"Okay, then I'll have some fun and give you two old guys some command."
Ding Wei said, then turned his gaze to the battlefield.
Kong Jie smiled and without saying anything else, he led his soldiers and walked outside.
On the frontal position, the soldiers of the independent regiment on the high ground have all hid on the reverse slope.
Here, they can avoid the Japanese artillery bombardment to the greatest extent.
At the same time, on the Eighth Route Army positions built on the plains on both wings, the soldiers also got into the air-raid shelters and cat-ear holes, preparing to deal with the artillery bombardment that the Japanese army might arrive at any time.
About ten minutes later, on the Japanese position opposite, their commander-in-chief Yoshijiro Kozu issued an order to attack.
The Japanese army's fierce attack began from this moment.
They concentrated hundreds of artillery pieces and launched a fierce bombardment on the Eighth Route Army positions.
Among these fired artillery shells, there were various bombs such as high-explosive bombs and incendiary bombs. They were like huge palms, as if they were going to overturn the entire ground and pull all the Eighth Route Army soldiers hidden in them out of the trenches. He pulled it out and threw it to the ground.
The shock wave generated by the explosion spread in all directions, like a huge boulder breaking the calm lake surface, causing waves to ripple.
Under the power of Japanese artillery, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army hid in their positions one after another.
Some recruits were uneasy. They had had brief battles with the Japanese army before, but they had never seen such a violent shelling.
Facing such fierce bombardment by the Japanese army, the veterans seemed more calm and calm compared to the recruits.
In Li Yunlong¡¯s words, people are dead and birds are flying in the sky. When the Japs¡¯ shells are supposed to hit them, they will definitely hit them. No matter how scared they are, it¡¯s useless.
These words may sound reasonable, but political commissar Zhao Gang and Zhao feel that they are quite lacking in standards.
The mood of the Eighth Route Army soldiers on the position was as high as the surrounding air, which was ignited by these bombs and gradually burned.
Just when the Japanese army launched the first round of bombardment on the frontal positions of the Eighth Route Army, at this time on the Japanese army's rear defense line, the Second Armored Division of the Fourth Army, together with many infantry, began to launch an attack on the defensive positions of the two Japanese brigades. Charged.
Before the official charge began, they first used artillery, rockets and other weapons to clean up the Japanese positions.
In a very short period of time, the defensive position that the Japanese army had just repaired was bombarded to a great extent. The scattered corpses of the Japanese army could be seen everywhere, the Japanese army's extremely messy position, and the machine gun positions that had been bombarded in half.
The remaining Japanese troops barely crawled out of the trenches and mud.
Through the smoke, they saw the enemy armored forces in the distance approaching them rapidly.
¡°Soldiers, samurai, fight for His Majesty the Emperor!!¡±
The Japanese brigade commander shouted, raising his katana high.
The Japanese soldiers beside him rushed into the position in front of them along the communication trench.
The barbed wire fence originally placed in front of the position by the Japanese army had been completely torn apart by the intensive artillery fire of the Fourth Army.
Only sections of broken barbed wire remained, still clinging to their original positions, as if they were mutilated human corpses.
Liu Fudong sat in the tank and watched his soldiers advancing forward.
He observed the situation of the Japanese positions in front, and then shouted: "Fire volleys of tanks, artillery, and machine guns to suppress the Japanese firepower!!! The infantry moves forward, covering the tanks and armored vehicles to advance to prevent enemy infantry from sneak attacks on our armored vehicles." .¡±
"yes!!!"
His orders echoed throughout the attacking ranks through loudspeakers hung on armored vehicles and tanks.
Hearing Liu Fudong¡¯s order, the tanks and armored vehicles immediately stopped and pointed the muzzles of their guns and machine guns at the Japanese defense positions in front, like cavalrymen straightening their spears.
The infantry units on the sides and rear of the tanks and armored vehicles moved forward at this time, following the slow movement of the armored vehicles and tank vehicles, and gradually approached the Japanese defensive positions.
Hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles opened fire at the same time, covering a battlefield that was more than several kilometers wide.
A rain of firepower instantly enveloped the heads of the Japanese troops.
Several Japanese soldiers who tried to shoot their heads were shot through by flying bullets, piercing the helmets above their heads.
The bullet is passing through the steelAfter putting on the helmet, it drilled through their heads like an electric drill.
Blood and brain matter were mixed together and shot out from the back of their heads, then adhered to the entire inside of the helmet and flowed to their necks.
The Japanese soldiers on the side, seeing their condition, already knew what kind of misfortune these people had suffered.
The intensive firepower formed by armored vehicles and tanks allowed the infantry of the Fourth Army to successfully advance to a close range of only twenty or thirty meters away from the Japanese position.
At this time, armored vehicles and tanks also began to increase their horsepower and charge forward.
Seeing the swarming troops of the Fourth Army, the Japanese soldiers roared and began to fight back against them.
The Japanese machine guns and rifles fired at the same time, and the bullets they fired fell on armored vehicles and tanks, as well as on the bodies of the charging Fourth Army soldiers.
"Da da da!!!!"
The continuous gunshots were like the noise made by heavy rain falling on the iron sheet, and like the harsh sound of the collision of iron chains and long knives, echoing in people's ears.
When the Japanese infantry units stood up to resist, on the flanks of the Japanese positions, two motorized infantry regiments of the Fourth Army were outflanking them.
Xia Yang not only wanted to pierce the front of the Japanese army, he also wanted to use all his strength to eat the two Japanese brigades whole.
The Japanese reconnaissance troops also discovered the situation on the flanks.
But when they reported this information to their brigade commander, they received no response.
At this time, the Japanese army's strength was seriously insufficient. The fierce attacks and continuous bombings of the Fourth Army caused their casualties to rise rapidly.
The combined strength of the two brigades is now less than 5,000.
It is already very difficult to barely resist the advance of the frontal armored troops, let alone allocate troops to defend the flanks.
According to common sense, the Japanese army should choose to retreat at this time.
But they cannot retreat because a new line of defense has not yet been established behind the Japanese troops. They should at least hold on until dark.
If the Fourth Army completely penetrates their defense line so easily, there is no doubt that in the next few hours, the Armored Forces of the Fourth Army will be like a sharp arrow shot out, destroying their rear that has not yet been successfully constructed. The defense lines were broken through in turn, and finally directly attacked their main force. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
