When Captain Heimiya Kailine saw an artillery shell explode not far from his position, he began to feel nervous.

The power of large-caliber artillery shells can make the ground tremble even from hundreds of meters away.

Watanabe Gate, who just now was saying that the Japanese army did not have cannons, when the cannonballs fell.

They still couldn’t believe it: “Is this a cannon of the national army?”

Reality immediately proved it.

The huge explosion and the flying stumps all proved that this was really an artillery shell from the national army.

Starting from this shell, the bombing never stopped.

Since the Battle of Songhu, the 16th Artillery Regiment has never fought so well.

During this period of time, their positions were always just established, and after firing a few cannons, they were overtaken by Japanese planes.

Machine gun fire, aerial bombing!

If the artillery position is unable to continue firing, there will naturally be no results.

But these two days are different.

First, the Japanese artillery positions were directly blown up, and then the Japanese cavalry and tanks were blown up.

What was bombed today was the Japanese infantry, many infantry.

At this time, they did not know that what was ahead was an infantry detachment of Japanese soldiers.

But observers in the air estimated that there were at least 10,000 Japs.

The Japs with more than 10,000 people are the best targets for the artillery regiment at this time.

Captain Shifu Chongwen heard the report that the mortars and infantry artillery that he had just mobilized from the entire regiment had been destroyed.

The National Army's large-caliber artillery shells ransacked the entire artillery position, and there was not a single Japanese artillery left on the position.

Artillery blast! Infantry charge!

It was originally the attacking side's combat method, but now the Chongteng detachment has implemented it in reverse.

Captain Shi Fu Chongwen ordered at this time: "Gu Maotian Brigade! Attack!"

"Hai!" Captain Furumota Yuxiang agreed and immediately commanded the team.

It knew in its heart that the national army's defense line had just been bombed for a while, and it definitely did not achieve the goal of complete destruction.

But the cannon on our side has been blown up.

It is impossible to continue the artillery bombardment of the national defense lines.

And now it is not a matter of bombing or not bombing the national army; it is a matter of the national army's artillery bombing the imperial army.

Instead of being so passive and being bombed all the time, it's better to take the initiative and attack.

Captain Yusho Furumota thought of the combat effectiveness of the national army and felt that there should be no problem in attacking at this time.

So under the bombardment of the National Army's artillery fire, the Japanese infantry began to charge.

Their move directly destroyed the Eighty-seventh Division on the defense line: These devils braved artillery fire to attack?

Yes! They really saw it right. The Japanese just braved artillery fire and rushed over from a distance.

The charging Gu Maota brigade soon tasted the sweetness: the position where they were preparing to attack was under artillery bombardment.

But when they rushed to the position three hundred meters in front of the defense line, no shells fell.

Even though I paid a heavy price, it was worth it if I could avoid being bombarded by artillery fire.

Otherwise, if you continue to wait where you are, there may be more casualties.

That's what Captain Yusho Furumoda thought. At this distance, he just escaped the bombing of the howitzer.

Immediately, the defenders were greeted by heavy machine guns and machine gun fire.

This is really like leaving the tiger's den and entering the wolf's den!

However, Captain Yusho Furumota was mentally prepared for this and immediately ordered the machine guns to establish positions to fight back.

Order the grenade launchers of each squad to fight back!

Order the infantry to continue charging!

The entire group has reached this point, with no way out and can only continue to attack.

Captain Katorizaemon led more than twenty Japanese soldiers and rushed to the front of the team.

The frontal defender was the 1st Battalion of the 517th Regiment of the 259th Brigade of the 87th Division of the National Army. Battalion Commander Jiang Zhe looked at the Japanese who were charging up.

He ordered loudly: "Heavy machine gun, machine gun, hit me hard!"

"Da da da" gunfire sounded, and the charging Japanese bowed their waists lower.

The Japs like Katorizaemon's team know clearly: they can only move forward and cannot look back at all.

The captain had just announced the order: "Those who retreat will be killed!"

Captain Furumota Yuxiang had no choice but to issue such an order. Before the war started, he never thought that such a situation would happen.

When Captain Shi Fu Chongwen gave it the order, he said it very easily: "Your Excellency, the captain of the detachment, ordered us to restore the second line of defense today."

At that time, the four captains of the Second Infantry Regiment unanimously accepted the mission.

Captain Furumota Yuxiang still fought hard and finally snatched the first offensive task from the other three brigades.

Now it just wants to slap itself in the face a few times: to make you want to make meritorious deeds!

At that time, the entire regiment, from top to bottom, believed that this battle would be very easy.

After going to the battlefield, it discovered:

Today's attack was extremely unsuccessful. The Chinese army unexpectedly bombed them with heavy artillery.

After the next charge to the distance, the machine guns and heavy machine guns of the national army fired very fiercely.

This is different from what was planned.

Totally different!

It was also at this time that Captain Furumota Yuxiang began to reflect: If the national army is really that easy to fight.

The 11th Infantry Division did not need to call for reinforcements at all, and they called them in such a hurry.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that I have been fooled, and the entire Chongteng detachment has been fooled.

It's a pity that even if it realizes this at this time, it can't retreat anymore.

The arrow is on the string and must be fired!

It’s too hasty! It’s too hasty!

No matter what Captain Komota Yusho thinks now, he can only face reality.

The mortars in the national army were bombarding the group's grenade launchers and heavy machine guns.

It had already seen Japanese soldiers being blown up in the air and grenades flying in the air.

Obviously this machine gun position is finished!

In this case, if you can't rush forward in the shortest time, you won't have the chance to charge later.

It was precisely because of this consideration that it issued an order: the entire brigade could only advance, not retreat.

Watanabe Gate no longer felt at all relaxed at this time. When he first landed ashore, he thought proudly that he was here to gain military exploits.

Now, it just wants to go home!

The battlefield is too dangerous, and Watanabe Gate can still feel scared, which makes him very lucky.

He saw with his own eyes that a squad of more than fifty Japanese soldiers were killed by a shell at the same time.

Most of the corpses were broken into pieces, blown to pieces, and just mixed in the soil, remaining here forever.

Now Watanabe Gate was forced to charge forward by his squad leader.

Just when I was crawling on the spot, I felt the ground shaking violently, making it very uncomfortable.

Next, Captain Yamamoto Kazusuke ordered an attack.
Chapter completed!
