"I heard it all! There will be another concentrated fire from the artillery in ten minutes. There are not many little Japs on the opposite position. We must take advantage of this artillery attack to capture the position no matter what. Do you understand it!?"
"clear…!"
On the forward position, the commander of the second battalion of the first main regiment of the third division was doing the final mobilization. The surrounding soldiers were holding weapons and hiding behind bunkers, keeping their bodies as low as possible. Everyone's eyes were fixed on the smoke-filled In front of.
There was a depression in front, with not much place to cover. Several armored car wrecks were still lying there burning with fire and thick smoke. Countless corpses were randomly scattered around, including those of the Japanese army and soldiers of the Third Division. All this shows how fierce the battle that just happened was.
"I'm afraid these little turtles are still hiding in those mouse holes..."
Kaname was half lying on the sandbag, his palms holding the telescope were full of sweat, and his slightly twitching eyelids showed his uneasy heart.
The Japanese position a few hundred meters away seemed to be close at hand, but the seemingly unmanned defense line was unpredictable.
In the past two hours, the regiment has organized four offensives, but the resistance of the Japs was extremely fierce. Each time they failed, and the number of casualties continued to soar. Nearly a battalion of soldiers had been lost. combat effectiveness.
The situation has become a bit stalemate, and the other offensive directions are progressing relatively smoothly, but the gap has been unable to be opened here, which also makes it impossible for the entire offensive circle to close up and continue to move forward.
Although the terrain and environment were not conducive to the attack, Kaname knew very well that this was not an excuse to stagnate.
"Captain, division headquarters phone number."
Upon hearing this, Kaname quickly got up from the ground and rushed into the command post with rapid strides. The soldier handed the microphone over, but at this time he was a little frightened. Looking at the microphone in front of him, he didn't dare to reach out to pick it up.
"Captain?" the communications soldier reminded again.
There was no other way, so Kaname gritted his teeth and picked up the phone: "Reporter, I..."
"It's crazy! Are your fucking balls soft? Why haven't you penetrated the bayou position yet!? Do you want me to come over and teach you how to fight?"
As soon as his face came up, Long Wenwen's roar came from the receiver. He was so frightened that he couldn't help but tremble, and he quickly moved the receiver away.
"Fuck, are you mute?"
"Uh, Commander... the little Japanese resisted too tenaciously, and our intelligence was wrong. There was more than one brigade on the Hekou position. At least there were more than 3,000 Japanese troops..."
"I don't want to hear these nonsense. The heavy artillery brigade is working hard to support your group, but you are telling me this?"
It's embarrassing. Of the three attacking forces, we were the most impressive. Although the Japanese army also felt uncomfortable, no matter how much they said they didn't attack within the prescribed time, it was useless.
When he thought of so many brothers dying, Kaname began to feel angry, with a hint of anger in his tone:
"Damn it, damn it, don't stand and talk without hurting your back. They still have a lot of tunnels to hide in. The heavy artillery brigade's bombardment won't have much effect at all. I only have two thousand people to fight against a Japanese coalition that is stuck in the fortifications. Team, isn’t this trying to force others to do something difficult!?”
So far, the first main regiment has lost six to seven hundred people. Almost all companies and platoons have suffered casualties. The little Japanese on the opposite side will only die more, but Kaname does not want to use this desperate fighting method. , It’s not worth it to ask your brothers to exchange their lives for the sake of more than 3,000 Japanese people.
"..." Long Wenwen on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and then his tone softened slightly and he said: "Hey... you are angry at me and don't want to do it anymore? Do you believe that I will kill you?"
"Huh..." Kaname took a deep breath, stood up straight as if he had made some decision, and said decisively: "I will personally lead the next wave of attacks. If you keep an eye on me, if you can't get in... I won't come back. Got it!"
Long Wenwen's face darkened. If it weren't for the distance, he would have really wanted to go along the phone line and slap this kid, but he had such a rude attitude.
"Stop pretending to be a big-tailed wolf for me. Let me tell you, Chief of Staff Fang has passed now. Just follow his command."
"Chief of Staff Fang is here?" Kaname was surprised and asked hurriedly.
"That's right, I'm going to give you a big gift later and ask your people to fully cooperate with Chief of Staff Fang. If you still can't win the position this time, you can find a trap to bury yourself!"
Beep, beep, beep...
After saying that, he hung up the phone. His mind was full of questions. What kind of gift was it? It was so mysterious. But since Fang Jingyao was here, it must be that the higher-ups had found a way to break through the Japanese position.
Just when he was stunned, a soldier rushed in from outside: "Report to the regiment leader, Chief of Staff Fang has brought a team of people over, do you think?"
"Look at the hammer, let them come over quickly... Forget it, I will go there myself." Kaname calmed down and decided to go out to greet them.
Not far after leaving the command post, he saw Fang Jingyao entering the position with a large group of troops. Kaname hurriedly went up to say hello, but saw that most of the people on the other side were wearing gas masks and didn't say much. They were ready to enter. Looking at the position, a chilling air emerged spontaneously.
"Fang...Chief of Staff Fang, what are you doing..." Kaname widened his eyes and asked hurriedly.
"Have your people retreat two kilometers to free up the forward positions. Also withdraw all observation posts and let the special agent battalion I brought over take over." Fang Jingyao said in a deep voice with his hands behind his back.
"Ah? Why? All my units are ready for battle. Didn't I say that the heavy artillery brigade is about to launch a round of artillery bombardment to cover the attack? Don't worry, I will personally lead the team this time and guarantee to take down the position!"
Kaname vowed to beat his chest, thinking that he was not convinced that he wanted to withdraw their first main regiment and replace it with other troops to attack the mouth of the river.
Looking at that nervous and anxious look, Fang Jingyao couldn't help but smile and shake his head. How could he not know what the other party meant? He comforted and gave orders: "You misunderstood. The heavy artillery brigade has other arrangements. Evacuation." We are here to ensure your safety."
"Guarantee our safety? ...What exactly is the mission to be performed?" Kaname asked curiously.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, and don't tell what you shouldn't talk about!" Fang Jingyao's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he ordered sternly: "I remember that the group should all be equipped with gas masks, right? Let all your people wear them. , retreated two kilometers away and stood by."
Gas mask? Two kilometers away? Secret service camp? There is a weirdness in each of these words, but the cleverness is obvious if it is numb. Is this to...
"Go ahead and execute the order!"
"yes!"
At the same time, at the artillery brigade position seven or eight kilometers away, a heavy truck wrapped tightly in black cloth parked next to the artillery. A dozen soldiers wearing gas masks and chemical protective suits were carefully unloading it. There were boxes of metal boxes printed with special words, and strange warheads with foreign characters all over them were taken out.
Most of the artillerymen stood aside and watched these people working quietly. The home field that originally belonged to them could only wait and look forward to it.
It wasn't that they didn't want to go up and help, but that the superiors had given orders that, except for those who were wrapped up tightly, all unrelated personnel were prohibited from approaching those black iron boxes.
"Sir, we are ready to start." The soldier in chemical protective clothing saluted a lieutenant colonel officer who was also dressed in the same uniform and reported.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
The lieutenant colonel returned the salute, turned around and walked straight towards the crowd dozens of meters away.
"Brigadier Li, we are ready. Please arrange for five 105mm howitzers, have the corresponding artillerymen wear chemical protective suits and gas masks, and my people will guide them in loading."
Yu Sifan took off his gas mask, and beads of sweat fell from his forehead. It could be seen that he was not relaxed at all at this time.
"Okay, then who...Krupp, go and arrange five cannons for Battalion Commander Yu, eh...? Damn fat man! Don't fucking look at me, hurry up!"
Li Liansheng, who had been watching the excitement for a long time, agreed wholeheartedly. When he turned around, he saw that Krupp was still standing next to him with his butt raised, not hearing what others were saying. He was so angry that he jumped up and kicked him, which made him angry. Everyone laughed.
Yu Sifan was not amused by this ridiculous scene, but looked seriously at his men and those strange biochemical warheads.
Li Liansheng glanced at him and seemed to see that the other party was very nervous, so he pretended to be relaxed and sat on it, saying, "Brother, is it necessary to have such a big battle? I used poison gas bombs in Mangshi before. Don’t worry.”
"This is not an ordinary chemical bomb. Jun Zuo repeatedly ordered us to disassemble and assemble it carefully, because this thing is more terrifying than the Japanese mustard bombs."
"What the hell are you talking about? Is it that powerful?"
Li Liansheng couldn't believe it. In his mind, mustard gas was already considered a very terrifying thing. It could kill a large area when exploded. If it was more terrifying, what would it be like?
Yu Sifan smiled helplessly, recalling in his mind the creepy words Liao Mingyu told him: "Its name... is Tabeng!"
