This is the tofu slag project

In the anticipation of the East China Field Army and the panic of the Japanese army, the night finally slowly descended on the sky over the city of Wuhan, which had been shrouded in artillery fire for several days.

As night approached, several Japanese planes that served as patrol cover in the sky also slowly disappeared over the battlefield. The initiative of the entire battlefield, with the departure of the Japanese aircraft, also fell into the hands of the East China Field Army...

As soon as the sky darkened, the main forces of the East China Field Army, which had rested in the rear for a whole day, rushed to their own positions along the communication trenches extending in all directions, pushing all kinds of artillery and light and heavy machine guns under the command of their respective commanders.

Of course, in the front enemy headquarters of the Sixth Corps, which was located at the rear of the position, Commander Chen Geng and others were also excitedly gathered in front of a huge combat sand table to discuss the specific combat plans of each combat unit tonight.

Chief of Staff Han Liancheng was the first to speak: "Commander, this is the latest information that has just been sent from the front. Since the Japanese suffered heavy losses in several attacks in the morning, they have not launched a single attack. Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the Japanese troops on the opposite side were actually humble this afternoon, and spent the whole afternoon building fortifications on their own positions....After reconnaissance, it was found that the fortifications that the Japanese troops were building were basically no different from the trench groups under our feet. However, due to the lack of troops and raw materials, their trenches are only waist-deep and can only accommodate one person in width, and of course, these trenches are not reinforced with logs..."

"Hehe, when I saw the little devil in front of me, I suddenly thought of what happened when we fought guerrilla warfare with the little devil on Taihang Mountain..."

"Commander, what do you mean is that the little devil can learn the appearance just like the guerrilla warfare of our army back then, but he will never learn the essence of this tactic..." Opening.

"Yes... You'll see. I'll definitely let the little devils know about tonight's attack. They painted the scoop from the gourd. In front of my East China Field Army, I am not vulnerable at all..."Chen Geng said confidently.

The forward position of the East China Field Army. Because it was too close to the front-line positions of the Japanese army. During the whole day of bombing, this trench became the only trench in the entire trench group that was not bombed. At this moment, on the position stretching for several kilometers, an infantry regiment and more than 2,000 elites of the East China Field Army were quietly squatting in the trench like a hungry wolf ready to attack. Waiting for the order to attack ...

The second trench, during the daytime bombardment, was cared for by quite a few bombs. However, the main body of the trench, which was supported by a large number of logs, did not change in any way. After almost half an hour of repairs by the soldiers, the entire trench was once again restored to its pre-war scene...

"What are you still doing, all the infantry, immediately retreat to the third trench. Artillerymen, immediately push up both infantry guns and mortars. In addition, I also loaded dozens of thunderbolts that the sappers had just driven out during the day. Half an hour later, let the little devils taste our new weapons..."As soon as the trench was repaired, the voice of a commander was remembered. Immediately afterwards, infantry guns, mountain guns, mortars, and thunderbolts with a caliber of up to one meter modified with gasoline drums were installed in their own gun positions for the first time under the handling of the soldiers. Of course, shells and explosives packets that were wiped almost reflective were also brought to the position one after another......

"Division commander, the time for the general offensive has come...."At the forward position, the division chief of staff said to the division commander with a solemn face beside him. ..., "How are the artillery in the back prepared...."Facing the reminder of the chief of staff, the division commander with a solemn face, a pair of eyes did not leave the silent Japanese position in front of him, but only asked in a deep voice.

"All artillery clusters, all ready, just waiting for your order ...."

Seeing the division commander in front of him, with a solemn expression, there was still no change in expression, and the chief of staff continued to speak.

"Division commander, are you worried that the attack will fail in a while..."

"Yes...."For his old partner, the division commander did not hide anything, and replied with a worried face.

"The position of the little devils, compared to us, although a little different. However, on the whole, it is still much the same. Today's daytime battle, I'm sure you've seen it. The little devils have absolute air superiority, and they all suffer in the face of such trenches, not to mention our army, which only has an artillery superiority ...

"Commander, according to my thoughts, our worries are unnecessary. We have followed the commander for so long, when have we ever suffered defeat. The commander made it clear in his order that there will be absolutely no accidents in tonight's attack, and let us fight with confidence in accordance with the original battle plan. I believe in the commander...."After a short period of contemplation, the Chief of Staff said with a confident expression.

"Okay, since that's the case, then let's fight with confidence. Pass my order, all artillerymen, open fire at once. Target Japanese trench cluster, shelling time, half an hour...."After a long sigh of relief, the division commander ordered in a deep voice.

"Yes, Commander..."

"Woooooooooo......oo Boom boom boom..."The order was given, and the artillery clusters hidden behind the positions, whether large-caliber howitzers, cannons, or ordinary field artillery, began to let out bursts of roars. Under the control of a group of shirtless gunners, with their fastest firing speed, they quickly poured powerful shells into the Japanese trenches as if they didn't need money.

Of course, these artillery pieces are several kilometers away from the forward positions after all, and they cannot give people the most intuitive visual impact. At the same time that the large-caliber artillery in the rear began to exert its might, all kinds of mountain artillery, infantry artillery, mortars, thunderstorms, and even grenadiers that could be called invisible in the second trench were also added to this unprecedented artillery bombardment at the first time.

In the trench group of the Japanese army, hidden everywhere, almost the entire brigade of mortars, grenadiers, light and heavy machine guns and other nearly 1,000 technical arms were assembled in the trenches. Hearing the sudden sound of shelling in the sky, he immediately followed the orders of his superiors and moved to the nearest anti-artillery hole.

However, just as everyone was transferring, a huge reality was placed in front of them. In the face of a trench that only allowed one person to pass through, it was almost impossible for these devil soldiers with mortars and light and heavy machine guns on their shoulders to retreat in just a few seconds.

So, when the first round of hundreds of shells of various calibers of the East China Field Army came to them. Less than one-fifth of the nearly 1,000 technical troops, including their weapons, were withdrawn into the artillery holes. As for the rest of the personnel and equipment, there was no surprise, all of them were shrouded in artillery fire......

Of course, being shrouded in artillery fire is not the most important thing. After all, these people are in the trenches, and as long as they lie in the trenches, there is still hope of escaping. However, as the shelling continued, one large-caliber shell after another began to fall into these civil fortifications, and the last and only hope of the Japanese army was dashed.

More than 5,000 soldiers, in just one afternoon, can dig out the specific tendencies of the entire trench cluster, which is already very good, not to mention the reinforcement of these pure civil trenches. Of course, even if the Japanese wanted to strengthen the trenches, they would not be able to find even a few logs to strengthen the fortifications. ..., a group of trenches that had not been reinforced in any way, and not even a single log could be seen. In the face of shells weighing tens of kilograms, or even dozens of kilograms of pure explosives, how long can it last?

The entire shelling did not surprise Commander Chen Geng's expectations. In less than five minutes, the trenches that the Japanese army had worked so hard to build in the afternoon began to collapse. Of course, when the trench collapsed, the Japanese soldiers lying in the trench undoubtedly became the most direct victims, buried alive in the trench.

With the precedent of the collapse of the first trenches, the remaining trenches, like a queue, were razed to the ground one after the other by the explosion of shells ... In less than twenty minutes, there was a huge cluster of trenches, except for one or two trenches still standing alone. The remaining trenches, all of which were blown to the ground ....

Seeing the scene in front of him, if you use the words of Commander-in-Chief Liu Hua, these trenches, in later generations, are typical tofu scum projects....

However, this incident, in the eyes of the Japanese army, was more heart-wrenching than cutting meat.

Because, the shelling just now not only caused him to lose nearly 1,000 technical troops, but also almost all light and heavy machine guns and mortars of the entire brigade. What's more, after the trench group is razed to the ground by artillery fire, in the next battle, his subordinates will face the elite East China Field Army who have no position to use, lying in the ruins...

Thinking of this, the face of the brigade commander could no longer see the pre-war self-confidence, but showed a trace of despair ....

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, how can this be... How could our trenches be....the people of China, how could the trenches of the people of China be intact, and why is that? The chief of staff exclaimed with a puzzled expression.

"Why, it's simple. We don't have that many troops to build trenches and fortify trenches. What's more, we don't have enough raw materials. Don't you see that directly behind the East China Field Army is a large area of forest..."The brigade commander, who clearly knew the specific reason, glanced at the chief of staff beside him angrily. After that, he fell into deep contemplation and began to think about the next combat operations of the troops......

Ask for subscriptions, ask for collections, ask for monthly passes, ask for recommendation tickets, ask for rewards......
