Chapter 268 Lifeline

Of course, the more than 400 Japanese who did not enter the shelling area were not vegetarians.

As soon as the gunshots on the Liaodong Army's positions rang, they began to counterattack based on their experience and the direction of the gunshots.

At the same time, these more than 400 Japanese soldiers rushed to the Liaodong Army's position under the cover of gunpowder, preparing to kill to the mountainside in the shortest time.

At the Liaodong Army Command, people saw that the soldiers of the Fifth Regiment were constantly hit by bullets shot out by the Japanese and fell into the trenches.

The remaining 400 Japanese soldiers were approaching the fifth regiment's position under the cover of gunpowder smoke.

It was about to rush through the shelling area.

Although Yang Xingguo's face was full of helplessness, he still ordered very firmly: "Seven or eight artillery positions, the old rules, start shelling and smashing the Japanese's attack on us..."

Two mountain artillery companies and a fifth regiment with almost no losses easily repelled the Japanese's new round of attack.

More than 800 Japanese soldiers finally retreated alive, and there were not even people next time.

Of course, the Liaodong Army suffered heavy losses.

Five mountain cannons were in company with thirty mountain cannons, and in the end, only one mountain cannon could escape the Japanese retaliatory artillery attack.

As for the Fifth Regiment, those who died in battle and those who were seriously injured, there were more than 480 people.

For Yang Xingguo, the price he paid was heavy, but the whole effort was worth it.

After all, the Japanese fell more than 700 people in front of the position again.

However, for the leader of the Japanese division, this result was something he could not accept no matter what.

An attack that was hard-working, not only failed, but also lost another team...

So, as soon as the battle ended, the commander of the Japanese division began to curse at the Liaodong Army position.

But no matter how scolding is, the problem still needs to be solved.

Soon, the chief of staff of the division raised the problem and asked the division commander who was in a much better mood after cursing.

"The Liaodong Army is really too cunning. It doesn't even fire. The division commander, if the Liaodong Army defenders fired from the beginning in the attack just now, with the combat effectiveness of the Liaodong Army defenders, they will suffer heavy losses before their artillery raids begin. They will never have the strength to continue to block our subsequent offensive forces... "" "Grand Commander, how can we fight next, please make clear..."

The commander of the Japanese division quickly shot out two sharp edges and replied: "There was no good idea...but your words reminded me..."

"Since the Liaodong Army defenders are not very good in combat and their artillery fire raids cannot last long. Then let's slowly endure with the Liaodong Army..."

"The Liaodong Army has limited military strength and equipment. It won't take long to survive, and we can endure their limited strength. At that time, we may not be able to fight the Liaodong Army in a decisive battle. Here, we can eliminate the main force of the Liaodong Army."

Speaking of this, the commander of the Japanese Division actually showed a hint of regret on his face and said to the Chief of Staff.

"I was too anxious. Since I entered Liaozhong, I was determined to enter the commander of the Liaodong Army. I ignored a lot of things... If we had done this since the first attack, the soldiers might not have suffered such great losses..."

The Chief of Staff replied thoughtfully: "Second Commander, I seem to understand..."

"Please give an order immediately. This time, we must defeat the Liaodong Army and destroy them..."

"Yoxi... not only needs to destroy them, but also needs to destroy them at the minimum cost..." The commander of the Japanese division said affirmatively without thinking.

Then, he ordered with a serious tone: "Chief of Staff, from now on, one squadron and one squadron will launch an attack... In order to reduce the killing of the Liaodong Army's artillery raid on our offensive troops, the formation of the offensive troops must be as scattered as possible..."

Soon, a new round of attacks by the Japanese began.

Under the cover of heavy machine guns, a squadron of Japanese soldiers quickly left the offensive position and attacked the Liaodong Army's position on the mountainside.

Although the Japanese attackers only had one squadron, this squadron lined up a wider and longer offensive formation than the three or four squadrons just now.

When the dozens of Japanese rushing in front had already rushed to the front of the formation, the Japanese who landed at the last had more than 200 meters away from the mountainside position.

Faced with this new situation, Yang Xingguo's brows frowned again, and the wrinkles were deeper than the previous few times.

After only a brief contemplation, he said to Sun Lichen beside him: "The Japanese are becoming more and more cunning... They plan to use their military strength and firepower advantages to consume a large amount of our military strength and firepower..."

As soon as Yang Xingguo reminded him, Sun Lichen also reacted.

He frowned and asked Yang Xingguo: "Commander, the Japanese are too cunning... Although the offensive troops only have one squadron, their formation is too scattered. After a round of artillery fire, it will not only not play a big role, but the artillery positions will also be attacked by the Japanese with retaliatory artillery fire..."

Yang Xingguo shook his head and replied: "It's not okay to fire the artillery... If the veteran regiment is guarding the position, it may be able to block the Japanese attack. However, the two remaining veteran regiments cannot move at all."

"With the combat power of the newly formed regiment, it cannot stop the Japanese attack at all."

While speaking, gunshots of bean-like gunshots sounded from the Liaodong Army positions on the mountainside.

Four or five light machine guns and more than a thousand rifles opened fire together, and more than a dozen or twenty Japanese killed people rushed forward and turned into corpses.

However, the good luck of the fifth group is about to end at the beginning.

On the battlefield, as soon as the Japanese who lucky enough to escape the first round of bullets reacted, it was difficult for the bullets fired by the fifth regiment to hit them again.

After all, the Japanese offensive formation is very sparse, and they are constantly making dazzling avoidance actions.

More importantly, with their sophisticated tactical actions, some Japanese soldiers continued to attack forward while switching the fifth regiment with short guns.

Compared with the same as more than 70% of the recruits in the Fifth Regiment used their unfamiliar shooting skills to hit moving targets.

It is obviously much easier for the Japanese to use their skillful and accurate shooting skills to hit the fifth group in the trenches and expose half of their body to fix the target.

Soon, the fifth regiment began to suffer casualties.

As the Japanese got closer to the mountainside position, the casualties of the Fifth Regiment became increasingly serious.

However, there were very few casualties in the Japanese offensive troops.

After a squadron of more than 100 Japanese soldiers rushed into the artillery area, there were still seventy or eighty Japanese soldiers left...

Seeing this, Chief of Staff Sun Lichen couldn't help but remind him.

"Commander. You must use artillery. If you don't use artillery, at least fifty or sixty Japanese people will rush into our position..."

"Most of the Fifth Regiment are recruits, and the Japanese have fifty or sixty masters of assassination. Even if they cannot defeat the Fifth Regiment, they can ruin the Fifth Regiment and lose their combat effectiveness. If they are not done well, they may collapse directly on the battlefield."

At this time, Yang Xingguo's new also reached his throat, and his hands were clenched with fists because of their tension.

As soon as the Chief of Staff finished speaking, Yang Xingguo couldn't help but curse: "****'s Japanese devils, this is blocking our lifeline..."
