Yang Jing led his troops to the north bank of the Linhuai River and the area around Linhuai Pass to contact the 31st Army. After learning that Yaowan had been captured by the 68th Japanese infantry Regiment, he gave up his plan to go to the 31st Army Headquarters.

Lead the army straight to Yaowan!

"Da da da da!"

"Tututu!——"

"Bang!"

"Bang bang bang bang bang!"

"boom!"

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom!"——"

Yaowan, soldiers of the 135th Division are fighting a cruel bloody battle with the 68th Japanese Infantry Regiment.

The dense sound of gunfire came one after another, resounding through the sky.

Yang Jing stood on a commanding height behind, holding a telescope in his hand to reconnaise the battle situation near Yaowan.

Bi Yuntao, who was standing beside him, also held a telescope in his hand. After a moment, he frowned and said with some concern: "The situation of the 135th Division is not very good."

"Yeah." Yang Jing nodded and asked, "Do you know which Japanese army they are facing?"

Bi Yuntao subconsciously asked: "Which Japanese army is it?"

Yang Jing said: "Under the 3rd Japanese Division, the 5th Infantry Brigade, and the 68th Regiment."

Bi Yuntao suddenly remembered: "It was the 68th Infantry Regiment that we had taken off the wing headquarters outside Baoshan City, and then the wing flag was used by you to wipe your butt?"

Yang Jing said: "You boy has a good memory?

Yes, it’s this infantry 68th Regiment!”

After pausing, Yang Jing said again: "Do you dare to take the corps headquarters of the 68th Japanese Infantry Regiment?"

Bi Yuntao said excitedly: "Why don't you dare?"

"Yeah, very good!"

Yang Jing nodded and then analyzed: "At present, the 68th Japanese Infantry Regiment did not know that our reinforcements had arrived, and it was the best time to launch a counterattack!

If our regiment launches an attack from the Japanese side at this time, the Japanese will definitely be in chaos!”

Opportunities must not be missed, and no more mistakes will come!

Yang Jing withdrew his thoughts and made a quick decision to order: "Architecture, quickly build artillery positions for me and fire freely on the Japanese positions!"

"The 2nd Battalion launched an attack from the left wing."

"The 3rd Battalion launched an attack from the right wing."

"The 1st Battalion reinforces the 135th Division from the front!"

"The Sharp Spear Company provides fire cover and cooperates with the coordinated operations of all battalions!"

"Be sure to do your best to kill all the Japanese Japanese infantry 68th Regiment, throw all their bodies into the Huaihe River to feed the fish!"

"yes!"

Everyone took the order with a loud bang, and then quickly ran under the mountain bag.

Seeing that he had not received the combat order, the 4th battalion commander Chen Lin couldn't help but wonder: "Royal, where is our 4th battalion?"

Yang Jing said: "The 4th Battalion and the rest of the troops serve as reserves! After the attacking troops break through the Japanese defense line, they will immediately block and siege me from the periphery, so that no one of them can escape!"

"yes!"

…………

After 20 minutes.

The troops were ready, and the artillery battalion also deployed artillery positions in a wide-view area 2 kilometers away from the main battlefield between the enemy and us.

A total of 40 75mm caliber field cannons lined up in a row.

To deal with a mere gang of Japanese devils, these firepower is enough.

"Add 1st company, 20 goals and 10 shots freely!"

"Prepare for 2 consecutive games, 20 goals and 10 shots freely!"

With the command of the artillery battalion commander raked his ears, the artillery soldiers of the 1st and 2nd Company quickly adjusted the shooting angle and aimed at the Japanese defense zone in front.

At the same time, more than 4,000 elite infantrymen from the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Battalions also divided into three groups and rushed towards the 68th Japanese infantry Regiment under the leadership of their respective battalions commanders.

That's right, since the addition of troops in Xuzhou, the total strength of the Tiger Ben regiment has exceeded 10,000.

The forces of each main battalion also reached a scale of 1,500.

Although Bi Yuntao and Fan Tietou were nominally a battalion commander, they actually lived the life of a regiment commander.

"Prepare, let it go!"

At the artillery position, with the order of Rake's ear, two 40 75mm-caliber field cannons fired together.

"Bang!"

"Bangbangbangbangbang!"——"

A row of field cannon fire sounded, and shells flew out of the barrel one after another, dragging the scorching tail flames to break through the void and smashing hard at the Japanese in Yaowan.

The Tiger Ben Regiment came very suddenly, and the Japanese in the 68th Infantry Regiment did not receive any information at all and were immediately caught off guard.

"boom!"

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom!"——"

The densely flying shells exploded continuously, and balls of violent flames burst out from the Japanese defense line.

Hundreds of Japanese soldiers were bombed into the sky before they could react.

A momentary death and injury pillow was heard, and wailing everywhere!

"Arson, artillery attack!"

"Hidden, hidden! Hurry up! Hurry up!!!"

"Baga! Where did the shells come from?"

The Japanese soldiers retreated under the fortifications to avoid shells and cursed angrily.

A Japanese Major officer commanding on the front line got up from the bunker in a panic, then hurriedly ran towards the corps command along the traffic trench.

"Report to the corps commander, our defense line was violently bombarded by the Chinese army, and the Imperial Army suffered heavy casualties..."

"Baga!"

Colonel Hikawa Okasaka, the new commander of the 68th Infantry Regiment, roared angrily, then picked up the telescope and walked out of the command center fortifications, looking in the direction where the shells were fired.

"Bagaya Road! The shells were shot from the rear of the 135th Division of the Chinese Army. Hasn't the artillery of the 135th Division been annihilated by the Imperial Army artillery and the aviation army?

Where did these Chinese artillery come out?"

The adjutant on the side lowered his head and said, "Governor Captain, will this be the reinforcements of the Chinese army arrive?

Otherwise, how could the strength of the 135th Division of the Chinese Army dare to take the initiative to launch a counterattack against our army?"

"Baga! Damn it! What do the intelligence departments do for food? Why don't we get any information?"

Hikawa Okasaka cursed, then shouted in a deep voice: "Order the Imperial Warriors to hold their positions and the artillery quickly launch a counterattack!"

"yes!"

A messenger bowed his head and bowed heavily, then hurriedly ran away.

Hikawa Okasaka turned his head and looked at his adjutant and ordered: "Order the correspondents and send a report to the brigade commander immediately.

Our troops were in the Yaowan area on the north bank of the Huai River and were violently bombarded by the Chinese army. The troops suffered heavy casualties. Please ask for tactical guidance!”

"Hayi!"

The devil's adjutant bowed his head heavily and immediately turned around and ran back to the wing headquarters.

...

Not long after, after 10 free shots were completed, the Huben regiment's cannon immediately adjusted the muzzle and extended the firepower to the hinterland of the Japanese position.

"Brothers from the 2nd Battalion, let me rush!"

"Brothers from the 3rd Battalion, rush! Kill!"

As the artillery battalion extended its firepower, thousands of soldiers from the 2nd and 3rd battalions quickly attacked from the left and right wings, forming a siege with the 1st Battalion and the 135th Division on the front, the 68th Japanese infantry regiment that had just occupied Yaowan.

In fact, without Su Fufu's order, the main force of the 135th Division, which was reinforced by the 1st Battalion of the Huben Regiment, had already launched a counterattack against the Japanese army from the front!

…………

"Tututu!——"

"Da da da da!"——"

The 2nd and 3rd battalions of the Hu Ben Regiment were unstoppable and soon broke through the Japanese flank defense line and occupied half of the positions.
