Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    When Katsumasa Otomo saw this, he knew that their troops on the flanks must have exposed their whereabouts in advance, otherwise the enemy on the opposite side would not launch such a precise assault.

    However, there is no use talking about these things now. Their troops attacking from the side have been exposed to the enemy on the opposite side. It is already impossible to resist the armored troops attacking from the front.

    "Deploy troops from the frontal defensive position to resist the enemy's attack. Our troops on the third line of defense will soon be able to support us."

    Otomo Katsumasa has no better way now.

    For now, the best result is that they can delay the opponent's advance in the rear, and then their support troops arrive here to form a front and rear pincer attack.

    But this seems unlikely. Since the enemy's troops on the opposite side can attack their artillery positions, it means that the number of enemies attacking them on the opposite side is definitely large, and they have enough troops to block their reinforcements in the rear.

    The reinforcements from the Songyuan area are still one night away from here, and it is impossible to support them now.

    And they concentrated their main forces on the second line of defense.

    Their strength in the third line of defense is actually very limited. Except for those troops that need to be stationed on the position, the strength of the third line of defense that they can actually mobilize is not even the strength of a regiment.

    It is obviously unrealistic to expect such a regiment to carry out a devastating blow to the enemy's crossing troops.

    When he thought of this, Otomo Katsumasa felt depressed.

    He is actually inclined to retreat now, but his request to retreat has been refuted by Guderian.

    How could Guderian let him retreat? If they retreat, then the enemy on the opposite side can drive straight in and directly reach the foot of Songyuan City.

    The current Japanese army in Songyuan City has the strength of a division at full strength, and there is no danger to defend it.

    It is probably unrealistic to stop this group of wolf-like enemies.

    Unless the enemies on the opposite side give up attacking the Songyuan area.

    But Otomo Katsumasa has already made up his mind. If the enemy on the opposite side breaks through their line of defense in the rear, he will immediately retreat with the remaining troops and enter the third line of defense.

    If they are lucky, they can be on the third line of defense, waiting for reinforcements from the Songyuan area.

    These reinforcements have the strength of a division, plus the troops they can enter the third line of defense, there are nearly 20,000 troops.

    If you think about it this way, they might be able to use this line of defense to resist the enemy on the opposite side for a while.

    Thinking about this clearly, Otomo Katsumasa's thinking is much clearer.

    At this time, the Fourth Army troops that were attacking frontally would not stop for a moment because of his thinking at this time.

    The Fourth Army¡¯s advance in the rear remains extremely determined, not giving any chance to the enemy on the opposite side.

    Those Japanese troops who were resisting from the front originally wanted to rely on their frontal defense line to withstand enemy attacks from the opposite side.

    But the impact of the Fourth Army far exceeded their imagination. Armored vehicles and tanks, in the eyes of the Japanese army at this time, were indestructible steel behemoths.

    A large number of tanks and armored vehicles were protected by their infantry units, while also protecting their infantry units and destroying the Japanese defense lines.

    The corpses of the Japanese soldiers were crushed by the tracks and wheels of the tanks and armored vehicles of the Fourth Army, turning into meat paste and blending into the soil under their feet.

    A large number of Japanese soldiers, under the attack at this moment, had no chance to resist at all, and they were turned into corpses by the dense jet of bullets.

    There are still Japanese soldiers who want to use those trenches to carry out suicide bomb attacks, but they obviously underestimated the capabilities of the Fourth Army.

    At this moment, the Japanese soldiers did not expect that they would encounter such a fierce attack at this time.

    In just half an hour, their defense line at the back could no longer withstand the attack of the armored troops of the Fourth Army.

    The Japanese troops who rushed to support arrangedBasically, it is no different from dying. Under the fierce attack of the Fourth Army, they will soon be beaten into sieves by bullets like the previous Japanese soldiers, or crushed into meat paste by the tracks of tanks.

    The infantrymen of the Fourth Army, in the darkness, were like a group of death-seeking gods. The rifles and machine guns in their hands had now become the death-scythes that harvested the lives of the Japanese troops.

    The remaining Japanese soldiers were still resisting desperately at the beginning, but as their casualties increased, their last bit of will to resist was crushed by the rumbling tank tracks.

    Otomo's defense line collapsed in the rear, and even the frontal troops collapsed bit by bit under the fierce attack of the Fourth Army's crossing troops.

    "Order the troops to alternate cover, retreat from the side, enter the third line of defense, and wait for the arrival of reinforcements."

    Otomo Katsumasa said, looking firmly ahead.

    At this time, the river-crossing troops of the Fourth Army had rushed to the Japanese defensive position in front and started a hand-to-hand battle with the Japanese troops stationed there.

    The soldiers of the Fourth Army who rushed up later also roared, holding their bayonets high, and charged towards the Japanese army.

    Soldiers from both sides fought together in the trenches. The Fourth Army troops in the rear took advantage of the weakened firepower of the Japanese troops in front to seize the time to cross the river and continue to attack the Japanese defensive positions in the front.

    The Japanese soldiers on the front were already unable to hold on any longer.

    This time z.co*m Zhang Si.  Their troops originally stationed on the front have been deployed too much to support the defense line in the rear.

    But in the end, the result was that both lines of defense collapsed.

    The more than 10,000 soldiers of the Fourth Army attacking from the rear showed super combat effectiveness.

    They used armored vehicles and tanks, as well as armed trucks as fire support vehicles, to repeatedly ravage and break through the Japanese rear defense positions.

    Now the second line of defense stationed by Japanese soldiers has in fact been destroyed.
