    This time, their attack was no longer just from the front. There were also troops attacking from the rear of the Japanese army.  The attacking troops were the troops led by Xia Yang and other Soviet troops that rushed inside from the breach.

    In the second half of the night, there was no too fierce fighting.  On the contrary, both sides remained completely quiet.

    The Soviet troops are busy launching a general offensive.  However, the Japanese had no way to launch any counterattack. They could only stay on the position, seize the time to rest, and wait for the Soviets' final fierce attack.

    Xia Yang gave a big yawn, then jumped out of the armored vehicle, picked up the telescope, and looked at the gentle undulating slope in the distance.

    Behind those gentle slopes, there are many Japanese positions.  If it were any other time, last night, the Japanese army might have mobilized troops and started to encircle and suppress them.

    But things are different now. Those little Japanese troops are seriously short of ammunition and are unable to launch any counterattack against them.  The only thing they could do was to hold their position and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

    "The troops are almost ready. Master, when will we launch an attack?" The speaker was Hu San. He led the guard battalion and followed Xia Yang's troops into the Japanese defense circle last night.

    Xia Yang looked at his watch. The hands on it stopped at half past nine in the morning.

    "When the Soviets started their general offensive, our troops stationed everywhere began to participate in the attack half an hour later," Xia Yang said.

    The reason why they chose to launch the attack half an hour later was to wait until the Japanese army mobilized all its main forces to the frontal battlefield to defend against the Soviets.  They took advantage of the situation and achieved maximum results with minimum casualties.

    "Yes, Master." Hu San said.

    The troops led by Xia Yang basically entered their predetermined combat positions last night.  Now they only need to wait for an order to attack and launch a fierce attack on the Japanese positions.

    Time passed by little by little, and when the hour hand pointed to ten o'clock, Marshal Zhukov finally issued the order for a general attack.

    As his order was issued, the Soviet artillery troops, which had been prepared for a long time, began to install shells on the heavy artillery.

    ¡°Boom boom boom!!!¡±

    With a muffled sound, countless artillery shells fell from the sky and landed on the Japanese position.

    At the same time, the Soviet fighter planes and bombers at the field airport had also flown over the Japanese positions and began to violently bomb the positions where the Japanese troops were stationed.

    Aerial bombs, with sharp whistling sounds, were bombarding the Japanese positions like black meteorites falling from the sky.  The cannons, heavy machine guns, etc. installed on the wings of the fighter jets also began to fire violently at the Japanese positions.

    Although the Japanese soldiers hiding in the trenches had long been mentally prepared for all this, they still showed expressions of fear in the trenches in the face of such a violent bombing.

    Although they are crazy, facing such a desperate situation and extremely violent bombing, they still have the instinctive fear of human beings.

    "Compared with the fear of the Japanese army, the Soviet soldiers were gearing up and full of fighting spirit. They were just waiting for the bombing to end before they would launch a violent attack on the Japanese main positions.

    Such violent bombing lasted for more than half an hour.

    Finally, the sound of cannons gradually became sparse.

    Before the bombardment was completely over, the Soviet flags flying had already begun to charge towards the Japanese positions.  Behind them were tanks and armored vehicles with no end in sight, as well as infantry units following.

    The attack was launched from more than ten directions at the same time, and the number of people directly involved in the attack reached 50,000 or 60,000. Even Xia Yang had never seen such a large-scale attack.

    Listening to the sound of guns and artillery coming from all around, Xia Yang knew that the official battle had begun. He could even imagine that the Japanese army and the Soviets were fighting in front of the position.

    Many Japanese soldiers who lacked ammunition had bombs tied to their bodies and acted as human bombs to block the Soviet attack.  There were also many people who directly engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Soviets, but most fell on the road, and many others were crushed into pulp by tanks and armored vehicles.

    The Japanese cavalry troops were also mobilized at this time and began to cut the Soviet offensive formation from the flanks.  That's the only counterattack they can do.Measured.

    These cavalry units finally rushed into the Soviet formation after suffering extremely heavy casualties.

    "What the Soviets didn't expect was that these Japanese cavalry did not intend to use sabers to cause any damage to them.  Those horses were tied with explosives, and when they rushed into the Soviet camp, they would detonate the bombs directly.

    On the vast battlefield, it can be clearly seen that suicide bomb attacks were detonated in the Soviet camp.  Many of them were blown up directly before they even got close to the Soviets, and their bodies were blown to pieces by bombs.

    Liu Fudong listened to the sound of gunfire all around and knew that the battle was getting intense.  He paced around eagerly, and finally couldn't help but ask Xia Yang: "Master, when are we going to start attacking? I really can't wait, Lao Liu. If it's a little later, the Soviets might kill the little devil."  Killed them all. So why don¡¯t we just go over and collect the corpses?¡±

    Seeing Liu Fudong's appearance, Xia Yang felt a little funny in his heart, so he looked at his watch and said: "There are still five minutes left, don't be anxious. Wait a little longer and let the Soviets consume the Japanese for a while. We can attack from the rear. We can definitely do it."  It has the effect of getting twice the result with half the effort. Not to mention taking down the little Japanese¡¯s position in one go, we can take down most of it.¡±

    Liu Fudong said: "Okay, I will pass on the order right now." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
