Chapter 174: Enemy!

The Japanese artillery fire continued to explode on the high ground on the side of the road, and the soldiers of the expeditionary force guarding the position were unable to raise their heads under the pressure of direct bullets and curved shells.

Until the appearance of the Sichuan Army, the tank driven by Yu Zhi rushed into the forward position first, returning fire with turrets and vehicle-mounted machine guns, and more than a dozen tanks of various kinds appeared in front of the position, forming a formation to charge the Japanese army.

A high-explosive grenade was fired from the muzzle of a tank truck and fired at a Japanese 92 heavy machine position, and after an explosion, the heavy machine gun group that had been providing fire support at the Japanese army was completely scrapped. Upon discovering the arrival of tank reinforcements from the expeditionary force, the Japanese immediately organized fire to attack the tanks, and the bullets hit the armor like hailstones, which could not have caused any damage.

Behind the tank, Zhang Lixian had already organized the soldiers to coordinate with the infantry and tan to push down the Japanese troops who had advanced to the front of the position.

The soldiers of the 117th Regiment on the position couldn't help but be stunned when they saw this, and the tank stopped and struck at the Japanese fire point, firing a volley. The light and heavy machine gun crews provided for the offensive were almost reimbursed, and the continuous fire of the Japanese troops had completely stopped, leaving only a hundred infantry to block the barbed wire of the attack before frantically destroying the positions.

For the Japanese who did not carry armor-piercing weapons, they even tried to blow up the tank with grenadiers, but that would not cause any damage at all. The heavy machine guns on the vehicles harvested the Japanese troops, and the Japanese troops, blocked by barbed wire, fell to the ground in a dull state.

Yu Zhi used the observation scope to see that the Japanese light and heavy machine gun group was almost scrapped, and pushed the propulsion lever hard, and black smoke came out of the tail of the tank and rushed towards the Japanese army.

"Our tanks! It's reinforcements, it's our tanks! ”

An officer guarding the position shouted loudly, and it took a long time for the soldiers squatting in the trench to react, and then immediately organized a counterattack and completely drove down the Japanese troops attacking the high ground.

Half an hour later, with the coordination of tanks and infantry, as well as the cooperation of the defenders on the position, the Japanese army left a small hundred corpses, and dozens of people were left to drag a dozen wounded to retreat.

The Japanese army retreated, and Yu Zhi's chariot and the soldiers led by Zhang Lixian also withdrew from the chariot and rested behind the mountain.

Chen Yu stood on the side of the road behind the mountain, instructing the medical corps to treat the wounded, and sent a signal corps to inform the troops behind that they had arrived at the position, and the rest of the personnel replenished ammunition to rest.

A colonel walked down from his position on the hill, and beside him stood several lieutenant officers, and a captain with a bandage on his shoulder stood on tiptoe to search, and then shouted to the soldiers of the first battalion of the Sichuan Regiment and the tank:

"Where's your chief?"

"I am." Chen Yu saluted the colonel and said, "Report to the commander, Chen Yu, chief of staff of the subordinate Sichuan Corps, was ordered by Deputy Chen to arrive at the position of the 117th Regiment on the Longmang Highway before 12 noon today. ”

The colonel returned the salute and said to Chen Yu with a tired face: "It's good to come, I only have one battalion left in one regiment, and one platoon left in the third battalion." I will not thank you for my great kindness, and I will give you a glass of wine after the war. ”

Chen Yu nodded: "The remaining two battalions of our department are still on the road, and the road has been bombed, so we can only reinforce on foot, a little slower." ”

"Don't say much else, I'll take someone down in an hour, and the position will be handed over to you."

Chen Yu said seriously: "Yes! ”

After a few pleasantries, the commander of the 117th Regiment took people back to their positions and began to organize a retreat. Chen Yu's side also began to organize replacement, and the tank could only be used as a turret in positional warfare, so Yu Zhi was arranged to hide behind the mountain.

This made Yu Zhi very disappointed, and finally drove the tank to catch up with the Japanese army, and now he had to squat in the back to watch the show.

"Xiao Zhang!" Chen Yu said to Zhang Lixian: "Take your people to take over the friendly positions, carry ammunition and materials, and scatter the sentry posts to prevent the Japanese attack." What are you doing standing there stupidly?

Fortified defense! Brother, your face is burned out, and your brain is burned out? ”

Zhang Lixian rolled his eyes and let his subordinates enter the position.

Half an hour later, the few remaining soldiers of the 117th Regiment had all retreated. The colonel, exhausted, led his group of four or five hundred men, as well as the wounded, out of position.

On the position, all the equipment was there, and when the 117th Regiment withdrew, only people were taken away, and materials and ammunition were not taken away. They knew that the Sichuan Army needed these few ammunitions, and Chen Yu was handing over the colonel and commander, and they needed to know the size, number, and equipment of the Japanese army on the other side.

The colonel said: "On the opposite side is the 2nd Division of the Japanese Army, and the artillery fire is very fierce, very fierce. ”

Well, to be able to let him repeat two sentences, it shows that the Japanese artillery fire is really fierce. After saying a few words, the regiment commander left, leaving the rest to a captain, and Chen Yu asked him to leave the chasing unit after a general understanding of the situation.

Not ten minutes after the withdrawal of the 117th Regiment, the signal soldier came back and told Chen Yu that the second battalion of the annoying army would arrive in about half an hour, and the rest of the troops and baggage would arrive in two hours.

Walking into the left forward headquarters, Chen Yu kicked the discarded steel helmet on the ground, picked it up and held it in his hand. He also half-crouched and used the artillery mirror to observe the Japanese positions in the distance, which was quite far away and could not be seen clearly.

On the opposite side is the second division of the Japanese army, and Chen Yu is quite concerned, just because this unit is the Sendai division that launched 918. The elite Japanese division sent this division to reinforce it, and the urgency of the Japanese army to hold Longling can be seen.

"You black man, moving ammunition boxes, running around!" Outside the headquarters, Kang Ya cursed.

Chen Yu didn't know why he went out, it turned out that the guy from Milong went to Kangya's transport baggage team, and he didn't do anything all day, wandering around. Now Kang Ya was letting the people of the baggage transport team carry the ammunition, but the guy was sitting on a sandbag with his hands in his pockets and chewing small biscuits.

"Your Grandpa Long did this for you?"

Mi Long said indifferently: "I didn't listen to death, I died, Lao Tzu is a quartermaster appointed by Ah Yi himself, do you know what a quartermaster is?" It's just an official who doesn't do anything, who is in charge of your group of people, and who sells materials for bribes when he has nothing to do. ”

"That's what Ah Yi told you?" Chen Yu said faintly in the back: "Do you know who the Japanese army on the other side is?" ”

"Who's the business to me?"

Chen Yu pressed the German-style steel helmet in his hand on the head of the dragon: "The second division of the Japanese army, 918 is their attack on Beidaying, from the northeast to the southwest. Two years ago, I was sent to the Pacific Ocean and was beaten by the Allies, and now I'm looking for you, a Northeasterner.

Maybe people think the Northeast is easy to fight, and you see you're looking for you again. ”

"A deflated calf."

The dragon suddenly stood up and looked at the forest in the distance, and the whole person looked into the distance in a daze, as if he was remembering something, and a painful expression appeared on his face. A tear trail crossed his dark face, and Mi Long quietly wiped away the tears with his shoulder, turned around and kicked Chen Yu deadly.

"What are you going to do?"

Mi Long choked up and said: "I want a machine gun, Lao Tzu wants to kill this group of Japanese devils, these bastards raised by these little girls, have the Northeast people provoked you?" I'm going to kill you, you little Japan. ”

Chen Yu patted him on the shoulder: "Continue to move the ammunition." ”

"I want a machine gun !!"

"Nope."

"I want a machine gun!"

"Nope."

Mi Long pinched Chen Yu's shoulder like crazy, and the force made Chen Yu gasp: "Give me the machine gun, give me the machine gun!" ”

"Pain, pain, pain! You always let go first, let go first, it's easy to say anything. ”
