A word to wake up the dreamer!

The angry expression on the recruit's face, although it dissipated quite a bit, became more determined.

"Please rest assured, I won't be impulsive anymore, shoot a shot to change places, kill devils, and avenge the injured squad leader."

One recruit after another matured in the face of death, and like veterans, they shot and killed people at the right opportunity to stop the Imperial Army.

Of course, in the process, there are many more recruits and many veterans who die before they have time to mature, or are injured and withdraw from the battlefield.

After all, the Imperial Concord Army is not a devil, and in the face of huge casualties, although it did not turn around and retreat as before. Under the threat of the officers and the devil instructors, continue to move forward step by step.

However, the pace of their attack was too slow.

The longer they dragged on the battlefield, the more time and opportunity the Eighth Route Army had to shoot and kill them.

At sixty or seventy meters, more than half of the more than 300 Imperial Allied troops had already lost, and more than 100 people were scattered on the battlefield, continuing to move forward step by step.

Many of the more clever Imperial Allies were directly killed and lay motionless on the ground, and when the battle was over, they retreated back with the rout.

A main force company and a recruit company on the position of the Eighth Route Army, a total of 300 people, had been carried down by more than 100 people by this time.

Four of the eight crooked handles were blown up by the Mortars of the Imperial Army, which was the result of the machine gunners constantly shifting machine gun positions.

However, there are more than a hundred people left in the position, whether they are recruits or veterans, at this time they are all in the posture of veterans, and they will definitely seize the opportunity if they shoot out whenever they have the opportunity.

Although there are fewer people, the density of bullets fired is not less at all.

From the beginning of the attack, the telescope that Ono was holding was never lowered.

During the entire offensive process, Major General Ono had a full view, frowning and not saying a word.

Brigade Commander Wang of the garrison brigade next to him also witnessed the entire battle, and his face had a very painful expression.

Every Imperial Allied army killed on the battlefield was his subordinate, and in troubled times, the army was a symbol of power and wealth. Every soldier under his command is invaluable to him.

Just when his heart ached and became more and more anxious, Major General Ono finally moved.

Put down the binoculars and ordered in a deep voice: "Wang Sang, let your people retreat, they have tried their best, but they will definitely not be able to rush forward!" ”

"As soon as the Imperial Allied Army retreats, the artillery brigade will immediately open fire, and the defense troops of the Eighth Route Army cannot be given any respite!"

"Thank you, General!" Brigade Commander Wang immediately turned his worries into joy, said with a grateful face, and then gave an order to the chief of staff behind him!

"Company commander, the Imperial Alliance Army has begun to retreat!" Yang Xiong, who had a bandage on his arm, was squatting in the trench to load his rifle, and the platoon leader who had just finished firing said with a happy face.

"It's a retreat!" Yang Xiong immediately seized the opportunity to glance at the battlefield.

There are more than 100 imperial allies, like lost dogs, and they turn around and shoot back, and they don't look like soldiers at all.

Yang Xiong's first reaction was also to breathe a sigh of relief, but the devil didn't give him this chance at all.

Ono's order was to wait for the Imperial Allied Army to retreat before firing the artillery, but the commander of the artillery brigade did not think so.

The sooner they opened fire, the more unprepared the Eighth Route Army on the position became. In this case, the powerful artillery shells will definitely bring great casualties to the Eighth Route Army. If it weren't for Ono's order, the captain would have wanted to open fire when the Imperial Allied Army attacked just now.

As for accidental injuries, the captain didn't care at all.

Anyway, it's not the imperial army that died, and as for the imperial army, it's a big deal to re-organize, anyway, China has cowards who work hard for the empire!

The screaming sound of "Woo woo woo ......" cannonballs across the sky reached Yang Xiong's ears like a talisman.

Yang Xiong's face as soon as he relaxed turned pale after brushing it, and he exclaimed.

"Shelling, everyone quickly enter the anti-artillery hole and dodge the shelling!"

"Boom......" The violent explosion interrupted Yang Xiong's unfinished order.

Many of the soldiers still had excited smiles on their faces after winning the battle, and the violent explosion blew them away, and there was no time to react.

"Fast into the bomb hole, rush in!" The experienced squad platoon commander shouted loudly during the interval between the shelling.

"What are you doing stupidly? Waiting to die? Fast forward to the anti-artillery hole! Seeing that some recruits were still stunned in place, the veteran next to him didn't talk nonsense, and directly pulled him to the nearest anti-artillery hole.

"The little devil of the dog day, he is too ruthless, he won't let anyone go!" Wang Liang, the instructor of the second battalion, slammed his clenched fist on a log supporting the headquarters in anger and scolded loudly.

"Where is his own person, the little devil has never regarded the Imperial Association Army as a person. However, this can also allow the Imperial Association Army to see the temperament of the little devil clearly, and let them know that they may lose their lives at any time if they work hard for the little devil, and they will die at the hands of their own masters. Zhang Yunshan was also very angry in his heart, but as a commander, he couldn't show it, so he could only analyze it in his calmest tone as much as possible.

"It's just that our fighters are suffering, and in this shelling, our men will lose at least one platoon!" Instructor Wang Liang, who slowly calmed down, analyzed.

"Connect Yang Xiong's phone immediately!" Zhang Yunshan did not answer, and ordered directly.

Soon, the phone was sent to Zhang Yunshan. Without waiting for Yang Xiong on the other end of the phone to speak, Zhang Yunshan split his head and asked with a face: "Company Commander Yang, can you still hold the position!" ”

"Yes, it's just that the casualties of the troops are a little bigger, and there are not many machine guns, only four left!" Yang Xiong replied very firmly.

"The devil has figured out your strength, the next attack will definitely be the Japanese army, at least one squadron, at most two squadrons, you have thought it through!" Zhang Yunshan did not let go and continued to ask.

"As long as the battalion commander, you add me a platoon and four crooked handles, I will have the confidence to hold the position!" Yang Xiong replied without hesitation.

"Good! I'll draw two platoons from the garrison camp for you, and give you another four crooked handles, a heavy machine gun, and a small artillery squad, and you must nail me to the position to block the next round of attacks by the devils! Zhang Yunshan made a decision directly on the phone.

More troops and equipment than expected, Yang Xiong's confidence was even stronger, and without saying a word, he promised: "Please rest assured, the battalion commander, if you can't hold the position, I will give myself a bullet directly!" ”

The blocking position of the Eighth Route Army was once again covered by artillery fire, although several Imperial Allied troops were mistakenly wounded and died on the battlefield, Ono did not say anything, and in disguised recognition of the artillery captain's artillery method.

Ono knew better than anyone the benefits of early shelling, but because the Imperial Allied Army was still useful in the next battle, he was worried that accidentally injuring them would affect their enthusiasm, so he did not give the order directly. But the commander of the artillery brigade has nothing to do with himself doing this, and the commander of the garrison brigade will not offend the captain of the artillery brigade because of the lives of several soldiers under him, after all, he needs the artillery support of the artillery brigade in many battles.
