Now Zeng Zesheng can no longer push his troops to the rear to avoid the Japanese artillery fire, because once the Japanese army drives straight in, they can only retreat to the mountains to guerrilla attacks without offensive cover.

The soldiers of the battalions and companies under the mountain have been at the forefront, and even the reserves have been pulled to defend in various places where the strength is weak, but the troops are also weak and cannot be effectively defended.

At this moment, Wan Baobang's phone called: "No matter what method you use, you must hold your position to the death, I will let Yang Hongyuan support you, and our artillery will also provide you with fire support"!

"Don't worry, as long as I Zeng Ze lives and doesn't die, I won't lose an inch of my position!" Zeng Zesheng said resolutely.

On the front line, the forward troops of the Japanese army were only 100 meters away from Zeng Zesheng's regiment, and the follow-up tank cavalry also followed closely, at this time the Japanese artillery fire became more intense, and everyone could not retreat to the rear to dodge, so they had to take refuge behind the trenches dug out, and the casualties increased significantly.

Just when the Japanese army entered the 50-meter range, the defenders of all lines, under the leadership of the battalion commander, opened heavy fire and fired at the Japanese troops at the front of the position.

After entering the firing range of 50 meters, the Japanese artillery fire was obviously much thinner, but at this time the Japanese army had already begun to charge at full speed.

"Da-da-da...

"Boom"!

"Boom"!

The noisy and loud sound of gunfire rang out throughout the front of the position, and the Japanese troops charging in front fell one after another, and at this moment, seven or eight Japanese tanks also began to bombard the machine gun fire or the solid line of fire at the front.

"The machine gun quickly changes the position of Lao Tzu, you go and tell the anti-aircraft artillery to suppress the tank firepower for me"! Zhao Wu said loudly to a communication soldier.

"Aim at the infantry and cavalry behind the tank and fight, and wait for the Japanese brigade cavalry to come up and hit me hard"! Zhao Wu ordered one after another.

His position was at the forefront of the entire defensive line, and he was the first to bear the brunt of the attack, and his battalion had now lost more than 100 of them, and even the heavy machine gun positions had been destroyed by Japanese tanks.

In addition to the need for concealed firepower, the remaining infantry all fired fiercely at the soldiers around the Japanese tank, and the whistling bullets splashed the hard shell of the tank, and many of the Japanese soldiers around were killed or hit by ricochet, and the undead were also compressed into the back of the tank.

At this moment, the two anti-aircraft guns on the position were also corrected, and began to aim at the Japanese tanks and fired fiercely.

The slender and sharp anti-aircraft shells burst out of the breech and fired at the opposite tank, but in a hurry, the two shells did not hit and exploded around the tank.

At this time, the forward troops of the Japanese army were only more than ten meters away from them, and most of the Japanese cavalry wielding sabers rushed up on both sides.

"Heavy machine guns! Fire! Zhao Wu shouted.

At this moment, several Hatch Chase and two Japanese 92 heavy machine guns, which had been concealed on both sides, all opened heavy fire at this time. Coupled with a large number of crooked handles and the Czech type, a dense rain of bullets swarmed towards several Japanese troops rushing up.

The man turned on his back is the best description of the current situation, many Japanese soldiers were torn apart by heavy machine gun bullets, and even their horses were beaten and fell to the ground with bullet holes.

"What the are you grinding about? Without firing the guns, the Japanese tanks rushed over"! Zhao Wu scolded.

"We don't have shells anymore"! The soldier who operated the anti-aircraft gun said helplessly.

"What? You bunch of losers, let you save and use it, and then you put two farts and turn off the fire"? Zhao Wu scolded.

In fact, Zhao Wu also knew that after the Battle of Xuzhou, in addition to his own capture, the replenishment of the 60th Army suddenly became very difficult, and half of their house-finding artillery was also removed, the heavy artillery battalion became a heavy artillery company, and the field artillery battalion also became a field artillery company, and the shells were not as abundant as before, and it was understandable to finish the shells, but now the Japanese tanks were very close to them, and at this time, their tank natural enemies, the battle defense guns, were without shells!

"One row, you guys prepare grenades, and the rest take cover!" Zhao Wu said loudly.

The platoon, which had already suffered a third of the casualties, had only more than 20 people at this time, and after hearing the news, these soldiers bundled up the grenades without the slightest hesitation.

"Fire cover"! Zhao Wu shouted loudly.

Before the words fell, everyone was in one place, and the most intense fire began to shoot at the Japanese soldiers, and some soldiers pulled grenades and threw them into the crowd of Japanese soldiers.

In the violent explosion, the firepower of the Japanese army was also suppressed, and at this moment, the platoon commander who took the lead shouted: "Up"!

More than 20 soldiers suddenly jumped out of the trench and rushed towards the Japanese troops at the bottom of the mountain, and at this moment, the coaxial machine guns on the Japanese tanks opened fire fiercely, and the dense rain of bullets shot several soldiers in front of them, along with the platoon commander, on the spot.

However, they were still more than ten meters away from the Japanese tank, and at this moment, the Japanese troops behind the tank shot at them one after another, and one after another fell in the dense rain of bullets, but the ones who were alive did not retreat and rushed forward desperately.

When they were about to rush in front of the Japanese tanks, the Japanese coaxial machine guns suddenly opened fire violently, and under the dense rain of bullets, all the soldiers who rushed out of the trenches were killed on the spot.

Just when the Japanese tank recklessly crushed the corpse of the soldier on the ground, a loud noise suddenly came from under the tank, and the Japanese tank was directly overturned to the ground by the violent explosion, and the fire was blazing.

The infantry behind the tank was either killed or exposed to the fire of the Dian army in the front position, and the Japanese were either killed or suppressed under heavy fire.

However, the Japanese army rushed up with seven or eight tanks, and the infantry and cavalry were even more numerous.

Moreover, the Japanese tanks had broken through their forward positions, and the soldiers everywhere had even started a white-knuckle battle with the Japanese army, Zhao Wu frowned and shouted: "Withdraw to the second line"!

immediately led everyone to fight and retreat towards the second-line position, and since the Japanese army had defeated the first line, they naturally pursued it and began to pursue the retreating battalion, preparing to tear apart the entire defense line.

At this moment, Wan Baobang ordered: "Order, heavy artillery company, mountain artillery company, 60th Army artillery regiment, concentrate firepower to bomb me"!

As soon as the words fell, all the artillery opened fire together, and one shell after another smashed towards the middle of the Japanese army, and at the same time, Zeng Zesheng's regiment also ordered: "All the mortars that can be concentrated will fire at me and cut off the Japanese army"!

For a time, the explosion was deafening, and all the artillery fire that the 60th Army could use was used at this time, and the fierce artillery fire cut off the Japanese attacking troops.

At the same time, Yang Hongyuan, who was stationed on the right flank, had already made it clear that the attack on his position was only a feint, and the real purpose of the Japanese army was to concentrate their forces to break through one place, so he ordered: "The first battalion, the third battalion, the reinforcement of the 1085th regiment, the second battalion, the fourth battalion." Hold your ground! In addition, send out our mortar shells to reinforce them"!

Zeng Zesheng on the top of the mountain commanded his troops to retreat all the way to the top of the mountain, until they withdrew to the last line of defense, that is, when they were only 50 meters away from his regimental headquarters, Zeng Zesheng personally walked out with a light machine gun.

"Commander, why are you here, it's too dangerous here"! Li Zuo said urgently.

"Brothers, reinforcements are already on the way, we must hold the line, and when the reinforcements come, we will retake the position in one go"!

"Call me!" As he spoke, Zeng Zesheng personally held a machine gun and shot at the Japanese military point below.

And with the complexity of the terrain, the Japanese tanks were finally unable to climb, so they had to use their main guns to search for the positions of our machine gunners and bombard.

The Japanese infantry had to pay the price of blood every time they rushed forward, and the condescending machine-gun fire killed and wounded the Japanese infantry, and they rolled down the hill one after another.

"Blow up these sons of bitches with a grenade"! Zhao Wu shouted.

Everyone threw the grenades down, and the sound of violent explosions echoed throughout the hillside, and the Japanese soldiers were blown down one by one.

At this time, the Japanese army's reinforcements were cut off and suppressed by our army's fierce artillery fire, coupled with the layers of Zeng Zesheng's regiment, the Japanese army's fierce offensive was finally suppressed, and the two sides had a fierce exchange of fire.

"Have you lost your position"? Zeng Zesheng said urgently.

"No, the second battalion commander is blocking the attack, but the casualties are very large"! The communications soldier said loudly.

"Follow me in a row"! Zeng Zesheng shouted.

At this time, the position of the second battalion was indeed broken by the Japanese army, hundreds of Japanese soldiers were engaged in fierce exchanges of fire with the second battalion, and some had even fought bayonets, Zeng Zesheng said loudly when he came to the position of the second battalion: "Beat me hard, beat this group of devils!" ”

"Kill"!

The shouting of killing was deafening, the guns roared, and the troops on both sides were strangled together at this time, and at this moment, in the mountains and forests on the right flank, the rescuers of the two battalions sent by Yang Hongyuan had already reached the right side of the Japanese follow-up troops.

"A battalion commander, one will cover each other, and try to distract the attention of this group of devils"! The second battalion commander said.

The commander of the first battalion nodded and ordered: "Did you bring all the Japanese hand guns captured last time"?

"Brought"! A company commander said.

"Give me a good greeting with a hand cannon, these little devils"! (To be continued.) )
