All of a sudden, Lynsey's fierce battle began!

Under the separate command of Zhang Dabiao and Shen Qun, the two battalions of Zhang Dabiao and Shen Qun, who were responsible for attacking the area north of Linxi County, attacked the Japanese defensive positions north of Linxi County with a pincer pattern.

Due to the fact that the Japanese army dug a large number of trenches in the defensive positions north of the county seat, many barbed wire fences were pulled in front of the trenches, forming a tight defense system.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

"Da !!"

......

The gunfire first unfolded fiercely in the area north of the county seat, and the soldiers on both sides engaged in a close firefight!

"Made, the little devil still has this hand! It seems that the devil commander who guards Linxi is a master of defense! Zhang Dabiao was lying behind a dirt slope, holding a telescope to observe the battle situation in front of him, scolding and swearing.

Even Zhang Dabiao didn't expect that the devil defenders in Linxi County actually built good fortifications.

Although Wang Chengzhu's artillery bombardment lasted about 10 minutes, plowing the artillery fire of the Japanese defensive positions in the area north of Linxi County over and over again, it was still blocked by the Japanese army's heavy fire when the troops launched an offensive.

This shows that the devils in the trenches must have built a large number of anti-artillery holes, and Wang Chengzhu's artillery bombardment may not have much damage to the devil defenders.

Sure enough, in Zhang Dabiao's sight, hundreds of people in the vanguard of the first battalion quickly encountered the fire counterattack of the little devils.

Because the Japanese defenders pulled barbed wire in front of the trench positions and planted some mines, the attacking battalion suffered many casualties.

"Battalion commander, I'm afraid the devil on the other side is a little difficult! If we continue to fight like this, I'm afraid that our battalion will suffer more than 100 casualties! While Zhang Dabiao was thinking, a front-line commander and fighter soon ran back in a hurry and reported.

Zhang Dabiao said in a condensed voice: "Let the brothers fight steadily!" Don't rush in! I'll move all the mortar detachments to the front line, and I'll cover you with low artillery fire in the back! In addition, I immediately contacted Wang Chengzhu and concentrated most of the artillery to suppress the Japanese fire on the position. Infantry and artillery coordination, when the time comes, you will step on the explosive point and charge me up. ”。

"Understood, battalion commander."

At this time, the attack of the vanguard troops of the 1st and 2nd Battalions was not progressing well.

The Japanese troops under Hattori Musashi were all Japanese soldiers from Kyushu, and most of them were miners and were good at digging trenches.

In addition, Hattori Musashi was born in the Wa State Military Academy and was good at defending and attacking fortifications, and when he learned that Li Yunlong was attacking Chifeng, the old devil had already seized the time to build the fortifications of Linxi County.

When the Japanese army in Udan Town was defeated and fled north, bringing the news that Li Yunlong's troops had gone north, Hattori Musashi seized the time to repair more fortifications. When Li Yunlong led the troops to the city of Linxi County, Hattori Musashi already had half of his confidence.

"Kill, kill, hit me hard! Suppress the enemy offensive and kill! For the sake of the Empire, for the sake of Your Majesty, kill! ”

The Japanese army in charge of the defensive position north of Linxi County had nearly one infantry brigade, more than 1,000 devils. The commander of the devil is Jiro Dino, the first squadron leader of the general under Hattori Musashi, and this guy is also the younger brother of Dino Zhen.

Although he and Hattori Musashi's chief of staff, Di Ye, are really brothers, but Di Ye Jiro himself is also from the Japanese Army Military Academy, and he is also good at the defense of the city.

In the face of the powerful Li Yunlong's troops to the city, the key defensive positions were handed over to Dino Jiro by Hattori Musashi.

At this time, Jiro Dino hid in a hidden bunker and observed the battle situation in front of him anytime and anywhere through the observation hole. absolutely

Jiro Dino, the old devil, is also a madman, and the bunker headquarters where he is located is located at the back of the position, not far from the front.

"Sir, the front-line trenches are asking for artillery support. The enemy used artillery fire to suppress it, and the soldiers in the trenches suffered heavy casualties! ”

In the bunker headquarters, Jiro Dino's squadron adjutant shouted at Jiro Dino with a field phone in his hand.

The cannon roared, and the adjutant could only be heard by shouting.

Jiro Dino frowned, and in his binoculars, the old devil saw Wang Chengzhu's artillery fire suppressing the Japanese trenches.

In the trenches, the soldiers of the new regiment that had just come out to attack the attacking regiment with ferocious firepower made Jiro Dino unfamiliar with the fighting style of the new regiment and the contempt caused before was gone at this time.

"Eight Tooth Road!"

Di Ye Jiro muttered to himself in his heart, "It is worthy of a strong enemy unit that has eaten half of the strength of the 3rd Division, this kind of artillery fire and infantry cooperation, even if it is a front-line Imperial Field Division unit, it can be compared." ”

"Ask the captain, artillery reinforcements! Use the artillery reserves to suppress the enemy's artillery fire! Jiro Dino said with a wave of his hand.

"Hai, sir!" The adjutant paused heavily, and then immediately called the Japanese army headquarters in the city.

At this time, there was no time to keep the only artillery squad of three Type 92 infantry guns to shoot at the end.

At this time, Zhang Dabiao's first battalion and Shen Qun's second battalion were suppressed by Wang Chengzhu's artillery fire, and some of the soldiers of the new regiment had already attacked the first trench of the devil.

Wang Chengzhu's artillery fire concentrated on the bombardment, blowing up the barbed wire fence pulled up in front of the little devil's defensive position, and there were not many mines hanging on it. Under the heavy artillery bombardment, they were also blown up and killed.

If he didn't use artillery fire to counteract, Dino Jiro knew that if he held on, the casualties of the Japanese army would not be less.

Sure enough, Hattori Musashi in the city did not hesitate and directly ordered the artillery team to directly support Jiro Dino's defensive operation.

"Knock Knock Knock !!"

One after another, shells were fired rapidly from the muzzles of the three Type 92 infantry guns of the devil's artillery squad, and after the loud sound of the shells, the shells whistled from the sky and exploded into the ranks of the new regiment of soldiers who were attacking north of the county seat.

"Boom, boom, boom!!!"

The shells continued to explode, and some fighters who were relatively dense in battle formation were suddenly bombed, causing heavy casualties.

At the first time, the devil's artillery counterattack was seen by Zhang Dabiao and Shen Qun.

The two of them unanimously asked people to pick up the phone and contact Wang Chengzhu directly, and asked Wang Chengzhu, this kid, to quickly solve the devil's artillery position.

I have to say that Wang Chengzhu, who did a good job of infantry and artillery coordination, saw the artillery fire in his own attack team for the first time. Don't take half a minute, quickly judge the direction of the devil's artillery position.

At this time, Wang Chengzhu had more than fifteen Type 92 infantry guns in his hands, all of which were captured from the little devil's artillery. As for why they didn't bring their own artillery, an important reason was that this time it was a mobile attack. In the midst of mobile combat, it is impossible for your side to be replenished with artillery shells at any time.

And the Type 92 infantry cannon with the little devil is different, once the devil's shell is captured, it is enough to use it.
