Chapter 258: Devil's Prepared Counterattack

More than a dozen Japanese soldiers shouted in shock: "For His Majesty the Emperor!"

He rushed towards the few national soldiers who had just rushed into the trench.

Before they could rush in, Chinese soldiers rushed into the trenches one after another.

In the blink of an eye, these Japanese soldiers were surrounded by people, all of them soldiers of the national army, holding rifles and staring at them eagerly.

Captain Jiro Koizumi saw that his Japanese soldiers were scared, so he waved the command knife in his hand.

Screaming: "Kill in time!"

Staff Sergeant Tsukamoto Hayato shouted reflexively: "For His Majesty the Emperor!"

He moved his steps again and rushed towards Yan Shizhang.

Company Commander Yan had no intention of fighting it with a bayonet. He raised his pistol and said, "Bang!"

The soldiers following Company Commander Yan rushed over shouting: "Kill!"

Asano Hinata's team's efforts to intercept the 1st Battalion collapsed faster than Koizumi Jiro's team.

The first battalion commander, Gu Zuo, saw a team of brothers rushing up to the defense line on the side.

He said hello and didn’t look back;

Instead, they changed directions and attacked in depth towards the Yang family residence.

When Commander Zhang Lingfu went to the defense line, Commander Yan asked for instructions: "Commander! They are attacking forward!

What should we do?”

"Leave one company to hold the defense line, and the rest of the team will continue to attack!"

For today's attack, Luo Zhuoying did not specify where the attack would end.

In fact, he didn't know how far he could attack.

Although the strategic goal is to completely annihilate the 11th Japanese Infantry Division, this is only one division.

It is not a brigade like yesterday, and yesterday's Japanese brigade was already exhausted, and its combat effectiveness was severely reduced.

The Japanese's 11th Infantry Division is different. Yesterday they were still working hard to attack and expand their territory.

The Japanese soldiers in this division were holding their heads high.

Wei Mingyang's regiment broke through the Japanese defense line ten minutes after starting the attack, and the 305th regiment on the side also broke through the Japanese defense line.

As long as a gap is created in a line of defense, the entire line of defense is not far from collapse.

Otherwise, there would be no such idiom as a thousand-mile embankment, destroyed by an ant nest.

On the other side of Zhang Lingfu's 305th Regiment was the attack direction of the 306th Regiment. They all had the same brigade commander and the same division.

Zhang Lingfu also showed off his style today. He imitated Wei Mingyang's regiment and attacked the Japanese defense line from the flank along the Japanese defense line.

Under attack from two sides, the 306th Regiment quickly broke through the frontal defense line.

Under this domino effect, the Japanese infantry defense line collapsed.

The dozen or so Japanese soldiers sent by Squadron Leader Yoshio Ando have not yet reached the defense line of Jiro Koizumi's team.

Koizumi Jiro's team has been completely wiped out.

Ryotaro Shinohara was in a dilemma: Should he continue to move forward with more than ten Japanese soldiers from the squadron headquarters?

Or go back to the squadron headquarters?

Just looking at the thousands of national soldiers in the distance, it knew that rushing out now would be like shaking a tree like a fly.

Before Ryotaro Shinohara and more than a dozen Japanese from the squadron headquarters could turn around, they were caught by squadron leader Ito Junosuke.

There are more than 180 Japanese in Ito's whole squadron, plus Shinohara Ryotaro and the other ten Japanese.

With a force of two hundred Japs, Squadron Leader Ito Junosuke thought he could do something.

Without any hesitation, it loudly ordered Kita Chiya's team to attack immediately, with Kita's team in front and the entire squadron following.

Captain Ito Junosuke wanted to take advantage of the fact that the national army was not yet firmly established to restore the defense line.

Its idea is very good, and perhaps its attack on Wei Mingyang's special operations mixed regiment may be successful.

After all, this group is actually not much stronger than the security group.

However, Captain Ito Junosuke attacked Zhang Lingfu's 305th Regiment.

This was the elite of the national army. Zhang Lingfu heard a report that a squadron of Japanese soldiers was attacking him.

Immediately ordered the entire first battalion to mobilize, not only launched a counterattack against the Japanese, but also outflanked them.

He is going to make dumplings for this Japanese team that dares to attack.

When Kita Tomoya's team launched the attack, there was only one company of national troops in front of them.

When it was entangled with Yan Shizhang's company, the entire Ito Junosuke squadron pressed forward.

For a while, the Japs had an advantage in numbers, and the pressure was extremely high.

Just when the company commander ordered the entire company to defend resolutely, gunfire suddenly came from the side of Ito Junosuke's squadron.

There are also shells exploding in the middle of its ranks.

This is the mortar fire from the 305th Regiment.

The mortars had just blasted the trenches that the Japanese had fortified, but they did not have much effect.

But in the wild, it is still very powerful for fighting in the field.

The Japanese have grenades, and the 305th Regiment has mortars.

The most important thing is that the 305th Regiment sent a full battalion to attack the retreat of Ito Junosuke's squadron in three directions.

Attacked from three sides, Captain Ito Junosuke suddenly didn't know what to do.

At this time, it thought of withdrawing from the battle: but its retreat was blocked.

Unable to find a suitable direction to break out of the encirclement, Squadron Leader Ito Shunosuke could only order the soldiers to establish a defensive line on the spot and hold on.

Zhang Lingfu came up with his whole regiment at this time, and they still had to fight stubbornly when they saw the Japanese.

Another battalion was immediately thrown in, and Ito's squadron, which was already struggling to defend itself, could no longer bear it.

Squadron leader Ito Junosuke had no choice but to choose the path he had always taken to break out of the encirclement.

At this time, the 1st Battalion and 3rd Company, which had taken its rear route, just set up their machine guns and fired.

Not attacking but only defending, Ito's squadron, which wanted to break out of the encirclement in a hurry, couldn't break through at all.

The team of two hundred people has been reduced by more than half at this time.

Sergeant Ryotaro Shinohara understood: They will not survive today.

If they continue to wait like this, all the national troops will rush forward, and they will die even more miserably.

So Shinohara Ryotaro picked up his rifle and led the team with only four Japanese soldiers left to launch a desperate charge.

At this time, Squadron Leader Ito Junosuke also gathered the remaining nearly 100 Japs from the entire squadron.

Following them, they rushed towards the third company blocking the road.

Wang Mingli, the third company commander, watched the Japanese swarm towards his defense line.

The machine gunner was ordered to keep firing, and the entire company was ordered to prepare grenades.

When the enemy was close to fifty meters away, he threw the grenade.

Two rounds of grenades were thrown out, and the soldiers of the third company rushed out with rifles in hand.

The desperate game initiated by Ito Junosuke's squadron was originally a desperate attempt to survive.

Of course, what they want most is that the national troops blocking the road will be scared away by their charging momentum, or that they will directly fight with their bayonets.

However, the national army on the opposite side did not respect military ethics at all: not only did they keep firing with machine guns, they also threw grenades to explode.
