Distance.
A large number of fortifications built by the 36th Group Army, on the top of the mountain, many soldiers of the 36th Group Army, a few hundred meters in front of the soldiers' position, that is, in the minefield, hundreds of little devils were lying there wailing, and more than a dozen large trucks also broke down and stopped there.
Seeing this, Saburo Endo's face was also quite ugly, and he thought in his heart, I am afraid that this will be a tough battle, and it will not be easy to break through the defense line of the 36th Group Army.
Especially in the vast area ahead, the terrain is open, and if your own troops charge, they are afraid that they will suffer heavy casualties, and there may be a lot of mines in that area.
Saburo Endo watched all this and was silent for a long time.
However, the chief of staff of the 123rd Division of the little devil seemed more anxious, and said anxiously: "Your Excellency the division commander, Your Excellency Commander Mijiro Umezu has given me an urgent order, we need to attack immediately, and break through the defense line of the 36th Army at all costs." ”
Hearing this, Saburo Endo nodded lightly, and then, a fierce color gradually appeared on his face, and he shouted loudly: "Order!" The 3rd Wing immediately launched a full charge, and the 1st and 2nd Wings were ready. ”
The Third Wing of Little Devils, with more than 3,000 people, and after a few hundred dead and wounded, there are more than 3,000 people, and 3,000 Little Devils immediately launched a large-scale charge along the railways and highways.
*********
The defensive positions of the 36th Army.
Many soldiers saw the movement of the little devil in front of them. A large number of little devils, at least several thousand, rushed straight over this side with weapons in hand.
"Ready to fight!!"
Many commanders, seeing that the little devil was about to start a large-scale charge, immediately shouted, suddenly. The warriors clenched the weapons in their hands one after another, facing the distance, at the little devils who rushed over.
The brigade of the little devils. The fighters were getting closer and closer, and it didn't take long for the little devils to begin to enter the minefield. Immediately, the fighters heard the sound of explosions in front of them.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
A lot of mines were trampled on by the little devils, and the little devils were killed and injured.
However, the little devils were not afraid of death, and still charged forward, and many little devil officers raised their command knives and shouted, ordering the little devils to rush forward.
The little devils didn't flinch. Step on the mines.
Although the little devils were badly bombed, more little devils were getting closer and closer to the soldiers' positions, and the little devils were screaming while charging.
I saw a large number of little devils rushing over. Many commanders shouted: "Comrades! Hit me hard! ”
"Da, da, da......"
Dense gunfire rang out, a lot of machine guns, a large number of AK-47 assault rifles, at the team charging at the little devils, shooting fiercely, and a large number of the little devils fell.
So many automatic weapons. A large number of dense bullets, every meter that the little devils advanced, paid a heavy price, and the little devils were knocked down one after another.
Some little devils, seeing that the firepower of the 36th Group Army was too fierce, simply lay on the ground and fired, and some little devils' machine guns were also hurriedly set up, ready to shoot and cover the charge of the little devils.
Some of the grenadiers of the little devils also began to crouch on the ground, ready to fire grenades.
It didn't take long for the two sides to fight fiercely.
As soon as the two sides fought, the firepower advantage of the fighters was still reflected, and a large number of automatic weapons not only knocked down a large number of charging little devils, but also some of the little devils who were lying on the ground and shooting, but they were almost beaten to the point that they couldn't raise their heads.
Some snipers also began to look for valuable targets, such as the machine gunners of the little devils, grenadier soldiers, and some officers of the little devils, which became the key targets of everyone.
"Bang, bang, bang......"
The sniper rifle kept ringing, and the little devils kept falling.
"Mortar! Give me a hard beating."
Many commanders, seeing that there were a lot of little devils, immediately ordered mortars to fire, whether it was the infantry regiment of the 6th column or the 8th column, each corps was equipped with a large number of mortars.
"Tom, tom, tom......"
Dense mortars sounded, and right away, sharp whistling sounded, dense explosions, in the crowd of little devils.
The little devils were blown to pieces.
Distance.
The commander of the Little Devil Division had been watching the battle, and seeing the heavy casualties of the Third Wing, the commander of the Little Devil Division was very uncomfortable in his heart, but he thought of the death order given by Umezu Mijiro.
Endo Saburo ordered the 2nd Wing, which had already done a good charge, to launch an attack behind the 3rd Wing, the 2nd and 3rd Wings of the Little Devils, charging the hills on both sides of the road and railway, and the purpose of the commander of the Little Devil Division was obvious, that is, to control the hills on both sides at all costs, so as to facilitate the passage of a large number of reinforcements and reinforce Jinzhou.
The 2nd Wing of the little devils, more than 3,000 people, also launched a large-scale charge.
Although the 3rd Wing of the little devils was killed and wounded by nearly half of them, the 3rd Wing also rushed to a distance of less than 200 meters in front of the soldiers' positions, and a large number of mines were also stepped on by the little devils.
With the reduction of mines, the charge of the little devils seemed to be much smoother, and with more than 3,000 people from the 2nd Wing joining the charge, the little devils began to advance steadily.
The two hills on both sides of the road, each with an infantry regiment, set up a defensive line at the foot of the mountain and on the mountainside, dug trenches, and began, the soldiers who fought with the little devils were basically the soldiers of the first line of defense at the foot of the mountain.
As the little devil approached step by step, the warriors on the mountainside also began to shoot, and the little devil completely entered the range of the defending warriors on the mountainside.
Quite a few machine guns, quite a few AK-47 assault rifles, also began to shoot. A large number of little devils fell.
In just ten minutes, in front of the soldiers' positions, the corpses of the little devils were piled up.
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Many soldiers who were defending at the foot of the mountain on the first line of defense, seeing the little devils getting closer and closer, the soldiers began to use grenades to greet the little devils, and many of the little devils were blown away.
As time passed, although the soldiers felt a lot of pressure, the casualties of the little devils were not small, and the two wings of the little devils totaled more than 7,000 people, and at this time, the casualties of the little devils had already exceeded half.
Distance.
The head of the little devil division, Saburo Nagato, looked at the battle situation in front of him, and felt both distressed and angry in his heart, the death of so many little devils made the commander of the little devil division heartbroken, his own such a powerful charge, he could not break through the defense line of the 36th Group Army, and Saburo Endo felt very angry.
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, if we continue to fight like this, our casualties will be too great, if we want to break through the defense line of the 36th Group Army, we must have artillery cover, let's open fire from our mountain artillery wing!"
Hearing this, the commander of the Little Devil Division silently said that in front of the heavy artillery of the 36th Group Army, his mountain artillery wing could only become an ornament, and as soon as the artillery was fired and the position was exposed, it would be destroyed by the heavy artillery of the 36th Group Army immediately.
Seeing that his division commander was hesitating, the little devil's chief of staff couldn't help but say resolutely: "Your Excellency the division commander, only by sacrificing the mountain artillery wing can we take the hills defended by the 36th Group Army. ”
The commander of the little devil division thought in his heart, it seems that it will be impossible to capture the mountains on both sides of the road and railway without paying a little price.
The little devil division, which had already made a decision in his heart, immediately ordered: "Immediately order the mountain artillery wing to open artillery to cover the infantry's charge, and order the 1st Infantry Wing to also charge." ”
The 123rd Division of the Little Devils, a total of four infantry wings, a baggage wing, a mountain artillery wing, an engineer wing, etc., a total of nearly 20,000 people.
Now, the Little Devil Division has sent the 1st Wing, plus the 2nd and 3rd Wings, which are now charging, and 3 Wings have been dispatched, leaving only the 4th Infantry Wing.
In order to break through the defensive line of the 36th Group Army, the Little Devil Division made a bloody investment, sent three wings to charge, and was also preparing to catch up with its own mountain artillery wing.
The Little Devil Mountain Artillery Wing had just finished building an artillery position, and 16 small-caliber mountain guns were lined up in a neat row, facing the defensive position of the 36th Group Army in the distance, and next to the position, there were 20 or 30 large trucks of the Little Devil.
After receiving the order, the Little Devil Mountain Artillery Wing immediately prepared to shell the positions of the 36th Group Army, and the targets of the Little Devil's artillery bombardment were also two hills on both sides of the road, which were also the key targets of the Little Devil Infantry's attack.
********
Thirty-sixth Group blocking position.
A lot of soldiers saw that the little devils seemed to have increased their troops again, and a large number of little devils were rushing towards their side.
In the face of the collective charge of the two wings, the pressure on the soldiers is still quite great, fortunately there are a large number of mines, which have killed and injured a lot of little devils, otherwise, the battle situation may not be like this, maybe the first line of defense has been broken through by the little devils.
"Captain! The little devils have increased their troops, and a large number of little devils have rushed over. ”
On the hill on the left side of the kilometer, the 1st Regiment of the 3rd Infantry Division of the 6th Column was holding there, and when it saw a large number of little devils charging again, a major battalion commander shouted anxiously.
The colonel commander in charge of the task of blocking the top of the mountain, looking at the little devils surging in front of him, was also secretly worried in his heart, worried that the soldiers of the first line of defense at the foot of the mountain might be difficult to hold.
The fighters have been shooting for so long, and many of the fighters' magazines are almost empty, and they need to replenish their bullets, but the little devils are constantly charging, and the fighters have not had time to press bullets on their magazines.
