    We hope that the troops behind us can provide us with some artillery cover.  "

    The Japanese brigade commander responsible for leading the vanguard force said.

    "yes!!"

    The soldier behind him replied.

    Not long after, intelligence came from the rear, indicating that they could obtain artillery support and be allowed to launch an attack.

    The Japanese brigade commander no longer hesitated and directly issued the order to attack.

    At this moment, everything seemed to have become much quieter on the positions outside the bridge.

    The Japanese scout looked at the Fourth Army position in front and said to the soldiers around him: "Something is wrong. According to the intelligence, there should be a lot of enemies on the opposite side now. Why can't I see any of them on the position?"

    Hearing this, the soldier on his side said: "Our previous troops and the intelligence we received before should not have any problems. It may be that the enemies are hiding in their positions.

    And if you look at the rear of the bridge, there are lights flashing on the other side. The enemy should also have a blocking position at that location.  "

    "The troops behind us will be coming to support us soon. It is estimated that the support from the artillery troops will also come.

    How many people are on the opposite position will be known at a glance as soon as our people launch their charge.  "

    As the Japanese reconnaissance team leader said, he heard dense footsteps coming from behind him.

    They turned their heads and saw that two squadrons of Japanese troops had arrived at this position under the leadership of their commanders.

    There should be more Japanese troops further back.

    The strength of the two squadrons coming now should only be to conduct a tentative attack on the enemy's troops to determine the firepower of the enemy's troops on the opposite side.

    After they arrived, they did not stay too much, but directly approached the bridge.

    On the position of the Fourth Army, there is a regiment of infantry troops stationed here.

    They are a combat force formed after the reorganization of a militia group. Although they have only two thousand people and are still a militia group, their combat effectiveness is definitely not bad.

    Before joining the battle, they had received nearly half a year of training.

    These military trainings include many items. In addition to basic shooting, they will also accept regular army training subjects.

    This has given them a strong combat effectiveness.

    Although the Japanese army on the opposite side is a B division, many of its soldiers are new recruits, and there are not too many real veterans.

    Soldiers who had experienced battles, that is, after landing, had several small-scale battles with small groups of the Fourth Army and the Eighth Route Army.

    "The enemies have touched us, quite a few."

    Using the infrared night vision equipment, it is not very difficult for them to capture the movements of the enemy on the opposite side in the dark.

    Now the strength of the two squadrons of the Japanese army and their distance have been calculated, and even the size of the number of people is within their detection range.

    ¡°I saw it, let them come over, wait until they are in front of the position and then fight.

    The brigade commander over there sent an order, saying that the Japs opposite had a division of troops and asked us to hold off until dawn.  "

    The person who spoke was the leader of the militia group. As he spoke, he took out his pipe, took out some tobacco leaves from his pocket, and lit it inside.

    "It seems that only two squadrons have arrived. I think it's probably a test."

    The staff officer next to him couldn't help but yawned as he spoke.

    It is already late at night. Most of the soldiers here have been marching continuously in the first half of the night, and many of them are still asleep.

    "Go and wake them up. The Japs are coming. I guess the bombardment will come soon."

    The leader said and took a puff of dry cigarette.

    Soon, the soldiers on the position were woken up one by one.

    Just after the soldiers heard the order, a roar came over.

    The Japanese bombing came as scheduled.

    That was the artillery fire at the level of a reorganized division of the Japanese army. It was extremely fierce.

    However, because they were afraid of destroying the bridge, the Japanese troops did not use large-caliber artillery shells during the bombing.

    That stone bridge may not be able to withstand it if it is bombed by heavy artillery shells.

    However, even so, the Japanese artillery fire was enoughViolently.

    Especially in the area now being bombed by the Japanese, the positions constructed by the soldiers of the Fourth Army are relatively simple. They just dug simple cat-ear holes and made some expansions based on the Japanese positions.

    Now the Japanese artillery bombardment has also caused them to suffer a certain amount of casualties.

    Fortunately, these casualties did not have that great impact on their combat effectiveness.

    After the bombing by the Japanese army ended, the two Japanese squadrons that had just arrived here immediately launched a charge against them.

    Although the Japanese soldiers in the darkness cannot be seen by the naked eye, infrared night vision devices can easily capture their location.

    Now these Japanese soldiers have just advanced to a distance of less than a hundred meters, and illumination bombs are already flying into the air.

    It illuminated all their figures.

    Those Japanese soldiers did not stop because their location was discovered. On the contrary, their attacks became more determined and their charging speed became faster.

    Behind them were the accompanying scouts.

    The main task of these Japanese scouts is to mark the enemy's firepower points ahead, so that subsequent artillery fire can carry out the next round of bombing of the enemy's positions.

    As for the Japanese troops of the two squadrons who attacked in the first wave, the more purpose was to see what the firepower on the opposite side was like and where it was located.

    As the two squadrons of the Japanese army charged, the soldiers of the Fourth Army raised their hearts to their throats.

    Many of them are participating in combat for the first time.

    The expressions on the faces of some veterans were very calm. They just waited there quietly until the Japanese assault troops entered their firing range, and then they suddenly opened fire on the Japanese troops.

    Faced with the sudden appearance of enemy troops shooting at them, the Japanese soldiers were caught off guard. The Japanese soldiers charging forward were knocked down in a blink of an eye by the firepower of heavy machine guns, submachine guns and rifles.

    The other soldiers of the Japanese army immediately fell to the ground, and at the same time called on the mortar positions and heavy machine gun positions they had deployed in the rear to suppress the enemy on the opposite side with fire.

    "Pay attention to the transfer of firepower."

    The leader of the militia regiment was shooting and shouting loudly to divert the attention of his heavy machine gunners.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
