As soon as the artillery attack stopped, the smoke of gunpowder had not yet dispersed on the position, and the dense Japanese troops had already appeared in front of the positions of the independent regiment, and under the cover of artillery fire, the Japanese troops had already advanced the distance to three or four hundred meters.

All kinds of guns in the forward positions have been fired, and the crackling two sides are firing at each other. In terms of troops, the Japanese army has an absolute advantage, and after destroying the first line of defense, the narrow area suddenly opens up, and it is also convenient for the Japanese army to invest a large number of troops, and after the Japanese army sees through the fact that the 75th Army has retreated, it has long been impatient, and it is not at all empty at all, it is directly a wing-level attack, and the intention of destroying the defense line of the independent regiment in one fell swoop is obvious.

On the terrain, the independent regiment took the lead, from a slope of the river beach upward, nearly a thousand meters away, they occupied an absolute high position on the riverbed, and on the left and right sides were impassable mountains and mountains, this gap was the only way for the Japanese army to climb the river valley, and there was no need to worry about the Japanese army using their classic tactics - the two flanks were outflanked, and if they wanted to come up, they had to attack all the way up, otherwise there was no other way.

Fortunately, Jiang Haoran also took special care of Tian Long, and the light and heavy machine gun equipment was increased by more than 30 units, and the ammunition was openly supplied. Of course, this open supply is actually watery, except for Chen Mianwu's 55th Division, which is Chen Chen's descendant, the 75th Army is well-equipped, and the ammunition is also sufficient, the other Hunan army and the Gui army are all very poor, plus they were also counting on coming to Burma to receive British equipment, where would there be a lot of weapons and ammunition for them to bring out, who would have thought that they had not yet received supplies, and the weapons and equipment hoarded in Lashio would fall into the hands of the enemy.

If Chen Mianwu continued to be his division commander, he would be completely able to stand alone, but now that he is not the acting army commander, he will have to consider the ammunition of the other two divisions. Therefore, even if Jiang Haoran ordered the supply to be opened, there would be water in the hands of the independent regiment.

But in any case, at least their share of bullets is double, and Chen Mianwu also knows the importance of the task of the independent regiment, and the people who are deployed to Tian Long are basically veterans who have been on the battlefield, which also ensures that their combat effectiveness is not weak.

Therefore, although the Japanese offensive was fierce, the battle was not without fighting, the enemy came up in a large formation, and the independent regiment also put out all the troops at the bottom of the box, not only did not leave the reserves, but after less than half an hour, Tian Long even brought the guard company up, and he went to the battlefield, and the command left only the chief of staff Xu Quan and a few military staff officers, which was still afraid that the military department would have some urgent orders to come, otherwise these people would not stay.

Although the 38th Division has been formed less than two years ago, and it is a three-unit B division, it has been stationed in the Guangzhou area on the Chinese battlefield, fighting Zhongshan and Conghua, but the battle has not been less than a part, and the Japanese army has been brainwashed by militaristic thinking since childhood, and its willpower is generally higher than that of the national army.

However, although the independent regiment is a newly formed team, after all, it is also a carefully selected elite veteran, and after Jiang Haoran arrived, not to mention the increase in military salaries, and the victory along the way, the morale is flourishing, and the two sides are also equal.

Soon, an hour passed, during which the Separate Regiment repelled three enemy attacks, each of which was preceded by a round of enemy artillery fire.

On the forward position, the Japanese army was full of corpses, but the independent regiment was not much better, the trenches were full of stumps and broken arms of the soldiers, and the low-lying places were a puddle of blood, and there were not many killed by Japanese guns, most of them were torn apart by shells and grenades, so there were not many wounded soldiers.

Looking at the Japanese army retreating like a tide, Tian Long grinned with his waist crossed with gunpowder smoke, and he had a sense of accomplishment, but this sense of accomplishment didn't last for two minutes before he was stunned, and he also panicked.

The results of the battle damage were quickly reported, and more than 800 of the more than 2,400 people, except for the more than 100 people of the first battalion on the hillside, and there was less than one base number of bullets, and only half of the base number of artillery shells remained.

Chief of Staff Xu Quan immediately said: "Tuanzuo, it's almost, it's not long before dawn now, I think while the enemy is retreating, let's also retreat quickly, these hundreds of people can't repel the next attack of the Japanese army, once the Japanese army rushes up, we will only have the share of the whole army." ”

Tian Long glanced at the still swarthy Dongfang, and said: "The fish belly is not white yet, it is not dawn, our task has not been completed, fight again, fight again It will be almost the same." ”

The chief of staff wanted to say something, but was stopped by Tian Long and said, "Needless to say, I have already decided, send someone to see how Yao Mengzi is prepared?" We're counting on them this time. ”

Xu Quan shook his head helplessly and left, he has been partnering with Tian Long for two years, and he has always been his underhand, knowing his stubbornness, it is useless to say more.

Tian Long didn't dare to delay, the troops were too small, and the battlefield needed to be rearranged, so this time he pinned his hopes on Yao Menglin, hoping that this treasure would not be wrong.

He immediately ordered his men to move closer to the south, leaving a position to the north for the enemy to charge, and at the same time, to repair the fortifications as soon as possible.

Before the troops were fully adjusted, the Japanese artillery attack began again, although it was small-caliber infantry artillery and mortars, but the density was high, and the trenches that were already full of craters suffered a baptism again, Tian Long didn't know that this was the first time the Japanese artillery attacked, but he knew that this would definitely be the last.

As soon as the artillery attack stopped, the officers began to howl the soldiers to get out quickly, and after the Japanese artillery attack, the infantry would charge, this set of tactics has been fought on the Chinese battlefield for several years, and everyone who has been on the battlefield knows it.

As soon as the soldiers entered the position, it could already be seen that the Japanese army below was advancing in a straggler formation, and the dense appearance of the field of vision was probably more than a thousand, and the visibility of a little fire on the battlefield was limited, and I didn't know how many troops were following in the dark.

Because there were not many bullets, this time Tian Long ordered everyone to put the enemy within a distance of 100 meters and then shoot, aim and then fight. Chief of Staff Xu Quan has not yet brought news of Yao Menglin, and he doesn't know if they can complete the task, and once they fail, they can only hold the idea of killing one to save their capital and killing two to make money.

There are not many bullets in the independent regiment, but the Japanese army is very rich, the suppressive fire is fired immediately, the light and heavy machine gun bullets sweep the front line of dust, and then the grenades that enter the firing field also fly like raindrops, the machine gun bullets are protected by cover and easy to dodge, and the grenadiers of the Japanese army are unguardable, and the grenadiers of the Japanese army shoot the grenadiers with high accuracy, most of them fly directly into the trenches of the independent regiment, the battle has not yet begun, and casualties are inevitable.
