Chapter 46 The Fiery Dawn
At 6 a.m., the earth seemed to roar like a monster, high-pitched and fierce! It also seemed like there were groups of monsters about to rush out of the darkness before dawn.
The Beiyang Army soldiers were awakened by the sound of engines of hundreds of tanks and armored vehicles. They looked at the defense line defended by the "Chinese Defense Forces" in horror, guessing in their hearts what would kill people there.
Since the war started, they have seen a lot of new things in the past two days.
There are snipers wearing colored cloth camouflage uniforms, and there are large-caliber mortars that tremble when exploded, and shrapnel would fly around the ground. There are also "Men Erye's fire gourd" encountered during the charge. Once it is sprayed out, a large area of brothers can be burned into charcoal.
So, even if the soldiers have sucked enough opium, they are still trying to find a place to hide when charging.
In the haze, the lantern in the hidden part was lit by someone, and under the dim light, there were a pair of terrified eyes. Although they had just woken up, their eyes were still covered with booze.
They grabbed the guns one by one and looked out from the shooting port of the concealed part.
But the vast field cannot see anything worth seeing. In the opposite bunkers that are hated and helplessly protected by sandbags, there is no movement. In the sky, the last few clouds that have not dissipated have already appeared a rosy color.
"Boom..."
It seemed like a loud thunder rolling across the clear sky, flying from far to near.
"Look, what the hell is that? It flies so fast!"
It seemed as if a few lightning flashed in the sky, and then several planes that were as fast as swallows swept across the sky. They pointed their fingers sharply, attracting everyone to follow his constantly moving hands to chase after him.
At this time, the whitened sky became a bright background, and when the planes flew past, they threw down a few flares. The darkest moment before dawn on the ground was illuminated.
The bright light sprinkled in the sky made the ground look pale. As the sturdy "saber-a" figure flashed across the front, the "Ben Lei ii" with a higher-height twin-engine tilted its arms and thrust it down from the sky.
“Woo…”
As the sound of the plane diving became closer and closer, the soldiers of the Beiyang Army who had never been bombed for several consecutive days did not know what those were. They tried to open their eyes, open their mouths, and carefully search for the figure of the plane in the sky.
"Swish..."
Several smaller flying objects, bright tongues of flames at the tail, and feathered tail smoke dragged behind them.
"It seems like the monkey who was let go of the New Year..."
This is the last sigh of praise from the soldiers in the hidden department.
The rockets shot from "Peng Lei ii" exploded continuously on the civil and wooden bunker. The heavy explosion sounded shattered the lanterns in the civil fortifications, and the people in the bunker fell into darkness in an instant. The impact of the explosion knocked everyone to the ground, and even their breathing had to stop.
The series of explosions seemed to be a signal. The Beiyang soldiers who were lucky enough not to be killed were staring at their bloody eyes. In a faint red light, they saw more planes appearing in the sky.
They fired a series of bullets, shells, and dropped piles of bombs...
At this time, the trembling of the ground seemed to be experiencing the strongest earthquake. No one could stand, so he had to curl up in every safer place.
At this time, the last trace of darkness at dawn had completely dissipated. When the sun had just revealed a small horn, the surviving Beiyang soldiers saw something even more terrifying.
On the plains of Shandong, groups of tanks and infantry fighting vehicles lined up in an attack formation, and behind them were group of Marines joining the counterattack.
Under the threat of the officers' pistols, some Beiyang soldiers raised their rifles to resist. However, the bullets fired by snipers from time to time would make any Beiyang officer regret their actions.
During the short stops, the long gun barrels of the tank gun kept spraying out long flames. On both sides of the tank were shooting with 12.7mm machine guns. For the time being, before the "tank nanny" was equipped, the task of protecting both sides of the tank was carried out by them.
Needless to ask, under such a fierce offensive, let alone the Beiyang Army, even when the German army did not have forceful air confrontation, they could only fall into unilateral beatings.
"The Chinese don't beat the Chinese...but our patience is limited..."
The hundreds of tanks and infantry fighting vehicles spread out on the ground were almost memorable when they were moving forward after the rain, on the road that was not so easy to move. The nice and moving female voice was still constantly "talking" about "talking" for days and nights, and the Beiyang soldiers could almost memorize.
It was not until then that they understood how they should understand what others said, "Our patience is limited." When their anger broke out, it gave people a completely destructive feeling.
When the tank's tracks crushed the trenches of Beiyang soldiers, they watched the Beiyang soldiers who were shaking and approaching their trenches could no longer bear the torture of this fear. They threw down their weapons and jumped out of the trenches like crazy to run away.
About in their hearts, they want to leave these terrifying things, the farther they want.
However, there is no safe place outside the trenches. Tracers that shine red, like flying insects, that have covered the earth with tracer bullets that have passed through the field like flying insects. At this time, jumping out of the trenches is undoubtedly a suicide act.
Xu Yingjie, who had already determined the path he should take, hid in a woods and watched the opponent's attack. At this time, he finally understood how the opponent dared to challenge the Japanese. He also understood why the other party's surrender conditions were so tough.
"Who can stop such an army?"
When I was admiring, I secretly felt glad in my heart that I had chosen the way out for myself and my brothers.
If the battles in the past have never made him afraid, today he is really afraid. Compared to the fear in the hearts of ordinary soldiers, as a student at Baoding Military Academy, he has seen more tricks.
The places where the planes bombarded and strafed were all stationed troops on the Beiyang Army's defense line or concentrated weapons. Especially when they attacked, the targets of bombardment were not only accurate but also dense. The Beiyang Army, after spending tens of thousands of casualties, the line of defense composed of civil and industrial fire points and trenches, which was built, almost completely collapsed in an instant.
Groups of tanks and infantry fighting vehicles quickly cleared their respective targets, and no excessively fierce battles occurred. The Beiyang soldiers who had been trapped in the trenches and saved their lives were now coming out of the trenches, holding their hands up in groups to surrender to the infantry of the Marine Corps behind the armored cluster.
At this time, several jeeps were jogging on the battlefield where the fierce battle had just ended. Their target was the place where Xu Yingjie and his German-Armed Cavalry Regiment were hidden.
"I order my brothers to get on the horse and they will come and pick us up!"
Xu Yingjie issued an order to his subordinates. Even if he surrendered, he would not want to make himself and his brothers look down upon.
With a "crunch", the jeep stopped steadily next to the woods, and the car-mounted machine gun on the car pointed at the place where the horse's hooves came from the woods.
Xu Yingjie rode his tall horse to the place near the jeep outside the woods. Opposite was a group of infantry from the "Chinese Defense Forces" who were most of them getting off the car and holding the weapons in their hands to guard the surroundings.
The leader was probably an officer who saw him, and he came over a few steps and saluted casually. Xu Yingjie also jumped off his horse, pulled his military uniform, and gave a solemn greeting and answering.
"Yes, it's just that today I will take my brothers to a bright road!"
"Is it Captain Xu? Our Commander Chen asked me to welcome you and your brothers. Welcome you..."

Xu Yingjie and the people who came to greet him were sitting in a jeep and rushed towards the defense line that the Marines refused. Following him was his German-Armed Cavalry regiment, which had almost been injured.
At this time, he raised his head and looked around.
At this time, the morning light in the sky completely dissipated, and the breakthrough assault cluster rotation direction was completed, and they were arranged into marching columns to run towards their respective targets. Behind were the 75mm self-propelled cannons of the support group, as well as the 120mm heavy close-kill guns that used jeeps as the chassis.
In the sky, there are the figures of patrol fleets of planes, and no matter how high is the airship that looks like a mountain. "Hawkeye" still slowly rows the "8" shape in the sky, but the news they reported was already a few dozen kilometers away.
On the ground, armored transport vehicles, jeeps and stretchers were painted on the red cross and began to rescue the wounded. Not only were the soldiers of the "Chinese Defense Forces" properly taken care of, but the injured Beiyang soldiers would also be taken care of.
At this time, an airship with a red cross in the sky was slowly landing. It was used to transport the seriously injured numbers on the battlefield back to the rear hospital.
The Marines had already begun to escort prisoners to clean the battlefield, with scattered guns and weapons being brought together and waiting to be transported back to the rear.
In better situations, Japanese and German weapons will be carefully cleaned, oiled, and placed in the weapon warehouse. The remaining miscellaneous weapons will become raw materials in the steel mill.
Xu Yingjie, sitting in the car, looked around like a tourist.
Today, I saw a lot of things, and these formed some enlightenment in his mind.
"We are all Chinese, and Chinese don't hit Chinese..."
