    Chapter 156: Enemies meet on a narrow road (new book, please watch)

    Yanshan. Independent Brigade Forward Headquarters. First Regiment Command Post.

    "Reporting to the regiment, the first round of the Japs' attack was repelled by us, but the idiots are gathering at the front of our army again, and it seems that they are going to launch a second round of attacks!"

    "What are the casualties of the frontline troops?"

    "There are no statistics on casualties, but the Japanese shelling just now caused a lot of casualties to the first battalion. It is conservatively estimated that the casualties just now are about 200!"

    Hearing that their regiment had suffered more than 200 casualties in less than ten minutes of attack, Zhang Tengjiao fell silent.

    This fucking thing has just begun, and the little Japs just didn't try their best. The other side was just a tentative attack. There were less than 50 Japs corpses left on the position. Unexpectedly, they caused more than 200 casualties.  It will take at least a day and a half to two days to get down. I don't know how many of them will be left in the group by then.

    But silence is silence, Zhang Tengjiao still knows the current situation, they have no other choice but to fight with their lives!

    "Well, have you figured out the serial number of the little Japanese at the front? Is it the regiment of that division of the Japanese army?" Zhang Tengjiao asked calmly.

    "The reporting team has been investigated clearly. It is the 47th Regiment of the Japanese Sixth Division, and the commander is named Takeda Shinichi!"

    "The 47th Regiment? Haha, isn't this our old rival? We are really on the wrong side of the road!"

    "That's not the case. It was this regiment that defeated our 67th Army in Songjiang City. They also fought against us outside Nanjing City before, but we didn't expect to encounter us again this time!"

    "Hmph, since I can't escape, I have no choice but to fight to the death. Give me the order and give me a hard beating later! Also tell the first battalion commander to take strict precautions against Japanese shelling and distribute gas masks to everyone immediately.  .¡±

    Zhang Tengjiao, who was born in the Northeastern Army, fought against the Japanese army several times, especially during the battle in Rehe, where he saw the power of the Japanese gas bombs. Therefore, after entering Nanjing City, they purposely collected a large number of gas masks and biochemical suits in order to  Just in case!

    "yes"

    ?¡­

    Speaking of which, opposite the defenders, Captain Shinichi Takeda of the 47th Regiment of the Japanese Army was observing the defenders' position opposite with a telescope. When he saw the flag of the Independence Brigade, his brows could not help but frown!

    "Check it immediately. Which division does the army on the opposite side belong to? Who is the commander?" Takeda Shinichi said in a deep voice.

    "Hai!"

    As the vanguard of the Sixth Division, the 47th Division was the first to catch up to Yanshan. Because he was busy trying to annihilate the Chinese defenders in front of him, Takeda Shinichi did not put down the seemingly extremely crude defense line in front of him at all.  In his eyes, so he sent an infantry squadron up as soon as he came up, trying to capture the garrison position in front in one fell swoop.

    As a result, what Takeda Shinichi did not expect was that the firepower of the defenders on the opposite side exceeded his estimate.

    He originally thought that after fighting for so many days, the structure of the Chinese army should have been in chaos, and the weapons and equipment had also suffered a lot. The troops left behind like this should be abandoned and could not have many heavy weapons.

    However, when the defenders counterattacked just now, there were more than a dozen light and heavy machine guns on the front line alone, forming a line of crossfire on the not-wide defense line. In less than ten minutes, the first round of the imperial army's attack was repulsed.  , losing about a squad of troops.

    Although the casualties were still within a controllable range, Takeda Shinichi realized that the defenders on the opposite side were not the abandoned soldiers he imagined, but should belong to the elite of the Chinese army. This can be seen from the opponent's firepower arrangement.  two.

    Soon the chief of staff, Major Yamazaki, took this message back to Takeda Shinichi, and then said loudly: "Reporting to the commander: According to the reply from the Special High School, the army on the opposite side belongs to the 67th Army and is a two-regiment system.  Type B brigade, with a strength of about 3,500 to 5,000 men, the commander"

    "What's wrong, Commander? Don't hesitate!"

    "Hai! The commander of the garrison opposite is called Li Guoyao!"

    "Nani? Is this the Li Guoyao who took away our 47th Regiment Headquarters and killed Chief of Staff Tanabe and His Royal Highness the Prince?" Takeda Shinichi asked in surprise.

    "Hai, if the intelligence department is not mistaken, he should be the daring guy!" Major Yamazaki nodded.

    "Yo Xi! It's him, no wonder!"

    Speaking of this, Takeda Shinichi¡¯s face showed a hint of excitement!

    To be honest, he is still worried about this Li Guoyao.??With a hint of gratitude!

    That¡¯s right, just grateful!

    The reason is very simple. Without Li Guoyao's desperate counterattack, it would not have been possible to kill Colonel Hasegawa Masanori of the 47th Regiment. Then Takeda Shinichi would not have had the opportunity to serve as an important position as captain of the front-line troops. Even if  It is possible but impossible to serve as the captain of an elite unit like the Sixth Division.

    They are also co-captains, but there are certain differences between the co-captains of the Sixth Division, the Second Division, and the Fifth Division and the co-captains of other divisions. After all, there are more opportunities to make meritorious services in these elite units, and they are also more popular.  With the attention of the base camp, there are more opportunities for promotion.

    Of course, for Shinichi Takeda now, he hopes to defeat the defenders in front and capture Li Guoyao alive!

    Thinking of this, Takeda Shinichi looked around at the three captains around him, and then said with a cold face: "Gentlemen, you should have heard what I just said. The commander of the garrison opposite us turned out to be the one who was killed.  Your Highness the Prince¡¯s murderer, do you know what this means?¡±

    Without waiting for everyone to answer, Takeda Shinichi said with a hint of excitement on his face: "This means that our opportunity to perform meritorious deeds has come. The base camp and His Majesty the Emperor have sent telegrams to the frontline troops, strictly ordering the frontline troops to find the daring man at all costs.  Destroy the officer and his troops! But we didn¡¯t expect that they would be encountered by our 47th Regiment. As long as we eliminate the army in front and capture their commander alive, we will avenge His Highness the Prince.  If you take revenge, your promotion will be no more than a matter of words!"

    "Youxi, sir, you are right, this is a good opportunity for us to make a contribution!" Major Yamazaki also said excitedly.

    "Sir, our First Battalion is requesting to fight!" Major Sato, the captain of the First Battalion, responded quickly and directly called for battle!

    "Sir, our second brigade suffered relatively small losses in previous battles, and we are willing to serve as the main attack!"

    "Sir, our third battalion has requested to go to war. We will definitely annihilate the army on the opposite side!"

    Seeing that several of his captains took the initiative to fight, Takeda Shinto was very satisfied. Although they had suffered a lot of losses in the past few days, the morale of the troops was not greatly affected. The 47th Regiment was indeed the elite of the Imperial Army.  .

    "Yoshi, order Sasaki's Second Battalion to serve as the main front-line attack. Sato's Battalion attacks the enemy forces on the left and right wings. At the same time, order the Sixth Artillery Battalion to provide artillery support!" Takeda Shinichi issued the order to attack.

    "Hai!"

    Following Takeda Shinichi¡¯s order, the Japanese troops who had just been repelled on the front line gathered again and immediately launched an all-round attack on the defending positions!

    "Boom boom boom"

    As usual, the Japanese army launched an artillery attack first. A dozen mountain guns and several Type 92 infantry guns in the hands of the front-line infantry began to bombard the defenders of the Yanshan position. The shells fell like hail, and the defenders' position suddenly became a sea of ??fire.

    Fortunately, the garrison position was designed by Li Guoyao himself. In addition to a few trenches, there were also a large number of artillery-proof holes. During the Japanese bombardment, except for a dozen observation posts, all the other soldiers on the position hid in the artillery-proof holes.

    Therefore, although the bombardment lasted for more than ten minutes, the damage caused to the defenders was minimal. Except for a few observation posts that were directly hit by Japanese artillery shells and caused a small number of casualties, the rest were fine.  He was shocked by the huge explosion, but it did not affect his combat effectiveness!

    After the artillery bombardment, a large number of Japanese infantry launched a charge towards the garrison position in the form of skirmishers!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
