The 74th Army has experienced too many vicious battles, and has a lot of experience in trench excavation, and there are many rear passages behind the defense line, and they are also dug very wide, so as to repeatedly fight, and the Japanese army immediately occupies the surface position and enters the trench, but because it is not familiar with the passage and lacks means of communication, it is not easy to immediately organize attack and defense. On the contrary, the Chinese army used the communication trenches in all directions to attack in the trenches, and the Japanese direct artillery could not play a role.

Of course, if Zhang Lingfu does not sacrifice the suicide squad, relying only on the complete system and a large number of Stearns*, he may be able to complete the defense, but the role of the death squad seems to be concentrated on the spiritual level, which not only boosts his own morale, but also counteracts the arrogance of the opponent.

The commander of the Watanabe Division watched the progress through a telescope, and after the battle between the two sides entered a deep ditch, he could not see it clearly. It was only found that several suicide bombings blocked their ranks, and then the enemy seemed to have launched a counterattack.

He had a premonition that the enemy's surface machine gun positions had indeed been knocked out by himself, but the enemy's automatic fire had not decreased'He had seen many Chinese troops use Mauser pistol teams to build pit support at the last moment, but this unit seemed to have mastered a lot*? He suddenly realized that fighting in such a narrow area, his artillery fire and the advantage of the troops in white-knuckle assassination seemed to be greatly limited.

Deputy Commander Guo Wenchu rushed over with the team, and he himself tied seven or eight *, originally planning to find a devil to pile up and crash over to set an example, but the situation has undergone some unexpected changes.

Just now when he turned the fork in the road and bumped into a small group of enemies, less than ten meters away, the devil shouted to rush over and stab, he pulled the * string off, but in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen devils were knocked down by the brothers behind him. He was stunned for a moment before he realized that the * on his body was emitting white smoke, so he quickly pulled it out and threw it into the pile of corpses, killing several seriously injured* people.

Immediately he realized that he didn't have to kill himself to gain the upper hand, and that the enemy was still fierce, but the training and tactical advantages were gone. He recalled the scene just now like a slow motion, the enemy opened his mouth, showed a mouthful of white teeth and rushed to kill, and then swayed from side to side like rags, falling to the ground, as if the guy in his hand was the reason. He had also led a team of short guns to fight in the trenches before, and he could usually only block one or two, and the ones behind him would definitely be able to rush to him.

The original 173 Regiment was only equipped with two platoons of * in the company directly under the regiment headquarters, and the German-made flower mechanism used was basically an upgrade of the original pistol team, which was used as a regimental headquarters alert unit, and sometimes it was also used to rescue emergencies and make up for the firepower gap in the insufficient section of the machine gun, but now the death squad has a Stern * for each manpower, which is a luxury that was unimaginable before. He glanced down at Stern*, this ugly thing was pretty good.

He saw this ugly weapon for the first time when he was looking through the warehouses of the British army yesterday, and at that time he couldn't believe that this was something that the British could make, it was completely like something from a blacksmith's shop, worse than the burning stick made by Yan Laoxi. But at this moment, he suddenly felt that this ugly gun became kind, and he might not have to die with the devil so early.

The team followed him and slowly moved forward, stepping on the bombed messy corpses of the enemy, and could hear the Japanese talking not far away, looking hoarse, although they couldn't understand, but the enemy began to get used to it?

"Brothers, listen, don't be in a hurry to send it."

"Yes, sir, this thing is bigger than a flower machine."

"Well, with 9mm bullets, the enemy can't rush close. I counted to three, threw the bombs together, and then rushed over, crouching in the front row and standing in the back to fire fire. ”

"Understood."

Several of the pacesetters leaned against the edge of the trench, pulled out the strings together, and then looked at each other and did not throw them. This German * must have been designed by a chronic sub-design, from the time of pulling the string to the time of the explosion...... For about seven seconds, the veteran's concentration could watch it burn in his hand for about four seconds. Another disadvantage is that it is not thrown too far, but the advantage is that it is very powerful, and the Japanese fragmentation type* is not as effective in trenches as it is.

Several * were thrown together, and immediately the screams of the Japanese were heard in the trench a few meters away, and they began to look for a place to hide. The Chinese soldiers held * and began a counteroffensive. * Explosions one after another, and hot waves of air surged in the trench that swirled around in seven or eight rounds.

The Japanese who was lying on the ground with smoke looked up, and when he saw someone coming behind the smoke, he didn't know friend or foe, so he shouted. When the death squad arrived, they split their heads and strafed, and it was basically impossible to rush to the front to show the basic skills of assassination in front of such fierce firepower. In the blink of an eye, another machine gun crew was taken out.

Zhang Lingfu supplemented the follow-up troops. He got a lot of * and British helmets from the warehouse, so many that there were no numbers - the officer in charge of the statistics was killed by the Japanese plane, but he didn't care, he sent it down and did it.

Division Commander Zhang found that the situation had stabilized a little later than the Watanabe government, and he originally only wanted the death squad to resist the enemy for a while, so as to repair the second and third directions, but the battle began to extend to the enemy's side, and the Japanese artillery had already entered the position, but he was watching.

At the same time, Chu Tingchang, who was 200 kilometers away, had already broken away from the brigade and turned to the west. Battalion Commander Chu did not carry out the task given to him by Du Yuming, because there were not many enemy troops behind, but Commander Du in a panic did not know, and issued an order based on complete conjecture.

He had to avoid roads occupied by other troops to avoid being blocked by Japanese planes, and he didn't believe that the military department could arrange gas and ammunition for him, which Brooke found prescient; Because Brooke received information from Stilwell, Mandalay was in disarray, and before the headquarters was withdrawn, Japanese spies had begun to cause trouble in the city, and the intelligence system was completely paralyzed. In the past ten hours, the whereabouts of the enemy outside the city and the change of numbers can only be guessed, so Brooke is also in favor of the synthetic battalion acting independently, not being dragged down by the command headquarters that has a black eye and orders from hundreds of kilometers.

Sure enough, Chu Tingchang's foresight had always worked, and Zhou Youfu relied on his amazing sense of smell to find the British's hidden fuel and ammunition warehouse again.

On the Allied staff's map, the warehouse near the Monywa mines did not exist, and it is clear that the British must have had it on their map. Now the synthetic battalion is stopped here, and it is not going anywhere, Chu Tingchang knows that there will be no more supplies to the east, and there are no roads to the north and west, this is the reality of Myanmar's geography, and the mechanized troops must play their final role here, and it is impossible to take away every piece of equipment, and then ...... Most of them are going to India to rearm.

He envisaged a change of situation, which would be of paramount importance, and that the enemy's hot pursuit, despite the setbacks and the loss of a lieutenant general, would be the strategic priority of eliminating all retreats of the expeditionary force, as was evident. So from now on, it is necessary to reserve a path for the Chinese army to push towards India. In the original history, Sun Liren's department retreated to India from the mountains behind him.

Lin Xiuxuan's special team quickly moved east to see if it could play any role. It is gratifying that a disgruntled regiment of the 74th Army actually held Lashio for a day and a night, which made the battle situation even more confusing.

Far away in the South Pacific, the aircraft carrier Fengxiang, escorted by four Aoba-class heavy cruisers, suddenly and boldly advanced southward, directly through the narrow Chomad waterway, deliberately making the nearby US and Australian troops aware of its presence. The aircraft carrier launched a series of attacks on Moresby, and then on the Allied base in Townsville, Queensland, using all its resources to provoke the Allies to come to the door. But instead of taking the bait, the U.S. fleet attacked the port of Bougainville Shoreland, which was at the forefront of the Japanese defense, apparently with a free set of intentions.

The command team of 419 hid at the bottom of the sea to accurately grasp every move of both sides, except in the air. It seems that Yamamoto's wishful thinking did not work out, and most of the suggestions to lure the enemy to the vicinity of Guinea and destroy them were made by Asano, because he thinks that he can correspond to all uncertain futures according to the established history, but now it seems that the problems caused by the lack of a fight for the Solomon Islands have also emerged. Fletcher may have had his own ideas, and he felt that saving Australia or MacArthur was not his job, or that it was not his first priority.

"It looks like the Americans are less keen on annihilating the Japanese aircraft carriers?" The commissar was the first to speak, "If that's the case, we'll have peace of mind." ”

"Yes, once history changes, it will not simply evolve according to the logic that the traveler envisioned. It can be seen that the deployment of the Japanese side is very targeted, but the US military has not followed up. Shuping, what do you think? ”

"Me? I didn't look at it much. Shu Ping said absentmindedly.

"So what are you thinking? Still thinking about the tactics of the enemy's seaplanes? ”

"Yes, I'm sure that's part of battlefield surveillance. I suggest sending a drone up into the sky at night to see what the hell they're up to, and also to spy on ourselves, I'm always worried that if we keep the antenna deep, we might be seen by passing planes, and the water here is very transparent, so we have to guard against it. ”

"I agree. It's always good to be on the lookout. ”

"Report to the captain, the enemy's 5th Sentai is coming east, and it is very fast, it seems that it is looking for the Yorktown-class aircraft carrier that is attacking Shortland. Fastest night in the Trobrien Islands. ”

"Look, if you want to do it directly, there is no foreplay for the small aircraft carrier to lure the enemy, then we will also go over and join in the fun," Cheng Dayang said, "By the way...... Shuping, aren't you worried about those seaplanes, the Naxi planes all took off from the Shortland base, let's go see what's going on. ”

"Is it to conduct a drone reconnaissance first, and then approach a possible theater of operations? There will be many rounds of mutual testing before an aircraft carrier engagement, and we don't have to rush too much. Shu Ping said.

"Wait one more day, you may miss a good opportunity, anyway, tonight, we just take off a drone."

Cheng Dayang made a decision, and Shu Ping no longer insisted. Of course, in his stomach, he still faintly felt that something was wrong, because the drone released at night would wander in the air autonomously during the first day, unable to establish communication with the submarine, and it had to land the next night before he could see what it photographed, and for 419, who was eager to get close to the battlefield, there was a period of information gap. He also felt that he was a little unfounded, the information advantage of 419 in this battlefield was huge, although it was still unknown whether it could reverse the world war, but there was no problem in leading the naval war.

Of course, he was also sure that if the 4-engine seaplanes had been changed under the direction of the traverser, he could see it at a glance.
