Facing the broken Chinese position that was once again trembling in artillery fire, the 6th Division not only showed its sharpest sword.

Its 13th Infantry Regiment even set its command center to only 600 meters away from Songjiang City, which is a range that heavy machine guns can easily shoot.

Six of the 10 infantry cannons belonging to the wing were closer to the field fortifications of only 500 meters. Although this distance is within the range of the Chinese mortar, the precise strike on the fortifications on the city wall can almost guarantee the accuracy of 2 meters, and it is like using artillery to fit a bayonet.

This shows how the Sixth Division's determination to complete the battle.

Of course, this may have a more direct relationship with Tanisuo's arrival at the brigade command center 1,000 away.

The division commander is 1,000 meters away. Can you, the colonel leader, be a little further behind?

But no matter what, the Japanese army with strict hierarchy was ready to take down the outer city wall position of Songjiang with the toughest attitude.

As the leader of the sharpest sword that Tani Shouo showed, the captain of the 6th Infantry Brigade of the 13th Infantry Corps, Dae-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Gao-Ga

"Your lords, the division commander is watching us behind us, hoping that you will live up to the reputation of my 13th Infantry Regiment and fight for the enemy bravely!

The division commander also promised that the first infantry squadron to plant our army flag on the Songjiang city wall will be rewarded without hesitation. At the same time, the wealth and goods in the city will be shared by you." Shen Wuxi Dahuang, who mobilized the four infantry squadrons that were about to be put into battle, showed cruelty in his eyes. "Tonight is a grand festival for all the officers and soldiers of my 6th Division."

Having a Japanese general whose surname sounds good and whose name is very second is not only a verbal skill, but also inspires his subordinates to practice it himself.

Looking at the city wall hundreds of meters away, hundreds of meters away, the Japanese chief took off his military top, threw down his white gloves with a show-off kit, and only a white shirt. He had a white cloth strip wrapped around his head. He looked like a dead father, pulled out his command knife, and roared, "Kill the cock!"

“Onboard!”

"Long live the empire!"

.........

Like their commanders, countless Japanese soldiers who were wrapped in white cloth strips and planned to wear mourning for their fathers in advance shouted slogans, and rushed towards the broken city wall 400 meters away like a tide.

Behind them and on both wings, in the field fortifications carefully constructed by the Japanese army, more than 30 heavy machine guns roared. That was the 13th Infantry Regiment gathered the heavy machine gun squadrons of three infantry brigades under their command.

In fact, even the Japanese army itself should rarely use heavy machine gun clusters of this size to carry out cover and shoot.

The noise caused by dozens of machine guns firing at the same time made the Japanese colonel who was still 200 meters away frown. As the top commander on the front line, he could not wear earplugs like Japanese shooters.

The heavy machine gun bullets that raised the muzzle hit the city wall like raindrops. The blue bricks were peeled off by artillery fire and exposed a large amount of loess layer. The walls were instantly splashed, and then they merged with the smoke caused by the Japanese artillery fire that had just been raging.

The Japanese army's 75 mountain field artillery and 105 howitzer artillery fire began to extend inward with the attack of the infantry.

After the Battle of Cangcheng, the Japanese army also learned lessons and gained experience. The Chinese often left a small number of troops on the position, and their main troops were left in the bullet-proof hole behind the position, and they waited until their infantry attacked before entering the position again.

The Japanese who learned about this also adjusted their tactics and extended artillery fire, not directly bombarding the positions to be attacked, but attacking the rear of the Chinese positions, which could not only prevent the main Chinese troops from entering the positions, but also use this to kill and injure the Chinese people.

This move is indeed very poisonous.

Unfortunately, the American cowboys are much smarter than them more than ten years later. This tactic has long been used badly, and Chinese soldiers who have also learned lessons have also come up with solutions.

From the beginning, Tang Dao ordered the excavation of trenches from the air raid shelter to the main position of the city wall. The trenches that are 2 meters deep are either to prepare for street fighting or to avoid the Japanese army from playing this trick.

75-caliber mountain cannons can attack temporary fortifications, but for such trenches, unless the shells can be accurately sent to the trench of only 1 meter and 5 meters wide, there will be almost no damage to soldiers passing through the trench.

Even if there are shells that fall into the trench with eyes, the "Z"-shaped trench that Tang Dao uses huge manpower to dig can minimize the damage caused by surging air waves.

The curved trenches are enough to weaken the strength of the air waves, without the tragedy of a shell falling from many straight trenches on the Songhu battlefield, and half of the infantry company is swept away.

The Japanese infantry were running wildly and artillery fire continued to extend backwards, but the Japanese army's attack on the city walls and fortifications was quite strong.

In addition to the rain of bullets poured from heavy machine guns, there were also grenade launchers. I don’t know how many grenade launchers began to test the city wall. Anyway, the walls of smoke kept blowing up.

From the beginning of the battle, the Japanese army was abnormal and did not even mean to test the firepower point. They were to launch a crazy attack on the 800-meter-wide city wall fortifications in the east city of Songjiang with firepower crushing.

If Tang Dao was not the main designer of the fortifications, if he hollowed out the city wall from the beginning and placed the fire point inside the city wall, then even if the fire point placed on the city was not ravaged by Japanese artillery fire, he would have suffered heavy losses in this wave of attacks.

But even so, the soldiers hiding in the firepower point inside the city wall couldn't help but lower their heads.

The Japanese army's cover firepower is too exaggerated. How big is the shooting hole? But there are still bullets shot in through the shooting hole. This does not mean how accurate the Japanese heavy machine gunners are, but it is a complete question of probability.

The more than 600 Japanese troops during the attack showed a scattered formation, which was not the kind of craze that they imagined.

The four infantry squadrons are divided into two waves, two infantry squadrons are in front and two infantry squadrons are in the back, with nearly a hundred meters apart in the middle.

The lateral distance between each soldier is at least more than 3 meters, which can avoid being swept by the machine guns of the Chinese firepower point, resulting in group casualties.

Or, it was also the 150-caliber mortar in the city that made the Japanese army afraid of it. A shell that fell off could also sweep a nightmare existence within a radius of more than ten meters.

In terms of the power of infantry fighting, the 70-caliber infantry artillery company equipped by the main force of the Japanese infantry brigade is not qualified to carry shoes with 150 mortars.

From 1,000 meters away, the 6th Infantry Brigade, which was divided into two waves, was a bit messy, but the speed of travel was extremely fast. In just four or five minutes, it attacked to the moat.

The speed of progress on the battlefield is a manifestation of firm will.

Even Tanabe Moribu, who was staying away from the tough guy Tani Shou, had to sigh in his heart. Lieutenant General Tani Shou had his strong confidence because he had such a strong command, even if the Chinese in the fortifications of the city walls did not fight back at all.

After all, not everyone can run like a group of male rabbits in spring with the rain of bullets that are about to be shot.

How awesome are the male rabbits who have spring?

When Tanabe Morito saw the captain of the major from the high-power telescope, waving his command knife to jump into the cold moat first, the Major General of the 10th Army was full of passion and urge to be a rabbit.

Really, the Imperial Warriors are so powerful. Such a strong army, what can the weak China use to resist them?

Fortunately, the Japanese major general with a rational brain instantly annihilated this kind of impulse like a middle-aged boy.

Let’s leave the heroism to those warriors who need to prove themselves! As a general, he can just take a look.

In late November, facing a moat that is more than 30 meters wide and a bullet that the enemy may shoot at any time, led by a major, "black skin and bright red blood" jumped into the river without hesitation and headed towards the target. What kind of steel will does this be?

The will is as strong as steel...

This is the definition given by Tanabe Moribu after he showed the Imperial Warriors of the Sixth Division that he saw in the high power telescope.

That is, the stainless steel thing has weight.

When I went down the river, even if I could swim, no one wanted to carry too much weight.

He was already very heavily armed, but as a result, the Japanese major general 1,000 meters away gave them a strong will.

So steel and peat! If the Japanese infantry who stepped into the moat that could flood their knees, they would definitely be a big mouth to turn around if they knew someone cursed themselves like this.

Yes, although heavy artillery exploded the river embankment in many places, the moat water, which was originally two meters deep, had already become shallow, and the shallow water at the bottom could be seen at only one glance.

Otherwise, Kumamoto boy who is not familiar with water, who is surrounded by mountains on three sides will not be stupid enough to follow his captain into the water.
Chapter completed!
