Listening to the roar of the explosion in the distance, Kumamoto Okabe's fierce-looking face became even more fierce, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his narrow red phoenix eyes.
When the explosion of artillery fire was the loudest, Kumamoto Okabe raised the command sword in his hand and shouted: "Warriors of the Empire, let's charge! Kill!"
As Kumamoto Okabe waved his command sword forward, the Japanese soldiers behind him who seemed to be well prepared charged forward one after another. They looked fierce, as if nothing could stop them from charging.
This is a whole group of Japanese death squads. They want to rush to the opposite position as soon as possible and fight hard against the enemies who block their progress.
…
The Japanese army's crazy attack did put great pressure on the national army, especially Lu Shaojie's troops in front of them.
Lu Shaojie's position was covered in artillery fire, the soil was flying, broken arms and limbs were flying everywhere, and the sound of explosions resounded throughout the hillside.
"Damn, you kid, you're trying your best!" Lu Shaojie cursed fiercely. After all, the attack by the Japanese troops also caused the majority of the troops of the First Battalion of the Guard Regiment to be reduced, even reaching one-third. How terrible.
It was precisely because nearly half of the soldiers were killed or injured that Lu Shaojie was particularly anxious - if the guard battalion of the security forces behind him did not come up, he might lose his position.
If it had been a day ago, Lu Shaojie would not have been afraid of losing his position. After all, he had the "Shang Fang Sword" in his hand and could abandon his position. But things are different now. The regiment commander has given a fatal order: the 1st Battalion of the 1st Guard Regiment must not retreat before receiving the retreat order from the regiment headquarters!
After finally waiting for the artillery fire to stop, Lu Shaojie immediately led the officers and soldiers to run out of the anti-artillery position. They were about to launch a counterattack against the Japanese army!
"Hit me! Beat me hard!!" Lu Shaojie roared. For him, the current menacing Japanese army was his first priority in defense.
When all the surviving National Army soldiers were fighting back, Lu Shaojie picked up the phone and dialed the theater security force headquarters directly: "Hey, this is the position of the 1st Battalion of the 1st Guard Regiment! Pick me up right away. The former enemy headquarters of the theater guard force!!”
…
The other end of the phone was quickly connected.
The person who answered the phone was a young combat staff officer. After he answered the phone, he immediately said: "Commander Lu, please wait a moment. I will ask the commander-in-chief to answer the phone right away!"
Soon, Zhang Tianhai came to the phone, took the phone and said, "Hello, I'm Zhang Tianhai."
"Commander, please send reinforcements quickly! We have already suffered more than half of the casualties here. If you don't send people, I'm afraid the frontline position will be lost!" On the other end of the phone, Lu Shaojie was very anxious, almost crying.
"Okay, wait a minute, the security battalion will be up soon. Just hold on for another twenty minutes!" Zhang Tianhai said in a deep voice, and after saying that, he hung up the phone.
For Zhang Tianhai, his reinforcements had already been prepared and had all entered the defense line of the First Battalion of the Second Guard Regiment, which was the second line of defense that Zhang Tianhai had previously set up.
After hanging up Lu Shaojie's call, Zhang Tianhai immediately picked up the phone and dialed a number: "Hello, I'm Zhang Tianhai. Get me the second position immediately."
After the call was connected, Zhang Tianhai said directly: "I am Zhang Tianhai. Let Cao Wanshen, the commander of the security battalion of the theater guard force, answer the phone right away."
"Yes! Sir!!" the other end of the phone responded.
Soon, a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone: "Reporting to the commander-in-chief, I am Cao Wanshen, commander of the guard battalion. Please give me instructions!"
"Battle Commander Cao, I order you to immediately lead your troops to support the No. 1 position without any mistakes!" Zhang Tianhai said very seriously.
"Yes! Sir!" the other end of the phone responded.
Listening to Cao Wanshen's answer, Zhang Tianhai breathed a sigh of relief - for him, although the combat effectiveness of the guard battalion was not too strong, with Lu Shaojie and others commanding it, it could at least stabilize the frontline position for half a day to a day.
…
The camera returned to Lu Shaojie's No. 1 position.
For Lu Shaojie's troops, more than half of them were killed and injured, resulting in a large loss of positions in the unit's positions. The fire coverage could not meet the previous standards. If reinforcements did not arrive in time, I am afraid they would face a direct confrontation with the Japanese army. Possibility of hand-to-hand combat.
In fact, this was true, because after the Japanese shelling ended, they immediately shot at the charging Japanese troops.
Although Lu Shaojie's troops have suffered losses of over 10,000, they are one of the better troops in the current national army, both in terms of weapons and equipment and the quality of their soldiers.
As a result, the Japanese army's offensive momentum was curbed as soon as they launched a counterattack.
But are these Japanese troops really that weak? Especially since they are members of the "Beast Division".
The answer, of course, is no.
Facts have proved that the Japanese army's offensive momentum is not generally ferocious. Although the offensive momentum has been contained, follow-up fire support was immediately in place.
"Grenade!! Get ready!!"
"Mortar!! Get ready!!"
…
The Japanese officers were shouting that they must use such throwing weapons to suppress fire, and only in this way can they provide guarantee for the offensive of the advancing troops.
It has to be said that the technology of Little Japan is quite good. After they launched firepower to counter-suppress, the firepower on the national army positions was immediately weakened, many of which were because their targets were the hiding places of light machine gunners and heavy machine gunners. .
For a while, gunfire sounded one after another, and you came and went, but it was so lively.
"Hold on, launch an attack immediately!! Charge!! Long live the emperor's warriors!! Long live the warriors of the sunrise!!" Kumamoto Okabe raised his command sword high. He believed that the enemy army could no longer hold on. As long as his The forward troops rushed to the enemy's first line of position, and this position was taken.
After receiving orders and encouragement from Kumamoto Okabe, these Japanese officers and soldiers who had become the Japanese death squads burst out with a strong will to fight and rushed forward screaming.
"Hit me hard!! Hit whoever comes forward!!" Lu Shaojie also became fierce. If the enemy troops rush to the position before reinforcements arrive, then everyone here will die! The position will also be lost!
At this moment, the battle has reached a fever pitch.
