The officers and soldiers of the first battalion who discovered the target in the melee immediately charged behind the battalion commander. Just as Hu Jiaji admired Zhang Tianhai very much, this boy was fighting for his life!
Shinoda Yao, who walked out of his tent to direct the battle, soon discovered the direction of the Chinese army's attack - wasn't it the artillery that he relied on for survival?
"Ha Youku! Stop the damn China army for me immediately!!!" Shinoda Yao shouted anxiously, there is no way, if this field artillery is not protected, his captain Shinoda will commit seppuku in a few minutes...
Many times, the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is skinny. For example, when the strength is not proportional to the enemy.
On the Songhu battlefield, many times the Japanese army took advantage under the combined artillery fire of land, sea and air, but there were also a few times when the Chinese army was able to take advantage. For example, now, only Shinoda Yao is left with a guard regiment commander. If even this team is dispatched, once the wing headquarters is breached, it will be very easy.
Seeing that the enemy was about to attack, Shinoda Yao finally became anxious: If these artillery pieces were blown up, it would not make much sense to keep the wing headquarters.
"Staff Yoshizawa! Burn the confidential documents immediately. If the enemy attacks our regiment headquarters, burn the regiment flag immediately. The warriors of the rising sun cannot be captured!" Shinoda Yao ordered the staff around him with a serious look. .
"Hai! Yoshizawa will never disgrace the Imperial Warriors!" Lieutenant Yoshizawa, who looked to be only in his twenties, responded.
After Nobuta Yao gave this order, he personally led the security team to charge. For him, if the artillery was blown up or the wing headquarters was captured, even if the battle was won, he would have to commit seppuku, so He has no choice!
…
There are still thirty meters to go. As long as you can cross these thirty meters, you can throw the grenade over.
Zhang Tianhai gritted his teeth and did not stop moving the gun in his hand, but his attention was always on the artillery. As long as the Japanese artillery was blown up, that would be victory. He could not embarrass the Thirty-sixth Division. An entire army of the 69th Army came to support your battalion, and the two main battalions of the 36th Division also staged a feint attack for you. How much dignity does that mean?
What Zhang Tianhai doesn't know is that the battlefield on the north bank of the Suzhou River has now changed from a feint attack by two main battalions to a main force attack by two regiments...
The distance was getting closer step by step, but the sharp-eyed Zhang Tianhai discovered that a man with the rank of colonel from the enemy army was leading seventy or eighty people towards this side.
"The big fish has appeared!" Zhang Tianhai's eyelids twitched, and without thinking much, he directly grabbed the rifle of a soldier beside him, loaded the bullet, and aimed at the running colonel.
"Bang!" Zhang Tianhai gently pulled the trigger, and a 7.92mm caliber bullet burst out of the barrel, flashing a shining light in the night sky.
It's a pity that the shot went wrong...
At the critical moment, Shinoda Yao slowed down. He thought that he had already rushed here and the rest should be left to the soldiers. Just because of this fleeting thought, Shinoda Yao escaped the fatal blow. .
The bullet passed through Shinoda Yao's arm, leaving a mark on his clothes and arm, and then shot into the chest of a superior soldier next to him.
With no extra time to think, Shinoda Yao led the guards into the artillery position and began to fight using artillery and other items as cover. In his impatience, he did not realize that he seemed to have made a fatal mistake...
The fierce battle in Xiaoji was in full swing, but Lieutenant General Ogisu Tatehei, who was in the field, received a piece of news that made him very sad: the Sendai Regiment sent to reinforce the Artillery Regiment and Takata Regiment were encountered on the road. The Chinese army's strong blockade makes the battle situation unfavorable!
In fact, unfavorable battle conditions are inevitable. Although the equipment of the 69th Army is not as good as that of the Japanese army, especially in the ratio of light to heavy machine guns and grenade equipment, there is one advantage that should not be forgotten, that is, this is Fighting at night, and waiting for work, plus there is a bunker!
"Haga!" The angry Ogisu Tatehei slapped Oda Shinichi hard. In normal times, he would never slap Oda Chief of Staff under any circumstances. He was really too angry now, although The order to put the artillery positions in Xiaoji was given by Ogisu Tatehei, but if Oda didn't put forward this point of view, how could he put the artillery in Xiaoji?
"Hai, I made a mistake!" His face was slapped red, but Oda Shinichi just lowered his head in response and did not dare to rub it.
"Immediately call the Aizu Regiment (65th Regiment) and order them to provide immediate support. They must arrive at the field within 20 minutes to take over the defense!" Ogisu Rippei is really anxious now. If there is no artillery, he will just rely on throwing weapons. Can cartridges and mortars capture the south bank of the Suzhou River, which is heavily guarded by the Chinese army? It’s simply impossible!
"Hai!" Ozawa, the staff officer on duty, responded.
Regarding the terrain of the Suzhou River, Ogizhou Ribing has already begun to study it. It is best to rely on the terrain on the south bank to fight the blocking war. The only advantage currently is to rely on the powerful firepower of joint sea, land and air artillery to attack the Chinese on the south bank of the Suzhou River. The army carries out fire suppression, sets up machine gun positions to suppress, and then launches a strong attack. This is the best way to break through.
If the artillery is gone, it will be difficult to set up even a machine gun position, let alone suppression! The aviation bombs were also unable to carry out bombing under the guidance of artillery, so the advantage of joint sea, land and air artillery fire was almost completely lost!
Whenever he thinks of this, Ogisu Rihei wants to slap himself a few times for his arrogance. If he hadn't underestimated the group of Chinese troops on the opposite side, how could he have created the current passive situation?
"It's strange. How could the Chinese people guess that I can set up an artillery position in Xiaoji? Could it be that our radio station has been compromised?" After calming down, Ogisu Libing gently stroked his short and medium-length hair. Bearded Bear muttered.
In fact, the suddenness and hugeness of this raid led Ogisu Rihei into a dead end in thinking. After all, the concept of special operations in this era is not popular. Even if it is, only a few people understand it, and most people do not. Know what special operations is and what exactly special operations are.
In short, this surprise battle gave Ogisu Ripei the illusion that "this is a joint operation on the scale of a group army." Indeed, the enemy's central army and local army can be mobilized to cooperate with each other at the same time, and it is under their control. The radio station was not monitored at all. He had to suspect that his opponent was most likely a senior officer of the Chinese army, and this person's tactical attainments were not low!

PS: I updated it based on my ability, why do I need a eunuch? Huh, I will update a chapter overnight to slap you in the face. This is willfulness.
