Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The South Gate of Harbin was the focus of the Japanese attack.

    Outside the South City Gate, there are two defensive positions, which are horns to each other, protecting the city wall of Harbin.

    Originally, these two positions were where Japanese troops were stationed.  However, because they mobilized a large number of troops, the two Japanese squadrons originally stationed in these two positions have already left their positions.

    After Xia Yang's Fourth Army captured the city wall, they keenly discovered that there were no Japanese troops stationed in the two positions there.

    The Japanese army placed more forces in many positions on the periphery.

    They would never have imagined that Harbin City was not attacked from the outside by the enemy, but directly attacked from the inside.

    So these two positions are basically handed over to others.

    The large number of bunkers and trenches built by the Japanese army have become defensive positions for soldiers of the Fourth Army.

    After entering here, the soldiers of the Fourth Army immediately began to reinforce the positions here.

    During this period, the Japanese troops who were originally on the periphery tried to seize these two positions back, but they just dropped hundreds of corpses in front of the positions and were unable to cause any harm to these positions.

    Because every time they charge, they not only have to face the firepower of the enemy on the two front positions, but also need to face the firepower coverage on the city wall not far away.

    Facing this very three-dimensional cross-fire network, these Japanese soldiers were almost risking their lives.

    Until the main force of the Japanese army arrived here, the Japanese army did not conduct any more attacks here. They focused more on investigating these positions and obtaining relevant information inside, so as to facilitate the artillery units behind them.  When the battle begins, carry out precise bombardment of these positions.

    There are two reinforced companies stationed on the left position, and there are also two reinforced companies on the right position.

    They are considered a battalion, but due to temporary expansion after the battle began, the actual strength of the two positions now exceeds 600 people.

    Inside the position, they have a large number of defensive weapons, including anti-tank rocket launchers that can carry out devastating strikes against Japanese tanks and armored vehicles, and many flat-fire cannons.

    There are also a large number of large-caliber heavy machine guns, flamethrowers, and even rocket nests that can cover the Japanese charge formation with intensive firepower.

    The soldiers connected with the city through the passage below the position.

    If necessary, they will directly use explosives buried inside to blow up the passage.

    The commander of the 103rd Battalion stationed here, Bai Rihui, held a piece of withered grass in his mouth and looked at the Japanese soldiers in the distance.

    "You're such a bitch, you're so stubborn, why don't you beat me?"

    Bai Rihui was a little impatient.

    Their soldiers have long been ready for battle.

    As a result, the little devil Mo Ji on the opposite side has no intention of attacking them yet.

    This made him a little impatient. After all, Bai Rihui was always impatient, especially when waiting for the Japanese attack on the battlefield, which was doubly painful for him.

    "Don't worry, the little Japanese on the other side haven't started shelling yet. After their shelling is over, the Japanese infantry troops will charge towards us."

    The staff officer beside him said, looking at the setting sun not far away.

    At the same time, I cursed secretly in my heart, what a fool, you really know how to choose the time, and I won¡¯t be able to drink my afternoon tea.

    At this moment, a whistling sound suddenly came from a distance.

    Hearing this sound, Bai Rihui's eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "The little devils are bombarding you, take cover!!!"

    He shouted and ran happily into the air-raid shelter.

    When the other soldiers heard this, they all got into their cat-ear holes and waited for the Japanese shelling to end.

    Bai Rihui looked at the shells falling above his head, constantly making huge noises and shock waves.

    The excitement in his eyes became even stronger. For him, after waiting for so many days, he could no longer hold back.

    Now that the little devil on the opposite side was finally about to attack, he was extremely excited.

    Sending such a commander to guard the front position with his troops was also the result of careful consideration by their regimental commander.

    The Japanese armyThe attack was not just an attack on the defensive positions outside the south city wall, but also violent bombing on the outer positions of the city wall in several other directions.

    In fact, the large-caliber artillery of the Japanese army can only be used to deal with the fortifications of the Fourth Army on the periphery.

    As for the towns and city walls, they did not dare to bombard them because one of the falling shells might land on the home of their division commander, sending his wife and children to the west.

    The rumbling sound of Japanese artillery finally completely broke the silence that had lasted for several days outside Harbin.

    The soldiers in Harbin City felt as if a stone had fallen to the ground.

    For these soldiers who have been fighting with the Japanese army on the battlefield all year round, fighting with the Japanese army is actually a normal situation.

    A life that is too peaceful is not suitable for them.

    Now the Japanese artillery fire sounded again, and the smoke of gunpowder could once again be seen filling the entire sky. On the contrary, they felt very adaptable.

    It seems that this world should be like this. Only this world, for them, is the world that should be presented in the first place.

    Xia Yang was on the top of the city, watching the Japanese line in the distance, advancing little by little toward their position in front under the cover of shelling.

    These Japanese troops did not advance too fast, but they were covered by armored units and also had a large amount of artillery fire to provide them with fire support.

    "This time, the little devils launched attacks from multiple directions at the same time. On the one hand, they wanted to test our firepower. On the other hand, they wanted to show off their own momentum in the first battle."

    Qiu Guoping, who was watching the battle, said.

    Xia Yang sneered and said, "Yes, the little devils nowadays are actually more anxious than us.

    ¡°After all, we can hold on for a long time in this place, but the little devil across the way cannot.  If they wait too long, they will not be able to sustain fighting on two fronts.

    Especially after we occupied Harbin, we actually cut off their connection with the Japanese army in the north. If they want to mobilize troops to support their operations in Jinzhou City, they must get rid of us.  "(Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
