Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Often it only takes one night for them to make a Japanese brigade lose its combat capability or even be completely wiped out.

    This time, Xia Yang concentrated even more troops and firepower, and the area where the Japanese army was located was also under attack from both sides.

    So, two to three days is completely enough.

    The commander of the Japanese 109th Division asked Ichiro to look into the distance with a telescope.

    In that direction, Japanese soldiers were engaging in fierce exchanges of fire with soldiers of the Fourth Army.

    The diffuse smoke made it impossible for him to even see clearly the situation on the battlefield ahead.

    However, the information that kept coming kept echoing in his ears.

    "Reporting to the division commander, the enemy's offensive is fierce. Our fifth regiment in the front has suffered heavy losses. We request to be rotated to the rear for a temporary rest."

    "Report, the mountain brigade cannot hold on any longer. More than half of their battle losses have been lost. If this continues, the enemy will break through in their direction."

    "Reporting to the division commander, our left wing has been bombarded by enemy artillery fire. More than ten flat-fire cannons deployed in that direction were destroyed by the enemy. At the same time, nearly a hundred soldiers were killed. I hope we can immediately dispatch two squadrons of troops.  Troop support.¡±

    ¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤¡¤

    These messages, like a spell, echoed in Ichiro's ears.

    He was a little irritable and angry inside, but there was nothing he could do about it.

    At least, so far, they can only try their best to resist from the front.

    However, Ichiro knew very well last time that they had lost a lot of troops in the fierce enemy shelling just now.

    At this time, it was already a bit difficult to barely fight the enemy head-on.

    Although there are several regiments of troops currently fighting the enemy at the front, they are not at full strength.

    If this continues, he will have no choice but to retreat to the mountains on the flanks.

    This is also a helpless move, because these two divisions are now besieged here by the enemy. They are attacked from both sides. The combat situation is very unfavorable.

    If their main force on the front still cannot break through the enemy's high ground before tonight, then they need to choose to retreat tonight.

    This is not because Ichiro was cowardly last time, but because the violent bombardment of artillery fire from the Fourth Army just now shattered the last bit of pride in his heart.

    Kameda Jiro ran over at this time and asked: "How are you doing here?"

    "Why did you come running here?"

    Seeing the arrival of Kameda Jiro, Ichiro was a little surprised last time.

    Logically speaking, Kameda Jiro should now be in their division's defense area, fending off the enemy's attacking troops, rather than appearing in his headquarters.

    Kameda Jiro said breathlessly: "I don't want to either. The phone line was blown up. If I want to discuss countermeasures with you, I can only come over and talk to you in person."

    "What's wrong?"

    Let Ichiro ask last time.

    He had a vague feeling in his heart that Kameda Jiro coming to see him this time would definitely not be a good thing.

    ¡°Otherwise, he wouldn¡¯t have come over in person.

    "Can you lend me a regiment of troops? There is a gap in our line, and we really don't have the troops to replenish it. All my guards have filled it.

    ¡°If it had been another hour, I would have thrown myself in.  "

    Kameda Jiro said this, the emotion in his eyes seemed to be pleading.

    As a result, without waiting for Ichiro to speak, a staff officer from the Japanese 109th Division hurried in and said out of breath: "Report, there is a gap in the defense line of our 7th Regiment. The enemy  It's coming, and the 7th Wing is trying its best to block it, but"

    When he said this, he noticed Kameda Jiro.

    Ichiro looked at Kameda Jiro helplessly last time.

    Kameda Jiro understood, waved his hand and said: "Okay, if I didn't say what I just said, when do you plan to retreat?"

    "This I have to ask the headquarters for instructions."

    Let me tell you last time.

    "I'm afraid that the headquarters will let us hold on."

    Kameda Jiro said and walked out worriedly.

    Looking at Jiro Kameda¡¯s back, Ichiro realized last time that their entire defense line was on the verge of collapse and could collapse at any time.

    ¡°Transfer back the brigade that originally attacked the enemy¡¯s high ground.??Supplement the front line of defense.  "

    At this time, Ichiro made the most difficult decision.

    Hearing this, the staff officer beside him immediately said: "But, if this is the case, then we"

    As he said this, he looked at the high ground behind him.

    Their attack on the highlands is still continuing. Only by attacking from both sides can they achieve their greatest effect.

    But now it seems that they can only give up the attack on the highlands and turn their forces back to support their frontal resistance.

    Thinking of this, he also realized how critical the situation was at this time.

    "No one would have thought that the enemy's first round of attack would be so fierce. We have no way of resisting such a terrifying and violent attack in such terrain.

    The most critical thing is that because the distance is too far, our rear artillery units cannot even provide us with any effective support.

    As for our own artillery, it has been completely wiped out by the enemy's fierce bombing, leaving only a few artillery pieces that can be used.  "

    When he said this, he also let out a bitter smile.

    "However, even so, we will only extend the time of the defeat."

    His staff officer said at this time.

    Ichiro next to him shook his head and said: "No, at least, we can use the strength of this brigade to support us until the evening.

    When night falls, we can still retreat and break out.  "

    He said this and looked at the two highlands behind him.

    It is almost impossible to cross between the highlands of getting along.

    The enemy's flanking positions on the two highlands have deployed dense firepower nets.

    And between the two highlands, there is a very flat area. If they escape from that direction, there is almost no difference between them and death.

    The enemy only needs to fire a few flares at them, and all their soldiers will become moving targets for the enemy to practice their marksmanship.

    Therefore, it is a good idea to break out to the flank.

    There are mountains there, which can prevent enemy shelling, and at the same time, you can get rid of enemy pursuit faster.

    If the enemy pursues, they only need to stay with a small number of troops and guard some strategic positions to withstand the enemy's pursuing troops and buy enough time for their main force to retreat.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
