The troops of the Ninth Army began to launch a strong attack on Huizhou, and the main force of the 8th Regiment of Honor had also begun to cross the anti-tank trenches, and the engineering units quickly began to fill the anti-tank trenches to provide a road for the armored troops to pass.

But so far, the troops of the Honorary Eighth Regiment of the Honorary Fourth Division have paid a heavy price in casualties, from the colonel commander He Ziming down, to pay more than 600 casualties, which is almost the number of a battalion, but the Honorary Eighth Regiment has not flinched.

Yingde, the former enemy headquarters of the 4th theater of operations.

It was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, but Sun Weiguo did not rest, and when he was fighting, Sun Weiguo often did not rest for several nights, and he paid close attention to all the news on the front line.

Shen Wei stood beside Sun Weiguo in a military uniform, she looked at Sun Weiguo, sighed softly, but did not speak.

"The commander-in-chief, Chief of Staff Zhao, sent a telegram that the troops of the Ninth Army have launched an operation, and at present the Honorable Eighth Regiment has crossed the anti-tank trenches and established fortifications, and the engineering units have also begun to fill the anti-tank trenches to provide access roads for armored troops. The commander-in-chief, the colonel of the Honorary Eighth Regiment, He Ziming, was unfortunately hit by shrapnel while leading the team in combat and has died. ”

Major General Gao Shen Ge Haifeng came to Sun Weiguo with a telegram, and he reported softly.

When Sun Weiguo heard the news, he was slightly stunned, with a sad expression on his face, he nodded silently, took the message and looked at it, and did not answer immediately.

"Bury all the fallen officers and soldiers, and at the same time immediately send pensions to their families." After being silent for a while, Sun Weiguo commanded softly.

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief." Ge Haifeng immediately saluted and said.

After giving this order, Sun Weiguo stood in front of the map in a daze, he stared at the map and was silent for a long time.

The fierce battle in Huizhou continued, and at 10:50 p.m., two bomber squadrons of the 21st Independent Flying Group of the Japanese Army, a full 24 bombers, began to appear in Huizhou.

As the 10th Wing of the Japanese Army's Independence Mountain Artillery began to fire flares, the anti-tank trenches were instantly like daylight, and the 8th Regiment of Honor and the engineer units began to be completely exposed.

One bomber after another flew quickly into the sky, one after another aerial bombs fell without warning, huge explosions began to sound, and the ground shook violently.

With a "boom", an aerial bomb exploded, and more than a dozen soldiers nearby were lifted high by the air wave, and then fell to the ground fiercely.

The shock wave began to spread in all directions, and many soldiers were affected, severed arms and stumps were everywhere, and anti-tank trenches dug by the Japanese began to be damaged.

Some of the anti-tank trenches began to be blown flat, and many deep craters appeared everywhere.

The engineer units received relatively little defensive training, and they paid a heavy price in casualties under the bombing of Japanese bombers.

Twenty-four imp bombers bombed for forty minutes, and after half past eleven, the imp bombers began to stop bombing.

As the Japanese bombardment stopped, the Japanese artillery began to carry out fierce artillery bombardment, and under the cover of artillery, more than 4,000 devil soldiers of four infantry brigades began to attack.

At this time, the casualties of the Eighth Regiment of Honor had exceeded 1,000 people, and many weapons were destroyed.

It's just that it has just been bombed by Japanese bombers, and the little devil shells are still coming over, and there are many firepower vacancies in the 8th Regiment of Honor.

The little devil with the rifle was getting closer and closer, Zhang Wenbin quickly installed a bayonet on a Type 38 rifle, and he looked at the little devil angrily.

A Czech light machine gun shooter was just about to pull the trigger, but a little devil had already rushed over with a bayonet, and the sharp bayonet stabbed directly into the chest of the light machine gun shooter.

The little devil had already begun to rush into the position, and Zhang Wenbin, with hundreds of officers and soldiers, began to engage in a white-knives battle with the little devil.

The sound of metal clashing continued to sound, and the two sides began to fight.

"Kill." The follow-up troops quickly entered the battlefield, and the officers and soldiers on both sides kept brandishing bayonets, they just wanted to kill each other completely.

The sappers were also quickly engaged in the battle, as the anti-tank trenches were completely destroyed by the bombing of Japanese aircraft, and in some places the tanks were now allowed to pass.

"The 201st Division, the 4th Division of Honor, quickly launched an attack, and the artillery units extended their fire back to hit the Japanese artillery units." When Zhao Lerong saw this, he immediately began to give orders.

Yin Jinshan, commander of the Provisional Ninth Army, personally began to attack with the Fifth Armored Regiment, while Fang Chaoqun, commander of the 201st Division, and Jiang Quan, deputy commander of the division, personally commanded the first armored battalion and the second armored battalion to attack.

Artillery brigades, armored artillery regiments, more than a hundred large-caliber guns began to shoot, and the Japanese aviation, which had not withdrawn, began to strafe at low altitudes.

Zhao Lerong was the first to be attacked by the Japanese air force, and a string of bullets hit Zhao Lerong, and the guards around him immediately pushed Zhao Lerong aside.

The guard was hit by a bullet and passed on the spot, and Zhao Lerong also fell in a pool of blood.

"Chief of Staff." Xie Hui saw that Zhao Lerong was covered in blood, and he shouted in panic.

More than a dozen guards quickly sent Zhao Lerong to the hospital, and the doctor hurriedly rescued Zhao Lerong.

The front-line battle continued, the roar of tanks sounded, and the tanks attacked quickly, followed by the armored infantry regiment, the mechanized infantry regiment, and the Honorable Ninth Regiment, and tens of thousands of troops began to charge towards the Japanese position.

"Da-da-da-da." More than a dozen devil soldiers who wanted to get close to the tank were directly beaten into a sieve by the tank machine guns, and the four infantry brigades under the command of the commander of the 107th Brigade, Major General Nishiyama Fukutaro, quickly began to fall into the encirclement of the armored troops.

Seeing this scene, Fukutaro Nishiyama began to show a frightened expression on his face, and he ordered the artillery unit to immediately bombard, and this time the devil artillery completely carried out artillery bombardment without distinguishing between friend and foe.

Shells hit one shell after another, and the morale of both China and Japan was lost.

"The 5th Armored Regiment, the Armored Infantry Regiment quickly advanced deep into the Japanese position, the 8th Regiment of Honor, the 9th Regiment of Honor, and the Mechanized Infantry Regiment to solve the Japanese troops. At the same time, contact the rear artillery units and let them suppress the Japanese artillery units. Yin Jinshan immediately gave an order and said.

Tank units and infantry in armored vehicles began to advance closer to the Japanese positions in depth, while the rest of the troops surrounded and annihilated the Japanese troops in their place.

The Honor 8th Regiment suffered heavy casualties, and they were already a little difficult to deal with in the face of the four Japanese infantry brigades, but with the arrival of reinforcements, the little devils began to be at a comprehensive disadvantage.

One by one, the little devils began to fall to the ground, and it was impossible for them to evacuate at this time.

The squad platoon commander with the submachine gun kept pulling the trigger, and many devil soldiers were directly beaten into a sieve by the bullets of the submachine gun. (To be continued.) )
