Anti-Japanese War: From Becoming Chu Yunfei to Rising

Chapter 80 Three days? Four hours! (Please subscribe and give me a monthly ticket)

"Order, the second and third battalions to prepare for battle, and move immediately to the north of Jiuguan after nightfall."

Chu Yunfei finally reminded: "Brother Ligong, give a heads up to the 12th Division to avoid any misunderstandings."

"Yes!"

Chu Yunfei didn’t have to wait long at the command center.

The call from the 358th Regiment Command was made to Chu Yunfei.

"Report to the brigade commander, the enemy in Guangou has been cleared out, and all units are currently speeding up the cleanup of the battlefield."

Chu Yunfei was naturally very satisfied with this: "I have already recorded a merit for you."

"Yes, Captain."

Qian Bojun grinned and hung up the phone.

This battle.

Under the command of Chu Yunfei, Qian Bojun and his battalion were the main combat force.

In addition, the mountain artillery battalion and heavy mortar battalion provided fire support.

With only 2,000 artillery shells and more than 130 casualties, the defenders in the trench were completely wiped out.

As for how many Japanese devils there are in Guangou.

Because no prisoners were taken.

Their casualties can only be measured from the information found on the bodies and the number of captured items.

Inside Guangou at this time.

The commander of the eighth company, Liu Wang, was leading his troops to clean up the battlefield from south to north.

We walked to a valley.

The ground was littered with broken corpses and the blood-stained land was mixed with khaki military uniforms.

Damaged guns, radio stations, and even military flags were scattered all over the place.

It was a mess, like hell.

When the fishy smell came, Liu Wang and others couldn't help but frown.

"Captain, this."

Liu Wang tilted his head and gave a loud order: "It is most likely that it was hit by our artillery. First row, pay attention to the surroundings and beware of any fish that slipped through the net. Everyone else, cover your mouth and nose."

"Yes!"

The soldiers came forward in twos and threes to clean up the battlefield.

The strong smell of blood and the tragic scene irritated the nerves of many new recruits.

A bullet would at most make a hole in the body.

"After confirming that the battlefield is safe, clean up the battlefield."

The soldiers were in groups of three or four, following the previous training process.

Even when cleaning the battlefield.

There are also occasional gunshots and explosions.

These Japanese devils don't take their own lives seriously, so naturally they won't respect or honor those who died in battle.

A little careless.

It would detonate the booby trap placed under the corpse, or even lead to a surprise attack by the Japanese soldiers who were pretending to be dead.

"Bang~!"

"Bang~!"

"If you feel something is wrong, just shoot again. Our 358th Brigade is not short of bullets. We must prioritize our own safety."

The veterans taught by example, and the new recruits followed orders and did their job.

Everyone performs their duties and the efficiency is extremely high.

Twenty-seventh Division Headquarters.

The chief of staff stood beside Feng Anbang, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

After the gunfire stopped.

Feng Anbang opened his eyes while lying on the camp bed.

When he opened his eyes, he found the chief of staff standing next to him.

Seeing that his expression was a little unnatural, Feng Anbang naturally prepared for the worst.

"The gunfire has stopped. Is the battle over?"

"Yes"

Feng Anbang raised his eyebrows, thinking that the situation might not be good. "With such a big commotion, if the attack fails, then his 358th Brigade will only be a mere decoration. Let Zhou Lie and his regiment prepare. If they still can't take it down tomorrow, we'll take over."

The Chief of Staff shook his head and explained, "Commander-in-Chief... since the infantry attack was launched, the battle in Guangou was over in less than two and a half hours, and it has now entered the final stage."

"If nothing unexpected happens, all the Japanese in Guangou should have been wiped out."

Feng Anbang was extremely surprised: "Total annihilation?"

"Ah."

The chief of staff looked strange: "Come to think of it, could it be that our siege earlier caused the Japanese to consume a lot of ammunition, so they got an advantage?"

"Get a bargain?"

Feng Anbang smiled and said, "A regiment besieged the Japanese in Guangou and suffered more than 600 casualties in three hours. Needless to say, such combat effectiveness is self-evident."

The chief of staff sighed, seemingly unwilling to give in.

He noticed what his old friend was thinking.

Feng Anbang said quietly: "Based on our previous experience fighting the Japanese army, the Japanese army will carry at least seven days of ammunition and supplies."

"After the siege began, the offensive took less than two days at most. It's impossible for the Japanese to use up their ammunition so quickly."

After a pause.

Feng Anbang praised out loud: "Now it seems that Chu Yunfei is worthy of his reputation, and his 358th Brigade is indeed the trump card in Yan Laoxi's hand!"

"Commander, after all, these little devils are an isolated group. No matter who leads the attack, we will be able to win in the end. If we were given so many artillery pieces, our casualties would not be so great."

Feng Anbang smiled slightly and said nothing. He just stood in front of the battle map, quietly thinking about the next countermeasures and actions.

The 358th Division and the th Brigade were the main forces for the subsequent counterattack and encirclement of Jiuguan.

Who is the leader and who is the follower.

Huang Shaolong, deputy commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone, did not give a clear explanation.

But it's obviously a chore.

The Japanese troops besieging Guangou were in a dominant position and were sure to win the battle.

Counterattack on the old pass is to attack from above.

Not only were they at a disadvantage in terrain, but they also had to face the Japanese invaders' heavy artillery and aerial fighters.

in other words.

The old level needs human lives to fill it!
The Motoutan Command Center at the same time.

Chu Yunfei made a phone call to report the general course of the operation to Huang Shaolong.

It has also been confirmed that the enemy's 77th Regiment Commander Li Dengxingyi was killed.

The entire headquarters was in an uproar! Chu Yunfei declared that he would annihilate the Guangou defenders within three days.

Many combat staff officers also believed that Chu Yunfei was exaggerating.

To put it another way, even if it cannot be taken down within three days, Huang Shaorong, an outsider, cannot hold Chu Yunfei accountable for his crimes.

It doesn't matter.

From the arrival of the main force of Chu Yunfei's troops to the annihilation of the enemy in Guangou.

It took less than six hours.

Chu Yunfei's sonorous promise echoed.

Three days! In three days, we will completely wipe out the defenders in the trench.

It didn't even take three days; the battle was over in six hours.

"This Chu Yunfei is truly a genius commander!"

"The combat effectiveness of the 358th Brigade really exceeded our expectations. It is truly worthy of being the ace force of the Second War Zone."

"He is from Wutai, a direct descendant of Huangpu, good at fighting, and only in his early thirties. He can really be called a young hero!"

"Young and promising, young and promising!"

"As far as I know, this person is not married yet."

Huang Shaohong immediately stopped everyone's discussion.

If they continue chatting, they might become a matchmaker in the next second.

It's too late to start thinking about these things before the battle is over.

"Send a telegram to the Second World War Commander's Headquarters."

"Yes!"

Just as the situation on the front line of Niangzi Pass was improving.

The Xinkou front at this time.

Problems arose on the front line of Dabaishui Village where the 10th Division was stationed.

The Japanese invaders assembled dozens of artillery pieces and launched an artillery bombardment on the anti-artillery platoon positions for nearly fifteen minutes.

Bombs and shells rained down, plus air strikes.

In just a few minutes, the soldiers were blown to pieces.

Dust filled the sky, and the soldiers of the anti-tank artillery platoon vowed to live and die with their positions.

In the end, no one survived the Japanese attack and all were killed in battle.

There is a capable person among these little devils.

While launching the attack under the cover of artillery fire.

They captured cattle and sheep from people's homes along the way and used them in this attack.

These damn Japanese used cattle, sheep and other livestock to block bullets.

The battle lines are shaky.

General Wei Lihuang personally led the 5th Independent Brigade north to provide assistance.

General Wei discovered after arriving at the front line.

The frontline troops were numerous, suffered heavy casualties, and had no unified command.

Immediately redivided and adjusted the deployment.

In order to ensure the unity of the front-line command situation, the command authority was adjusted on the evening of the 14th.

Chen Changjie commanded the 21st Division, the 2nd and 3rd Independent Brigades (minus the 4th Regiment), and the newly formed 4th Brigade, and was responsible for advancing forward and attacking the main Japanese forces from the rear, and flanking the attack on the Nanhuaihua front line.

General Hao Mengling commanded the 54th Division, the 4th Regiment of the 3rd Independent Brigade, the 218th and 217th Brigades, were responsible for frontal defense, and waited for an opportunity to counterattack the Japanese invaders.

Fifteenth.

The defenders on the front line of Dabaishui Village.

Once again, they were faced with a tank assault that infuriated all officers and men.

After the entire anti-tank artillery platoon was sacrificed and the anti-tank artillery was destroyed.

These officers and soldiers could only destroy tanks and armored vehicles by digging anti-tank trenches and delaying them.

Then fight with your life.

In order to focus on attacking the 10th Division under Li Mo'an.

The Japanese air force carried out ten air raids in one day.

The entire Dabaishui Village was almost razed to the ground by the Japanese invaders.

The 10th Division, which suffered heavy casualties, had no choice but to abandon its position and evacuate to the second-line position.

And with the retreat of the 10th Division.

It seems to have some chain effect that cannot be described logically.

First, the Yanzhuang position, which served as a salient, was immediately besieged on three sides by the Japanese invaders.

It was declared lost that night.

The Xinkou Left Wing Corps was mainly responsible for the line from Xinkou to Weijiazhuang.

It is mainly garrisoned by the elite 10th, 83rd and 85th Divisions of the Central Army.

This place is originally a river valley area, relative to the Xinkou Central Group and the Right Wing Group.

It is easy to attack but difficult to defend.

The main forces responsible for the attack here were the Independent Mixed Brigade 11 commanded by Suzuki Shigeyasu and the remnants of the Independent Mixed Brigade 15.

Logically speaking, although it does not have the corresponding air superiority,

But with the Central Army's combat effectiveness and quality, there would be no problem in holding the position, let alone defeating the Japanese army.

However, with the fall of Yanzhuang, Mengteng and Dabaishui Village positions,
The entire Xinkou battlefield instantly fell into a passive situation.

The front-line headquarters at this time.

Wei Lihuang's face turned pale as he looked at the report that came in.

The Japanese invaders seemed to have gone crazy.

They attack at all costs.

The loss came at the cost of five tanks, a light bomber, and several hundred casualties (the 10th Division's battle report estimated that many were killed and wounded).

Made progress and broke through their first line of defense

Just when Wei Lihuang had not yet figured out why the Japanese army suddenly behaved so abnormally.

A telegram was sent to the front-line headquarters.

"Commander Wei, Commander Yan called and said that all the troops in the Niangzi Pass area have completely wiped out the defenders in the Guangou."

"All units are launching attacks on Jiuguan according to the plan. Commander Yan, please rest assured that the Xinkou defenders have no worries!"

It feels strange to have to look at the map and use my brain to think.
