    Not far away from the Japanese position, Tanaka Shizuichi was observing the defenders' position through a telescope.

    He had watched the entire attack just now. To be honest, there was nothing wrong with Kawai United's tactics. If he had to find some fault with it, it would be that Colonel Kawai was not decisive enough when he withdrew in the end, and was eventually defeated by the enemy.  The army bit its tail and killed many people.

    But overall, there were no major flaws in the Kawaii Regiment's formation or firepower allocation. However, the result was that it was defeated by the defenders and retreated. All three brigades suffered heavy casualties.

    Hearing the earth-shattering roar of the defenders, Tanaka Jingyi was horrified. What kind of army was the enemy on the opposite side? They had been fighting for more than four hours. Why did they still have such strong energy and majestic momentum?  Even the Empire's most powerful Fifth Division may not be able to maintain such a high fighting spirit.

    It is important to know that the fighting will of a unit is often directly related to the history and tradition of the unit. In view of this, Tanaka Shizuichi immediately ordered people to call Lieutenant Colonel Yamada, who is in charge of intelligence at the division headquarters, and he must find out.  Who is the opponent!

    Soon, a short officer, less than 1.6 meters tall, came to Tanaka Shizuichi and said loudly: "Your Excellency, division commander, you are looking for me!"

    "Yamada, for being able to capture places like Lu'an and Huoshan, your intelligence department is indispensable. I will ask His Highness the Prince for your credit!" Tian Zhongjing said.

    "Thank you, Division Commander, for your cultivation!" Lieutenant Colonel Yamada said with excitement.

    "Yamada, how much do you know about the army on the opposite hill?" Tanaka Shizuichi quickly got to the point and said seriously.

    Lieutenant Colonel Yamada said hurriedly: "Your Excellency, according to our investigation, there are three armies stationed in Fujin Mountain. On the main position is the 36th Division of the 71st Army of the Government Army, and on the left is the 114th Division of the Northeastern Army.  Division, the position on the right is the 88th Division."

    Since the main attack direction was placed on the main position, Tanaka Shizuichi asked again: "Yamada-kun, what is the situation of this 36th Division?"

    Lieutenant Colonel Yamada said hurriedly: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, this 36th Division is also a well-known elite unit in the Chinese Army. It is one of the more than twenty German weapon divisions formed by the Chinese government. This division is the Showa Division.  In September 2008, four regiments were formed based on the supplementary brigades of the 87th Division and the 88th Division, with the first division commander Song Xilian, deputy division commander Zhong Bin, and chief of staff Xiang Xianju."

    ¡°Not long after its formation, the division participated in the campaign to encircle and suppress the Red Party, and participated in the famous Battle of Huwan. A fierce battle broke out between the division and the Third Red Army in the southeast of Bajiaoting, causing the Red Army to suffer heavy casualties and was forced to withdraw from the battle.¡±

    "Yamada, did this unit also fight against the Imperial Japanese Army?" Tanaka Shizuichi asked again.

    "Hai!"

    Then Lieutenant Colonel Yamada continued: "After the Battle of Shanghai started, the division was urgently transferred from Xi'an to Shanghai. After that, the 36th Division concentrated two regiments and moved south from the north side of Yangshupu to Baoding Road. The imperial army immediately used tanks to support the infantry against the 36th Division.  They carried out many counterattacks, but were all repelled. Later, the unit also organized the famous Huishan Pier counterattack and later the Nanjing offensive. They performed very well and were a unit with good combat effectiveness!"

    After briefly understanding the situation of the 36th Division, Tanaka Shizuichi fell silent. Although he had seen from the previous battle that the defenders on the opposite side were extraordinary, he did not expect that the opponent turned out to be the famous Central Army.  36th Division.

    "When Tanaka Jing thought about it, he didn't know if he was unlucky or lucky to fight with such a force. Maybe it was both.

    Hearing the roars from the defenders¡¯ position instantly aroused Tanaka Shizuichi¡¯s desire to win!

    I saw him walking out of the headquarters, arriving at the place where the front-line troops were gathering, and then striding forward. Regardless of the danger that he might be targeted by the Chinese army's artillery at any time, he waved his command knife, pointed at the garrison position opposite, and shouted loudly.  : "Warriors of the Imperial Army, Your Majesty's subjects, the stupid support/people are using their humble remaining fighting spirit to challenge you. As invincible Imperial soldiers, the existence of the enemy is our failure, that is  Our shame! Can you accept such shame?"

    "cannot!"

    "cannot!"

    "cannot!"

    "Yes, no! It will never be tolerated! We cannot bear such insults. Pick up the guns in your hands and charge. For the sake of the empire and for His Majesty the Emperor, use your swords to chop off the enemy's heads and let them tremble in front of you.  , and also let these stupid supporters know that resistance is futile and is a meaningless struggle that will only make them perish faster - charge!"

      With Tanaka Shizuichi's roar, more than 700 Japanese soldiers roared and rushed towards the defenders' position, their expressions ferocious and crazy!

    At the same time, the artillery position located behind the Japanese army also went crazy, and shells were fired one after another as if they were free of charge.

    "Cannon attack! Lie down!"

    The Japanese artillery bombardment stunned the defenders' momentum. While avoiding the artillery bombardment, everyone was ready for battle and ready to fight back at any time.

    "Battal Commander, the little Japs are less than two hundred meters away from our trenches!" the observation sentry said loudly.

    "Don't be anxious, get closer and then fight. We don't have much ammunition, so we can't waste it!" Liu Weizhou said loudly.

    "yes!"

    As the orders continued to be passed on, the soldiers on the front line who were ready to move quickly calmed down, endured the ravages of Japanese artillery, and waited for the Japanese troops to get closer before fighting!

    The distance of several hundred meters would not take more than a few minutes for the Japanese army!

    Soon, the observation post reported again: "Batalion Commander, the little devil has entered within a range of 150 meters!"

    "wait!"

    "yes!"

    Two minutes later, the observation post reported again: "Batalion Commander, it's 100 meters away!"

    At this time, Liu Weizhou said loudly: "Give me the order, everyone should open fire immediately and shoot out all the bullets in the gun chamber!"

    After saying that, he took the lead and pulled the trigger in his hand!

    Immediately, there was a crisp "ta-da" sound on the battlefield, and then I saw several Japanese soldiers rushing in front being shot to the ground.

    At the same time, other soldiers on the garrison position also opened fire one after another. The intensive firepower instantly enveloped the little Japs, and the Japs soldiers rushing in front were continuously knocked down.

    But the little devil¡¯s reaction was also very fast. Everyone immediately fell to the ground and quickly looked for various bunkers, even using the bodies of the dead as bunkers to fight back.

    The overall shooting level of the Japanese army is much higher than that of the Chinese army. Even the elites of the Central Army such as the 36th Division cannot compete with it. This pair of shots caused a sharp increase in the casualties of the defenders.

    The Japanese army took this opportunity to continuously attack forward. Their intention was very simple, that is, to rush into the front-line trenches and then fight face to face, because the Japanese army was best at hand-to-hand combat.

    However, the defenders did not give them this chance. They saw that the Japs had advanced another twenty or thirty meters, and their vanguard troops were only sixty or seventy meters away from the frontline trenches. The situation was very critical.

    At this time, Liu Weizhou shouted loudly: "Prepare grenades for me. When the little devil enters the 40-meter red line, throw all the grenades out immediately. Remember to delay the explosion. I will treat the little devil to a dry meal!"  "

    "yes!"
