The light and heavy artillery that had already crossed the river and advanced for two kilometers suddenly opened fire with all its might, and the war began again!

The artillery fire was very accurate, and the first round of shelling hit directly on a mountain artillery position!

The more than 20 mountain guns of the Japanese army were beaten into parts before they had time to exert their might, and most of the hundreds of artillery pieces of the Japanese army also saw their bullshit emperor!

At the same time, the troops of three divisions were also marching according to the predetermined goal and were about to bombard the Japanese army!

Thousands of heavy artillery shells have destroyed the Japanese army's tooth-decaying equipment in turn, and the Japanese army's losses are also very serious.

The artillery fire that had just been fired turned around and opened fire on the main firepower belts of the Japanese troops, and explosions roared in some of the forward positions and main positions of the Japanese troops. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At the same time, the 184th Division and the new 10th Division were already only 100 meters away from the forward positions of the Japanese army!

Naturally, the current soldiers will not expose their firepower too early, and they all touch the Japanese positions with their waists bent!

Under the blow of heavy artillery, the Japanese army also suffered heavy losses, and the most depressing thing for the Japanese army was that the shells of their Yunnan army seemed to have a pair of eyes!

A few shells hit the bunkers where they were hiding, and the violent explosion directly blew up these bunkers!

Many Japanese soldiers hiding inside were buried alive by earth and rocks before they had time to react, and similarly, the heavy machine guns in the front line of the Japanese army were also hit by heavy fire, and even the hidden positions on the side slopes were shelled!

The shelling lasted for half an hour, and the artillery fire of our troops finally thinned out, and the main fire belt of the Japanese army was destroyed.

Just when the surviving Japanese troops had just drilled out of the anti-artillery hole and entered the position, a series of mortar sounds suddenly sounded not far away!

The Japanese soldiers, who had just been greeted by large-caliber shells, did not have time to react, and were greeted by hundreds of small-caliber anti-personnel grenades!

Caught off guard, the Japanese army suddenly suffered heavy casualties, and at this time, they threw too many grenades in more than ten meters!

"Kill"

In the darkness in the distance, there was a loud shout of killing, and the troops had already begun to charge!

The Japanese troops on the forward positions had already lost more than half of them by a heavy artillery bombardment, and in such a situation, they were suddenly attacked by our troops, and the casualties were even heavier!

Soon, the Japanese began to retreat! Everyone struck all the way and soon knocked down the forward position!

Just when they still wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue, the Japanese troops on the hillside also opened fire fiercely, and the guns rang out in a ball, and the Japanese heavy machine guns opened fierce fire to suppress them!

"Notify the mortars and blow up all the heavy machine guns exposed by the firing point"!

"Set up heavy machine guns and greet them"! Li Zuo ordered.

"Yes"!

Our soldiers were also hurriedly erecting heavy machine guns, and similarly, more than a dozen Japanese 92 heavy machine guns and more than 20 crooked light machine guns captured from the position were used by them in turn and fired fiercely at the Japanese troops above to suppress them!

Also when the offensive of the 184th Division was launched, the battle of the new 10th Division had also begun, and there was a gentle slope on the side, and there was a Japanese brigade stationed on the forward position!

However, the Japanese army was conservatively estimated to have lost about 30% of its strength in the round of shelling just now! Now the new 10th Division is using mortars to bombard Japanese positions, and the same soldiers have already charged.

"Inform the artillerymen to give me a boom! We must not fall behind the Dian army, inform the troops, before 12 o'clock tonight, we must defeat the Japanese army in front of me, if anyone dares to retreat passively, I will personally cut off his head"! Wang Yaowu ordered.

"Yes"!

The offensive of the 74th Army was also launched one after another, and the troops of the two divisions were put into preparation to defeat the Sazhi detachment and the Japanese brigade that had lost more than half of it!

The general headquarters, Chen Cheng, Xue Yue, Luo Zhuoying, as the supreme commanders of this battle, the three of them are also deploying today's battle with brows!

"Now that the 32nd Group Army has captured some areas of Nanchang and is advancing with all its might, the First Group Army and the 74th Army are only five kilometers away from the Naonexun Railway, if the progress goes well, at the latest tomorrow dawn, the First Army will arrive in the southern suburbs of Nanchang to launch an attack and cooperate with the attack of the 32nd Group Army"! Luo Zhuoying said.

"What about the rest of the ministries"? Chen Cheng asked.

"The rest of the divisions are still in fierce fighting, and the casualties of the troops have increased, but the advance is very slow"! Xue Yue frowned.

"If the First Army and the 74th Army can advance, the two armies may not be able to defeat Nanchang! As long as they take half of Nanchang, the Japanese defense line will inevitably collapse, and then they will be able to cooperate with the rest of the troops to attack"! Chen Cheng said.

"Then you should check this out"! Xue Yue frowned and handed over a telegram!

Chen Cheng took it and frowned, "Has the replenished ammunition been delivered?"

"The ammunition of the First Army was attacked by the Japanese air raid on the road, and the loss was more than eighty percent, and his own ammunition reserves, I estimate that it will be almost the same after this battle, if the ammunition does not keep up, they can only fight bayonets"! Xue Yue said.

"If we can transport the ammunition now, it is still possible, if we can't transport it, I am afraid that it will be difficult to say that the First Army will be counterattacked by the Japanese army at that time." Luo Zhuoying said.

"Almost all the cars, including mules, horses and people, can be used, and our own ammunition reserves are about to run out, and the ammunition of all departments is running out one after another, and we are about to return to the era of cold weapons." Xue Yue said.

"So be it! Concentrate all the limited ammunition in the hands of the troops who are attacking smoothly, inform the First Army to resist it, urgently requisition some soldiers to send the ammunition to them, leave our guard battalion with a guard platoon, and all the rest go to transport ammunition"! Chen Cheng said.

"But the purpose of the guard is to protect the safety of the two commanders, and the Japanese army has used interspersed tactics many times, if something happens to you, the whole army will collapse!" Luo Zhuoying said.

"Don't worry! They can't take the heads of the two of us, so notify them to execute it quickly! Be sure to get the ammunition there before dawn tomorrow!"

"Yes"!

Not long after Luo Zhuoying walked out, a communication soldier ran in with a changed face and said, "Report, there is an urgent call ahead!"

Xue Yue took the telegram and looked at it, his face suddenly changed greatly: "Chen Anbao, commander of the 29th Army of the 32nd Group Army, was seriously injured and died, Liu Yuqing, commander of the 26th Division, was seriously injured, and Xie Beiting, commander of the 155th Regiment, was killed!" The 32nd Group Army suffered more than eighty percent casualties, and the Japanese army launched a counterattack to encircle and annihilate it, and it is very likely that one of our group armies will be completely annihilated by the Japanese army"!

"What? How did it happen in just one day? Chen Cheng couldn't believe it.

"The Japanese army used poison gas bombs, our soldiers did not have gas masks, the Japanese army charged fiercely, and the artillery bombarded in turns." Xue Yue said with red eyes.

"The chief of staff of the 29th Army asked the troops to retreat, otherwise it is very likely to be completely annihilated by the Japanese army"! Xue Yue continued.

"You tell them that they must hold on, as long as they hold on until tomorrow, the First Group and the 74th Army will be in the city! If you dare to retreat without permission, you will be killed!" Chen Cheng patted the table and said.

"Have you thought clearly, this is a group army, if one of our group armies is annihilated by the Japanese army, even if we take Nanchang, we will be the losers, can we still hold it after we fight?" Xue Yue said.

"This is a strict order of the chairman, who dares to disobey"? Chen Cheng said.

Xue Yue frowned and said: "The generals are not subject to the orders of the foreign monarchs, we must have a clear understanding of the battle situation when we fight, and we must also be responsible for the lives of the soldiers, and we must not sacrifice them in vain for our own anger"!

Chen Cheng was silent for a long time and finally spoke: "I also know, but we have no choice, now that the war situation has reached this situation, we can only gamble, if it really doesn't work, I will personally call the chairman of the committee to ask for the withdrawal of troops."

When Xue Yue saw Chen Cheng say this, he didn't insist on speaking: "That's okay, if you really can't hold on, I'll carry it with you!"

"Give them electricity, and make them persevere! It's really not good, we will send him a telegram to retreat, and in the same way, send a telegram to the First Army and the 74th Army, let them speed up the speed, and the success or failure is in their hands"! Chen Cheng said.

"Good".

"What about our air force, let them persist no matter how hard and tired they are, reload ammunition and prepare to support the 32nd Army"!

"Yes"!

"Order Townenberg to support the 32 Army at all costs"!

"Yes"!

Similarly, the headquarters of the First Group Army, Lu Han, Zhao Jinwen, and Gao Yinhuai were also discussing countermeasures, and at this time, a signal soldier also ran in and said: "Sir, the headquarters telegraphs"!

Lu Han took it and said, "The headquarters is urging us to speed up again"!

"How to speed up? How many battles have been fought in a day, and our soldiers are not machines, and they are tired to death if they are not killed by the Japanese army in such a fight"! Gao Yinhuai complained.

"What do they say about ammunition"? Zhao Jinwen said.

"Ammunition they are rushing to reinforce, saying that it will arrive at noon tomorrow at the latest"! Luján said.

"Inform the logistics troops to send all the ammunition sent over today, and at the same time inform the three division commanders to speed up the speed at all costs"! Luján ordered.

"Yes!"

On the front line, the battle was still fighting, and after a round of strong attack, the second line position of the Japanese army was also loosened, and the soldiers once again launched a charge!

The resistance of the Japanese army was also fierce, bullets whistled throughout the battlefield, grenades, anti-personnel grenades continued to explode, one wave of charges was knocked down, and the second wave continued to charge!

"Xiaohai, the fight is so fierce, should we do something"? Zhao Jianying said.

"Of course, but we can't expose it in advance, otherwise how can we fish in troubled waters"? Lu Hai said and took down the sniper rifle on his back and said, the machine gun is not allowed to fire, and the rest of the people do not need to fire so as not to be exposed, you will find me the Japanese machine gunner in the firing range!

"The firing range, it's about 700 meters here, and the machine gun is hard to fight, can you shoot 700 meters with this gun?" Zhao Jianying said incredulously.

"Don't worry, just like the German heavy artillery, it is all long-range and high-precision"! Lu Hai said with a smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Hai took a deep breath and picked up the sniper rifle, and a Japanese heavy machine gunner who was firing appeared in his scope.
