305 moths to the fire
In a battlefield where bullets can hit you everywhere, it takes a lot of courage to dare to carry a clear flag. It is precisely because www.biquge.info need for this unparalleled courage that it is definitely an "inspiring" feat to set up a banner on the battlefield.
When the soldiers of the Ming Empire held up a huge flag of the Ming Empire near the commanding heights of the Japanese army, the soldiers of the Ming Army, who were still climbing to the commanding heights under Japanese artillery fire, immediately let out a tsunami-like cheer.
"Long live the Ming Empire!" "Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" Such calls came and went, and with such sounds, the waves of attacks by the soldiers of the Ming Empire became even more frenzied, and also made the enemy soldiers who were still holding on to the Japanese positions feel unprecedented pressure.
The Ming soldiers were not afraid of death's crazy attack, so that the Japanese army had just replenished the position of the three thousand tiger Ben did not play its due role at all, just when all the Japanese officers thought that they were in the hands of victory, the Ming Empire used an attack to take advantage of the opportunity of the Japanese army's unstable foothold, and drove the Japanese troops who had just entered the position to fight out of their trenches and bunkers.
"Ahh I'm fighting with you! A Japanese soldier shouted at the Ming soldiers in the trench with a bayonet, but when he shouted, in the trench behind him, the other accomplices had been knocked to the ground by the Ming soldiers. Before the last stubborn Japanese soldier could exert his strength, he was stabbed in half with several bayonets.
When the bayonets were drawn from his thin body, the Japanese soldier, who was still spitting blood and still insulting, finally collapsed, convulsed and died in the cold trenches, never to make a sound again. The Ming soldiers who occupied the trenches did not look at him and rushed directly to the Japanese defense line farther away.
Due to frequent fighting and artillery bombardment, the original rolling barbed wire fence has now been shattered, and the originally strong Japanese trenches have become dilapidated under the destruction of artillery shells. Craters formed by falling shells can be encountered on the ground at any time, and some damaged areas closer to the trenches are caused by the Lei Gong 1 dive bomber.
"Shoot! Shoot! For the sake of the Great Japanese Empire! In a hidden machine-gun bunker, the Japanese commander brandished his katana and desperately encouraged the gunners around him to continue to hold his position. After all, there were thick sandbags and wooden bunkers, and it was much safer than the exposed trenches on the side.
The machine gun shooter beside him was also quite brave, controlling the machine gun and focusing on it, firing fiercely at the flank of the Ming attacking force in the distance, completely ignoring the increasing number of bullets around the pillbox where he was. Now the Japanese army has no time to cover each other's crossfire, and can only rely on some sections of the position that still insist on fighting, like suicide to prevent the Ming army from continuing to attack.
"Ammunition! Get the ammo here! Looking at the little heavy machine gun ammunition left at his feet, the soldier in charge of loading shouted loudly. He shouted, but the movements of his hands did not slow down, and the movements were neat and clean to replenish the ammunition of the machine gun on the side.
At this moment, a sudden attack hit this machine-gun bunker. The 20 mm caliber machine gun strafing of the Ming army fell densely on this machine gun pillbox, and the warheads that penetrated the bunker flew everywhere in the bunker, hitting the Japanese soldiers inside, splashing a gray smoke.
The rampage of the bullet hit the shooter who was still shooting the Ming soldiers just now, and the snowy command knife in the hand of the Japanese officer also fell to the ground and no one cared. The few remaining Japanese soldiers in the bunker also fell down indiscriminately, and the entire bunker fell silent in an instant.
A Japanese soldier at the edge of the trench quickly bent down and rushed into the bunker where white smoke was still emitting, shouting loudly, calling the name of his commander. But all he saw was a corpse on the ground, and a heavy machine gun that had been distorted by a shell. The corpses on the ground were all familiar faces, and the blood on the face was still steaming, and the Japanese soldier staggered in fright, and then quickly retreated with his weapon.
When he retracted his gaze from the destroyed bunker in horror, another Japanese soldier behind him was hit in the head by a bullet, and fell straight down, smashing on the bottom of the trench with a "bang", which frightened the Japanese soldier to turn back, bow down in shock, and shrink his neck.
Didn't the reinforcements just arrive? Why is it still so difficult on his side, why is the Ming army's attack not stopped, but has achieved more results? The Japanese soldier didn't understand what was happening in front of him, and in fact he didn't need to figure it out.
A grenade tumbled down in the trench, and the explosion then turned the Japanese soldier into a corpse - shrapnel hit his body, and the density of the distance turned him into a blood gourd.
Why did the reinforcements arrive, but their positions are still lost? Kazuhiro Ozawa, who was standing in the anticline headquarters, was also thinking about this problem at this moment, but compared to those grassroots officers and soldiers, he quickly figured out the key to the problem. Because the new troops did not carry any heavy weapons, and the Ming army at this moment put in new tanks that disable the Type 91 anti-tank guns.
There was a lack of defensive weapons against the tank in the defensive positions, and neither light nor heavy machine guns nor the flesh and blood of the soldiers could stop the new tank from advancing. The deeper reason is actually very easy to understand, passive defense will inevitably be broken through one day, and a truly solid defense line should not only have defensive soldiers, but also have the power to counterattack.
With defense alone, it is impossible to suppress the opponent's fierce attacks again and again. In ancient times, to defend the city wall, it was also necessary to deploy counterattack troops inside the city, or garrison forces outside the city to counterattack the enemy army at the right time, which was a complete defense plan.
Similarly, on the defense line of the Yalu River, the Japanese army also prepared the strength and plan for a counterattack, but because it underestimated the blocking ability of the Ming army, it deployed farther, and finally failed to break into the battlefield in the first time and change the force situation of both sides.
Although some Japanese reinforcements arrived on the battlefield, these troops did not enter as a counterattack force, but as defensive forces to fill the Japanese lines. When the fixed permanent fortifications that the Japanese army relied on to entangle with the Ming army were exhausted, these new reinforcements could not prevent the Ming army, which had an absolute advantage in armored forces, from destroying the city.
Thinking about this, Ozawa Kazuhiro smiled bitterly and shook his head. His 17th Division had not completed its intended task, the defensive line was now crumbling, the Ming army was about to occupy the commanding heights, and the anti-slope position would not play a role - this battle was lost by him, and it was lost very completely.
"Long live the Ming Empire! Long live His Majesty the Emperor! On the distant position, there was a tsunami-like shout of Ming soldiers, and this sudden sound made all the officers in the headquarters of the 17th Division feel uneasy. Kazuhiro Ozawa frowned, then leaned back on the observation hole and picked up his telescope.
Just on the commanding heights in the distance, a royal flag of the Ming Empire had been erected, and the soldiers of the Ming army were cheering at the flag, which also caused the morale of the remaining Japanese troops on the position to collapse quickly.
"What about the defenders on the high ground? How can there be a banner of the Ming army on the commanding heights? Bastard! Idiot! Kazuhiro Ozawa threw the telescope he was holding directly at his feet, and the expensive precision optical equipment was deformed with a thud, and the lens was shattered.
"Impossible! Aren't there still several machine-gun bunkers and four or five trench lines over there? How could it be lost so quickly? The staff officer of the 17th Division couldn't believe Ozawa's statement, so he leaned over to the observation hole to take a look, and immediately retreated with a pale face.
"Immediately! Take it back! Otherwise, we're all done! "Of course, Ozawa Kazuhiro knows what the consequences of losing the commanding heights are, the tanks of the Ming army rushed down the slope, and his remaining positions would be smashed by the opponent within an hour, before dark, the tanks and infantry of the Ming army could completely break through the Japanese defense line, and the defense line of the Yalu River could be said to be almost finished.
In some places on the anticline, the remaining troops of the 17th Division are the precious essence, if the ordinary soldiers on the position can barely be replenished, then the remaining departments, each loss is enough to make people feel distressed for half a day.
There is a field hospital of the Japanese 17th Division, an artillery position directly under the division, a civilian personnel of the division and regiment, pack horses for logistics supplies, and horse-drawn carriages for heavy loads. Compared with manpower, these cannons, radio stations, vehicles, generators, and even ammunition and food are even lacking in Japan.
"Your Excellency, General! I'll personally lead someone to fight back! Even if you die there, you must regain the commanding heights and win victory for the Japanese Empire and His Majesty the Emperor! The chief of staff pressed one hand on the handle of the command knife, gritted his teeth and said word by word with a hideous face.
Then, without waiting for Kazuhiro Ozawa to speak, he turned around and went out with some officers in the headquarters. On the anticline, the Japanese army is constantly routing, and they are getting farther and farther away from the royal flag of the Ming Empire, all of which seems to have a special meaning in the eyes of Ozawa Kazuhiro.
He seems to be getting farther and farther away from victory...... The Ming army was able to drive the Japanese troops stationed in their positions out of the trenches and pillboxes, how could they now be defeated by the counterattacking Japanese troops? Although the efforts of the chief of staff can be said to be a moth to a fire, but at this time, Ozawa Kazuhiro can't even say the words to stop the other party from sending him to death.
