Chapter 166: Evacuation
"Da Da Da ......"
Bullets puffed down from the bombers, and a series of bullets poured down towards the defenders' positions like a storm, and a platoon of soldiers didn't even have time to react.
This was only the power of the airborne machine guns, and as the Type 97 bombers dived down, the bombs mounted on more than a dozen bombers were directly dropped, accurately landing on the position, and immediately exploding, blowing up several machine guns that were still firing, setting off a large area of dirt, and a large crater appeared on the position.
The machine gunner and several fighters around him didn't even have room to react, and were directly blown into a pile of minced meat by the shells, which were lifted into the air along with the dirt and then fell.
Blood was spilled as if it had rained blood.
More than a dozen bombers wreaked havoc on the defenders' positions, blowing the entire position into a pile of rubble, killing and wounding countless soldiers, but the other soldiers didn't seem to see it, and didn't care about the little devil's fighters at all, just concentrating on dealing with the infantry rushing by the Japanese army.
These soldiers seemed to ignore the Japanese fighters, but every time the little devil's fighters raged, the defenders fired at the Japanese soldiers like crazy and retaliated against them, which caught the Japanese army by surprise.
The defenders' firepower is simply too fierce!
The machine guns continued to strafe, as if the bullets did not cost money, and the rifles in the hands of the other soldiers also fired again and again, not caring about any losses, which put the Japanese soldiers under too much pressure, and for a while, the casualties were somewhat heavy.
"Yaga! What's going on? "The captain of the little devil team was lying on the fishing boat, and the whole person was hiding behind the little devil. This little devil has been shot and died, and is blocked in front of him by this captain as a shield.
The captain was lying behind, his face was a little ugly, and his whole body was curled up, like a soft-footed shrimp, and he didn't dare to come out at all.
The opponent's firepower was too fierce, and the bullets seemed to be as if they didn't need money, which made the captain couldn't help but exclaim.
In their impression, the equipment of the Chinese army is very poor, and there are very few bullets, all of which can be saved, and bullets will not be wasted at all, and a soldier may only have a few bullets in a battle. But now, they are firing fatally, shooting wildly, and even the firepower of their big RB empire has been temporarily suppressed!
And under the bombardment of Imperial warplanes, their infantry was suppressed!
This made the captain look like a ghost!
Is this still the China Army he recognizes!
The captain felt that what he encountered was not an ordinary unit of the Zhina Army, and he felt that what he encountered was as if he was facing the pressure of a German armorer in the Battle of Songhu!
"Puff puff ......"
Just when the captain was thinking crankily in his heart, another series of bullets swept over, and a few little devils next to him screamed so softly, and then slipped into the water with a pop, and the captain of the little devil was so frightened that he hurriedly lay down and didn't dare to raise his head again.
"Yaga! I can't hold on anymore! The firepower of the Chinese army is too fierce! Hurry up, inform Your Excellency the brigade commander, and ask him to send tanks to reinforce as soon as possible to suppress the firepower of the Chinese army! The captain lay on the fishing boat and yelled loudly.
"Hey!"
Hearing this, a little devil who could swim immediately took the order, then jumped into the water with a pop, and then swam towards the back with all his might.
Soon, the little devil was already ashore and immediately headed for the brigade commander's place to ask for reinforcements.
After receiving the news of the request for help, although the brigade commander Gao Tian Erfu was a little annoyed by the inaction of the attacking troops, he also knew that they had to take the opposite position in this attack anyway, otherwise His Excellency the division commander would definitely not forgive him, so he did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly issued an order for a chariot squadron of the 13th Division to be dispatched to reinforce him.
At the same time, an artillery brigade under the control of the brigade was dispatched to assist the attacking troops.
Under the order of Takadaji's support, the 19th Artillery Brigade immediately opened fire, they had already set up an artillery position, and at this time waited for the order, directly locked on to the target on the opposite side, and then fired the shells.
The tank squadron also drove directly to the river bank, turned the gun port, and blasted towards the defenders' positions.
Although the tank could not pass, the tank guns on the tank were able to cross the Huai River and shell directly to the other side of the river.
Under the multi-directional fire of the Japanese fighters, artillery, chariots, and infantry, although the defenders fought back, after all, the flesh and blood could not resist the steel cannons, and the soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and the strength of the counterattack was also suddenly reduced.
The Japanese took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and the ferocious firepower poured down on the defenders' positions, once again causing widespread deaths among the defenders.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
The shells fell on the position in a row, exploded, and blew up huge craters, and countless soldiers were swallowed by the shells, and died tragically on the spot, not even a whole corpse was left.
"Master, the little devil's firepower is too fierce, and the brothers are about to be unable to support it!" He Weizhen was loudly urging the soldiers to hold on, but at this time, an officer ran over and shouted loudly.
"! Little devil, this is fucking crazy! You want to take our position in one go! Hearing this, He Weizhen scolded angrily and yelled.
However, no matter how much he was yelling and scolding, he couldn't kill the little devil at all.
The casualties of the soldiers under the fire of the Japanese artillery are increasing dramatically.
At this time, the soldiers who still insisted on the position were much less than when the battle was fought before, and the formation was also a little sparse.
In such a situation, the firepower is naturally a lot sparse, and the Japanese army at this time, with the assistance of their aircraft and artillery, is about to rush to the shore!
Seeing this scene, He Weizhen knew that they couldn't resist it!
As they spoke, another tank gun landed on the position, hitting a sandbag fortification, and immediately raising the sky full of yellow sand.
Although the caliber of the tank gun is only 27mm, it is more than enough to deal with this kind of sandbag fortification!
"Boom!"
A cannon shot came out, directly blasting a machine gun on the position into a pile of scrap metal, and several soldiers around were thrown out by this shell, and their bodies fell to the ground like a rag bag.
Not only tank guns, aerial bombs, artillery, machine guns, countless firepower continued to pour over, all kinds of shells bombarded indiscriminately, and the large-scale strafing of machine guns seemed to clean the position, and the defenders had no ability to resist at all!
And the Japanese army is already close to the riverbank!
Seeing this scene, He Weizhen knew that he had to make up his mind as soon as possible, so he didn't dare to hesitate any longer, and immediately shouted loudly: "Quick, everyone is ready to evacuate, withdraw to the second line of defense!" ”
