The Japanese charge was useless, the four-layer position they were facing, there were five or six hundred people within a hundred meters of the front, and the dense bullets did not give them a chance to get close at all, although most of them were recruits, but after the battle, their hands were no longer shaking, their breathing could be stabilized, and they quietly aimed one by one and pulled the trigger.

The Japanese army, throwing down pieces of corpses all the way, but no one flinched, even if there was only one person left in a wave of attacks, it was a quick shot with a gun, running and pulling the big bolt, and then firing a second shot, and not turning around at all.

The soldiers did not understand such an act of the Japanese army.

"Stone, you said that this little devil is stupid, just rush alone."

One of the recruits pulled the trigger and told the soldier next to him that they weren't human.

"yes, I think they're in bad heads, unlike us."

The soldier named Stone changed the magazine as he spoke, and with a bang, he hit a Japanese soldier.

The platoon commander next to him heard the conversation during the shooting, and then shouted in a low voice: "Pay attention to discipline and don't talk casually." They are not stupid, they are carrying out the order to charge, and the soldiers, they are going to carry out the order. ”

"Oh......"

The two people who spoke no longer breathed, pulled the trigger with their heads in their heads, and shot the Japanese soldiers who were moths to the flames......

In such a battle without artillery, if the Japanese army does not have an advantage in numbers, the possibility of trying to turn the tables is almost zero, after all, they need to be close to within 300 meters, and about 200 meters is their accurate shooting distance.

Dong Ku received that there were already three pockets on both sides of the enemy, so he ignored it and continued to follow Qu Jungang's footsteps.

Tsukada had already seen at this time that the enemy's strength far exceeded their estimates, or else. There is no way to divide the troops to fight, and fight more. Not to mention Suzhou, Suqian alone must have more than 200,000, otherwise, it will be impossible to implement the encirclement of the raiding troops in the middle passage. This is not the relationship between combat effectiveness, weapons, this is determined by numbers.

Where did they get so many troops?

Tsukada pondered with a headache. The 400,000 troops in his hands defended Taierzhuang and the Xuzhou battlefield, and he originally thought that the strength of the army would far exceed that of the other party, but now it seems that the opponent's strength will exceed 300,000, and it is possible that more than 400,000 will also be.

He was right, but conservative. Lao Zhao has 200,000 in his hands, and there are constantly joining recruits, Dong Ku has more than 300,000 in his hands, and there are also recruited recruits in the collection, Gu Zhutong has 12 divisions, which are also 150,000 away, with a total strength of nearly 700,000, which is not counting non-combat transport troops.

Tsukada looked at the route of the enemy army marked on the map. He couldn't help but sneer: "Everyone, please see, the enemy's three-way army is advancing. The flanking attack on Xuzhou, especially the Suqian one, is facing Xuzhou, which is no more than forty kilometers away from us, and as for Taierzhuang, they have no ability to gnaw there. Obviously, it is to contain the forces of Taierzhuang. Forty kilometers in one day, they can be proud. ”

After a pause, he continued: "We have gathered more than 150,000 troops within 30 kilometers of Xuzhou, so wait for the enemy army to attack Xuzhou, and we will surround it on all sides. Let the decisive battle begin under the city of Xuzhou! ”

His self-confidence was precisely the effect of Dong Ku's want, Dong Ku's army was no more than 30 kilometers away from the Japanese position, but it did not advance, but rested, adjusted the deployment, built positions, and defended the passage.

At the same time, it is to wait for the dark, and at the moment of nightfall, the fighters are almost rested, and will launch an offensive to break through the whole line.

In Yangzhou, the materials have arrived in Baoying, delivered overnight, and will all arrive before dawn tomorrow. Shells, Dong Ku is not worried about not enough, he has prepared enough.

Qu Jungang's battle formation had already been adjusted, and after five or six hours of fighting, he summed up a lot of valuable experience and readjusted the deployment of self-propelled artillery.

Artillery, also in the rest of the start of the previous one, built positions, ready for the assault.

Yu Ke had already arrived at the position, and Yu Lei also handed over the task of attacking Suzhou to Gu Zhutong, and took Gu Zhutong's five divisions to bypass Suzhou and advance together.

Seeing that it was about to get dark, the warriors who had rested for a few hours were ready for battle, Dong Ku carefully checked the latest information he had just received, and then gave the order to start the attack.

The artillery pieces that had been constructed were built in groups of ten, and in the order, they opened fire with a bang.

The cannonball, whistling into the sky, followed by an eye-grown, falling towards the Japanese military camp within thirty kilometers.

A loud bang roared on the position, rising in the barracks, and the Japanese soldiers who were eating dodged in a panic, and the lunch boxes and rice all over the ground were trampled underfoot, and then they were rolled up by the violent shock wave and disappeared without a trace.

"Dodge shelling!!"

Following the order of the headquarters, shouts rang out from the positions one after another, and the Japanese troops who were not bombed went into the anti-artillery holes one after another, waiting for the shelling to end.

They all knew that the enemy was still about 30 kilometers away from the main position, and that this was only an artillery bombardment, not an attack.

But where did they know that Dong Ku's bombardment included the forward positions in Xuzhou, of course, the main direction was the east side of Xuzhou, which opened the way for Qu Jun Gang in advance.

Tsukada will not attack the advance army of the Tsukada Raid Road, even if it is a night battle, he believes that it will only begin when the troops have marched more than 20 kilometers and approached the position.

Qu Jungang's convoy moved in the shelling, the self-propelled artillery opened the way, the truck followed, followed by the self-propelled artillery, and then the provisions, just roared all the way, as if no one was on the side, they got off the road, and followed the position of 30 kilometers east of Xu Shou, only straight to the opposite side.

The moment Qu Jun just moved, Yu Lei also moved, and he also opened the road with shelling, and drove all the way forward.

Yu Ke launched an attack at the same time, and in the roar of artillery fire, the army rushed to the course of the artillery bombardment like a tide, and quickly advanced forward.

After Qu Jungang's self-propelled artillery ran 15 kilometers, the artillery on this side had reached its maximum range, and the explosion of the roar in front of them, along the way, piles of flames pointed out the direction for the advance.

The fighters had all disembarked and spread out, following the self-propelled artillery, cleaning up the remnants of the enemy left behind by the shelling.

The Japanese troops, when the self-propelled artillery was close to thirty or fifty meters, heard the shaking of the earth in the anti-artillery hole, and immediately understood that this was the enemy's armored force, so they swarmed out and prepared to block the attack.

They were greeted by a dense rain of bullets, anti-aircraft machine guns and heavy machine guns on trucks, the roar of toms, and the rising Japanese soldiers were torn apart by huge bullets, and in the dust, fragments were scattered in all directions.

Forty anti-aircraft machine guns and three or four hundred heavy machine guns spread out in a large area, advancing in unison, strafing the outcropping Japanese troops.

The shares in the side of the fighters to mention oh you offer to shoot bang bang and clean the front end of the self-propelled artillery, ready to use bombs, blow up the artillery chain rails of the Japanese army.

The battle, tragic and bloody, was led by the advance army, and the unilateral slaughter made those Japanese soldiers who had just drilled out of the anti-artillery holes not have many opportunities to shoot, and they were broken into pieces in the rain of bullets.

In Xuzhou, Tsukada didn't know that the enemy army had begun to advance on both flanks, he originally thought that this was just shelling the main position, increasing casualties for himself, and destroying the position.

Under the effective shot, several telephone lines were blown up, and those that were not blown up were also cut off by the Huya warriors at the moment of the attack.

At the same time, the coordinates of the Japanese headquarters were among the targets of the shelling, which were all information obtained by the Huya soldiers in disguise, which made the shells look like eyes, and even if they did not hit the command center, the drop was within 200 meters, which was enough for all the generals in the command headquarters to be killed.

In the loud bang, one by one the headquarters were hit by shells, and the headquarters buried deep in the ground to take the fans, not to mention that it was not cement, even if it was cement, it could also shock the Japanese troops inside to death.

The shells that bombarded the headquarters were not five or ten, but twenty, and the violent shock caused the generators in the headquarters to go out, turning all the people inside into dead bodies, and the commander was immediately paralyzed, allowing the artillery to be bombarded, but he did not know that the enemy was approaching.

When the self-propelled artillery was close to the limit of long-range artillery fire, it had already slipped away, and in the loud roar, the shells flew two kilometers away, grabbed the baton, and continued to bombard the positions on the highway that the artillery could not reach, and the team rushed forward without stopping.

The follow-up troops continuously transported the 75 mountain guns, field guns, and heavy machine guns to the designated positions, and built a position every five kilometers in the two-kilometer-wide hearing area where the artillery was fired, and defended on the left and right, so that the 75 mountain guns with a range of 6,000 meters could support the positions next to them, and prepare for tomorrow or tonight's counterattack.

The army also drove into the passage opened up by this shell, and along the way, quickly built trenches, built defenses overnight, and continued to follow up with the advance of Qu Jungang.

The army had advanced for two hours, and had already crossed the front of Xuzhou in the east, and the Japanese army had not yet realized that their territory was being cut, and they were still enduring the shelling that had approached Xuzhou. Not to mention the people, even the Japanese army was terrified, and in the violent shock, staring at the darkness, they did not dare to leave the anti-artillery hole.

In the city, many glass windows were shattered by the violent shock, and there was a rattling sound even if they were not broken, and even Tsukada was very shocked, shocked that the power of the opponent's artillery was so great.

In the rush, Lao Zhao was accustomed to it, and he was not too surprised by the speed of quickly interspersing between Taierzhuang and Zaozhuang. But Gu Zhutong was different, he was already very shocked when he saw the large-caliber artillery on the back of those tanks that came from Yangzhou this morning and learned that this was not a tank, but a self-propelled walking artillery. But I didn't see the operation, and I didn't know the effect of the road, and the division commanders who followed Yu Lei sent back the news that all the way, there was no pressure on the position at all, and when they took over the defense and built a position to defend on both sides, they only saw the craters of the whole position, and the corpses of the Japanese soldiers in the full position, and the effect was quite amazing.

Advance, without pressure, the command along the way was cut off, so that the news has not leaked. But this is not absolute, at the beginning, it was just that the Japanese army did not think of it, and there were still Japanese troops stationed next to the area that could be bombarded.

"What? The enemy has advanced to the east side of Xuzhou?!! ”

Tsukada, who was shaking in the headquarters, was shocked when he received the message...... (To be continued......)
