Early in the morning of August 4, under the bombardment of the devil's army aviation, the abandoned first-line position of the 16th Regiment of Fenghuangzui collapsed, and the devil's field artillery wing then carried out an extended bombardment for half an hour, all the shells fell on the second-line position of the 16th regiment, and the defense line rebuilt by relying on the crater at night was destroyed, and the Japanese 147th Wing successfully boarded the first-line position under the organization of the officer, and did not encounter the resistance of the defenders, but the broken position and a large amount of floating soil made the attacking devils embarrassed. The leader of the devil squadron, who was standing in the floating soil, held a telescope and looked at the second-line position of the 16th Regiment......

"Yaga! Are the people of China really ground rats? How come there are so many fortifications on this mound behind it! The squadron leader cursed,

In the telescope, only less than 600 meters away from the first-line position is the second-line position of the 16th Regiment, the position relies on the houses of several villages to build, although the houses have been completely destroyed in the artillery fire, but the surrounding small mounds give the 16th Regiment natural shelter and defense convenience, one kilometer northeast of the second-line position is the hub of the battlefield Jinguan Bridge, defending the Jinguan Bridge is the brothers of the 15th Regiment of the 3rd Division; The second-line position is already the last position of the 16th Regiment, if the second-line position is lost, the Japanese army can launch an attack on Jinguanqiao from two directions at the same time, and similarly, if Nanchangpu is lost, Jinguanqiao will be attacked by the Japanese army from the northeast defense line, so that under the siege of three sides, it will undoubtedly be a disaster for the 15th Regiment;

"Ding Ding Ding ......" In the midst of artillery fire, the phone of the regimental headquarters of the 16th Regiment rang;

He Jianye, who was restless, picked up the phone and said: "I'm He Jianye, this is the 16th regiment!" ”

"He Jianye, how is the position?" Lai Chuanxiang, the commander of the Ninth Brigade, asked anxiously on the phone,

"Brigade commander, the front-line positions have been lost, and the devil's aerial bombs and heavy artillery have completely destroyed the fortifications; Now we retreat to the second-line positions around Macun to hold on! He Jianye reported,

"Ahh The second-line position must be defended! The location there is so important for Kim Kwan-kyos! Lai Chuanxiang anxiously ordered,

Now the fierce battle has been fought for 3 days, and the various positions on the front line have been bombarded by the devil's heavy artillery and aerial bombs in turn, and there are two unsatisfactory regiments of the 18th and 13th regiments behind the third division as reserves, but Jinguanqiao and Fenghuangzui are exposed to the devil's artillery fire and may be attacked at any time, and the reserves in Zhao Xitian's hands do not dare to be sent casually now......

"Don't worry, the brigade commander, the people are in the position! The 16th Regiment guarantees to hold the Phoenix Chew! He Jianye said loudly, as if he was cheering himself up;

"Good! If there is a situation, report it to the brigade headquarters immediately! After Lai Chuanxiang finished speaking, he hung up the phone, the sound of artillery on the phone was clearly audible, and it was estimated that the 16th Regiment was struggling in blood and fire.

One by one, the shells fell on the position of the 16th Regiment, there were heavy artillery shells, there were also 75mm field artillery shells, the position of the 16th Regiment rose countless fire balls, the ground shook the mountains, and the entrance door panel of the underground artillery hole was constantly subjected to impact, as the shelling continued,

The "boom" door panel finally completed its mission, collapsed with a bang, and then entered the artillery hole with a large amount of smoke and shrapnel, shrapnel hit the dirt wall of the anti-artillery hole, making a "poof" sound, and the smoke and dust were exhausted after turning the L-shaped bend, and the formation was scattered on the ground......

The brothers in the anti-artillery hole were crowded into a small space, and a large amount ......of smoke and dust entered the lungs, causing bursts of coughing.

In the face of the shelling of the little devils, it is impossible for the poor artillery of the Chinese army to counterattack in the daytime, there are devils' planes in the sky, and there are heavy artillery on the ground, once they counterattack, they will be destroyed by the devils, only to hide, and show their sovereignty when they need it most......

The devil's artillery stopped, but there was no whistle on the position of the 16th regiment, the commander of the first battalion was afraid that the observation post had all been killed, and waited for five minutes after the artillery stopped, and still no shells attacked, anxiously rushed out of the bunker, came to the trench, held a telescope and looked ahead, and found that the strength of a squadron of the devil had occupied the first-line position, was building fortifications, and did not immediately launch an attack on the second-line position, but looking at the devil's movements, it seems that it is not easy to build a position on the floating soil, All of them lay on the ground with their guns pointed at the side of the second-line position to prevent the counterattack of the Chinese army......

"What's the situation?" He Jianye came to Zhu Yunhua's side and asked,

"The devils did not attack, occupied the front-line positions; Look over there. Zhu Yunhua pointed to the big mound in front of him and said,

"Hehe, the devil wants to take it step by step!" He Jianye muttered and said,

"Commander, do you want to fight back?" Zhu Yunhua asked,

"Now to counterattack is to send to death, you see, the devil's machine gun position and mortar position are almost the same, I estimate that the position of the devil's artillery squadron will also be on it, the devil is ready to fight a trench battle with us." He Jianye said,

"The devil is reinforcing the position now, we can't be idle, call Wu Bing over, fight trench warfare, their artillery battalion is the main force, you wait to send someone to cooperate." He Jianye said,

"Yes, no problem!" Zhu Yunhua said,

"Commander, you call me!" After Wu Bing came over, he lay down on the trench, looked at the front and asked,

"Well, take the telescope to look at the position of the devil in front, the devil is ready to rely on our front-line position to give us a step by step, you go to prepare, the artillery hole of the whole position is still selected by you, dig a traffic trench of sufficient width and depth outside the anti-artillery hole, there is only one requirement, the assembled battle defense artillery or infantry artillery can be moved smoothly, and each gun can not be too far from the bunker, we can only fight and go! Do you understand? He Jianye said,

"Understood! I'll go now, but the brethren's fortifications may not be enough; We have six anti-aircraft guns and two infantry guns. Wu Bing said worriedly,

"It's okay, let the brethren squeeze in, if we don't arrange this, we will be very passive in the afternoon; In addition, the engineer company was immediately notified of the urgent construction, and it was necessary to build sufficient bunkers for the use of artillery. He Jianye said,

"Zhu Yunhua, send a company to the position and closely monitor the movements of the devils on the opposite side! The rest returned to the bunker. He Jianye said,

"Yes, Captain." Zhu Yunhua began to convey the order,

He Jianye saw that the devils would not attack for a while and a half, and returned to the regiment headquarters. He Jianye, who felt that something was missing, sat on the ground of the regiment headquarters and patted his head,

"Tanks? There are mounds everywhere here, and besides, I have my own anti-war artillery, so I am really not afraid; Fuck me! Gas? We don't have gas masks, the devil's position is so close, it's over with gas bombs in the wind, it's impossible to prevent it from bunkers! He Jianye suddenly realized.
