The Japanese army had complete defensive measures in the tunnels. As long as they were not unlucky enough to be hit by shrapnel or were helpless at the shooting holes, it was basically difficult to kill them.

They built concave walls on both sides of the shooting hole to prevent shrapnel and bullets from damaging the inside.

"Forty-three firepower points are distributed here, here and here. We have roughly destroyed some of them now, but the Japanese army is repairing them very quickly. According to the information we have obtained, it only takes more than half an hour for the Japanese army to defeat them. Move people into the damaged fortifications to continue the resistance..."

Xue Wen drew dots on the sand table and said: "Here, and this area, the two sides are at angles to each other." "Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster! If we want to fight one side, the other side will They can attack us from the side. And this area, this is a point. The fortifications they built here can be surrounded on three sides and can provide support to various ministries at any time..."

There is no indestructible fortification on this planet, and any fortification can be breached. All that is needed is strength and patience. You need to find out the firepower ratio and troop deployment of the opponent's fortifications, and then pull them out one by one. .

If there are enough shijiān, this is the most typical water mill. Unfortunately, what the Sixth Army lacks most now is shijiān. Under the forced order of the commander-in-chief, the Sixth Army must win the third place within three days. Second line of defense.

And now it is the evening of the next day, which means that the time specified by the Commander-in-Chief will be reached after one more day and night.

Now, the entire Sixth Army is carefully calculating Ziji's plan. From ten o'clock in the morning to five o'clock in the afternoon, it will be a full seven hours of non-stop attack. The Sixth Army, with the assistance of the air force and armored forces, has roughly figured out the plan. The status of the entire defensive position of the Japanese army.

"Old Ren, come and see! This is the weak link in the Japanese army's defense." Xue Wen kept comparing firepower. After reporting, he pointed the baton in his hand at a certain Japanese defense stronghold and said: "We Point B of the plan can be attacked from here."

"And point a is set here. This is also the most ferocious difāng we fought today. And here, here is point c. It is stronger than point b, but weaker than point a. It is just right. The point between point b and point a is the key point for transporting troops between the two sides."

Ren Wenbin frowned while reading the battle report and kept gesticulating on the sand table. The staff officers and division commanders beside him paused and stared. The plan was roughly determined, but the point of attack and the wave of attacks still needed further work. Adjustment.

After a while, Ren Wenbin put down the battle report: "I think it's OK. Let's just follow the plan. As long as we can kill him, I'll see how his little devil can beat me!"

With that said, Ren Wenbin turned around and shouted: "Order! Liao Bin of the 16th Division is responsible for the attack at point A. Your division's artillery must be fully activated. Don't save me the artillery shells! The Armored Division will dispatch a battalion to assist your attack. Be sure to If you want to hit me, it will hurt the Japanese army!"

"Yes!!" Liao Bin, commander of the 16th Division, responded loudly to Ren Wenbin.

"Jiao Hua Department of the 17th Division, your department is responsible for the attack at point b. Yiyàng, I have asked people from the Armored Division to send you a battalion to assist. Remember, give me a hard beating!"

"Yes!!" Jiao Hua, commander of the 17th Division, responded loudly, then gave a military salute and turned to leave.

At this moment, Ren Wenbin patted Su Haoxuan, the commander of the 18th Division who had been silent, and said, "Haoxuan, have you got everything?!"

"We have received it all, we can launch an attack at any time!" Su Haoxuan is the son of Su Zongzhe, Chief of General Staff of the National Defense Forces of the United Government. After these years of experience, this second lieutenant platoon leader Yijing, who was once involved in disaster relief, has grown into today's main division commander.

His excellent performance on the Korean battlefield earned him a place to enter the National Defense University for further study. He was subsequently admitted to the National Defense University and graduated, and made new contributions on the Tianjin battlefield.

He then transferred to the Sixth Army of the Second Army and was honored as the commander of the Eighteenth Division. The experience of iron and blood gave this man who was less than thirty years old a different meaning.

"You have a very heavy task this time. It can be said that the success or failure of our battle depends on your performance." Ren Wenbin patted Su Haoxuan on the shoulder and said: "When you get on the battlefield, don't lose your father's face. You have to know.

, many people in the entire National Defense Force are watching you!"

Su Haoxuan's eyes turned red, and he gritted his teeth and nodded.

Ever since he joined the army, those questioning eyes have never left. Because his father is the Chief of General Staff of the National Defense Forces, he has to do a better job than others to respond to those questioning voices.

To this day, these businesses have all disappeared. For fighting on the Korean battlefield, Su Haoxuan won two second-class military medals and one first-class military medal.

At the same time, there were three second-class collective merits and one first-class collective merit. These hard-fought results cannot be questioned by anyone.

Perhaps because of his father's status, there were almost too many people who were willing to let him fight in the most difficult battles. Even those few times, Su Haoxuan only got the opportunity by writing a bloody letter and calling the headquarters to request.

"Commander, I am very grateful that you are willing to give me this opportunity." Su Haoxuan took a deep breath and said, "I know you are under a lot of pressure, but please don't worry! Haoxuan will never let you down.

Entrusted!"

On the Japanese army's position, the Japanese troops on the position finally breathed a sigh of relief after the National Defense Forces stopped attacking. A whole day's attack made the Japanese troops on the position exhausted.

The troops of the National Defense Force were still repairing in the shihoujinháng area covered by artillery fire, but the Japanese troops on the position were directly facing a full seven hours of non-stop attack.

Many people's shoulders were numb from the impact, and most Japanese soldiers already had a "buzzing..." sound in their ears.

These are the sequelae of long-term shelling and bombing. Screams and wailings were heard in the fortifications. Indeed, the losses of the Japanese army were not huge.

But it was enough to make them suffer. Those splashing shrapnel and the 20mm cannon are not easy to tolerate. Basically, if they are hit by the bomb, they will be destroyed directly. Even if they are scratched, the whole piece will not fall off wherever they are scratched.

The seven-hour battle resulted in the loss of more than one brigade of Japanese troops in the fortifications. More than 4,000 people were killed or wounded, of which more than 1,000 were directly killed.

What was saved was either a broken arm or a leg, or a big hole in the stomach. The intestines and internal organs were mixed with blood, which filled the entire fortification with a disgusting smell.

The Wehrmacht stopped its offensive, so the Japanese army took advantage of this opportunity to replenish ammunition and food to the forward positions and transport the wounded down at the same time.

Although the attack was stopped, the Wehrmacht fighter planes were still circling in the sky. From time to time, they would swoop down and use their cannons and airborne machine guns to shoot at the Japanese troops who were trying to transport ammunition, food and wounded soldiers.

Fortunately, there were many bunkers, bunkers and trenches between the second-line and third-line positions. With the help of these cover, the Japanese army finally transported most of the wounded soldiers out.

"The Yijing has confirmed that the firepower of the third-line position of the gang has been established." Xue Wen wrote on the map and said without raising his head: "The army's artillery is ready, and they will give us two hours when the time comes.

fire support."

"As long as we build a good position within two hours, we can block the counterattack of those gangsters." Ren Wenbin also raised his head and kept writing and drawing on the map.

"I'm a little confused. That bastard Su Haoxuan made shime with too much chili noodles?! We are going to fight, not for an outing." As he said this, Ren Wenbin raised his head with a lot of confusion on his face.

"If it weren't for the taste of the Sichuan guys in our army, they wouldn't even buy it. Just nàmeyidiǎn, this kid took it all. I asked him what he was doing and didn't say anything."

Xue Wen chuckled and said nothing. He continued to write and draw on the map. After a while, he raised his hand and looked at his watch and said: "The war is almost done. Let the soldiers eat first!"

Ren Wenbin nodded. He put down his paper and pen and walked out of the headquarters with Xue Wen. The 16th and 17th divisions all gathered together.

Today's battle during the day consisted of three divisions each sending out a regiment to fight in uninterrupted turns, so the entire army did not appear tired now.

The order was given to them, and everyone knew that they were going to make shime today. The cooking team prepared a large pot of pork stewed with vermicelli. The oily pork was covered with oil and water, which made people salivate.

A group of men were holding bowls of sea food and eating in the tunnel. They were not in a military camp, but on the battlefield. So I am very particular about nàme.

In the temporary office of the Sixth Army Staff Headquarters, all three division commanders and nine regiment commanders of the entire Sixth Army gathered. In front of them was a pot of pork stewed vermicelli.

The only difference is that there is a bowl of wine in front of each of them. This is the habit of the Second Army. Before going out for the expedition, the entire army division and regimental commander will drink such a bowl of Zhuangxing wine in the army headquarters.

Drinking this bowl of wine means that in this battle, you will either win the position or die on the position. You can take the third way.

"It's getting late, let's drink this bowl of wine. The chief of staff and I will celebrate in advance for everyone!" Ren Wenbin picked up the wine bowl, looked at these men and said solemnly: "We have conquered Shanghai, I will invite you again

You guys have a big drink! Do it!!”

"Fuck!!" If there were no unnecessary words, the three division commanders and nine regiment commanders picked up the wine bowls and drank it all in one gulp. The extremely spicy Shao Dao Zi was really like a burning red knife that cut from the throat to the stomach.

inside.

It was so hot that people couldn't help but blush immediately. After these men finished the bowl of wine, they began to take big mouthfuls of the pork vermicelli in the basin.

Not long after, the pots of pork stewed vermicelli, five barrels of white rice, and more than thirty meat buns were all swept away. The men of the National Defense Force have always had the habit of wasting food.

How much they can eat is how much they can eat. This habit was taught to them by victims who had experienced famine, and who were crying for food in floods.

Don't waste any yidiǎn food, even a tiny bit of it is hard-earned.

After finishing the last bit of soup with the rice, the men put down the clean basins and stood up together. They respectfully performed a military salute to Ziji's military commander and chief of staff, before Ren Wenbin and Xue Wen

After returning the gift, he walked out of the headquarters without saying a word.

The night was so peaceful. In the night, the three divisions of the Sixth Army began to slowly approach the planned destination. There was not a trace of moonlight or starlight throughout the night, and it was so dark that one could not see his fingers.

"Boom, boom, boom...Boom! Boom! Boom..." At half past midnight, the 16th Division launched the attack first. Under the shelling of the artillery regiment directly under the division, the Japanese army panicked and began to fight.

The light and dark sentries set up by the Japanese troops on the position were like fallen leaves under a thunderstorm in the artillery fire. They could only pray that the artillery shells would not fall on their heads.

After the rumbling artillery bombardment for more than half an hour, the 16th Division began to attack the Japanese positions under the cover of the tank battalion.

The sound of the tracks rolling "Kerala..." was crushing in the hearts of the Japanese army. The Japanese artillery fire at night did not provide much support due to the problem of shooting range and vision, so the Japanese army fell into a bitter battle as soon as the war started.

However, the division commander inside the Japanese fortifications was very calm. He has not yet called for support. Instead, he continued to direct his subordinates to tunnels, dark trenches and the passages of chain bunkers to enter various shooting points.

At the same time, he ordered all the artillery in his hands to be fired flatly without any aiming.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..." The sound of gunfire suddenly resounded throughout the entire position, but Shunroku Hata, who was in charge of the third-line position in person, was not very worried.

This was not the first time that the National Defense Forces had carried out a night attack, but the intensity of the attack this time was relatively greater. Shunroku Hata believed that the improved second-line position nénggou would be able to support it.

"Your Excellency, Commander, do we want to provide some support to the second-line positions?!" Harem Chun, Chief of General Staff of the Chinese Expeditionary Forces, said with some worry: "The Chinese troops have dispatched tank troops. I'm worried..."

"Harem, it's not time to send reinforcements yet." Shunroku Hata waved his hand and said: "I believe that the National Defense Forces are stupid. They will attack even though they have suffered huge losses on the front line. And they should also know that such an attack might be successful.

It caused us a certain amount of casualties, but it was still not enough to win the position."

As he said that, Shunroku Hata sneered and said: "During the day, I received a telegram from the second-line position saying that the National Defense Forces had launched a seven-hour offensive. I knew that they should be conducting a fire test."

"They are trying to find our firepower points and then pull them out one by one. Believe me, this attack is very simple." After saying that, Shunroku Hata paused and said to Ziji's chief of staff: "Harem, did you find out?

Doesn’t it seem that the artillery fire of the National Defense Force was fierce during the day? Obviously, this is much worse than the artillery fire during the day.”

Harem Jun heard this and thought about it carefully. It was indeed the case. Seeing that Harem Jun remained silent, Hata Shunroku smiled and said: "Believe me, their main attack direction may not be here. Ruguo, we easily mobilized our troops and fell into their trap."

It’s a plan.”

"The current situation of the position is the best. Once we easily withdraw our troops, the defense will be weak. At the end of the day, they will use larger forces to attack our weak points, tear open the openings, and then implement a breakthrough and counter-encirclement."

As he said that, Shunroku Hata paused and said, "I can't be easily fooled!"

But while they were talking, the 16th Division of the second-line position, with the support of a tank battalion, rushed to the Japanese position. Facing the constant machine gun fire and artillery fire, the National Defense Forces also set up their own light and heavy firepower and began to carry out the attack.

Cover and surprise.

"Boom, boom, boom..." This is the roar of the 14.5mm anti-aircraft machine gun. The twin 14.5mm anti-aircraft machine guns have now become the enhanced firepower of the 16th Division.

Although this kind of machine gun is a bit heavier, it is really easy to use on the battlefield. A box of bullets is swept over, and basically no one is left alive. It has strong penetrating power, strong striking power, and a fast rate of fire!

As long as any Japanese machine gun or artillery shows up, they will definitely be greeted by crazy fire from the 14.5mm anti-aircraft machine gun. The advantage of covering the firepower is that no matter how small the shooting hole is, dozens of bullets will be poured into it.

Any idiot can imagine the consequences of these 14.5mm caliber bullets hitting the fortifications. Basically, the faces and corpses of Japanese soldiers operating guns and artillery could not be found intact.

"Boom, boom, boom..." Of course, these twin machine guns encountered strong resistance from the Japanese army because of their huge weapons. As long as the firelight was exposed, the Japanese army would try to destroy these machine guns with even more crazy firepower.
