Devil's Army

Chapter 1793 Recovering Dangshan County 2

The Japanese machine gunners in the bunker discovered the devil's rocket soldiers approaching them.

The rocket soldiers who had already prepared to attack the Japanese bunker quickly adjusted their direction when the smoke cleared and then opened fire immediately.

After firing, the rocket soldiers immediately lay on the ground.

At this time, a series of machine gun bullets flew over their heads.

Then two explosions were heard, "boom, boom," and the Japanese bunker was overturned by rockets.

The soldiers of the first battalion of the first regiment jumped up and rushed towards the Japanese troops in the trenches behind the bunker.

After a fierce hand-to-hand combat, the soldiers of the first battalion wiped out the remaining Japanese and puppet troops in the trenches.

The first regiment quickly followed suit. The first battalion continued its attack and quickly captured the sorghum fields south of Dahuangzhuang in Zengxi Erpu and Sanjiankeng in the northwest.

The Japanese army blocked the devil troops from entering Dangshan County south of Luweizi Village.

The terrain south of Luweizi Village is far less dangerous than the corner position of Xierpu.

After two salvos from a regiment of mortar soldiers, the Japanese positions were basically destroyed.

Under the cover of fierce firepower from machine guns and Golden Eagle drones, the soldiers of the first battalion quickly broke through the Japanese positions south of Luweizizhuang.

The Japanese army then retreated to the mass graves north of the Suyong Highway in Luxuzizhuang and built a new defense line.

How could the soldiers of the first battalion give the Japanese army time to build a defense line?

Rockets and mortars bombarded the area, and the Japanese firing points behind the mass graves were eliminated one after another. The Japanese troops were forced to continue their retreat.

The Japanese army took turns to cover each other, retreated step by step, and withdrew to Dangshan County.

The Japanese commander originally wanted to use the outer fortifications of Dangshan County to resist the devil troops for two days, so that reinforcements from Xiaoxian and Suxian could come to support.

Unexpectedly, the defense line they thought was very solid collapsed in less than a day of resisting the devil's army.

The 3rd and 4th Regiments of the Independent Brigade attacked Dangshan County along the Su-Si Highway.

Si County is located in the east of Su County, and the Su-Si Highway is an important transportation line for the Japanese army.

The Japanese army also built bunkers and trenches along the commanding heights along the Su-Si Highway in an attempt to curb the devil troops' attack on Dangshan County.

The vanguard of the 3rd Regiment encountered stubborn resistance from the Japanese army at Shiweiwei, northeast of the hilltop on the Sisu Highway.

Shiwei Village is located 10 kilometers north of Guirenji and a little over 100 meters west of the Susi Highway. The village is surrounded by a wall and a moat. The terrain in front of the village is open.

When the first battalion of the third regiment's vanguard arrived here, the Japanese troops in the dike and trenches suddenly opened fire.

The soldiers of the first battalion were caught off guard. The soldier in front was shot and killed, and the soldiers behind him quickly lay down.

The mortar troops of the Third Regiment responded quickly and immediately launched a fierce bombardment on the Japanese troops on the dike and in the trenches.

The Japanese firing points on the dikes and trenches were blown away one after another.

The two sides fought fiercely for nearly half an hour. The Japanese army was defeated and continued to retreat.

The Third Regiment chased the Japanese army to Caiqiao in the southeast of Suxian, where they encountered stubborn resistance from the Japanese army.

Caiqiao is also located in a transportation hub. 40 li to its southwest is Guzhen Station, 30 li to its west is Xisipao Station, more than 50 li to its northwest is Suxian, and more than 20 li to its north is Dadian.

At this time, Japanese troops from Suxian and Dadian rushed over to support.

After receiving the intelligence, Brigadier General Zhang arranged for the Fourth Regiment to intercept the Japanese troops in Suxian County in the northwest of Caiqiao. He also asked the commander of the Fourth Regiment to arrange troops to encircle the rear of the Japanese troops in Suxian County and prevent them from retreating to Suxian County.

The Japanese troops that rushed over from Dadian were also ambushed by two battalions of the Third Regiment. They suffered heavy losses and had to retreat to Dadian.
