After three days, the 200,000-strong army of the Iron Lions advanced a distance of five kilometers.

The headquarters of the Iron Lions was quickly set up, and at the same time, the engineer fighters formed a sortie position three kilometers from the headquarters.

It is not easy to build a positional trench in the midst of this ice and snow.

After three days, the rear positions of the Iron and Blood Lion Army were all set up, ready to start this hard-fought positional battle.

Predator Lion Command.

Li Yunlong looked at Shangguan Yu Fei and said, "How are our secret weapons prepared?" ”

"According to the reality of the telegram sent by Commander Luo, our secret unit has arrived at Beiping Airport!" Shangguan Yu Fei responded: "As long as you get the order, you can attack immediately!" ”

"Good!" The corners of Li Yunlong's mouth hooked up a faint smile: "This is the killer weapon of the positional warfare this time." ”

…………

Liaohe Plain Position, Liaohe County.

General Headquarters of the Combined Forces of the Japanese Army. 650

This time, the 200,000 Kwantung Army was composed of 8 first-class and second-class divisions, plus three corps of the puppet Manchukuo Army, to form the combined forces of the Japanese army this time.

The commander-in-chief of the joint forces was Lieutenant General Nakaichi Ohashi, commander of the 8th Division of the Kwantung Army.

To be honest, the pressure on Ohashi Nakaichi is very high!

Starting from Taiyuan, the Japanese army organized several very large battles against the Iron and Blood Lion Army, such as the Battle of Taiyuan, the Battle of Nanjing, the Battle of Shanghai, the Battle of Xuzhou, the Battle of Tianjin, etc., but the final result was defeat.

Now the Japanese army regrets very much that it did not annihilate the Iron Lion Army when it was still very weak, and now when the Iron Lion Army has developed so strongly, it is already very difficult to annihilate it.

Furuta at noon, chief of the general staff of the Japanese joint forces, stepped forward and faced the bridge: "Your Excellency Commander, according to intelligence, the Iron and Lion Army has already formed a sortie position two kilometers away from us, and it seems that it will soon attack us!" ”

Daqiao nodded slightly.

The defense line of the Japanese Liaohe position has been built for a long time, the defense of the position is deep, the defense system is perfect, and the anti-tank fortifications, firepower, and obstacles have been strengthened, and the defensive position of echelons has been adopted, and the defense is very tight.

But since this is the case, Ohashi Zhongyi is still at a loss.

After hesitating for a moment, Daqiao Zhongyi looked at the chief of the general staff next to him, Furuta Noon, and asked, "Do you think we can hold it?" ”

Furuta was silent at noon.

Can an army of 250,000 against an army of 200,000 be able to hold it?

This is an unknown.

Although the 50,000 puppet Manchukuo army is weak in combat effectiveness, because of the huge number of people, this combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

After being silent for a long time, Furuta said at noon: "The war is full of uncertainty, and the outcome is unknown!" ”

Furuta didn't answer Ohashi Chuichi's question head-on at noon, but Ohashi Nakaichi also had his own answer in his heart.

Daqiao said in a deep voice: "In the current situation, we can only do our best to fight and protect the honor of our imperial army!" ”

Furuta nodded slightly.

Now the Kwantung Army and the Manchukuo Army in the combined forces of the Japanese army are ready, waiting for the attack of the Iron Lion Army.

…………

The next day, the sky was overcast, the temperature was very low, and layers of mist continued to fill the air, and the vision became blurred.

The temperature (bbch) degree in the three northeastern provinces was already very low, and every Predator came to the artillery position wearing a cotton jacket.

Yang Zhihua, the artillery body, came to the artillery position of the Iron and Blood Lion Army, and used the telescope to look at the Japanese position in the distance, but because of the water mist, it looked like it was all white, and no enemy situation was observed.

"Brigade commander, are we going to open fire?" The chief of staff of the running brigade asked: "Visibility is very low now!" ”

Yang Zhihua hesitated for a moment, took a deep breath and said, "Time waits for no one, fire!" ”

"Yes!"

Immediately, an artillery brigade of the Iron Lion Army began to launch the most intense artillery bombardment of the Japanese positions!

"Knock knock ......"

"Whoosh Whoosh ......"

The flames and white smoke appeared, and then one after another shells came out of their disembowels, and the black balls with a ball of fire slid through a parabola in the air, and then landed accurately in the Japanese position.

"Boom...... bongbongbong……”

"Rumble...... Puff puff puff ......"

The flames suddenly burst into the sky, shrapnel flew in all directions, and the white and black gunpowder smoke quickly enveloped the entire Japanese position.

An artillery brigade of the Iron Lion Army has about three main artillery regiments, hundreds of shells of various types, 60mm caliber howitzers, 70mm caliber mountain artillery, 80mm cannons, and even 100mm cannon howitzers, etc...... The larger the caliber of the artillery, the more powerful it is!

"Knock knock...... Whoosh ......"

Hundreds of artillery salvos were fired, and the shells that covered the sky and the sun continued to bombard the Japanese positions in turn, which was very spectacular.

The Japanese soldiers patrolling the position saw that the sky suddenly darkened, and when they looked closely, they immediately shouted: "Artillery attack, enemy shelling!" ”

Soon, the shouts of the little devils were drowned out by the explosion of shells.

As Yang Zhihua continued to command the artillery brigade to extend the artillery of the Japanese position, the entire Japanese position was shrouded in artillery fire and gunsmoke.

The sky was getting brighter, and the visibility was getting brighter and brighter, but with the bombardment of the artillery brigades, the visibility of the Japanese positions was also very, very low.

At this moment, the Japanese positions were all under artillery attack by the iron-blooded lion army, which was very miserable.

But that soon changed......

ps: Fourth, today is the National Memorial Day of the Nanjing Massacre, please let us mourn in silence for the 300,000 compatriots who died, remember history, do not forget the national disaster, and our generation should be self-reliant!.
