The attacking troops withdrew under the cover of machine guns, and the tactical purpose of the attack had been achieved, and according to the counterattack of the Japanese army just now, Chen Daqing and Shi Jue basically determined the size of the defenders, between one brigade and two brigades, and infantry guns and heavy machine guns were the most direct evidence.

The Japanese army in Longshan did not react, but repelled a so-called "attack" of the Chinese army, "there were more than 30 corpses of the national army in front of the position, and in the fierce battle just now, the Japanese army in the position also suffered 10 casualties, for a brigade-level unit, the loss was not large, and the Japanese commander laughed at the weakness of the Chinese army at the same time, there was also a trace of indescribable strangeness in his heart.

The troops who had just retreated returned to the forward position in an orderly manner, and Zhang Wei looked at the 24th regiment from the position of the 23rd regiment, and the casualties did not seem to be very large, after all, it was a tentative attack.

"Order the 24th Regiment to attack with all its might, and the 23rd Regiment will send a battalion to cooperate, and I will apply to the division commander for artillery support later." Shi Jue gave a categorical order in the brigade headquarters.

Chen Daqing, who was in the front of the division, had also seen the entire attack, and he was coordinating the artillery battalion to prepare for the shelling of the Japanese positions.

The order to prepare for a full-scale attack was quickly issued to the regiment, Chen Chunyi still asked the second battalion to prepare for the attack, and the officers and soldiers of the second battalion knew that this time they were really going into battle, and the battalion commander led the troops to make final preparations in the forward position, and Zhang Wei was like an idler at this time.

This is the first time he has seen a brigade-level offensive battle, to be honest. He wanted to participate, but his brothers couldn't let them die, which was also a difficult thing for allies.

Actual combat is always the best way to train, Zhang Wei was ruthless, or decided to lead his troops to participate in the battle, but it was not all independent companies, but Xu Yi's platoon, most of the soldiers in this platoon were born in regiments, and they lacked actual combat experience, so they just needed an attack battle to sharpen.

Zhang Wei's request was told to Chen Chunyi, and after Zhang Wei's bitter request, he finally agreed that Zhang Wei would take a platoon with the second battalion to participate in the attack on Longshan.

The reactions of the officers and soldiers of the independent company who got the news were different, He Kun and Hao Zhong were confused and a little resentful, while Qiu Wei understood Zhang Wei's intentions and explained to the two: "The company commander is balancing the combat effectiveness, or rather, if you want Xu Yi's platoon to improve quickly, don't worry too much." Only then did the two understand and return to their normal hearts.

Xu Yi was sincerely afraid, Zhang Wei relieved him, saying that he should learn more from himself, see how he commanded, and also look at the command of friendly troops, that is to say, in this attack, the supreme commander of Xu Yi's platoon is himself.

The soldiers of Xu Yi's platoon cherished this opportunity to express themselves, sharpened their guns, and some of them were still asking other veterans for tactical essentials and tips on how to use weapons, repeating them repeatedly in their hearts, hoping to take this opportunity to prove themselves and better integrate into the group.

In less than twenty minutes the attacking troops were all ready, and the soldiers stood up, loaded their bayonets, and made a gesture of readiness to charge, waiting for the order to arrive.

On artillery positions behind the flanks of the division headquarters. Seven Bofors 75mm mountain guns were lined up in a neat line, and the artillery in the distance was using gun sights to map the distance, and one battalion would have had 12 mountain guns. But because of losses and lack of weapons, now there are only 7 guns.

The artillery battalion headquarters was covered with a concealment net, which was to prevent bombing by Japanese aircraft, and the telephone was directly connected to the division headquarters at a very close distance.

"Yes, division, start shelling immediately."

The signal corps ran to the positions of the companies and gave the order, and the gunners first loaded the warheads, and then pushed the cartridges into the chambers with ramrods.

The distance from Yongsan is very close, so the aiming work is completed before the reloading, and the distance can be seen with the naked eye, and for artillerymen, even if the quality of the artillery is extremely poor, it will hit at this distance.

"Reloaded, cartridges refilled."

"Aiming is complete, the high and low machine is adjusted."

The seven artillery squad leaders pulled the fire rope and looked at the launch commander behind him, the four commanders were guarding a telephone, and the four people stood in line at a distance of five meters, and the small red flag in their hands was raised in the air, as long as the small flag fell, it was the signal to open fire.

"Fire!"

The small flag fell, and seven guns fired shells, and the huge recoil pushed the Bofors Mountain Gun backwards, and the gunners hurriedly pushed the guns back.

The Japanese troops on Yongshan were hit by the first round of shells, which hit the fortifications and killed several soldiers who were on guard, and the second round began before the first round of shelling was over. The Japanese army was a little panicked when it was bombed, and the non-commissioned officers and officers hurriedly organized the deployment.

After the first round of bombing, the Nationalist troops in the trenches launched an assault, and two battalions of the 24th Regiment, one battalion of the 23rd Regiment, and a huge contingent of more than 1,000 people rushed towards the Longshan position.

The artillery bombardment brought chaos and smoke to the Japanese position, at this time the level of infantry training of the Chinese army was very poor, it can be said that it was equivalent to nothing, the artillery could be more generous this time, and would hit four rounds of artillery, after the first round, the troops began to attack, and the next three rounds would speed up the firing speed to avoid accidental injury, and when the four rounds were finished, the infantry who would not be able to coordinate with the infantry and artillery could only rely on themselves to impact a longer distance.

If the infantry and artillery are coordinated, the infantry can send a signal to the artillery at an appropriate distance, so that the artillery can stop the shelling, and do as they want to minimize their own casualties.

It's a pity that the Chinese army won't, and can only rely on this stupid method and human life in exchange.

"It's still too weak" Zhang Wei thought in the attacking team, Xu Yi stared at the troops on the side, don't let the troops run chaotic.

"Scattered, scattered, in class!"

"Distance." Zhang Wei shouted by pulling his neck, and the soldiers changed and adjusted their formations under Xu Yi's organization. Zhang Wei is now both a company commander and an instructor, he wants to teach these soldiers how to fight, and let Xu Yi learn how to command.

The attacking team of more than 1,000 people began to disperse after charging for a hundred meters, spreading out in front of the Longshan position, and at this time everyone knew to organize the appearance of a dense formation as much as possible. More than a thousand bright bayonets shone brightly in the sun.

The 24th Regiment led the charge with a lieutenant colonel deputy commander, who commanded in the middle of the team, and the 24th Regiment had not been in contact with the Japanese until now, so he could not disgrace the regiment, thinking of this, he urged the soldiers again.

"Hurry up, spread out, play? Hurry up and unfold, don't eat guns. ”

The running of a thousand people stirred up a burst of dust, and the Japanese troops in the Longshan position looked at the smoke and dust in the distance, a little uneasy, and they couldn't see how many people were coming, but there must have been a lot of people.

Infantry guns were loaded in advance, valuable shrapnel shells, filled with prefabricated fragments.

"Prepare to shoot, shoot in advance, listen to orders!" The Japanese commander stabilized the soldiers and made the decision to shoot in advance, and at this time, if he still fired at the original shooting yuan and distance, I am afraid that he would not be able to stop the offensive of the Chinese army.

On Zhang Wei's side, under his order, the grenadier groups of each squad had already put their rifles on their backs and pulled out their grenadiers to prepare for the attack.
