After resolving the aerial threat, Hu Lian had nothing to worry about. The ground positions were fully prepared for battle. Without aerial support, the Japanese army still began to attack. After a round of shelling, the Japanese troops formed a skirmishing formation.

Rush towards the position.

Hu Lian was a very cunning fox. He ordered the army to carefully screen the soldiers in each department and arrange them into first-level shooters, second-level shooters, third-level shooters, etc. The Japanese were still more than 300 meters away from the position.

The commanders of each regiment on the battlefield began to order each battalion to start shooting. After receiving the order, the company commanders of each company on the position immediately issued the same order: "Attention

, the first-level shooters started shooting freely." There was a sparse sound of shooting immediately on the position. These shooters were selected from the best. They all used sniper rifles. They were simply sharpshooters who shot a Japanese in the head with one shot. When the Japanese entered the three hundred

Within meters, the company commanders of each company ordered the second-level shooters to join in the shooting, and the lethality increased significantly. It seemed that the gunmen were fired from the position.

The sound was sparse, but the Japanese were marching slowly. It seemed that the casualties were not large, but they added up. How many people would die if the formation advanced 100 meters? The attacking Japanese hunched over and slowly entered 200 meters.

At a range of fifty meters, level three marksmen joined the shooting ranks. Now the number of people increased. At least half of the people in the army were level three marksmen or above.

Who calls this pervert rich when all this is done with bullets? The lethality was so great at this moment that the Japanese had to retreat due to excessive casualties before they even reached 200 meters in front of the position.

This is the situation in almost every regiment's position. The Japs in front of each position were forced to evacuate even if they were attacked by a large group of Japanese soldiers before they could get within 200 meters.

As soon as the Japanese retreated, the soldiers on the position began to evacuate in an orderly manner. There were evacuation channels at regular intervals in the trenches. Only a few soldiers were left on the position and hid in the cat's ear holes. Only a few soldiers were left in the long trenches.

There are observation posts to monitor the enemy's situation. As soon as the enemy's shelling stops, the soldiers hiding in the cat's ears of the trenches will quickly enter the position, while the retreating soldiers will quickly enter the trenches through the access roads. The distance of twenty meters is also

It only takes a few minutes.

The division commander of the Eighth Japanese Division was very confused. Bageya Road, why did the Chinese army change its tactics and stop adopting a close combat strategy? Bage, where did they find so many sharpshooters, causing countless casualties to the imperial army?

Yeah, the key is not to be injured. Each brigade's attack resulted in almost half casualties, nearly three hundred casualties. The four infantry brigade's attack brigade suffered more than a thousand casualties.

In the afternoon, the Japanese changed their attack tactics. They first violently bombarded the position with artillery fire, which lasted for nearly half an hour. The entire position was covered by enemy artillery fire, and the position was filled with smoke.

This had no effect at all. Most of the people on the position were hiding from the artillery fire in the Maoer Cave, and there were very few casualties. As soon as the Japanese artillery fire stopped, the soldiers hiding in the Maoer Cave quickly entered the position and stood ready.

The large troops behind ran into the position and completed the entire position in a few minutes.

In the afternoon attack, the Japs marched forward with a squadron of troops, and their marching speed was very slow. The Japs soldiers were looking for cover and moved forward carefully, with a large group of troops following behind at a distance.

The Chinese Imperial Army on the position looked at it and thought, Hey, the Japanese are so cunning. They look for cover to hide, and rush forward when they have the opportunity. This is not a problem for the soldiers on the position.

"Li Guaizi, let's test whose marksmanship is accurate. If you see that there is no big rock behind, the Japanese is showing his feet, and the one next to him is showing half of his butt. Which one do you choose?" Zhang Heizi said provocatively.

"It's a competition, who's afraid of whom? I'll give you the easy one, and I'll choose the one with bare feet and cripple his feet to make him lame, hehe." Li Guaizi said jokingly.

"Look, if you make him a cripple, I'll make him have no balls. Let's get started." Zhang Heizi said disdainfully.

The other people around didn't have such good marksmanship, so they were just watching the excitement. These two were both first-class shooters who ranked relatively high in the regiment. The two of them held their breath and began to aim at the target, three hundred and fifty meters.

Seeing people from a long distance is a bit blurry, and it is absolutely impossible to see people without a scope.

"Bagou.", "Bagou." A gunshot was followed immediately by another gunshot. The two Japs in the distance were seen rolling on the ground one after another. It seemed that they were hit. Zhang Heizi and Li Guaizi exchanged blows.

He gestured with his thumb, causing a commotion among the surrounding soldiers.

At first glance, the tactics of the Japs seemed good, with the casualties significantly reduced. However, a squadron of 250 Japs soldiers were scattered more than 300 meters in front of the position. They were all looking for cover to hide. If there was a cover in front, they would move forward.

, If not, just lie there and don't move. When can we reach this distance of more than 300 meters? It's all for the sharpshooters of the Chinese Empire Army to train.

After more than an hour of arduous march, the Japanese soldiers finally advanced to a distance of about 300 meters in front of the position. However, there were less than 200 soldiers left who could fight, and not many of them actually died, mainly due to injuries.

There were more attrition. The Japanese entered the top three positions.

There will be trouble within a hundred meters. The second-level shooters of the Chinese Empire Army are already eager to try and join the ranks of hunting one after another. No one is willing to lag behind others. The sound of shooting on the position has obviously increased. Now the Japanese are

It’s hard, it hurts

The number of dead began to increase. The 50-meter distance from 300 meters to 250 meters was simply the death line. In the past 40 minutes, 70 or 80 Japs were killed. The Japs brigade originally following behind

The troops and horses should decide to advance based on the specific conditions of the battlefield.

Retreat, once the Japs in front enter the position and charge, they will not hesitate to press forward. Now, look at it, damn, the forwards of a squadron are not even half, let alone still far away from the position.

Then, with no choice but to do so, the Japanese had no choice but to retreat.

In one day of fighting, the Chinese Imperial Army wiped out more than 2,000 enemies, which made the Eighth Division a little overwhelmed. So many people died without even touching the edge of the fucking position. How could the same army change so much?

What? It’s really confusing.

The next day, the Japanese attack weakened significantly. Twenty minutes of artillery bombardment was followed by a squadron of Japanese attacks. When they saw that they could not attack, they withdrew their troops. There was another attack in the afternoon. Obviously, a large number of Japanese soldiers appeared in the first day's battle.

The heavy casualties made the Japanese feel a little overwhelmed and they did not dare to attack like this again.

The Chinese Imperial Army was able to keep its composure. If you don’t attack me and knock me down, I won’t touch you, let alone mount any counterattacks and just stay in position. As a result, the intensity of the battle between the two sides gradually decreased, and the Jinan front remained in a stalemate.
