillas on the opposite side suddenly changed their minds and wanted to have a positional battle with the Japanese Imperial Army Soon.
The radio received aerial reconnaissance information from Wu Ming that the 31st Division on the Chongqing side was advancing in his direction.
The number is about three thousand to four thousand.
Nobuya Ryuichi smiled meaningfully with the telegram, he scoffed at the Chinese general's plan opposite, although the Japanese army at this moment can no longer be compared with the military quality of the personnel in 1937, but the strength of a normal Japanese army brigade is completely able to compete with the main combat regiment of a Chinese government army, he now has two fully equipped brigades in his hands, while the Chinese general on the opposite side only has more than 300 guerrillas and a few thousand tired troops who are rushing here. \ "Just use your blood to stain my war knife red, and achieve my honor," Shinda Taka yelled, pulling out his command knife and pointing at the other side After a dull sound, Niutoushan suddenly fell into a series of explosions, and the stumps crackled and fell down in the soil and stones.
Song Yuhang, who was lying on the buttocks of the cow, could clearly see the Japanese artillery position in the telescope.
Six Type 92 infantry guns were constantly emitting puffs of gunsmoke there.
The Japanese artillery position was located on the edge of the suppression range of heavy machine guns, but unfortunately Song Yuhang did not have heavy machine guns.
The Browning heavy tube rifle carried by the rescue team led by Xu Tuan had limited ammunition and could not replace the heavy machine gun.
For a squadron with a serious lack of artillery, the Type 92 infantry gun, which was light and fast, could quickly disassemble and assemble, was an absolute nightmare.
After just ten minutes of shelling, Song Yuhang ordered Chen Fufa to send 30 people to reinforcements, fortunately no one was frightened by the Japanese artillery fire, a small leader under the widow Ma, although his legs and feet were a little chaff, but he still did not give up his share, and took the lead in rushing to the head of the bull Under the encouragement of his rough shouting and scolding, the reinforcement operation went smoothly.
Song Yuhang expected the same, six dead and one wounded in the seven observation posts arranged in the position of the bull's head before, and several corpses could not even be identified, Song Yuhang did not have enough troops to spread along the line, so he could only choose the narrow space of the bull's head as the commanding heights, although it could save a lot of troops, but the shortcomings were also obvious, that is, if the Japanese artillery retaliated, the casualty ratio would be very amazing.
More than 50 Japanese soldiers lined up in a straggler formation and shouted and jumped out of the starting position on the opposite bank, and quickly began to wade into the water, and the river water about half a meter deep did not pose much resistance to the Japanese troops.
When the Japanese army had just crossed halfway and was still about 300 meters away from the Niutou position, all kinds of weapons on the Niutou position opened fire one after another, because of the long distance, the shooting effect was not ideal, except for a few Japanese soldiers who slipped and fell, only about two or three Japanese soldiers were hit, and the rest smoothly entered the blind spot at the foot of the mountain.
At the same time that Niutou suffered from the Japanese artillery fire, about 100 Japanese soldiers swarmed out of the starting position and quickly waded through the water, at this time only sporadic gunfire sounded on the bull's head, and it seems that the Japanese artillery bombardment just now caused heavy casualties to the blockades on Niutou.
Song Yuhang watched expressionlessly as Chen Fufa continued to organize personnel to reinforce Niu Tou, while Widow Ma wiped her pistol with red eyes.
From the time and density of the Japanese shelling, Song Yuhang estimated that the Japanese army was carrying not many shells, otherwise he would have to prepare to disperse the rescue team brought by Xu Tu'an to command, most of Chen Fufa's people were fighting well, while Ma Widow's people were fighting indiscriminately, either cowering and letting go of their breath, or bravely exposing most of their bodies to shoot at the Japanese army.
Fortunately, the terrain is very powerful for defense, the Japanese army can only attack along the peak line from both ends, as soon as the Japanese army leaves the blind spot of the straight cliff at the foot of the mountain, it is directly exposed to the range of fire on the top of the mountain.
After several unsuccessful attacks, the Japanese concentrated the strength of a squadron, and under the cover of several Type 92 heavy machine guns and more than 10 Type 11 light machine guns, began to advance slowly with firepower as the lead.
The Japanese army's tactical adjustment was successful, the defenders were suppressed by the Japanese firepower for a while, and ordered Xu Tuan to transfer the snipers of the rescue detachment to Ushiwei to prepare to snipe the Japanese machine gunners Bullets flew at close range, and the air smelled of gunsmoke Song Yuhang rolled more than ten meters, used a stone to quietly climb out, and searched the direction of the shot just now with a telescope, as usual, Song Yuhang broke out in a cold sweat, what he just did was definitely not a stray bullet, but a sniper of the Japanese army.
After asking for a sniper rifle for a rescue team, Song Yuhang put on a sniper's camouflage suit, and slowly climbed into a small area of low bushes by using the terrain, and he was not in a hurry to shoot, he continued to observe the abnormality of the Japanese position with a telescope, and he had a hunch that the Japanese sniper would definitely change the firing position after missing a shot.
Chen Fufa, who was organizing four machine guns on the head of the bull to try to suppress the Japanese firepower, bent over, suddenly fell to the ground with a numb shoulder, and continued to fire two machine guns in succession This phenomenon attracted the attention of Song Yuhang, a professional sniper in his previous life, and finally, Song Yuhang found a flash of light in the direction where he had just shot at him, a position between two rocks, and he knew that it was the muzzle of the rifle to extinguish the flame Angry and hateful, Song Yuhang slowly put the Japanese sniper gloves into the scope, but the Japanese sniper who crawled between the two stones only revealed a pair of huge suede shoes After waiting for a while, Song Yuhang, who couldn't bear it, aimed at the ankle bone of the Japanese sniper, and after firing decisively, Song Yuhang did not move, only moving the muzzle of the gun forward a little.
After the Japanese sniper, who was almost knocked off his ankle bone by a 76mm bullet, was hit hard, he instinctively sat up from the ground, holding a heart-rending wail with a broken foot, and Song Yuhang, who had been waiting for a long time, easily gave this Japanese soldier Cao Chang with a mustache a craniotomy.
After completing the shooting, Song Yuhang patted the Garand 1D sniper rifle in his hand, although the accuracy of this gun is worse than the single-shot rifle with the bolt pulling back, but its semi-automatic structure makes the shooter do not have to reconstitute the aiming line because of the shell and ammunition, which is of great significance for the large-scale equipment use of ordinary troops on the front line, just when Song Yuhang was ready to continue to test the performance of the gun, he was forced to drag back by Xu Tuan and several team members, and Song Yuhang could only watch the sniper kill the Japanese machine gun shooter through the telescope.
The anomaly of Ushio quickly attracted the attention of Ryuichi Nobuta, and when the Japanese artillery fired the first positioning calibration ruler, Song Yuhang and others quickly withdrew from Ushio, and behind them the Japanese artillery shells carried out a artillery ploughing and fire.
Although Song Yuhang and the others retreated in a very timely manner, they were still inevitably hit by the gravel blown up by the shells, and Song Yuhang regretted the next risky move, which was probably the most reckless plan he had ever made, but he was also forced out
