Akashiba Yaezo suddenly reacted and cursed angrily: "Baga Yalu, these hateful enemies are indeed very cunning."
"No wonder the division commander wants to destroy them at all costs."
At this moment, the old devil finally figured it out.
At this time, a Japanese officer said: "Your Majesty Colonel, the bridge has been blown up. The locust army on the west bank has been violently attacked by the enemy and is in critical condition."
Akashiba Yaezo reacted suddenly, knowing that now was not the time to talk about this.
The old devil quickly ordered loudly: "Send the order immediately, and the artillery will be deployed immediately to support the troops on the other side."
"The infantry troops are immediately preparing to cross the river to provide support. The troops on the other side must stop their attack and stabilize the situation."
"Order the engineers to repair the bridge immediately to ensure that the main force can cross the river."
"Hai~!"
It has to be said that this old devil has quite a lot of combat experience and immediately gave the best solution.
But the bridge had been blown up and they couldn't repair it in a short time.
Moreover, most of their artillery units are blocked on the west bank. Now the artillery firepower that can be mobilized on the east bank is limited and cannot provide effective support.
However, on the other side, Lin Yi personally commanded the troops to launch a more violent attack.
Most of these Japanese soldiers who were left behind were Japanese artillery and heavy equipment, and their combat effectiveness was very limited.
It could not withstand the fierce offensive of the Dragon Kingdom army, and the casualties were increasing.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Akashiba Yaezo quickly shouted: "The infantry swim over and swim to the other side to support them. We must ensure their safety."
"Hai~!"
A Japanese officer nearby responded quickly and turned around to convey the order.
Following the old devil's order, hundreds of devils with good water skills immediately jumped into the river and swam towards the other side.
Lin Yi also discovered this situation and immediately ordered: "Notify Wang Chengzhu immediately and let them concentrate their artillery fire on the little Japanese crossing the river."
"The attacking troops seized advantageous positions on both sides of the river and fired with machine guns to prevent them from crossing the river."
"yes!"
Following Lin Yi's order, Wang Chengzhu immediately ordered the artillerymen to turn the muzzles and began to fire at the Japs who were about to swim over in the Zhaojiaqiao area.
"Boom~! Boom~!"
Cannonballs fell into the water one after another, exploding loudly and causing splashes of water.
The little devils in the river were killed in pieces like fried fish, causing heavy casualties for a while.
The shell explodes on land and kills mainly by fragmentation.
But it's different in water, because the density of water is 800 times that of air, so the water pressure generated by an explosion in water is also 800 times that of the air shock wave.
Such huge pressure is enough to crush a person's internal organs.
This is the principle of fish frying. Even a small firecracker can kill a piece of fish if thrown into the water.
The little Japanese were eager to get to the other side for support, so the personnel were relatively dense.
When the gun goes down, it explodes into a large area.
The little devil who was struggling to swim forward turned into a mass of floating corpses and drifted down the river as soon as the cannon was fired.
At the same time, Sun Desheng also led a group of people to occupy a high ground by the river.
He ordered people to set up a dozen MG34 general-purpose machine guns, and from a distance of several hundred meters, they aimed at the little Japanese in the river in the distance and started shooting.
For a while, intensive gunshots continued to sound, and bullets flew over like raindrops one after another. The Japanese in the river were restricted in their movements and could not hide even if they wanted to. One after another, they were hit by bullets, and soon people on the river surface A large area was dyed red with blood, and more and more corpses of Japanese soldiers were floating in the river.
Akashiba Yaezo cursed angrily: "Bagaya Deer, focus your firepower on me, aim at the enemy on the other side, fire with all your strength, and provide cover fire."
"Hai~!"
Under the command of this old Japanese, the young Japanese on the east bank also began to mobilize all firepower to support the Japanese on the other side.
However, the little devils on the west bank have been completely defeated under the fierce attack of the Dragon Kingdom army.
The little devils suffered heavy casualties and could not resist at all. They were surrounded. From three directions, large numbers of Dragon Kingdom troops rushed towards them, and the dense bullets were like raindrops.
The little devil had no danger to defend and could not withstand it at all, and suffered heavy losses.
The few hundred little devils who survived could not hold on any longer and were forced to the river one after another.
But the bridge had been blown up, and the surrounding Dragon Kingdom troops were seen rushing over like a tide.
These little devils couldn't resist, so they jumped into the river one after another and swam towards the east bank.
Someone took the lead, and the other little devils followed suit and jumped into the river one after another.
This season, just after the rainy season, the water in the river is still very deep.
If it were normal, it would not be too difficult for most little devils to swim to the other side with their own water qualities.
But they still have to face a hail of bullets. In this case, it is undoubtedly difficult to swim through alive.
Once they jumped into the river, these little devils basically lost their ability to resist.
More and more Dragon Kingdom soldiers rushed to the river and began to shoot at the little Japanese struggling in the river.
At the same time, artillery shells also fell into the river one after another, sending groups of little devils directly into hell.
Seeing this scene, Colonel Akashiba Yaezo jumped to his feet in anger and shouted loudly: "Yakayaro, these idiots!"
"Didn't they ask them to block the enemy's attack? Who asked them to go into the river? Isn't this looking for death?"
A Japanese officer next to him said: "Sir, Colonel, please calm down. We have already sent a signal to notify them. It's just that the enemy's offensive was too fierce and the locust army on the other side couldn't resist it, which led to such consequences."
Akashiba Yaezo said angrily: "Order the troops to circle along the river bank to both sides to find favorable terrain to cross the river."
"Continue to concentrate firepower and suppress the enemy's firepower on the other side."
"Hurry up~!"
"Hai~!"
At this point, the old devil has no other choice but to reduce casualties as much as possible.
At the same time, he was also thinking of ways to cross the river and bite this group of enemies to prevent them from escaping again.
After a fierce battle, all the little Japanese on the west bank were quickly wiped out, and a large number of Japanese corpses were floating on the river.
This battle can be described as a complete victory.
Lin Yi saw that he had already taken advantage, so if he continued to fight, there would be no big advantage left.
So he quickly ordered: "Give me the order, briefly clean the battlefield, and retreat immediately."
"yes!"
After the order was conveyed, the soldiers began to quickly clean the battlefield. Under the leadership of Lin Yi, they evacuated the battlefield directly, retreated all the way to the west, and broke away from the Japs.
