    Although this will make it difficult for their troops to move, it can ensure to the greatest extent that their troops can support them for a longer period of time when the enemy attacks them.

    When reinforcements arrive at dawn, they will be able to launch a counterattack against the enemy's attacking troops.

    It is precisely because of this consideration that the Japanese troops on the front line or in the rear are all organized into brigades.

    A total of six to seven thousand troops were crowded into a narrow area.

    They built a large number of fortifications around these areas.

    These Japanese troops dug trenches, stretched barbed wire, etc. to prevent the enemy's tank troops from launching a vicious attack on them.

    With these fortifications, they can at least avoid the bad luck of being completely annihilated by the enemy's troops in a short period of time.

    However, these Japanese troops still underestimated the firepower and combat capabilities of the Fourth Army.

    That night, Wei Xing once again commanded his troops and began to attack the Japanese army.

    Like the night before, this time they also used large-scale maneuvers to encircle the Japanese troops who had left independently.

    And then in a very short period of time, all the Japanese troops were wiped out, or severely damaged, making it impossible for them to continue fighting.

    After identifying the location of the Japanese army, Wei Xing's troops immediately began to march along the planned route.

    Their troops, whether infantry or armored troops, all began to run wildly on the plains of northern Henan.

    These soldiers were running almost tirelessly.

    They passed through the gaps in the Japanese positions. As these Japanese troops reduced their strength to prevent night attacks by the Fourth Army, the gaps between their positions and camps became wider and wider.

    This actually makes it more convenient for the troops of the Fourth Army to intersperse and make detours.

    And after more than three hours of detours and interspersions, these troops of the Fourth Army had successfully arrived around a Japanese brigade.

    They once again surrounded the Japanese brigade from four directions.

    The distance between this Japanese brigade and another Japanese brigade is not too far.

    ¡°However, if it was really dark, these Japanese troops would not dare to come over easily to support them.

    Because they didn¡¯t know how many enemy troops were hidden in the four weeks of darkness.

    If they rush to support, it is very likely that they will also be surrounded by enemies.

    This is why the Japanese army only dared to operate during the day and did not dare to make any counterattacks at night.

    The scout troops sent by the Japanese brigade commander on the periphery had discovered traces of enemy troop activities half an hour ago.

    The Japanese brigade commander felt that he might become the enemy's next target.

    So he was immediately sent a telegram to his division commander, hoping to send surrounding troops to attack the enemy and prevent the enemy from surrounding them again, causing them to suffer too much losses that night.

    But the order given by the Japanese division commander was also to let them stay put and not to act rashly.

    Until around 1:00 in the morning.

    The troops of the Fourth Army finally arrived at the outskirts of the Japanese army.

    After they arrived here, they did not launch an attack immediately, but waited for the artillery troops to be in place.

    Not long after, the artillery units of the Fourth Army had already aimed their artillery at the Japanese camps and defensive positions.

    Hundreds of artillery pieces fired at the Japanese positions at the same time after Wei Xing's order was given.

    Amid bursts of roaring sounds, the Japanese army's position was suddenly shrouded in smoke.

    After hearing the whistling sound of artillery shells, the Japanese soldiers who had been awakened by the Japanese brigade commander hid in the surrounding trenches one after another.

    However, the shells fired by these large-caliber howitzers and the aerial dogs dug by the Japanese army have no way to function at all.

    As long as these artillery shells land on the Japanese army's position, they can blast a large crater several meters in diameter on the position.

    And the Japanese troops within a radius of tens of meters will be killed by the shock wave in such a violent explosion, or directly blown to pieces.

    The flames caused by the explosion of the artillery shell once again blackened theThe dark sky turned blood red.

    And the Japanese army's position was once again in chaos.

    At the same time, the air force of the Fourth Army was dispatched again.

    They cooperated with the artillery troops and began to carry out large-scale bombing of the Japanese camps.

    They dropped a large number of incendiary bombs, white phosphorus bombs, and various high-explosive bombs.  The purpose was to pour the most ferocious firepower onto the Japanese positions in the shortest possible time.  At the same time, it caused the greatest damage to the Japanese army.

    Seeing this scene, the Japanese soldiers also showed desperate looks.

    Because they know that the same thing will happen to them.

    The Japanese brigade that was annihilated last night was probably their fate.

    Sure enough, after such a fierce bombing, they heard the roar of tank engines, as well as the sonorous and powerful steps of a large number of infantry.

    The Japanese commander picked up his binoculars, and through the diffuse smoke, with the help of the light of the lighting lamp, he could vaguely see the enemy troops at the end of the horizon, like a black wall, slowly moving towards them.

    While they were moving, the heavy machine guns on the tanks and armored vehicles began to fire wildly at them.

    The dense bullets and artillery shells were like a storm, raining down on the heads of these Japanese troops.

    Many Japanese soldiers who had just crawled out of the trench had been shot through the body by heavy machine gun bullets before they realized what was going on.

    The commander of the Japanese army began to yell: "Everyone, get into combat position immediately, everyone, get into combat position immediately.

    The flares will light up the entire 4 weeks, so don¡¯t let the enemy continue in the darkness and rush to our position.  "

    At this moment, mortar shells and rocket launchers began to pour onto the Japanese positions.

    On the truck of the Fourth Army, the rocket nest is installed in the compartment of the truck.

    As long as you get close to the Japanese position, these rockets will be launched directly, and then cover an area of ??several hundred meters in radius.

    Under such fierce firepower from the Fourth Army, the Japanese defensive position seemed a bit vulnerable at this time, even like paper.

    The most troublesome thing for the Japanese army is that this time the firepower of the enemy attack was launched from four directions at the same time.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
