Chenjialing, the circular fortifications built by the Seventh Company, was an eye-opener for Gao Wancheng.

Gao Wancheng was also an expert in defense, but the fortifications he built were all linear, usually with three front and rear trenches dug. Each trench was at least 1.5 meters deep, and key positions were covered with earth.

The seventh company's defenses are much more complicated. A simple summary is three horizontal and four vertical, echelon configuration.

The distance between the first and second lines of defense is 80 meters, and the distance between the second and third lines is 150 meters. Two longitudinal communication trenches were dug behind the third line leading to the reverse slope.

Each horizontal line of defense is not straight, but curved, with twists and turns in the middle.

There are four longitudinal communication trenches between each line of defense, which are covered with a large amount of pine wood. Above the pine wood are branches, and above the branches are the extra covering soil from digging the trenches.

The longitudinal communication trenches are not straight either. A hole for hiding soldiers is dug into it every other section. The three sides are covered with three layers of pine wood and soil, just like a sandwich cake. The shells hitting such a hole for hiding soldiers will even pop out.

There are not only caves for hiding soldiers in the fortifications, but also a large number of shooting positions. The shooting positions are much shallower than the trenches and are slanted in shape. People can lie down on them and shoot, which has a certain degree of protection.

There are also a large number of cat-ear holes in the horizontal trenches that are large enough for individual soldiers. They can store ammunition and supplies, and can also temporarily hide people. The top of the hole is more than one meter above the ground, and it will be okay for artillery shells to explode on it.

The Seventh Company was like a groundhog, digging and digging almost non-stop. If there was enough time, they would dig more until the Japanese came over.

Gao Wancheng called the first company commander and several platoon commanders together and said to them:

"Comrades, have you seen the fortifications of the Seventh Company? When you have time, learn more about their defense experience from Platoon Leader Li and Platoon Leader Zhang of the Seventh Company, and promote it to the whole battalion when you return!"

Through communication with Li Qing and others, Gao Wancheng found that the Seventh Company had many successful experiences worth learning from, and he admired Chu Xiong very much now.

A company can establish such a large base area and hold it. This alone is worthy of his humility and learning.

“This set of fortifications is quite good, but it’s tiring!”

The platoon leader couldn't help but complain that the soldiers were so tired just cutting down trees that day that they couldn't stand upright.

"Comrades, the more you sweat before the war, the less you will bleed during the war! The comrades of the Seventh Company have been digging trenches. Have you ever seen them complain about suffering and tiredness?"

After Gao Wancheng finished speaking, he had an expression of hatred for steel.

When the platoon commanders saw that the battalion commander was about to lose his temper, they hurriedly went to do their own business. Judging from the situation reported by Company Commander Chu, the Japanese would arrive in one day at the latest.

The main force of the Seventh Company led by Chu Xiong has left Liu Town, and the entire Liu Town has begun to mobilize. The villages have begun to hide food, make dry food, and be ready to evacuate at any time.

"Chu, they are civilians. According to the Japan-Japan Mutual Treaty, the Japanese will not do anything to them! This will cause a flow of refugees and is a violation of the legitimate rights of civilians!"

Aaliya, this foreign girl, started causing trouble again. Chu Xiong was very speechless when he heard it. It would be damned if the Japanese abide by some bullshit "Geneva Convention".

"Alia, you have never seen what these beasts have done. I will not leave the people in their hands!"

"I advise you to shut your beautiful mouth from now on, otherwise I won't mind plugging it for you with my stinky socks!"

Chu Xiong was very annoyed by these self-righteous reporters, who failed to accomplish more than they did.

Aaliyah wanted to protest, but John stopped her and made a silent gesture.

John is a soldier. The Japanese's brutal attack on their flying formation made him full of hatred towards the Japanese. Several of his comrades who were flying fighter jets were killed by the Japanese. If he hadn't been lucky, they would have been shattered into pieces.

Already.

"Chu, I am also a soldier. Please allow me to join your battle. I will kill the son of a bitch!"

Chu Xiong didn't waste any time and just threw him a Jin-made Thompson submachine gun.

"Protect them both, you are the last line of defense!"

"yes!"

John took the gun and returned the military salute of the Goshawk Kingdom very carefully.

In Chu Xiong's view, agreeing to a soldier's request to participate in the battle is the greatest respect for him.

Chu Xiong sent the cavalry out. Their mission was to go back to the rear of the Japanese. After the Japanese launched a counterattack, they were responsible for chasing and killing them.

With the strength he currently possesses, it is very difficult to annihilate a large group of Japs. His bottom line is to defeat and severely injure the Japs!

After the cavalry platoon was discharged, Chu Xiong still had four infantry platoons, a machine gun platoon, and an artillery platoon, with a total strength of nearly 400 people.

He must be prepared for the worst-case scenario that the Chenjialing direction cannot withstand the Japanese. If this is the case, he will let the Japanese into the base area, strengthen the walls and clear the fields, and then slowly eliminate them through guerrilla warfare.

All Chuxiong can do now is wait in the mountains and forests!

Outside Liu Town, Zhou Weiguo's Falcon Special Forces team was also waiting. He was waiting for a chance to hit.

"Captain, do we really have to fight for the guy named Chu? That's a group of devils!"

"Wang Han, you have to remember that we are not fighting for any one person, but for this country and this nation!"

"Wang Han, if you are scared, you can leave by yourself. He cannot spread such negative remarks!"

"Captain, what do you think of me, Wang Han? When have I ever been afraid of Japanese soldiers?"

"Then show your true ability. Since you have received the mission from Chu Xiong, you must complete it at any cost. Don't let the Eighth Route Army look down on you!"

"Okay, just watch, let's show those mud-legged people what special elites are!"

"Wang Han, you lead a team to use anti-tank rifles to knock down the Japs' first bastard box. You must time it well. It happens to be when the Japs transport vehicles pass under the artillery. I will personally deliver the Japs.

Take a dirt plane!"

"Remember, retreat after fighting. Don't be reluctant to fight. We are still far away from Chenjialing. We have plenty of time to play with them!"

After Zhou Weiguo's deployment was completed, Wang Han left with a team. He was going to set up an ambush position.
Chapter completed!
