The Milky Way is Also a Grain of Sand
Chapter 514 Attack
Sergeant Songshan Taiji was just an ordinary Japanese soldier on a gunboat. When the Japanese soldiers on land were being bombed, they had already seen some Japanese soldiers being blown to pieces and flying into the air.
When the gunboat he was on, driven by Inohara Saburo, quickly turned around and headed towards the depths of Poyang Lake, Sergeant Songshan Taiji breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he saw the Songshan go being blown to pieces. Seeing this, his heart jumped to his throat. Inohara Taiji didn't slow down; he was still accelerating, rushing towards the channel just vacated by the Songshan go.
Although the wreckage of the Songshan go was blocking the front as much as possible, it didn't affect their advance. Songshan Taiji understood: In this situation, the smartest thing to do was to rush out of the range of the Chinese army's artillery at the fastest possible speed.
Just then, for some reason, Sergeant Songshan Taiji fell off the gunboat. He could hear the Japanese soldiers on the gunboat shouting, but Inohara Saburo clearly had no intention of stopping.
The gunboats following behind them didn't plan to stop either. They still threw a lifebuoy to Songshan Taiji.
Just as Songshan Taiji swam to the lifebuoy, he heard a loud "Boom!" and then saw the gunboat he had fallen from break apart.
The group of Japanese soldiers led by Inohara Saburo, who had just refused to help, were now all in the water. The difference was that the lake water around them was all bloody.
This situation made Songshan Taiji not know whether to be happy or sad. He could only secretly rejoice at his good luck.
Captain Takashima Yuzo looked at the gunboats that had been bombed by artillery shells. The entire gunboat had fallen apart, so what was there to salvage?
Even the Japanese soldiers on the gunboats, less than fifty of them were still struggling on the lake surface, and they were often smashed into the water by shrapnel flying over suddenly, and some were even crushed into the lake by their own gunboats.
What kind of troops are these of the Chinese army? How can they be so brutal, not giving any of these Japanese devils a way out? In just a few minutes, six gunboats had already been blown apart.
"Turn around! Head for the shore! Run aground on the shore!" Captain Takashima Yuzo knew that there was no escape. He wanted to run these gunboats aground on the shore, so that maybe some of the Japanese devils could escape with their lives.
Captain Takashima Yuzo gave the order, and Captain Kinshito Shiro heard it clearly. He immediately responded to the order: "Kihata Kokaku, retreat! Retreat!"
Captain Kinshito Shiro nervously stared in the direction from which the shells were flying from the shore. He hoped that he could avoid this wave of attacks, but he also understood that this was a bit difficult.
The shells flying in the air weren't like the ones exploding on the shore, coming in large numbers. The shells hitting the gunboats always flew over one by one.
It was obvious that someone in the Chinese army was sniping. Captain Kinshito Shiro also discovered the source of the shells: It was on the distant mountain peak.
He excitedly pointed in the direction from which the shells were flying and shouted loudly, "There! They're there!" Without looking back, he ordered, "Takenouchi Kenta! Aim at that mountain peak and fire!"
It was easy to hit a mountain peak. Sergeant Takenouchi Kenta immediately started aiming. He stared at the mountain peak, but didn't know where to hit.
Just then, Sergeant Takenouchi Kenta finally spotted a flash of fire on the opposite mountain peak and shouted excitedly, "I've found them!"
Then he watched as the shell fired from there flew straight towards his gunboat. In this situation, Takenouchi Kenta had no time to react at all.
He just stared blankly as the shell cut through space, magnifying infinitely in front of his eyes, until it landed inside the gunboat he was on.
With a "Boom!" the gunboat Captain Kinshito Shiro was on exploded. This was already the seventh gunboat of the Takashima Yuzo gunboat squadron to be destroyed.
The remaining few gunboats had now all discovered the source of the shells. They were all shouting, "They're there! Fire! Fire!"
The current positions of these gunboats made it impossible for the cannons to aim at that mountain, so they were calling for fire so anxiously.
The Japanese devils on the shore were enduring the bombing while not forgetting to watch the fate of the gunboat squadron in the lake. For the Japanese devils on the shore, Takashima Yuzo's squadron was definitely the worst off.
After all, every shell sunk a gunboat. The Japanese devils of the Fukui Kotaro regiment just wanted to see if the remaining five gunboats on the lake could escape.
Now they saw that these five gunboats were not running away, but were coming back: Did they not want to live anymore?
The current Takashima Yuzo only wanted to live. He no longer had the idea of saving these gunboats. That's why he was thinking of turning the gunboats around.
Although Takashima Yuzo reacted quickly, he was ultimately not as fast as Lin Fan. Lin Fan's actions of shooting down so many planes yesterday made dealing with these twelve gunboats a piece of cake.
Again, several gunboats exploded before his eyes. Takashima Yuzo couldn't care about anything else and jumped into the lake. He didn't dare to stay on the gunboat anymore.
With him taking the lead, the twenty-odd Japanese devils on the last gunboat also followed suit, all thinking of running into the lake.
They weren't far from the shore and could swim there in a while. If they stayed on the gunboat, they would definitely die in the next second.
These Japanese devils who had seized the opportunity early had just jumped out of the water, and the gunboat was still stubbornly rushing towards the shore. The explosion didn't affect them.
Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro watched as twelve gunboats were completely annihilated in such a short time. Not a single gunboat was still floating on the lake. All of them had become wreckage, slowly sinking into the lake.
He felt his heart growing as cold as the lake water. There were still nearly a hundred Japanese devils struggling to swim towards the shore on the lake.
Takashima Yuzo was still soaking in the water. In this situation, what could Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro do? Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro loudly ordered his Japanese devils, "Save them!"
These Japanese devils were also suffering from the artillery bombardment, but since the regimental commander had given the order, Captain Kihata Daisuke immediately took action, immediately leading a hundred or so Japanese devils to the lake shore pier, and started throwing wooden boards into the water, hoping to let the Japanese devils in the lake hold onto the wooden boards and swim up.
A hundred or so Japanese devils were all crowded on the pier. Lin Fan was a very stingy person. He usually couldn't bear to use anti-aircraft shells to bomb individual Japanese devils, but in this situation, he had no choice but to take action.
With a loud "Boom!", the entire Infantry 157th Regiment was focused on the Japanese devils who had survived after jumping into the lake. They saw in horror that a shell exploded in the middle of Kihata Daisuke's squadron. The entire squadron of a hundred or so Japanese devils flew in all directions.
It wasn't that they took the initiative to fly up. These Japanese devils were all lifted up by the air waves from the shell explosion. The pier extended out a bit, and these Japanese devils all plunged into the water.
The lake water in this area was instantly dyed red. More than a hundred Japanese devils of the Kihata squadron plunged into the water, causing a wave of splashes, all of which were red.
The Japanese devils of the entire regiment discovered: So many Japanese devils had gone into the water, but not a single one was struggling, and not a single one came ashore. Even the surviving Japanese devils of the Takashima squadron who saw this scene not far away didn't dare to swim towards the pier here.
They immediately changed direction and swam to the side. The scene here was too frightening. The lake surface was full of floating Japanese corpses.
At this time, the artillery bombardment ended, and gunshots were heard in the distance. Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro knew: It must be that the Chinese army's infantry had begun to attack.
"Their artillery is so powerful, what will these infantry be like?" Thinking of this question, Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro lost confidence.
Regiment Commander Shangguan Zhiwen commanded the entire regiment to charge towards the Japanese devil's position. It was still Jing Chengxuan's 1st Company and Lu Lejia's 2nd Company coordinating the frontal attack.
The entire regiment had a total of three attack directions, and the other two attack directions also had two companies of troops charging.
Company Commander Jing Chengxuan's attack method was still the same old one. Six heavy machine guns were pushed to the front, and mortars and infantry guns began to bombard from about 500 meters away from the Japanese devil's defense line.
Just as the 12th Company's bombardment ended, the company's small guns began. The Special Operations Brigade simultaneously attacked both Donggushan and Xingzi.
This greatly surprised Nishiyama Fukutaro, the staff officer of the 101st Division stationed on Dongjishan, especially when he heard the report: The Takashima Yuzo gunboat squadron had just been completely destroyed by the Chinese army's artillery.
This was a sad message, but there was still good news: Takashima Yuzo had survived by chance. In the report, Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro said that he would definitely avenge the gunboat squadron, and he requested the staff officer to send a squadron to launch a surprise attack from behind the Chinese army.
Staff Officer Nishiyama Fukutaro had the same idea, and he also ordered Fukui Kotaro with his own idea. He also rejected Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro's request: "The Chinese army troops that have come to attack have already broken through two defense lines of Dongjishan, and the Infantry 101st Regiment is unable to send reinforcements."
The meaning of this was: Take care of yourselves!
"Has the Chinese army launched a full-scale counterattack?" Staff Officer Nishiyama Fukutaro pondered as he put down the phone. Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro had the same idea.
Regardless of whether the Chinese army had launched a full-scale counterattack, he now needed to repel this attacking Chinese army and then go to Donggushan to reinforce the staff officer.
Having made up his mind, Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro loudly ordered, "Let the Kitamura Sora artillery squadron immediately bombard the attacking troops, don't save them!"
He had already maintained the greatest vigilance against the Chinese army troops that had come to attack this time and no longer saved the shells.
After receiving the regimental commander's order, Squadron Commander Kitamura Sora immediately issued the order, "Fire!" The combat effectiveness of the Japanese devils was not to be underestimated. They had been stationed here in Xingzi for more than half a month, and the Japanese devils of the Kitamura Sora squadron had also scouted the surrounding environment.
The attack route of the Special Operations Brigade now was the bombardment area they had tested long ago. His squadron only had twelve Type 92 infantry guns. Although it had suffered some losses in the artillery bombardment just now, there were still nine cannons that could fire.
Company Commander Jing, who was charging, suddenly discovered the shells flying in the air and landing, and loudly ordered, "Scatter! Speed up and charge up."
They could only completely avoid such bombardment by rushing into the Japanese devil's position. Lin Fan, who had been paying attention to this direction from the top of the mountain, immediately discovered the artillery bombardment suffered by the attacking infantry.
He immediately ordered, "Order Company Commander Jiang to continue to maintain the bombardment of the Japanese devil's position." Lin Fan didn't rest either. Although he couldn't directly see the Japanese devil's artillery position here, he could roughly estimate their location from the direction the shells were flying from.
Lin Fan didn't fire at the Japanese devil's artillery position, but directly fired at the Japanese devil's defense line in front of the 1st Company.
The eighty-eight millimeter caliber howitzer, combined with Lin Fan's accuracy in firing, immediately stunned Captain Hosho Naoki, who had just seen his own shells land in the Special Operations Brigade's formation.
He saw that the defense line of the Okuma Ryo squadron, which was at the forefront of the incident, was hit by several shells that were as accurate as pinpoint demolition.
In the blink of an eye, not a single Japanese devil on the 100-meter-wide front was still alive. How could this battle be fought?
The steps of the 1st and 2nd Companies of the 15th Regiment, which had just been slowed down by the Japanese devil's shells, were immediately stimulated by the fierce bombardment on the Japanese devil's defense line.
Company Commander Jing loudly ordered, "Charge up!" He took the lead in charging to the front himself. They would no longer be subjected to the Japanese devil's shelling once they charged into the Japanese devil's trenches.
The Japanese devils of the Okuma Ryo squadron had just been cheering, but in the next second they were blown into the sky. On the left and right sides of the 1st and 2nd Companies' attack, there were still Japanese devils from this squadron.
They saw that the front had been broken through in just a short while. Squad Leader Kyono Tatsuya immediately commanded the entire squad to rush towards the trench that had been vacated in the middle.
He wanted to come and make up for the gap. Squad Leader Amahaitaiichi on the other side also made the same choice. The two squads each sent more than twenty people to rush towards the vacant defensive position in the middle.
Captain Hosho Naoki, who was still watching the battle in the rear, also sent out the entire reserve force. Captain Nakayama Sho, after receiving the order, immediately led the Japanese devils to charge up.
Without the interference of the Japanese devil's machine gun firepower in front, the charging speed of the 1st and 2nd Companies was much faster. Despite this, they were still not as fast as the Kyono Tatsuya squad and the Amahaitaiichi squad who were directly charging from the trenches.
Company Commander Jing watched as they were less than forty meters away from the Japanese devil's defense line and loudly ordered, "Second Platoon! Grenades!" The 1st Platoon was still scouting the situation in the pass.
The 2nd Platoon was charging at the front. More than ten grenades were thrown out in the first round, and there was no end to it. Just as the first round of grenades exploded, the second round of grenades was thrown over.
The two rounds of grenades immediately stumped the Japanese devils who had just rushed into this section of the trench. When the Japanese devils of the Kyono Tatsuya squad were able to open their eyes from the smoke and dust of the grenade explosion.
The soldiers of the 1st Company had already charged into the trench. At such a close distance, the two sides immediately engaged in a bayonet fight.
Lin Fan, who was standing 3,000 meters away, watched as a team of a hundred or so Japanese devils pounced towards the 1st and 2nd Companies. He didn't hesitate and immediately gave the team of Japanese devils two shells.
Captain Nakayama Sho had never thought that his squadron would end up like this: Two shells exploded in the middle of the Nakayama Sho squadron. After the entire squadron was blasted like this, less than thirty Japanese devils were still alive by chance.
Such a tragic scene made Captain Hosho Naoki's heart bleed. He loudly ordered, "Captain Kitamura, immediately bombard the Chinese army's artillery! Immediately!"
At this time, he couldn't care about anything else. If he didn't take down the distant Chinese army's artillery position, they wouldn't want to have a good time today.
Captain Kitamura Sora received the order, but was unable to execute it. His artillery squadron had been bombarded ever since it fired two rounds of shells.
120 mm caliber shells were falling on them. Although the rocket artillery company of the 15th Regiment didn't know the detailed location of the Japanese devil's artillery position, it was able to locate their approximate location.
Rocket bombs were originally area attacks. Anyway, they just poured firepower on the approximate location. At the beginning, the Kitamura Sora artillery squadron lost three infantry guns. Now this time, they only had three infantry guns left.
In order to preserve these last three infantry guns, Captain Kitamura Sora had already ordered a change of position. Captain Yoshimizu Hideki was leading forty or so Japanese devils, dragging three cannons in a struggle for survival amidst the artillery fire.
Captain Yoshimizu Hideki and his men had escaped more than a hundred meters from the artillery position just now. The shells they had left behind on the position were now beginning to explode.
Sergeant Kagawa Keita loudly said, "Captain's command is brilliant. Fortunately, we ran fast."
Captain Yoshimizu Hideki was also somewhat proud. If it weren't for his decisive decision to take them away, these forty or so Japanese devils around him would definitely be dead on the position now.
He said triumphantly, "If we run to the open space in front, we can fire again." He had just received an order to bombard the distant mountain peak. This was an order personally issued by the regimental commander, and he had to complete it.
Sergeant Nakatani Takuya said with a smile while vigorously dragging the cannon, "As long as we closely follow Captain Yoshimizu, we will definitely be able to complete the mission." The gratitude of the dozens of Japanese devils here to Captain Kagawa Hideki all began at this time.
Just as these Japanese devils happily believed that they had escaped danger, the sharp whistle of shells cutting through the air reached the ears of every Japanese devil.
Sergeant Nakatani Takuya blankly looked up at the shells falling from the sky, and there was no time for any action. However, Captain Yoshishihideki reacted the fastest, quickly prostrating himself on the ground, waiting for the verdict of fate.
The sound of "Rumble!" rang out, and Captain Yoshimizu Hideki, who was prostrate on the ground, felt the ground tremble. His chest and abdomen felt as if they had been rubbed by a pair of invisible big hands.
Fortunately, although the sound of shrapnel whizzing past was dense, it didn't leave anything on him. Just as Captain Yoshimizu Hideki was rejoicing so much.
Another shell fell, and four shells in a row fell near these Japanese devils. This not only blew up the last three infantry guns, but also none of the forty or so Japanese devils here survived.
What could Captain Kitamura Sora do after seeing this scene? He didn't have the realization of rushing out and dying with all the Japanese devils in the squadron.
He could only report the news of the complete destruction of all twelve infantry guns of the artillery squadron to Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro. The regimental commander, who received the report, didn't know what to do for a while.
The front line of his regiment had completely collapsed. Although he still had four squadrons to command here, the momentum of the attacking Special Operations Brigade was too fierce!
He had no choice but to request Staff Officer Nishiyama Fukutaro, "Staff Officer! Request the cavalry squadron to join the battle." The cavalry squadron was not with him, nor was it on Donggushan, but was resting in a gully on the side of Donggushan.
Donggushan was mountainous, so it was definitely not suitable for cavalry operations, but his position was flat, which was very suitable for cavalry charges.
Staff Officer Nishiyama Fukutaro immediately agreed to his request and added a special order: "After repelling the Chinese army troops, immediately send troops to reinforce Donggushan."
Staff Officer Nishiyama Fukutaro didn't tell him the predicament he was currently facing. He had already taken the Japanese devils of the 101st Division headquarters down from Donggushan.
Two infantry squadrons of the 103rd Regiment, which were still defending on Donggushan, also retreated from the top of the mountain. The 2nd Squadron was still holding on to the mountain, and not a single Japanese devil felt that there was any hope for their defense.
The attacking troops of the 2nd Regiment had already charged into the last line of defense of the Japanese devils on Dongjishan. The Akanishi Satoru squadron, which was defending here, was now fighting like trapped beasts, shouting and holding bayonets as they charged down towards the charging soldiers of the 2nd Regiment.
Captain Akanishi Satoru hoped to use such a pig-突 (sudden) tactic to defeat this Chinese army, which was also good at bayonet fighting. He had seen from the three defense lines that had collapsed just now that the team that was attacking today ultimately used bayonets to resolve the battle.
This was the way the Japanese devils liked to resolve the battle the most. They had few resources, and if they could solve the problem with bayonets, they would definitely not use guns and bullets.
The captain still had unrealistic expectations for the outcome of the battle. Sergeant Onodera Kazuo, who was listening to his order to charge, didn't have any such awareness. He only knew that he was definitely going to die this time.
A few days ago, he had managed to survive the Battle of Wanjialing with great difficulty. On that night, these Japanese devils met the Chinese army's daredevil team. Sergeant Onodera Kazuo managed to survive by pretending to be dead and falling to the ground.
It was night at that time, and it was too dark to see clearly. And after dawn, the Chinese army had already retreated. He was able to survive by chance. Although there were no broadswords in this team today.
But the bayonets in their hands were like the scythe of the god of death, and every knife didn't fall empty! Onodera Kazuo personally saw that the command sword in the hands of Squad Leader Miyamoto Tsutomu in front of him was just about to chop down when it was picked away by a Chinese army soldier who rushed up.
How much power would it take to pick away Squad Leader Miyamoto Tsutomu's commander? Anyway, Onodera Kazuo couldn't do it.
Soon Onodera Kazuo saw a section of bright bayonet exposed from behind Squad Leader Miyamoto: Squad Leader Miyamoto was finished! He was dead!
Sergeant Onodera Kazuo, who was hiding behind Squad Leader Miyamoto, had no choice but to grit his teeth and charge forward, shouting incomprehensible sentences, and stabbing forward with the bayonet in his hand.
Just as he had imagined, this shot was parried by the other party, and a great force came over, as if to shake the rifle in his hand away.
Next, Onodera Kazuo watched as the rifle on the opposite side stabbed towards his chest. He quickly parried, but he didn't expect the other party to press back the rifle he was parrying.
Onodera Kazuo heard the sound of a fracture coming from his arm, and the rifle pressed hard on his chest. Then he felt a chill, and the bayonet entered from the front chest and exited from the back.
After the 2nd Regiment occupied Donggushan, Liu Laopao didn't stop and ordered the team to continue to pursue. It's just that there were mountains everywhere here, and all they could chase were those Japanese devils who had just escaped to the mountainside.
The attack of the 15th Regiment at this time also entered a fast rhythm, and the Japanese devil's artillery squadron was suppressed and never fired a shell again.
Regiment Commander Shangguan Zhiwen had already put all ten infantry regiments into the battle, which made the already overwhelmed Japanese devil's 157th Regiment even more uncomfortable, but Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro was still persisting.
He was waiting for the cavalry squadron of Oda-jima Hisatada to come, and he believed that as long as the cavalry squadron came and charged, the Japanese devils under his command could cooperate with the cavalry to counterattack.
It was with this expectation that he didn't let the entire regiment retreat!
The cavalry squadron of Ojima Hisatada, which received the mission to attack, had already set off at this time. The valley where they were hiding was not far from Xingzi, only more than two kilometers away.
The Japanese devils of the cavalry squadron had heard the sound of artillery bombardment in both Donggushan and Xingzi just now.
They had long been prepared to attack. Donggushan was not suitable for them to fight, so these Japanese devils were very clear about which direction they should attack. It's just that they hadn't received an order, so they couldn't attack yet.
The entire Cavalry 101st Squadron had a total of 737 cavalry Japanese devils, and they still maintained strong fighting spirit and energy. This was because the 101st Division had been attacking the Chinese army's defense lines on the edge of Poyang Lake for some time, and there was no place for cavalry to use.
It could be said that seeing the battered appearance of the infantry regiment, the Japanese devils of the entire Ojima Hisatada squadron had long wanted to go to the battlefield to fight.
Sergeant Abe Byoei led his more than 50 Japanese devils at the front, but now was not the time to sprint with all his strength.
He was riding a war horse, only maintaining a fast running speed, letting the war horse slowly warm up. Sergeant Ichihara Saburo asked with a smile, "Ampoule Captain! Which Chinese army team is it today that is so bold as to dare to attack the Fukui Regiment?"
Captain Abe Byoei said with a sneer, "The Fukui Regiment suffered heavy losses in Wanjialing and has not recovered its strength to this day.
Maybe this news was known to the Chinese army guerrillas, and they came to try their luck."
Sergeant Koizumihira said with a smile, "They don't know that we are nearby. When we rush out, these Chinese army soldiers should run away."
These words immediately caused bursts of laughter throughout the squadron. The characteristic of cavalry was speed. At this time, the Chinese army team was still using rifles, firing one shot and pulling the bolt, with a very slow rate of fire. The cavalry accelerated from a position of 500 meters, and it was only when they reached a distance of 150 meters that it was time for ordinary soldiers to fire. From 150 meters to rushing in front of these soldiers, even the fastest soldiers could only fire two shots.
When the cavalry charged into the ranks of the infantry, those infantry could only become lambs to the slaughter. When the submachine gun appeared later, and the firepower of the infantry team increased exponentially, the cavalry teams of various countries disappeared all of a sudden.
There were no other reasons, just that the infantry's firepower was too strong, and the cavalry was simply unable to break through the other party's firepower network, and had already been killed almost before they rushed to the front of the position.
The Ojima Hisatada cavalry squadron, which was still happy at this time, didn't know what kind of team they were going to meet.
These Japanese devils were still imagining how to abuse this ignorant team. In more than two kilometers, these Japanese devils only spent less than ten minutes to reach the battlefield.
Squadron Commander Ojima Hisatada immediately arranged the mission: "The Aoi Byoei Company will follow me and charge from the front, the Asano Torataro Company will outflank from the left, and the Tsukamoto Taikaku Company will outflank from the right.
I believe that when we rush out from behind the Chinese army team, we will definitely be able to give them a surprise."
While it was preparing a surprise for Shangguan Zhiwen's 15th Regiment, the 15th Regiment was also preparing a surprise for this Japanese devil's cavalry squadron.
Each company of the Special Operations Brigade was in contact with walkie-talkies, and the scouts standing high and observing had already discovered the Japanese devil's cavalry squadron.
"The Japanese devils have cavalry charging over! The entire regiment of ten infantry companies all know this news."
Squadron Commander Ojima Hisachū himself took a company and launched an attack. Their war horses began to accelerate. More than two hundred war horses, a thousand hooves stamped on the ground, and the vibration that caused was truly earth-shattering.
Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro, who had been insisting, was waiting for this cavalry to appear, and ordered: "Counterattack! All counterattack!"
He was going to come to a coordinated attack from inside and outside, and two-sided attack, so that the Chinese army team that came to attack would not be able to run away.
When his regiment retreated from the battlefield of Wanjialing, there were less than three thousand Japanese devils left.
Just now, the 2nd Regiment had bombed for a while, and the infantry had broken through two lines of defense. Now there were less than two thousand Japanese devils left.
Despite this, Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro still ordered the entire army to attack. He wanted to make the attacking team unable to care about the head and the tail.
Faced with the suddenly counterattacked Japanese devils, the 15th Regiment did not fight hard with the Japanese devils this time. Each company used heavy machine guns to guard in front, and six heavy machine guns kept sweeping.
This made the Japanese devil infantry who had just rushed out of the position very uncomfortable. There were only more than a thousand Japanese devils left in the entire 157th Regiment.
The number of Japanese devils who could rush out in each direction was actually not many, only the number of a company. These Japanese devils were shot by heavy machine guns and immediately went silent.
Captain Kasetaro, who had just rushed out of the position, had to order: "Lie down! Lie down! Machine gun suppression!"
They could only pin their hopes on the cavalry team that rushed in from the outside.
Squadron Commander Ojima Hisatada watched the Special Operations Brigade, which had broken through two lines of defense of the Fukui Kotaro Regiment, and felt very happy.
They really saved the Fukui Regiment from the fire this time. It waved the command knife excitedly: "Kill the enemy!"
The Japanese devils of the Aoi Byoei Company behind him were all excited. "Kill the enemy!" These Japanese devils had not been on the battlefield for more than a month.
Their war horses had long been fattened, and these Japanese devils had long been eager to prove themselves on the battlefield.
Captain Abe Byoei waved his saber and echoed the squadron's roar, and the dozens of Japanese devils behind him were all the same.
At this time, they felt that the earth was receding behind them, and the wind around them was holding them up in flight. This feeling was really great.
This team of Japanese devils was coming for the 1st and 2nd Companies. Squadron Commander Ojima Hisatada did not divide his troops. He just divided the entire squadron into three companies, wanting to rush into the Chinese army team from three points, and then completely tear this team apart from the inside.
When he was preparing a surprise for Shangguan Zhiwen's 15th Regiment, the 15th Regiment was also preparing a surprise for the Japanese devil's cavalry squadron at this time.
Each company of the Special Operations Brigade was connected by walkie-talkies, and the scouts standing high and observing had already discovered the Japanese devil's cavalry squadron.
"The Japanese devils have cavalry charging over! All ten infantry companies in the entire regiment know this news."
The squadron leader, Ōshima Kyuchū, personally launched a charge with a company. Their warhorses began to accelerate, and the vibrations caused by more than two hundred warhorses, thousands of hooves stepping on the earth, were truly earth-shattering.
Fukui Kotaro regiment commander, who had been persisting and waiting for this cavalry to appear, ordered: "Counterattack! All counterattack!"
It was to come to a coordinated attack from the inside out, and a two-pronged attack, so that none of the attacking Chinese army troops could run away.
When his regiment retreated from the battlefield of Wanjialing, there were less than three thousand Japanese devils left.
Just now, the Second Regiment bombed it for a while, and the infantry broke through two lines of defense. Now, there were less than two thousand Japanese devils left.
Despite this, Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro still ordered the entire army to attack. It was to make the attacking team unable to care about its head and tail.
Faced with the suddenly counterattacked Japanese devils, the 15th Regiment did not fight hard with the Japanese devils this time. Each company used heavy machine guns to guard in front, and six heavy machine guns kept sweeping.
This made it very uncomfortable for the Japanese devil infantry who had just rushed out of the position. There were only more than a thousand Japanese devils left in the entire 157th Regiment.
In fact, there were not many Japanese devils who could rush out in each direction, only the number of a squadron. These Japanese devils were shot by heavy machine guns and immediately went silent.
Captain Kataro, who had just rushed out of the position, had to order: "Lie down! Lie down! Machine gun suppression!"
They can only place their hopes on the cavalry teams that rushed in from the outside.
Squadron Commander Ojima Hisatada watched the Special Operations Brigade, which had broken through two lines of defense of the Fukui Kotaro Regiment, and felt very happy.
This time, they really saved the Fukui Regiment from the fire. It waved the command knife excitedly: "Kill the enemy!"
The Japanese devils of the Aoi Byoei Company behind him were all excited. "Kill the enemy!" These Japanese devils had not been on the battlefield for more than a month.
Their war horses had long been fattened, and these Japanese devils had long been eager to prove themselves on the battlefield.
Captain Abe Byoei waved his saber and echoed the squadron's roar, and all the dozens of Japanese devils after it were the same.
At this time, they felt that the earth was receding behind them, and the wind was carrying them in flight. This feeling was really good.
This team of Japanese devils was rushing towards the 1st and 2nd Companies. Squadron Commander Ojima Hisatada did not divide his troops. He just divided the entire squadron into three companies, wanting to rush into the Chinese army team from three points, and then completely tear this team apart from the inside.
When Company Commander Jing Chengxuan of the 1st Company watched the Japanese devils rush to a position 500 meters away from his defense line, he ordered: "Heavy machine guns turn back, all light machine guns are ready!"
Captain Kataro, who had been suppressed by the heavy machine guns of the 1st and 2nd Companies and couldn't lift his head, was immediately excited and loudly ordered: "Everyone has a chance! Charge!"
Not only his infantry company was like this, but all the infantry companies of the Japanese devil's 157th Regiment discovered the opportunity at this time: The Special Operations Brigade fighters who came to attack finally turned the heavy machine guns in the direction and began to deal with the cavalry.
This was a good time for them infantry to launch a charge. Sure enough: the Chinese army team that had been rushing forward and attacking just now immediately retreated backward.
They retreated twenty or thirty meters, probably finding that if they retreated again, they would retreat under the hooves of the cavalry, and these Chinese army teams had no choice but to stop and start to resist.
Regiment Commander Fukui Kotaro greatly admired the behavior of his captains in seizing the opportunity and happily said, "They can't run away this time."
It was said that these Chinese army soldiers who came to attack could not run away.
As soon as he said this, Squadron Commander Ojima Hisatada led a cavalry team of more than two hundred Japanese devils and rushed to a distance of less than 300 meters from the defense lines of the 1st and 2nd Companies.
