With the main force of the Sixth Brigade engaged in combat, the Japanese army quickly surpassed the 7th Division in terms of firepower. Facing the powerful artillery fire of the Japanese army, the artillery battalion of the 7th Division could only avoid devastating blows by frequently shifting positions!
But even so, only 7 of the 12 mounted guns were left at this time, and the remaining 5 were all destroyed by Japanese artillery!
Facing the powerful Japanese artillery fire, the defenders could only hold on. Since the Japanese infantry was just a few hundred meters away, Gao Hu did not dare to withdraw the defenders in case the Japanese suddenly rushed into the position.
However, what shocked Gao Hu was that the bombardment by the Japs lasted for nearly twenty minutes. A large number of defenses on the front-line positions were destroyed, and even many permanent firepower points were destroyed by the crazy Japanese shelling. Blow up.
At the same time as the shelling, a large number of Japanese infantry also began to line up, but did not attack immediately!
When the sound of mountain artillery stopped, the sound of mortars and infantry artillery sounded again from the Japanese army's position. At the same time, a large number of infantrymen rushed towards the defender's first-line position.
On the garrison position, Gao Hu saw through the telescope that the garrison in the trenches had suffered heavy losses. Only a few soldiers could get up and continue fighting when they heard the whistle. It was obvious that the others were already in danger.
You must know that he has deployed a full battalion of troops on the front line. According to the current casualty estimates, combined with the previous battle damage from this shelling, the battalion invested has probably been disabled.
"But Gao Hu couldn't care less about his heartache. The Japs had already come up. He could only order the First Company of the Second Battalion to immediately reinforce the front-line positions, and at the same time ordered the artillery and other troops to provide immediate fire cover.
With the sound of whistles in the front-line trenches, the defenders also began to fight back. Light and heavy machine guns and other weapons and equipment opened fire at the same time, causing huge casualties to the Japanese offensive troops.
"However, Isa Kazuo and others were still keenly aware that the firepower on the defender's position was much sparse, and they were secretly happy.
However, this happiness only lasted for a few minutes. We saw many reinforcements coming up and down on the garrison position. The vitality of the counterattack became strong and intensive again, and the Japanese troops on the front line were also beaten hard!
But at this moment, a "buzzing" sound came from the sky. The Japanese soldiers were overjoyed when they heard the sound, and many people cheered forgetfully!
No wonder these Japanese soldiers are so excited, because this is the sound of the engine of the plane, which also means that their aviation troops are coming for reinforcements!
During World War II, Japanese soldiers were very superstitious about three branches of the military. The first one to be photographed was the special smoke in the artillery, which was actually poison gas bombs, followed by the aviation troops, and finally the tank troops.
As long as these three arms are on the battlefield, no matter how low the morale of the Japanese army is, once these technical arms are deployed, these Japanese soldiers will be as energetic as chicken blood.
Today is no exception. When they heard the engine sound of the fighter plane, the little devils instantly burst out with great enthusiasm and fighting spirit!
And the Japanese aviation did not disappoint their infantry. Soon a dozen fighter planes emerged from the clouds and swooped towards the defenders' position!
But what the little devils didn't know was that at the same time as their fighter planes swooped down, in a position behind the battlefield, eight Type 75 anti-aircraft machine guns instantly opened the camouflage net and pointed their black muzzles at these Japanese fighter planes. .
Li Zihua, commander of the third battalion of the air defense battalion, looked at the swooping Japanese fighter planes with a resolute face, and immediately loudly ordered: "Everyone has the target Japanese fighter planes, shoot freely, open fire!"
Following Li Zihua¡¯s order, the eight anti-aircraft machine guns immediately locked onto their targets and then decisively pulled the triggers!
"Bang bang bang"
Regardless of the rate of fire or lethality, the Type 75 anti-aircraft machine gun was a fatal threat to the Japanese fighter planes with garbage performance. Two Japanese fighter planes were shot down in the first round of shooting, and this was even before the little devil's aviation Achievements achieved through preparation.
In fact, when this terrible "bang" sound sounded on the battlefield, the commander of the Japanese aviation force knew that he was in big trouble. The last battle of Bengbu was definitely a nightmare for their army aviation force. After a battle, they The Army Air Force actually lost more than 60 fighter planes, and more than 90 airmen were killed. This was the first time in the history of the Imperial Japanese Army's war!
However, today they heard the roar of that terrible weapon again on the battlefield. The commander of the Japanese aviation force immediately ordered the fighter planes to increase their flight altitude to avoid being shot down!
But the bombers of this era are different from those advanced fighters of later generations. Bombing depends entirely on luck. Once the altitude is too high, the bombs dropped by air willThere is no accuracy or certainty in this book!
Soon, the Japanese troops fighting on the front line were stunned. Aerial bombs fell on their heads from time to time, knocking the charging Japanese troops off their backs.
But Major General Akiyama Yoshitsune was also a ruthless man. He had realized that the terrible weapons and equipment behind the defenders posed a huge threat to the aviation force, and immediately ordered the artillery to destroy them at all costs!
??Then the Japanese artillery wing concentrated a large number of artillery and launched a blanket bombing against the positions of the 7th Air Defense Regiment of the Temporary 7th Division! Although the artillery of the 7th Division also responded in time, the Third Battalion of the Air Defense Regiment still suffered heavy losses, with only 4 of the 8 anti-aircraft machine guns remaining.
The blocking battle in Daishan Town lasted until eight o'clock in the evening. As the Japanese army conquered the front-line positions, the defenders withdrew into the town and continued to resist. It was not until Japanese troops were also found behind that Gao Hu ordered the troops to withdraw to Hechi Town behind.
At the same time that the blocking battle in Daishan Town started, the Japanese troops on the left and right were also blocked by the defenders. On the eastern front, the main Guandian and Xiaolinchang lines of the Japanese 13th Division were attacked by the main force of the 7th Division. check.
The defenders built a very strong fortification based on the mountain forest behind Guandian Town, which blocked the main force of the 13th Division at the front line of Guandian Town.
Although Tanaka Shizuichi has realized that the defenders want to use strong defenses to kill a large number of their effective forces, they can only hold on under the strict orders of the front army and forward command post, ordering the troops to continuously increase their offensive.
Unlike Daishan Town, where the terrain is relatively flat, the line leading to Guangming from Guandian Town is mountainous. Especially after passing Guandian Town, there are mountains of all sizes along the way, so the 13th Division is destined to go A smooth road!
On the western front, the Chongteng Detachment's attack went relatively smoothly. While the 13th Division and the 9th Division were busy fighting with the Seventh Division, the Chongteng Detachment easily captured Tianhe, Renhe and other places. Far.
However, the good luck of the Chongteng detachment ended here. Although they cleverly bypassed Sangjian Town, Dingyuan City was an obstacle that could not be bypassed. Li Guoyao placed more than 5,000 people here, waiting for Chongteng. The detachment is coming to your door!
The Chongteng detachment was also unambiguous. Even though it knew that the 7th Division had set up the Longmen Formation in Dingyuan, it still rushed over without stopping.
Less than two hours after the 9th Division captured Daishan Town, at around 10 o'clock in the night, the Chongteng detachment also arrived outside Dingyuan City!
However, given that it was too late and the troops had been marching all day, Major General Shigeto Chiaki did not directly order the troops to attack the city. Instead, he set up camp on the spot and waited until dawn tomorrow before attacking the city.
However, what Major General Shigeto Chiaki didn¡¯t know was that the Seventh Division had prepared a generous gift for them. There were bound to be endless surprises tonight! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
