"Battalion commander, battalion commander!"

The devil's artillery fire extended backwards and fired, like ploughing, the smoke of the rumbling second anti-defense explosion billowed out, and the forward position was blown into a mess, and several disgraced soldiers hurriedly dug out the battalion commander buried in the collapsed trench from the dirt while shouting.

"Phew, bah-"

The battalion commander, who was almost buried in the mud and suffocated to death, turned his head and spat out a mouth full of mud, and his hat was lifted off and he didn't know where it fell, revealing a freshly shaved green head.

"The battalion commander is fine, the battalion commander is fine." Seeing that the battalion commander who had been cut out was still alive, these brothers shouted excitedly.

He shook his head to sober up his chaotic head, looked at the few dusty brothers around him, and then turned his head to look around, and in the smoke of gunpowder, there were brothers lying there, life and death unknown.

"Battalion commander, the devil is here, let's withdraw quickly."

Seeing that their battalion commander was looking around, as if he had not understood the situation, one of the brothers could not wait to speak.

Before they could exchange fire with the little devil, the devil smashed down with a cannonball, and most of the two companies arranged in the front line were killed and wounded, and they were no longer capable of fighting the devil.

The reason why these veterans didn't run away and wanted to dig out the battalion commander before leaving, was just because they didn't want to be accused of desertion, after all, running away without permission and running backwards with the battalion commander are two different concepts.

"Run a fart, pick up the gun, and get ready for battle!" The commander of the first battalion of the third regiment kicked the old soldier who spoke, and stood up scolding.

"Battalion commander, you can't win the battle, everyone is dead...... Another veteran Youzi saw that the battalion commander was going to fight, thinking that he had not woken up from the bombing, and hurriedly added.

"Holy shit, Lao Tzu is still alive, who said he is dead! Hurry back to your position, if anyone dares to be a deserter, don't blame Lao Tzu for not recognizing people with the gun in his hand! ”

The battalion commander, who used to get together to drink together when he had nothing to do, seemed to have lost his mind, but now he has lost his usual warmth at all, but looks hideous.

"Lao Tzu followed six troops, was beaten six times by the little devil, and tens of thousands of brothers died, Lao Tzu endured enough! Don't want to run anymore! The battalion commander raised his shell gun in his hand and shouted: "Prepare for battle!" ”

Watching their battalion commander shout and kick some people up from the ground, several veterans who wanted to run back to save their lives glanced at each other, and they all turned their guns helplessly, turned around and threw themselves on the side of the trench wall, and raised their guns.

They really want to save their lives, but now they can't withdraw at all, the battalion commander doesn't withdraw, who dares to withdraw, maybe as soon as they turn around, someone will shoot black guns behind them, and they don't want to die in vain.

The gray-faced battalion commander trotted over the gunsmoke-filled position, shouting loudly: "Those who can still breathe are ready for battle for Lao Tzu, and those who retreat without permission will be killed!" ”

The brothers who had been stunned by the explosion or buried in the earth also recovered, found their weapons again, and lay down along the collapsed trenches.

Before the devils bombarded, the entire trench was crowded with people, but now there are only a few living people in almost a long section of the trench, but the battalion commander did not say to withdraw, they did not dare to withdraw, so they could only hold on.

The devils have full confidence in winning Gaoyou, and they didn't rush up on the explosive point like every bloody battle in the past.

These troops formed by the devil's supplementary soldiers are not as bold and powerful as those veteran devils, and they are just a group of new recruits who have just come down from the training ground, but they have been trained long enough and use better weapons and equipment than the Chinese officers and soldiers.

The first offensive echelon of the devils pulled the sparse skirmisher line, and the width of the skirmish line reached more than 300 meters, and the devils of the second attack wave were more than 20 meters away, followed by the third wave......

The devil's offensive echelon is like a wave, and such an offensive formation can not only avoid being killed by artillery fire due to too dense personnel, but also maintain sufficient impact.

Once the first offensive echelon is blocked, then the new force of the second echelon can quickly follow up and increase the firepower, and at the same time, the echelons can alternately cover each other.

Since this batch of soldiers are all devils' supplementary troops, most of the officers are temporarily drawn from the garrison units in various places, and the officers and men are not familiar with each other.

It is not so much that the attack on Gaoyou was an offensive operation, but that it was an actual combat exercise of Taro Sano, the commander of the devil, who was training the Chinese army with Gaoyou.

The devil soldiers also came in strict accordance with the regulations of the infantry drill code, shelling and bombardment, and the infantry charging alternately.

Because these newly transferred reinforcements from China had no experience in actual combat, they carried out various orders in a very old-fashioned manner and slowly approached the positions of the Chinese officers and men.

If it were the troops of those notorious devil field divisions, they would definitely not wait for the end of the bombardment to launch an infantry attack.

Most of the time, before the shelling stopped, they stepped on the bombing point and pounced, and often before the Chinese officers and men could react from the shelling, they had already pounced on the positions and stabbed the Chinese officers and men with bayonets.

There is no doubt that the combat style of those old devils is more ferocious, and now this batch of devil reinforcements is much more immature, but they also have to pay the price.

"Damn, I want a phone from the artillery battalion! Let them teach the little devils a lesson! ”

After waiting for a long time, he saw that the devil was still 400 meters away, and the commander of the first battalion was also a little impatient to wait, and shouted towards the half-hidden forward command post behind.

Soon, the telephone call from the forward position reached the position of the artillery battalion, and this time the deputy commander-in-chief Li Changjiang brought one of the only three artillery battalions of the Sulu guerrilla corps, and the position was at the rear at the moment.

Although the artillery battalion was equipped with several 75mm mountain guns, the shells were expensive, and that one shell was enough for the food of several brothers for half a month.

Therefore, the artillery of the Sulu guerrilla corps is put on a show most of the time, and there is no real chance to fight, because the guerrillas are not rich, and the shells can burn money.

After receiving the call from the front, the artillery battalion commander did not dare to make his own decisions, and called the deputy commander-in-chief Li Changjiang again to solicit opinions.

As soon as the devil came up, the artillery bombarded him, giving the Sulu guerrilla corps a dismount, and now the deputy commander-in-chief Li Changjiang's heart is also on fire.

"Hit! Let the little devils also taste the taste of shelling! Deputy commander-in-chief Li Changjiang also ordered the shelling in a negative mood.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

With the nod of the deputy commander-in-chief Li Changjiang, the artillery battalion commander was no longer stingy with Jin Gui, who was stingy with the shells, and also let go of the fight, and clusters of red light erupted from the barrel of the gun, smashing at the devil with the breath of death.

The devils had unhurriedly entered the position of two hundred meters of the forward position, and their machine gun crew was lying on the spot, ready to cover the infantry to launch a pig charge, when suddenly the sound of breaking through the air sounded, and hail shells fell.

"Boom—"

Smoke and dust rose from the flames of the explosion, the earthquake trembled, and the shells fell on the devil's attack group, exploding flesh and blood, and wailing incessantly.

A cannonball hit the devil soldier directly, and with a bang, half of the devil's body exploded, just like a haunted in broad daylight.

"Boom!"

A Devil tank car was also hit by a shell, and the 75mm caliber shell directly blew up a hole in the Devil's tank.

With a bang, the ammunition was detonated, the devil's tank turned into a burning fireball, red-hot iron and minced meat were thrown everywhere, and more than a dozen devils who were following the tank were also burned into burning men, rolling on the ground in pain.

Although the devil has a perfect industrial system, it has insufficient resources, and iron ore and other iron ore still need to be plundered from China, because it is relatively different from Germany's Tiger and other heavy tanks, and the devil's tank is like a papier-mâché toy.

The thin protective steel plate could penetrate even the heavy machine guns at close range, let alone the bombardment of artillery shells, and the other four tanks hurriedly turned around and started running when they saw that the situation was not good.
