The battle began at 9 a.m. and continued until 4 p.m., with tens of thousands of casualties on both sides, and the battlefield on both sides was littered with corpses and rivers of blood.
Although the Japanese were the attackers, the superiority of artillery was too obvious, and the casualties were much smaller than those of the expeditionary force.
The defense line of the expeditionary force was beaten by the Japanese army several times on the verge of collapse, the new 38th Division and the 28th Division increased troops to the front again and again, and finally the two divisions and nine regiments were all pressed up, so that they could block the fourth attack of the Japanese army, and the second and third lines of defense behind them were handed over to the 49th Division of the reserve transferred by Jiang Haoran, and the reserve Marauder Independent Regiment and the Airborne Brigade were all transferred to the western and northern fronts for reinforcements, and the Japanese army beat out all the troops in Jiang Haoran's hands in this battle. It can be seen that its desperate psychology is bound to win.
The southern front was still the main direction of the Japanese army's attack, and even if it was four o'clock in the afternoon, the Japanese army was still not ready to give up the attack, and after a short rest, it began to cover it with dense artillery fire.
After ten minutes of bombardment, the tanks pushed forward again, followed by dense infantry and ready to charge.
"Fuck it, it's not endless?" Sun Liren, the commander of the new 38th Division, stretched out half of his head from the trench, scolded hatefully, and then retreated to the trench, waved the AK47 in his hand, and said in a cruel voice: "Brothers, this is the last attack of the little devils today, as long as they are repulsed, it will be difficult for the little devils to organize such a large-scale attack, the victory must belong to our expeditionary force, do you have confidence!" ”
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The sound of the mountain roaring and tsunami sounded on the battlefield, and the soldiers raised their weapons and sapper shovels in their hands, and their expressions were agitated and their blood was raging.
"Okay, you are all my good brothers, my Sun Liren will leave the words here today, the little devil wants to pass from the defense line, unless he steps on my Sun Liren's corpse, my Sun Liren swears to live and die with the position!"
"Swear to live and die with the position!"
"Swear to live and die with the position!"
The sound of the mountain and tsunami sounded again on the battlefield, rushing straight into the sky.
"Hit!" Sun Liren took the lead in firing the AK47 in his hand, and then the guns of various weapons rang out, and the remaining dozens of unconscionable artillery pieces behind him also began to throw shells outward, they basically only had one chance to fire, and the soldiers would run away immediately after releasing the shells, because the next second it would be destroyed by the artillery fire of the little devils.
Gunshots and artillery rumbled, and the two sides began a new round of desperate fighting, and the battlefield filled with gunsmoke was soon filled with a strong smell of blood.
The Japanese army stepped on the corpses of their comrades to attack the defense line of the expeditionary force one after another, and this time the troops invested were more than the previous times, the locust-like little devils seemed to never be able to kill, less than a hundred meters at the front of the position were piled up a half-meter-high corpse wall, and the little devils in the rear continued to rush forward, pushing the soldiers in front of them to constantly cross the corpse wall, and the fallen little devils would soon form a second corpse wall, and they used this suicidal attack to continuously shorten the direct distance with the expeditionary force.
The expeditionary force was also weakened and weakened by the frantic suppression of Japanese tanks, grenades, and light and heavy machine guns, and the disparity in strength was immediately revealed.
The Japanese army invested at least 20,000 troops this time, while the expeditionary force's southern defense line consisted of nine regiments with less than 30,000 troops, and in several previous battles, the casualties had already exceeded half, and all kinds of artillery fire, light and heavy machine gun firepower points had already been almost eliminated by the Japanese army's artillery fire, and no matter how tenacious the expeditionary force was, the disparity in strength made them already dangerous.
In less than an hour, the Japanese advanced the attack distance to 50 meters, which is a very dangerous distance, which means that the Japanese army may launch a cluster charge in the next second, and once the Japanese army pours into the trenches and enters the hand-to-hand combat stage, the entire defense line will inevitably collapse.
At least 40 percent of the current units of the expeditionary force, except for the airborne brigade and the snow wolf special combat team, are new recruits, especially the new 38th and 28th divisions.
Although they still have the 49th Division behind them on the second line of defense, this unit must not be transferred to the first line, without the buffer of the second line of defense, once the first line of defense collapses, even the opportunity to arrange the last line of troops will be lost, the entire southern front defense line will completely collapse, and Lashio will be lost in the next second.
The Japanese army really did not give up this opportunity, all kinds of light and heavy machine gun fire increased suddenly, and the soldiers on the position also began to nervously bayonet, as the gunfire stopped, the Japanese troops all over the mountains rolled forward like a yellow wave, and the howl of "kill the chicken" resounded all over the world, and even covered the sparse gunfire of the expeditionary force.
At this critical moment, the sky behind the expeditionary force suddenly roared and the propellers roared, and the dense gunships came in a row, appearing and disappearing in the smoke.
At the critical moment, Jiang Haoran couldn't hold it down in the end, and sent out more than 200 armed helicopters, in the face of dense anti-aircraft fire points, it was not a very wise choice to dispatch helicopters on a large scale, but Jiang Haoran had no choice.
After entering the firing range, the rocket nests and missiles on the short wings of the helicopter frantically poured shells on the Japanese positions, and all kinds of machine guns and machine guns also opened fire.
The scene immediately became grandiose, and the lethality of the cluster rockets against the dense infantry charge was absolutely unimaginable; seven rockets poured out from one rocket nest, covering an area of at least 100 meters, and more than 200 armed helicopters were four or five hundred rocket nests, plus the "Hellfire" and "Tao" anti-tank missiles, machine guns, and machine guns, and other weapons of great destruction, the tragic scene can be imagined.
In the skyrocketing firelight, the explosion rumbled, shrapnel danced wildly, and fragments of humanoid objects flew all over the sky, almost covering the Japanese army's forward positions in an instant, and the Japanese troops behind suddenly retreated like a tide, faster than when they charged, only hating their father and mother for missing two legs, and the terrifying firepower destroyed the fighting spirit of the Japanese army in an instant.
But the Japanese army was also prepared, but a large amount of smoke did not allow them to find the helicopter in the first place, and also gave the helicopter enough time to launch the first round of attacks, in the following time, the Japanese army's intensive anti-aircraft fire opened fire on all fronts, and the helicopters came out of thick smoke and fell, even if they constantly changed their flight altitude and direction, but the Japanese anti-aircraft fire was like a dense giant net, and they had nowhere to escape.
