Seeing Yu Yang walking into the headquarters, Ma Shun saluted Yu Yang and gave up his position. This guy is a bit stereotyped. How to describe this guy? If this guy is white, he must be German. The whole three
In the camp, even the trenches dug by Wang Hao and his men were not as good as this guy.
"How are the casualties?" He glanced at the platoon leader of the Eighth Company. They were all there. The Ninth Company had just sacrificed a platoon leader. It seemed that the Eighth Company's casualties were not too serious.
"Battal Commander, we just calculated that there are four casualties in the first platoon, three casualties in the second platoon, and no casualties in the third platoon!"
There were only seven casualties in total, which was much beyond Yu Yang's expectation. He gave Ma Shun a thumbs up: "Good job, keep up. The Japs are about to attack. They should use tanks to lead the attack later. We must do it."
Fight tanks according to the method I told you yesterday, remember!"
"It's the battalion commander, I promise to complete the mission!"
"Very good, you continue, I'll go see the Seventh Company!"
The single-digit casualties of the Eighth Company made Yu Yang feel good. With such intensive artillery bombardment, the entire company might be killed. Such low casualties can only be described as miracles. If Yu Yang was in charge, Yu Yang would not be able to do anything.
It can definitely be done.
Yu Yang walked around the Eighth Company position and understood why the Eighth Company's casualties were so low. When the position was being built yesterday, the Eighth Company's position was much better repaired than the Seventh Company and Ninth Company. The entire position was S-shaped, even though
When the artillery shells fell into the position, the casualties were limited, and the bomb shelters were built very reasonably. There was a bomb shelter thirty meters away, not far away, not close. Even if one place was hit, it would not affect the rest.
place.
These bomb shelter craters are distributed in the protruding parts of the S position. Unless the artillery shells fall on the top of the formation or in front of the formation, it will be difficult to cause effective damage to the soldiers in the bomb shelter craters.
The few soldiers who died in the Eighth Company were not very lucky. The shells fell on their heads and directly collapsed the entire shelter. Avoiding the shells, especially the intensive bombing, all depended on luck. The veterans may have been lucky when the shells were scarce.
, you can judge the approximate location through the sound of breaking through the air, but under carpet bombing, you can't judge at all. Even if you can judge, it will only go from the killing range of one shell to the shadow of another death.
The Seventh Company belongs to the reserve team, and its position is relatively far back. Wang Hao chose to dig a position around a ruin. When Yu Yang came to the Seventh Company's position, the previous broken walls had disappeared, and no complete piece could be seen.
The buildings were turned into rubble, and screams continued to be heard from the position.
Yu Yang's heart dropped. Looking at this situation, the Seventh Company was even worse than the Ninth Company. He jumped into the trench and saw Wang Hao bandaging a soldier's wound. He immediately stepped forward and asked, "How are the casualties?"
"It's okay. The casualties are not too great. Eight people were killed and 41 were injured!"
Eight people were sacrificed. This number made Yu Yang relieved. However, the number of injured people was relatively high: "Why are there so many people injured!"
Wang Hao helplessly pointed to the rubble beside him: "It's my bad luck. When digging the trench, I didn't consider the ruins on the side. The Japanese shells didn't fall into the position, but they blew up the broken walls and ruins next to it.
There were pebbles and other things flying everywhere just now, and the injured were all hit by these things. Those who died were hit in vital parts by stones, and there was no time to save them!"
"Well, gather the wounded. The Japanese are attacking. The Ninth Company has suffered heavy casualties. They can't withstand your attack!"
Wang Hao nodded and immediately began to assign tasks. Yu Yang turned around and breathed a sigh of relief. This time the Japanese bombardment caused more than 100 casualties to the entire third battalion. This number was much lower than Yu Yang expected.
, Yu Yang was even mentally prepared for more than half of the casualties.
Returning to the headquarters, which should be called the headquarters among the wreckage, Yu Yang looked at the wreckage of his headquarters and found that it was still usable. It was not directly hit by the shell, but the soil at the entrance collapsed, so he dug a few times.
If so, you can continue to use it.
"Battal Commander, Battalion Commander, you're fine!" Yu Yang had just dug a few times when Liu Youcai's voice came from not far away. He turned around and saw this guy crawling out of a bomb shelter.
There are also a few wounded soldiers.
"What are you doing?"
"I will transport the injured soldiers of the Ninth Company, some of them serious ones, down and take care of them!"
"Okay, you go ahead. I'll dig out the headquarters. You can't stand on the road and give orders!" After saying that, Yu Yang picked up a wooden board next to him and dug out the soil buried at the entrance.
A minute later, Yu Yang climbed into his headquarters. Thank God, it did not collapse. Yu Yang saw that his backpack was taken out and patted the dust. There were still many good things in the bag. If it was buried in
Below, the losses are a bit bigger.
On the Japanese position one kilometer away from Luodian, more than a dozen tanks started slowly. Kazuo Tadada, captain of the 34th Regiment's Second Battalion, took out his command sword and waved it vigorously. A dozen tanks started slowly.
They started slowly and moved quickly in the direction of Luodian, and behind these Japanese tanks was a large group of Japanese soldiers.
On the Panjing River, the Japanese built five pontoon bridges overnight last night, allowing Japanese tanks to easily cross the Panjing River and enter the Luodian area.
"Company Commander, the kid is attacking. They have more than a dozen tin cans and they just crossed the river!" After the soldiers at the forward observation post saw the kid, they immediately ran back to the Ninth Company's position.
After Wang Fugui heard this, he raised his brows and slapped the scout on the head: "You know what a tin can is? It's a tank. Okay, you can go back. There is no need to investigate anymore. Brothers, come up here, little devil."
Now, get ready to fight!"
With an order, the soldiers of the Ninth Company entered their trench positions, lay down on the edge of the trench, and looked at the entrance to the landing point. On the side of the Ninth Company's position, a 20mm anti-aircraft cannon had been leveled. This machine gun
The cannon was well hidden by the Ninth Company Commander, and the bombing by the Japs did not damage it at all.
About half a minute later, there was a huge roar in the distance. The soldiers of the Ninth Company in the position looked at each other, wondering what had happened. Some soldiers looked up at the sky, thinking that the Japs' plane was coming again, but the sky was completely empty.
Clouds, no planes.
The roar of the engine was getting closer and closer. When the tank headed by Xiaojiizi entered the 300-meter position of the Ninth Company position, the soldiers on the Ninth Company position finally saw clearly what was making the strange noise.
Most of the soldiers had never seen this kind of iron can-like thing. The few who had seen it had their mouths wide open and their hands were trembling.
