    At this time, there were only two or three hours until dark, but the setting sun was still floating above the sea and refused to set.

    Now the light of the setting sun is falling on Oda Nobukawa's cheek.

    He gently touched his slightly growing beard with the palm of his hand, and then said: "It seems the enemy doesn't want us to have a good night's sleep.

    I thought that after arriving on this land, the enemies on the opposite side would have some tips on how to treat guests.

    Let us have a good sleep, or treat us to a sumptuous dinner.  "

    After saying this, he yawned, and then said in a vague voice: "It seems that we will not be able to get a good night's sleep tonight."

    "Then let the enemy have a good sleep on this land, the kind that will never wake up."

    "Kajima Shimei, the chief of staff of the 31st Brigade, said that he followed Oda Nobukawa and walked towards the camp not far away.

    Because we have a premonition that the Fourth Army may launch a night attack together with the Eighth Route Army tonight.  So the Japanese army began to use the few hours before nightfall to prepare for battle.

    They say they are ready for battle, but in fact there is not much they can do.

    After all, they had just arrived here for a day, and there was no terrain near the coastline that could support them.

    These Japanese troops could only choose to build some simple trenches, and at the same time make appropriate adjustments to their troop deployment to guard against possible night attacks by the Fourth Army.

    Although he was reminded by Yamamoto Isoroku, Oda Nobikawa, the commander of the 31st Brigade of the Japanese Army, was full of confidence.

    He determined that even if the enemy attacked fiercely and had armored troops, it would be impossible for them to penetrate their defenses overnight.

    What's more, at this time, there was another Japanese brigade more than 20 kilometers south of them.

    This brigade can provide them with military support at any time, and the aircraft carrier formation behind them can also provide them with firepower support.

    The night in the North China Plain slowly opens from east to west.

    Like a huge black veil, it shrouds this unstable land.

    Xia Yang used an infrared night vision device to observe the Japanese sentry at the front in the distance, and then said to the soldiers around him: "In a moment, the infantry troops will pass through the gap in the enemy's sentry.

    After you return to the enemy's camp, you will lie in ambush and wait for our army's artillery attack.

    "Then the armored troops began to advance forward, striving to penetrate the Japanese perimeter defenses within an hour and rush to the village where the main force of the Japanese 31st Brigade was located.  "

    "yes!!"

    The several infantry and tank commanders who participated in the first wave said and immediately returned to their respective units.

    At this moment, as night falls, the main force of the 120th Division is also ready to pass through the gaps in the Japanese defense positions and near the coastline to block the enemy reinforcements.

    It¡¯s eight o¡¯clock in the evening, and the cool sea breeze blows from the Bohai Sea, caressing the Beijing-Tianjin Plain under the night sky.

    Although the Japanese soldiers had been busy all day, they now had their eyes wide open and did not dare to fall asleep easily.

    They have received orders that the enemy may launch a night attack tonight.

    The nervous and excited Japanese soldiers did not feel tired even after a busy day.

    Some people are looking forward to it, and some people are afraid of the upcoming battle tonight.

    After nightfall completely fell, the main force of the 120th Division began to bypass the Japanese observation posts and advance toward the northern coast.

    They will build a blocking line in the coastal area to block the support of Japanese troops.

    In the darkness of the night, they seemed to be ghosts, and there was no movement at all despite the movement of an army of tens of thousands of people.

    Every Eighth Route Army soldier marched silently with his head bowed, and all communications were in sign language.

    They were like sharp knives, stabbing hard at the Japanese support road.

    At 10:30 in the evening, the commanders and fighters of the 120th Division had led the troops to the coast.

    They occupied several surrounding villages and then used them as a basis to build a defense line.

    This line of defense is five kilometers deep and is connected by small positions dotted around.  In addition, the 120th Division also has a mobile force of about 10,000 people that can be used at any time.??The siege of Japanese reinforcements.

    General He¡¯s night attack this time was not just to ambush the Japanese support troops.

    He even planned to set up a pocket formation, and when the Japanese reinforcements got in, he would use mobile forces to cut off the Japanese army's retreat and surround it with the Japanese reinforcements.

    At eleven o'clock in the evening, all preparations for the attack have been arranged.

    Xia Yang closed the hatch of the armored vehicle, then got into the cabin and looked at the combat map under the bright light.

    On the map, he used a red flag to indicate the location of the 120th Division, with a smile on his lips.

    Then, he picked up the walkie-talkie and said softly: "The attack begins."

    The sound was not loud, but in everyone's ears, it was as resolute as steel nails hitting the ground.

    "yes!!"

    Everyone responded, and all the troops soared into the sky with a red signal flare.

    Seeing the red signal flare, all the artillery units of the Fourth Army immediately began to launch a fierce bombardment.

    ¡°Boom boom!!¡±

    From several artillery positions of the Fourth Army, the flying artillery shells broke through the tranquility of the night sky almost in the blink of an eye, and flew towards the Japanese camp with a sharp whistling sound.

    The locations of these camps stationed by the Japanese army had been marked by the scouts of the Fourth Army during the day.

    At this time, they seemed to be fixed targets, and they were quickly covered by the first round of artillery bombardment.

    Those Japanese soldiers who had not had time to fall asleep realized something was wrong when they heard the piercing whistling sound.

    ¡°Boom boom!!¡±

    A loud noise was heard, and as soon as the Japanese soldiers poked their heads out of the tent, artillery shells exploded around them.

    ¡°Boom!!!!¡±

    More than ten major positions of the Japanese army were the first to receive fierce artillery bombardment.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
