Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 643: Breakout blocked

Tang Qiuli led his troops of more than 1,800 people. When they were about to leave the Taihang Mountains and reach the Henan border, the only exit from the mountain was tightly guarded by two regiments of Japanese troops. The way forward was blocked, and those behind were blocked.

The Japanese army followed the marching route of the troops and caught up with them. The situation was somewhat critical. (_--)

Seeing everyone's worried looks, Tang Qiuli forced himself to calm down. He knew very well that Shanhu and Sun Zhenbang were not worried about their own safety, but that they were the ones being protected. If they were not careful at this time, they would be

The Japanese army attacked from the front and back. Even if they could break out, the troops would suffer heavy losses. He did not doubt the bravery of the soldiers, but this unnecessary sacrifice should not be made unless it was a last resort. He must not make a desperate move and exchange the lives of the soldiers for himself.

Tang Qiuli could never achieve such safety.

The current situation cannot wait until dark. The chasing Japanese troops will immediately launch a search if they find that the troops suddenly disappear. After an encounter, anything can happen. Only the Japanese troops blocking the exit in front have not strengthened.

When on alert, use a surprise attack to attack.

He called Shan Hu, Sun Zhenbang, Company Commander Wu and Instructor Li of the Eighth Route Army together and told them the plan, which caused several people to object in unison. It was too risky and could not be risked with the safety of the division commander. Shan Hu and the others

The plan is that the troops will be divided into two parts: one to attack the Japanese troops at the mountain pass, and the other to block the Japanese troops chasing after them. The special guards and the fifth special operations team of the guard brigade are responsible for protecting the division commander from the flanks towards Linzhou, Henan.

When Shanhu and the others revealed their plan, Tang Qiuli knew in his heart that these people had no intention of leaving the Taihang Mountains, using their lives to attract the Japanese troops in front and behind, and create all conditions for a smooth breakout. Of course Tang Qiuli did not agree.

, several people were deadlocked in their opinions. At this time, the soldiers on alert came to report that the Japanese troops at the mountain pass had changed. As if they had received some order, they entered the position one after another, and obstacles at the mountain pass were also piled up.

Obviously, the Japanese army here must have received a notification of the pursuing Japanese army and wanted to block the mountain pass. Without further delay, they began to attack immediately before the Japanese army was deployed. Tang Qiuli stopped discussing and immediately issued an order to concentrate.

All the mortars and light and heavy machine guns of the army dealt the most violent blow to the Japanese army on the opposite side.

Sun Zhenbang's troops attacked from the front. The Guard Brigade and the Fifth Special Forces Team were assigned to the Eighth Route Army's reconnaissance company to seize the commanding heights on both sides. The covering troops protruded. At this time, the gunshots from behind became clearer and clearer. Tang Qiuli judged that the distance from here was no more than five minutes.

Six miles away, chasing them was a regiment of Japanese troops.

Okamura Neiji received a report that in the southern part of the Taihang Mountains, small-scale fighting had been happening continuously for two days. There should be a group of Chinese soldiers active. Okamura Neiji told the place where the fighting first occurred and where the fighting was last reported.

The locations were connected as a line on the map, and he understood that the purpose of this group of Chinese soldiers was to head towards Henan.

Dare to fight all the way among his own heavy troops, either because he has a special mission or to protect an important person. Otherwise, he will not risk being exposed and can hide completely. Okamura Neji has a sinister smile on his lips, no matter it is

What, it's not that easy to leave. He immediately ordered a regiment to follow their tracks. They must wipe out all the Chinese armed forces before they leave the Taihang Mountains. It's best to catch them alive. He wants to see if they are alive.

What kind of person dares to fight all the way?

Order the border areas adjacent to Henan to tighten the blockade and not let go of any suspicious person, especially the Shuzhanggou area, which is their only way to Henan. Since entering the Taihang Mountains, they have not had a real fight with the ** Division troops.

During the battle, those Chinese soldiers were as slippery as loaches. They would fly away with a single strike and could not be caught. They only saw bullets but no traces of people. This gave Okamura Neiji and the Japanese commanders at all levels a headache.

Of course Okamura Neiji would not let it go easily after he finally managed to seize a piece of China's armed forces. However, in his view, this was an extremely ordinary trivial matter. After issuing the order, he devoted all his energy to

In the upcoming siege of Huangya Cave, if he knew in the future that the one he had let go was the Chinese demon Tang Qiuli, Okamura Neji would have regretted it to the point of committing suicide, right?

Since Tang Qiuli's decision could not be changed, the troops quickly entered a fighting state, crouching in the withered grass and behind rocks, watching the busy Japanese soldiers setting up firepower points there.

The officer was shocked. Is this just a divisional security force?

Oh my God, there are more than thirty mortars, dozens of light and heavy machine guns, and four Type 92 infantry cannons. Even a field force cannot have so many heavy weapons to count the Eighth Route Army troops.

They couldn't come up with so many good guys all over the place. They were so rich that they could only envy them.

This is the standard equipment required by Shanhu for the guard brigade. He is equipped with weapons in accordance with the requirements of being surrounded by large-scale Japanese troops at any time. Even the amount of ammunition carried must exceed that of field infantry. Each guard brigade soldier, in addition to the

In addition to the submachine gun and the shell gun, you must also carry four mortar shells or two Type 92 infantry artillery shells. You must not leave your body for a moment, and you must carry them with you when you march.

Shan Hu has his own reasons. The temper of the division commander is that he often goes to the troops in various places. Who knows what unexpected situations may happen. He would rather the soldiers suffer than fall into the dangerous situation of running out of ammunition and food. He himself only has heavy machine gun bullets.

He carried nearly 10,000 rounds, and the captain

Leading by example, what else can the soldiers say? Over time, the soldiers have become accustomed to the extra twenty kilograms on their bodies. Once they don't have these, they feel light on their bodies. Unintentionally, the soldiers

I have developed good leg skills, which came in handy today.

The guard brigade and the fifth special operations team had already moved covertly towards the commanding heights on both sides. Tang Qiuli watched them in place and raised the muzzle of his gun. The head of a Japanese soldier appeared steadily in the crosshairs, and the Tang Long gun shot out a stream of flames.

, the crisp sound of gunfire suddenly sounded in the silent valley. The sound of gunfire was the signal of attack. There was a violent roar on the ground, and mortar shells and light and heavy machine gun bullets were smashed towards the Japanese troops.

The smoke was billowing, the fire was shining, the Japanese soldiers were building fortifications, the soil was flying, and shrapnel was roaring. With such a sudden blow, the Japanese soldiers were stunned at the time. It was also because these Japanese soldiers had stayed in this deserted wilderness for too long.

, I have been stationed here for more than ten days after being ordered to do so. Except for the mountains connected to the mountains and the weeds next to the weeds, I can't even see a ghost, let alone a flower girl. Everyone farts so hard that it makes me feel cold.

The wild animals that occasionally ran past in panic were also rare things for these extremely bored Japanese soldiers. They made bets on whether they were male or female. After receiving the orders from above, everyone from the commander to the ordinary soldiers did not take it seriously, except for the little ones.

Are they Kuchina militants? How many heads have they grown, and they dare to charge into the thousands of brave Japanese Imperial Army?

After receiving this fierce blow, he covered his head and turned around, cursing the superior who reported the situation in his heart. He was blind and farted. Is this a small group of Chinese armed forces? It is not a brigade of the ** Division, there are not so many.

The artillery fire must be blocked, otherwise there will be no good fruits to eat. The Japanese fortifications were blown to pieces, and the soldiers guarding them were almost killed and injured in the first round of shelling.

The Japanese soldiers on both sides, under the command of the officers, quickly filled the gap in the valley passage. At the same time, the Japanese soldiers camped behind also rushed to the forward position. As soon as the Japanese troops on both sides moved, the fifth special operations team and the guard brigade also

When the enemy moved, the submachine guns sent flying stones, and they occupied the commanding heights on both wings without much effort. Seeing the opportunity, Tang Qiuli immediately ordered his troops to pass quickly along the breach.

Just as we rushed to the Japanese fortifications, a large number of Japanese soldiers arrived. The Japanese troops from these two regiments took turns guarding the mountain pass every three days. The troops who were not on duty were free to rest and just take a nap, but inadvertently

A large-depth defense was formed. Tang Qiuli commanded the troops to make a sudden attack, which only opened the first gap, and a Japanese regiment came behind.

The soldiers of Sun Zhenbang's troops who rushed at the front fell to pieces. The troops behind were trapped in the fortifications by the intensive firepower of the Japanese army and could not move forward. Two or three of the guard soldiers beside Tang Qiuli were hit. There was a sound in his ears.

The bullets whizzed by, with Mei Ting and Mei Xue behind them. At the critical moment, they rushed over with all their strength, otherwise, they would be dumped by the Japanese army.

He put a new magazine on the Tang Long Gun, stood up and was about to rush forward. A dozen soldiers from the special guard rushed over and tightly protected him, Mei Ting and Mei Xue in the middle, forming a human bunker around him.

Anxious Tang Qiuli cursed, but was unable to break through the protection of more than a dozen soldiers. The gunshots from behind became closer and closer, and the pursuers also arrived.

A mortar shell exploded nearby. Tang Qiuli protected Mei Ting and Mei Xue tightly under his body. Above him were seven or eight special guard soldiers. There was a roar in his ears. He smiled bitterly to himself, could it be that today

What do you want to explain here? Even if we can break through, the casualties of the troops will not be small. Did we insist on going our own way, which led to the current situation?

Shaking off the dirt on his body, Tang Qiuli saw blood oozing from the bodies of several special guard soldiers who were covering him. Fortunately, they were not seriously injured. Mei Ting looked calm, straightened her messy hair, and smiled sweetly at him. Mei Xue

His face was a little pale, and there was a somewhat panicked look in his eyes.

Shan Hu has sent a squadron of troops to stop the Japanese army from behind. Tang Qiuli looked at the situation and realized that a fierce battle was inevitable. He ordered a group of special guards to protect the safety of Mei Ting and Mei Xue, even if the sky fell.

Guan, after saying that, he stood up and was about to join the fight, but was held down tightly by the soldiers of the special guard.

Tang Qiuli yelled angrily and threatened, including shooting, dismissal, and confinement. None of it worked. He struggled to raise his head and saw two planes appearing on the horizon. The roar of the engines came immediately. He secretly complained in his heart that the Japanese army

We also called for planes to assist in the battle. It's going to be a bad day.
