Seeing the Japanese army that finally arrived in the 15th Brigade, and arrived outside Dongsheng City, no defensive positions were arranged. Behind them, only a pseudo-Mongolian cavalry division was arranged, He Zhengdao also felt that the Japanese were too arrogant.

You know, it is not long before dark at this moment. If you are a cautious Japanese commander, you should set up a defensive position in the rear. You may even set up a battalion to avoid the disadvantages of the war and have to camp overnight to rest.

Hearing the information feedback from the reconnaissance brigade, He Zhengdao also began to speculate that the Japanese army was planning to take down a defensive position in one go and go to Dongsheng City, which had relatively better conditions to rest tonight.

After making this analysis, He Zhengdao also laughed and said with anger: "Okay! Do you really think our column is easy to mess with? He ordered Xu Renyi to transfer the Second Regiment to the position. In addition, he notified the artillery brigade to prepare.

Secondly, generate electricity to the cavalry division so that they can expand the encirclement. The reconnaissance brigade's reconnaissance battalion is responsible for clearing the cavalry posts of the pseudo-Mongolian cavalry. The other second division's reserve troops and the remaining reconnaissance brigade are ready to counterattack at any time."

After the order was issued, Chief of Staff Wang Tianlin said: "Commander, are you planning to deal with them overnight?"

‘Yes! I originally wanted to use this Japanese army to form a brigade to temper our troops. Now it seems that the Japanese dynasties simply ignore our existence. Why do we miss such a good counterattack opportunity?

The most important thing is, look at the current time. It is less than two hours left before dark. This means that even if the Japanese ask for the plane for support, they will have to wait until tomorrow. Can't they still solve the problem of being in the wild in one night?

Just a pseudo-Mongol cavalry division dares not set up camps or set up blocking lines. This obviously looks down on us! Since that is the case, it is necessary for the Japanese to know how serious the price of despising us is.

What's more, if we finish this battle earlier, we can also start to complete the goals set by the battle. To be honest, I really don't care much about this invading mixed brigade. More things are, I want to meet their divisions!’

According to the situation detected by the reconnaissance brigade before the war, the Japanese army dispatched a division, two mixed brigades and a cavalry corps in the Suiyuan area. It seemed that the troops were very strong, but in fact, there were not many scattered places.

If this attacking mixed brigade can be solved overnight, I believe it will be a major blow to the Japanese! At least the current anti-Japanese war has not yet been destroyed.

With the order from He Zhengdao, the cavalry division, which was originally a reserve team, began to move towards the east victory. At the same time, he went around the reconnaissance cavalry camp behind the Japanese and began to clear out the reconnaissance cavalry sent by the pseudo-Mongolian Cavalry Division.

Only by solving these sentinels can the column's cavalry division get the best chance of raid. The artillery brigade, which also brought the mountain artillery to capture the last time, began to enter the artillery position and wait for the Japanese artillery squadron to fire.

At the same time, the Japanese infantry brigade, which was the main attacker, also began to prepare for the battle. Compared with the previous drag of the puppet army, the Japanese infantry brigade that received the order quickly arranged the attack formation.

Looking at these Japanese troops moving slowly forward, the Red Army in the camp also knew that the next tough battle they needed to face. But seeing the reinforcements sent to the positions one after another, the officers and soldiers in the group felt much more at ease.

No matter what, there are also continuous replenishment of reinforcements behind them. As long as the Japanese army is destroyed, I believe it will be a huge shock to other Japanese troops!

While the Japanese army was waiting, the previously exposed machine gun positions were quickly transferred. For the firepower reconnaissance before the Japanese war, once an attack was launched, the tactics of attacking the machine gun positions were first known. The first regiment commander also knew about it.

Therefore, when building machine gun positions, a regiment built three positions for each heavy machine gun on the position. As long as there is time to transfer, these machine guns will be transferred, causing all the Japanese to reconnaissance to fail.

What's more, they used only one-third of the heavy machine guns to deal with the puppet army. The remaining heavy machine gun firepower points have not been exposed so far. Just waiting for the Japanese to rush into the position, they gave Japanese an unexpected surprise!

The mixed brigade that attacked Suixi this time was also equipped with two artillery brigades. One artillery brigade was equipped with twelve four-type 75mm mountain cannons. The other artillery brigade was equipped with the four-type 75mm cavalry field cannons.

The former column also seized a batch of artillery, and the latter type of artillery is farther than the former in terms of range. However, both types of artillery have one advantage for the Japanese army, that is, it is conducive to carrying and transportation.

Although in terms of artillery, the attacking Japanese army has more advantages than the artillery brigades of the column. However, the artillery brigades with terrain advantage basically don’t have to worry about the Japanese artillery bombardment. Because the Japanese cannot attack at all.

When choosing to build a blocking position, He Zhengdao specifically checked the terrain. At this moment, the positions of the artillery Brigade Mountain Artillery Battalion were built according to the back slope. Even if the Japanese army discovered it, their shells would be knocked away.

Just after two Japanese artillery brigades, one of them opened the rack, under the order of Nagamo's kiss Ichiro, they quickly launched a shelling on the Red Army's defensive positions. Looking at the artillery shells falling from the sky, the officers and soldiers on the positions knew that they were about to start.

‘Hurry into the anti-aircraft hole, watch the observation posts, don’t let the Japanese touch easily!’

As the defenders on the position went into the closest anti-aircraft hole. Except for the machine gunners hiding in the observation post on the position, all the soldiers scattered outside the position retreated into the anti-aircraft holes that had been dug before.

When building a defensive position, He Zhengdao deliberately told the Second Division that it would be best to build an anti-aircraft hole to withstand the bombing of the aircraft. This also means that it is impossible to blow up the anti-aircraft hole with just the Japanese 75-caliber mountain cannon.

After the artillery began, the Japanese army also began to advance slowly in a scattered line. In this case, the artillery calculator who observed the Japanese artillery quickly sent the parameters of the Japanese mountain artillery position back to the position of the artillery brigade.

Travel Zhu Dean looked at this parameter and smiled and said, "Okay, our artillery brigade can finally have an artillery battle with the Japanese. I can shoot me a little bit, and we don't have much reserve of shells."

‘Yes, brigade commander, just look at it!’

The artillery soldiers who began to adjust the angle of the artillery, and as they shouted "Prepare" one after another, Zhu Ding immediately said: "Okay, start fighting back!"

With a command, the ten mountain cannons of the artillery brigade quickly roared. Hearing the howling sound of artillery bombardment from behind the Red Army's positions, Natsumoto kissed Ichiro in surprise: "Hey! Do this unit have large-caliber artillery?"

Just as Nagashiki's surprised eyes were in surprise, the first round of artillery shells fired by the artillery brigade accurately hit the Japanese mountain artillery position. The sound of artillery that had originally resounded and blocked the position suddenly stopped.

Not long after, Nagamo Kiss Ichiro received news from the artillery brigade that, during the counterattack of the Red Army, most of their mountain artillery positions were destroyed. Many artillery were afraid that they would have to be pulled back for repair before they could be used.

‘Bagya Road! It seems that our opponents are stronger than we imagined! Order the field artillery brigade to calculate their artillery positions for me, and must destroy the artillery positions of the Chinese army in the shortest time.

In addition, the infantry brigade was ordered to start the attack. Without the support of artillery, our warriors could still capture the positions of the Chinese army. Tonight, we must go to the city to enjoy our victory dinner!’

When the mountain artillery brigade lost its function and the field artillery brigade began to counterattack, more than a thousand Japanese troops also began to attack in the infantry brigade responsible for the attack. Under the cover of mortars, the Japanese army also launched an attack.

In the danger of falling mortars, the Red Army on the position also began to drill into the anti-aircraft artillery holes and enter their respective combat posts. A regiment of mortar companies also began to suppress the mortars of the Japanese infantry brigade.

Looking at the Japanese army, whose attack speed was not slow but extremely calm, a rifle battalion sent by the reconnaissance brigade launched a firing two hundred meters away. At the same time, the heavy machine guns on the position also began to roar.

‘Grenadier, knock off the opponent’s heavy machine gun position!’

The Japanese grassroots commanders who were suppressed on the front line quickly ordered their grenade launchers to set up grenade launchers to launch a counterattack against the Red Army on the position. But these grenades undoubtedly became living targets for the riflemen of the reconnaissance brigade.

The sound of the rifle was messy but rhythmic, causing many Japanese troops carrying grenade launchers to be knocked down by the Red Army on the position just after they were set up. This situation made the Japanese troops attacking them a little crazy.

Similarly, most of the Japanese troops who successfully set up grenade launchers were able to accurately throw grenades into the Red Army's machine gun positions. In this case, the Red Army on the positions also began to suffer casualties.

Fortunately, the riflemen in the reconnaissance brigade were very powerful, and the shooting at a distance of 200 meters was more accurate than the Japanese army. In this case, even if the Japanese grenade launcher was successful, they would often only be able to fire one grenade and be shot dead.

Looking at the infantry brigade that was blocked from the attack, suppressing the frontier position for about two hundred meters before moving forward, Nagatsuki said with a displeasure: "Let the Imperial Army send an infantry regiment to cooperate with our attack!"

In Natsumoto's opinion, compared with the Red Army's defense on the position, an infantry brigade attacked too few people. Therefore, dispatching a puppet army to cooperate in combat can also share the offensive pressure of the infantry brigade.

When the puppet army began to join the battle, the remaining defenders on the position also began to join the ranks of blocking. In this case, the Japanese field artillery squadron also began to launch a counterattack against the artillery brigade.

Looking at the shells flying over the head of his position, Zhu Ding also smiled and said, "The Japanese are very kind, use shells to cultivate the land for us for free! Hurry up and calculate their parameters and see if we can do it!"
