*********************************************************************

Riding on the horse, Kono whipped his horse boots with a whip, and slowly said: "It is unrealistic to always want to fight the enemy's main force and defeat the opponent in one fell swoop. I have experienced it deeply! Especially after entering the mountains and forests, the Imperial Army's mobility and firepower advantages often become a living target for bandits with accurate marksmanship. My biggest experience is to use the Chinese bandits to fight the Chinese bandits. They are familiar with the terrain and their habits, and they often have great results."

"Your Excellency Kono really has a solution." Shimada grinned bitterly, pointed at the puppet army who was the first to open the way, and said contempt: "However, these guys seem not strong enough, and they may disappoint you."

"Hahaha, Shimada-kun is actually humorous." Kono laughed and said, "Of course, it's not possible to rely on them alone, but behind them is an invincible imperial army, probably that's enough?"

"Boom, boom, boom..." A series of landmines exploded one after another on the road, and a series of thunder formations were like a giant python that suddenly jumped out of the ground, blowing the enemy to death and injuries on the road nearly two miles away.

The march was forced to stop, and Kono frowned and sent out engineers.

"Bang, bang, bang!" Several gunshots came from afar, and then the gunshots became dense. Kono strangled his horse and raised his telescope.

A group of enemies shouted and rushed towards the place where the attackers were hiding. After a while, the Japanese soldiers and puppet troops rushed into the woods, and after a burst of gunfire, they began to search carefully.

"Ah!" A puppet army seemed to trip under the feet. With a loud bang, a thunder hidden in the weeds and trees suddenly exploded, sweeping across the gravel chips, and a large cloud of smoke rose. Several enemies fell to the ground and screamed in pain.

The cold gun was still ringing, and several snipers in camouflage uniforms were hiding in the woods, using the dug trenches and fortifications to move and kill the enemy. The enemies who rushed into the woods were constantly killed and injured by the thunder and thunder.

But when the gunshots are heard, no one is seen? Kono held up a telescope and looked at him. He seemed to remember the battle he encountered in Kanto again, which is somewhat similar to it!

The bombardment surrounded the woods, and Kono made adjustments. Seeing that he could not defend himself, the sniper in the woods retreated along the waist of the trench.

After a small-scale battle, more than a dozen enemies died and injured, but nothing gained and a lot of time wasted.

Kono led his team to continue to set off. Facing the damaged road, landmines exploded from time to time and snipers with cold guns, the enemy had to advance forward with great vigilance, and the marching speed became very slow.

The enemy in Dangshan was harassed by groups of three or five small troops, mainly because it was not expected that the Third Column not only carried out a lot of road breaking work in advance, but also used a lot of landmines. Their engineers were obviously insufficient and mines were not complete. In addition, the harassing troops used snipers and took good care of the engineers walking in front, which made Kono and Shimada helpless.

You should know that landmines were used on a large scale by the anti-Japanese armed forces after 1940. Although there were examples of landmines used in combat against Japan, they were not common and there were not so many tricks.

This result surprised Guo Songlin and others who were in charge of harassment, and at the same time they also gained a deeper understanding of the benefits of landmines. Landmines are dead, but they have a great deterrent effect on the enemy. And it doesn’t depend on how much you buried. Even if only one landmine explodes, the enemy will become cautious and terrified.

The enemies here are moving slowly, but the enemies in Xiayi did not enjoy the entertainment of landmines and snipers. They drove in and rushed straight to the foot of Tiejiao Mountain, and only then did they encounter a tenacious blockade.

"Boom, boom, boom..." The cannons kept roaring, and shells exploded on the mountain, and wood chips and soil kept rising with gunpowder.

Japanese commander Koji Takeshita held up a telescope and did not let it go for a long time.

Although he knew that the closer he got to Nagashima, the enemy would definitely fight to the death, Koji Takeshita did not expect the offense to be so unsuccessful.

To enter Yongcheng, you must pass through the hillside of Tiejiao Mountain. As a barrier to the county town, the Third Column excavated and built very strong fortifications here.

There are blockade ditches that are ten feet deep and ten feet wide on the hillside. The strength of the fortifications on the mountain is not comparable to that of hasty construction. The trenches are zigzags, and there are individual anti-aircraft artillery holes, which can effectively prevent artillery attacks. The bunkers and bunkers are connected by similar trenches. In this way, people can be quickly dispatched to support each other without being exposed to the ground. With two infantry cannons and several mortars, it is not easy for the Japanese army to attack such a strong defense line.

But the Japanese army is not a puppet army. They are stubborn, cruel and tenacious. They usually exert a sensation in battle, stubbornly advancing towards the intended target, ignoring some small losses.

After the artillery bombardment, the first batch of attacks began. Fifty or sixty puppet troops rushed upwards under the supervision of several Japanese troops.

Five hundred meters, the soldiers opposite were silent; two hundred meters, still silent. The more they were connected into the blockade ditch, the more sinister and ominous this silence seemed.

"Dadadada..." The machine gun suddenly ejected a tongue of flame from the bunker, followed by a rifle and grenade launcher roaring, and the fire net enveloped the enemy, throwing enemies within a hundred meters into pools of blood and death.

In just a quarter of an hour, the first round of attack failed. Only a dozen people retreated, and the rest were all corpsed on the hillside.

Koji Takeshita was angry. He did not tolerate his subordinates' defeat, but he could not tolerate the consequences of failure. Japanese yelling and scolding came from the mountain, and the soldiers of the Third Column expressed their urgency to have non-friendly and intimate relationships with the female relatives of the Japanese emperor in broken Japanese.

So after the second round of artillery bombardment, a larger-scale attack began again. Under the supervision of the Japanese devils, the puppet army, squadrons and squadrons took turns to attack. Chiefs at all levels supervised the battle layer by layer, and the soldiers were forced by the guns of the Japanese devils' supervision team, like groups of prisoners with ashes, rushing towards the blockade ditch and fire net on the top of the mountain.

After several attacks, Takeshita Koji was slightly relieved to see that the blockade ditch was being filled with wood, earth bags and other debris. It would be a blood bridge built at the cost of more than a hundred casualties.

The artillery that had moved forward stopped shooting, and Takeshita Koji adjusted his deployment and prepared for the next fierce attack. But he did not expect that the opponent was waiting for his massive attack, and a sinister trap was waiting for him to jump in.
