Tetsuya Koyama put down his telescope and said with a cold expression, without any emotion, "The grenades will focus on the right wing for one round, and then the reserves will follow. Be sure to suppress the enemy on the right wing first."
Not long after the order was passed, there was an explosion of "Boom, boom, boom." on the front line.
A round of more than a hundred artillery shells went down, instantly smashing the right wing of the front into a vacuum.
When the gunpowder smoke cleared, limbs were broken, and wailings filled the field. Then with a roar of "Seth, give it to me~", more than a hundred reserve troops quickly rushed to the position to perform last-ditch attacks on the Eighth Route Army soldiers who had lost their health.
The 3rd Battalion and 8th Company were unprepared for the sudden artillery attack, which dealt an almost devastating blow to the soldiers who were still fighting hand-to-hand with the Japs. Even those who were not killed on the spot were hit by the Japs who caught up from behind.
After this battle, there were less than thirty soldiers alive in the Eighth Company, and all of them were injured. It can be said that they were disabled!
But, so what if I'm disabled? Even though their limbs were missing, the remaining soldiers were entangled with the Japanese, preventing them from rushing past them.
They cannot retreat and will not retreat until they die!
Even if they fight to the last moment, they will fight with all their might.
Hold back the Japs and prevent them from rushing out of position!
Seeing the heavy casualties of the Third Company, Gao Bo instantly became red-eyed and shouted, "You are so tight, Tetsuya Koyama! You are still not a human being, you can even blow up your own damn people!"
After shouting, he ignored the enemies around him and hurriedly rushed towards the precarious front line.
But after taking a few steps, he was pestered by the Japanese again.
He is the battalion commander and is the focus of the Japs' care. Even if there are guards guarding him, there are always countless Japs chasing after him, like moths to a flame, trying to kill him.
"Damn~" After swearing, he had to deal with the enemy in front of him, but he had no choice. There were too many Japanese and they were stalking him. It was very difficult to deal with him. For a while, he couldn't get away at all. He had no choice but to let him go. The Seventh Company went to support, and at the same time ordered the reserve team to fill the gap.
The reserve force of the new regiment does not have high combat effectiveness. They are usually non-combat troops such as communication soldiers and cooking soldiers. He will not send these soldiers to the front line if he is forced to do so. But there is no way now. Once the hole of the Eighth Company is breached, , the little devils will be able to flank them immediately.
Tetsuya Koyama's round of shelling could be said to have hit seven inches directly. Although it killed many of his own people, it turned the tide of the battle.
The situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly. Koyama Tetsuya had been prepared for it, and the reserve team rushed in early. This made the third battalion very passive now. Even with the support of the seventh company and the reserve team to fill the gap, it was so late.
Tetsuya Koyama held up the binoculars. After the right-wing front gradually gained the upper hand, a cruel smile finally appeared on his cold face.
Putting down the telescope, he shook his head, "The new regiment is indeed the elite of the Eighth Route Army. If it had been replaced by J, the right wing would have been broken long ago. But now the right wing is in danger. We only need to work harder to defeat the Eighth Route Army." If we push them back, as long as the right wing is opened, our brave soldiers of the Yellow Army will be able to defeat them and complete the double-team."
"Colonel's command is exquisite. The bombardment just now was the hand of a god. We can't help but feel inferior!" A staff officer beside him started to flatter him.
There are flatterers and naysayers. This kind of thing is the same everywhere, even if it is as cruel as the Japanese. For example, the staff officer Inada who has guessed the tactics of the new regiment has begun to naysay, "Colonel, what did you just say?" At least fifty imperial soldiers will be killed in one round of shelling. I hope you, Colonel, will use this tactic sparingly in the future, otherwise"
Before Inada could finish his words, he was interrupted by the flattering staff officer, "Inada's army is serious. The shelling just now will definitely not cause so many casualties. The damage range of the 32mm caliber shells is very small. You saw those imperial soldiers who fell." They were all stunned, they were not killed, they will wake up soon and return to the fight!"
Koyama Tetsuya was very satisfied when he heard someone looking for reasons to defend others.
So he nodded slightly and expressed his approval to the flattering staff officer.
Although it was a cruel self-inflicted tactic, it achieved the tactical purpose. As a staff officer, Inada couldn't say any more, but as a staff officer, he felt that the battle was not over yet so he could not take it lightly.
He raised his telescope and scanned the situation on the battlefield. He felt that the battle situation was now stable, and there was no need for Koyama Tetsuya to come to the front line in person. So he said, "Colonel Koyama, the war situation is now stable. I don't think you need to go to the front line in person. Okay, just leave it to us."
As soon as these words came out, Xiaoshan immediately frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything, but he was considering whether to leave because the front line was dangerous, and the new regiment had a record of beheading a colonel, which made him a little worried.
Perhaps sensing Koyama Tetsuya's frown, the flattering staff member immediately said, "Inada-kun, Koyama Osamu is a great warrior. With him commanding at the front line, our army will be able to defeat the invading enemy in one fell swoop!"
The flattering staff officer looked passionate and impassioned. He described Xiaoshan as a contemporary god of war who could win every battle. At the end of the sentence, he glanced at the rice field coldly and said, "Oh~ Mr. Rice Field, I understand. You want the colonel to leave." Then take over the command, so that all the military achievements this time will be attributed to your name, right?"
"I didn't! I was worried about the safety of Colonel, and I definitely never thought about the issue of military merit." Inada defended loudly, not wanting this shit basin of military merit to be pinned on his head.
Koyama Tetsu also waved his hand, "Needless to say, Mr. Da Tian, you are right to think about my safety, but as the supreme commander of the regiment, I must stand here. You have already guessed the intentions of the Eighth Route Army, so we cannot afford to make any mistakes. !”
"Ozo." Inada wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Koyama Tetsuya again waving his hand.
.
Shunliu was a recruit recruited by the new regiment when it was being renovated. He was the son of the Orion family. He was 16 years old. He had good marksmanship. He was thin and dry and looked very inconspicuous. He doesn't like to talk much and is very introverted, but he absolutely follows orders from his superiors unconditionally.
After receiving Shi Zhijian's order, he immediately left the battlefield with the second platoon leader and disappeared under the moonlight.
In order to avoid being discovered, the two of them deliberately left the road slightly.
Halfway through, Shunliu looked at the road ahead, then stopped and said calmly to the second platoon leader, "Second platoon leader, don't follow me."
"Why?" The second platoon leader stared at Shunliu and asked in confusion.
Shunliu blinked, "You are too incompetent, you will be easily exposed if you follow me."
The second platoon leader was choked up and speechless, but he still chose to believe his comrades, "Okay, then be careful." (End of Chapter)
