After discovering the mine anomaly, the devil sappers immediately stopped demining and reported the news to the division commander Toshio Tani.

After learning of the situation, Gu Shoufu looked surprised: "Nani? The mines deployed by the Chinese cannot be detected with mine detectors? ”

The commander of the 6th Engineer Wing on the side, Harutaro Furuta, immediately bowed his head and explained: "Your Excellency, Division Commander, the mine detector is actually a metal detector. Therefore, if the Chinese army has deployed non-metallic shell mines, then mine detectors cannot detect them. ”

Gu Shoufu asked: "What do you mean, one of the mines deployed by the Chinese army is a non-metallic shell?" ”

"Non-metallic shell mines, although not as lethal as metal-shell mines after detonation, are more concealed, and so far, there is almost no way to detect them.

After the lowly inspection, the Imperial Army's mine detector did not malfunction, so this is the only possibility! ”

After pondering for a moment, Gu Shoufu said: "Gutian-kun, the Chinese army hastily withdrew early this morning, I estimate that even if they lay mines, they will not deploy too much.

You ask the Imperial Army of the Engineer Wing to probe the open area outside the trenches, and if there are no mines outside, stop the demining. ”

"Haya!"

Harutaro Furuta bowed deeply and turned to leave.

……

At eight o'clock in the morning, the humming of fighter planes suddenly came from a distance.

Gu Shoufu turned his head and glanced at it, and immediately waved the official knife in his hand forward, and ordered: "Artillery wing, open the artillery!" ”

As the operational instructions were delivered, the artillery wing directly under the 6th Division of the Japanese Army began to fire at the positions of the Tiger Battalion.

At the same time, the naval carrier-based aircraft group called by Gu Shoufu also flew over the position of the Tiger Camp and began to drop bombs and dive and strafe.

On the other side, the follow-up units of the Japanese 10th Army, a heavy artillery brigade and several other divisions that landed from Hangzhou Bay, after repairing overnight, were also rapidly advancing towards Songjiang and other places.

Tiger camp position.

As soon as the devil carrier-based aircraft group appeared in the field of vision, Yang Jing realized that the situation was wrong, and immediately ordered with a gloomy face: "Conceal!" Take cover! ”

The Huben Battalion and the straw bales of the Songjiang Security Brigade received the order, and as soon as they got into the air defense cat's ear hole, hundreds of shells and aerial bombs rained down.

"Boom!"

"Boom, boom, boom! ——”

Violent explosions came and went, incessantly, blowing up the position of the Tiger Ben Regiment to the ground, shaking the ground and causing fires in all directions.

Wu Jingshan, who was sitting in the Songjiang City Defense Headquarters, could feel the powerful firepower of the devils from afar, and couldn't help but sweat for the soldiers of the Huben Battalion and the Songjiang Security Regiment.

The defenders' position, because Yang Jing had already made sufficient preparations in advance when building fortifications.

Therefore, the artillery bombardment and air raid bombardment of the devils seemed to be terrifying, and the entire position was blown up with fire and smoke. In fact, the casualties inflicted on the defenders were not significant.

Only a few of the defenders who were closer to the point where the shells landed were wounded or killed.

The shelling and bombardment of the devils lasted for nearly half an hour, almost sending a covering fire blow to the defenders' positions.

As soon as the bombing ended, the Japanese army sent a reinforced squadron of more than 300 people to form a tentative attack force and launch the first round of attacks on the forward positions of the Huben camp.

At the same time, the rear artillery was again brought into combat readiness, and as soon as a point of fire of the defenders was exposed, they immediately aimed and struck with fire.

At the forward position of the Tiger Camp, Yang Jing also came out of the cat's ear hole for the first time, and was holding a telescope to observe the enemy situation at this time.

Seeing that the Japanese army only dispatched two or three hundred people, Yang Jing immediately said to Ma Tong on the side: "This is just a tentative attack by the devils, and its purpose is to test the previous bombing effect and lure our army's important firepower to be exposed.

Order the front-line troops, not to overexpose their firepower, and to put the enemy close before fighting.

In addition, wait for the battle to break out, the fire point of the heavy machine gun must not be exposed, and the light machine gun will immediately change the position after a shuttle! ”

"Yes!"

Ma Tong responded, and immediately took the order to leave.

After receiving the order, Chen Lin immediately turned his face sideways and ordered in a deep voice to the surrounding soldiers: "Brothers, pay attention to concealment, this devil is just a tentative force of the enemy, don't expose your firepower in advance, put the enemy close before fighting!" ”

The Tiger Battalion has more than 1,200 people, 5 companies, and 1 guard platoon.

In addition to the guard platoon, each company had more than 200 people.

After receiving the order, more than 200 soldiers of the third company deliberately lowered their heads to hide, and at the same time pulled the bolt and pushed the bullet to load.

The grenades were also taken out of the ammunition box one by one, and the back cover was unscrewed, revealing the fuse inside, which was placed in the most accessible position in front of him.

In front of the position, more than 300 devil soldiers had already entered within 500 meters, and they all changed from slowly advancing to running rapidly, rapidly approaching the position of the third company.

At this distance, it is already within the fire blockade range of light and heavy machine guns, and the devils have a lot of combat experience, and they do not gather a group of hedgehogs. Instead, they scattered in all directions, in a more dispersed line of skirmishers, bowing their heads with their spears bowed, and charging rapidly, in order to rush as quickly as possible within the range of their infantry's accurate fire.

"Warriors of the Empire, hurry up, speed up! Kill the chicken and give! ”

A devil captain hid in the crowd, constantly urging his subordinates to speed up.

Behind them, a Type 92 heavy machine gun had already let out a thunderous fury, providing fire cover for these little devils.

"Da Da Da!"

"Tubu! ——”

The scorching bullets continued to hit the bunker in front of the three positions, splashing smoke and dust.

There were also some stray bullets that whizzed over the heads of the officers of the Third Company.

Soon, the devil's attacking force approached to a distance of 200 meters, and the defenders still did not move, so they could only continue to advance.

150 meters.

120 meters.

100 meters.

80 meters.

……

Now is the time!

Yang Jing took the lead in firing, only to hear a muffled sound of 'bang', and a rifle bullet spun out of the chamber at high speed.

The next moment, the bullet hit the eyebrows of the devil captain who led the team as accurately as if it had eyes.

After the bullet pierced Captain Devil's frontal bone, it created a cavity effect in his brain, causing his skull to collapse along with the military cap on his head.

"System prompt: Congratulations to the host, killed a Japanese captain officer, and broke out 1 box of canned beef from Osaka; Merit +300, XP +300. ”

The sound of gunfire was an order, and Chen Lin, the commander of the third company, suddenly picked up a Czech light machine gun, set it up on the bunker in front of him, and fired a rapid strafing shot at the several devil soldiers who were charging.

"Da Da Da! ——”

Gunshots rang out, and several ghost soldiers fell one after another.
