    But these napalms are so disgusting that they cannot be extinguished by beating or rolling them.  Doing so will only cause the flames to spread faster on their bodies.

    Takeuchi Renage and the soldiers hiding in the bunker were not harmed by napalm bombs.  But they could clearly see the soldiers struggling in the trench.

    Many Japanese soldiers chose to rush into the bunker at this time.

    But those bunkers were not big to begin with and could not fit so many people inside.  For a time, the Japanese bunkers along the entire front were overcrowded.

    As for those Japanese soldiers who could not enter the bunker, they began to look for various things to cover their heads.

    The second and third rounds of bombardment arrived soon.

    There were constant napalm barrels air-exploding directly on the heads of these Japanese troops.  Maximize its power.

    At this time, the entire Japanese army front began to be shrouded in flames and became a burning front.

    And on this front, a large number of burned Japanese soldiers were screaming at the top of their lungs, and the sounds they made were as shrill as ghosts.

    Suematsu Shigeshi saw all this.  But he was helpless.

    A large number of Japanese soldiers were burned in the flames.  The remaining ones were hiding in the civil engineering works, trembling as they watched the flames falling from the sky outside.

    The napalm bombardment lasted for a full fifteen minutes.  Hundreds of napalm bombs were fired at the Japanese positions.

    Some of these napalm bombs exploded in the air, while others exploded on the ground.  But no matter which method was used, it caused a lot of damage to the Japanese army.

    On the high ground occupied by the Fourth Army and the Eighth Route Army, the soldiers who were preparing to attack the Japanese positions on the flanks were already ready for battle.

    At this moment, the red signal flare representing the infantry attack was launched into the air.

    Seeing the red signal flare, all the commanders involved in the attack roared: "Charge!!!"

    ¡°Then the earth-shattering shouts of killing came from the front and sides of the Japanese army¡¯s position.

    The Japanese troops who were about to attack now saw that the large area of ??darkness in front of them was actually the enemy's attacking troops. They all roared and began to enter the positions that were still burning with napalm.

    In order to be able to fight in the trenches, the Japanese soldiers could only use engineer shovels to bury the unburned napalm with soil and then burn it out.

    This process took some time.  It was during this period that the enemy's troops on the flank had begun to attack them.

    The Japanese machine gun bunkers are basically designed to deal with frontal attacks, and few are used to deal with side attacks.

    This forced the Japanese heavy machine gun firepower to be deployed in the trenches on the sides.  However, in doing so, the safety of the Japanese heavy machine guns was greatly reduced, and they became the first target of the assault troops.

    The snipers deployed on the flanking high ground had already aimed their guns at the Japanese light and heavy machine gun positions.

    Whenever the Japanese light and heavy machine guns fire, there will be snipers who will lock their guns on these Japanese firepower points.

    Most of the Japanese heavy machine guns cannot even discharge thirty rounds of bullets from a bullet plate, and will be directly killed by snipers from a distance.

    Without the firepower of light and heavy machine guns, the Japanese soldiers could only use their rifles to shoot at the charging Eighth Route Army soldiers and Fourth Army soldiers.

    Their marksmanship is very accurate and can ensure a high hit rate within a range of 100 meters.  They can hit even a moving target.

    However, the heavy machine guns installed on the flanking positions did not give these Japanese infantry a chance to perform.

    They are equipped with a large number of general-purpose machine guns and Gatling machine guns, all of which are strafing the Japanese positions with intensive firepower.

    The bullets fired by the heavy machine guns formed a straight line at the location of the Japanese troops.  The Japanese soldiers who had no time to dodge were directly hit by bullets fired from this straight line and fell to the ground, dying.

    The Japanese army had already lost many soldiers in the petrol bomb bombardment just now.  Suffering such a targeted attack at this time, the front line on the flanks suddenly became unable to hold up.

    Xia Yang's troops stormed the flanks of Takeuchi Lian's position.At this time, the troops on the front did not relax.  They repeatedly charged against the Japanese positions with more ferocity than the last time.

    Renage Takeuchi commanded his machine gunners to fire intensively at the enemies who were slowly advancing toward them like ants inside the bunker.

    But at this time, the commander of the flank told him by phone that the flank needed support and that the enemy was about to rush to the position.

    When Takeuchi Rengami heard this, he looked outside the bunker and saw thousands of enemies attacking their position. He knew that if he mobilized troops from the front at this time, it was very likely that the front would also fall into the hands of the enemy.

    He immediately said loudly: "I would like to request the division commander to mobilize troops from the rear to support the flanks of our army. Our army does not have bunkers and other fortifications on the flanks and cannot effectively respond to the enemy's attack."

    His request soon reached Suematsu Shigeshi.

    Suematsu Shigeshi frowned as he looked at the gradually captured front line.

    He knew that if troops were deployed from the rear positions at this time to support Takeuchi's flank.  If the enemy attacks the rear positions directly after defeating the Takeuchi Regiment, it is very likely that the rear positions will also be breached by the enemy due to insufficient troops.

    Suematsu Shigeshi did not dare to take such a risk. In his mind, he had already made a rough decision.

    "Order Takeuchi Renage to decisively abandon the position after the flank is lost and enter the rear position to continue defense." Suematsu Shigeshi said.

    His order was quickly conveyed to Takeuchi Rengami.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
