    "Order all reserve teams to enter the frontline battlefield immediately. We are now unable to accurately obtain information about the front line of defense, so we can only ask these reserve teams to move into positions in advance and stand by." Shigeshi Suematsu said.

    Saburo Isoda said: "But in this case, the position will be too crowded, the enemy's firepower will be fierce, and the artillery fire will be violent, which may cause too many casualties to our army."

    Their position on the front line is only so large, and one or two thousand people can be crammed into one position, which is already a lot.  If three to four thousand people were forcibly crammed in, the trench would probably not even be able to fit inside.

    But there is nothing that can be done about it. If the casualties in the front position are too great and the soldiers at the rear cannot be replenished in time, it will be even more terrifying if the gap is torn open in the position.

    "If the position is torn open, with the enemy's attack speed and efficiency, I'm afraid we will be able to eat bullets fired by the enemy's heavy machine gun on the city wall tomorrow." Shigeshi Suematsu said.

    Hearing this, Isoda Saburo also knew that it was not the time to consider the casualties of the soldiers at this time.

    "Yes! Your Excellency, Division Commander."

    Then, he ordered his communication soldiers to ride on horseback to notify various units.

    But this process, no matter how fast it is, still takes more than ten minutes.

    When the Japanese signal troops, riding on horses, notified the reserve troops by shouting.  The Japanese position in front was undergoing an extremely fierce attack.

    Xia Yang knew that the Japanese command system was temporarily paralyzed at this time.

    ¡°It will take at least a few hours for the Japanese army to repair the command system.  In these few hours, any command of the Japanese army will be one step behind itself.

    He needs to make full use of this period of time to attack the last line of defense on the periphery of the Japanese army.

    "Order the reserve troops to join the frontal attack. At the same time, the artillery fire from the rear will hit all the firepower and bombard the Japanese troops near the city gate to block the Japanese troops in the city and support the front line of defense to the greatest extent." Xia Yang ordered loudly.

    Following his order, the artillery troops immediately began to adjust their shooting angles and began to carry out fierce bombardment in the direction of the gate of Hunyuan County.

    Those who had just received the order were planning to rush out of the city gate to support the Japanese troops on the front line.  As soon as they left the city gate, they were bombarded by fierce artillery fire.

    Only the Japanese troops on the positions below the city wall were lucky enough to avoid artillery bombardment and support the front lines.

    The intensive artillery bombardment made it impossible for the Japanese troops who wanted to leave the city to support them to rush out of the city gate.

    Several troops tried to rush out, but they were bombarded by intensive artillery fire, leaving corpses everywhere.

    "Use the ladder and go down directly from the city wall." Suematsu Shigeshi shouted.

    But his orders could not be transmitted to the ears of the Japanese troops through radios and walkie-talkies.  So there was no choice but to order the cavalry to rush to the gates of each city again and notify the supporting troops.

    This time, I wasted more than ten minutes.

    The Japanese army found a large number of wooden ladders and many climbing ropes to move from the top of the city wall to the bottom.

    But the speed of leaving the city like this is far inferior to leaving directly from the city gate.  This wasted a lot of time.

    Just when these supporting Japanese troops were still lingering near the city wall, unable to leave the city in time to provide support.

    The Japanese troops on the front line have already begun to curse.

    They called the division headquarters and sent telegrams, but could not get any response.

    ¡°In fact, half an hour ago, many positions on the Japanese army¡¯s last line of defense had already begun to panic.

    But Suematsu Shigeshi was unable to get this information in time. He could only see the roar of artillery fire in the distance in the dark night, and the densely intertwined firepower, like meteors.

    Not only that, among the seven or eight Japanese positions on the periphery, Shigeshi Suematsu was unable to know in time which position needed more support.

    Because he had no way of knowing the casualties of those troops and the offensive pressure they faced.

    "Compared with Suematsu Shigeshi, whose eyes are dark, Xia Yang can rely on his powerful communication system to grasp the most accurate situation on the battlefield at any time.

    On the position of a Japanese brigade, the garrison of a thousand people was already in the midst of a fierce attack, with more than half of the casualties.

    But until now, they have not received a reserve team.  As for the communication system, it has just beenIt was completely destroyed, and they didn't even receive any more telegrams from the division headquarters.

    The Japanese army, which could not wait for reinforcements, was still facing increasingly fierce attacks from soldiers of the Eighth Route Army and the Fourth Army.

    The captain of the Japanese brigade has clearly felt it.  The enemy's attack density seems to have increased again.

    He could see through the firelight of the explosion the shaking figures of the enemy troops, rapidly approaching their position.

    And on their positions, soldiers were constantly being killed by mortar grenades, rockets, and bullets.

    Their trenches were filled with corpses and wounded, and the Japanese medical personnel were unable to provide them with timely treatment.

    "Captain, we can't hold it anymore, the enemy has already charged." A Japanese soldier ran over with his face covered in blood and shouted at him.

    He slowly raised his head and looked behind them.  The reserve troops that were supposed to support them seemed to have disappeared from the world, and even now there is no trace of them.

    "They, why haven't they come to support yet?" the Japanese captain shouted desperately.

    At this moment, the shouts of killing soldiers from the Eighth Route Army and the Fourth Army had reached his ears.

    He turned his head, and the soldiers in the front position had already begun to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy.

    But the enemies in the rear rushed towards their position like a tide.  The remaining few hundred of them were simply unable to resist.

    ¡°Baghya Road!!!¡±

    The Japanese army commander roared and rushed forward.

    "He shouted "bastard" to the enemies who were charging up, and also to the reserve troops who had been slow to come to support.

    Just as he rushed to the position, a rumble of horse hooves came from the front.

    Xia Yang and his cavalry began to directly attack the Japanese infantry after a gap appeared in the enemy's position.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
