Chapter 235: The Japanese Suicide Squad
The Japanese captain stood in front of the death squad and shouted:
"Warriors of the Empire, you are all the best."
"Let's charge into the enemy's position and wipe them out."
"Amaterasu will protect us. Don't be afraid. I will charge with you."
"The Emperor is on board."
After hearing the captain's words, the fanaticism in the eyes of all the Japanese suicide squad members present became even more intense, and they couldn't wait to pick up their guns and charge forward.
All the Japanese soldiers shouted frantically: "The Emperor is on board."
"The Emperor is on board."
The shout echoed across the battlefield, full of fanaticism and madness.
Seeing that the emotions had been aroused, the Japanese captain immediately drew out his command knife and swung it forward.
"Warriors of the Empire, kill the chicken for me."
He acted decisively and led the suicide squad of Japanese soldiers to charge towards the Eighth Route Army's position.
Led by the captain, more than 2000 Japanese soldiers of the suicide squad launched a frantic attack on the frontline positions.
There was only one goal in their eyes, and that was to charge into the Eighth Route Army's position.
at the same time.
Zhang Dabiao stood in the trench and saw the Japanese attack again.
"Tan dn, these little devils are really not afraid of death."
"It seems that the previous bombing has not taught them a lesson, and now they are attacking again."
"Comrades, beat them hard. Let these little devils see how powerful our regiment is."
After hearing what Zhang Dabiao said, the soldiers raised their guns and fired at the Japanese.
The sound of gunfire rang out on the battlefield like popping beans, and bullets flew towards the charging Japanese soldiers.
The Japanese soldiers in the front fell in rows on the way to charge, but the Japanese soldiers behind were not afraid at all. They stepped over the bodies of their comrades and continued to charge, as if they did not know what death was.
All the soldiers on the position were stunned when they saw this. These Japanese soldiers with white cloth tied on their heads seemed to have a buff and had no idea what death was.
Zhang Dabiao shouted loudly: "Damn, this is the Japanese suicide squad.
No wonder you are so fearless, fire with all your might, and kill these little devils."
As the order was given, all the hidden firepower points on the front line opened fire at the same time, and countless bullets flew towards the Japanese suicide squad.
The firepower poured down on the enemy like a rainstorm, making it difficult for the Japanese to advance.
Suddenly, a violent whistling sound was heard in the sky.
The soldiers on the position changed their faces when they heard the sound. The Japanese launched artillery fire again.
Zhang Dabiao shouted loudly: "Everyone, hurry up and get into the anti-gun cave, quickly."
"Tnd, these little Japanese soldiers actually fired artillery fire during the charge, and they weren't afraid of blowing up their own people. This is really crazy."
There was anger and helplessness in his voice, and he was shocked by the madness of the Japanese devils.
The soldiers on the position quickly ran into the anti-artillery caves to avoid the Japanese artillery fire.
They moved quickly, without the slightest hesitation.
The entire position was shaking. Countless explosions sounded at the front line of Daling Village. The soldiers hid in the anti-artillery caves and covered their ears tightly.
The explosion shook the earth like a landslide, making people terrified.
In the anti-artillery cave, Zhang Dabiao ordered the soldiers around him: "Comrades, after the bombing is over, immediately notify each company to withdraw to the second line of defense and abandon the first line of defense."
"Yes, Captain."
The soldiers in the anti-artillery cave responded in unison.
the other side.
The defense line of the Second Regiment where Shen Quan was located and the defense line of the Third Regiment where Duan Peng was located were also attacked by the Japanese 102nd Division.
Their defense is also facing tremendous pressure.
Compared with the frontline position in Daling Village, the Second and Third Regiments had to face far fewer Japanese invaders, and the two sides fought back and forth on the battlefield.
They stubbornly resisted the enemy's attack and demonstrated the tenacious fighting spirit of the Eighth Route Army.
The Japanese launched a fierce attack on the defense lines of the Second and Third Regiments, trying to break through the positions of the Second and Third Regiments and launch an outflanking attack on the frontline positions.
Their tactical intention was obvious, which was to try to disrupt the Eighth Route Army's defense line.
at the same time.
The soldiers of the first artillery regiment on the artillery position were also constantly firing, bombarding the attacking Japanese.
Their fire support was crucial to the entire battle.
Li Dazhu stood on the battlefield and shouted loudly:
"Comrades, fire hard!"
"Pay attention to the temperature of the barrel and keep it cool at all times. Do not allow it to explode."
He knew that the overheating of the barrel could be dangerous.
The soldiers loaded up and fought fiercely, wishing they could immediately fire all their shells into the Japanese army and kill the attacking Japanese.
They moved quickly and operated the artillery skillfully.
The battlefield was littered with shell casings. If a group had not brought out all their supplies, there would not have been enough for them to consume.
Less than an hour after the war started, the artillery regiment fired nearly 10 tons of shells, which was extremely luxurious.
If other Eighth Route Army troops saw this, they would definitely call him a prodigal.
...........
11 o'clock in the morning.
Under the cover of artillery fire, the Japanese suicide squad launched a pig-rush tactic and successfully occupied the frontier position of Daling Village.
Their frantic attack finally paid off.
Zhang Dabiao led a regiment of soldiers and quickly retreated to the second line of defense.
Hasegawa stood on the top of the hill and saw that they had taken the first line of defense, and his mood became happy.
A smug smile appeared on his face, and he was satisfied with the performance of the troops.
Although the 102nd Division lost a lot of soldiers, it was all worth it as long as they occupied the enemy's position.
His heart was filled with desire for victory.
According to his estimation, the Eighth Route Army fired thousands of artillery shells in just one or two hours. In his opinion, the Eighth Route Army's artillery shells should have been almost used up, and it would be the 102nd Division's turn to perform next.
There was confidence in his eyes, and he was ready to launch a more fierce attack.
Hasegawa quickly said to the adjutant beside him: "Contact other attacking forces immediately and order them to launch a fierce attack on the Eighth Route Army's position. Be sure to capture the enemy position by noon."
He decisively issued a tough order.
"Order the 116th Regiment and the Cavalry Brigade to quickly march to the rear of Daling Village and surround the Eighth Route Army troops in front of them."
"Hai."
After receiving the order, the Japanese adjutant immediately turned around and went down to convey it.
He moved quickly, not daring to delay for even a moment.
Hasegawa looked at the Eighth Route Army position in the distance and murmured, "Damn the main force of the Independent Column, I must wipe you all out and let you see how powerful the Imperial Army is."
For this encirclement operation, Hasegawa specifically requested the air force to launch an air strike on the Eighth Route Army artillery. As long as the Eighth Route Army artillery was destroyed, their chances of winning would be greatly increased.
He was well aware of the importance of air power and wanted to use the advantages of aviation to win the battle.
