"Come on!"

"Smoke cover!"

Not just the squad leader, more and more soldiers rushed out of the trenches holding explosive packs or cluster grenades.

Because they knew that if they did not stop the enemy tanks, the entire defense line would be shattered under the impact of these iron bastards.

"Fire and kill them!"

"Da da da da da...!"

The kid inside the tank smiled sinisterly, and the machine guns on the five Type 97s sprayed out blazing fire snakes, killing those Chinese soldiers who dared to fly into the flames to the ground.

"Puff puff……"

"ah…"

The flesh and blood bodies looked so fragile under the bullets. Countless soldiers fell on the charging road, but there were still many people who were not afraid of death and continued to rush forward by stepping on the corpses of their companions.

"laugh…!"

Under the cover of gunpowder smoke, a soldier had already rushed to the front tank. He estimated the time and pulled out the fuse of the explosive package. As he got closer and closer, his figure was exposed to the eyes of the little devil.

"Baga! Stop him!"

Seeing an enemy rushing forward, the infantrymen around the tank raised their guns and fired. The bullets directly smashed the soldier into sieves, and the explosive bag in his hand fell aside.

"boom!"

A moment later there was a loud bang, and a deep crater was left on the spot. Muds of dirt and meat flew into the sky, splashing on the nearest little Japs. They covered their heads and shook their heads from side to side, obviously stunned by the explosion.

The Japanese tank convoy did not act alone. There were many little devils accompanying the vehicle body to defend the tanks' blind spots.

This group of Japanese troops had very good coordination with infantry and tanks. Once they found an enemy approaching, they would spread out from behind and shoot the Chinese soldiers rushing over one by one.

A company's suicidal charge failed to shake these hedgehog-like bastard shells. Instead, they left corpses on the ground. The forward defense line could no longer be defended, and the remaining soldiers could only turn around and retreat.

This scene made Zhang Lixian's heart bleed. He had deployed more than 500 people at various strongholds on both sides of the road, but he couldn't even hold on for twenty minutes under the impact of several tanks.

"Third Battalion Commander, have the trenches been dug?"

"Brothers are working on it, soon!"

Not allowing Zhang Lixian to think too much, he immediately grabbed the adjutant beside him and shouted: "Tell the forward positions to hold on and buy time for the brothers behind!"

"Ming... understand!"

The tanks continued to advance arrogantly. After turning a bay in front, the Chinese's main position was less than 100 meters away from them.

"Boom! Boom!...Bang!"

Two artillery shells fired over, one of which missed the side and was bounced off by the armor on the side of the tank, leaving only a deep mark on the body of the tank. The other one hit the crowd, knocking out four or five young people.

The devils were blown into pieces.

But this frightened the little devil inside so much that more and more infantrymen rushed to the back of the vehicle. The commander of the platoon immediately ordered the driver to move forward with full fuel and ordered the tanks behind to line up and prepare to fire a round at the formation first.

The wave of cannonballs then rolled over at full speed.

"Damn this, you can even miss it! What do you do for food?"

I wanted to launch a sneak attack first, but I didn't expect that the two guns missed the target. The artillery platoon commander was so angry that he kept scolding his mother.

"Hurry up and reload, if you miss the target again I will kill you!" the platoon leader kicked the gunner and roared viciously.

The First Regiment of Yu Division originally had five combat artillery pieces, but three of them were destroyed in the Japanese artillery attack just now, leaving only the two in front of them.

The Japanese tanks were adjusting their formation and slowly moving forward, but no one noticed that among the corpses in front of them, a figure was moving slightly.

A wounded soldier lay on the ground and waited quietly. All his comrades around him were sacrificed, and the only thing that could still be used was a bundle of cluster grenades in his hand.

There was no fear or panic. He was seven or eight meters away in an instant. When the Japanese tank passed by, he pulled the lead without hesitation and used his last strength to pounce on the tank closest to him.

Car tracks.

"There are still enemies!"

"Be careful! Get out of the way..."

"boom!"

The surrounding Japanese soldiers had no time to stop it. The huge explosion force broke the track, and the Type 97 fell down on the spot.

The stopped tank became an excellent target, and artillerymen on distant positions took advantage of this opportunity to quickly aim and fire.

"Boom...boom!"

The Sanqi anti-tank gun accurately hit the vehicle body. The Type 97's only 25mm thick armor was easily penetrated by the 37mm armor-piercing projectile as if it were paper. With an explosion, the tank was completely scrapped.

Another anti-tank gun also hit a Type 97. The tank was seen dragging black smoke and driving slower and slower, and finally stopped unwillingly and could not move.

"Well done! This is so cool."

"Platoon leader, the little...little devil seems to have discovered us."

Two consecutive waves of shooting had exposed the position of the artillery, and the remaining three Type 97 slowly turning tank guns aimed at the positions of the two combat defense guns.

The platoon leader was so frightened that he immediately shouted to the soldiers: "No! Transfer formation..."

"It's too late, get down quickly!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

As the explosion sounded, the two anti-war artillery pieces were blown to pieces, and several artillerymen who had no time to evacuate were killed on the spot.

The threat in the distance had been eliminated. The three tanks immediately drove forward at full power, and the Japanese soldiers next to them also launched a charge.

The Yu Division's regiment fought back, and the machine gun fire on the position became more and more brutal. Soldiers were shot and killed everywhere. Both sides were trying their best to fight to the death.

The black fireworks from exploding artillery shells swept across the ground more and more intensely, and the severed limbs of the victims were scattered everywhere. The screams and the sound of gunfire mixed together to become the main theme on the battlefield.

However, after the anti-tank artillery was destroyed, the Yu Division Regiment no longer had any anti-tank weapons, and the mortars could not cause any damage to it at all.

Three Type 97 vehicles drove into the position like unstoppable bulls, followed closely by the Japs who also rushed in. Soldiers from both sides were entangled, and the entire defense line was in danger.

"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat to the town and re-defense!"

The defense line was breached, and Zhang Lixian immediately issued a retreat order. He had just asked his men to dig several wide trenches with a depth of 1.5 meters in front of the town, hoping to block the advance of tanks.

The remaining soldiers returned to the town and prepared to fight the Japs in the streets. As long as the tanks couldn't get in, anything else was fine.

At the same time, a crisis also occurred in the direction of Nantianmen. Gangzi 9420 troops fired dozens of poison gas bombs at the anti-slope position, and the rich light yellow gas filled the entire position.

"ah!!"

"Help...help..."

The soldiers of Yu Division did not have many gas masks to use, and in just a few minutes, large numbers of them fell to the mustard gas.

Erosion, redness, and swelling slowly appeared on their faces, or they might cover their necks and be unable to breathe, and their whole bodies would twitch but white foam would spit out from their mouths. The appearance of poisoning was extremely terrifying.

"Quick! Move back! Inform the military... we... ugh!"

Yu Dazhi, commander of the Second Regiment of Yu Division, who had just ran out of the command post, had not taken a few steps when he felt uncomfortable breathing. Then there was a turbulence in his stomach that made him vomit.

The officer beside him quickly took a gas mask and put it on him, and without caring about anything else, he set it up and ran towards the underground passage not far away.

At this time, the southeast wind happened to be blowing, and the poisonous gas mist was blown by the wind and spread towards the top of the mountain. More and more soldiers were affected, and those who were still alive fled back in fear. No one wanted to die there.

Inside this terrible poisonous gas.
