Chapter 356 reinforcements have arrived
"Sakata-kun, the firepower of the defenders is indeed very fierce, exceeding our expectations. ⊙, but their defenders only have one battalion at most. In the battle just now, we ate at least one company on the other side. As long as we continue to assault the defenders' positions, it will not take long for us to exhaust the defenders..." Matsumoto replied with a gloomy face.
Then, he decisively ordered: "There is not much time left, so he ordered the troops to continue to launch assaults on the Liaodong Army's positions. Two squadrons at a time, and after rushing out fifty meters, he sent two squadrons to continuously. I want to use wheel battles and consume the defenders in the shortest time..."
Soon, a new round of Japanese attack began.
Before the battalion commander could breathe, he saw the attacking troops of two Japanese squadrons at the guard's reminder.
"The Japanese are indeed crazy and don't even give me the chance to breathe. They want to exhaust us to death and consume it here..." With just one glance, the battalion commander with a frown could see the purpose of the Japanese.
Before the Japanese could reach the position, the battalion commander immediately asked the instructor beside him.
"How many people are left to continue fighting, and how much ammunition is there?"
"There are more than 350 people who can continue fighting... The light and heavy machine gunners suffered the biggest losses, almost two rounds..."
"The ammunition is still sufficient, and there is no problem in repelling the Japanese attacks four more times..."
The battalion commander nodded and replied in a heavy tone: "The Japanese are crazy now. If they don't take our position and attack, they won't stop... You see, two squadrons were sent behind the front two squadrons, and the Japanese army was using wheel battles to consume us a lot."
"For us, this is not only a test of military strength, but also a test of the brothers' physical strength and perseverance..."
"Because, the next battle is likely to not stop once the fight starts, and it will last for at least a few hours..."
"How long will the reinforcements in the regiment arrive? According to the Japanese attack method, we can only block the first round of attacks by the two squadrons of the Japanese army..."
"At most five minutes, a company's forward can arrive... Our troops arranged on the hill have seen them..." The instructor replied with a positive look.
"Enough. With our current troops, it should be enough to block the Japanese for another five minutes..." The battalion commander breathed a sigh of relief and replied confidently.
Then, he ordered to the company commanders around him: "You heard it all. Hold on for another five minutes, and the reinforcements will arrive... They are all ready for battle. As soon as the Japanese heavy machine guns stop shooting, we will fight back and use the strongest firepower to repel the Japanese attack."
Like the battle that had just ended, as soon as the Japanese army rushed to the front of the formation fifty meters, the heavy machine guns behind them that were covered with fire. Nearly 400 infantrymen of the two squadrons seemed to have been fired, and they were completely unafraid of death and rushed towards the first camp position.
At this moment, the battalion also moved.
The dense gunfire sounded in the position instantly, and the remaining 300 people in the first battalion were also in a desperate manner, and they shot bullets forward as quickly as possible.
What's more, some machine gunners who were already crazy actually stood up from the trench with machine guns in order to increase the lethality of the machine guns, and shot the Japanese army close at hand from a high place.
Their results were achieved, but the Japanese were not lambs that could be slaughtered. These machine gunners who were in a state of madness were often hit by the deadly bullets shot by the Japanese before they could finish their bullets. With a look of reluctance, they fell in the trenches and turned into corpses.
This situation happened every moment in the trenches of a battalion that were several hundred meters long.
Facing the Japanese who were rushing closer and closer, the battalion commander, who was also red in his eyes, wanted to give orders to stop the machine gunner from leaving the trenches.
However, the order came to his mouth several times, but he swallowed it back.
Faced with the almost crazy attack of the Japanese, if these machine gunners had not fought back, the Japanese might have rushed to the position and fought with them.
When the last Japanese fell less than ten meters away from the position, the battalion commander was about to breathe a sigh of relief. A scream followed and it reached the battalion commander's ears.
"The Japanese are recharged again..."
After glanced at the tired subordinates around him, the battalion commander didn't know what to say to boost morale.
After a brief silence, he ordered very decisively: "Prepare for battle... Even if you die in battle, you must block the Japanese..."
The battalion commander squatting in the trenches stared at his red eyes and quietly waited for the Japanese heavy machine gun to cease fire.
A cry of excitement finally reached the battalion commander's ears.
"Reinforcement force, our reinforcements are here..."
"****, we're finally here... If we come a few minutes later, my first battalion will have to explain it here..." Seeing the subordinates of less than two hundred remaining soldiers in the trench, the battalion commander couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, the battalion commander's tense nerves did not relax at all.
Without even turning his head, he ordered: "Let them get into the position immediately... The Japanese attack was too fierce, and I don't have time to give them a rest..."
With the support of a new force, the Japanese army was defeated again, and the entire army was destroyed without even rushing to the front of the battle.
You know, when a company arrived, not only more than a hundred people came, but also six light machine guns and two heavy machine guns.
With so many light and heavy machine guns in the position all at once, no matter how capable the Japanese are, they are no match for steel bullets.
The last Japanese in the two squadrons had just fallen to the ground, and the regiment commander's satisfied voice rang behind the first battalion commander.
"Okay...it's good to fight...If I'm not mistaken, the bodies of two Japanese infantry brigades should have been placed in front of the position..."
"Your battalion not only defended the position, but also destroyed so many Japanese people. It is definitely a great achievement..."
"Control Commander... You are here. If you don't come again, the first battalion will have to explain it to you here..." The first battalion commander said with a sad face.
Because, in the just-concluded battle, the first battalion lost nearly a hundred people again.
There was a battalion of nearly 600 people more than half an hour ago, and now there are not even people left next time.
Looking at his subordinates in front of him with smoke, the team leader's face also became solemn.
He said seriously to the first battalion commander and the remaining soldiers of less than a hundred people in the first battalion, "Those brothers who died in battle are heroes. They beat the Japanese and died for the sake of the country..."
"Brothers, don't worry, my Liaodong Army keeps our word and will definitely fulfill the promises we promised to everyone, treat these families of the warriors who died in battle, so that they will die without any worries..."
Speaking of this, the regiment commander and the troops who had just arrived at the position directly saluted a serious military salute to the first battalion.
After that, the regiment commander ordered: "The Japanese are coming up again... Second Battalion, replace the first battalion immediately..."
