At this moment, the rumbling sound of artillery outside stopped.
Zhu Chengshan put down the bayonet he just picked up again.
Olya reminded at this time: "The sound of artillery has stopped, the little devils are about to start charging."
She has been on the battlefield countless times and knows the Japanese offensive routines well.
After the Japanese artillery bombardment is over, the infantry will appear within their sights in less than five minutes.
Zhu Chengshan looked at himself in the mirror. It looked like he had shaved off half of his beard.
He put away the bayonet with some annoyance and said: "Mom, I'll shave the remaining half later."
Then, he looked at the soldiers in the air-raid shelter and said: "Brothers, go out and fight them!!"
After the words fell, he picked up his holster and walked outside with murderous intent. It seemed that the Japanese soldiers who disturbed his shaving should be punished on the spot.
The soldiers hiding in the air-raid shelter rushed directly to the defensive position in front of Zhaozhuang like a pack of wolves coming out of their cave.
They built a large number of communication trenches outside Zhaozhuang.
The construction of these communication trenches started within a week, and now they are all completed.
The artillery fire of the Japanese army was not very violent, and the artillery used did not include large-caliber heavy artillery.
Therefore, at this time, their defensive positions are basically intact.
The soldiers moved forward along the traffic trench and directly entered the machine gun positions they had preset before, as well as the bunkers used for defense.
Olya followed the soldiers and entered the trench.
Zhu Chengshan shouted and ordered his soldiers to enter the forward positions.
Opposite, the Japanese troops of the 201st Regiment under the Japanese 122nd Division are advancing forward.
The Japanese attack this time consisted of two squadrons of troops. They were spread out in the front, like moving soldier ants, squirming forward.
There is also a Japanese armored force in the side position of Zhaozhuang, waiting for the appropriate opportunity.
They hid behind a slope and used the cover of artillery fire to enter this area during the artillery bombardment.
This move is actually quite different from the Japanese army¡¯s previous offensive layout.
Generally speaking, the Japanese army will arrange some armor forces on the front of the attack to ensure the intensity of their frontal attack.
This time, they deployed their frontal offensive force into two infantry squadrons.
As for the truly powerful armor, it is placed on the side.
Chixin Hakuyama, captain of the Japanese 201st Regiment, looked sharply at the Fourth Army position ahead.
¡°The enemy only has one company of troops, probably around 150 people.
Their positions are well laid out, and our artillery fire coverage just now did not cause much damage to their positions. "
The staff officer next to him said.
Baishan Qianxin looked ahead coldly. After his staff officer finished speaking, he said in a cold tone: "Is it the strength of a company? There are indeed not many troops on the opposite side. Such an important place is actually just A company of troops was released.
¡°If we capture this place, the troops behind us can directly follow the highway and attack Langfang City. "
As he said this, he picked up his telescope and observed the terrain around Zhaozhuang.
The staff officer next to him said: "When I was in Kyoto, I often heard from my friends who returned from China that the people of the Fourth Army were very powerful in combat, especially during defensive battles, when there were often only corpses on the ground. Only then will we give up resistance.¡±
"Yes, I have heard it too, they are like a group of cockroaches, they are so tenacious and scary.
However, after all, there are only more than a hundred people on the opposite side, and there are three to four thousand of us, so we will not lose to them no matter what. "
¡°As he said this, Baishan Qianxin¡¯s face showed a confident smile.
In fact, he has never actually fought in a war. He only served as a captain in the country for a period of time, and when he went on an expedition, he was promoted to a company captain.
This seemed very sudden, but in fact it was inevitable, because his captain was transferred to the South Pacific and died in battle. Some of the other captains died in the hands of the Fourth Army, and some were also transferred to the Pacific battlefield. superior.
In the end, he was the only one left, so he could only be transferred up and continue to serve as the co-captain of the 201st Wing.
"The attack has begun."
At this time, the staff officer said that he saw the Japanese troops advancing in the distance and suddenly stopped., the soldiers in front even crawled directly to the ground.
At this time, the machine gun firepower deployed by the Fourth Army on both sides roared at the charging Japanese troops.
Amidst the roar of the black barrel, bullets knocked down more than a dozen Japanese soldiers charging ahead.
Some Japanese soldiers were directly hit in vital parts and died on the spot.
Although some Japanese soldiers were not hit critically, they were wounded on the ground by flying bullets.
Those large-caliber bullets fired from heavy machine guns will basically cause part of the person's body to disappear when they hit the human body.
A Japanese soldier was shot in the thigh and his entire thigh bone was directly broken. He was lying in a pool of blood, wailing in pain.
The Japanese soldier on the side seemed to want to crawl over and pull the injured Japanese soldier to his side.
But at this moment, a string of bullets came over, like fire whips flying out.
The outstretched arm of the Japanese soldier was also torn off by bullets from the heavy machine gun.
Originally one person was wailing, but now it has become a duet between two people.
"The soldiers on the opposite side are of good quality. The volley they fired just now was very accurate."
Baishan Qianxin looked at the situation on the battlefield and said.
His staff officer nodded and said, "Yes, I saw it.
In contrast, most of our soldiers have been trained locally for a long time. Although the level of training is very high, their military quality is already good.
But compared to the enemies on the opposite side, our people lack experience on the battlefield.
Look at the guys on the opposite side, they are too experienced on the battlefield.
They responded to our first wave of attacks very comfortably. So far, although our machine gun firepower has covered the past, even mortar shells have fallen on the enemy's positions.
But with their fortifications and constant transfer of firepower, we were passive everywhere and had almost no way to deal with the enemy's firepower on the opposite side.
¡°If at this time, our soldiers can use this place as a classroom and learn some battlefield experience, that would be a very good thing. "
Hearing these words, Baishan Qianxin said: "It's good to use this as a classroom for our soldiers, but the price paid is lives." (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
