"Is it Yan Song, the commander of the third battalion? I am the commander of the regiment Wang Ping! Don't speak for now, listen carefully to every word I say next!" Wang Ping took the phone and started giving orders without any delay.

"The attack you are facing today must be more violent than yesterday afternoon. I believe you have already felt the artillery fire and aircraft bombing. You know the situation in the regiment. I don't have any soldiers. However, I can satisfy you unconditionally in terms of equipment!"

"But you have to make sure to use the remaining three lines of defense to stick to dark!"

"From now on, you can control the counterattack time of all machine gun castles on the position. However, I suggest that machine gun castles should not fire at the same time. However, you can increase the firepower of machine gun castles as much as possible. Ensure that each machine gun castle will kill more Japanese troops in one minute of shooting!"

"Last night we seized a lot of heavy machine guns, light machine guns, and grenade launchers. I'll ask the political commissar to arrange for everyone to send them to you!"

"In addition, I will give all of the firepower companies of the two battalions and the mortars seized last night to you. Be sure to hold on until dark!"

"What I want to tell you in the end is that at critical moments, the infantry artillery company and the mountain artillery company will also fire artillery to provide you with artillery fire support!"

When the Japanese army had absolute air superiority and artillery fire support, the Independent Regiment used artillery to counterattack, which was no different from killing him.

But Yan Song knew that these artillery did not have no effect at all.

As long as the arrangement is properly, the short-term artillery attack will definitely cause considerable casualties to the Japanese offensive troops.

More importantly, artillery that made the Japanese feel concerned can distract the attention of Japanese artillery and air bombers as much as possible on the battlefield and reduce the pressure on the defenders on the positions.

It can be said that in order to defend the position, Wang Ping took out all the assets that the Independent Group could take, and handed over to himself.

A soldier died for his confidant! These words suddenly appeared in the mind of the Third Battalion Commander Yan Song.

Then he promised loudly: "Please rest assured, the leader of the regiment, the political commissar, and the chief of staff, Yan Song ensures that the task is completed!"

After finally ending the artillery and bombing, the Japanese and puppet troops appeared on the battlefield.

A small team of puppet troops and a company of the Imperial Army were the first echelons, followed by the second and third echelons of the same force.

The last attack yesterday allowed the Japanese to taste the benefits of this style of play. As soon as they came up, the Chief of Staff copied yesterday's attack method and prepared to break through the fourth line of defense of the Independent Regiment in an offensive manner to avenge revenge!

Ma Qingyun, the company commander of the 3rd Battalion's 1st Company, was the direct commander of the fourth line of defense of the Independent Regiment.

After the troops rushed out of the anti-aircraft hole with mortar shells falling from the sky, more than 300 people in the Japanese bombing directly lost nearly two platoons.

Because two anti-aircraft holes were blown up, the nearly two platoon soldiers died without even seeing them.

Ma Qingyun's anger can be imagined. He stared at the Japanese and puppet troops rushing over and vowed to kill them all in front of the position.

"Company Commander, Battalion Commander's order, from now on, the artillery platoon of the firepower company will be under our command. After strengthening, the artillery platoon has been equipped with a total of six mortars!" The instructor suddenly rushed over and reported with a look of surprise.

"Also, the battalion commander gave us three heavy machine guns, three machine guns, and three grenade launchers. These weapons will be delivered immediately."

"Are you said it wrong?" Ma Qingyun stared at the instructor and asked back.

Seeing the instructor nodding for sure, Ma Qingyun's face, which had just been solemn, began to shine.

He frowned and ordered: "I just planned to use the machine gun castle now, but now it seems that I can't use it for the time being?"

"Contact the cannon platoon. After the enemy's first echelon rushed to the front of the formation sixty or seventy meters, they immediately fired the cannon and stared at the Japanese walking behind the first echelon to shoot. One cannon has five shells, and it will be transferred after it is fired!"

"All the light and heavy machine guns in the entire company are concentrated, and all the artillery platoons are firing after firing. Use the most violent firepower to kill the first echelon of Japanese and puppet troops!"

The Japanese chief of staff stared at the battlefield, waiting with confidence for the machine gun castle on the position to fire, and then guided the air bombers to kill them and take the opportunity to break through the defense line of the independent regiment.

Six fireballs mixed with large amounts of black smoke suddenly exploded in the middle of nearly 200 offensive troops in the first echelon.

"Baga, it's an artillery. The Independent Regiment dared to launch artillery without any firepower advantage. It seems that they have reached the last moment of life and death!" The Chief of Staff's first reaction was anger, because the battle situation did not move in the direction he expected. Then there was a surprise, and he shouted happily.

Then he ordered his subordinates: "Contact the artillery brigade, fight back immediately, and destroy these artillery!"

"Contact the Air Force and ask them to destroy the artillery exposed by the Eighth Route Army from the air! The opponent is too cunning and can be transferred after firing a few shots. It is difficult to catch them immediately by relying on artillery alone!"

When the mountain running and bombers were all aiming at six mortars, they were still firing, shooting the shells as fast as they could.

Ma Qingyun on the position had already received the light and heavy machine gun sent by Yan Song. Without saying a word, he immediately ordered his subordinates to shoot and fight back.

Three heavy machine guns and eleven light machine guns lined up in a row. Suddenly, the Imperial Army that was blocking the Japanese killed and suffered heavy casualties.

A shell fell down above his head, and a dense rain-like bullet flew over in front of him. More than a hundred Japanese and puppet troops instantly turned into lambs and were massacred amid the dense sound of gunfire.

"Baga, counterattack, counterattack immediately! Heavy machine guns, mortars, fire cover, suppress the Eighth Route Army on the position!" The Japanese chief of staff who had just been settled was immediately frightened by the powerful firepower on the position, and shouted in shock.

However, after the order was issued, the Chief of Staff's face calmed down.

He was confident that whether it was the shelling just now or the powerful firepower now, the Independent Regiment was making the final struggle.

Faced with the powerful firepower of the Imperial Army, these struggles are futile and can at most be regarded as a flash in the pan on the battlefield.

Sure enough, the artillery brigade began to counterattack, and the rain of shells that kept hitting the attacking troops stopped.

With the counterattack of its powerful heavy machine gun troops and artillery units, the Independent Regiment's intensive blocking firepower just now became intermittent.

"Company Commander, the Japanese's offensive firepower is too strong, and we have suffered heavy casualties!" Seeing that the machine gunners who had almost changed into light and heavy machine guns, the instructor rushed to Ma Qingyun anxiously and reminded him.

"The Japanese and puppet troops in the first echelon have lost their partners. Our goal is to achieve, let the soldiers persevere!" Ma Qingyun gritted his teeth and ordered.

But at this moment, the Japanese and puppet troops in the second echelon also rushed up.

"Have the artillery platoon been successfully transferred!" Ma Qingyun immediately asked.

"The mortars and artillery that lost half of the damage were stared at by the Japanese planes, and the others hid in the anti-aircraft holes and did not dare to come out."

"We must attract the Japanese planes to create another chance for artillery platoons to launch fire, and shell out the Japanese and puppet troops in the second echelon. When facing the attack of two echelons at a time, the pressure is too great, so we will definitely not be able to withstand it!"

Soon, Ma Qingyun showed a firm expression on his face, and then he began to give orders.

"Instructor, order the left-wing machine gun castle to aim at the Japanese and puppet troops in the second echelon, shoot with all their might, and withdraw the machine gun castle in one minute!"

As soon as the machine gun castle was fired, a smug smile flashed across the face of the Japanese chief of staff who was supervising the battle behind.

"I finally couldn't help but shoot, and ordered the artillery and bombers to destroy it immediately, cover the offensive forces, and continue the assault!"

As soon as the Japanese bomber left, Ma Qingyun also ordered: "Contact the artillery platoon and fire the Japanese and puppet troops in the second echelon immediately. The old rules are: retreat after the shooting!"
