Chapter 352: Poison Gas

On the northwest highlands of He Zhou, Wang Zhaohua was still ordering the brothers to dig bunkers and trenches, there were too many devils, and one more trench would give him more hope to hold the position;

"Commander, it has been counted, and there are more than one hundred and fifty gas masks left by Commander He; Barely enough for a company! "The commander of the second battalion of the thirteenth regiment reported,

"There is only one squadron in the devil's position, how much more do you want? It is still the fast result of He Jianye's attack that can be used so much, otherwise according to the urine nature of the devil, don't want to stay! Wang Zhaohua trained the dissatisfied second battalion commander,

"Aren't I afraid that there are too few things, and we still can't keep the devil against poison gas?" The second battalion commander said embarrassedly,

"Alright, everything is for the brothers in the machine-gun squad; If the devil gasses again, all the brethren with rifles will go down, and the machine guns will be left; The devil is not enough to die! Wang Zhaohua ordered,

"Yes!" The second battalion commander shrugged his shoulders and walked away, in this bloody battlefield, one more second of life counts as a second, and it is nothing to offend the officials, I don't know if I can go back alive, who cares so much?

Fortunately, the brothers of the 13th Regiment waited for a large amount of miscellaneous grain cakes to be replenished at the 16th Regiment, otherwise they would only be working hungry now, and the supplies from the division headquarters have not been sent to the position until now......

In the two hours before dusk, the Japanese 113th Wing did not attack again, but only drank water and rested in the front positions, as if they were also waiting for the coming of night;

At 8 o'clock in the afternoon, the sun slowly exuded the last trace of afterglow, Zhou Qingxiang arrived at Wujiawa with all the troops of the 15th regiment and brigade headquarters, and slowly walked towards the northwest position on He Zhou accompanied by He Jianye......

"Alright, Brother He; Thanks for the help! I'll set up a defensive line at the foot of the mountain with the 15th Regiment, you go back! Zhou Qingxiang didn't put the brigade commander on the shelf, and asked He Jianye to go back......

At nine o'clock in the evening, new supplies from the division headquarters arrived; Several truckloads of mines and some mortar shells, Zhao Xitian treated He Jianye well, at least the supply never treated him badly;

"Call the engineer company commander Yang Shunsen to come to the regiment headquarters!" He Jianye ordered,

"Commander, it's so late; And there is no combat mission, why call the engineer company commander to do it? Lenzaki asked,

"Hmph, the devil's wing is estimated to have killed less than 500 people in an afternoon attack; We withdrew to Wujiawa until now, and we haven't heard gunshots in that direction, I guess the devil must be holding back at night! He Jianye said,

"Regiment leader, the devil's heavy fire attack on the high ground at night is not very powerful, the devil is not so stupid!" Leng Qi said,

"Now the support in the theater has been delayed, except for the eighteenth regiment, the other three regiments of our third division have suffered heavy casualties, but the eighteenth regiment does not dare to return to help easily! If you don't do a ghost tonight, you won't be able to spend it tomorrow! Night fighting is our forte, and the more critical we are, the more we have to fight for our lives with devils! You go and assemble your troops, and set out on time at eleven o'clock in the evening; The position here is directly abandoned, and the field fortifications of this position of the devil are attacked! Only after we are tired and disabled can we wait for support from the war zone! He Jianye pointed to the field assembly place of the 113th Wing and said,

"Regiment commander, one of our regiments attacked the camp of a wing of devils at night? Are you sure? Do you want to inform the division headquarters? Lenzaki asked,

"Yes, let's just say that the 16th Regiment is preparing to launch a harassing attack at night to relieve the pressure on the 8th Brigade's defense tomorrow!" He Jianye said,

"Good!" Leng Qi frowned and walked away, the regiment commander's plan was too risky, now the brothers who can fight in the entire sixteenth regiment, including the lightly wounded, are less than 1,500 people, and they must report to the division commander and be responsible for Wu Jiawa's position!

"Regiment Commander" Yang Shunsen came to the regiment headquarters and reported,

"You take Wang Qiang's three battalions, and in the east of the northwest highlands on this continent, it is this avenue that lays mines! The density is higher, and nearly 500 thunderbolts sent down by the division headquarters are all distributed; Prevent the devil from being attacked on both sides! He Jianye ordered,

"Yes, Commander; So I went? Yang Shunsen asked,

"Well, go ahead! Don't light torches! Don't let the devils see it! He Jianye reminded,

"Understood." Yang Shunsen slowly walked out of the regiment headquarters,

If the devil sends troops to support from the position of Liujia Village, it is this road recently, although the devils who attack the highlands now still have sufficient troops, but they can't stand the devils' determination to occupy the highlands, the Confucian Temple has become a flesh and blood mill, and the possibility of attacking here according to the habits of the devils is too high.

The moonlight was good tonight, offsetting the influence of the night, Yang Shunsen and Wang Qiang led more than 500 brothers to dig pits on the avenue and slowly set up minefields......

The departure position of the 113th Wing, on the position, Kenten Iino sat in the trench with a saber, and there were three captains standing in front of him.

"All the Imperial soldiers have rested, don't the people of China like to fight at night? Tonight we will use our dignified bayonets to take the positions of the Chinese people. Kenten Iino looked at the officer in front of him and said,

"At ten o'clock in the evening, the attack was launched on time; Keiichi Abe, the 2nd Infantry Brigade was responsible for attacking from the front; Kenten Iino ordered,

"Hay!" Keiichi Abe received the order,

"Jiro Yokoyama stayed in his position; After the 3rd Brigade attacked the position of the Abe Brigade, it launched a charge and killed all the Shina people on the position! Kenten Iino ordered,

"Hay!" Although Yokoyama Jiro was full of unwillingness, who let his soldiers run back directly by the grenades of the Shina people in the afternoon attack, seriously losing the face of the 113th Wing, and only led the task of staying behind......

"Your Excellency, according to the weather conditions at night, the poisonous gas will be quickly dispersed under the blowing of the mountain wind, and it is recommended that the position of the Chinese people be covered with poisonous gas an hour before the attack is launched, so as to minimize casualties for our imperial army; At night, I am afraid that the people of China will die directly in their sleep! "The squadron leader of the infantry running squadron reported,

"Well, there should be many more people on the mountain, and we will attack at ten o'clock; You start using special shells at nine o'clock to hit the high ground of the Shina people, and let the Shina people die in their sleep! Kenten Iino ordered,

"Hay!" Now there are less than 20 minutes before the time of the shelling, the leader of the mountain artillery squadron immediately went to prepare, the shelling parameters have been completely figured out during the day, and the difficulty of the shelling at night is not great, anyway, they are all special shells, and there are no dead ends in the pervasive poisonous gas, so there is no need to worry about wasting the power of the shells......

The 13th Regiment on the Northwest Highlands on He Zhou, under the order of Wang Zhaohua, in order to prevent the shelling of the devils, the soldiers all slept in the newly dug bunkers, and a company was left on the position to guard against the night attack of the devils, as long as the devils dared to come, the 15th Regiment under the mountain could be put into battle at any time, so Wang Zhaohua did not panic!
