On September 27, the Matsuura Division's offensive in Wanjialing had just been contained, but the fiercest offensive and defensive battle on the Hongtuling battlefield on the northern front had just begun.
At seven o'clock in the morning, the Japanese army began to get busy on the battlefield. At first, the Japanese soldiers lit the stove fire and buried the pots to make rice. Then a large number of Japanese soldiers were gathered.
"The actions of the little devil could not be hidden from the defenders at all. They were condescending and quickly discovered the little devil's movements. Lu Zhanwu and others on the front line unanimously believed that the little devil was going to fight for his life.
Because this has become the routine of the little devils, if the battle is not very fierce, they will often attack after eight or nine o'clock, and eat later, because they need to recharge their batteries.
Only when the battle is the most intense and tense, they will cook and eat early in the morning, and this meal will often be rich.
Now that the little devil is eating so early, he must be ready to fight hard.
Without hesitation, Lu Zhanwu reported the situation to the military headquarters, ordered the front-line troops to strengthen their alert, and transferred the other two fully-manned infantry regiments of the 7th Division to the vicinity of the front-line battlefield, ready to reinforce the front-line positions at any time.
Compared with the Japanese army, the conditions of the defenders were much worse. Seeing that the Japs were about to attack, Lu Zhanwu could only let the soldiers eat a few mouthfuls of dry food in a hurry, but did not bury a pot to make rice.
The troops have been seriously short of food in the past few days, and the terrain of Hongtu Ridge is steep, making it difficult to deliver even cooked meals. Therefore, Li Guoyao simply ordered the logistics departments of each regiment to organize troops to prepare dry food in the rear and then deliver it to the front line.
Dry food is the most common white flour pancake in the north. It tastes good when it is hot, but once it cools down it becomes as hard as a rock, making it difficult to bite. Those with bad teeth can only swallow it by soaking it in water.
The conditions are a bit more difficult, but the soldiers have no complaints. On the one hand, this is because the 61st Army emphasizes equality between officers and soldiers. In terms of food, both officers and soldiers are the same, and no one is special.
On the other hand, everyone knows that it is a war now, and the food of their 61st Army is already very good. After all, the military headquarters will prepare a piece of braised pork for each soldier every three or five, which is the meat of the horses killed on the battlefield.
"Looking at other troops, there is no comparison. Many troops eat gruel, two meals a day, and their legs will become weak after drinking it.
There is no way, this battle has been going on for twenty days, and the food of all the troops is relatively tight, even the troops like Li Guoyao's army that captured Jiujiang City are like this, let alone other troops.
After a simple breakfast, the little devils immediately spread out their formation and began to assemble towards the front-line battlefield.
Through the telescope, Lu Zhanwu saw that the little Japs at the foot of the mountain were divided into four formations. Each formation had seven or eight hundred people. It could be seen that there should be an infantry regiment below.
Behind the Japanese troops were several officers, led by a colonel. The colonel pointed at the defenders' position with his command knife, and then saw a group of little Japs rushing towards the defenders' position.
At the same time, a dull sound of shelling came from the artillery position behind the Japanese army, and the Japanese attack began!
"Boom boom boom"
The Japanese army's artillery is very powerful. The dense artillery shells fall from the sky, instantly turning the front line into mud!
If it were the past, Lu Zhanwu would definitely have asked the troops in the trenches to withdraw and wait for the kid's bombardment to pass before entering the position.
But now the little devil has discovered this habit of the defenders, so he did it deliberately several times, charging quickly while the defenders were retreating, and almost rushed into the trenches several times, so to be on the safe side, Lu Zhanwu could only order the troops Stay in the trenches.
However, in order to support the front-line positions, Lu Zhanwu immediately called the military headquarters and requested artillery support.
Li Guoyao naturally had no problem with this, and immediately ordered the artillery regiment to counterattack immediately. Although it could not defeat the Little Japanese Artillery Regiment, it could still deal with the Japanese offensive troops on the front line battlefield.
With the counterattack of the artillery of the 61st Army, the charging troops of the Little Japanese were quickly turned upside down by the violent artillery fire, causing numerous casualties.
But neither ordinary Japanese soldiers nor officers seemed to care. After the shelling, they patted the dirt on their bodies and continued to move forward, not even caring about the injured soldiers around them.
Judging from this point, the little devil really did the blood -hearted heart, and its combat effectiveness was not unreasonable.
The shelling was just the beginning, and the real battle had not yet begun because the soldiers on both sides had not yet entered the effective range of the rifles.
But as the distance between the two sides increases,The battle kept getting closer and closer, and the battle became more and more intense.
Especially when the distance between the two sides was only more than 200 meters, light and heavy machine guns, grenades, and mortars began to show their power, and the battlefield was no longer the monotonous sound of shelling.
"Da da da"
"Boom boom boom"
"Bang bang bang"
The two sides were firing at full strength, and they were constantly shooting at each other from a distance of more than 200 meters. During the shooting process, the distance between the two sides was also constantly shrinking.
Especially when the distance between the two sides was less than a hundred meters, the ferocious expressions on the faces of the soldiers on both sides were clearly visible, and everyone became crazy!
On the garrison position, Lu Zhanwu was in a serious mood. At this time, the more than a thousand people on the front line were already the last strength of their Du8 Brigade. Although the military commander promised to replenish them no matter how much they lost after the war, Lu Zhanwu knew that the replacement troops were incomparable to these veterans.
But at this point, he has no choice. The war has been going on so far, and there is no other way except to fight.
Putting down the telescope in his hand, Lu Zhanwu said in a deep voice: "Send a signal to the positions on the left and right so that they can open fire!"
"yes!"
Following Lu Zhanwu¡¯s order, a red signal bomb flew straight into the sky, leaving a light red trace.
Immediately afterwards, on the hillsides on the left and right sides of the front-line position, dozens of light and heavy machine guns opened fire at the same time, attacking the swarming Japs on the frontal battlefield.
The powerful firepower instantly contained the Little Jaap's offensive. Under the joint attack from the left and right sides, the Little Jaap suffered heavy losses. After persisting for more than ten minutes, the Little Jaap's first attack was repulsed.
However, in less than twenty minutes, the little devil organized his formation again and continued to attack.
This time the little devils not only dispatched a small number of tank troops, but also fired a large number of poison gas bombs towards the defenders' positions.
However, Li Guoyao has already figured out these three tricks of the little devil. Once the conventional tactics cannot work, he will use these dirty methods.
Because of this, when conditions permit, Li Guoyao often prepares some gas masks in the front-line trenches. Once something is wrong, the soldiers immediately put on the gas masks.
Don¡¯t be afraid if you don¡¯t have a gas mask. Each soldier usually prepares a towel. If something is wrong, he will wet the towel immediately and cover his mouth and nose. As long as it is not that kind of special poison gas, ordinary poison gas bombs will not do much harm to soldiers protected by wet towels.
Because of these protective measures, the second attack of the Japs was repelled again, leaving a large number of Japs corpses in front of the position!
"But the little devil received a death order today. Although the losses were not small, he still did not stop the attack. Soon he organized his troops again and launched a third attack.
