Chapter 439: The Fall of the 33rd Division (6)

The 10 minutes of shelling by the mountain artillery brigade poured out more than 500 shells, and the violent explosion overturned all the positions of the squadron. Although the positions of the squadron were very characteristic and advanced, much more advanced than the most advanced fortifications that Akiyama had ever seen, Akiyama did not think that the Chinese infantry battalion could survive such a huge artillery bombardment, maybe 100 out of more than 500 soldiers would survive it was good, and they were all scarred and seriously wounded.

As soon as the artillery stopped, Akiyama couldn't wait to order the troops to launch a group charge towards the position of the squadron, and a large group of Japanese troops quickly rushed towards the position of the squadron.

"500 meters"

"400 meters"

"300 meters"

"Two hundred meters"

"One Hundred Meters"

"Fifty meters"

The Chinese position was still quiet, not only did the squadron fight back, but not even the barrel of a rifle stretched out, could it be said that all the Chinese troops had been blown up? The commander of the infantry group in charge of the attack was speculating maliciously while ordering his troops to continue the charge.

The situation was still the same until the Japanese army had approached the Chinese position less than 20 meters away, and at this time, the captain of the Japanese army noticed something strange, and he rushed to the position where the squadron was stationed first. As he thought, in fact, the squadron had already fled, and the hundreds of shells of the Imperial Army just now were actually unnecessary.

After hearing the news from the forward position, Akiyama Tadaichi was extremely angry and secretly scolded the ** team for being cunning. However, Akiyama Tadaichi also knew that he didn't have time to be angry with this small Chinese force now, if the three imperial infantry squadrons in front of him were annihilated by the squadron, then even if he could annihilate all the infantry battalions just now, he would not be able to make up for his mistakes. Therefore, while he sent more than a dozen scout teams along the road to reconnoiter the movements of the squadron, he ordered the troops to rush to the Huajialing battlefield immediately.

Tadaichi Akiyama came at the right time. When they arrived at Huajialing, the three infantry squadrons of the Japanese army had been almost consumed, and even the infantry brigade of the 40th Division of the Japanese Army, which arrived later, had suffered more than half of the casualties.

But even so, Takahashi Ichiro and the others are about to be unable to hold on, the only remaining seven or eight hundred devils are surrounded on a hill with a radius of less than two hundred meters, the wounded are not treated, and there is not much left of the bullet Y-O, looking at the squadron that is still sharp in attack, Takahashi has no mood to even complain about the captain who blames him, Takahashi has a premonition that today may be the time for his own death, and now he regrets why he was so timid before, even if he lived diligently, But he still can't escape the fate of being killed by the Shina army, and it is not as good as the death of those happy guys in China. If he also slaughtered the Shina people as much as they did, and robbed them of their NV wealth, maybe he could leave Michiko and his mother a fortune enough to live the rest of their lives after death.

But because of his cowardice and timidity, he only accumulated more than 500 silver dollars in the past three years in China, although more than 500 silver dollars at this time is also a lot of wealth, but when converted into more than 100 dollars, it is really not enough for his family to live for a few years, and Takahashi Ichiro really regretted it at this time. Regret that you didn't create more sin and killings in China, and regret that you didn't plunder more wealth.

Just as Takahashi was thinking about it, he heard a low whine falling from the sky, and then a huge fire broke out on the opposite Zhina position, and Takahashi saw with his own eyes that the Type 92 heavy machine gun equipped in the Tǐng Shina unit was blasted into the sky by a huge explosion along with the extremely fierce Shina machine gunner who left a deep impression on Takahashi and others, and was dismembered in the sky.

As a veteran with a lot of combat experience, how could Takahashi Ichiro not know what this meant, Takahashi shouted with some jī: "The plane is the plane of the empire, Amaterasu did not abandon us, long live the Great Japanese Empire, Long live His Majesty the Emperor"

The arrival of the Japanese aviation unit greatly boosted the fighting spirit of the Japanese army, and almost at the same time, the remaining hundreds of Japanese troops all shouted loudly: "Long live the Great Japanese Empire, Long live His Majesty the Emperor", the manic Japanese army carried out a very strong counterattack under the organization of its only remaining supreme commander, Captain Takahashi Ichiro, and the attacking squadron caused certain casualties, pushed the position forward by more than 100 meters, and expanded the living space.

At the same time, Captain Takahashi Ichiro also received a telegram from the division headquarters, saying that the reinforcements had entered the Huajialing area and were now attacking the town of Huajialing, and it was expected that they would arrive at the battlefield in ten minutes.

After reading the telegram sent by the division headquarters, Captain Takahashi Ichiro was overjoyed, and the strength of the three infantry squadrons of the entire infantry brigade was less than 800 people left so far, which was less than three hours.

But fortunately, now the reinforcements have arrived in Huajialing Town, and Huajialing Town is only two or three kilometers away from here, and the cavalry can arrive with a charge, and the infantry can arrive in ten minutes at most.

But the reality is often so unpredictable that it is difficult to accept, and just when Takahashi Ichiro thought that he didn't have to bury the thousands of dead imperial soldiers today, he didn't realize that death was rapidly approaching them. I saw that the squadron on the opposite side retreated nearly a hundred meters, and then used machine guns to organize a simple air defense position, although because they were all ordinary machine guns, they could not completely restrain the empire's aviation regiment, but the blue sky warriors of the empire did not dare to pull the fighters down too much, so as not to be attacked. As a result, the falling bombs are greatly inaccurate.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the ** team launched more than a dozen m-n caliber strange artillery, in Takahashi Ichiro's surprised eyes, these extremely rough looking artillery quickly fired, only to see a huge bomb Y-O package flying towards their position with lightning speed.

“… Rumble... Rumble... Boom" A violent explosion sounded around Takahashi Ichiro, and although his own guards crushed him to death, Captain Takahashi Ichiro knew that he had been seriously injured, and the huge explosion had severely damaged his internal organs.

Captain Takahashi Ichiro laboriously pushed away the guards who were completely dead on his body, and then coughed "cough cough", only to see a stream of red blood quickly flow from the corner of Takahashi Ichiro's mouth. Easing the feeling of suffocation in his mouth, Takahashi Ichiro looked around, and then shouted loudly: "Get up quickly, the people of Shina are coming up, and we must hold out until reinforcements arrive"

Except for more than 40 soldiers who survived due to angles or other reasons, more than 700 soldiers were either directly crushed or seriously wounded, and almost all of the units of Nuoda lost their combat effectiveness in the first round of artillery bombardment of the squadron.

Captain Takahashi Ichiro was shocked in his heart, secretly surprised when the Chinese had such a huge lethal artillery, and Captain Takahashi Ichiro, who had participated in the joint exercises of the army and navy, estimated that the caliber of the artillery used by the team was at least 300mm based on the power of the shell explosion just now, and the number should be about 12m-n to 15m-n.
