The defeat at the front, the setbacks in consecutive days of attacks, and the huge casualties among his men made the Japanese Major General Matsyu who was commanding him very angry. After punishing several frontline captains who thought their command was incompetent, he personally went to the front to supervise the battle. He did not believe in weapons.
The backward Chinese army is so capable of blocking their aircraft, artillery and tanks.
Songyou organized a new round of more violent attacks. Seeing the towering railway bridge as if it was shaking in the artillery fire, he couldn't help showing a proud look and ordered his subordinates to launch an intensive attack as soon as the artillery fire stopped, and he would also command
This time he was determined to win, and he had to personally supervise the soldiers to seize the Chinese position.
The commander next to him reminded: "Your Excellency General, it is too close to the Chinese position and it is unsafe. Can you take cover?"
"Hmph, the reason why you failed in many attacks is because you don't understand the actual situation at the front. Only at the front can you command the troops in time to win!" Songyou scolded: "When the attack starts, my command headquarters has to move forward.
"
"I am willing to go forward on behalf of the general." The commander of the regiment asked worriedly.
"The Chinese do not have accurate and long-range firepower. I must see our Japanese warriors occupy the enemy's positions with my own eyes." Matsuyu said. Seeing the attack begin, he immediately watched closely with a telescope.
Facing the impending more ferocious Japanese attack, the commander of the third battalion also went to the forefront to command and deploy. He used binoculars to observe the enemy's movements.
Su Yuan braved artillery fire and came to the front to convey the regiment commander's order. The third battalion commander said to him: "Go back and tell the regiment commander that as long as I am here, the position will be there."
"Yes," Su Yuan responded but did not want to leave immediately. Seeing that the enemy's artillery fire began to extend, this was not the time to leave, and the enemy was about to launch an attack. Su Yuanji wanted to stay and participate in this battle.
He took off his gun and prepared it, "Why don't you leave?" the third battalion commander shouted as soon as he saw him preparing to fight.
"Captain Jin, I am a sharpshooter. This is the time for me to show off my skills. Besides, my news has been brought, so let me fight." Su Yuan requested.
"Humph, it's too late to leave, the Japanese have already started to attack." Battalion Commander Jin replied. He no longer paid attention to Su Yuan, but observed the enemy's situation with his binoculars.
A bright light flashed in the distance. Battalion Commander Jin immediately adjusted his telescope and saw a Japanese commander nearly a thousand meters away looking at the same direction.
"Damn it, look at me, Su Yuan, aren't you a sharpshooter? Give me a shot." Battalion Commander Jin ordered.
"Yes." Su Yuan responded immediately. Before he could ask about the target, Battalion Commander Jin handed him the telescope and said, "Two o'clock direction, distance 900."
Su Yuan had just caught the target and stuck out his tongue when he saw it, "Battalion Commander, the Japs head is as big as a corn kernel under the muzzle of the gun from such a distance. Not to mention that the aim is inaccurate, even my gun can't reach it."
Arrived."
"Who told you to aim? You really want to hit him. I just wanted to see that kid angry and asked you to take a shot. Your shot has a gauge of 1,800. Just hit him with enough force to scare him." said Battalion Commander Jin.
Su Yuan saw a soldier beside him holding a captured Japanese 38 rifle. He licked his lips and thought about it, then immediately grabbed one and wanted to jump out of the position.
"What are you doing?" Battalion Commander Jin grabbed him and asked.
"The effective range of the 38 rifle is 800 meters. I can get close to 50 meters from our front. I'll give it a try." Su Yuan replied.
"Do you really want to hit me?" Battalion Commander Jin shouted.
"Almost, I'm about five points sure." Su Yuan replied.
"Okay, I will command the troops for a counterattack later. How about I give you another 200 meters?" Battalion Commander Jin immediately paid attention.
