103 Highlands!
The soldiers of the independent regiment dug more than 100 meters of trenches along the west and south sides of the mountain, and dug more than 30 individual soldier pits.
The trenches were very shallow, only about one and a half meters deep, and the individual soldier pits were not deep enough. In some places, they were not even one meter deep. How could such trenches and individual soldier pits hide enemy shells?
Xie Jinyuan frowned after his inspection, but he did not order the soldiers to continue digging. The soldiers were very tired. Whether they were recruits from independent regiments or prisoner of war camps, their physical strength was severely exhausted at this time.
Some people even vomited while eating canned food to replenish their energy.
"Regiment deputy, the little devil is here."
At this moment, Zhu Shengzhong, who was in charge of the investigation, ran back and reported to Xie Jinyuan.
Xie Jinyuan looked in the direction of Zhu Shengzhong's finger and could see the flashing car lights with the naked eye. There were quite a few Japs, and there were more than a dozen trucks, less than seven or eight miles away from them.
"In such an open area, it will be very disadvantageous for us to block the Japanese."
Xie Jinyuan frowned again. Because as an elite member of the Eighty-Eighth Division, he had naturally dealt with the Japs, and it was a positional battle.
At that time, the Japanese attacked, and the Eighty-Eighth Division was also condescending. But what was the result? Although the casualties were not as heavy as those of other troops, the losses were still considerable.
The organization of the 524th Regiment is considered complete, but some regiments have been damaged.
This was no longer the time for them to hide behind hard fortifications.
They were in an open area at this time. The enemy's artillery fire may come over at any time. And here, it is very likely to encounter an attack from the Japanese Navy.
"It would be nice if the group was here."
At this moment, Xie Jinyuan thought of that lunatic Tuanzuo again. If he were here, there would be many ways to keep the little devil here.
Is this Xie Jinyuan's dependence on the Dragon Boat Festival? K. During the long period of cooperation, Xie Jinyuan became more and more dependent on Dragon Boat Festival.
Of course, it's not that Xie Jinyuan has become stupid and can't fight anymore. It's just that his original tactics didn't work against the Japanese.
If his tactics worked, 700,000 Chinese soldiers would not have to die in the Songhu area.
He knew he needed to change, but he didn't have the means to do so.
But the Dragon Boat Festival is different. This crazy man always has unique tactics.
The battle to defend the Sihang Warehouse was a victory recognized by both the masters and the committee members.
So after thinking for a moment, he still said: "Contact the team leader immediately."
Zhu Shengzhong said: "Didn't Tuanzuo not allow us to contact him? He will contact us after taking the Izumo."
"Nonsense, don't contact the regiment. Are you going to fight this battle? The little devils are best at positional warfare. They use artillery first, and then the infantry charges after the artillery bombardment. The infantry can't rush forward, and the artillery bombards them. After the bombardment, the infantry Charge! Damn it, can our broken trenches block the enemy's artillery shells?"
Xie Jinyuan reprimanded that if he had any idea, he would not trouble Dragon Boat Festival at this time.
Because it is obvious that the battle on the Dragon Boat Festival is the most dangerous. There are only more than twenty people in the independent regiment, plus more than fifty naval forces with weak combat effectiveness. Not only do they have to capture the Izumo, but they also have to fend off the Japanese reinforcements.
Although the Japs in Zhangjiawan acted slowly, just when the Japs in Aikawa blew up the trestle in order to prevent Duanwu and others from boarding the dock, the Japs in Zhangjiawan arrived. The Dragon Boat Festival was attacked from both sides.
But Dragon Boat Festival just rolled his eyes and he had an idea.
While transferring the main force to the Japanese side in Zhangjiawan, he asked Lao Wang to lead ten men and use the heavy machine gun from the Japanese machine gun position to shoot wildly in the direction of the dock.
The shipyards are all wooden houses, and the heavy machine guns are very lethal to the Japanese hiding behind the wooden boards.
I don’t know how many of the Japs hiding at the door and windows were killed by stray bullets.
The Japanese could only retreat, or find a strong bunker, and block the windows and doors broken by machine guns to wait for reinforcements.
During the Dragon Boat Festival, while letting the remaining navy fire their guns randomly to attract the attention of the Zhangjiawan Japs, they and Zhao Beishan detoured back to the flank of the Zhangjiawan Japs, catching the little Japs off guard.
There are only three teams of Japs in Zhangjiawan, with a total of less than 150 people.
Their attention is all on the Chinese Navy near the port. He was shooting forward while advancing.
At this moment, Duanwu and his men came out from the flank.
All MP28 submachine guns, more than twenty people, can create a company's momentum in an instant.
The little Japs fell in pieces, two squad leaders were killed, and the remaining Japs fled.
Dragon Boat Festival will never miss this opportunity and orders everyone to pursue and destroy this group of Japanese.
But at this moment, the communications soldier came over and said: "Regiment seat, urgent contact from the regimental deputy."
Duanwu said helplessly to Zhao Beishan: "You lead the men to chase and deal with these little devils, then we can seize the dock with all our strength."
Zhao Beishan said worriedly: "Tuanzu, I'm afraid that the little Japs will sail away."
Duanwu said: "Don't worry, you can't run away. If the boat is at the dock, I will still worry. Now the boat is still in the dock, and they have to fill the dock with water before the boat can be driven out. Go ahead!"
"yes!"
After Zhao Beishan responded, he led his men to pursue him. At this time, Duanwu took the headset and asked: "Lao Xie, what's wrong?"
Xie Jinyuan: "Commander, I underestimated the marching speed of the Japs. The trenches are only dug one and a half meters deep, and there is no way to defend against the Japs' shells. The enemy is close, and there is no time."
Duanwu thought for a moment and said, "How did you set up the defense?"
Xie Jinyuan: "I dug a trench of more than 100 meters on the south and west side of Highland 103, and also dug more than 30 individual soldier pits. The Japs are still about six miles away from us. I think they will be there again. In about ten minutes, you can enter area 103."
Duanwu: "The single soldier pit is of no use. I saw the terrain there when I came here.
You immediately send out a force from the high ground in Daobei, detour around the flank of the Japanese convoy, and prepare to attack the Japanese. Let Zhu Shengzhong lead the team. Remember how many Japanese can be killed and how many can be rescued. Do not charge, entangle with the enemy, or engage in positional warfare. .
Once the enemy's artillery counterattacks, Zhu Shengzhong must withdraw immediately to avoid unnecessary casualties.
Besides, before the Japs arrive, you plant mines for me on the roadside. The Japs will keep their eyes on the road, and they won’t look at the roadside..."
"Tuanzuo, we have no mines."
Xie Jinyuan interrupted Duanwu.
Duanwu said angrily: "Lao Xie, what did you do? If you put a grenade together, wouldn't it be a landmine?
There are six grenades in a bundle, and five tabs are tied to the middle one. After the explosion, the exploding grenades will blow away other grenades, causing a chain explosion. This wave of explosions can knock the little devil into confusion.
At this time, let Sun Shiyu blow me up with a mortar. 80 caliber German artillery gun, this thing can hit tanks. The little devil's truck was just a pile of scrap metal in front of him.
Don't keep the cannonballs. If you use up all the cannonballs, I'll blow them up. We can't afford this thing, and even a single soldier can't lift it. Carrying it around is a burden.
So Lao Xie, please listen to me. You are holding on to me. I expect that the battle on my side will end in half an hour. Do you understand me? .....”
