"Bang bang...... Bang bang ......"

"Tweet ......"

In the dark night, the bullets kept flying over the heads of the Japanese soldiers lying on the ground, and watching the entire brigade of Japanese soldiers being suppressed on the road and unable to move, Mino Haru Shaosa, who was the captain of the brigade, was in a very bad mood. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The task of the 98th Infantry Brigade led by him was to be responsible for the reconnaissance task of the main force within five kilometers of the left front.

The 98th Infantry Brigade naturally had to counterattack when it encountered the enemy's situation, but it was not a simple matter to find out the enemy's position in this kind of dark night, although the firepower fired by the opponent was not very fierce, it was estimated to be the strength of a battalion, but it at least played a role in blocking the advance of the Japanese troops. And Sanye Spring Shaozo didn't dare to order the troops to launch a large-scale attack, after all, who knows what traps the other party has laid in the dark.

In desperation, Mino Haru had to send someone to report the situation to the division commander Tsusawa Shoshin, and at the same time, Tsutozawa Shoshin received almost the same report from the 278 Captain Tsumi and Dian Shaozo who were in charge of the right guard.

"Huh......" Hirosawa Nashinaga sighed, turned his head to the chief of staff on the side, and said, "As expected, the Shina man really appeared!" ”

"yes, it's finally there!" Asano Shintam also breathed a sigh of relief, the invisible enemy is the most terrifying, because it can't be seen, so it is the most worrying.

"Order the 98th and 278th Infantry Brigades to destroy the enemy in front as quickly as possible, and be sure to arrive in Zhouning before dawn!"

But Tsuizawa Naosin was too optimistic, and soon after his order was issued, the two captains of Satsumi Kazunori and Mino Haru sent telegrams respectively, and the Huaxia troops on the opposite side were very fierce, and they had no way to eliminate each other in a short time.

Looking at Sarozawa Shonobu's displeased expression, Asano Shintam proposed: "Your Excellency the division commander, do you want to order the Field Artillery Wing to support the 98th and 278th Brigades with artillery fire?" ”

"Forget it!" Tsuizawa Naosin hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "It's late at night, and the artillery wing has no way to accurately locate it, so it can only waste ammunition in vain." ”

Asano Shintam stopped talking, unless the positioning and calibration were done in advance, otherwise the artillery would not be able to accurately locate even if they had great ability in the dark night.

Half an hour passed slowly, but the gunfire in front of him not only did not weaken but became more and more intense, and even the sound of small-caliber shells exploding could be heard in the middle, and Tsusawa Naobu began to worry again. As expected, soon a signal soldier came panting and reported: "Your Excellency the division commander, Sanye Chun Shaozo reports that the artillery of the Zhina people is too fierce, and he has launched two attacks in a row and has been beaten back, unless more troops are invested, there is no way to break through their position in a short time." ”

"Baga, this idiot, he can't even break through a position, what's the use of me asking him to do it!" Hearing that what he was worried about had become a fact, Tsuizawa Shangxin couldn't help but scold, it was already more than 2:20 in the morning, less than four hours before dawn, if he couldn't break through the position of the Huaxia people and rush to Zhou Ning before dawn, then the more than 5,000 Japanese troops he led would be unabashedly exposed to the sight of the Chinese people, and as long as more than ten planes from the other side came to bomb in the last round, they would have to shed their skin if they didn't die, even if they could barely reach Zhou Ning, they probably wouldn't have much combat power left.

"We can't afford to delay it any longer." Naobu Hirosawa only thought about it for a moment and made a decision: "You immediately order the 279th and 280th brigades to also enter the battle, I will give them another hour, if they can't defeat the opposite Shina troops, don't come back to see me!" ”

"Division commander, but then we don't have reserves!" Asano hesitated for a moment and asked.

Hirosawa Nashin shouted angrily: "If we can't take the position of the Shina people on time, we will all be exposed to the planes of the Shina people after dawn, and what is the use of leaving the reserves at that time!" ”

"Hay!" Seeing that Sakazawa Shoshin had made up his mind, Asano had no choice but to carry out the order, and in order to provide maximum support to the infantry, Sakazawa Shoshin even ordered the field artillery wing to carry out a covering artillery bombardment of the blocking positions of the Chinese army under very poor visibility.

"Shiza, the Japanese have taken the bait!"

In the headquarters of the 350th Division, Sun Liren soon received a report from a reconnaissance team lurking in the front.

"Good!"

Sun Liren smashed his fist on the artillery box on the side, and then shouted: "Pass my order, the heavy artillery regiment will carry out artillery bombardment on the fixed coordinates, and after the shelling is completed, the tank battalion will take the lead and all the troops will immediately launch a counter-charge, and the battle must end before dawn!" ”

"Understood!"

"Uh......h Boom ......"

Another large-caliber grenade hit the vicinity of the headquarters of the 129th Division, and the whole earth shook a few times, and then a fierce wind blew the entire tent into the air with all kinds of debris, sand, gravel and mud, and knocked the staff officers who were busy inside to the ground.

"Amaterasu, have you given up on your people?"

Naobu Awazawa looked at everything in front of him in despair, his heart was filled with incomparable guilt and anger, at this moment his heart was like countless ants biting to death, pain and remorse filled his heart, just after he threw all the troops at hand into the attack, his nightmare began.

At the beginning, the guns of the Chinese people, who had been fiercely resisting under the onslaught of the infantry of the four brigades, quickly weakened, and just as the excited Japanese commanders commanded thousands of Japanese troops to intensify their attacks in the dark night, the Japanese field artillery wing behind also tried to pour shells forward.

With a piercing whistling, the shells of the first round of 75-mm mountain artillery exploded on the positions of the Chinese army. In the darkness of the night, the explosion of fireballs and smoke and the splashing of earth turned the entire position into an erupting volcano, and the shocking and destructive scene made the attacking Japanese soldiers express their heartfelt admiration.

In the eyes of the Japanese army, the Chinese had been blinded by their artillery fire, and the other side did not make any response for more than ten minutes, and the entire position was silently suffering the ravages of the artillery fire of the Japanese Empire.

After about ten minutes of artillery bombardment on the forward positions of the Chinese army, the artillery began to extend the artillery fire to the depth of the position, and then all the Japanese soldiers jumped out of their bunkers with their bayonet mounted and jumped out of their respective bunkers and rushed towards the position of the Chinese army a mile away.

When the Japanese soldiers shouted slogans in the dark and rushed towards the positions of the Huaxia troops in front of them, when they were halfway through, the positions in front were still silent, and not even a single shot was fired. At this moment, Saranobu Hirozawa, who was watching the battle from behind, was a little suspicious that the shelling just now was so fierce that it killed all the Chinese people. However, this thought was quickly left behind him, if Su Jin's troops had such a little combat effectiveness, he would have been wiped out by the Great Japanese Empire many times.

At this time, the Japanese army, which was already less than 300 meters away from the position of the Chinese army, saw that victory was in sight, and many people shouted excitedly, and the Japanese soldiers accelerated their pace and rushed forward while shooting.

Just as they were about to rush to the front of the position, a sharp whistle suddenly sounded on the position, and then countless M35 steel helmets emerged from the trenches, and countless tongues of fire erupted from the entire forward position. With the heart-rending burst of fire from MG34, countless Japanese soldiers who were running at the front fell to the ground one by one, and then their companions followed them, accompanied by the sound of gunfire, and dense mortar shells continued to explode in the ranks, and corpse fragments and guns and equipment flew in the air.

"It's not good, this is the trap of the Chinese people, we were fooled!" The exclamations of the Japanese officers rang out everywhere in the ranks, "Hurry up and get down...... Get down...... Get down! ”

But it was over, and a dull whistling sound sounded above their heads.

"Shelling...... Hurry up and hide! ”

As soon as a young man shouted, a second later, an artillery shell exploded less than three meters away from him, and with a violent explosion, the soldiers within a radius of fifty meters were torn to pieces by shrapnel in an instant, human fragments and internal organs of various shapes, guns, military uniforms, and backpacks were thrown up to a height of twenty or thirty meters, and then scattered in different trajectories in the surrounding infantry ranks, and the shells left a large crater on the ground with a depth of five meters and a diameter of about ten meters.

"Amaterasu, this ...... It turned out to be heavy artillery! ”

Naosin Awaawa was stunned in the command behind him, he had also observed just now that although the firepower on the opponent's position was not sparse, it would not exceed one battalion at best. According to his understanding, although the Third Army under Su Jin had a large number of artillery, such heavy artillery with a caliber of more than 150 could only be found in division-level units, so how could it appear here.

It's just that whether he believes it or not, it did happen, and what made him even more unbelievable was that the large-caliber shells of the Chinese people rained down on the Japanese infantry group one after another.

After seeing this scene, Asano Shintamam Daisa, who was on the side, also said in an almost desperate tone: "At least twenty heavy artillery pieces are shelling us. ”

Hirosawa Naosin roared: "This is a trap, what are you fools still doing in a daze, hurry up and order them to withdraw." Let the infantry disperse "retreat, and the field artillery wing also quickly withdraw from its positions, otherwise it will be too late!" (To be continued.) )
