The raid came too suddenly.

It took less than a minute from the opening of the flying thunder cannon to the start of the assault of the guard battalion.

In the rear of the Japanese puppet army station, Takahashi Osa got up from the marching bed, put on his military uniform, and just rushed out of the tent, the guard company's loud charge horn had already sounded.

A subordinate rushed over in a panic: "Report to the chief, the position was attacked by the garrison regiment, they used a large number of flying thunder artillery, and the front-line position was bombed into the sky, and nothing could be seen, and they could not be contacted by phone." ”

Another subordinate rushed over in a hurry, panting and reporting: "Sir, the Eighth Route Army has begun to attack our first line of defense, with a strength of about one battalion. ”

"The second line of defense was also attacked, and they attacked the second line of defense with mortars across the first line, not only ordinary mortars, but also heavy mortars."

Takahashi Osa looked at the battlefield with the binoculars handed over by the guards, his face became more and more gloomy, and it took a long time before he spoke: "Eight Grid Tooth Road, this is a premeditated counterattack of the Eighth Route Army, and our first line of defense is over!" ”

"Order the mountain artillery troops to counterattack immediately, find the artillery positions of the Eighth Route Army, and kill them."

"Chief of Staff, order the Second Brigade to assemble immediately, reinforce the second line of defense, and resolutely block the counteroffensive forces of the Eighth Route Army."

The offense went unusually well.

After the baptism of forty explosives bags, there were very few devils left alive on the battlefield.

Dozens of huge craters were distributed on both sides of the position, and the devils fell nearby in various postures.

Many devils appear to be intact on the surface, as if they are asleep, but in fact, their internal organs have been shattered by the shock wave.

There are also little devils who are still alive.

But the impact of the shock wave on them was too great, and the whole person was in dizziness, his ears were ringing, and he didn't know what was going on outside, and he didn't know that the Eighth Route Army was approaching them.

When they come back to their senses and take up arms to fight back.

"Da Da Da ......"

A shuttle of machine-gun bullets swept right at them, and there was no way to dodge.

"Sneer......"

A few bullets sounded into the flesh, and the stinging sensation quickly spread from the chest to the whole body, and then I saw several blood holes appear in the chest, and blood gushed out like a fountain.

The devil's eyes widened rapidly, and he fell to the ground with despair and incredulity.

Nearly twenty machine gunners mingled in the middle of the attacking troops, striking and firing at the same time, and the whizzing bullets quickly harvested the few devils in the position.

On the second line of defense of the Japanese army, the deputy captain who stayed here watched the first-line positions being submerged in artillery fire, and the attacking troops of the Eighth Route Army were getting closer and closer, so he could only do it in a hurry.

A group of nine mortar shells rained down on the side, blowing up a large amount of dirt and logs, and many soldiers were also bleeding in the explosion.

The deputy captain was very glad that the Eighth Route Army only had three heavy mortars, and the others were all medium-sized mortars that relied on artillery shells to kill people, and could not destroy the trenches.

As long as you hide in the trenches, your luck is not too bad, and the shells do not hit you directly, there is no problem with safety.

Of course, when it comes to heavy mortars, the result will be another matter.

Even if you are hiding in a trench, the powerful shock wave from the explosion can shock people to death.

But in any case, hiding in the trenches will definitely minimize the casualties of your subordinates.

If the troops had fought their way out of the trenches and reinforced the first line of defense, exposed to artillery fire, the casualties would have skyrocketed.

Perhaps before they could reach the first line of defense, the few troops under their command suffered heavy casualties in the shelling and lost their combat effectiveness.

Not only will it not be able to save the first line of defense, but the second line of defense will also be unable to defend it because of insufficient troops, and the gains outweigh the losses.

In order to avoid this from happening, he could only hold his position and watch as the Eighth Route Army entered the first line of defense and occupied it.

"Woo woo woo ......"

Shells with a screeching sound suddenly swept over their heads.

Immediately after, a series of explosions came from the position of the Eighth Route Army, "booming ......", the flames flickered, and black smoke rose into the air, which could be seen clearly from afar.

"It's our artillerymen, they fired!" The deputy team was so excited that he almost jumped up and shouted loudly to convey the good news to his subordinates.

The roaring explosions in my ears stopped all of a sudden, and it must have been the work of the mountain artillery units in the rear.

The deputy captain seized the time and ordered: "Everyone rush to repair the fortifications and prepare for battle." ”

"The Eighth Route Army will definitely continue to attack us, otherwise it will not fire at us, and everyone must hold their positions."

"The mountain artillery units have all opened fire, and the wing commander must have sent us reinforcements."

After the vice-captain finished speaking, he poked his head out of the trench and observed the battle situation with the help of a telescope.

The gunfire in front was getting weaker and weaker, and it was certain that the defensive garrison was about to be wiped out.

The nerves that had just been relaxed tightened again, and the brows were twisted into Sichuan characters again.

The battle ended too quickly!

Although the combat effectiveness of the garrison was not comparable to that of the field troops, four or five hundred people were stationed there.

There is a heavy machine gun for a heavy machine gun, and there is a mortar for a mortar.

If such a unit is placed on other battlefields, even in the face of a siege by a main regiment, it can hold out for at least an hour.

But now, in the face of the counterattack of a battalion of the garrison regiment, it only lasted five minutes and was defeated.

The deputy captain was just transferred here with the main force, and it was the first time he fought with the legendary garrison regiment, and for the first time he really felt the strong combat effectiveness of the garrison regiment.

They were so powerful, and they were well armed, even better than the Imperial Army in some respects.

In the face of such a strong army, the deputy captain's confidence in holding the second line of defense was suddenly gone.

While praying that reinforcements would come quickly, he also prayed that the Eighth Route Army, which occupied the first line of defense, would attack later.

"Quick, hurry up and set up artillery positions!"

The platoon commander of the flying thunder artillery platoon personally carried a gun and rushed into the first line of defense of the craters all over the place, and began to dig the pit as soon as he put the barrel made of gasoline barrels on the ground, and did not forget to urge his subordinates to speed up.

The four soldiers served a flying thunder cannon, digging a pit for digging a pit, and burying a cannon for burying a cannon, in an orderly manner.

In less than five minutes, twenty flying thunder guns were re-erected in the new position.

Most of the cannon was buried in the earth, with the muzzle facing upwards and pointing diagonally to the sky, leaving only a small hole through the fuse.

"Fully loaded with a range of three hundred meters of propellant, now start preparations, shoot in half a minute." The platoon commander continued to order.

Not far away, the guard battalion also began to shrink its forces and replenish ammunition.

The busiest is the machine gunner, who expertly presses bullets into the magazine.

When attacking, these light machine guns are used as submachine guns, and they are holding fire while assaulting, suppressing the remnants of the enemy on the battlefield.

A magazine of twenty rounds can be used up in a few seconds by firing with all your might.

In the battle just now, nearly twenty machine guns attacked with the team, and each light machine gun emptied at least five magazines.

The second attack began immediately, and the machine guns were still the main force of the attack, and in order to ensure that the offensive fire was not interrupted, they had to fill all the empty magazines.
