    It¡¯s just that the Japanese regiment lacked armored vehicles, so they could only bombard them with artillery and then charge with infantry.  It did not pose much of a threat to them, and the first wave of attacks was hastily ended after leaving dozens of corpses behind.

    In other places, small-scale battles are also taking place continuously.  Fierce battles will break out when the Japanese army attacks various strongholds, seizes some transportation arteries, and even attacks some towns.

    While Xia Yang is directing the battle in this direction, he also needs to coordinate the overall situation and analyze the intelligence transmitted from the guard camp at all times.  Thus, the Japanese army's offensive intentions were obtained, and then mobile troops were dispatched to block these Japanese troops.

    On the other side, a regiment led by Chen Shiliang has completed the infiltration of the Japanese army and began to harass their rear transportation lines and strongholds.

    These troops that penetrated into the rear of the Japanese army were basically broken into pieces, with a maximum number of no more than a hundred.  Its main function is to turn the Japanese army's rear upside down, thereby distracting the Japanese army's attention from the frontal battlefield.

    Yoshio Shinozuka also had to divide his troops again to deal with the enemy's harassment of them from the rear.

    After lunch, at two o'clock in the afternoon, the Japanese army's third attack began.

    This time they chose to dispatch two squadrons of troops, bypassing the direction, hoping to approach the city wall of Lingqiu County from the flank, and then complete the outflank of Xia Yang's defense line in this direction.

    Their intentions were immediately detected by the guard camp and reported directly to Xia Yang.

    Xia Yang took a brief look at the map, and then dispatched two companies of troops to occupy the two highlands on both wings.  Those two highlands are actually not very high. They can't even be called highlands. They are just two small slopes.

    "But two heavy machine guns placed on these two slopes can block a road with a radius of one kilometer.  The Japanese squadron could either continue to circle around, or they could only choose to attack by force.

    On the front, the number of Japanese armored vehicles and tanks has been reduced a lot.  And the branches are more sparse to avoid being concentrated by the rocket nest again.

    Before the official attack began, there was another joint bombardment by Japanese heavy artillery and mountain artillery.  This time their bombardment lasted longer, lasting nearly an hour before it was declared over.

    The position of the 228th Regiment has been reduced to shape by heavy artillery bombardment. The soldiers crawled out of the Maoer Hole, each one covered with a layer of soil.  Those were all the blown up soil, scattered on their bodies.

    After getting up from the trenches, these soldiers began to repair their positions, and at the same time used some of the craters created by the explosion as part of the position's defense line.

    The Japanese troops had already cleared away all the broken trees in the forest at noon.  Their armored vehicles passed through the woods again, followed by thousands of charging Japanese soldiers.

    The rocket nest was launched again, but none of the Japanese troops chose to retreat. Under the fierce bombardment of rockets, these people screamed and charged forward.

    Behind them, the Japanese heavy machine gun and mortar positions fired bullets and artillery shells on the 228th Regiment's defense line without hesitation.  The dense bullets were like a heavy rain, and many soldiers were shot by bullets just as they poked their heads out.

    This time the Japanese attack was even more fierce. Many Japanese soldiers were even naked from the waist up, with white cloth strips wrapped around their heads, and they charged towards us while shouting.

    Xia Yang used his binoculars to look at the Japanese troops rushing out of the rocket smoke, and smiled coldly and said: "The Gatling heavy machine guns began to concentrate their firepower, and at the same time, the flamethrowers were prepared. Don't give the Japanese troops a chance to get closer to the position.  This time they don¡¯t have so many armored vehicles and tanks, so I want to see if their bushido spirit can allow their bodies to block heavy machine gun bullets.¡±

    There were only seven or eight armored vehicles in the Japanese charge this time, and nearly half of them were set on fire by rockets during the charge.  Only four or five dilapidated vehicles remained, protecting dozens of Japanese soldiers from heavy machine gun fire.

    With armored vehicles and tanks helping to block bullets, Japanese soldiers were able to advance under dense rains of bullets.  Without the protection of tanks and armored vehicles, although the remaining Japanese soldiers were brave, they were often shot through the body by bullets hitting them as soon as they came out of the smoke.

    The Gatling heavy machine gun, as well as other machine guns and rifles on the position, fired fiercely at the Japanese troops who rushed out of the rocket nest smoke.

    The firepower of both sides was exchanging fire, and they could only rely on some craters to fight.The losses of the hidden Japanese troops were very heavy.  Before, they had more than a dozen tanks and armored vehicles to cover their rush to the enemy's position.  But this time it was gone. His flesh and blood body was as fragile as a piece of paper amid the hail of bullets.

    "Chichichi!!!" The barrel of the Gatling gun rotated rapidly, and countless bullets were ejected from the barrel. The firepower network formed could suppress the Japanese army on the ground in the blink of an eye.

    "Onboard!!!" A Japanese squad leader stood up, shouted "Long Live the Emperor," and took the lead in the Long Live Charge.

    Inspired by him, the other Japanese soldiers who were suppressed on the ground also roared and got up from the ground as if they had been given blood, and began to charge fiercely.

    ¡°Onboard!!¡±

    The Japanese army¡¯s Long Live Charge began. Thousands of Japanese soldiers, withstanding the firepower of heavy machine guns, launched a direct charge towards the 228th Regiment¡¯s position.  Its momentum is very astonishing.

    Some recruits were so frightened that they thought they were ghosts from hell.  But those veterans were very calm. They had encountered similar situations many times, so they were naturally not afraid.

    "Flame thrower!!! Start spraying!!" Niu Shushi shouted from inside the trench.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
