The Japanese attack here had to be temporarily stopped.
The casualties of the several regiments they served as forwards were too great.
These Japanese troops entered the positions abandoned by the Fourth Army, intending to wait until the subsequent reserve troops came up, and then they would retreat to the rear to rest temporarily.
But what these Japanese soldiers will not expect now is that He Changxing has already planted bombs under their buttocks. At this point, they were sitting on a powder keg that could explode at any time.
And the start button of this powder keg is in He Changxing's hand.
"Look, these little Japs are so happy that they all started dancing on the battlefield." He Changxing looked at the Japanese soldiers through the telescope and said.
"Master, do you want to press the explosion button now?" the chief of staff asked.
He Changxing shook his head and said: "Now is not the best time. When the follow-up troops of the Japs begin to charge, we will activate the button to blow up all the Japanese troops hiding in the trenches behind, and then launch a counterattack. Directly destroy the area Retake the position again."
After saying this, he showed a somewhat sinister smile.
The staff officer next to him asked: "Master, who did you learn these damaging moves from? You didn't fight in this style before."
He Changxing said: "Who else could it be? Of course it's our army. This is how our army fights, and we use all possible means."
With that said, he looked at the Japanese army in the distance.
At this time, several other regiments of the Japanese army had already entered the original defensive positions of the Fourth Army. Several Japanese regiments that had suffered heavy casualties and participated in the early attack gradually withdrew from this position and went to the rear to rest and recuperate.
The offensive rotation did not take long. After entering the position, the several Japanese regiments that rotated over immediately began to build mortar and light and heavy machine gun positions in the rear. More than three hundred meters ahead from their side is the enemy's second line of defense.
What surprised the Japanese army was that the enemy did not take advantage of this opportunity to launch a counterattack against them. Not even a single mortar shell landed on their defensive position.
But the Japanese army thought that the enemy on the opposite side might have suffered greater casualties, so they could no longer launch a countercharge against them.
With this thought in mind, Honda Ligen immediately began to plan the second round of attack.
They had no more time to waste, because the living space of the two besieged Japanese brigades was getting smaller and smaller.
The speed at which the enemy's armored forces advance is so terrifying that it can even be described as being barren of vegetation wherever they go.
The besieged Japanese army had tried its best to resist at any time, but after suffering huge casualties, they could only retreat steadily and were forced to retreat continuously.
The plan originally discussed by Honda Ligen, Akechi Natsuki and others to tear a gap in the defense line through a fierce charge has now been ruined.
Now they can only use the extremely crude defense line in that narrow area to barely resist the attack of the armored troops of the Fourth Army. Surviving the continuous attacks, waiting for Honda Rigen's rescue force, they were able to tear out a line of defense from the enemy's encirclement.
After a brief adjustment, several Japanese regiments that were attacking in rotation began to advance toward the Fourth Army's second line of defense under the cover of mortar shells.
Thousands of Japanese troops spread out on a long line of defense.
This time, there was no barbed wire in front of them. However, the enemy's large number of trenches, dense machine gun rocket nests and other firepower will become their nightmare.
Seeing the Japanese troops, they began to crawl out of the trenches and launched a charge against their positions.
He Changxing then said: "Order the troops to prepare for a counter-charge. Once an explosion occurs in the position occupied by the enemy, we will immediately start a counter-charge to recapture the position we gave up."
"yes!!"
At this time, on the defensive position of the Fourth Army, the soldiers took advantage of the short time just now to eat some food to replenish their physical strength. The wounded also took advantage of this time to be transferred by trucks and jeeps to field hospitals in the rear for emergency treatment.
They looked at the slowly approaching Japanese troops and began to check the condition of the firearms in their hands. Then they stretched out the muzzles of their guns and pointed them at the Japanese troops advancing from a distance.
"The Japanese army is two hundred meters away!! Shoot!!"
He Changxing roared, and the machine guns and riflemen began to shoot at the Japanese troops in the distance.
Two hundredAt such a distance, the Japanese troops in their field of vision were actually about the size of a soybean. But at this distance, they originally killed the Japanese troops through dense fire coverage, rather than through precise shooting.
Bullets rained down, forming a web in the air. Especially the crossfire formed by the Gatling heavy machine guns placed on both wings was a nightmare for the Japanese troops.
The Japanese soldiers who were charging forward fell to pieces in a blink of an eye. These Japanese soldiers were crawling on the ground, climbing forward while shooting at the soldiers of the Fourth Army.
The soldiers of the Fourth Army are all veterans and have fought against the Japanese army many times. Know that when fighting the Japanese army, you must be careful of those Japanese veterans with accurate marksmanship.
So most of them only stuck half of their heads out to shoot, and when loading their rifles, they hid their entire bodies in the ditch. Minimize the chance of being shot in the head by a Japanese veteran.
At the same time, behind them, rocket nests and mortars also began to bombard the charging Japanese troops.
¡°Smoke bombs, keep throwing smoke bombs!!¡±
The Japanese commander shouted.
As the Japanese commander shouted, the Japanese mortars in the rear immediately began to fire smoke bombs at the forward positions. The Japanese infantry also began to throw smoke bombs forward.
Along with the smoke, a large amount of white smoke quickly enveloped the battlefield.
Those Japanese soldiers immediately began to run quickly in the smoke. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
