Major Fujita was staring at the battlefield and was in a very good mood.

The troops captured nine defense lines of the National Salvation Army in just one morning. Standing here, you can already see the shadow of Zhangzhuang Town, which means that the troops can attack for a while and kill them all...

"Sir, there is good news from the offensive troops!" The deputy captain walked over with a smile on his face.

"We can break through the three defense lines of the National Salvation Army and break into Zhangzhuang Town and fight the National Salvation Army."

"Forget the final battle, they are not qualified!" Major Fujita snorted coldly and replied.

"The troops started attacking yesterday afternoon. Although the casualties were a bit serious, the losses of the National Salvation Army were no less than ours."

"After capturing the last three lines of defense, do you think the National Salvation Army still has troops to fight us?"

"I only have one worry now: if the remaining troops of the National Salvation Army know that Zhangzhuang cannot defend, they will take risks, give up Zhangzhuang Town, divide their troops to break through, and hide in the mountains."

"The Eighth Route Army has a saying: A spark can start a prairie fire. If we do not completely wipe out the national rescue army and someone escapes, they will definitely continue to cause trouble and cause great destruction in pacification."

The deputy captain agreed: "The chief is wise. If I were the commander of the National Salvation Army, I would definitely choose to divide the troops and break through."

"If you stay in the green mountains, you won't be afraid of burning firewood. Only when someone lives will you have hope."

Fujita's expression became more and more serious. This attack was obtained by him only when he issued a military order to his superiors, and there must be no mistakes.

The order was immediately ordered: "In order to pacify the long-term stability, the national rescue army must be wiped out completely, and no one can be let go."

"It's a waste to put the cavalry squadron behind to protect the artillery. I ordered them to bypass the battlefield and touch the back of Zhangzhuang Town. If there is really a national rescue army breaking through, there is no need to ask for instructions and just raid it!"

The deputy captain admired Fujita very much. As soon as the problem came out, he thought of a solution and quickly praised him: "Use cavalry to deal with the breakout troops of the National Salvation Army, sir, your method is great."

"As long as the National Rescue Army dares to leave the town, no matter how fast the two legs run, it is not as good as the four legs cavalry. When they come out, they will be destroyed by us."

Behind the battlefield, Zhou Cheng smiled when he saw the cavalry squadron leaving the artillery position.

More than an hour ago, the Japanese artillery and troops separated, and established fixed artillery positions behind the attacking troops to avoid moving around. There was only a broken infantry squad around to protect them.

This is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity to raid artillery positions.

But the Japanese cavalry squadron was so annoying that they kept guarding nearby. Zhou Cheng's idea of ​​raiding the artillery position was instantly dispelled.

Cavalry is difficult to deal with, especially on the unobstructed slopes.

Without a position, not a sufficient number of light and heavy machine guns, no matter how many infantry encounters cavalry, they will be killed.

He only has two companies in his hand, most of them are new recruits, and only six light and heavy machine guns are equipped with light and heavy machine guns. If he really wants to collide with more than 100 cavalrymen, everyone will not even have a chance to escape and will definitely die.

Seeing that one line of defense after another was occupied by the Japanese army, Zhou Cheng began to get anxious.

He even had a plan: if the cavalry squadron stayed in the artillery position and did not leave, and when the Japanese broke through the last line of defense, he could only retreat and directly led his troops into Zhangzhuang Town, gathered the remaining troops of the 1st and 2nd Battalion to defend the town, and continued to fight with the Japanese through street fighting until they forced the Japanese back.

Fortunately, the cavalry squadron left at the last moment.

More than a hundred cavalrymen rode their horses and rushed around the battlefield and rushed straight to the back of Zhangzhuang Town, with a large amount of dust rolling up behind them.

"The Japanese asked the cavalry to block the rear of the first and second battalions. Judging from this situation, they wanted to wipe out the national rescue army here in one go to prevent future troubles!" Zhou Cheng saw the Japanese's purpose at a glance.

I didn't worry too much about this issue and immediately returned to the topic: "No matter what their purpose is, as soon as the cavalry left, our opportunity came."

"I just saw that the troops can touch the left side of the artillery position under the cover of terrain."

"We're all over. After the raid begins, heavy machine guns and grenade launchers provide fire cover. Don't save me ammunition. Knock off all fire points near the artillery position in the shortest time, and then fight infantry."

"The others followed my assault artillery position. The machine gunner rushed to the front, and the seventh company followed closely behind. The nineth company ran to the end, regardless of casualties, and at any cost, after hearing the assault order, they rushed to the artillery position as fast as possible."

"Each machine gunner prepares at least two magazines in advance. When attacking, the machine gun fire cannot be cut off. Fire while rushing."

"The platoon leader equipped with pistols should be as far as possible. After the troops rushed to the artillery position fifty meters, they all fired, and used bullets to greet the remaining Japanese in the artillery position."

"After entering the artillery position, try not to fight with the Japanese bayonets. They will never use bullets if they can kill them with grenades. Japanese who can kill them with light and heavy machine guns will never use rifles. The pistol will finally end and solve the remaining enemies."

"We must also pay attention to the Japanese wounded soldiers, prevent them from detonating grenades and dying with us, prevent them from blowing up artillery and shells. Take down the artillery positions, and those treasures are ours."

After the misunderstanding about Zhou Cheng was resolved, Li Honghui seemed to see a hero when he looked at Zhou Cheng again, and his face was full of admiration.

Hearing Zhou Cheng's assault order, he decided to rescue the 12th Battalion immediately. He wanted to get on with his gun and replied loudly: "Please rest assured the battalion commander, I will personally urge the 9th Company to launch the assault."

"Although the Ninth Company is full of recruits, the enthusiasm for fighting the Japanese is no worse than that of the seven or eight companies. You will definitely not disappoint you after going to the battlefield."

"Boom..."

The Japanese artillery troops, who had been resting for less than ten minutes, joined the battle again. The moment the shells flew out of the muzzle, the white smoke generated by the combustion of the fired medicine sprayed out from the gun barrel, which was very pungent.

As soon as three or four rounds of artillery shells were fired, the artillery positions were covered with white smoke.

The gunner forced himself to resist the discomfort from his nose and shuttled through the smoke, sent the ammunition to the gun position, and pushed the gun barrel and fired it out.

Around the artillery position, more than thirty infantry were scattered among them. On a pile of soil less than three meters high, one was carrying two light machine guns on the left and one right. The machine gunners hid behind the machine guns and were ready for battle.

Several riflemen stood beside them, holding the rifle in their hands, condescendingly, staring at the surroundings with a vigilant look on their faces.

"boom……"

An explosion suddenly rang out not far from them. As the black smoke rose, a large amount of soil and turf were blown away, which scared the Japanese patrolling nearby.

This is a grenade fired by the third battalion fire platoon. Because the grenade launcher was fired very little, the grenade flew slowly and had no sound. After being bombed for no reason, the Japanese did not know where the grenade was fired from, and they thought it was a mistaken shot on the front line, without any warning.

"Boom...boom..."

The explosion sounded again. This time, six grenades hit the mound at the same time, and several grenades hit the Japanese's feet and exploded.

Several soldiers finally realized the danger and subconsciously wanted to lie down, but the grenade did not give them a chance.

In the violent explosion, people and guns were blown away. When they hit the ground, there was no movement, and there was no time to scream.

"Kill...rush..."

The shouts of the third battalion sounded on the battlefield together.

More than two hundred soldiers, like divine weapons coming from the sky, suddenly appeared next to the artillery position, shouting slogans, holding guns, and shooting chicken blood.

"Enemy attack, counterattack immediately..." Cao Chang, the nearest player in the machine gun position, shouted in horror.

"You guys go to the machine gun position. If the machine gun can still be used, shoot immediately. There are too many enemies, and only the machine gun can block them."

Chief Cao still has some combat experience and knows to look for machine guns first, but the Third Battalion did not give him this opportunity.

The grenade launcher fired two rounds of grenades into the high ground and began to bomb the infantry, handing over the blown machine gun position to the only heavy machine gun of the fire platoon.

When he saw a Japanese approaching the machine gun position, the heavy machine gun in a standby state opened fire immediately.

The dense bullets instantly covered the machine gun position, and the three Japanese were penetrated several holes as soon as they approached.

This scene was seen by the squad leader not far away and quickly ordered: "The enemy has been planning for a long time, and the machine gun position has been targeted, so don't get close to it."

"Everyone moved closer to the machine gun position and counterattacked with rifles. The enemy must not be allowed to approach the artillery position."

"The captain will send troops to reinforce us when he hears the gunshots. Everyone hold on, and we will win as soon as the reinforcements arrive!"

"Boom...boom..."

Six grenades hit the nearby area and exploded, interrupting the command that the captain had not finished yet.

The accurate head of the grenade was not high, only two hit near the crowd, overturning five Japanese devils, but it was enough for the Japanese to bear it.

At the beginning of the raid, two machine gun teams and one alert team were first bombed and destroyed. Nearly ten Japanese troops died in one go.

When checking the light machine gun, three were killed by heavy machine guns, five were killed by grenades just now, and eight more soldiers were lost in the blink of an eye.

There were only a total of more than 30 soldiers protecting the artillery, and half of them were killed or injured before they even started the counterattack. How can I fight this battle?

The squad leader rushed to the front of the machine gun position and the scene he didn't want to see appeared.

Six rounds of grenades were smashed continuously, and several lives were taken from time to time. The enemies rushing towards him kept firing, and the bullets shot several times more dense than those fired by his subordinates.

The only dozen remaining subordinates could not fight back without machine gun cover, and they didn't even have a chance to raise their heads.

As soon as they move, dozens of bullets will be shot towards them. They will be shot into sieves in an instant...

"kill……"

The national rescue army shouted and killed the squad leader became more and more anxious. He quickly contacted the artillery, hoping that they could use the shells to hold their opponents and buy themselves time for defense.

But the enemy was too close to the artillery position, and neither mortar nor mountain cannon could aim and shoot.

After a few seconds, the team leader, who was burning with eyebrows, no matter how dense the bullets shot from the other side were, forced to order.

"shooting……"

"Everyone fires, or they'll die!"

After saying that, he turned his attention behind him, hoping that the reinforcements sent by the captain could come over quickly.
Chapter completed!
