"We're going to protect the infantry!"

The officers and men of the armored battalion shouted loudly, Yin Jinshan began to give orders, and thirty-eight tanks began to move.

"We're going to protect the tank!"

The officers and soldiers of the Jibu battalion also shouted loudly, and the battalion commander Ye Zimin began to command the troops to attack with the tanks.

The area of several hundred meters became a battle between the Chinese and Japanese troops, and the first company of the armored battalion advanced in a horizontal formation, and the second and third companies advanced in left and right echelons.

The battalion commander Yin Jinshan and the deputy battalion commander Xiao Zhiwei rode in two Type 97 tanks that followed the first armored company, and two people were responsible for commanding the armored battalion troops.

The artillerymen of the mounted artillery battalion quickly began to assemble the artillery dragged by mules and horses, and one artillery position after another quickly began to be established.

Six infantry guns, six anti-tank guns, six mountain guns, and six mortars set up four artillery positions, ten crooked light machine guns, and five Type 92 heavy machine guns set up machine gun positions around the artillery positions to cover the actions of the artillerymen.

Wang Yanbo, commander of the mounted artillery battalion, observed the distance of the Japanese artillery through the artillery mirror, and Ma Xuepeng, the deputy battalion commander, held a telescope to check the Japanese troops in action.

"Four anti-tank guns, two kilometers away, mortar company, mountain artillery company ready, concentrate fire to knock out the Japanese anti-tank guns!"

Ma Xuepeng immediately checked the four anti-tank guns that followed the two infantry squadrons, and the artillery were equipped with high-powered telescopes, which could clearly observe long-distance targets.

FOUR 75MM KRUPP MOUNTAIN GUNS, FOUR 120MM MORTARS IMMEDIATELY BEGAN TO PREPARE FOR FIRING, AND TWO COMPANY COMMANDERS TOOK OUT BINOCULARS TO OBSERVE.

Ma Xuepeng quickly measured the shooting yuan, and a series of artillery terms began to shout out from Ma Xuepeng's mouth.

The artillerymen immediately began to adjust the angle of the artillery, and Ma Xuepeng shouted: "Load the grenade, one test shot." ”

"Reload the grenade, one test shot." The two company commanders repeated Ma Xuepeng's order loudly.

The bolts were opened, the grenades were loaded, the artillerymen reported loudly, and as Ma Xuepeng gave the order to fire, grenades began to be shot out.

Four mountain guns were the first to fire, and four grenades quickly fired at the Japanese anti-tank guns, and the company commander of the mountain artillery company held a telescope to observe, and his face showed a nervous expression.

"Boom, boom!" THE SOUND OF GRENADE EXPLOSIONS SOUNDED ONE AFTER ANOTHER, AND A SHELL FELL IMPARTIALLY ON THE ANTI-TANK GUN DRAGGED BY THE JAPANESE MULES AND HORSES, AND THE JAPANESE 47MM ANTI-TANK GUN WAS DESTROYED ON THE SPOT, AND THE MULES AND HORSES PULLING THE ANTI-TANK GUNS WERE BLOWN INTO A MESS OF MINCED MEAT.

Another shell landed next to the Japanese anti-tank gun, killing more than a dozen artillerymen, while the remaining two shells missed.

When the company commander of the mountain artillery company saw this scene, his face became gloomy.

"Boom, boom!" FOUR 120MM MORTARS BEGAN TO FIRE, AND FOUR SHELLS BEGAN TO FALL AROUND THE JAPANESE ANTI-TANK GUNS.

Two of the remaining three Japanese anti-tank guns were destroyed on the spot, and the remaining two shells also caused more than thirty casualties to the Japanese infantry.

The Japanese artillerymen realized that the opposing artillery was attacking their own anti-tank guns, and more than two dozen Japanese artillerymen immediately pushed the only remaining anti-tank gun and immediately hid it.

At this time, the distance between the Japanese infantry and the armored battalion was less than 1,500 meters, and the Japanese troops began to advance in line with the offensive line.

The leaders of the Japanese squads began to work out the offensive route of their squads, and the light machine guns and grenadiers advanced rapidly, and when they reached the predetermined location, they immediately set up.

After the light machine guns and grenadiers were erected, the Japanese riflemen quickly began to advance, and the Japanese alternately covered the advance, but they ignored the fact that their light machine guns and grenadiers, as well as rifles, could not pose a threat to the tanks at all.

As for the four anti-tank guns that wanted to use the tank as a live target, three had already been destroyed by this time.

"Boom, boom!" The Japanese infantry and the tanks were 800 meters away, and the troops of the Jibu Battalion began to shoot, and the three infantry guns of the Jibu Battalion had begun to be erected on the high ground, and the three infantry guns began to shoot at the Japanese infantry, and at the same time, the three Type 92 heavy machine guns of the machine gun company and the three Maxim heavy machine guns of each company also began to fire.

The infantry followed behind the tank, which had changed from full speed to half speed.

Two Type 97 tanks, two Type 89 tanks, 10 Type 95 tanks, 12 T-26 tanks, and 12 Vickers tanks began to use machine guns to strafe the Japanese infantry, and the tank machine guns of 38 tanks fired at the same time, and the bullets formed a series of fire nets, and these bullets rained down on the devil soldiers.

"Da Da Da!" The heavy machine guns of the infantry battalion, the machine guns of the tanks, the ghost soldiers just felt that it was dark in front of them, and they fell to the ground.

The more than fifty devil soldiers who rushed to the front all fell to the ground, and each devil soldier would have at least three or four bullet holes in his body.

The two captains looked at the scene in front of them with panicked faces, they lay on the ground, and couldn't help but look back.

But when they turned back, they realized that the squadron of anti-tank guns had been attacked by the opposing artillery.

"Shoot fast, don't let the tank get closer." A captain squadron leader shouted.

More than a dozen devil soldiers began to control the light machine gun fire, and three crooked light machine guns began to fire at the tank.

The bullets clanged on the tank, and there were only small craters on the tank, but they did not cause any damage inside.

"All of them!"

THE STRUCTURE OF THE INFANTRY BATTALION IS THE SAME AS THAT OF THE INFANTRY BATTALION, BUT EACH COMPANY OF THE INFANTRY BATTALION IS EQUIPPED WITH TWO MORE 20MM GUNS.

The Japanese light machine guns began to fire, and the six machine guns of three infantry companies began to concentrate their firepower.

THE ARMOR-PIERCING BULLETS FIRED BY THE 20MM MACHINE GUN HIT THE DEVIL SOLDIERS DIRECTLY, AND THIS ARMOR-PIERCING BULLET HIT THE DEVIL SOLDIERS' BODIES, AND THE DEVIL SOLDIERS WERE TORN APART LIKE BROKEN WATERMELONS.

"Boom!" With a bang, the only surviving anti-tank gun began to fire, and an armor-piercing shell was fired at the tank.

This anti-tank gun happened to be fired at the car of Dai Yuxuan, the commander of the first company, and Dai Yuxuan ordered the tank to immediately start dodging at full speed.

But this armor-piercing bullet still hit the tracks of the tank, and the Type 89 tank was paralyzed on the spot, even though Dai Yuxuan was wearing a fur hat, his forehead was still broken, and his entire face was covered with bright red blood.

THE TANKS OF THE FIRST COMPANY BEGAN TO STOP ADVANCING, ELEVEN TANKS LAUNCHED A FIRE SALVO, ONE 57MM TANK GUN, TEN 37MM TANK GUNS FIRED GRENADES AT THE JAPANESE ANTI-TANK GUNS, THE ONLY SURVIVING ANTI-TANK GUNS OF THE JAPANESE ARMY WERE COVERED WITH GRENADES, AND MORE THAN A DOZEN JAPANESE ARTILLERY SOLDIERS WERE BLOWN TO PIECES.

The deputy commander of the first company began to take over the command, but when the Japanese anti-tank guns attacked, the armored battalion stopped using machine gun fire and moved at full speed.
