The commander of the 1st Infantry Battalion, Cyclops, gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and left with hundreds of soldiers.
At times like this, you can’t hesitate!
If you hesitate, you will lose!
Quickly move to the second line of defense.
At this moment, the one-eyed dragon found that a lot of people had gathered here.
"Batalion Commander Zhao Chengcai?"
"Batalion Commander Zhu Ziming?"
"Battle Commander Zhao Shoutian?"
"Battle Commander Li Cong?"
"Black whirlwind..."
"Captain Jie Dahai..."
"Are you all here?"
Cyclops, commander of the 1st Infantry Battalion, was stunned for a moment and thought he had seen it wrong.
How come everything is in place?
"The one-eyed dragon battalion commander, the commander said that the Japanese want to make a surprise attack from the front and carry out the final attack on us..."
"Let us gather on the second line of defense on the frontal battlefield. The purpose is to completely defeat this group of devils at once."
"These devils took advantage of the arrival of their bombers and fighter jets to contain our artillery reinforcement battalion. They thought they could attack us..."
"hehe!"
"Without the artillery, we can still kill them all at once!"
"The Cyclops Battalion Commander, on the left and right battlefields and the battlefield behind, only one infantry company of soldiers was left to defend and conduct reconnaissance..."
"All the remaining warriors have gathered here."
"The 2nd Infantry Battalion arrived with about 300 people."
"The third battalion of infantry arrived with about 300 people."
"The fourth battalion of infantry arrived with approximately 350 men."
"The entire cavalry battalion broke away from their horses and arrived at 400 men."
"Five heavy machine gun reinforced companies and five light machine gun reinforced companies have all arrived! The total number of people is about 1,100!"
"In addition, there are more than two hundred brothers from the tank reinforcement company..."
"The commander said that it is difficult for the artillery to provide support for us for the time being, so the 17 tanks of the tank reinforcement company will be used as fixed forts to provide us with some fire support..."
"Commander of the Cyclops Battalion, 17 tanks of the tank reinforcement company have entered the fixed trenches and are ready to attack at any time."
"Just because the space in the trenches is limited, it is difficult for the tanks to move and can only be used as forts, thus greatly saving manpower..."
"Each tank requires about 3 to 4 people to control, 17 tanks will require about 60 tank soldiers to control, and the remaining more than 100 tank soldiers will directly participate in the battle with guns in hand!"
"In the second line of defense, we gathered about 2,700 soldiers!"
"Be sure to defend the second line of defense!"
"This is basically equivalent to a fight to the death!"
Zhu Ziming, commander of the Third Infantry Battalion, took a deep breath and began to deploy the battlefield while introducing the specific situation.
"Captain One-Eyed Dragon, the commander has said that you have the final say on the frontal battlefield!"
"We will do whatever you tell us to do!"
"We all listen to you!"
After Zhu Ziming, commander of the third infantry battalion, finished speaking, other battalion commanders and company commanders also started shouting.
"I……"
Cyclops, commander of the 1st Infantry Battalion, felt waves of heavy pressure coming over him at this moment.
He, One-Eyed Dragon, had commanded an infantry battalion of less than a hundred men before!
He was suddenly asked to command nearly 3,000 people. Who could withstand this?
But the one-eyed dragon also knows that now has reached a critical moment!
Under the premise of losing the artillery reinforcements, whether the second line of defense can be held is related to the life and death of the entire Heiyun Village!
"Okay! Brothers!"
"I have nothing to say. The Japanese will soon cross the first line of defense and enter the range of our second line of defense!"
"Brothers, keep moving forward!"
"Everyone enters his own position!"
"Hit labor and management hard!"
"The commander is watching us from a distance!"
"Don't embarrass the commander!"
"Kill the devil!"
"There are no fancy tricks! Just shoot and kill the Japanese without thinking when you see them!"
Hysterical roars followed, and the pupils were filled with passion!
The battle has reached its most tense moment!
This is also the most important turning point in this battle!
Ten thousand Japanese soldiers defeated 2,700 soldiers from the reinforced battalion!
Suppressive fire?
Geographical coverage?
It’s all there!
Our side: five heavy machine gun companies (partially damaged), five light machine gun companies (partially damaged), most of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th infantry battalions, cavalry battalion, tank reinforcement company... total number of people, 2,000
About seven hundred people.
Japs: The incomplete version of the 2nd Infantry Regiment, the incomplete version of the 3rd Infantry Regiment, the Engineer Regiment, the Cavalry Regiment, and the Baggage Regiment. The total number of Japs is about 10,000.
Own firepower: about 100 Maxim/Type 92 heavy machine guns, about 350 Czech/Crooked light machine guns, about 1,000 M1 Garand semi-automatic rifles, 38 large cover rifles/98k Mauser sniper rifles plus
There are about more than a thousand guns together, about 30 grenade launchers, 13 38t light tanks, 2 Type 95 ultra-light tanks, 2 Type 97 medium tanks...
That’s all the firepower of 2,700 people!
There are 100 heavy machine guns and more than 300 light machine guns...
Fire coverage, no big problem!
As for the Japanese side, a simple estimate is: about 70 Type 92 heavy machine guns, about 200 crooked light machine guns, 220 Type 89 50mm grenades, 20 70mm Type 92 infantry guns, and 10 37mm
Anti-tank guns, tens of thousands of 38-type rifles...
The number of Japanese light and heavy machine guns is less than that of the reinforced battalion.
However, the Japanese have more grenades, and are assisted by 20 70mm Type 92 infantry guns and 10 37mm anti-tank guns.
The number of people is not worth mentioning in front of the Maxim heavy machine gun.
No matter how many Japs there are, they are just targets...
In a battlefield collision of this level, what matters more is the PK with heavy firepower!
For example, the number of light and heavy machine guns, the number of artillery...
The artillery reinforcement battalion of the reinforced battalion is now unable to directly bombard, otherwise it will definitely be bombarded by Japanese bombers.
So now, on the frontal defense line, only the 17 tanks of the tank reinforcement company can be used!
…
Ten thousand Japanese soldiers are happily crossing the first line of defense.
"吆西!"
"The Xia army without artillery support is like a tiger without teeth or a cat without claws! Not worth mentioning!"
"Our powerful imperial warriors have directly defeated their first line of defense with just one charge!"
"In this way, no matter how many lines of defense they have, they are destined to be trampled by our empire's locust army!"
"Sato-kun, what did you learn from this battle?"
"The commander of our division intends to promote you."
"This is about whether you can have an extra star on your shoulders!"
Sanae Esaki, commander of the Japanese 40th Division, stuck his command knife in the ground with an arrogant look on his face, and then placed his hands on it, with a hint of pride on his face.
