Chapter 157
On the Wuming Mountain, Kong Jie, the commander of the New Second Regiment, was resisting desperately with more than 100 remaining subordinates.
Nearly a thousand Japanese and puppet troops were surrounding them, crazily besieging them
The Japanese and puppet troops were lying on the road of charge, which showed the cruelty of the battle.
"Comrades, our New Second Regiment was definitely not scared. Today, the Japanese are eating us here, and there is no door! Keep the position for me and wait for reinforcements!" Kong Jie held a Czech style and opened fire while swearing to encourage his subordinates.
A company commander asked anxiously: "Captain, can there really be reinforcements?"
"I'll have it if I say there! At worst, I'll fight the Japanese devils here to the death! However, even if we're dying, we have to pull some more Japanese devils on their backs!" Kong Jie gritted his teeth and fired, and four or five devils who were charging with guns nearly a hundred meters away were shooting and falling.
"Captain, I'm afraid there will be no reinforcements. Otherwise, I will take my brothers to cover you and break through!" The company commander said to Kong Jie in despair.
Kong Jie didn't buy it at all, and continued shooting in the Czech style and said, "Stop talking nonsense, fight me well. If you want to die, we have to die together.
How could I, the commander of the regiment, leave my troops and run away alone?”
"But the enemy's troops are ten times that of ours. If we continue to fight, we will not last long." The company commander was anxious.
Kong Jie scolded him very harshly: "Shut up, what I say is an order, execute the order! Continue to fight!"
Seeing that Kong Jie could not be persuaded, the company commander had to sigh and pick up a Hanyang-made rifle to continue shooting outside the position.
However, after killing two Japanese devils, he was unfortunately hit by a stray bullet and fell beside Kong Jie and died on the spot.
"Second Company Commander!" Kong Jie was so sad that he saw that the Japanese were about to rush up.
Kong Jie found that the Czech bullets in his hand were also exhausted. In desperation, he drew a covered machete from the mound of soil next to him and ordered at the top of his throat: "Brothers, get the bayonet!"
While Kong Jie was planning to lead the remnants to fight to the death with the Japanese.
In the southwest direction of the mountain, Xu Wen, Sun Desheng, Wei Dayong, Wang Yongsheng and others drove the Sherman tank and led nearly 200 people to arrive in time.
More than a dozen Japanese police sentinels wanted to stop them, but Wei Dayong controlled the tank anti-fire machine gun and killed them with one strafing.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Wen and his team drove the tanks and led the soldiers of the New Second Regiment to rush towards the besieged hillside of Kong Jie and the others.
At that time, most of the Japanese and puppet troops surrounding the mountain were attacking.
There were not many troops left behind, so Xu Wen and his team easily broke through the interception of the Japanese and puppet troops for a hundred years with the powerful assault firepower of the tank.
Kong Jie and others heard the sound of gunfire here and immediately followed the sound. When they watched a tank guiding hundreds of their own infantry, they suddenly broke through the siege.
Kong Jie was stunned and said with a confused look on his face: "It's strange, which unit is coming to reinforce? There are also tanks."
A platoon leader said ecstaticly: "Captain, they should be here to reinforce us, right?"
Kong Jie looked at the Japanese and puppet troops, falling in pieces under the powerful and dense firepower of the tanks, and said, "It seems yes."
However, he soon came to his senses, immediately raised the sword in his hand, suddenly waved his strength towards Xu Wen and the others, and ordered loudly: "Comrades, reinforcements have arrived, come with me!"
Before he finished speaking, he was the first to jump out of the fortification with a big knife. Nearly a hundred remaining soldiers of the New Second Regiment carried weapons and followed them out of the trenches and launched a counterattack against the Japanese and puppet troops.
Under the enemy from both sides, the Japanese and puppet troops were in chaos. Xu Wen took this opportunity to drive the tank and rushed towards Kong Jie and the others.
"Captain Kong, we are from the independent regiment! Break through quickly!" Before long, Xu Wen saw Kong Jie and others in the chaos army fighting bayonets and fighting bloody battles, and immediately shouted at him at the top of their throats.
"So it's Li Yunlong's army! It's great! I have to owe that old boy a favor again this time!" Kong Jie's expression was so loud that he slashed a Japanese sergeant to the ground with one knife.
He turned around and ordered his subordinates behind him, "Brothers, rush out with me!"
"Kill!"
"Run!" Nearly a hundred officers and soldiers of the New Second Regiment, who were also very motivated, shouted in unison and rushed towards the tanks with Kong Jie.
Wei Dayong, Wang Yongsheng, Sun Desheng and others controlled the car-mounted machine guns on the tanks and fired wildly at the Japanese and puppet troops around them, killing them with flesh and blood and falling down one after another.
He supported Kong Jie and the others with great force, helped them successfully defeat the siege, and rushed over to meet with the tank.
At this time, Wang Yongsheng's third battalion infantry rushed over with the tanks. After the two troops joined forces, they did not bother to exchange greetings.
Xu Wen immediately said to Kong Jie: "Captain Kong, you can take the people to retreat first, our tank behind us."
"Okay!" Kong Jie had already recognized Xu Wen, Sun Desheng and others at this time, and knew that the battle was urgent. Now was not the time to speak, so he did not talk nonsense. He directly brought his nearly 100 subordinates and nearly 200 infantry soldiers of the Third Battalion to join forces.
He led them to rush towards the direction he came. The Japanese and puppet troops in this direction had long been killed and injured by Xu Wen and his friends with their powerful assault firepower. The remaining ones fled and scattered.
Therefore, Kong Jie and his team's rush went very smoothly and they were almost not blocked.
On Xu Wen and his team, although there were many Japanese and puppet troops swarming from other directions, wanting to pursue them.
However, it was bombarded by the tank guns of Sherman tanks and the powerful firepower of the vehicle-mounted machine guns.
Especially the dense fire net composed of three heavy-duty machine guns and one anti-aircraft machine gun, the Japanese and puppet troops almost rushed over and fell down.
The 75-mm tank gun was also poured out the shells, and the Japanese and puppet troops flew everywhere, running wildly and in a mess.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Wen quickly turned around in the tank, then blasted the accelerator to the end, and drove the tank to chase Kong Jie and the others in the direction of breaking through.
In this way, Xu Wen drove a tank with his powerful on-board firepower, so he did not dare to pursue the Japanese and puppet troops, and successfully protected Kong Jie and others from breaking through the encirclement.
When he arrived at a safe place, Kong Jie came to Xu Wen's tank with gratitude and took the initiative to salute Xu Wen, "Zhuzi, thanks to you, Company Commander Sun, and Monk Wei this time.
Otherwise, I, Kong Jie, would have to explain to that unknown mountain."
Xu Wen smiled and said, "Captain Kong is polite. You are the leader and our big brother. How can you not save me?"
"Hahaha!" Kong Jie was overjoyed and patted Xu Wen's shoulder with praise and asked, "By the way, have you Captain Li and Political Commissar Zhao prominenced?"
"It should have been successfully broken through." Xu Wen replied.
"That's good. It's not advisable to stay here for a long time. The enemy may catch up at any time. We have to retreat quickly!" Kong Jie said.
Xu Wen nodded and agreed, and immediately invited Kong Jie to board the tank, drive the tank, and continue to retreat with his troops.
