The gunsmoke-filled Yaqueshan defense line was full of the sound of grenade explosions, the sound of rifle fire and the roar of machine guns from three o'clock in the afternoon to the present, the 106th Division and the Third Division all fired real fire, the sun was still very good in the afternoon of July, and the sun was hanging in the sky, but here, the sunlight was completely obscured by the smoke and dust of various shell explosions, and when seen from the telescope, the distant mountains and near the forest were shrouded in a haze, and as long as it was 200 meters apart, it was basically impossible to see the truth.

The shrill whistling of the shells tearing through the air rang out from time to time, and the bright light from the explosion was not so dazzling in the afternoon, and the sweeping air wave carried a large amount of debris and sediment rose with the black smoke, leaving craters of various sizes on the ground after the shock wave passed. Some were caused by mortar shells, and some were left by the explosion of Japanese mountain and field artillery;

The sound of gunfire came from the looming smoke, sometimes dense to the east, which was the direction of Phoenix Mountain; Sometimes the jungle was dense, and it was the line of defense of the Eighteenth Regiment; After the silence, every brother of the Third Division on the battlefield sat in the trenches and in the individual bunkers, trying to recover every bit of physical strength, and today the Japanese devils attacked endlessly, and they did not give everyone time to kick at all, and the fierce battle lasted for three hours, and the multigrain cakes in their pockets had already been eaten, and the water in the kettle was gone; The logistics behind are working hard to deliver ammunition to the battlefield, as for water and food, there is no more opportunity to deliver it, the Japanese artillery bombardment is sounding all the time, and the brothers of the transport company have to dodge the shells and ensure the consumption of ammunition on the defensive line, they are already transporting supplies with their lives

Although the brothers of the Third Division have undergone several rectifications, after the bloody battles in the past few days, the recruits have become veterans, the soldiers who can survive the war have their own survival methods, and the soldiers who cannot learn the skills of survival have become corpses lying in the trenches

The squad leaders of the 18th, 15th, and 13th regiments at the forefront have been killed in more than half of the three-hour battle, and promotion in the line of fire is a tradition on the battlefield, and veterans with outstanding abilities have been promoted to the position of squad leader one after another, but these veterans' calm faces cannot show a trace of joy, because they know that this squad leader may not report to the division headquarters, because only those who survive this battle may be the official squad leader

"Boom, boom" The Japanese mountain artillery began to shell again, and the brothers did not need to shout from their commanders, but immediately squatted in individual bunkers and trenches, and it was time to compete for luck during the shelling

"Boom!" A shell exploded inside the trench of the 15th Regiment on Phoenix Mountain

"Yan Laosan, look at Squad Leader Liang!" The platoon commander's voice rang out,

"Platoon leader, Liang Luo has already died; You said that people have called Liang Lao Er for so many years, and he is safe and sound; You have to appoint a squad leader and change your name. This shift leader died in less than half an hour! We don't have a class leader anymore! Yan Laosan said,

"Damn, Yan Laosan, you will be the squad leader of your second class next." The platoon commander cursed,

"Platoon leader, I don't think I need a squad leader, I'm left with the second dog in our class." Yan Laosan didn't want to touch his head, two squad leaders died in a row, and he didn't want to be the third.

"Whatever you want, you take care of the two dogs; He's still a kid! The platoon commander yelled,

"Ergouzi, follow me. Don't show your head! Yan Laosan sighed and dragged a thin-faced child next to him, who seemed to be 14 years old

"The devil is here, call me!" Pan Zhen, the commander of the 15th Regiment, also went to the trenches, and the attack of the 123rd Wing of the Japanese Army was dead on Phoenix Mountain, and the devils could take turns in several brigades, but the 15th Regiment had more than half of the regiment left, and there was no change, only the top of the dead;

"Damn the sun! Why don't you fall down the mountain! Pan Zhi cursed, the Japanese army would not normally launch such a fierce attack at night, and the brothers could take a good breath and rest

"Da Da Da"

"Bang, bang"

The sound of Czech light machine guns and rifles sounded, the 15th Regiment had no heavy machine guns, and after three hours of fighting, all six heavy machine guns in the regiment were bombarded into parts by the devil's mountain artillery

"Pay attention to the transfer of the machine gun, you can only shoot one magazine!" Pan Zhen finally understood that the Japanese mortars and grenadiers were machine guns designed to hit the defenders.

"The infantry is aiming, don't waste bullets, there is not much ammunition in the back. When the devil gets close, greet him with a grenade! Pan Zhen kept shouting,

"Commander, call for support! Our regiments fought so badly, but the sixteenth regiment is still watching the show in Yaque Mountain? The commander of a battalion shouted with gauze wrapped around his head,

"Don't fucking talk nonsense, He Jianye is not a bad seed, the division commander must have an arrangement! Resist me! Pan Zhi roared hideously,

Phoenix Mountain, a new round of fighting continued between the 15th Regiment and the 123rd Wing of the Japanese Army, flying bullets, grenades exploding everywhere, mortar shells flying from afar, constantly killing the soldiers of both China and Japan, now these two troops are competing in willpower, to see who can resist, if the 15th Regiment collapses first, it is Yaque Mountain surrounded by the Japanese army, if the Japanese army can't hold on, at most it is to postpone the devil's attack time, and give the Yaque Mountain defense line another period of time

In the position of Xianglu Mountain, the 13th Regiment that had just returned here was hurriedly accepting the defensive line, and the wounded soldiers were transported into the regiment headquarters in wailing, and now only the regimental headquarters and artillery positions had semi-underground bunkers in the entire Xianglu Mountain

Wang Zhaohua took a sip of water and ordered,

"The third battalion went to the trenches and was optimistic about the defensive line to the north, and the second battalion was ready to support in the second trench to the north; A battalion is scattered in other directions to beware of the sneak attack of devils! ”

"Oops! After an afternoon, I can finally take a break, this time the little devil does not break through the defense line of the 15th Regiment, and the incense burner mountain is still safe for the time being! Wang Zhaohua lay on the hay at the regiment headquarters and thought,

He was so tired that within two minutes of lying down, Wang Zhaohua let out a subtle snoring sound

"Boom, boom, boom" Iino Kendai directly ordered the mountain artillery squadron of the 113th Wing to start test firing, shelling the front-line position of Xianglu Mountain, which was once occupied by the Hatada detachment, Iino Kendai Zuo knew the fortifications here, although the Chinese army would strengthen and build some more after the occupation, but the general situation Iino Kendai Zuo was very clear!

"Holy shit! What's the situation? Wang Zhaohua jumped up directly from the hay,

"Regiment commander, the devils began shelling the trenches of the third battalion." The commander of the guard company rushed in directly and reported,

"Damn it, damn little devil, why did I get there, fucking blow it up? When the labor and management didn't come back to Xianglu Mountain, the three battalions of the 18th Regiment didn't have any shit, and the labor and management came back and the ass didn't sit hot before they came to bombard me? Fuck me! Wang Zhaohua scolded angrily!

"Regiment commander, a brigade of devils is assembled in the grass below the mountain, and it seems that they are preparing to bypass the position of the eighteenth regiment and attack the mountain directly from the north!" The guards reported on the situation at the forward positions,

"Let's go, let's go!" Wang Zhaohua didn't care that the Japanese mountain artillery was shelling, and directly grabbed the telescope and went to the position of the third battalion
