The Japanese garrison was under heavy artillery fire, and the 160th Division, which was only a few kilometers away from them, could hear what was going on even if they were deaf.
What's more, they have been paying close attention to the actions of this brigade. How could such a fierce battle not attract attention?
Commander Ye turned over and sat up, and immediately summoned commanders above the battalion level to hold an emergency combat meeting.
"The Yamada Brigade of the Japanese 13th Division is at war. Judging from the intensity of gunfire, it must be the work of the Wensan Independent Regiment again." Commander Ye said with great certainty.
The only surrounding troops remaining were the 66th Army and Wen San's independent regiment. The 66th Army is firmly on the defensive line. If there is any trouble, he, the commander, will know it immediately.
Then the only one who would attack the Japanese was Wen San's independent regiment. They have this strength and dare to fight against the Japanese who have more troops than themselves.
Of course, the Independent Regiment is best at night fighting, which is their important characteristic. It's just that this battle happened after three o'clock in the morning. I don't know if it was too late or too early.
"Commander, why don't we lead our troops out and attack them all at once!" Many commanders showed signs of excitement.
The Yamada brigade was too close to them, and now the fighting was so fierce. It was a good opportunity for the 160th Division to attack.
"Why do you think I asked you to get up? The troops of the two regiments in the front are out of the defense line and press me up! We owe Wen San a lot of favors, and we must help in this situation!"
Commander Ye directly issued the combat order without much discussion.
As the saying goes, soldiers need to be quick, but he was worried that he would not be able to take a sip of the soup if he went too slowly. He is well aware of the ferocity of the Independent Regiment. A Japanese with multiple brigades may not be able to withstand their attack.
Wen San didn't know that a supporting army had quickly rushed towards the ghost. Before the battle, although he had considered the location of the 160th Division, he had not calculated their strength.
Now he is concentrating on intercepting Yamada Kakuji. Both sides are moving on the same route, and the distance between the two sides is already very close.
When Wen San appeared with the supervising team, the expression on Yamada's face was rich. His eyes swept across the faces of each of his men, eager to find the so-called 'traitor'.
Because he had just ran out of the temporary command post, why did this enemy force block his way like a divine soldier descending from the sky?
This is not scientific at all. Except for the explanation of 'traitor', everything else seems so unreasonable.
"Turn in, turn in!" Many Japanese commanders screamed.
Unfortunately, as soon as they turned around, they were bombarded by a rocket. Several Japanese soldiers suddenly became trapeze artists, but their posture when they landed on the ground was particularly ugly and they would definitely not survive.
"Go with all your strength and destroy this group of devils!" Wen San pointed with his hand. This was the ultimate goal of his all-out charge. How could he let it go so easily?
As soon as he shouted, the supervisory team and the cavalry company followed with enthusiasm, and all the soldiers rushed forward regardless of it!
There weren't many Japs standing in front of them, so how could they withstand the combined iron fists of these two companies? In less than a minute, the Japanese in front were wiped out.
Wen San came to Yamada Keiji. The man's face was already blue, but he still gritted his teeth and stared at Wen San fiercely.
"When did you plant a traitor next to me?" Yamada Yuji really wanted to figure this out. Otherwise, even if he died, he would just be a confused man.
"It's just a matter of placing a few people. Is it difficult? There are people in your headquarters who I have placed." Wen San boasted directly. He believed that the news would definitely reach the Japanese headquarters.
It doesn't matter whether the Japs believe it or not. As long as this news is spread back, the Japs will definitely be in a state of panic.
Wen San's independent group has been able to achieve various incredible results many times, and it must have done a good job in intelligence. Moreover, he could accurately grasp the dynamics of the Japanese troops every time, and he could also eliminate the top commander of the Japanese troops. It’s hard not to make people suspicious!
As for who and where these planted 'traitors' are, let the Japanese Special High School worry about it.
Yamada Kakiji never got the answer he wanted until his death, but he did report his suspicions to the police a long time ago.
The Japanese command headquarters fell into silence when they saw the news from Yamada Kaoriji. Even the old devil Matsui Iwane became suspicious.
"Damn it, let me tell you why Wen San's independent regiment has achieved such great results every time. It turns out that he actually planted a traitor in our headquarters! We must strictly screen and find this traitor..."
The Japanese commander was furious. This was simply outrageous.
"Did Wen San say that on purpose? Just to disrupt our command system?" Some Japanese still didn't believe it.
"Who can guarantee that it is not the case? The Chinese army has always been weak. Only this army is getting stronger as it fights, and it can anticipate the enemy's opportunities every time. How did he do it without the help of a mole?"
The doubters also had theoretical support, and the Japanese headquarters suddenly became quarrelsome. Everyone who looked at him felt like the other person was a traitor.
"The Yamada brigade is over, quickly order Nakajima, don't let the 16th Division get closer, stay as far away from there as possible." The Japanese commander has given up hope.
The Japanese in both brigades were crippled by the independent group. How many people did the Yamada brigade have?
As soon as Yamada Sakiji died, the Japs' combat effectiveness immediately dropped by a notch. How can the abilities of other commanders be compared to it?
The key is that without the coordination and command of the brigade commander, the cooperation between the various Japanese departments has begun to become chaotic.
Lao Wan, who was attacking from the front, immediately felt this change.
"It is estimated that the regiment commander has succeeded. He ordered all the ministries to attack with all their strength and break down the Japanese defense line!" Lao Wan immediately changed the battle plan. As long as this wave comes forward, the Japanese will definitely begin to collapse.
Just when all the units of the independent regiment were firing with all their strength, the 160th Division finally pounced.
Originally, their side was a frontal defense line, but the independent regiment attacked from behind the Japs, and the Japs turned their attention to the rear again.
Now the two sides are fighting in full swing, and most of the soldiers on the Japanese front line have been taken away. The remaining Japs focused most of their attention behind them.
Troops from two regiments of the 160th Division rushed forward, and the Japanese were completely at a loss. The 160th Division charged down and penetrated the Japanese defense line.
The Japanese of the Yamada Brigade were already surrounded. No matter which direction, there were troops launching fierce attacks on them.
"Captain, we seem to have killed a big guy." Liu Dazhu ran up, his eyes very excited. He didn't know that Wen San was going to the Japanese Brigade Commander Yamada Kakiji for this battle.
"Pick up the guys and leave quickly, we are going to kill all the Japs' command system!" The Japs are still resisting, and a Japs major general cannot stop Wen San.
+Yesterday's total of 560, plus the previous number of 745, gives a total of 1305 times.
