"Rustle...... Rustle......"

The sound of wild grass shaking sounded from time to time in the grass more than a foot deep, and in the smoke-filled wasteland, a group of Japanese soldiers dressed in brown "89" military uniforms bent over with 38 rifles and slowly advanced towards the front under the command of the officers, and the officers told them that their friendly troops were in a bloody battle with the Chinese army.

Because the people of the Yamato nationality are generally relatively short, the lower height limit for conscription is only one meter five, according to this standard, if they take the train in China if their faces are tender, they can barely buy half a ticket, so when this group of Japanese soldiers bent over to press the bottom of the height, one by one like a movable yellow mound in the field.

There was a constant whistling of shells flying overhead, dense explosions from front and behind, and craters of various sizes could be seen everywhere in the wilderness. Marching in the wasteland were a rapid-fire artillery squadron of the 71st Division Mountain Artillery 71st Wing and an infantry brigade. In the middle of the line, more than 20 soldiers pushing two prototype 57mm rapid-fire guns struggled to push the nearly 1.5-ton rapid-fire guns out of the crater, and they were very careful in their movements, because these were the only two guns they had left with anti-tank capabilities.

"Pass the order, all of them are not allowed to make a sound, and stay hidden!" Sato, who was holding a command knife in his hand, turned his head and ordered the herald behind him.

As the second captain of the 140th Wing of the 71st Division, but now he is sent to the West Gate to support the 57th Division, Sato Jiu is very awkward in his heart, you must know that the south gate where the 71st Division is stationed has also been under great pressure in the past two days. At the beginning, when the 71st Division understood that it was the troops of the Second National Militia Division that launched an attack on them, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, and the National Militia Division was at best equivalent to the security forces in China, and the combat effectiveness of this kind of unit was generally not high.

In fact, the 71st Division's guess was correct, compared with the old 347th Division and the 350th Division led by Sun Liren, the National Militia Reserve Force was indeed inferior to those units with regular numbers in terms of equipment and soldiers, and there were no armored units. However, it is precisely for this reason that Huang Jian, the current commander of the Second Division of the National People's Police, is extremely cautious, and for this reason he even adopts the method of using strength to break through ingenuity.

After the battle began, the artillery preparation time of the 350th Division and the 347th Division attacking the West Gate and the North Gate was one hour, and as soon as the time came, the armored assault group launched an attack, but the shelling time of the Second Division of the National People's Guard reached a frenzied two hours, and when the two-hour shelling time passed, most of the positions that the 71st Division had painstakingly built became ruins, and the soldiers who hid in the fortifications also suffered heavy casualties.

By the end of the two-hour bombardment, the originally dense fortifications had long since lost their original appearance, but when the soldiers of the 2nd National Militia Division charged, the Japanese resistance became particularly stubborn. After two days of fierce fighting, the three infantry wings of the 71st Division also lost most of them, and only less than 4,000 people were still struggling to resist, but at this time, the division commander issued an order for Sato Hisashi to take the most complete infantry brigade and two rapid-fire guns to support the 57th Division, which also made Sato Jiu feel very puzzled, but the military order was like a mountain, and after receiving the order, he immediately rushed towards the west gate with all the soldiers of the second brigade and two rapid-fire guns.

Since the road from the south gate to the west gate was occupied by the Chinese army, Sato Hisashi could only lead more than 800 soldiers and more than a dozen artillery pieces to push a 1.5-ton artillery into the field with difficulty.

"I hope the 57th Division can hold out longer!"

Sato Hisashi was secretly praying in his heart that if Ximen was lost, their team would become a turtle in the urn, and they would be in a dilemma. Sato prayed and urged the soldiers to speed up, but the wilderness was full of craters and grass, and the speed of movement was very slow due to the manual pushing and pulling of the artillery.

Due to their concentration on the road, Sato did not notice that there was an unusually small Elonka O-58 "Grasshopper" reconnaissance plane circling over their heads less than 800 meters above their heads, before passing through the sky on their side, the fuselage tilted slightly sideways, as if to confirm something, and then flew away.

The Elonka O-58 "Grasshopper" observation aircraft is a very good artillery proofreading observation aircraft, only 379 kilograms, it can hover in the air for long periods of time at a speed of less than 100 kilometers. This is also destined to be almost a natural close-range observation aircraft, because it can carefully observe the situation on the ground at an almost stationary speed, and now Sato Kushaosa and his party have been discovered by this reconnaissance aircraft.

Three or four minutes later, when Sato Jiu Shaozo came to the junction of the West Gate and the South Gate, he found that a large number of Chinese soldiers were flocking to the West Gate. ”

Just when Sato Hisashi was worried, there was a sudden terrible whistling sound in the sky, this sound became more and more sharp, and the whistling sound of cannonballs tearing the sky pierced his ears and almost made the earth tremble, Sato Hisashi's face also turned pale in an instant, and he immediately realized that these cannonballs were coming at him, and his group was discovered.

"Shelling...... Lie down...... Lie down! ”

The heart-rending screams of Sato Hisashi resounded in the wilderness, and the loud explosions and the orders of the commander caused the soldiers to pounce on the ground one by one in a dog-eating posture.

"Boom ......"

At the same time that everyone was lying down, the cannonballs in the sky also fell to the ground, and Sato, who had already put his body only close to the ground, felt that the ground under his feet began to tremble violently, and the earth was suddenly swallowed up by a thick gunpowder smoke in the shaking of the mountains, and streams of black mud were also raised and flew into the air, and the originally clear sky suddenly became dark.

"Whoa......

The mud and shrapnel that had been pierced into the sky by the shock wave spilled down from the sky and hit Sato's helmet with a thudding sound. More and more sets of shells fell, and the dense artillery fire almost tore the earth apart, and Satohisa lying on the ground was covered with a thick layer of dust, and there were stumps and broken arms everywhere, and the soldiers who couldn't dodge were hit by the flying shrapnel and flew like a torn rag doll, and fragments could be seen floating with the shock wave of the cannonballs in mid-air.

But the shelling came and went as fast as it came, and in less than three minutes the shelling began to stop without warning.

However, Sato and his soldiers soon discovered that the cessation of the shelling was not the end, but the beginning of a nightmare. Before Sato could get up from the ground, there was a roar of metal in the distance, and tanks painted gray began to appear in front of him.

"The chariot of the Chinese people!" A wailing roar rang out. Looking at the Huaxia chariot that appeared not far away, all the Japanese soldiers were stunned, in this empty wilderness, a group of infantry without air force cover, complete fortifications and fire points faced with the sudden tank, this was simply a massacre.

"Your Excellency Shaozuo, the chariot is coming, what should we do?" A military cao struggled to climb to Sato's side and asked loudly, and Sato could see the despair in the soldier's eyes.

Sato didn't speak, but struggled to his feet and jumped into a nearby bomb crater that had just exploded. He didn't have time to shake off the black soil all over his body, so he hurriedly grabbed the telescope on his chest and looked into the distance, just a light glance at Sato Jiu felt a chill surging from his heart, the low and trembling roar of the gasoline engines of the chariots in front of him came through the diffuse gunsmoke, the boxy outline of the chariots in the gunpowder smoke was clearly visible, and from the telescope, you could even see the leading tanks crushing the black soil and slowly rushing over, and the black soil from the field was constantly shaking off the tracks to the grass.

Sato knew that there was no way to retreat at this time, and in such an open place, two legs could not outrun the metal tracks in any way, so he took a deep breath and said loudly: "Order all troops to be on the spot immediately...... Woo......"

"Boom ......"

Before Sato Hisashi finished speaking, a rapid explosion sounded not far from him, and after the explosion, the military cao next to him fell to a pool of blood without saying a word.

"Yaga!"

Sato Jiu scolded and was also afraid for a while, fortunately, this shell was only a 60 mortar shell, and it was not very powerful, if it was a 105 caliber shell, he would have turned into a broken corpse by now.

"Come here!"

Sato Hisashi stretched out his hand and waved to the herald next to him, and the private quickly bent over and crawled over and squatted next to Satojiu and asked in a trembling voice, "Less...... Your Excellency Shaozo, what are your orders? ”

Seeing the herald's trembling appearance, Sato Hisashi was angry, and reached out and slapped him twice.

"Bang Bang ......"

Don't say it, after two slaps, the herald was really calm.

After two slaps, Sato's anger also subsided a lot, and he said to the herald: "Immediately order the troops to start a defense on the spot and prepare for battle!" ”

"Hay!"

After the order was issued, more than 800 soldiers of the second brigade began to look for cover to prepare for battle, at this time, the large and small craters blown up during the shelling just now became the best cover for the Japanese army, many soldiers opened the safety of the Type 38 rifle and erected the ruler to aim forward, and the more than 10 gunners hurriedly pushed the two trial-made 57 mm rapid-fire guns into the nearby craters, and the nearby ammunition men put the ammunition boxes they were carrying on their backs next to the gun carriages that were opened.

At this time, the tank in front was already clearly visible to the naked eye, with a boxy shape, a tall turret and the infantry following the tank.

Seeing the appearance of the opposing tank, the artillery commander secretly swallowed his spit and shouted: "Shells! ”

The ammunition man on the side immediately handed him the shell that had been prepared long ago, and the gun commander quickly took the shell from the ammunition man's hand, and then skillfully sent it with his right hand, and a 57 mm armor-piercing shell was immediately stuffed into the chamber.

"Click"

As soon as the bolt was closed, the gun commander immediately began to adjust the mechanical ruler, setting the scale of the gauge at a distance of five hundred meters, at which the 57 anti-aircraft guns were enough to penetrate 60 mm thick armor.

The sound of the tracks is getting louder and louder, and the Japanese soldiers lying on the ground can clearly hear the sonorous gurgling of the metal tracks, the sound is getting stronger and closer, and they can even clearly see that the huge gun on the tank is moving slowly, and some sharp-eyed soldiers can even see clearly the black stains on the armor near the tank, and there are even patches of blood on the front armor plates of some tanks, which should have been left by the soldiers of the 57th Division not long ago.

"Brothers, cheer up and kill the gang of devils in front!" The rook mark in the tank looked through the observation hole at the faint yellow-brown figure in front of him and gave a loud order to the microphone.

At this time, Luo Kebiao was not in a good mood, just now their division had obviously conquered the West Gate, and the large army had begun to rush into the city, originally Luo Kebiao was going to follow into the city, but the top suddenly issued an order for them to rush to the south gate to reinforce the stalemate National Guard Division, which couldn't help but make Luo Kebiao feel very unhappy.

However, this unhappiness was immediately thrown out of the sky after learning that there was a large group of Japanese troops in front of him, and he immediately commanded his heavy tank company to take the lead in killing them.

Just as Luo Kebiao gave the order of 10,000, he suddenly felt that the entire tank was shocked, and the whole tank shook for a while and then turned off.

"Oh no, I was shot!"

Luo Kebiao's heart sank first, and he hurriedly said loudly: "The tank was shot, are there any injuries?" ”

"Nope!"

"Head...... I'm fine. ”

"I'm still alive, company commander!"

The tanks were heard with the voices of the members.

"That's good!" Roque's long sigh of relief.

"Restart the tank now and move on!"

"Understood!" The voice of Niu Manzhuang came from the front.

Soon, with a puff of green smoke coming out of the tail of the tank, the Tiger tank, which weighed dozens of tons, moved again.

"Yaga, damn the chariot of China!"

At the gun emplacement, a few hundred meters away from the tank, the originally elated gunners were stunned as they watched the tank with green smoke rising from its tail again.

"What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and continue firing!" The gunner's howl rang out again.

The gunner, who was flustered for a while, hurriedly pulled the cannon rope.

"Boom ......"

Another shell flew forward, and this shell hit a Tiger tank accurately, but it still made their hearts cold, and the Tiger tank even just shivered, and then continued to charge at them. And the good days of that gun position also came, and the continuous firing of the guns exposed their positions, and soon a shell came and blew them into the sky.
