Just when the commander of the army, Yuichiro Nagano, raised the telescope in his hand again. The 12 heavy machine guns that had been built in front of the position had already opened fire, and 12 tongues of fire appeared between the positions of the enemy and the enemy. The dense rain of bullets accurately shot at the mountain beam not far away, and the mountain beam was dusty. Seeing the accurate marksmanship of his soldiers, the wing captain holding the binoculars nodded with satisfaction.

"The warriors of the Great Empire, the time has come to make contributions to the Great Empire. For the sake of the empire, for the sake of the emperor, rush up the mountain beam, destroy the Eighth Route Army on the mountain beam, and kill it" And just as the heavy machine gun sounded, the morale-boosting voice of the captain came from among the imperial soldiers of a brigade assembled in front of the heavy machine gun, followed by the order to attack.

Immediately, a small devil with a brigade of more than 800 people, under the command of the captain, lined up in four infantry phalanxes. Lined up in loose lines, with rifles with bayonets already loaded in their hands, slowly pressed towards the mountain beams amid the roars of the soldiers.

"Yo Xida, the soldiers of this empire are worthy of being the best soldiers in the world, what is the matter with the weak people of the imperial army of this empire?" Seeing the soldiers under his command, lined up in a neat offensive formation, they slowly pressed towards the position of the Eighth Route Army on the mountain beam. One of the wing commanders who was closely watching the front line, Yuichiro Nagano, couldn't help but muttered to himself.

"Battalion commander, battalion commander, the little devils are attacking" just as the heavy machine guns of the Japanese army were firing wildly at the position. A few soldiers who had just escaped the heavy shelling reminded their comrades at the entrance of the tunnel loudly. Receiving orders, one by one, the soldiers quickly burrowed out of the tunnels where they were hiding and entered the positions that had been almost blown into ruins.

"Damn, the little devil's artillery fire is so fierce that such a strong trench was blown up like this, and the soldiers were ordered to enter the trench bunker immediately. , hurry, hurry up, the little devil is coming up soon" Seeing that there was less than half of the trench bunker left, the third battalion commander sighed with emotion and ordered loudly to the two company commanders beside him.

"Yes, battalion commander" The two company commanders took the order, took the soldiers, hid under the dense fire net of the little devils, and began to strengthen the trench bunkers that had been blown up or buried. In this way, in less than a few minutes, the trench, which had already been half blown up, finally revealed its original shape with the efforts of the soldiers. And at this time, the little devil, under the cover of heavy machine guns, had already rushed to a place less than a hundred meters from the position. Seeing that he was about to cross the narrowest position in front of the position, he entered the final sprint.

"All stopped, immediately entered their respective combat positions, and prepared for battle. All heavy machine gun positions, immediately prepare to shoot, as long as the little devil rushes to the valley mouth, shoot me" Seeing the little devil who was getting closer and closer, and could almost hear the sound of talking, the commander of the third battalion immediately ordered. Suddenly, it was still a busy position just now, after receiving the order. The soldiers immediately threw down the sapper shovels in their hands, picked up their weapons, loaded the bullets, and lay down in the half-dug trench, quietly waiting for the arrival of the little devils, quiet, at this time, in addition to the bullets flying above the heads of the soldiers, the snorting sound of being hit by bullets hitting the bunker, there was only the sound of the fighters' breathing. Because everyone saw the enemy in front of them clearly at this time, and knew that they were facing nearly a thousand little devils, and these little devils were field divisions carrying a large number of heavy weapons. Everyone is holding their breath and staring at the little devil who is getting closer and closer without blinking, afraid that their every move will be discovered by the little devil.

"Hit" I don't know who fired the first shot, in short, just when the first little devil had just crossed the valley in front of the position, a sharp rifle sound reached the ears of every soldier on the position, and then a powerful command was transmitted to the ears of every soldier.

In an instant, a dense network of fire composed of heavy machine guns, rifles, and light machine guns enveloped more than a hundred soldiers who rushed to the front of the entire brigade. However, although the fire network of the soldiers is dense, these little devil soldiers really deserve to be field soldiers who have been in war for a long time. Although these people are shrouded in a dense net of fire, they may lose their lives at any time.

However, under the command and restraint of commanders at all levels, these little devils did not fall into even the slightest chaos, but one after another, quickly found a place to hide and concealed. However, these little devils did not calculate that before the start of the battle, the soldiers of the third battalion had basically cleared the obstacles in front of the position. Let these little devils want to find a place to block bullets and hide, but there is nothing to hide.

Eventually, the soldiers stared at the corpses of the soldiers of the vanguard squadron lying motionless on the ground. Seeing that it was possible for them to escape such a dense network of firepower, these little devils did not have any melancholy. They pulled the corpses of the soldiers around them and blocked them in front of them. With the first little devil, the rest of the little devils followed suit.

In this way, under the cover of the corpses of these little devils, more than a hundred little devils. Under the dense fire network of the fighters, less than 50 people fell tightly, and all of them lay on the ground and began to shoot at the fighters on the mountain beam. And the three phalanxes behind the more than 100 little devils, after seeing the first phalanx receiving the attack, stopped attacking one after another, and sent their own squadron grenadiers, light machine gunners to start long-range fire suppression.

"Boom, boom, boom" Just as the soldiers, under the cover of heavy machine guns, were firing at the troops below the mountain, a violent explosion sounded on the right flank of their position. The explosion was followed by a wail of pain. Hearing the unusual presence of his position, the commander of the third battalion immediately stopped shooting and looked towards the place where the explosion was heard.

I don't know if I don't look at it, but when I look at it, cold sweat begins to break out on the forehead of the third battalion commander. It turned out that one of his heavy machine-gun positions was attacked by enemy grenadiers. After the explosion just now, there were three or four corpses of soldiers lying on the entire position, and a heavy machine gun mounted on the position also became crumbling in the explosion just now, and it would turn into a pile of parts at any time.

"The grenadiers of the bad little devils began to return fire, and immediately ordered the various machine-gun positions to prohibit shooting in a place to be slaughtered. Shoot a volley of bullets, change places, and quickly deliver the order," the commander of the third battalion commanded loudly. However, it was still too late, because next to the heavy machine-gun position that had just exploded, another violent explosion sounded, and a heavy machine-gun position was once again enveloped in thick smoke.

However, this time it was very lucky, although several grenades landed next to the heavy machine gun, but none of the shells actually hit. Although two heavy machine gun shooters were killed, the heavy machine guns were indeed intact. The fighters lying next to the heavy machine gun position, as the smoke cleared, immediately reacted, and quickly lifted the heavy machine guns that could be shelled and blown up again at any time from the position.

A brigade of military standards, dozens of grenadiers, under the order of the brigade commander, were all concentrated behind the first squadron. Grenades began to be fired one after another at the heavy machine gun positions on the mountain beams, which were constantly spewing tongues of fire, in an attempt to destroy these heavy machine guns that the Imperial Army was very afraid of. However, after successfully destroying the two heavy machine guns on the position of the Eighth Route Army, the other heavy machine gun positions have already received orders from the battalion commander.

Therefore, often a heavy machine gun hits one position for less than a minute, and then hurriedly moves to the next position. The grenadiers of the Yue Army, on the other hand, had just taken aim at the heavy machine gun positions of the Eighth Route Army in a matter of one minute. However, by the time the grenade hit the ground, the heavy machine-gun emplacements were empty.

However, with this constant transfer, the heavy machine guns took care, but the density of fire on the position was reduced by at least half. Suddenly, the heavy firepower density, which was still equal to that of the Yue army just now, suddenly underwent earth-shaking changes. Under the frantic strafing of the army's 12 heavy machine guns and more than a dozen light machine guns, the soldiers were suddenly overwhelmed by this dense fire net, let alone shooting.

Countless warriors had just peeked out of the trenches where they were hiding, when they were immediately hit by a dense rain of bullets and fell in pools of blood. And the rest of the soldiers, seeing their comrades lying in pools of blood one by one, and the recruits who had not experienced any battle, showed fear and retracted their heads from the edge of the trenches.

In the end, under the frantic counterattack of the army's grenadiers, heavy machine guns and other weapons. As the battle continued, the advantages that the third battalion of the Reading Force Regiment had just now were lost, and the bad news reached the ears of the third battalion commander one after another. In less than five minutes of fire, the two companies that held on to the ridge paid the loss of two platoons of casualties. More importantly, having lost the cover of heavy machine guns, the fighters simply could not organize the fire of a counterattack.

"Battalion commander, the little devil's heavy machine gun hit so hard that the soldiers couldn't show their heads at all. Now we can't shoot many bullets on our position at all, and we are simply being pressed and beaten by little devils" Seeing that the fresh lives disappeared in an instant, the company commander clenched his fists tightly, and said helplessly.

"Battalion commander, we must find a way to eliminate the grenadiers of the army. Otherwise, our third battalion will not be able to hold out at all, and it will not even last for half an hour, the battalion commander, and the casualties of the soldiers will be too great if the artillery company behind us is used," the second company commander reminded tentatively.

"That's right, the artillery company, we still have the artillery company, how did I forget this. Communicator, immediately connect me to the phone number of the artillery company in the village, and quickly "After listening to the advice of the second company commander, the third battalion commander could no longer see the worried look just now, but became full of excitement, and ordered loudly to the communicator behind him.

"Battalion commander, the phone has been connected" In less than a few seconds, the voice of a communicator came from a tunnel less than five meters away from the third battalion commander.

"Hey, is it an artillery company? I am the commander of the third battalion" The commander of the third battalion went into the tunnel, took the phone from the communicator's hand, and shouted loudly into the microphone.

"Report to the third battalion commander, we are an artillery company, please instruct" Soon, the excited voice of the artillery company commander came from the microphone. Because, when you receive a call from the front, it means that your artillery company can participate in the battle. Participating in the battle is a very exciting thing for these artillery companies who are protected like treasures by the regiment commander.

"Company Commander Wang, now the little devil's grenadier is very rampant, you have to find a way, face his grenadier position, come and shoot a few times, and kill the little devil's grenadier for me. How, are there any difficulties? The third battalion commander didn't talk nonsense and asked directly.

"Battalion Commander Li, the regiment commander said before the war, and now all the artillery companies are under your command. You can rest assured, the artillery company guarantees to complete the task, please report the coordinates of the little devil's artillery position to me, and we can fire shells" As soon as the third battalion commander finished speaking, the excited and confident answer of the commander of the artillery company Wang came from the microphone.

"Good instructor, you tell the artillery company the coordinates of the position of the little devil's grenadier barrel. Also, report the coordinates of the little devil's heavy machine gun position, let the artillery company finish cleaning up the little devil's grenadiers, and then pack up their heavy machine guns to let the little devil know, our reading regiment also has artillery" The third battalion commander handed the phone to the instructor next to him, scolded hatefully, and returned to the position full of gunsmoke.

"The battalion commander's little devil has started to charge again, we can't resist it" As soon as the third battalion commander got out of the tunnel, the eager voice of the second company commander came. Hearing this, the third battalion commander was also anxious, and quickly bowed his body, ran to the edge of the trench, and poked his head out.

I saw more than a hundred little devils, under the cover of heavy machine guns, grenadiers. Receiving almost no resistance from the soldiers, they had already rushed through the valley pass under the mountain beam. More than a hundred little devils, bent over, rushed towards their positions in dense formation. At first glance, it looks like a dense swarm of locusts, overwhelmingly inserting into their fragile defense line.

"It's not good, the little devil came up comrades, prepare a grenade to throw a grenade" Seeing that the position was less than fifty meters away from the little devil left. The third battalion commander couldn't help but be afraid for a while, and countless cold sweats broke out from his forehead. However, after the shock, the third battalion commander still reacted in the shortest possible time and shouted loudly to the soldiers around him.

Immediately, the fighters who could hear the voice of the third battalion commander put down their rifles in their hands. Pulling out the grenade, he pulled the string and flicked his arm violently. One by one, the grenades slashed a beautiful parabola, flew out of the position with a whistling sound, and smashed into the pile of little devils who were dreaming in vain.

One grenade two grenades gradually, in addition to the machine gun shooter, sharpshooter. The fighters who were able to move on the positions began to throw grenades. One by one, in less than a few seconds, hundreds of grenades had fallen in the middle of the formation of more than a hundred little devils, setting off countless blood rains in front of the soldiers' positions, blowing down pieces of little devils

The smoke cleared. More than a hundred little devils, who were still invincible just now, after being intercepted by the fighters with two rounds of grenades. There was less than a squad of soldiers left, and without any hesitation, they retreated a distance of dozens of meters in a hurry, withdrew from the range of the soldiers' grenades, lay on the ground again, and began to shoot at the fighters, waiting for the arrival of reinforcements behind them.

However, they did not wait for reinforcements behind them, but they waited for 12 shells from the artillery battery. Just as a squad of little devils lying on the ground and the soldiers on the mountain beam began to shoot at each other, a violent whistling sound reached everyone's ears. And then 12 guns popped out above the grenadier position behind the little devil.

The 12 shells of "Boom Boom" landed accurately on the enemy's position, and the violent explosion sound made the soldiers lying in the trenches hear it clearly. And just when the little devil dodged the first round of shelling and was about to transfer the grenadiers, the second round of shells smashed again. The dozens of little devils who had just rushed out of the smoke of gunpowder had not yet reacted from the shock, and they were once again shrouded in gunsmoke, and their lives and deaths were unknown.

"How can the Eighth Route Army have artillery on the Eight Grid Yalu Road, quickly, order the mountain artillery brigade to immediately return fire, and the artillery units of the Eighth Route Army must be eliminated." Seeing one of his grenadier positions, it disappeared in less than 5 rounds of artillery shelling from the Eighth Route Army. Wing Commander Yuichiro Nagano, who had been supervising the battle in the back, gritted his teeth with hatred and shouted an order to a herald beside him.

"Hi, Your Excellency Wing Commander" the herald hurriedly took the order. However, a few minutes passed, and the wing commander did not wait for his mountain artillery brigade to return fire, and the artillery target of the Eighth Route Army on the position had been transferred to his heavy machine gun position. After a few heavy artillery shots from the Eighth Route Army, his heavy machine gun position was also thrown into disarray. In less than a few minutes, two heavy machine guns were blown to pieces. The remaining ten heavy machine guns, under the threat of artillery fire from the Eighth Route Army, almost fired a single shot, and it was impossible to provide any fire support to the infantry lying in front of the enemy's position.

"Why don't the Baga Mountain Artillery Brigade fight back, I'm going to shoot their captain Ba Ge Yalu" The wing leader's hands had already been tightly clenched into fists, and he shouted loudly at the staff officers around him. But no one could give him a reason, and at this moment, the herald who had just run to deliver the order ran out of breath in front of Yuichiro Nagano.
