"Quick, quick! Position well and suppress the Japanese positions on the other side of the river. "Colonel Han Jianfang, commander www.biquge.info of the 1st Infantry Regiment, ignored the threat from the front line, and directly climbed the No. 5 sandbar to command the battle.

You must know that the east of No. 5 sandbar is only 40 meters away from the Japanese defense line on the east bank of the Wangbin River. Any soldier of the Japanese army, as long as he finds him, can kill him.

The width of the No. 5 sandbar is a full 200 meters. The soldiers of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army, after boarding the No. 5 sandbank, first went ashore in the west of the sandbank, and then quietly went to the east of the sandbar to confront the Japanese army. Their mortar positions, infantry artillery positions, were also built in the western part of the sandbar. Only machine-gun fire points and grenadier canisters were deployed in the eastern part of the sandbar.

Of course, the more powerful field artillery and howitzers were deployed on the west bank of the Wangbin River.

"Commander, the 1st Regiment has already taken Sandbar No. 5. The day * himself on the sandbar was almost completely killed. Next, our plan can be implemented. Major General Lu Hengliang looked excited.

In half a day, the 1st Infantry Regiment completed the scheduled task, which made him very satisfied. Moreover, in the half-day battle, the casualties of the 1st Infantry Regiment were not large, with a total of less than 400 casualties.

"Well, let's start implementing it according to the predetermined plan! This time, we are going to let the day himself be in the Wangbin River and dry the blood. Sun Changwu had a cold smile on his face.

"Yes, Commander. However, we need close support from artillery and aviation. Otherwise, it would be difficult for us to complete the task alone. Major General Lu Hengliang was a little worried.

If the 1st Infantry Division successfully broke through the Japanese blockade and landed on the east bank of the Wangbin River, it might not be too much of a problem, at most it would be a matter of making the troops pay more losses. However, in order to realize the plan of strangling a large number of living forces of the Japanese army, it was necessary to cooperate closely with various departments.

"Well, I'll give the artillery an order. The air team, on its part, will also fully cooperate. Sun Changwu nodded, indicating that he would consider all of this. After all, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army is a whole, and both the infantry, artillery, and aviation units have to contribute their greatest strength to victory.

After Major General Lu Hengliang left, Sun Changwu ordered the 1st Engineer Brigade and the 1st Infantry Division's Engineer Battalion to immediately start building pontoon bridges. Although this section of the river is relatively wide, it is much less difficult to build a pontoon bridge if you can pass through the four sandbanks 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th.

If the pontoon bridge can be built, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will be able to continuously send the supplies and personnel needed on the front line through the pontoon bridge. It is even possible to send tanks and armored vehicles to the sandbar.

Of course, pontoon bridges that can be used by tanks and armored vehicles require special reinforcement. Only then will it be possible to ensure that heavy tanks and armored vehicles, capable of passing through pontoons. Otherwise, once the pontoon collapses, it will not be a joke.

The Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army completely occupied the sandbar on the Wangbin River, and it was only one step away from landing on the east bank of the Wangbin River, which made the Japanese 4th Division feel like facing a great enemy. If they were not able to resist the attack of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army and let the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army land on the east bank of the Wangbin River. Then, the entire line of defense has the possibility of collapsing. Just like the previous defense line of the Danonghe River was breached.

At that time, the Japanese army was no match for the armored forces of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army on the flat Thai plains. Their troops will be crushed by the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army until they are all killed, and once again stage a large-scale rout.

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, Wing Commander Morita Haruji, once again requests reinforcements. Their 3rd Brigade and all the jade were shattered, and the sandbar in the Wangbin River also fell into the hands of the Chinese people. The 8th Infantry Wing, now under tremendous pressure. The Chief of Staff of the 4th Division, Keisaburo Okuzu, reported.

Lieutenant General Sekihara No. 6, the commander of the 4th Division of the Japanese Army, also had a very ugly face. The attack of the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army has only begun for half a day. However, their main infantry wing has already been disabled. If this continues, how long will they be able to hold out on the battlefield? I'm afraid that soon, the entire division will collapse.

"The 37th Infantry Wing and the 61st Infantry Wing, each with one brigade, were ordered to reinforce the 8th Infantry Wing. No matter what, we must not allow the Shina to break through our defenses. Lieutenant General Sekihara ordered.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Division Commander." Keisaburo Okuzu nodded.

"Send a telegram to Morita-kun and tell him that I will support him as much as possible. However, I have only one request, and that is that the defense line must be under our control. If he is broken through by the Shina people, then he will apologize. Lieutenant General Sekihara ordered.

Although, in the 4th Division of the Japanese Army, which has always focused on saving lives, seppuku is undoubtedly extremely rare. However, as an army that is also poisoned by the spirit of bushido, this does not mean that they do not have a tradition of seppuku. In particular, many of the officers were transferred from outside Osaka, and they were not greatly affected.

"Hi, Your Excellency, Division Commander." Keisaburo Okuzu nodded repeatedly, and he took the words of Lieutenant General Sekihara Roku, and he also heard the urgency of the situation this time. Otherwise, Lieutenant General Sekihara No. 6 would never have given such a stern order.

The attack of the 1st Infantry Regiment of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army soon began. A dozen of their infantry guns and a large number of mortars began to pour shells into the positions of the 8th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army.

And, make it look like you are going to cross the river by force. This made the 8th Infantry Wing of the Japanese Army no longer dare to hide in the anti-artillery holes, and could only enter the position and engage in a fierce battle with the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army. And this made the Japanese army pay heavy losses when it was at an absolute disadvantage in firepower.

In particular, the artillery of the 1st Army of the Anti-Japanese Salvation Army and the fighters of the air force also joined the attack, which made the losses of the Japanese army rise in a straight line.

"Your Excellency, the 1st and 2nd Brigades have been hit by strong fire from the Chinese and have suffered heavy losses and are in dire need of support." The staff officer reported to Haruki Morita with an anxious expression.

"Yaga! Damn the Shina people, are they trying to consume us? The 37th and 61st Wings were ordered to reinforce the infantry brigades that had come over to support the 1st and 2nd Brigades, respectively. Morita Haruji Osaku ordered.

In order to prevent their defense line from being breached, Morita Haruji Osa could only continue to send reinforcements to the front line and fill it with human lives.
