At the Japanese military station, Colonel Takahashi stood on a small high ground, staring at the battlefield, his face becoming increasingly gloomy.
He also saw the signal flares flying into the sky, and Takahashi understood that a new round of attack by the Eighth Route Army was about to begin.
Then I saw the second line of defense flashing with fire and smoke filling the air. After a few seconds, the earth-shattering explosions reached my ears.
"Baga...another hateful flying thunder cannon." Takahashi gnashed his teeth and cursed.
Then he was very dissatisfied with his subordinates and asked: "Aren't the mountain artillery ready yet? The shells of the thunder cannon have already hit the imperial army on the front line. If they don't fire the artillery and destroy those thunder cannons, the second line of defense will also
Can’t keep it!”
The subordinate answered carefully: "Sir, we just received the report, they still need five minutes."
"No." Colonel Takahashi denied without hesitation.
Then anger emerged: "Five minutes is too long. The artillery must be fired in a maximum of two minutes, otherwise military law will be engaged."
"Directly attack the Eighth Route Army's flying thunder cannon positions and destroy all those flying thunder cannons."
"Although the flying thunder cannon has many shortcomings, it is very powerful. It moves quietly near us, and a single explosive pack can take away the lives of more than a dozen imperial troops."
"If dozens of them were fired at the same time like just now, an infantry squadron would be killed in an instant."
"All these weapons of mass murder must be destroyed."
When his subordinates hurriedly rushed to the artillery position with Takahashi's angry orders, a fire flashed around the reinforcements that had rushed out of the station more than 500 meters, and the sound of explosions followed closely.
"On Bageya Road, the garrison wants to use artillery fire to block our reinforcements and buy time for the infantry to counterattack our second line of defense."
Colonel Takahashi's reaction was quick.
Then he cursed with anger: "What does Ishida do for food? It has been so long and you still haven't killed those mortars?"
"Tell Ishida to counterattack immediately, suppress and destroy this artillery unit, and cover the reinforcements to successfully reinforce the second line of defense."
After receiving the order, a communications officer rushed towards the artillery position not far away.
"Boom boom boom..."
Another series of explosions rang in my ears, and they came from the artillery position being established behind me.
Takahashi's face became increasingly serious.
Even a fool can tell that the sound is the explosion of artillery shells, not the firing of field cannon.
He has been on the battlefield for a long time, so he can definitely hear it.
"Sir, the mountain artillery position is under shelling..." The communications officer who went to give orders underground at the mountain artillery position rushed back to report.
"The Eighth Route Army used mortars, which were also mixed with many heavy mortars. They were powerful and fierce. In order to avoid damage to the equipment, the two artillery squadrons had to move their positions and establish new artillery positions. In a short time
There is no way to join the battle."
"Asshole, they have withdrawn, what will happen to the Imperial Army on the front line?" Osaka Takahashi was anxious.
"Could it be possible to watch their entire army being destroyed by thunder and artillery strikes, and the second line of defense was also occupied by the Eighth Route Army?"
The subordinate lowered his head, not knowing how to answer.
Angry and anxious, Colonel Takahashi did not lose his cool.
His mind was running at high speed, thinking of solutions. Within a few seconds, he turned his attention to the chief of staff: "Immediately mobilize all the remaining artillery units in the station to suppress these two artillery units. I don't believe that so many artillery units can't take down the defense.
The regiment has less than twenty mortars.”
After saying that, Colonel Takahashi's eyes returned to the battlefield.
The mountain artillery and infantry artillery commanded by Captain Ishida roared again, and the artillery company of the third battalion intercepting the reinforcements had to stop firing, move their positions, and avoid the artillery fire.
More than a thousand little Japs seized the opportunity and started running again, heading towards the battlefield in a mighty manner.
Colonel Takahashi looked much better, and seized the opportunity to order: "Tell the reinforcements to rush to the battlefield, and if there is a chance, they will strangle with the counterattack troops of the Eighth Route Army to render the thunder cannon ineffective, and then kill them with bayonets."
"We have a strength advantage, and the garrison will definitely not be our opponent if we fight for attrition."
"And I believe that the imperial army's assassination skills are unmatched in the world. Even if the garrison is very powerful, the imperial army can use bayonets to kill them one against two."
"If there is no chance, we must immediately concentrate all mortars and grenade launchers to kill the flying thunder cannons in the hands of the Eighth Route Army, and then launch an attack to regain the lost positions."
The second round of explosive packets thrown by the thunder cannon has become the second line of defense of the Japanese army.
Before the explosions stopped, more than 300 soldiers from the guard camp rushed out of their positions and rushed towards the battlefield like hungry wolves.
They have to compete with the Japanese reinforcements for time.
Just now, the artillery battery bought them nearly two minutes and dragged the reinforcements six to seven hundred meters away from the second line of defense.
He is three hundred meters away from the defense line, and the difference is less than four hundred meters.
In terms of distance, the guard company would definitely be able to rush into position ahead of the Japanese.
However, no one can guarantee that all the Japanese on the defensive line will be killed by explosive charges.
If not, the troops will have to destroy the remaining enemies after rushing forward, and then they can completely occupy the defense line and establish blocking positions on the spot.
This takes a lot of time.
Therefore, the guard battalion can only try to compress the attack time as much as possible and leave more time to deal with possible accidents.
Behind the guard battalion was the third battalion, and behind the third battalion was the anti-aircraft battalion that rushed over.
Battalion Commander Chen Quan, a veteran of the Red Army, started out as a machine gunner. When the army was reorganized into a garrison, he served as the leader of the machine gun platoon of the first battalion. He was very accurate in shooting machine guns, and he was also educated and flexible.
After being favored by Li Hao, he was directly promoted to the commander of the air defense company.
At that time, the air defense company did not have anti-aircraft machine guns, but under the command of Chen Quan, it still used more than a dozen light and heavy machine guns to ambush the Japanese aviation troops, killing one aircraft and seriously injuring another.
Nowadays, the air defense company has expanded its air defense battalion, and its equipment has been replaced with genuine anti-aircraft machine guns. Battalion Commander Chen Quan's courage and combat confidence are stronger than before. He is always thinking about how to use the air defense battalion to make achievements.
Now the opportunity has come.
As soon as the guard camp moved, Chen Quan's eyes began to light up.
"One squad is responsible for one anti-aircraft machine gun. After entering the position, they immediately set up the gun and follow my orders before firing."
"Our air defense battalion will do nothing if we don't take action. If we do, we will give the Japanese a fatal blow."
"Let the Japanese know that our air defense battalion can not only fight aircraft, but also fight their infantry."
"Rush..."
The shouts of killing erupted from the third battalion suddenly...
More than four hundred soldiers, armed with guns, rushed out of the position like little tigers.
Chen Quan seemed to have seen the scene of the air defense battalion killing everyone on the battlefield, and immediately shouted: "Air defense battalion, all follow me!"
Two soldiers were in charge of an anti-aircraft machine gun, while the remaining soldiers carried ammunition and tripods and began to attack after hearing the order.
Although the load is heavy, the attack pace is not slow at all, just behind the third battalion!
