Zhang Xuewu, who was standing under the artillery mirror, looked at the soldiers who were struggling to dig individual bunkers and felt a little funny, how can a short sapper shovel dig into frozen soil as hard as rocks? The fortifications of the side ridge of Majiagou used tens of thousands of migrant workers, and it took more than ten days to complete the three lines of defense, so that the last line of defense has only been half completed so far, and the soldiers of the army want to dig individual bunkers with sapper shovels, and then connect the bunkers into talking trenches to advance and extend into the starting position of the attack, I am afraid that the plan can only be a luxury, and my whimsical surname is undoubtedly revealed!

The distance of 300 meters is the best effective range of the Maxine heavy machine gun, but in order to save ammunition, Zhao Xinyu only selected a group of veterans with particularly excellent marksmanship to condescendingly kill and injure individual soldiers of the Yue army with cold guns.

With each other's undulating cold guns, from time to time there are soldiers lying on the ground are hit, in the severe cold of more than 30 degrees below zero, the blood flowing out will soon take away the heat of the body, struggle and scream and finally to helpless moans, these soldiers who were still burning and looting everywhere a few days ago began to know what it was to be afraid!

When they ** women and kill them, in order to cover up their crimes, in order to get women to vent their long-accumulated animal desires, often the whole village is surrounded in the name of helping the anti-Manchu army, especially in the cold weather, many people are frostbitten, I don't know when the army began to use lactating women's milk and stir-fry people's hearts, human liver anti-freezing secret recipes, at the beginning it was only a few people quietly trying.

With the collapse of the anti-Manchu army in Rehe, the arrogant officers and soldiers lost the last control, before the attack on Rehe, the Kwantung Army Command had issued a relevant guidance document, requiring the troops to eliminate the unfavorable factors affecting public security in the future after fighting, this unfavorable factor refers to the Chinese with a secondary school education or above, in order to cooperate with the policy of Manchukuo's foolish people, the Kwantung Army has long felt the great threat brought by the revival of the Chinese national consciousness, in order to minimize the degree of this threat, Taking advantage of the war, it was imperative to carry out a thorough clean-up of Rehe, so the hearts and minds of the schoolgirls became a scarce material that could only be enjoyed by the officers.

Now these two-legged beasts finally realized what it was to be frightened, and they almost stuck their heads into the pit, and stuck their bodies to the ground, turning a deaf ear to the screams of their comrades who had been shot, because the army found that they often had to take a few more lives in order to save a wounded.

Enbe and Ichiro were expressionless in watching their soldiers being slaughtered by the other party, and in the whole process, Enbe and Ichiro never said anything except for sending additional troops, as a member of the noble council with the title of baron, Major General Enbe and Ichiro, humble soldiers are like ammunition and materials, they are all consumables, and what a qualified commander can do is to calmly face the casualty figures of his subordinates, and what Enbe and Ichiro worship is a general like Nogi Noshinori who can exert the soul of the Yamato army to the limit!

Standing behind Kazuichiro Enbe, Ozhi Osa hesitated for a moment and whispered, "Your Excellency Brigade Commander, I think it is necessary to dispatch Ono-kun's tank brigade and cover the excavation of the 16th Infantry Wing with artillery fire. ”

Enbe Kazuichiro frowned unhappily, and said without replying: "I think this is a completely unnecessary waste, and your 16th Infantry Wing is doing a good job." ”

Soon, although the excavation progress of the Yue army was unusually slow, the follow-up army piled up the corpses of the previous dead soldiers into bunkers and began to use blasting to dig quickly.

The tactics changed by the army, Zhang Xuewu looked at Maitlin beside him and said: "My tenacity and persistence are their merits, I personally like them very much This kind of surname that does not hit the south wall and does not look back, even if the head is broken and the blood flows, otherwise where will we have the opportunity to kill and injure them in large quantities?" ”

Just when the Yue army invested follow-up troops and began to speed up the excavation of the starting position of the attack, Zhao Xinyu ordered the heavy mortar company of the regiment to fire half a base of shells at the predetermined coordinates, so that Yue himself was more diligent.

The unique firing sound of the mortar and the concealed firing position caused the shrapnel baptism and the howling of the wolf to suffer heavy losses, and Kazuichiro Yuanbe, who had been preparing to wait for the forward firepower of the Chinese defenders to be exposed to carry out effective artillery bombardment, finally couldn't bear it, and ordered the two field artillery brigades belonging to the 8th Brigade to start responding to the artillery bombardment of the defenders' positions.

For a time, the front of the 3rd Regiment was covered by bursts of artillery fire, the rising ice and snow were sandwiched with steaming black soil, shrapnel was flying wantonly in the air, and the heavy mortar company of the 3rd Regiment also accelerated rapid fire after transferring positions, and for a time the positions of both sides exploded and flashed!

Zhang Xuewu observed the entire shelling process, and he found that the tactical literacy of the soldiers of the Yue Army was indeed very high, and during the whole process of the shelling, he could constantly see the soldiers lying on the ground being blown off the ground, and their torn clothes, limbs, and even steel helmets and rifles flew high, but the soldiers of the Yue Army were never seen running around in panic.

Soon, the artillery group of the Yue army, which was blindly suppressing firepower, stopped shelling, and the Yue army continued its civil engineering work in the freezing and snowy weather staring at the bitter cold, completely with a steady and steady attitude.

Compared with the steady and steady attack of the 8th Brigade, the 27th Brigade of the 14th Division was mainly attacking the headquarters of Xu Guohui of the 1st Regiment stationed in Laohugou, while the 28th Brigade attacked the headquarters of Wang Chuang of the 2nd Regiment stationed at Seng Guanfeng, forming an overall encirclement of Chengde.

Matsuki Naoliang is different from Hirose Shousuke, at the end of 1898 graduated with honors from the 10th Infantry Section of the Army Non-commissioned Officer School, he is no longer young, he has held important positions in the army with his academic qualifications and the background of the Changzhou Domain, and he also took the 14th Division to aid the hard-fought Kanazawa 9th Division during the 128 Shanghai Incident, but due to the dispute between the ruling faction and the imperial faction, Matsuki Naoliang is the last lieutenant general from Yamaguchi Prefecture in the current army. I am afraid that this battle of Rehe is an opportunity given by the military department on the basis of his hard work in the battle of Shanghai, and this is also the last chance for Matsuki Naoliang to be promoted to a general, otherwise he will be transferred to the reserve in the second half of next year at the latest.

Therefore, at the beginning, Matsuki Naoliang spread out the two brigades along the line, and the first breakthrough of Chengde was extremely important to Matsuki Naoliang.

The 27th Brigade, under the command of Brigade Commander Major General Pingsong Yingying, directly took the brigade as a unit to launch four successive waves of attacks against the main position of the First Regiment Xu Guohui's unit stationed in Laohugou.

Xu Guohui immediately organized a combat defense artillery company deployed at the front to carry out destruction shooting, and each regiment of the newly formed first division had a company of six Gem 37 mm caliber 42 times the body of the Gremg, a battle defense gun produced in Sweden, and Zhang Xuewu could be said to be very familiar with this kind of battle defense artillery, and the Gem battle defense gun was an early model of the famous PAK35/36 37 mm German battle defense gun authorized by foreign countries.

Hearing that the army had put into a chariot attack in Laohugou, Xu Guohui ordered the anti-artillery company to counterattack, and soon after asked the two mechanized companies of the division to counterattack, Zhang Xuewu suddenly realized that the situation was not good!
