The sudden sound of gunfire startled the devil, and then the devil's machine gun fired.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

"Da Da Da ......"

The devil's machine-gun bunker was exposed in two places, and with the miscellaneous sound of Type 38 rifles, more than a dozen brothers were quickly pressed and unable to raise their heads.

"Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw......"

The squad leader shouted that his mission was accomplished.

Fifty meters away, a platoon of men quickly marked the point of machine-gun fire on paper with a pencil, and the infantry around them were already firing at the trenches.

"Cover shot, withdraw!"

The leader of the row shouted, putting pencils and paper in his pockets.

"Sudden ......"

"Bang, bang, bang......"

The fierce gunfire covered the rapid retreat of the dozen or so brothers who had come forward.

"Huhuhu......"

The bullets chased the ass and ran wildly, and the retreating brothers climbed and rolled on the ground in embarrassment, disappearing from the sight of the devils.

"Regiment commander, about six hundred meters away, the devil has a fixed fire point and a trench, according to the firing situation of the machine gun fire point, it should be a semi-underground fortification or bunker ......"

The platoon leader reported the situation to Feng Yi.

"Now it depends on the devil who can't get out."

Feng squinted his eyes and told the brothers to continue digging bunkers and getting ready.

"Yes, the attack has been launched, and the devil knows that we are behind him."

"The devils didn't fight back, and there is no trend to attack us at the moment......"

In the walkie-talkie, Feng Ye and Liao Yaoxiang put down the walkie-talkie after a simple call.

"Boom, boom......"

On the front of the valley, the tank guns were still roaring, and with the sudden sound of machine guns, two companies maintained pressure on the Wakang line on the valley.

"The devils still show no signs of breaking through."

Watching the sun gradually tilt westward, Liao Yaoxiang finally felt that the war seemed to have changed.

"It's up to the night."

Liao Yaoxiang muttered, fortunately, they still have time.

"Where is the howitzer battalion?"

Liao Yaoxiang looked back at the chief of staff.

"Just passed through the valley of the Bujeban Mountains an hour ago."

The chief of staff looked at his watch, and he didn't say anything about the heavy artillery unit, because the heavy artillery unit had just moved from the north and south rivers, and it was too difficult to move.

"Let them speed up, and before dawn tomorrow, set up artillery positions and shell Wakon."

Liao Yaoxiang had a faint feeling that the devils in front of him would not break through, because their firepower during the day was not exposed much, at least they would block themselves here for a few days.

"Order the troops, stop the attack, do a good job of defense, and prepare for the counterattack of the devils at night."

There are still a few hours before dark, Liao Yaoxiang is no longer ready to fight, this kind of meaningless attack, not to mention the waste of bullets, the key is that the casualties of the troops are not cost-effective.

"Division commander, do you want to use artillery?"

The officers were a little puzzled, this was just the beginning, and the commandos behind them did not launch a two-sided flanking attack, why did they have to use artillery?

"It's always a good idea to be prepared."

"If the Japanese army doesn't break through tonight, then there is no need to spend it here, use artillery to quickly sweep this place, I don't know how many hard bones are waiting for us in front."

Liao Yaoxiang was very helpless, what he was most afraid of was that the devils would defend every position and drag the time until the rainy season came.

The battlefield soon fell silent, the Japanese had no plans to counterattack and break out, and their only mission here was to hold back the expeditionary force, which would retreat south of Karui as long as it could not capture Karui before the rainy season.

"Be vigilant."

Behind Wakang, Feng Ye and the brothers were lying or lying down, quietly staying in the individual bunkers, they were attracted to the devils to come out to fight in the field, the shrub area and the river valley terrain, the trenches were not easy to dig, most of them were dug individual bunkers.

"Goo-goo-goo......"

Around Wankang, frogs and various insects that have escaped the war vent their anger and express the destruction of their homes by outsiders.

"Woo woo woo ......"

Near Laban, trucks with 105 howitzers rumbled northward in the truck's lights, and in the valley of Bujeban Mountain, more trucks loaded with supplies, followed by a convoy of 155 heavy guns.

"Division commander, the 105 howitzer battalion has arrived at its position and is building artillery positions; In addition, heavy artillery units are also moving in, and it is expected that the shelling position will be reached before dawn. ”

It was late at night, and there was still no movement of the devils to break through, and the officer on duty reported the movement of the artillery to Liao Yaoxiang.

"Let the heavy artillery units build positions before dawn and prepare for artillery bombardment."

The heavy artillery unit can participate in the battle, so that Liao Yaoxiang's spirit is lifted, 155 heavy artillery can destroy all the fortifications in the shell explosion area, no need for heavy artillery to destroy all the fortifications, as long as the devil's fortification system is destroyed, under the cover of the tank, the infantry can easily uproot the devil's bunker and fire support points one by one.

"Tell Feng Ye that the heavy artillery unit will shell Wakang after dawn, and let him pay attention to dodge."

Liao Yaoxiang simply sat up, the heavy artillery unit could not accurately control the landing point of the shells, the power range was very wide, and the commandos were easily injured by mistake if they were not prepared.

"Yours, eat more!"

"Do you want candy?"

"Chocolate is gone......"

Before dawn, the logistics of the new 22nd Division had begun to distribute food so that the brothers could be fed and in better spirits when they stepped on the battlefield.

"Squeak......"

North of Laban, the howitzer battalion was ready, the muzzles were high, and less than a kilometer behind them were the positions of the heavy artillery units, the gunners frantically shaking their handles, the swarthy muzzles slowly rising in the shaking of the torches.

"The howitzer battalion will test fire first, and according to the corrected ballistics of the howitzer battalion, the heavy artillery unit will join the shelling."

Heavy artillery units position, artillery staff is reporting to officers about plans for shelling.

"Reply to Division Commander Liao, the heavy artillery unit has sufficient shells and is fully prepared, please don't worry about consumption, and push the front forward as soon as possible......"

The commander of the heavy artillery unit was an American, and there was never a word of saving ammunition in their philosophy.

"Let's get started!"

When dawn came, and Wakang loomed in the hazy morning light, Liao Yaoxiang asked the staff officer to notify the artillery to begin the shelling.

"One company, one test shot; Put! ”

Howitzer battalion positions, officers shouted, ordered shelling.

"Tweet ......"

With a screeching cannonball, the cannonballs pounced on Wan Kang......

"Boom, boom......"

The grenade of the 105 howitzer was very powerful, and the shell smashed hard near Vakon, but unfortunately it did not fall on the position of the devil.

"Northeast 005, plus five ticks ......"

The artillery observer shouted into the walkie-talkie.

"Squeak......"
