Chapter 168: Italy bombarded Sakata(1/3)
"The brigade commander, there was news from behind that the prisoner-of-war camp was attacked."
A staff officer hurried over with the latest telegram and handed it to the commander of the Fourth Brigade, Pinglu Yongfu.
"Is the prisoner-of-war camp attacked?" Pinglu Yongfu was a little surprised when he heard this, but soon he was no longer surprised.
The main force of the Fourth Brigade was dispatched in full swing, which was an opportunity for the enemy to attack the prisoner-of-war camp.
If it were him, Pinglu Yongfu, would have done this.
After receiving the telegram, he looked down and said, "The prisoners of war that ran out did not take the opportunity to destroy our defense zone, but disappeared. It seemed that they had escaped, but they still made the strongholds in the rear be wary."
In front of us, the defense area of the Fourth Brigade was empty, and these thousands of prisoners of war could take the opportunity to harvest some strongholds with a few artillery pieces and destroy the rear of the Fourth Brigade.
But they disappeared, and it seemed that they were scared by the Fourth Brigade and ran away.
As for the absence of prisoners of war, this is not a big problem.
Once the 129th Division in front of us is destroyed, many prisoners can be captured.
Prisoners, the empire has never been short of.
Although the battle attack of Sakata United this afternoon was not smooth, the failure for a while does not mean that Sakata Nobute is incompetent.
"Hayi." The staff officer went back to call.
"Brig Team Commander, at this time, the prisoner-of-war camp was suddenly captured, and thousands of prisoners of war disappeared. Do you think they will suddenly appear behind us?" Kasahara Koizumi said suspiciously to Yuo Hirari.
"Even if they suddenly appear behind us, can thousands of prisoners of war threaten us with bare hands?" Yuuo Pinglu disdained, "In the past, more than 20,000 people from their 27th Division and 72nd Division were beaten down by Sakata Nobute. Now, only thousands of prisoners of war can they come to die without bare hands?"
"What if they have a way to get the weapon?"
"What method? Our blockade line is so strict. Thousands of people's weapons are transported in. Do you think it's possible!" Pinglu Yongfu asked back.
"But they used several artillery guns to attack the prisoner-of-war camp. How did this artillery come from?" Kasahara Koizumi said.
"I don't know how the artillery came from." Pinglu Yongfu shook his head and said, "I have already made the rear more vigilant. On our side, I still say that in the past, the 27th Division and the 72nd Division were not our opponents. Now even if these thousands of prisoners of war appeared with weapons, they would not be able to make any waves."
"Yes, too." Kasahara Koizumi nodded and said nothing more.
In front of the powerful Fourth Brigade, thousands of prisoners of war soldiers, even if they possess weapons, are not a threat.
They dare to die and destroy it.
...
On the second day, when the first ray of sun shone on the land, all the Japanese soldiers who could fight in the Sakata United had finished their breakfast.
The soldiers wiped the bayonets and loaded the bullets, each of them looked extremely serious.
They are the Third Regiment and the Army of Glory!
The battle yesterday was their shame.
Today, they want to make all the enemies on Cangyun Ridge disappear!
boom!
boom!
boom!
...
The artillery of the Sakata United bombed Zhang Dabiao's position in the morning glow.
The shells exploded countless sand and gravels and plants on the Zifeng position, mixed with flying flesh and blood.
"Kill the dick!"
Nobute Sakata personally waved his command knife and ordered more than 3,000 imperial troops to attack with all their strength.
"Run!"
"Kill!"
...
More than three thousand imperial soldiers yelled and rushed to the mountain position on Zhang Dabiao's side.
Behind more than three thousand Imperial Army, there were all the Japanese soldiers who were pressed by the Sakata United.
Nobuzhe Sakata wanted to use the Imperial Army to consume the ammunition and firepower of Zhang Dabiao's first battalion, and then more than 3,000 Japanese soldiers took the opportunity to break through Zhang Dabiao's position.
Facing the attack of thousands of enemies, Zhang Dabiao is under great pressure.
Before long, the soldiers suffered two companies of casualties.
"I can't stand it anymore, retreat to the main peak position of Cangyunling!" Zhang Dabiao did not force the troops and ordered the troops to give up the position in time.
The Imperial Army took the lead in rushing to Zhang Dabiao's second peak position, but had not had time to take a breath.
boom!
boom!
boom!
...
The explosives left by Zhang Dabiao on the position exploded, and the explosives bloomed among the imperial army's crowd, and many imperial army soldiers fell in pools of blood.
"The cunning Eighth Route Army, fortunately I asked the Imperial Army to charge, otherwise, the casualties would fall on the Imperial Army, and the cost would be too high." Seeing this, Nobute Sakata cursed and ordered the troops to continue the attack and not stop.
Poor Imperial Army soldiers, they were gunned and continued to attack the second mountain position.
boom!
boom!
boom!
...
Landmines bloomed among the Imperial Army's crowd, and mortars and grenade shells fell from their heads.
A large number of soldiers of the Imperial Army fell down.
There were even retreating soldiers of the Imperial Army.
But the Japanese soldiers behind them shot and killed them without hesitation, forcing them to the enemy.
The soldiers of the Imperial Army, who had heavy casualties, could only attack the new secondary peak position again.
The battle was fought from morning to noon, and the new secondary peak position was finally occupied.
But one-third of the thousands of soldiers of the Imperial Army were left and could no longer fight.
Nobute Sakata temporarily stopped the attack and let the troops have lunch. After a brief rest, he finally launched a fierce attack on the main peak position of Cangyunling.
boom!
boom!
boom!
...
The power of the artillery fire that covered the charge was exerted to the extreme. Sand and stones flew around Cangyun Ridge, and the main peak position was blown into honeycomb coal.
"Press the Japanese down and push them down." Li Yunlong personally controlled a heavy machine gun and fired at the charge of the Japanese.
Da da da da da!
Da da da da da!
Da da da da da!
boom!
boom!
...
Although the firepower of the new regiment of light and heavy machine guns was knocked out a lot, it still exerted strong firepower.
Grenade launcher mortars and all continued bombing, and even engaged in artillery battles with the Japanese.
But the New First Regiment was outnumbered and was rushed to the main peak position by the Japanese soldiers from the Sakata United.
The two sides had a fierce hand-to-hand battle on the main peak position of Cangyunling, and Li Yunlong was forced to drive off the main peak position of Cangyunling.

The main peak position he regained did not defend for long and was lost again.
Then Li Yunlong took it back.
The main peak position changed hands repeatedly, and the battle was dark, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.
At night, everyone had a rare rest for a night.
The sun rose again on the third day, and the fierce fighting began again.
In the end, the casualties of the New First Regiment had reached two-thirds, and they once again lost their main peak position and were surrounded by a mountain.
