    Gao Hu and others who were watching the battle behind the garrison position had solemn expressions on their faces. They had already noticed the Jaap's intention. The other party planned to use artillery to destroy the minefield in front, or at the worst, they would have to blow up a safe passage out.

    Once the little devil removes the threat from the minefield, the opponent's attack will begin!

    Sure enough, after plowing the forward positions, the Japanese attack began again!

    The person responsible for the attack this time was the Second Infantry Battalion of the Japanese 35th Regiment. The captain was named Shinshiro Takeda, a war madman who came from a run-down samurai family.

    Unlike Tsuna Yamamoto, who was just shot dead, Shinshiro Takeda was born in a 2800-year-old major. He not only studied at Tokyo Rishi since he was a child, but also studied at Army University, and he just graduated not long ago.

    It is very necessary to mention the two Japanese military schools, Lushi and Luda. These two schools can be said to be the cradle of Japanese military officers.

    The Japanese Army Sergeant School, formerly known as the Kyoto Military School, focuses on the all-round development of students in terms of military technology, and carries out ideological education on militarism. It has trained a large number of senior generals for Japan's war of aggression.  Almost all the army officers in the war of aggression, whether generals or second lieutenants, had studied here, and 6 of them had served as cabinet prime ministers.

    After Japan surrendered in 1945, the Army Noncommissioned Officer School was abolished. Before the cancellation, a total of 61 classes were held and 36,900 officers were trained.

    There are many talented people in the Army Military Academy. Among them, those who were promoted to marshal include Juichi Terauchi, Moto Sugiyama, Shunhe Hata, etc., and those who have the rank of general include Abe Nobuyuki, Masaki Jinzaburo, Honjo Shige, Matsui Iwane, Araki Sadao, Hayashi Senyuki, Koiso  Guozhao et al.  There are even more lieutenant generals, including Sakabe Jusunho, Ninomiya Harishige, Kashii Kohei, Qin Zhenji, Yanagawa Heisuke, Tatada Kanayasu, Inagaki Kaoshita and others.

    Even many important figures in the Chinese military and political circles have studied in this school, such as: Cai E, Jiang Baili, Zhang Xiaohuai, Xu Chongzhi, Sun Chuanfang, Yan Xishan, Yin Changheng, Liu Yuqi, Jiang Zuobin, He Yingqin, Tang Enbo, Zhu Shaoliang, Cheng Qian, etc.  .

    The Army University is an advanced version of the Army Corps. It is a place to train middle- and senior-level officers of the Japanese army. Like the Army Corps, it pays great attention to instilling in students the feudal loyalty of "loyalty to the emperor" and the military state that is willing to go to great lengths for the "Empire of Japan".  They use very cruel methods to cultivate students' Bushido spirit.

    During the 64 years of its existence, Continental University had a total of 3,485 graduates. Most of the graduates were the backbone of Japan¡¯s modern army, and a large number of them were identified as war criminals after the war.

    There are a lot of officers like Takeda Shinshiro who are both military graduates and have furthered their studies in mainland China in the Japanese army, but almost everyone has a very bright future. Basically, as long as they don't die young on the battlefield, it won't take long.  Someone who can be promoted to the rank of Captain of the Colonel-General in just a year.

    This is mainly because there is a rigid requirement for applying to mainland China, that is, you must be a lieutenant or captain officer who has graduated from the "Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School" and has more than two years of experience in the army, and is under 30 years old.

    ??And students from mainland universities are promoted to lieutenants as soon as they graduate. The vast majority of them will be promoted to lieutenants after a period of experience in the army after graduation, and a large number of people will join the ranks of generals.

    Although Takeda Mashiro is young, in terms of future, he is really beyond the reach of a weak-legged person like Yamamoto Tsuna!

    Under the cover of artillery, Takeda Mashir¨­ immediately commanded a reinforced brigade under his command to launch an attack on the garrison position. In order not to repeat the same mistakes as his younger brother, Takeda Major ordered his soldiers to form a skirmish line.  He stopped advancing two hundred meters away from the defenders' position, then lay down and exchanged fire with the defenders in the trenches.

    Takeda Shinshiro¡¯s tactics are to maximize strengths and avoid weaknesses. As we all know, the Japanese soldiers are famous for their superb shooting skills. There are many more special shooters than sharpshooters in the national army.

    With the Japanese attack, the defenders suddenly suffered a large number of casualties. Fortunately, the defenders were equipped with more automatic firepower than the Japanese army. In this era, more or less automatic firepower was basically the standard for measuring the strength of firepower.

    Under the suppression of a large amount of automatic firepower, the offensive of the Takeda Brigade was abruptly blocked.

    But Major Takeda didn¡¯t seem to be in a hurry. They calmly piled up the bodies of the dead on the forward position as bunkers, and then used these "bunkers" to shoot at the defenders.

    In just half an hour, the defenders on the forward position were unable to hold on any longer. The Japs' shooting was accurate and ruthless, and their infantry support firepower was also very powerful. In addition to the light and heavy machine guns placed inside the bunkers,  , as long as it is at the firepower point outside, it will basically notIf it takes more than ten minutes, it will be knocked down by its artillery.

    In just half an hour, the defenders on the front line suffered as many as four to five hundred casualties in the exchange of fire with the Japanese troops, while the Japs suffered less than two hundred casualties, almost half of the opponent's.

    Through the telescope, Colonel Fuji saw reinforcements coming up on the garrison position, and then a large number of wounded and corpses were carried down. This made him very satisfied with the Takeda Brigade on the forward position.

    Although this tactic is a bit time-consuming, the actual results are very good. If this continues, it may not take long for the defenders to collapse due to huge casualties.

    In fact, Gao Hu really couldn't hold his breath anymore. The little devil's shooting skills were really too strong. Many people could reach the level of blind shooting at a distance of two hundred meters, and the accuracy rate was almost over 70%. The troops under his command  Basically, as soon as you show your head, you can get a headshot.

    In comparison, the shooting level of the defenders was somewhat unsatisfactory. The shooting level of the vast majority of the soldiers was not even second-rate. They were incomparable with the Japanese army. If it were not for the protection of trenches and bunkers, they might have been killed long ago.  The Japanese army was defeated.

    In view of this, Gao Hu immediately mobilized artillery to bombard the Japanese troops on the front line and increase the density of firepower against the little Japanese.

    With the increasing power of the defenders' artillery, the casualties of the Japs have also increased!

    However, the shortcomings of the weak strength of the defenders' artillery were soon exposed. After the defenders' artillery fired, the Japanese artillery immediately launched retaliatory bombardments. Although the defenders' artillery repeatedly moved their positions in time, it would be difficult to walk too much at night.  Not every time you encounter a ghost, you are lucky enough to escape.

    The result that could not be avoided was that the only artillery battalion of the defenders was destroyed by the Japanese army. The losses were extremely heavy, and only three of the 12 cannons were left.

    However, the purpose of the Japs was to occupy the defenders' positions, so they could not lie down in the forward positions all the time. After seeing that the firepower on the defenders' positions had weakened a lot, Major Takeda immediately ordered the troops to cover each other and then crawl forward.

    Soon the remaining seven or eight hundred people of the Takeda Brigade entered a distance of more than 100 meters in front of the defenders' position. Looking at the defenders' position so close, Major Takeda showed a crazy look in his eyes.

    "Order: Everyone, charge towards the support/person's position!"

    Since the distance between the two sides is really too close, even new recruits can easily hit the defenders at such a close distance. Therefore, when they reach this distance, they can only charge hard.

    Fortunately, the distance is only about a hundred meters. If you go faster, you can rush up in a minute or two!

    Gao Hu also discovered the intention of the little devils, and immediately ordered the first and second companies of the third battalion to immediately go up for reinforcements. These little devils must be stopped, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

    At this time, the Japanese army had rushed to a distance of 70 or 80 meters in front of the defenders' position, and further ahead was a minefield.

    However, since the minefield had been destroyed by Japanese artillery, the Japs almost drove straight in without any impact.

    But just as the Takeda Battalion was about to rush into the defenders' first-line trenches, reinforcements from the defenders' positions arrived.

    After the reinforcements came up, a series of light and heavy machine guns were set up, and then they opened fire quickly. The dense bullets instantly suppressed the little devil and made him unable to raise his head, and the casualties increased sharply.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
