Seeing the dense crowd in front of him, like a wave of earthy yellow, the Japanese attacking troops were quickly rushing towards their front-line positions. txt e-book download**Captain Xiao Yueping's face immediately showed a hint of mockery. Then, he said very confidently to the chief of staff and others beside him.

"I really didn't expect that with the invention of light and heavy machine guns, we have entered the battlefield of the era of pure firepower, and we can still see the scene of the enemy charging in clusters here, which is really eye-opening. However, today I will show the little devils on the other side, in front of the light and heavy machine guns, their cluster charge will not play any role except for increasing the casualties of the troops and adding some more results to us..."

"Chief of Staff, just now the bombing of enemy planes, the casualties of the first company are not large, and there is no loss of weapons and ammunition ...."

"It's not big, except for the loss of a heavy machine gun, there are no casualties and losses...."Facing the fact that the position was getting closer and closer in front of him, and the momentum was approaching a thousand little devils, the chief of staff quickly replied.

"It's good if it's not big. Order: From the heavy machine gun company, draw three heavy machine guns to supplement the first company, and strengthen the fire density of the first company. Tell the company that the Japanese could only open fire after they had entered a range of 200 meters. When the time comes, don't save me bullets, and give me all the machine guns that I can use. At the same time, the No. 1 artillery position was ordered, and after the battle began, it was responsible for providing sufficient artillery support to the first company, and under the guidance of the special operations division on the battlefield, it destroyed the enemy's mortar position as soon as possible...."The regiment commander Xiao Yueping ordered with a confident face.

"Two hundred meters....Commander, will it be too close. You know, the little devil dispatched a whole thousand troops? The distance of two hundred meters is an instant for the troops who are charging quickly...."The political commissar asked with a worried expression.

"Not close at all...."

"Political commissar, don't forget, now our company, plus the three heavy machine guns I just supported in the past, is equipped with a full five heavy machine guns and twelve crooked handles....such dense firepower, if you still let the little devil rush to the front of the position, then the company commander will not let me do it...."Commander Xiao Yueping said.

"Okay, I'll go give the order right away..."

The front-line trenches in Xiangshan were bombed by several Japanese fighters, although several gaps were blown up. However, with the entry of more than 100 commanders and fighters in a company, several gaps were blocked by sandbags in less than five minutes. TXT eBook Download**

In five minutes, nearly 1,000 densely packed Japanese attacking troops, also under the cover of heavy machine guns behind them, quickly advanced to a position less than 300 meters away from the position.......

Perhaps it was the tranquility in front of them, without any sign of counterattack, that aroused the blood in the hearts of the Japanese soldiers. Seeing the position close at hand, nearly 1,000 Japanese soldiers, under the command of commanders at all levels, quickened the pace of their own charge, held up the rifles with bayonets already in their hands, and launched the final stage of a decisive charge with a scream.

However, it was just a dense little devil, only two hundred meters away from the front-line position. When you see a continuous position, you can step on your feet. It was still a quiet position just now, and in an instant, countless black holes and barrels appeared. At the same time, a burst of dense machine-gun fire also reached their ears at the first time.

On a position less than 200 meters long, a whole 17 light and heavy machine guns were lined up, and with a rate of fire of tens of thousands of rounds per second, they quickly intertwined an impermeable bullet net in front of the position.

In less than two seconds, that is, before the Japanese attacking troops could react from the sudden dense firepower, the rows of Japanese troops charging at the forefront were quickly cut to the ground like wheat under the dense rain of bullets, and turned into corpses covered with blood holes.

The hundreds of little devils who were at the forefront of the charge were swept to the ground by the dense rain of bullets and turned into corpses when they were at a loss. The little devil in the rear, with his own literacy, although he reacted at the first time and wanted to hide. However, at this moment, they are in the situation of rapid charge, and it is almost impossible to hide or retreat at the first time.

And in the entire attacking force, because of the sudden dense firepower, the speed of the charge was stunned and hundreds of Japanese soldiers fell in the impenetrable rain of bullets in front of them.

Forward Command of the Japanese Army.

The commander-in-chief, Major General Yoshino, saw that his dense offensive formation, under the super dense firepower of the East China Field Army, at most one company of defenders, was like a massacre, and in just one round, hundreds of casualties were paid. A face immediately turned blue because of anger.

Seeing the forward position, almost every second, there were countless soldiers of the Imperial Army, who lost their lives under the intense fire of the East China Field Army. Major General Yoshino, who had a blue face, almost roared and ordered to the chief of staff beside him.

"Baga, how can the strength of that company have such dense firepower. The Air Force, what are the Air Force units doing to eat, there are so many aerial bombs, and even a company of the Chinese troops has not been destroyed. Order, attack the troops, immediately retreat, mortar clusters, immediately return fire, cover the retreat of the troops, quickly ..."

"Hayi...."

"Woo woo woo ...boom ..."Just when the chief of staff had just received the order and had not yet walked out of the command headquarters. A sharp whistling sound reached their ears. At the same time, the mortar position directly behind them was also the first to hear one dense explosion after another.

With the beginning of the counterattack of the first infantry company, after repeated reinforcements by the headquarters, the No. 1 artillery position of the 235th Regiment, which had a full 12 mortars, launched a rapid counterattack in a very timely manner under the guidance of the battlefield special combat personnel.

12 mortar shells, although they could not pose much of a threat to the Japanese mortar cluster. However, with his high-speed rate of fire, round after round of shells, like rain, fell on the Japanese position. Before the transfer of the remaining Japanese artillery was completed, more than half of the mortars were lost in the sudden artillery attack.

Without the suppressive fire of the mortar cluster, coupled with the heavy machine-gun positions behind them, there was no chance to fire at all under the artillery fire of the No. 1 artillery position of the 235th regiment, regardless of the consumption. The first wave of Japanese attacking troops, nearly 1,000 Japanese troops, finally successfully retreated, leaving less than one squadron of troops.

Faced with a huge loss that is almost unacceptable to yourself. In the face of the successive orders from his superiors to take his position, the only thing that Major General Yoshino, who had lost his superiority in artillery fire, was to rely on his superiority in strength and launch round after round of cluster charges under the cover of the air force's repeated bombing.

"Order the air force units to throw all the ammunition they carry to the front-line positions in China, and blow up their positions to me....order the 2nd Infantry Brigade to prepare for the charge. Even if you fill it with human life, you will also take the position of Shina for me...."Clenching his fists, Major General Yoshino ordered with an angry face.

"Hayi...."

So, in the next day's attack, in front of the Xiangshan position, such a scene appeared. Groups of Japanese attacking troops, with the support of aerial fighters, launched a decisive charge to the Xiangshan position one after another.

However, wave after wave of charges, just like a movie set in advance, just charged two hundred meters away from the front-line position, and was blocked by the sudden dense firepower on the Xiangshan position. In the end, the dense attacking forces had to leave behind pieces of corpses and retreat in disarray....

Of course, such a fierce attack by the Japanese army, coupled with the unscrupulous bombing of the air force, also caused huge casualties to the 235th Regiment that held on to Xiangshan. However, no matter how great the casualties of the 235th Regiment were, they were not as great as the casualties of the Japanese attacking troops in front of them.

When night fell, the entire battlefield slowly quieted down as the last wave of Japanese attacking troops retreated. On the Xiangshan position, the soldiers who had been fighting for a day in a row had time to rest and review the day's battle.

And at this moment, in front of the position, under the light of bonfires, the corpses of the Japanese soldiers who had been piled up showed everyone the great results achieved by the 235th Regiment in one day's battle...

"Commander, the results of the battle are out. In one day of fighting, our 235th regiment, including the seriously wounded, lost a total of 218 people. At this rate of loss, with the existing strength of our 235th regiment, we can hold out for at least five days. As for the results of the battle, the piles of corpses of the little devils in front of him are the best proof of this. ”

"According to preliminary statistics, in today's one-day battle, the total strength of the Japanese troops attacking us reached a brigade. Judging from the corpses abandoned by the Japanese army in front of them, the Japanese army lost at least 1,800 people in one day's attack. According to the ratio of the attacking troops killed to those seriously wounded, if nothing else, a field brigade of the Japanese army lost 2,500 men in just one day of fighting. In the Xiangshan command post, the chief of staff of the regiment reported with an excited face.

"The loss of 200 people in exchange for the casualties of 2,500 elites of the little devils is worth it. Political commissar, chief of staff, it seems that the entire defensive battle, as the chief of the general staff expected, will become a little devil' The head of the regiment said confidently.

The day's bloody battle was not only the Xiangshan position that the Japanese army attacked, but also several other positions. In the face of the super machine-gun firepower of the East China Field Army, the Japanese attacking troops, after losing their superiority in artillery fire, all returned home.

In just one day, tens of thousands of elite Japanese troops did not reap any benefits except for leaving more than 6,000 corpses in front of the positions of the East China Field Army. The East China Field Army, which was covered by trenches, only paid less than a thousand casualties in a day's fighting. It can be said with certainty that the entire defensive operation will be developed in complete accordance with the ideas of the left power, so that the entire periphery of Zhenjiang will become a 'meat grinder' for the Japanese army in the next few days of fighting.
