Chapter 1161: Temper Your Will!
Because of the addition of incendiary bombs, the area around the nameless village where the gunfire was fierce finally fell silent, and everyone watched as the fire spread, mixed with violent coughing and screaming.
The logistics staff replenished all the supplies that should be given to the front line, which made Feng Yi breathe a sigh of relief, and finally didn't have to worry about anything.
"How many anti-aircraft guns are there?"
Feng Yi suddenly remembered, what did the staff officer say just now; In his impression, he didn't ask for an air-headed anti-aircraft gun, it was too heavy and not a conventional air-dropped weapon.
"Four doors, dismantled into parts and packed in wooden boxes."
The staff officer replied.
"The Americans don't need it, they have a natural terrain advantage there, and even if the Japanese have tanks, they can't cross the river!"
"Give it to Rhoda, let him move to the third line of defense with the anti-aircraft artillery, and the devil's tank can't be used if it doesn't appear."
Feng Yi thought about it, the unexpected thing became his hole card again, he was not worried about the Japanese infantry attack, he was afraid of the devil's tank, although the Japanese tanks were not found on this line before, but I can't say where they would be transferred from, the time for the fire to burn, gave himself time to prepare and adjust, and also gave the devil the opportunity to reorganize the attack, in addition to being killed directly by the aerial bomb, in fact, the fire was fair to both sides.
"Look at this place, if there is any need, try to meet it, if not, let the signal corps send a report and let the Americans airdrop."
Feng Yi looked into the distance, and the black smoke had covered the entire field, and even the villages a kilometer away could smell the indescribable smell.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"
"Battalion commander, I can't stand it anymore, retreat to the trenches in the back!"
The third line of defense, the brothers who retreated here could not stand it anymore, and their eyes were red, they were smoked by smoke.
"Endure it, and you won't die, what's not to stand it."
Min Fei wiped the sweat from his forehead, the fire burned towards them, and he took off his coat hotly.
"Battalion commander, this fire, the devils haven't come here now, they can only wait for death, why are they still guarding?"
A squad leader asked puzzled.
"It's an order, and when there's no new order, we can only carry it out."
Min Fei looked around and found that many of the brothers were frowning, and they were all a little unbearable.
"It seems that you are still too tender, you have not experienced the battles of Songhu and Nanjing, and your will is very problematic."
"Raise your hand when you feel like you're going to hide in the back."
Min Fei shouted.
"Go to the back without raising your hand, transfer the second company up, and you all stay."
Looking at the raised hands in the trenches, Min Fei frowned, it seemed that there were not one or two people who wanted to hide, but more than half a company, he changed his mind and decided to let these unbearable people continue to stay here, even if it was to kill a few, they had to temper their will.
"Take Me Away......"
The brothers who hid in the trenches had cold water, and when they fainted, officers took them to the back, while the Japanese and Burmese in the field were not so good.
"This fire will not stop for a while and a half, tell the brethren in the third trench that if there are no devils coming out, they can retreat back to the fourth trench."
Feng Yi looked at the time, it had been half an hour, and at this time, the devils had not rushed over from the fire in the field, so they would not have the physical strength and courage to rush over.
"Regiment commander, several battalion commanders reported that some of the brothers have retreated to the fourth line of defense, but they have not given up on the third line of defense."
The signal corps was talking about the reports of several battalion commanders, and even the signal corps didn't know what those battalion commanders meant.
"Let them pay attention to themselves."
Feng Yi smiled bitterly, and didn't plan to ask, at this time, he just stopped to think about the situation later.
"Feng, this fire is very good, at least it bought us a day, and it is estimated that this fire will not stop until tomorrow morning."
Inside the headquarters, Colonel Kinnison clapped his hands, he was not worried at all, and when he came, General Stilwell said that they would hold for seven days at most, and the new army in front would break through the Yubang line.
"Although we don't have to face the attack of the Japanese army now, we can also kick our breath, but the Japanese army can also use this time to gather more troops and more powerful firepower, and then we may not face a simple replenishment, their artillery and armored units may also appear."
In contrast to Kinnison's optimism, Feng was full of worries.
"Don't worry, when the fire is extinguished, we can call in air support, and their artillery and tanks will not be a problem."
Colonel Kinnison smiled and told Feng Ye not to worry.
"As soon as the fire is extinguished, the Japanese attack will begin, and by the time the planes come, maybe their tanks have already reached the front of our positions, and the planes will dare to drop bombs at that time?"
In Feng Yi's mind, there are only bombers on top, and there is no concept of dive bombers at all, in the Asian theater, this kind of high-tech thing has not yet appeared, even if it is a devil, it has not used dive bombing to bomb the Chinese army, because it is not needed.
"Colonel Feng, is there anything you can do to deal with it?"
Colonel Kinnison thought about it, there really is no good way, even if it is a dive bomber, the hit rate of bombing tanks is pitiful.
"Continue to expand the depth, and as soon as the fire stops, let the troops on the front line push forward, all concentrated on the first line of defense, and not only that, but two more lines of defense should be built in front of the first line of defense."
Feng Yi stood up, he wanted to expand his position outward, at least to make the field hospital in the village safer.
"Didn't you say that the Japanese would also attack when the fire was extinguished? How to fix it? ”
Colonel Kinnison thought back to Feng Ye's words and felt a little contradictory.
"On the four lines of defense, we have a separation zone, and the fire here will be extinguished earlier than on the field, maybe at night, we can build, one night, two lines of defense, there should be no problem."
Feng Yi squinted his eyes, he felt that this should be done, and he should give an order immediately.
"Colonel Feng, there is no way to move forward in the position by the river, and if we push forward, we can't retreat, and the river will become the life and death line of the soldiers."
Kinnison thought about it at this time, and the rest of the directions could be pushed forward, but the position by the river could not expand its depth due to special reasons, and the American army would have to die at that time.
"Before dark, let the air force come again, give us airdrop mines, the number should be large, you send people to the other side of the river, all the mines should be dense and wide, let the little devils slowly clear the mines, otherwise they can only attack from several other directions."
Feng Yi thought about it and thought of a way for Kinnison, but what he didn't expect was that doing this would greatly increase the pressure on his brothers.
"Very good, I'll send a report right away and let the command drop mines for us."
Colonel Kinnison's eyes lit up, mines could indeed be used in this way, and it was much easier to lay mines than digging trenches.
