Seeing this situation, not only Colonel Fuji who was watching the battle behind was stunned, but even Takatora on the defensive position was stunned!
He ordered people to lay out the minefield, which consumed more than a thousand real mines and two thousand booby traps. The scope of the minefield almost covered the fifty meters in front of the defenders' position.
Gao Hu originally planned to use this minefield to give the little Japanese a "surprise", but he did not expect that the Japanese commanders on the front line were such thieves and even wanted to test it with grenades during such a fierce battle.
This arrangement to test the defenders was immediately exposed, and the surprise was gone!
To be honest, it can be seen from the series of magical operations of this front-line commander of the Japanese army that he is definitely a master of tactics. In terms of tactical command level, Gao Hu feels that he cannot compare with him, but he does not know that this person is from the Japanese army. There is still another person in charge of the captain.
As for Colonel Fuji, after seeing the dense minefields at the front, he knew that the attack was probably going to fail. It was impossible for the more than 200 people left in Yamamoto's squadron to pass through the minefields and rush into the defense. military position.
In view of this, Colonel Fuji immediately ordered the chief of staff to send a signal to the Yamamoto brigade at the front, ordering them to retreat immediately!
After seeing the signal to retreat, Major Yamamoto was also quite desperate. At this time, the retreating captain could imagine that they had reached this point and could only move forward and not retreat.
The reason is simple. The distance between the two sides is so close. Once they turn around and retreat, they will hand over their backs to the defenders. The result is that not many of the more than 200 people will be able to withdraw.
Thinking of this, Yamamoto immediately took out his flare gun and fired three red flares into the air to indicate that he would continue the attack!
Then Yamamoto threw away the signal gun and ordered his troops to continue throwing grenades at the forward garrison positions. He would use the grenades to blow up a safe passage, and then lead the troops to rush to the garrison positions.
When Colonel Fuji saw Yamamoto's signal, he immediately understood it. He immediately ordered the artillery to cover them, and at the same time ordered his second brigade to immediately step forward for reinforcements.
With a large number of grenades clearing the way, the little Japanese charged forward again for more than 20 meters. Seeing that there was only more than 30 meters away from the defender's position, the soldiers on the defender's position could even see the little Japanese clearly. A ferocious look.
However, just when the Japanese soldiers thought they would be able to rush into the defenders' position in the next moment, a bullet suddenly shot from the fork and directly hit Major Yamamoto's head, instantly killing the Japanese captain's skull. Knocked off.
In fact, the moment Major Yamamoto took out his flare gun, his fate was already decided. It was not easy for the snipers on the defensive position to immediately recognize this Japs. More than one sniper had already targeted him, so it was reasonable for him to be sniped. middle.
As Major Yamamoto was killed by a sniper, the little Japanese on the front line were completely stunned. With less than a hundred people left, they suddenly lost all fighting spirit, and then hurriedly retreated behind with Major Yamamoto's body.
At this time, the Second Infantry Group of the Japanese Army had rushed to a distance of 400 meters in front of the defenders' position. Seeing the troops in front of them withdrawing in a hurry, everyone was stunned and didn't know what was happening in front of them. It¡¯s really a dilemma!
Besides, the Japanese soldiers who withdrew were targeted and locked by more than one rifle the moment they turned around. Almost in an instant, more than half of the hundreds of Japanese soldiers who were preparing to retreat were shot dead, and the rest were killed. He was also killed in a very short period of time.
At this point, except for the more than 200 wounded people who had been evacuated previously, the first brigade of the 35th Regiment, which had strong combat effectiveness, all the rest fell on the ground.
Seeing this situation, Colonel Fuji knew that it was useless for the second battalion to rush forward, so he immediately ordered them to withdraw!
In this attack, the Japanese army dispatched an infantry brigade that was not full of personnel. It took more than 40 minutes and even reached a distance of 30 meters in front of the defenders' position. However, the forward commander was sniped and blocked by minefields. , and ultimately fell short.
From the beginning of the war to the present, in less than an hour and a half, the Japanese 35th Regiment lost one-third of its troops, and even lost a major captain. This made Colonel Fuji angry and felt A moment of fright.
He couldn't help but think of what his old rival Isa Kazuo said during the meeting last night. The defenders in front of him were extraordinary, and a frontal attack might not have much effect. At first, I thought that the guy was scared out of his wits, but now it seems that he was too arrogant, and Isa Kazuo had learned his lesson in the previous battle.
Thinking that that guy might be standing behind to watch his joke, Captain Fuji felt a burning pain on his face!
However, at this point, neither Colonel Fuji nor the entire 35th Regiment had any way out, having lost the strength of an entire brigade. If the opposing garrison position could not be captured, he and the entire 35th Regiment would They will all become the laughing stock of the entire front army.
He absolutely does not want to see such a humiliation, so today he will take over the town in front of him no matter what, at all costs!
And he is not without capital. Although he has lost more than a thousand people, his regiment still has two infantry brigades, and there are more than 10,000 imperial army reserves behind him. He doesn't believe that he can't win. A small branch/that town.
After making the decision, Colonel Fuji immediately ordered the Second Battalion to prepare for the attack, and at the same time ordered the artillery to bombard the defenders' positions. The most important thing was that the artillery must blast a safe passage for the infantry to the defenders' positions.
After receiving the order from Colonel Fuji, the captain of the Japanese artillery regiment in the rear immediately ordered the troops to open fire immediately!
"Boom boom boom"
With the Japanese artillery bombardment, there was a rain of shells on the defender's position. The dense shells fell like raindrops, blasting holes in the defenses on the position.
Under the intensive artillery fire of the Japanese army, the remaining troops on the garrison position suffered an immediate disaster. The simple anti-gun holes did not have much problem against ordinary infantry artillery and mortars. They were also barely able to deal with mountain artillery, but in terms of power, The huge field artillery was a bit overwhelming.
Often when two field artillery shells fall, the artillery-proof cavern will be blown up, and the artillery-proof cavern is built relatively deep. Once it collapses, it will be troublesome. The soldiers inside are likely to be buried alive, and they will be suffocated to death on the battlefield. There were so many soldiers that some entire platoons and entire companies were buried alive.
Fortunately, after the Japanese army shelled the front line position for more than ten minutes, the artillery fire began to shrink toward the front. I saw that an area of ??30 meters wide and 50 meters long in front of the defenders' position was blasted with artillery shells by the Japanese army. Every time Not an inch of land was spared.
With the shelling of the Japanese army, a large number of landmines laid by the defenders in the forward positions were detonated. For a time, explosions were heard continuously in front of the defenders' positions, which was deafening. The heart-stopping explosions could be felt even from a long distance away.
