Behind the third brigade, on a low earth slope and beside a yellow earth cliff, under the construction of the engineering team, a simple hidden headquarters rose from the ground.
Nobuyuki Sakata came to the headquarters and instructed the communication troops to immediately establish a communication center, "Hayaku, get communication with the brigade as soon as possible!".
"Hi! Your Excellency, Wing Commander!", the communication soldiers quickly began to debug the radio and pulled up the communication antenna.
At this time, the staff brought news that the Third Battalion had applied for artillery strikes. Nobuyuki Sakata agreed to the Third Battalion's request without much thought.
"Command the Artillery Squadron to continue to provide fire support to the Third Battalion and clear its path forward!"
In less than half an hour, the Third Battalion of the Little Devils was ready to attack. The ammunition of its machine gun squadron and artillery squadron had been replenished. The half-disabled Fourth Squadron was temporarily placed under the command of the Fifth Squadron, and the frontal attack on the New Battalion continued. Regimental position.
"The Sixth Squadron is responsible for attacking the flanks, the attack begins!" As Major Fukuda waved his command knife and issued the attack order, the five or six hundred little Japanese were organized into a charging formation and pressed towards the new regiment's position.
Putting down the telescope, Li Yunlong shouted loudly, "Hide well for me. When the little devils come up later, no one is allowed to wet their pants. Show off our new momentum and kill these little devils for me!".
Suddenly, there were loud shouts and artillery fire on the position. The soldiers held their guns tightly in their hands and stared fiercely at the approaching little Japanese in silence.
A few minutes later, the shelling stopped, and despite the sporadic artillery attacks from the third group, the new regiment opened up its light and heavy machine gun fire and started a confrontation with the Japs.
"Da da da, da da da da da,..."
"Er Niu! Ammunition, give me ammunition!"
"It's a grenade! Old Wang, get out of the way!"
"boom!"
Zhuzi showed his power again, two men and one cannon, suppressing the grenade and machine gun firepower of a group.
The frontal pressure of the new regiment's position was the greatest. The first line of defense was defended by the 1st, 3rd and 6th companies, which suffered the most casualties.
Zhang Dabiao was holding a Czech light machine and roaring angrily, "First company commander, give me all your money, I can't stand it today!"
The company commander gave the order and immediately sent people to distribute all the ammunition he had in reserve, "Hand grenades, grenades, hurry up, give them all to me!"
"Kill the chicken and give it to me!"
"Locust on board!"
"Bombardment! Bombardment!"
At this time, the minefield of the new regiment was basically covered by the Fourth Squadron. The Fifth Squadron, which had sufficient manpower, directly sent four teams of nearly two hundred Japanese soldiers, and under the cover of machine guns and artillery, launched a charge offensive!
"Boom! Boom!...", there are always a few unlucky little devils stepping on the remaining mines, which disrupts the little devils' charging formation to a certain extent.
Under the full counterattack of the New Regiment, the Little Japs charged into the front hundred meters of the position at the expense of many casualties, but the casualties of the New Regiment were only high.
This group of little devils is indeed extraordinary. Not to mention the firepower and precise shooting that far exceeds that of the new group. Even when charging, the little devils still maintain certain smooth tactical movements and do not blindly charge to death.
In just a hundred meters, it only takes a few breaths for the little devil to rush into the enemy's position.
Zhang Dabiao kept a clear mind and ran in the trench with his waist down, "Grenade, throw the grenade, throw all the grenades at hand to me! Pay attention to your body shape!".
On the first line of defense, more than a hundred soldiers who were assigned grenades quickly threw the grenades while hiding their bodies. Within a few seconds, at least three grenades were thrown by one person.
"Grenade! Grenade!"
"Get out of here!"
"Locust on board!"
The little devil rushed very fast and just entered the forty or fifty meters in front of the position. Within the throwing range of the grenade, the grenade fell head-on.
"Boom boom boom boom..."
More than three hundred grenades exploded into a dusty isolation zone forty to fifty meters in front of the position, and more than a small group of Japanese soldiers were directly wiped out.
After rushing out of the smoke and dust, the remaining more than a hundred little Japs had already rushed to the position shouting "Locust board" and were about to engage in hand-to-hand combat.
However, unlike other troops, the New Regiment was not timid at all when faced with the little Japanese who were better at bayonet fighting.
Zhang Dabiao was from the 29th Army Swordsman Team, especially the soldiers of the 1st and 3rd companies who were all Zhang Dabiao's true descendants.
Even before the kid rushed into the trench, Zhang Dabiao slammed his hat and pulled out the big knife from behind, "Brothers! Let the kid know who is the ancestor of hand-to-hand combat! Charge with me! Kill the kid!!!" .
Zhang Dabiao jumped out of the trench and rushed into the enemy group. The soldiers also roared and charged, engaging in bloody and fierce hand-to-hand combat with the little devils.
"Aha!"
"Keng! Bah!" Zhang Dabiao roared, and the blade of his foot slashed diagonally at the side of his feet, swinging away the three-eight block that was stabbed in a straight line, and the little devil's middle door opened wide.
Zhang Dabiao flipped back and wiped the little devil's neck with the blade. Suddenly, the little devil's neck split open and blood spurted out freely.
"Xinei!"
Another little Japs screamed and stabbed Zhang Dabiao. Zhang Dabiao said with quick eyes and hands, "Humph!" He was so angry that he grabbed the barrel of Sanba Gai's gun with his left hand and slashed with his right hand. The little Japs lost an arm.
Lifting his kick and kicking away the howling little devil, Zhang Dabiao inserted his backhand into the little devil's heart.
"Kill!!!"
Seeing the hand-to-hand combat ahead, the captain of the fifth squadron immediately dispatched the remaining two squads, "Hayaku! Destroy the enemy! Give me the rabbit!".
The little Japs No. 100 rushed into the melee frantically, and the pressure on the new regiment suddenly increased.
"Come on!"
"Kill!"
"Hold on, battalion commander!" It was the replaced second company, who took a short rest and came back to fight again.
Shouting to kill Zhentian, our soldiers gradually gained the upper hand. The little devil could not withstand the pressure and took the lead in retreating.
Zhang Dabiao counterattacked for a while, then gave up when he was ready. Taking advantage of the fact that the Japs were not completely out of the battle and the opponent's machine guns and artillery could not function, he took the opportunity to collect some guns and ammunition, and immediately ran back to the trenches with the soldiers. .
Seeing the defeat of the Fifth Squadron, the Sixth Squadron, which was feinting on both wings, also had no choice but to retreat, and the Third Battalion's offensive was suspended.
Through the telescope, Major Fukuda looked at the more than a hundred corpses left in front of the new regiment's position, his expression extremely ugly. In just over an hour, nearly a squadron of soldiers were killed. This is simply a shame!
Although the casualties of the new regiment were greater, that was only because their own side had the advantage in firepower, and now they were defeated in hand-to-hand combat by Tubalu, who was short of food and clothing.
Major Fukuda cursed loudly. He came from a samurai family, and he often felt proud of the Third Battalion's high level of hand-to-hand combat in front of his colleagues. This time he was really embarrassed.
"Baga Yalu! It's a disgrace to the Locust Army! After I go back, strengthen bayonet fighting training for me! Use Chinese prisoners of war!".
At this time, Nobutetsu Sakata from the rear noticed this side. Compared with the Fourth Battalion that divided its forces to attack both sides, the Third Battalion's offensive was unusually slow and has not achieved certain results so far.
