The Japanese soldiers on the front did not expect that the enemy attack on the opposite side would start the battle so quickly.
Their original troops had been killed and injured a lot during the fierce bombing just now.
At this time, the defensive force they can organize on the front is less than half of the original.
Now the Japanese troops have to use the forces at hand to block the enemy on the opposite side.
Troops of the Fourth Army, soldiers at the front used rafts as a tool for them to cross the river.
On the raft, machine gun firepower is deployed, which can suppress the Japanese positions on the front for a long time.
The soldiers at the back held up their bulletproof plates and tried their best to avoid the frontal firepower of the Japanese army.
Although the Japanese troops in frontal defense did not have as many defensive troops as before, they did not give up the position they were stationed at.
These Japanese soldiers used their light and heavy machine guns and mortars, level fire cannons, etc. to block the troops of the Fourth Army crossing the river. 强牺 baolaixsw.com 读牺
It¡¯s just the smoke surrounding them that caused them a lot of trouble.
As long as they are in the front, they can see the troops of the Fourth Army on the river opposite.
These Japanese soldiers used their only sight lines to shoot at the Fourth Army troops crossing the river head-on. This time ba ol a ixs w.com Zhang Si
"Da da da!!!"
The machine guns of both sides were firing at each other, causing casualties on both sides.
"It's just that the soldiers of the Fourth Army are still suffering considerable casualties on the river, even if they are protected by bulletproof plates.
At this time, the Fourth Army's mortar position on the front began to roar, and a large number of mortar shells were fired directly into the Japanese position opposite.
Those Japanese soldiers also suffered a lot of casualties amid the fierce bombing of the artillery shells.
But they did not give up their position and still held on to that place.
The soldiers on both sides formed a stalemate on the front.
Finally, the rafts used by the Fourth Army to cross the river began to reach the other side.
But at this time, they were not really safe.
In other words, the battle waiting for them has just begun.
After these soldiers of the Fourth Army arrived at the river bank, the first thing they did was to lift up their rafts and stack them as their bunkers.
The soldiers hid behind these rafts and charged against the Japanese positions in front.
The soldiers of the Fourth Army who followed also began to move forward on rafts at this time.
At the same time, the Japanese troops on the front began to use more intense artillery fire to bomb the river-crossing troops of the Fourth Army.
Their mortars and flat-fire cannons on the position were all roaring.
Although there are not that many weapons left by the Japanese army, with their near-natural military barrier on the river in front, their blocking effect on the front is actually very good.
As for the Fourth Army, there is no armored force to provide them with frontal protection, and the river that lies in front of them cannot be crossed directly by their armored vehicles and tanks.
This led to their frontal attack, which was more about attracting the Japanese troops on the opposite side, rather than really being able to achieve a particularly big breakthrough on the front.
Fortunately, they don¡¯t need this now.
Because of their attack this time, the most threatening thing was not the troops crossing the river on the front, but the troops that detoured to the rear of the Japanese army.
They are the backbone of the Japanese army's second line of defense.
Now these Japanese soldiers are facing a large number of armored troops of the Fourth Army suddenly rushing out from the rear. They have no psychological preparation at all, let alone any tactical preparation.
After all, they had built a large number of bunkers on the position, as well as a large amount of anti-tank equipment, all located on the front. The sudden appearance of armored troops in the rear completely disrupted this arrangement of the Japanese army.
Their defensive position in the rear had been completely breached in less than half an hour.
After the troops of the Fourth Army broke into the Japanese positions, they did not lose their organization and discipline.
On the contrary, they have great potential in subsequent attacks and advancements.??'s rules and regulations.
The advancement of each combat unit is coordinated seamlessly, which will not allow them to go deep alone when attacking, nor will their troops be attacked from the side by the Japanese after entering the Japanese position.
As for their infantry-tank coordination and other tactics, it goes without saying.
These are the things they are best at. For these soldiers of the Fourth Army, ordinary training is put to use at this time.
The infantry used the cover of tanks and armored vehicles to inch closer to the Japanese defensive position on the opposite side.
As for tanks and armored vehicles, they can protect their infantry units from flying bullets at the beginning of the charge, but after entering the Japanese defensive positions, these big guys began to become the targets of infantry unit protection.
After all, many of the Japanese soldiers would choose to hide in the trenches at this time, waiting for the tanks and armored vehicles of the Fourth Army to crush them over the trenches, and then suddenly jump out to carry out suicide attacks on these tanks and armored vehicles. attack.
Such tactics, in the face of the flexible and skilled no-tank coordination tactics of the Fourth Army, actually cannot play a big role at all. It just makes the troops of the Fourth Army suffer a little hindrance when attacking.
As the division commander of the Japanese 78th Division, Otomo Katsumasa is currently observing the enemy's situation through his telescope.
"The enemy's troops have broken through our defense line in the rear and are currently breaking into our headquarters at high speed."
At this time, a Japanese soldier came over to report.
Hearing these words, Otomo Katsumasa who was on the side was stunned for a moment, and then realized how terrifying the enemy's advancing speed was.
"How long has it been before the enemy on the opposite side has already broken through the defensive position we built behind us?" Zhida z.com Zhixiao
Otomo Katsumasa felt incredible.
"That's right, one of our regiments stationed in the rear was unable to withstand the enemy's attack from the opposite side. By the time their intelligence came back, we didn't even have time to send reinforcements. The enemy had already broken through their defensive positions. ¡±
As soon as he finished speaking, a burst of dense gunfire came from the direction of the rear position
