Bayonet to bayonet, let the devil understand that the expeditionary force is also fierce, after 2 hours of bloody struggle with the Japanese army, the Japanese army suffered too many casualties, and finally could not support it, after a large number of officers were killed, the devil fled to his rear position, and the devil was defeated in the frontal battle.

Four hours had passed since the afternoon attack, and the officers and men of the new 22nd Division and the assault team were also very tired, but this was the time when morale was high, and the infantry and tank units immediately chased after them.

There is a forest between the third and fourth lines of defense of the devils, and their fortifications extend from the woods to better resist the armored forces of the expeditionary force, as long as they cross this forest, Wallatang will appear in front of the expeditionary force.

"Fast, fast......"

Outside the fourth line of defense, several devils were burying floating soil on top of an improvised bunker, but it was too late, they had already seen the soldiers fleeing.

"Good luck to you!"

"Withdraw, withdraw......"

The devil shouted, and after hastily covering up, retreated into the woods.

"Your Excellency, Tian Jiu Shaozuo has failed, and the rout is retreating here."

Nagashi Dazuo is in the headquarters of the fourth line of defense, so he can receive the latest news as soon as possible.

"There are still two hours before dark, and the Chinese army cannot be allowed to attack the fourth line of defense."

"Let the squadrons voluntarily form death squads, and as soon as the Chinese are close to the fourth line of defense, immediately launch a jade crushing attack."

"Tell all the officers and soldiers that the emperor is with us......"

Chang Dazuo was very calm, in fact, he was already very flustered, he had to wait for dark before retreating, now he didn't dare to retreat, once the order to retreat was given, he was afraid that the army would be defeated like a mountain, and the Maragaux behind him would be involved.

"You, you, you ......"

In the fourth position, the devil's officer pointed out the recruits one by one, and they were all voluntarily selected into the jade broken list, at this time, any officer hoped that his elite veterans would survive.

"Woo woo woo ......"

The roar of tanks sounded outside the woods.

"The Emperor is onboard!"

Several members of the Jade Crushed shouted slogans and rushed directly towards the tank.

"Knock Knock Knock ......"

A few shots in the car shot directly at these brainwashed devils, and in a series of shooting sounds, the devils who rushed out kept retreating, blood soaring, and fell to the ground.

"Stop!"

The commander stood at the top of the tank, slapped the top cover, and shouted.

"Woo woo woo ......"

The fact that the tank's engine continues to roar and stop moving does not mean that the tank stops moving.

"Over there, press over!"

The commander held up his binoculars, saw the new mounds of dirt, and shouted for the tank to press over.

The infantry is still behind, and the tank just rushes headlong into the woods, which is not in line with the combat code, it is no different from sending it to death, and a qualified commander will not let his tank fall into a Jedi.

"Woo woo woo ......"

More than one tank saw these mounds, many tanks saw it, and in the roar of the engine, right under the noses of the devils in the woods, the tanks pressed up and directly crushed those mounds, allowing the tanks to rise and fall in the depressions, and the devils under the fortifications didn't even have time to detonate, they were directly crushed, and those who did not die were buried alive in the bunkers that had just been dug.

When the infantry followed, they saw that the tanks were repeatedly crushing the mounds along the edge of the forest, and after looking at the sky, they entered the forest at this time, and the line of sight was less than five meters, and there were no conditions for attacking, and the officers issued an order to stop the attack, and the infantry and tanks retreated.

"Division commander, tomorrow we will definitely be able to occupy Walatang, the Japanese army has no defense line to hold."

After the troops were collected, the chief of staff did not pay attention to the fourth line of defense, and with the support of artillery and aircraft, the small forest could no longer provide cover for Waratang.

"Humph!"

"Send a telegram to Luo Xianzhi and ask them to shell Walatang along the road."

Liao Yaoxiang has other considerations, he can't let the devil repair comfortably, he wants to let the devil spend the night in fear, and prepare for the attack during the day tomorrow.

"Boom ......"

After dark, the shelling began, and the shells fell near Walatang, which directly destroyed Nagashi Daisa's plan to hold on for another day, and ordered a retreat overnight.

"Boom ......"

The 105 howitzers were shelled along the road, and their shells landed irregularly at all, and as a result, the blind cat touched the dead mouse, and during the second shelling, the retreating devils paid heavy casualties.

“”

The ensuing battle was generally like this, the new 22nd Division was in fierce fighting almost every day, and it was only possible to advance a little bit by eating the Japanese army.

The Japanese retreated, and the new 22nd Division successfully occupied Waratang, and there was no plan to stay, they continued to attack the target in front, Maraka.

Maragau is a highland where the Japanese army used the terrain to build a large number of fortifications, and because of the natural caves, they could even use the natural caves and tunnels to strengthen the fortifications in all aspects at will.

"Boom ......"

The bombardment of heavy artillery and aerial bombs had no effect, and on the first day, the new 22nd Division and the assault team attacked for half a day, without any progress, and the new 22nd Division had to stop at Maragau, and Liao Yaoxiang needed a new plan to break through the position in front of him.

When Liao Yaoxiang's new 22nd Division was fighting hard, Sun Liren's new 38th Division on the other side of the Menggong River was also advancing with difficulty, compared with the Japanese army attacked by the new 22nd Division, the new 38th Division was relatively weak in the face of the enemy, and there was also a gap in the solidity of field fortifications. This is mainly on the other side of the Menggong River, there are no very strategically important strongholds, and almost all important strongholds are in the direction of attack of the new 22nd Division south of the Menggong River. Even so, due to the stubborn defense of the Japanese army, Sun Liren's command of the new 38th Division did not go well. They fought hard until now, and only then did they occupy the two strongholds of Da Nong Yang and Mang Binh, and opened up the road from Kelao Burma to Da Nong Yang and Mang Binh, surpassing the new 22nd Division by about 30 kilometers; It does not play the role of interspersing at all.

At this time, it is already May 8, and the light rain has already begun, and it is estimated that the rainy season in Myanmar is about to arrive. As a rule of thumb, the first month of the rainy season will be relatively light and you will be able to barely fight. After that, there will be a downpour everywhere, the silt on the roads will be waist-high, and all the forest streams will become large rivers, and it will be impossible to march at all. If we don't get a breakthrough in the short term, we will probably have to wait until after the rainy season.

In view of this, Zheng Dongguo specially strengthened the frontal offensive force, and assigned the 149th Regiment of Liao Yaoxiang's 50th Division to Liao Yaoxiang to strengthen the frontal attack.

Sun Liren, who was north of the Menggong River, did not think so, he felt that the current offensive in the Menggong River Valley could not continue like this, and if the current progress was followed, there would be no way to get the defenders of Myitkyina out, and they could only find another direction.
