"Last night? No! Xiang Yihang casually opened the wrapping paper of the compressed biscuits, and then began to eat, and after eating the compressed biscuits, he drank two sips of water, and said: "Those little devils were honest last night, not to mention harassment, they didn't even have a voice to speak." ”

Jia Shimao pondered for a while and patted Yi Hang's shoulder: "Today you let the brothers cheer up, don't drop the chain, your second platoon position is located in the salient, the Japanese will definitely give priority to you, and if there is any situation, tell me on the walkie-talkie, don't be embarrassed!" ”

"Company commander, I know, don't worry, I won't hold on." Xiang Yihang chuckled, he understood what Jia Shimao meant, since the Japanese army did not move at all last night, it means that the Japanese army must be recuperating, and there must be a tough battle waiting for them today.

After nibbling on two more biscuits, Xiang Yihang looked at the compressed biscuit in his hand and said with a bitter face: "Company commander, you said that when we ate this thing for the first time before, we thought it was simply a delicacy in the world, and there is nothing better in the world than it, but after eating this thing for a long time, I feel that eating this thing is like chewing soap, and now whoever can give me a bowl of polenta to drink, I would rather call him a master." ”

"So you're a hypocrisy." Jia Shimao scolded with a smile: "Believe it or not, if you take this thing back to your hometown now, you can exchange a yellow flower girl for your daughter-in-law with a bucket of such biscuits." You've only had a full meal for a few days, and the yellow mud on your feet has not yet been washed, and you're going to break your legs if you let your dad know. ”

"I'm just talking about it. Why are you so serious, company commander, don't tell my father. Xiang Yihang was taken aback, and quickly smiled and begged for mercy.

"Haha......"

Jia Shimao couldn't help but laugh. He was about to say another word when the screeching sound of cannonballs suddenly sounded in the sky, and the two men who were talking glanced at each other, and in less than a second they fell to the ground almost simultaneously.

"Boom ......"

A 105-millimeter shell slammed down on the fortifications less than a hundred meters away from them, sending a wave of air all the way above their heads. Immediately, more shells landed on the front, back, and left of the position. The whole earth shook and groaned, and although the two of them were surrounded by an earthen wall several meters behind, they could still feel the shaking of the fortifications. The dust in the sky fell on the two of them. The sonic vibrations caused by the explosion of the shells are so uncomfortable that they are like dozens of hands repeatedly tugging at the nerves in your brain.

And that's not all, when they were under fire. The pungent smell of gunpowder smoke and thick smoke surrounded them all, and the dirt and fragments from the shells smashed on their backs, smashing their lives painfully.

The bombardment lasted more than ten minutes before stopping, and the time that passed in the blink of an eye on weekdays was as long as a century for the soldiers struggling under the fire.

When the shelling finally stopped. The two of them hurriedly got up from the fortifications. Jia Shimao took out his binoculars and began to look outside, and saw that a Japanese soldier more than 1,000 meters away from them was rushing towards them quickly in a straggler line with a gun.

Jia Shimao put away the binoculars, turned his head to Yi Hangdao: "You immediately go back to the position to organize the second platoon to prepare for battle, remember to be sure to invest troops one by one, don't let the little devil serve a pot." ”

"Understood!"

Xiang Yihang nodded to show that he understood, in fact, their current style of play is to put it bluntly, it is a refueling tactic. This tactic is logically said to be a taboo for soldiers, and throwing troops one by one can only let the enemy eat it little by little. However, no tactics are immutable, in the case of the Japanese army occupying the advantage of artillery fire, the more troops placed on the position, the easier it is to become the target of artillery fire, so the third company only visits the strength of one platoon on the surface position at a time, and rotates with each other every time it fights, using this method to preserve strength.

Soon, the characteristic "Titika" sound of the MG34 machine gun sounded on the position, and a dense rain of metal bullets began to shoot forward.

With the sound of machine guns on the position, hundreds of Japanese soldiers who were charging in front of the position were immediately suppressed by the fierce firepower, and many Japanese soldiers who had no time to dodge were shot and fell, and the rest either quickly lay on the ground and did not dare to move, or hid in a hidden place and began to return fire.

And now the Japanese army is still six or seven hundred meters away from the position of the third company, such a distance is too far for the Type 38 rifle, although the theoretical range of the Type 38 rifle is 800 meters, but in fact it is difficult to talk about accuracy after exceeding 350 meters, so in the face of the fierce machine gun fire in the position, they can only use the Type 92 heavy machine gun to fight. However, the poor rate of fire of the Type 92 heavy machine gun, which was only more than 100 rounds per minute, was too pitiful, and the Type 92 heavy machine gun shooters were very powerless in the face of the storm of metal bullets of the MG34.

At an observation post more than 1,000 meters behind the Japanese offensive formation, Major General Kitada Minami, commander of the 32nd Mixed Brigade of the Japanese Army, looked at the Japanese troops who were being suppressed in front of the position, and his face showed a look of surprise and displeasure. After a long time, he muttered: "Baga, I have heard for a long time that the 202nd Army relies on the most advanced German-style equipment, and many troops of the empire have fallen under him, it seems that the rumors are not exaggerated."

Several officers standing around were silent, and after a long time, a big Zuo stood up and said: "Your Excellency Brigade Commander, although the weapons of the people of China are advanced, but now they lack artillery, this is an indisputable fact, the empire has relied on superior artillery fire to suppress them to the death yesterday, and it is okay today, so please don't worry." ”

Bei Tiannan looked at this Dazuo and said lightly: "Aoshan-kun, your 156th Wing attacked for an afternoon under the cover of the heavy artillery company yesterday and failed to break through the defense line of the China Army, I don't know if you can wipe out the China Army in Huanghualing today?"

Aoshan Feng was too strong and slapped the horse's leg, and his old face was slightly red, and he hurriedly said: "Your Excellency Brigade Commander, our army arrived in a hurry yesterday, and the troops were not prepared, after a night's rest, the troops have recovered a lot of energy, I think we will definitely be able to take Huanghualing today." ”

"I hope so." Kita Tiannan was not confused by Okuyama Fengtai's compliments, he said to Okuyama Fengtai seriously: "Okuyama-kun, Commander Tanaka ordered us to rush to Jinhua before the eleventh, today is already the ninth, if we can't arrive on time, the result you know." ”

Hearing the faint killing intent in Kita Tiannan's words, Okuyama Fengtai was shocked and hurriedly bowed and said, "Please rest assured, Your Excellency, we will definitely take Huanghualing today!" (To be continued.) )
