Chapter 1227: Passive Beating

The little devils think that the Chinese troops will not attack for the time being, the little devils are in an extremely tense situation this day, and now the night is very dark, and the devil soldiers want to rest for a while, in their opinion, the Chinese troops should not carry out any action tonight.

Captain Shao Zuo held the binoculars and looked ahead, his face showed a somewhat solemn expression, Captain Shao Zuo, who has rich combat experience, obviously felt that something was abnormal, and he could sense that the Chinese troops would definitely take action tonight.

"I always feel strange that the troops must not rest and that they are all ready for battle, that the troops are too quiet, this kind of silence is not normal. Immediately my order was delivered, and the grenadier immediately fired a flare, firing it in front. ”

Captain Shaozo put down the binoculars, he had a solemn expression on his face, it was dark in the distance, he couldn't observe the specific situation, but he was sure that this silence was not normal.

As the order of the captain of Shaozo began to be conveyed, the little devil grenadier began to quickly set up the Type 89 grenadier, and the ammunition man on the side quickly began to load the flare.

Flares began to be fired by grenadiers, and as the flares lifted into the air, the darkness of the night instantly began to turn into day.

Captain Shaozo held a telescope and immediately looked ahead, and he saw that artillery had begun to appear less than seven hundred meters away from the position.

Seeing this scene, Captain Shaozuo couldn't help but show a shocked expression on his face, his brows furrowed tightly, and he realized that the Chinese troops were preparing for an attack.

"The Chinese troops are building front-line cover positions, and they will immediately launch firepower strikes to suppress them, and they will definitely not be able to set up artillery positions."

Captain Shao Zuo immediately shouted, he had guessed that the Chinese troops were going to put bayonets on the artillery, so that the artillery could fire at close range.

"Da-da-da-da." The Japanese heavy machine gun fire immediately began to fire, and strings of tongues of fire appeared, and bullets quickly fired at the artillery positions.

Fortunately, when the Japanese began to fire flares, the soldiers had already guessed that the Japanese were likely to launch a fire strike, and they hid in time.

Seeing that the various firepower points of the Japanese army began to be exposed, Tan Tianyu, the deputy commander of the honorary fourth division who was responsible for the unified command of the mountain artillery battalion, infantry artillery company, weapon support company, and machine gun company on the front line, showed a helpless expression on his face, he now has no way to command the artillery to counterattack, because once the artillery starts shooting, the first to kill is not the devil soldiers, but those innocent people.

"The little devil is really not a thing, he has the ability to practice one-on-one with us, and what kind of ability does he have to take the people as hostages."

"The order given by the commander-in-chief is really wise, none of these little devils can be left, and they must all be killed."

"But what should we do now, there are people in front of the little devil's position, and we have no way to shoot."

The artillerymen talked to each other, they could ensure that they could accurately hit the Japanese fire points, but they could not shoot, because once they fired, the first to be killed must be those innocent people.

The little devil's machine gun fire was fierce, and the bullets came as if they didn't want money, but the artillery positions and machine gun positions that had just been established not far from the Japanese positions could only bear silently, and they could not counterattack at all.

There were civilians who were held hostage in front of the Japanese positions, and the artillery and machine guns could not continue firing for the time being.

However, as the Japanese began to discover artillery positions and machine gun positions, Yin Jinshan, commander of the Ninth Army, began to give orders to attack.

Fang Chaoqun, commander of the 201st Division, personally led the Fifth Armored Regiment to begin the attack, and the first armored battalion, the second armored battalion, a total of 60 No. 4 tanks began to attack.

Sixty No. 4 tanks were in battle formation, and the two armored battalions rushed to the Japanese position in a wedge-shaped formation, while the armored vehicles of the armored infantry regiment followed them.

"Ding, ding, ding." The bullets fired from the Japanese fire point hit the tank, but these bullets did not cause any damage to the tank at all.

The tanks continued to move forward, and step by step they began to approach the Japanese positions.

"Prepare anti-tank guns immediately, wait until the tanks get close, immediately start shooting with anti-tank guns, and be sure to destroy all the tanks in China!"

The commander of the 56th Wing saw that the Chinese troops began to dispatch tanks, and he immediately gave an order.

WITH THE TRANSFER OF FOUR ANTI-TANK GUNS FROM THE 23RD ANTI-TANK GUN SQUADRON DIRECTLY UNDER THE 55TH WING OF THE JAPANESE BRIGADE, THE 56TH WING NOW HAS TEN 47MM ANTI-TANK GUNS.

These ten anti-tank guns were scattered all over the position, and the black holes were aimed at the tanks, as long as the tanks reached a certain distance, then they would definitely fire directly.

"Commander, you can't rush over like this, we are worried about the safety of the people and can't shoot, the little devils are hiding behind the people, they can strike at us, there are not many tanks left in the 201st Division, if these tanks are all spelled out, we have no place to replenish."

Xie Hui, chief of staff of the Provisional Ninth Army, who was watching the battle from behind, walked quickly to the army commander Yin Jinshan, he looked at Yin Jinshan, and said in a solemn tone.

He didn't have to think about the current situation to know that the Japanese anti-tank guns were definitely aimed at the tanks, and as long as the tanks reached a certain distance, the anti-tank guns would definitely open fire immediately.

If the small number of tanks of the 201st Division were to be lost again, there would be no way to replenish them.

"What can we do now, we can't shoot at the people, let the tanks get close to the Japanese positions first, and the armored infantry regiment will follow and rush over, and the dragon troops are still following behind the tanks, they will definitely be able to save the people." Yin Jinshan shook his head and said helplessly, he naturally knew how unfavorable the situation was now.

But Yin Jinshan is very clear about his responsibility, the task of the military is to protect the people, if even the people can't be saved, what can he do if he wins?

"Commander, I'll ......" Xie Hui wanted to continue to say something, but Yin Jinshan waved his hand and signaled him to stop talking.

The tanks continued to approach the Japanese positions, and when the tanks were less than two hundred meters away from the Japanese positions, the Japanese anti-tank guns began firing.

With a "boom", an armor-piercing shell was quickly launched, and this armor-piercing shell hit directly at a tank No. 4.

The armor-piercing shell pierced the No. 4 tank, which began to ram at the tanks next to it, and the two No. 4 tanks collided together, and the Japanese anti-tank guns continued to fire, and the two No. 4 tanks were destroyed on the spot.
