"Regiment commander, the thunder cannon platoon reports that all the thunder cannons are ready to fire." The correspondent rushed over and reported.
"Commander, the guard battalion is ready for an assault!"
"The third battalion is ready for the assault!"
Li Hao hesitated for a moment, and after confirming that the next attack was flawless, he was ready to give the order.
Before he could say anything, a figure appeared in his field of vision and rushed towards him.
"There must be some emergency!" Li Hao thought secretly.
He decisively swallowed the order that had come to his lips and decided to postpone his actions until he knew what the unexpected situation was before deciding whether to continue the assault.
"Captain, there's a situation!" the subordinates who were flying over shouted from a distance.
Huang Sheng immediately introduced: "He is the reconnaissance platoon leader of the third battalion, responsible for the reconnaissance and security of the entire battlefield!"
The reconnaissance platoon leader quickly rushed to Li Hao, forgetting to salute, and directly reported: "There are troops coming out of the Japanese army station."
"A group of little Japs came towards the battlefield, bringing mortars and heavy machine guns with them."
"And their mountain artillery and field artillery units also moved."
"At least two mountain artillery squadrons are setting up artillery and may fire at us at any time."
Li Hao's face became more and more serious.
The Japanese's response was faster than they expected, and their attitude in holding their position was more determined than expected.
Seeing that the regiment leader was silent, Huang Sheng suggested: "Captain, I suggest suspending the attack."
"Once the more than a thousand elite Japanese soldiers get into a melee with our troops, they will definitely consume all our few troops. It would be a huge loss."
Li Hao's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, his mind working rapidly, thinking of solutions.
Under Huang Sheng's gaze, he replied firmly: "No, the attack will continue."
"As the saying goes, the brave will be starved to death, and the timid will be starved to death."
"Didn't the little devils come with another group? We will swallow them all together."
"To put it another way, even if I can't swallow it, I will hit them hard and kill them all."
After speaking, Li Hao asked directly: "Where is the air defense camp!"
"Two hundred meters behind us!"
A combat staff officer following Li Hao answered.
Li Hao ordered with gleaming eyes: "It's not too late!"
"Order them to assemble their troops immediately, bring weapons and ammunition to join the battle, and be quick."
"Guard Battalion, Third Battalion, start attacking now, take down the Japs' second line of defense in the shortest possible time, and then defend on the spot."
"As soon as the air defense battalion is in place, the offensive troops will be reinforced. All anti-aircraft machine guns will be set up on the position to shoot at the Japanese reinforcements."
"The artillery company of the third battalion, I don't care how many guns they have left, I will immediately adjust the bombardment target. Use artillery fire to intercept the Japanese reinforcements and ensure that the offensive troops completely occupy the Japanese second line of defense."
"The artillery company of the guard battalion found the artillery positions being established by the Japanese and puppet troops, and immediately opened fire to harass them and not give the Japanese artillery a chance to fire."
Huang Sheng felt faintly uneasy and quickly reminded: "Captain, there is a problem here."
"In addition to the two mountain artillery squadrons that are setting up artillery, there are also several mortar squadrons. The infantry artillery squad has not moved."
"We can stop those two mountain artillery squadrons from firing, but we can't stop other artillery units."
"After the reinforcements are intercepted by us, the Japanese will definitely use other artillery units. Maybe the heavy artillery brigade will join the battle and attack our artillery units and offensive troops. Then tonight's counterattack will become a decisive battle."
"Even if we wipe out the infantry brigade that the Japanese troops came over, we will pay a very heavy price. Maybe two battalions will be wiped out."
"At that time, there will still be more than 3,000 Japanese troops stationed here. We will only have a few defeated generals and local troops left here. We will definitely not be able to stop their next attack."
Li Hao answered confidently: "Don't worry, the Japanese won't have this chance."
"I will definitely defeat this group before their new artillery unit joins the battle."
"As soon as this brigade retreats, we can continue to counterattack, and the air defense battalion can also retreat."
"The battlefield is so big, even if the little Japs concentrate all the remaining artillery fire, they won't be able to threaten us."
Huang Sheng's eyes widened and he looked at Li Hao and asked with disbelief.
"How can this be."
"Captain, please don't frame me."
"The Japanese army is well-trained. The artillery unit receives orders, assembles troops, establishes artillery positions, and then fires artillery. It can be done in fifteen minutes at most."
"We still have to give the counterattack forces some time to retreat, which means we have to defeat a Japanese infantry brigade within ten minutes. This is absolutely impossible."
"Even if the reinforcements are a thousand pigs, we can't defeat them in such a short time, let alone more than a thousand well-trained and armed elites."
Li Hao's face was still as firm and confident as ever.
Looking at Huang Sheng, he replied: "That's because you have never seen the power of an anti-aircraft machine gun."
"Once you see me, you won't doubt what I just said."
"Excuting an order……"
"Bang, bang, bang..." Three flares flew into the sky, and three white lights burst out at the highest point.
The Guard Battalion and the Third Battalion saw it, and so did the Japanese.
The Japanese deputy captain, who was holding the second line of defense, felt nervous and shouted anxiously: "Bagh Ya Road must be a signal for the Eighth Route Army to continue its attack."
"Everyone is ready to fight and hold their positions."
"Hold on until the reinforcements arrive, and we will win... Boom boom boom..."
Before the vice-captain finished speaking, a string of flames erupted from the position just occupied by the Eighth Route Army 300 meters away, and it took a second for the explosion to be heard.
The vice-captain's face turned pale quickly and he shouted anxiously.
"Bagya Road, there are thunder cannons again, everyone takes cover."
"Where's the artillery? Counterattack immediately, concentrate all mortars and grenades, and destroy those mine cannons!"
There are two infantry squadrons here, equipped with twelve grenade launchers and three mortars.
If the Eighth Route Army attacking you only has five or six thunder cannons, and a round of five or six explosive charges can kill at most half the squadron, the remaining soldiers will immediately use mortars and grenade launchers to counterattack.
Destroy it before the second round of explosive charges.
But Li Hao had already figured this out.
The flying thunder cannon has too many shortcomings. If you don't use it, you must give the enemy a fatal attack and not give them a chance to counterattack.
Therefore, twenty thunder cannons were concentrated at once to cover the infantry to launch a counterattack.
A round of shooting crippled the Japs on the position, making them lose their ability to fight back and continue to be bombed.
"Rumble..."
The explosion sounded in the deputy captain's ears, deafening, and then he felt like he was flying.
It was as if my internal organs had been hit hard and it was very painful.
Then the whole person lost consciousness, and finally he was smashed dozens of meters away and turned into a corpse.
