On the highway less than a kilometer away from the Wudoujing battlefield, an armored car was quietly parked, and a small group of Japanese soldiers held bayonets to guard a radius of 50 meters, and several sharp soldiers even placed their sentry posts 200 meters away.

These two old devils are none other than the Wing Commander of the 44th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army, the second Wing of Chitaka and the deputy Captain Kinoshita Hideyoshi, and the two old devils have been staying here for a while.

"Crazy, these soldiers are crazy." Kinoshita Hideyoshi muttered, but he couldn't help but admire the group of soldiers of the national army on the battlefield in front of him, who went forward and regarded death as home, little Japan was born with a dog nature, and they never sympathized with cowards, but they still respected real warriors very much.

He Zhiying Er was also a little secretly frightened, but what surprised him even more was another phenomenon.

The 10th Independent Heavy Artillery Wing and the 11th Mountain Artillery Wing shelled Wudoujing for a full hour and a half, pouring at least 5,000 rounds of high-explosive or sulfur shells into the position with a radius of less than 500 meters in front.

"I can't believe it, I can't believe it!" He Zhiying Er put down the binoculars, his face was full of shock, "Can't kill them with such a dense and intense shelling?" How did they survive? Could it be that these soldiers are all rats, and they all went underground during the shelling just now? ”

"yes, what's going on?" Kinoshita Hideyoshi was also stunned when he heard this, "Where did the branch soldier hide just now?" ”

"Where to hide?" Kazuchi Takaji's gaze inadvertently swept over the reeds on both sides of the riverside, and suddenly seemed to have an understanding, and immediately ordered Kinoshita Hideyoshi: "Order, Kondo Brigade and Takahashi Brigade stop attacking and retreat two kilometers!" ”

"Nani? Captain, the offense has just begun. Kinoshita Hideyoshi was confused, although the resistance of the Chinese army was very tenacious, but under the guidance of the chariot squad, the Kondo brigade had broken through the first line of defense of the Chinese army, and Kinoshita Hideyoshi had reason to believe that in more than half an hour at most, the opposite national army should collapse.

"Yaga!" He Zhiying Er was furious and said, "You just have to carry out the order." ”

"Hello!" Kinoshita Hideyoshi jerked his head down, then turned around and jumped out of the armored car.

Soon, Kondo and Takahashi, who were in command of the battle, received an order to stop the attack, and although both of them were puzzled, they strictly implemented the order of Kazuchi Takaji and withdrew to the attack position with their troops, and the Japanese tanks that had just been showing off their might in front of the national army position also withdrew.

Liu Zhenwu was also confused, where is Little Japan singing?

Just now, the Japanese army on the left flank under the guidance of four tanks has even broken through the two lines of defense of the 2nd company in a row, and then advanced more than 200 meters, Liu Zhenwu's battalion headquarters was directly exposed to the tracks of the Japanese tanks, Liu Zhenwu was even ready to die for the country, but the little Japan suddenly retreated, what is this?

Just when Liu Zhenwu was puzzled, a faint scream came from the eastern sky again.

"me!" Liu Zhenwu suddenly screamed, "Brothers, run, hide, hide......"

Liu Zhenwu screamed while throwing off his long legs and rushing to the small riverside hundreds of meters away, and the four or five hundred officers and men who had just been stunned on the position woke up like a dream, one by one, like frightened hares, they rushed out of the trenches one after another, and rushed to the cotton fields, reeds, or small bamboo forests around the position at the fastest speed.

The next moment, rows of shells were already whistling.

Liu Zhenwu jumped into the small riverside with a fish, a cannonball fell dozens of meters behind him and exploded suddenly, the flames of fire spread violently with the air waves, but the aftermath swept Liu Zhenwu away and fell heavily into the riverside, and then a large amount of hot soil and gravel were sprinkled in the air, burning Liu Zhenwu's teeth.

Liu Zhenwu narrowly escaped his life, but other officers and men were not so lucky, and the shelling of the little Japanese came so suddenly that many officers and men did not have time to withdraw from their positions, and were swallowed up by the continuous violent explosions in an instant.

"Dog's day little devil." Liu Zhenwu covered his ears tightly, lying on his elbows in the small riverside and didn't dare to move, but he cursed viciously in his heart, "Little Japan, which kills a thousand knives, is too cunning." ”

Liu Zhenwu didn't know that the nightmare of the 1st Battalion had just begun.

Kinoshita Hideyoshi climbed onto the roof of the car again, trying to pull Kazuchitaka down while persuading: "Captain, this place is too close to the Shina position, it's dangerous, let's leave quickly." ”

The overall quality of the Japanese artillery is good, but it is guaranteed that there will be a rat droppings, and it is not a joke to hit the shells here.

He Zhiying Er ignored it, just called "Yo Xi" and "Yo Xi" in his mouth, and kept adjusting the focus of the telescope with both hands, observing the national army position on the opposite side back and forth, and soon he saw what he wanted to see, and a "Chinese soldier" was actually swept away by the air wave to a height of more than ten meters and then shattered.

"Yo Xi, Yo Xi, it was the straw man who stayed on the position!"

Looking at the straw scattered in the air, Kazuchi Takaji finally showed a smug smile on his face, so he jumped out of the armored car, and got into the armored car with Kinoshita Hideyoshi, and after the armored car drove a thousand meters north, he issued a second order, ordering the Kondo Brigade and Takahashi Brigade to retreat 500 meters again.

A moment later, the Japanese artillery suddenly corrected and fired at Zhu Yuan, and fired rows of shells into the cotton fields, small bamboo forests, and riverside near the Wudoujing position.

Almost all of the shells that hit the bamboo forest exploded in the air, and there were no dead ends at all.

Two kilometers away, Kinoshita Hideyoshi smiled and said to Kazuchi Takaji: "Captain, the pig died miserably this time. ”

"Unless they can actually turn into rats and burrow into the ground, huh." He Zhiyinger smirked smugly, and said, "However, there are bigger surprises waiting for them, hehe." ”

After speaking, He Zhiying Er turned his head and said a few words to the adjutant.

The adjutant hurriedly copied the walkie-talkie to contact the artilleryman, and Kinoshita Hideyoshi was even more amazed and said: "Captain, it is really their misfortune that the Shina Army has met you, but this seems to be a little out of line with the spirit of bushido?" ”

He Zhiying Er smiled and said: "Han Feizi, a legalist from Guchina, once said that between the battle formations, he is not tired of deceit, so on the battlefield, any means are above board, so that deception does not conflict with the spirit of the empire's bushido. ”

The Japanese shelling lasted only twenty minutes.

Liu Zhenwu staggered up from the small riverside and found that the shijie in front of him was red.

"Yingza, you've hung the lottery!" The orderly soldiers not far away suddenly shouted in horror, and Liu Zhenwu reached out and touched his cheeks and found that both hands were covered in blood.

"It's okay, rub some skin." Liu Zhenwu wiped the blood from his face with his sleeve, and his vision returned to clarity again, and he said while getting up and running to the position, "I can't die." ”

The medical soldiers rushed up and wanted to bandage Liu Zhenwu, but Liu Zhenwu pushed him away.

Staggering back to the position, he found that the position was full of the remains of fallen soldiers, many of whom had been blown up to pieces, and they could not be put together in order, and there were less than 300 officers and men who had come out of the cotton fields, reeds, and bamboo forests around the position, and most of them were bloody.

This round of shelling by Little Japan caused a large number of attrition to the 1 Group.

Liu Zhenwu silently walked back to the battalion headquarters, sat down and felt out the magazine and pressed the bullets into it one by one.

The more than 200 officers and soldiers who survived obviously knew what was about to happen, and they all sat down in silence, some silently wiping their bayonets, some silently looking up at the sky in a daze, and some looking at the photos in their hands and silently weeping, but more veterans were silently pressing bullets into the chambers of their guns.

However, the expected Japanese infantry did not appear.

The Japanese artillery, which had stopped for almost five minutes, began the third round of shelling without warning, and when the rows of shells fell from the sky with a short scream, Liu Zhenwu didn't even have the heart to curse, and he died left and right, what is the difference between dying under the guns of the infantry of Little Japan and dying under artillery fire?

Rows and rows of shells whistled in, turning the positions of the 1 battalion upside down.

From time to time, artillery shells fell in the trenches, directly tearing apart or flying the officers and men of the Nationalist army lying in the trenches, and a large amount of soil produced by the explosion buried the entire section of the hastily dug trenches.

Most of the small Japanese fires were high-explosive, and occasionally there were sulfur bombs, that is, a sea of fire, and the soldiers of the national army who were burned by the flames would jump up from the trenches with screams, and run wildly in all directions, but soon they would be lifted off by the violent explosions that followed, disintegrated, and when they landed again, there were only a few amputated limbs and stumps left.

The position, which was less than 500 meters in radius, was plowed over and over again by Japanese artillery fire.

More than 200 veterans fell silently in the trenches, and the sound wave generated by the explosion of the large-caliber grenade could crack people's eardrums, but these veterans were all indifferent, and the expressions on the faces of the veterans were not only indifferent or indifferent, but indifferent that could make people's hearts tremble, and they no longer regarded themselves as living people.
