Age of Conquest Reborn

Chapter 986: Showing Prestige

The bullets that covered their heads like a shower suddenly became sparse. The Japanese soldiers hiding under the steep slope breathed a sigh of relief. Since the Chinese soldiers stopped shooting, there must be something wrong with the ammunition. This is a good opportunity.

We had to continue charging, but a Japanese captain jumped out, pointed his sword at Xiyun Peak, and shouted loudly: "Give me the opportunity to kill!"

As soon as he finished speaking, his pupils narrowed sharply due to fear. From the top of his head, countless small black dots fell, with weak shining sparks, like elves dancing in the dark night. Did the Japanese captain know that this was fatal?

Thing, countless grenades were being thrown down. The next sentence, he immediately shouted: "The Chinese soldiers are working with hand cannons, please take cover quickly."

The ** Brigade of the 19th Group Army deployed two regiments of troops on the front line of Xiyunfeng. Thousands of "squeaking" smoking grenades were smashed down on the head, with flashes of fire and shrapnel flying everywhere.

, the Japanese soldiers gathered at the bottom of the steep slope could dodge the bullets fired from above, but they could not dodge the grenades.

Screams continued, flesh and blood flew everywhere, broken shrapnel, flying, whistling, rotating and cutting into the bodies of the Japanese soldiers. Looking from a distance, a dazzling fire suddenly burst out halfway up Xiyun Peak, and then,

The sound of explosions echoed in the night. The grenades thrown by the weaker Central Army soldiers did not hit the target, but they exploded into rubble, which became a lethal weapon that killed the Japanese soldiers.

Chi Zifeng saw the way, but he shouted in this voice: "All brothers, throw the grenades two or three seconds later, and save them all to explode on the top of the little devil's head, so that the attackers have no place to hide."

Exploding grenade in the air

The bullets became a nightmare for the Japanese soldiers. The shrapnel easily penetrated the helmets and blew the Japanese soldiers' heads into rotten watermelons. Chi Zifeng used more than 20,000 grenades to turn half of Xiyun Peak into a bloody massacre for the Japanese soldiers.

Slaughterhouse.

Almost few of the Japanese soldiers who participated in the first attack wave were still alive. The Japanese soldiers hiding behind realized that something was not going well, so they turned around and ran back, becoming the living targets of the ** brigade soldiers. After throwing the grenades, they again

He picked up his gun, kicked the retreating Japanese soldiers' butts, and fired fiercely. In less than an hour, of the two regiments of more than 6,000 Japanese soldiers who participated in the attack on Xiyun Peak, only a thousand or so of them made it back alive.

Yamashita Fengwen, who had been paying attention to the battlefield, witnessed the whole process. He put down the telescope dejectedly, almost fainting from heartache. It was not that he had never seen a big scene of blood and flesh flying, but on a small Xiyunfeng position, a charge,

More than four thousand brave imperial soldiers were shattered. Such a scene shocked all Japanese officers who paid attention to the battle.

Yamashita Fengwen was confused. According to the normal effect of the sudden shelling for an hour and a half, the Xiyunfeng position was occupied by Chinese government soldiers, and the casualties should be more than half. However, with the intensity of the firepower just now, the Chinese soldiers did not seem to suffer any casualties.

, why is this happening? In less than an hour of fighting, a main brigade was crippled alive.

The Japanese army left mutilated corpses everywhere and retreated like a tide. The follow-up attacking troops did not dare to continue the attack. Chi Zifeng laughed loudly, "It's so damn good. Pass the order. It's time for the little devils to shell.

Hide in the shell-proof cave so that we don't suffer such an immediate loss."

As soon as Chi Zifeng returned to the brigade headquarters, the Japanese retaliatory bombardment started immediately. The phone on the shell box suddenly rang rapidly. Chi Zifeng picked up the phone and asked, "Are you Chi Zifeng?" Commander Guo Huawen's voice immediately sounded.

rush

into his ears, "Commander, I am Chi Zifeng. I was at the forward position just now. It was really fun. I estimate that I killed four to five thousand little Japs." Chi Zifeng didn't wait for Guo Huawen to ask anything. He couldn't suppress his excitement and shouted loudly.

shouted.

Guo Huawen on the other end of the phone was so angry that he yelled, "Chi Zifeng, you bastard, as a brigade commander, responsible for commanding Xiyun Peak, you actually went to the front line to participate in the battle. Okay, you don't want to fight."

Well, I will withdraw you and become the platoon leader." Chi Zifeng was startled and said quickly: "Commander, I won't do it next time. Just this time, aren't my hands itchy?"

Guo Huawen was still angry and continued: "Just this time, by the way, what are the casualties of the troops? I heard the Japanese artillery fire was quite fierce in the city." Chi Zifeng replied: "Commander, don't worry, first

This shelling resulted in less than 200 troop casualties, thanks to a squad leader named Jin Baozhu. The casualties in this shelling are not yet known, and will be reported to you later."

Guo Huawen put down the phone. The situation at Xiyun Peak made him full of confidence in whether he could hold Duyun. Such a ferocious bombardment by the Japanese army resulted in less than 200 casualties, which was far beyond his expectation. Xiyun Peak was like an iron chain.

The door bolt is firmly in front of Duyun City. If the Japanese army does not capture Xiyun Peak, they will not be able to approach Duyun City at all. Unless they use large-caliber long-range artillery to bombard the city, the killing effect on the troops will be greatly reduced.

.

The sound of gunfire from the direction of Xiyunfeng continued almost all night. By about seven o'clock in the morning, the ** brigade had repelled four Japanese brigade-sized charges. Yamashita Fengfumi had to order the troops to stop the attack.

He was unwilling and helpless. All the artillery shells of the baggage troops were consumed in the four attacks. If he attacked again, he would have to use the soldiers' bodies to block the bullets of the Chinese soldiers.

Xiyun Peak fell silent. The corpses of Japanese soldiers were covered halfway up the mountain. This was a line of death. As long as the Japanese soldiers attacked here, they would be severely killed as if they were Central Army soldiers emerging from the ground. Yamashita

Fengwen gasped as if he had a toothache. The Ninth Division, which was responsible for the main attack, could hardly find a fully formed regiment. Thousands of soldiers' corpses were left behind, and they couldn't even climb halfway up Xiyun Peak.

Go up.

If there are enough artillery shells, Yamashita Fengwen will never care about the casualties of the soldiers, and will continue to attack without giving the Chinese government troops a chance to breathe until they capture this damn mountain. But now it can't be done, and the suffering can only continue

He waited for the cannonballs to be sent up from the rear. He vowed to use cannonballs to flatten the mountain that had swallowed the lives of thousands of imperial soldiers.

Yamashita Fengfumi looked ugly, and said to Koji Shinno, the head of the Military Intelligence Headquarters behind him: "Shinno-kun, I want to know which China army we have now, what is the number and the name of the commander?" Koji Shinno looked carefully.

His Excellency the Commander had a deathly look on his face.

Knowing that the angry commander was not easy to serve, he replied cautiously: "According to the intelligence we have, the one defending Duyun City is the 19th Group Army of the Chinese government army. The commander is Guo Huawen, with the rank of lieutenant general. As for

It’s the Chinese army that’s defending Xiyun Peak, and we don’t have detailed information yet.”

Yamashita Fengfumi snorted coldly, stared at Koji Shinno with an unkind look, and said in a cold tone: "I want to know that it was the Chinese army that caused losses to the imperial army, and the details of his commander.

Once we capture Duyun City, I will personally cut off his head to pay homage to the shattered imperial soldiers."

Shinno Koji respectfully agreed and hurriedly took the opportunity to slip away. Yamashita Fengfumi's look just now was like a poisonous snake, making Shinno's heart beat violently. Your Excellency, the Commander, has been in a bad mood recently. He didn't know that the unlucky guy bumped into him.

At the muzzle of the gun, when he knew that Yamashita Fengfumi could not be seen, Ninye let out a sigh of relief and found that his shirt was soaked through.

The morning in late June and early July in southern Guizhou was originally a bright season. Because of the dense jungle, Xiyun Peak was even more dreamlike. But today, in the light mist that slowly flows between the woods, there are scattered mist.

The lingering smell and strong smoke

The heavy smell of blood made it almost impossible to see the original appearance of the entire Xiyun Peak main position. There was scorched earth everywhere. The originally lush trees were torn into pieces by artillery shells, and the originally green grass turned yellow as if burned by wildfire.

.

Chi Zifeng carefully inspected the various trenches. In fact, there were no trenches at all. He was just stepping on the scorched earth, one foot deep and one foot shallow. The Japanese's ferocious shelling changed the original terrain of Xiyun Peak.

and the terrain, they repelled four Japanese charges in a row, and the ** brigade also suffered more than 2,000 casualties. Many bombproof holes were blown down, and the brothers were suffocated to death inside.

Fortunately, there are these anti-gun holes, otherwise, even if the ** brigade is exhausted, it will not be able to defend its position. This is most of the night. Chi Zifeng has finally seen the ferocity of the Japanese soldiers. After the Japanese army retreated, he

The first order issued was to strengthen and deepen the anti-gun holes on the original basis. This is a life-saving thing and should not be taken carelessly.

At noon, the Japanese army still did not attack. Chi Zifeng took this opportunity to sneak into Duyun City along the traffic trench and rushed directly to the group army headquarters. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the commander Guo Huawen talking to an unfamiliar colonel.

He was very young and wore a military uniform different from his own. "Report to the commander, Chi Zifeng, commander of the ** Brigade, has come to report and ask for instructions from the commander!" Chi Zifeng didn't care what kind of god this strange colonel was. In his eyes, there was only

Guo Huawen is alone.

Guo Huawen turned around and said with a hint of surprise: "Zifeng, just as I was about to call you, you came. Sit down quickly and let me introduce you. This is the liaison officer sent by Vice Chairman Tang, Colonel Chu Tian. This

He is a fierce general of our group army, Major General Chi Zifeng, commander of the ** Brigade, and his troops are defending on Xiyun Peak."

According to the rules, Chu Tian first saluted Chi Zifeng and said: "Brigadier Chi, Commander Guo has mentioned you many times. With one brigade, he defeated more than 90,000 Japanese soldiers with bloody wounds and failed to climb Xiyun Peak.

Half a step later, Brigadier Chi can bear the praise of a fierce general." Chi Zifeng's eyes narrowed, that Vice Chairman Tang was like thunder and had an outstanding reputation. It was said that even Chairman Chiang was afraid of him.

Why did he come to the group army? Chi Zifeng couldn't help but look at Chu Tian a few more times.
