The artillery fire was fiercely bombarded on the positions of the Fourth Division, and the dust of the explosion rose to the sky, and there was loess everywhere at a glance.

"Damn little devil, it's no fun when it blows up. We just blew them up for less than half an hour, and they're almost bombarding us for an hour! Dog-god, these devils are really vindictive! The commander of the fourth division spit out the dirt in his mouth and complained loudly.

"Division commander, what about our artillery fire? Why don't you bombard them? was blown up by the little devil for an hour, don't you let them taste our awesomeness? An officer asked indignantly.

"You know a fart, the commander doesn't let the artillery and the devil bombard, the purpose is to increase the arrogance of the little devil, this is to lure the enemy, you know?" The commander of the fourth division scolded with a smile.

"If you don't fight back after being bombed, let the devil be proud, what is this called luring the enemy? Is it obvious that you are beaten! Another officer asked, puzzled.

The shells whistled and fell, and just a short distance from them blew up a large area of dirt, and the trenches were blown open a large gap.

The commander of the fourth division kept spitting out the loess in his mouth, and said: "This is called showing weakness, the art of war handed down by our ancestors." You know how to fight, and we are also very knowledgeable in fighting. I heard that Xi'an is going to open an army university, and when it is opened, you had better go to school. It's hard to talk to you! ”

"Army University?" Several officers had anticipation in their eyes: "Sounds amazing." ”

"Of course, I heard that our chief of staff is going to write a tutorial, and we will invite many foreign instructors. If you can go there, the future will definitely be limitless! The commander of the fourth division said with a smile.

"The devil's artillery fire is going to stop, the devil's artillery fire is going to stop"

Suddenly there was a shout from the trench, one after the other, and it tumbled along the trench.

The commander of the fourth division raised his head from the bomb crater, and the little devil's artillery fire was really a lot.

He spat fiercely, looked at the bombed trench and scolded: "Dog-day devil, half of the trenches we worked so hard to dig have blown them up." Is the artillery still fierce? I just don't know if their soldiers are so fierce! ”

Everyone knows that the tactics of the little devil are that the artillery blows up the infantry attack, and the infantry continues to bomb the artillery after the attack. Repeatedly, endlessly, as if there was never a head.

At this moment, the commander of the 79th Brigade, who had already served as the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army on the Japanese side, said angrily: "All of them launched an attack and captured the position of the Chinese people!" ”

For a while, the sound of shouting and killing filled the land, and tens of thousands of Japanese troops spread a line, like a yellow torrent rolling in the direction of the fourth division.

The earth shook slightly, and the devils roared arrogantly, frantically rushing towards the Fourth Division.

The officers and men of the Fourth Division had already rushed out of the bomb crater, lying on the half-lower trenches, coldly waiting for the Japanese to attack.

When the two sides were close to five hundred meters, the positions of the 4th Division opened fire first. The general-purpose machine gun roared and spewed out a long series of flames, and the hot bullets converged into a barrage at a distance of five hundred meters, knocking down the impacting devils one by one.

But this situation only lasted two minutes, and in the team of the devils, the devils carrying the Type 43 heavy machine gun had already set up the machine gun. The roaring machine guns spat out more powerful bullets, and a rain of bullets frantically sprinkled on the position of the Fourth Division.

Suddenly, two barrages staggered through the air, and they collided together and sparked dazzling sparks.

The Japanese army's new Type 43 heavy machine gun highlights its power at this moment, after all, this gun is Geng Jun M60 general-purpose machine gun modification, although it is a castrated version, but the power is still quite terrifying. After a few minutes of the exchange of fire, the original heavy gunfire in the position of the Fourth Division was suppressed alive.

A long line of bullets hit the position, and if the commander of the fourth division hadn't dodged quickly, he would have almost been swept away by the rain of bullets.

Leaning in the trenches, he scolded loudly: "Are the little devils all beaten with chicken blood?" Did even the gun get beaten with chicken blood? Why is it so fierce all of a sudden? ”

"Division commander, the devil is hitting under the cover of firepower!" An officer yelled.

The commander of the fourth division had to lie down in the trench again and look ahead in the rain of bullets. I saw that the devils were crawling in a high posture under the cover of heavy machine guns, and the speed was very fast, and they had approached the range of 300 meters.

"Milk-milk, is it awesome to have a new weapon?" The commander of the fourth division took a sip, his troops were equipped with grenades and flamethrowers, as long as he waited for the devil to get close to a hundred meters, he would kill as many as he could.

But he held back and did not give the order for the soldiers to prepare. Huang Youde gave him the task of making the Japanese army mistakenly think that they couldn't beat the devils, and if they used flamethrowers, the devils' shells would have to bombard later, and they wouldn't be able to run away if they wanted to.

"Dog-day, wait for the little devils to reach a hundred meters, greet them with a grenade!" The commander of the fourth division endured this breath fiercely and shouted loudly.

The power of the Type 43 heavy machine gun was so strong that it suppressed half of the firepower of the fourth division. Whether it is long-range strafing or power, it is a level higher than the existing heavy machine guns of the PLA.

The devil's infantry took advantage of the cover of heavy machine guns and quickly crawled over. The ground was crowded with yellow figures, densely packed, looking like moving ants.

The position of the fourth division was already ahead, and the devils who were crawling at the front had already rushed within a hundred meters. They shouted excitedly, and changed their high posture to a low posture, so that it was easier for them to shoot, and they could approach the position of the fourth division while fighting.

Not long after they had climbed, countless black shadows suddenly flew out of the position of the Fourth Division. The devils looked up and saw black grenades dragging long white smoke and slamming down on them.

Boom, boom, thousands of grenades fell on the devil's team, instantly killing a large number of devils who were crawling in the front.

But the devils' nightmare was not over, and more grenades flew out of the trenches of the Fourth Division, drawing a graceful parabola in the air, and falling fiercely between them.

A series of explosions formed a large area of smoke in front of the position of the Fourth Division, and the devils who blew up and charged were killed and wounded innumerable.

A terrifying whistling sound spread quickly through the air, as the steel balls hidden in the grenade were propelled by the blast of the grenade to spread out in all directions after the grenade exploded.

"Retreat, retreat, quick!" The commander of the fourth division looked at the dense fog that filled the front of the position, and loudly gave the troops the order to retreat.

The officers and men of the 4th Division immediately jumped out of the trenches, carried their weapons and ran to the rear, joined the 5th and 6th Divisions waiting for them in the rear, and retreated all the way back under the command of Huang Youde.

"Report, the people of China have retreated" In the rear of the Japanese army, the commander of the 79th Brigade suddenly heard the news of the retreat of the People's Liberation Army, and his eyes were about to pop out.

"Do you want to run away when you take advantage? I'm scared of our artillery, so that's why I want to run away, right? A grim smile appeared on the corner of the 79 Brigade Commander's mouth, and he roared: "The whole army immediately pursues, don't be too fast, and keep the artillery always following behind us." If they want to run, then we will keep chasing them until we drive them all out of Hebei! ”

"Hay!" The reporting officer turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait!" The commander of the 79th Brigade suddenly shouted: "Report to General Gu Chengyong immediately, give him a report on everything here, and ask the army to come to support immediately." ”

"Hay!"

The mixed forces of the 79th Brigade and the 139th Division continued to pursue the PLA. And the report of the commander of the 79th Brigade was quickly delivered to Gu Chengyong.

At this time, Gu Chengyong's main force was less than ten kilometers away from them. The sound of gunfire from both sides could be heard clearly by Gu Chengyong.

After reading the report, he pondered for a moment, and decided not to report like Kazuki Kiyoji for the time being, but directly ordered: "The whole army immediately followed, and the PLA seems to be really scared." Let's keep up and see what tricks the PLA plays! ”

Smoke swept across the ground, and the Second Army retreated very quickly. The heavily armed troops had already retreated when the 5th and 6th Divisions rushed out to fight the Japanese in a decisive battle, and at this moment they had already retreated to the safety of the rear.

It didn't go far before the Second Army made peace with the First Army. Huang Youde and his guards went directly to the front-line positions that the First Army had just established, and soon found Gao Dong and Hu Xinghan.

"Chief of Staff, mission accomplished. The little devils are biting right behind us now, and we'll be seeing them soon! Huang Youde saluted Gao Dong.

"Very good, your second army has worked hard!" Gao Dong handed a note full of words to Huang Youde, and said with a smile: "The following tasks have all been written, follow the instructions above, and take the troops to prepare!" ”

Huang Youde didn't open it immediately, and then saluted Gao Dong: "Then I'll leave it to you here, you have to be careful, the little devil's weapon is really a shotgun." I just didn't eat my fourth division by artillery bombardment! ”

"Okay, I know it in my heart, you guys should withdraw quickly!" Gao Dong smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

The Second Army jumped over the defensive line dug by the First Army and retreated quickly to the border.

When the Second Army was fighting with the devils, the First Army had already dug trenches here. Compared to the trenches dug by the Second Army before, this place is much stronger, and it is no problem to block the devil's artillery bombardment for a day.

"Chief of Staff, the devil's pursuers are coming!" Hu Xinghan pointed to the devil troops in the distance who were surging like a flood.

"What's the difference with a swarm of locusts?" Gao Dong said coldly: "Artillery preparation, let some of them in first, and then cut them off!" ”

"Understood!" Hu Xinghan nodded, turned around and left to arrange.

A large number of devils rushed over with a wild scream, they thought they had defeated the PLA, and at this moment they were arrogant to the extreme, shouting that they would kill all the people.

"Fire!"

Suddenly, behind the positions of the People's Liberation Army, more than 300 artillery pieces roared in unison. The roaring cannonballs streaked across the sky, directly cutting the team of devils into two.

At the same moment, on the positions of the First Army, all the machine guns roared at the same time. A barrage of death rushed towards the devil's team.
