The Milky Way is Also a Grain of Sand

Chapter 301 Night Raid on the Nakayama Shū Yū Brigade

The Sichuan Army, withdrawing from Xiangcheng today, witnessed an exotic scene.

Three Japanese planes in the sky were engaged in a dogfight.

Strictly speaking, it was three planes produced by the Japanese that were fighting.

One of the planes had been circling in the air for more than an hour.

The plane with a tiger painted on its belly bravely charged towards the two Japanese planes that had just flown in from the north.

From the ground, it was clear that the Tiger plane opened fire first.

It had already shot the Japanese fighter plane, causing it to emit smoke.

Fujiyama Sota had never imagined that there would still be an air battle in the skies over Central China at this time.

Completely unprepared, his plane was hit in the first encounter.

From the current situation, although the damage to the plane was not severe, it was extremely humiliating.

Now, he had already missed the best time and position for combat.

He could only place his hopes on Uehara Akiyoshi.

Although Uehara Akiyoshi was flying a reconnaissance plane, he was no slouch in aerial combat.

Without Fujiyama Sota's reminder, he was already climbing and turning, preparing to fire on the National Revolutionary Army plane disguised in Japanese markings.

However, Uehara Akiyoshi could only prepare for now.

Planes of this era were not fast in either turning or climbing.

Similarly, Mao Wenxing's movements were not fast either.

By the time he managed to turn his direction, the Japanese plane, which had just been hit by hundreds of his bullets, seemed to have been resurrected with full health.

It climbed again and chased after him.

The other plane had disappeared.

Mao Wenxing certainly knew that the plane could not have been scared away.

It was likely hiding somewhere, looking for an opportunity to take a bite out of him.

Now was the time to go back!

From the ground, it looked like the Tiger plane was flying in front, with two planes chasing behind.

Mao Wenxing began to call for help, "Anti-aircraft platoon! Anti-aircraft platoon! I'm being chased by two Japanese planes.

They're coming from the north, heading towards you."

"Roger! We're ready!" the soldiers of An Ping's platoon immediately reported.

Lin Fan looked at the sky to the north and soon saw three planes.

"Ask Mao Wenxing if he's flying in the lead." From this distance, Lin Fan couldn't be sure which plane Mao Wenxing was flying.

Mao Wenxing certainly knew the brigade commander's divine marksmanship, but he couldn't be sure if he was in the lead.

After all, he didn't know where one of the Japanese planes was.

Lin Fan immediately said, "Order Mao Wenxing to dive immediately towards the ground.

Prepare to land.

He'll be the first one to dive."

The three planes in the air battle would never dive towards the ground under normal circumstances.

Their dives were only from higher to lower planes.

Upon receiving the order, Mao Wenxing immediately dived towards the temporary runway west of the city.

Fujiyama Sota and Uehara Akiyoshi, the two Japanese pilots, saw that they were about to catch up.

The other party suddenly dived towards the runway on the ground, intending to land.

Fujiyama Sota finally felt a sense of elation: this pilot was courting death by being chased.

Did he think he wouldn't be attacked if he landed?

He immediately began to dive towards Mao Wenxing at low altitude.

Watching the plane that was about to land, Lin Fan identified his own man.

He immediately began to fire at the closest fighter plane.

The reconnaissance plane piloted by Uehara Akiyoshi was not as maneuverable as the fighter plane piloted by Fujiyama Sota.

He was chasing behind Fujiyama Sota's fighter plane, watching a shell fly towards them with a red trail.

It accurately and ruthlessly struck Fujiyama Sota's plane.

It instantly blew up the plane in front, scattering it in the air.

Startled, Uehara Akiyoshi accelerated and climbed without hesitation.

He wanted to leave this place, far away from Tengxian.

As for the plane that had already landed and was taxiing on the runway.

Uehara Akiyoshi didn't want to attack it at all.

Although attacking that plane now could be said to be a sure thing.

After all, a plane that had already landed would not have much room to move.

Uehara Akiyoshi had many thoughts, but few options.

Before its nose could change position and while it was still relentlessly diving downwards.

It was greeted by the second shell fired by Lin Fan.

An Ping's anti-aircraft platoon immediately sent people down to check if Mao Wenxing was injured.

Mao Wenxing, who had gotten out of the plane, looked at the runway that had only been cleared at noon, now littered with plane wreckage again.

He smiled and said, "I'm fine, and the plane is fine.

The Japanese bullets didn't hit us."

The originally peaceful Tengxian resounded with gunfire again.

The Special Operations Brigade, which had shot down two Japanese planes, immediately reported the reason for the firing to the 122nd Division Headquarters:

"Two enemy planes shot down!"

Division Commander Wang Mingzhang heard the telephone report from Regiment Commander Yuan Yuanzhong, who had just withdrawn from Xiangcheng:

"There were three planes in an aerial battle over Jin Yang Mountain."

Division Commander Wang Mingzhang replied with a smile:

"Of the three planes: two Japanese planes have already been shot down.

The other plane belongs to the Special Operations Brigade and has now landed safely."

The people of Tengxian City had received two surprises today:

The airport runway they had repaired overnight, and the Special Operations Brigade that had arrived.

Having just arrived in Tengxian, they had already shot down twenty-two Japanese planes.

Many people took the initiative to send cabbage, vermicelli, chickens, ducks, and pork to the Special Operations Brigade to express their gratitude.

Gu Xiuming, on behalf of the Special Operations Brigade, constantly received the enthusiasm of the people of Tengxian and continuously expressed his gratitude to these people.

Lin Fan at this time had already organized the soldiers of the Special Operations Brigade to clear the airport runway again.

County Magistrate Zhou Tong did not receive any notification this time, but some people took the initiative to report to him:

Two more pieces of Japanese plane wreckage had fallen on the airport runway.

This time, County Magistrate Zhou took the initiative to send more than a hundred laborers to help.

Lin Fan was not stingy either, and had Gu Xiuming set up a large pot next to the runway to cook for these hundred-odd laborers.

These people who brought their own tools were already the third group to come to the airport to work.

They were already familiar with what needed to be done.

Zhu Shaoyuan, while putting a rope over the wing on the runway,

said with a smile, "How can such a heavy lump of iron fly in the sky?"

Wen Chao said, "Isn't this its wing? It must fly like a bird!

Look at the wheels under the plane over there.

Aren't they like a bird's feet? When it wants to fly, the wheels start running first.

Then it flaps its wings and takes off.

Once it's in the air, it doesn't need to flap its wings, it just glides like an eagle."

"That makes sense! Brother Wen is truly an enlightened man."

Many of the people working together were convinced by Wen Chao's explanation.

"Everyone, work hard! The officers of the Special Operations Brigade have made white rice for us.

And stir-fried pork with cabbage." Zhou Jishen shouted loudly in the crowd.

He had come with the County Magistrate in the morning.

The soldiers of the Special Operations Brigade already recognized him.

Just now, Zhou Jishen was also wondering why they were burying pots and cooking next to the runway.

Only after inquiring did he understand.

This was for the laborers, cooking food and dishes for them.

To reward these people for constantly working for the Special Operations Brigade.

Lin Fan also had Gu Xiuming open twenty cans of meat to stew with vermicelli soup.

The aroma of the canned meat spread across the runway, and this aroma traveled farther than the stir-fried pork with cabbage.

Zhu Shaoyuan asked Zhou Jishen, "Mr. Zhou! You're saying this food is all for us to eat?"

Zhou Jishen said, "Yes! I already asked about it.

I'm telling you, their rice is specially bought, the best white rice.

The meat is also good pork, only slaughtered today.

Everyone is in luck today.

I'm also benefiting from you."

Wen Chao said with a smile, "The army has been here for two months, and we've always been sending things to comfort the troops.

Today, we finally get to enjoy the army comforting the people.

What's that smell?

It's so fragrant!"

Zhou Jishen replied with a smile, "I just went to take a look.

The fragrance that's wafting over is canned meat.

The Special Operations Brigade opened a full twenty cans of meat to stew with vermicelli and cabbage."

"They're really being sincere!" Zhu Shaoyuan swallowed his saliva.

"So everyone, hurry up and work, don't save your energy.

Finish it early, eat early, and get a good night's sleep tonight.

And your strength will come back."

"Mr. Zhou is right!"

"Hurry up! Hurry up!"

"I want to go eat now."

These laborers were talking all at once.

Their enthusiasm was getting higher and higher.

Lin Fan at this time was still working hard at writing.

He had to guarantee the serialized novel in an American newspaper tens of thousands of miles away every day.

He had no choice but to work this hard.

Liu Ziqian was also often urging Lin Fan to write faster.

In order to allow Lin Fan to write with peace of mind, she also took the initiative to serve tea and water when Lin Fan was writing.

Wu Xiaobao and Zhao Long were very unhappy: if you do all the work,

what are we supposed to do?

And they also thought that Liu Ziqian had taken a liking to the brigade commander.

Little did they know that Liu Ziqian was only interested in the novel that Lin Fan was writing.

She only hated that Lin Fan couldn't write the entire novel in one day.

The first day of the Special Operations Brigade's arrival in Tengxian finally passed.

March 13th, for the Special Operations Brigade in Tengxian, was a peaceful day.

Even more peaceful than yesterday.

The Japanese planes did not come to harass Tengxian again today.

But the Japanese infantry's attack on the outer defensive positions of Tengxian was even more fierce.

The telephone lines between Jin Yang Mountain and Tengxian County were sabotaged by spies.

The armored squadron that attacked Xiangcheng yesterday was transferred to the Shiqiang and Shima Slope defense lines.

They broke through the Sichuan Army's positions in these two places in one fell swoop.

The defensive positions in this direction had to retreat to the Lizhai and Huangjiashan line.

The first outer ring of the Tengxian defense line had been completely occupied by the Japanese.

The 22nd Army Group established a second line of defense along the Lizhai, Huangjiashan, Baishishan, and Puyangshan line.

Once again became the focus of the Japanese attack.

The front line was in urgent need of reinforcements, and Division Commander Wang Mingzhang ordered the garrison at Puyangshan to transfer to Huangjiashan for defense.

At the same time, he sent a regiment from the 372nd Brigade, a reserve unit, to support Shenjing.

In this way, the strength of Tengxian County became even more empty.

Lin Fan knew that Commander Wang had dispatched troops from the city to Shenjing for support.

He took the initiative to request to send the Special Operations Company.

It was not approved.

The reality was that his forces were too small.

There was only one company, although this company was well-equipped and had strong firepower.

But Commander Wang did not think that Lin Fan and his men could play a big role on the battlefield.

Lin Fan could only obey orders and stay in the west of the city.

Only Mao Wenxing still flew into the air to observe the situation of the entire battlefield.

On March 14th, Lieutenant General Isogu finally transferred the entire 10th Division and a brigade from the 106th Division to the Tengxian battlefield.

At this time, he had a total of 33,000 Japanese troops in his hands.

At the same time, there were also two armored squadrons, two independent field artillery regiments, and two independent machine gun battalions.

This time, he was using all his strength to occupy Tengxian.

On this day, the Japanese once again intensified their attack on the second line of defense of the Sichuan Army.

This time, they assembled more than 40 tanks, more than 70 cannons, and more than 30,000 Japanese troops.

Lieutenant General Isogu originally thought that his powerful strength could break through the Sichuan Army's defense line in one fell swoop.

After a day of fierce fighting, the result disappointed him greatly.

The Sichuan Army's front line was still firmly held.

For a time, Lieutenant General Isogu felt despair.

Judging from the battlefield situation reported from the front: the weapons and equipment of the opposing team were extremely poor.

And their casualties were very high every day.

But: no matter how many casualties the opposing Sichuan Army suffered, they would fight to the death and not retreat.

This made Lieutenant General Isogu very, very uncomfortable.

He imagined that with the overwhelming force of the army, the opposing Sichuan Army would run backwards like Han Fuqu's team did some time ago.

And the weapons and equipment of this Sichuan Army team were far inferior to those of Han Fuqu's team.

However, this team with extremely poor equipment had been blocking him in Tengxian for two months.

Why was this?

At the military conference convened by Lieutenant General Isogu, Colonel Akaji Yaezo pointed to the map and suggested:

"Now is the time to implement our previous plan.

Send a team to cut in from the middle and attack Tengxian directly."

Lieutenant General Isogu had always had this plan.

It concentrated so many Japanese troops, and that was the purpose.

But now he and the officers under him had begun to hesitate.

Sending a team to cut in could take Tengxian in one fell swoop.

This was certainly good.

As long as Tengxian was captured, the Sichuan Army would still be defending in Baishishan, Zhangjiazhuang, Huangjiashan, and Lizhai outside Tengxian.

It would immediately lose its strategic significance.

But there was also a problem in the middle: "If they can't take Tengxian in one fell swoop, and the teams from the Sichuan Army's periphery return to support,

the team that cuts in will become turtles in a jar for the Sichuan Army.

There is no possibility of survival."

Colonel Akaji Yaezo said loudly: "Our army is now in the Longshan and Jiehe positions.

As long as you strengthen your offensive forces and hold back the defenders on the Sichuan Army's outer positions,

I can cut in from Jiehe and destroy their communications in the first place.

If we attack immediately, we will definitely be able to disrupt their arrangements."

Lieutenant General Isogu looked back and forth at the map for a long time.

Only then did he order: "Each unit will send a team to cut in from the side positions.

Be sure to block the Sichuan Army's road to support Tengxian.

Prevent them from returning to Tengxian County."

The plan had been set, and the next step was the specific action plan.

On the morning of March 15th, a battalion of the Japanese 10th Regiment launched a fierce attack on Jiehe.

Division Commander Wang Mingzhang urgently ordered the 372nd Brigade, which was defending Tengxian County, to support Jiehe.

Stabilize the defense line.

At noon, in order to prevent the Japanese from cutting into the left side of Tengxian,

Division Commander Wang Mingzhang ordered a battalion from the team defending Beishahe to deploy to Hongting and Gaomiao in the west of Tengxian.

The defense forces inside Tengxian County became even more empty.

On the afternoon of the 15th, Colonel Akaji Yaezo of the Japanese 10th Regiment once again intensified the attack on Jiehe.

All of this was to cover up the subsequent cut-in.

Two of the four battalions in this regiment had already been put into battle.

Still unable to break through the Jiehe position from the front.

The battle was very fierce, and both sides suffered heavy casualties.

At this moment, Colonel Akaji Yaezo suddenly ordered the other two battalions to bypass the Sichuan Army's front line and cut directly into Tengxian from the right.

At 5 p.m., the vanguard of the Japanese 10th Regiment had arrived at Longyangdian and Fenghuo, ten miles away from Tengxian.

They had bypassed the Sichuan Army's Jiehe defense line and detoured from the right side of the Beishahe defense line.

Suddenly appeared in front of Tengxian.

At this time, there were fewer than 300 combat-ready soldiers in Tengxian County.

Division Commander Wang Mingzhang urgently transferred Zhang Xuanwu's regiment of the 727th Regiment, which was defending Beishahe, back to Tengxian.

Appointed Zhang Xuanwu as the city defense commander, responsible for defending the city.

At the same time, the 266th Brigade stationed in Pingyi was also transferred back to Tengxian.

And asked Commander Sun Zhen of Lincheng for help.

Sun Zhen once again issued an order to General Wang Zhonglian of the Tang Enbo Corps.

General Wang Zhonglian once again refused on the grounds that he could only go north to fight after the entire army arrived.

Refused!

Commander Sun Zhen, who had no troops to send, could only leave a pistol company of the special service battalion on duty at the headquarters of the 22nd Army Group as guards.

All the other three infantry companies were sent to support Tengxian.

This battalion, led by Liu Zhirong, took a train overnight and arrived after dark.

Only one battalion of the 266th Brigade arrived in Tengxian after midnight.

The remaining troops were blocked by the Japanese and retreated to Lincheng.

Division Commander Wang Mingzhang counted the troops in Tengxian County.

There were a total of 3,000 people, including 500 members of the Tengxian Security Team.

There were 2,000 soldiers who could participate in the battle.

According to Mao Wenxing's aerial reconnaissance, the Japanese troops outside the city consisted of at least two infantry battalions, two independent tank squadrons, a machine gun battalion, and an artillery regiment.

The troops defending the city were obviously insufficient.

At the emergency military conference, most people believed that 2,000 people could only hold Tengxian for one day.

Rather than this, it would be better to withdraw all the troops to the outside of the city for mobile operations, so that they would have the initiative in their own hands.

Division Commander Wang Mingzhang immediately reported to Commander Sun Zhen by telephone and requested instructions.

Commander Sun Zhen said: "Chairman Chiang Kai-shek wants us to defend Tengxian City to the death.

Wait for the Tang Enbo Corps to relieve the siege.

The vanguard of Tang Enbo has reached Lincheng, and I will urge them to go north as soon as possible.

You must ensure that Tengxian City awaits reinforcements.

You can move the command post into the city to command the defense of the city. If there are not enough troops, you can transfer all the troops of the 41st Army outside the city into the county to defend and wait for reinforcements.

The outer positions of Tengxian can all be abandoned, but the county cannot be lost!"

After receiving the call, Division Commander Wang Mingzhang was determined to carry out the order.

Decided to use the entire army to defend Tengxian City to the death.

He said to Zhang Xuanwu: "Regiment Commander Zhang! You must immediately issue a proclamation to all officers and soldiers in the city that we have decided to defend Tengxian to the death.

I will be with everyone, the city will survive and we will survive, the city will fall and we will fall.

Immediately block the South and North city gates.

The East and West city gates will temporarily remain open for traffic, but they must also be prepared to be closed at any time.

Without my warrant, no one is allowed to leave the city, and those who violate this order will be executed on the spot!"

Division Commander Wang Mingzhang said to Lin Fan: "Brigade Commander Lin! You will stay in the west of the city and do not leave the city for the time being."

Lin Fan nodded in agreement.

Mao Wenxing's plane was parked outside the city, and according to Division Commander Wang Mingzhang's order, he was not allowed to leave the city either.

Lin Fan did not dwell on this matter too much.

Back at his garrison, he immediately convened a meeting of all the officers and soldiers of the Special Operations Brigade in the west of the city.

At the meeting, he reported on the problems that Tengxian was now facing.

He informed them that the Japanese had already advanced into the county and might launch an attack at any time.

At the same time, he also conveyed Division Commander Wang Mingzhang's order.

Company Commander Gu Xiuming asked: "Brigade Commander! Do you want us to send out a platoon to attack the Japanese camp at night?"

Lin Fan immediately said: "No need for a platoon, the entire infantry company will attack.

Here in the west of the city, only leave An Ping's artillery platoon to defend the city."

Gu Xiuming immediately became happy.

Lin Fan said: "I'll go with you."

"Brigade Commander! What if Commander Wang is looking for you?" An Ping asked.

Lin Fan said with a smile: "Then you find a way to stall him."

Gu Xiuming pointed to the sand table that had been built in the past few days and said:

"Brigade Commander, look: the Japanese are in the Longyang River and Madian area.

Fifteen miles away from us.

We'll arrive at the battlefield in an hour if we leave now.

Fight them for an hour, then come back."

Lin Fan nodded in agreement: "Bring the mortar shells that we made ourselves."

"Yes!" Gu Xiuming responded loudly.

The killing power of the shells made by the Special Operations Brigade was much greater, mainly because 800 iron balls were added to the shell body.

This meant that 800 more fragments were produced when the entire shell exploded.

The order was issued, and the 1st Company quickly sneaked out of the west of the city.

They headed towards the Longyang River.

Thanks to the fact that they had sent out reconnaissance squads everywhere as soon as they arrived in Tengxian.

Squad Leader Hou Junnan of the 1st Squad led the way in front.

He had traveled back and forth on the road from the west of the city to the Longyang River no less than ten times.

On this march, the entire company took all the weapons except for the Type 92 infantry gun.

An hour later, Squad Leader Hou Junnan pointed to the front and said:

"Brigade Commander! Lizhuang is ahead.

We came here yesterday morning.

There were no camps like those in front.

These must be Japanese."

Lin Fan said with a smile: "Although we are ambushing, we are not afraid of them.

Launch a flare.

See if the opposite side is Japanese or Sichuan Army.

If it's Japanese, attack, if it's Sichuan Army, just bypass them."

Three flares were launched into the air in succession.

The Japanese of the Nakayama Teyu Battalion suddenly appeared in Longyang River during the day.

Tengxian was ten miles ahead.

Battalion Commander Nakayama Teyu was also convening officers above the rank of squad leader for a military conference.

Arranging the siege matters for tomorrow.

It only had one purpose: to enter the city before the Konoe Jiro Battalion tomorrow.

While their military conference was being held and the mission was being arranged.

The outside suddenly became as bright as day!

"What's the situation?" Battalion Commander Nakayama Teyu asked loudly.

Squad Leader Masuyama Yusei was on duty outside the camp with a dozen Japanese soldiers.

A few flares suddenly launched into the air less than a hundred meters in front.

The pale light made the shadows of this group of Japanese soldiers very long.

The soldiers of the 1st Company had already seen it: "Japanese!"

Ge Chengzhe and Zou Fei, who were pushing the heavy machine guns, had already opened fire on the Japanese.

Platoon Leader Feng Ruili had long ordered the soldiers of his platoon to aim at the bodies of the black figures.

Wait until they were sure they were Japanese before opening fire.

Now that they knew they were Japanese, the soldiers of the 1st Platoon were shooting at three-to-one from a distance.

Squad Leader Masuyama Yusei only had time to shout, "Enemy attack!"

Before being passively knocked down.

It was hit by more than three bullets in its body.

The soldiers of the 1st Platoon were shooting, and the others were not just watching the show.

More than a dozen patrolling Japanese soldiers fell down.

Ge Chengzhe and Zou Fei and their five "earth tanks" also stopped firing.

They just buried their heads and pushed the carts towards the Japanese camp.

When the gunfire rang out, Battalion Commander Nakayama Teyu immediately reacted.

They had also received the order from Colonel Akaji Yaezo to sneak attack Tengxian.

Now they were being attacked by someone at night.

It was inevitable that they would be nervous, and they ordered loudly: "Company Commander Yamada Akashi.

Attack immediately."

"Hai!"

Company Commander Yamada Akashi immediately returned to the company and directed the troops to charge towards the location where the gunfire came from.

The sudden attack launched by the Special Operations Brigade only took out a Japanese patrol team.

The Japanese in the camp were like hornets in a nest that had been poked.

They were quickly rushing out from various locations.

Although they did not have officers above the rank of squad leader to command them.

But these Japanese soldiers were commanded by the various squad leaders.

They quickly began to counterattack the Special Operations Brigade that had come to attack.

Ge Chengzhe and the others had not yet charged into the Japanese camp.

When the Japanese heavy machine guns and machine guns opened fire.

In the dark night, the muzzle flashes of these guns were as obvious as lighthouses in the sea.

Lin Fan personally operated the mortar and bombarded the gun muzzles that were firing continuously.

The opposite team was the Japanese standing main division.

These Japanese soldiers reacted very quickly when they suddenly encountered an attack.

Those rifles and machine guns were no threat to the charging earth tanks.

But the Japanese grenade launchers fired at the charging earth tanks in the dark night.

Although the fragments produced by the explosion of the grenade did not penetrate the shields of the earth tanks.

But it also made the entire earth tank shake.

In the dark night, it was impossible to see where the Japanese grenade launcher was hidden.

Seeing this situation, Lin Fan immediately ordered: "Withdraw!

Deploy directional mines."

The five carts at the front immediately began to retreat.

Platoon Leader Qian Tianyou of the 2nd Platoon immediately led the soldiers to deploy the bombs.

When Company Commander Yamada Akashi led the team to the camp gate.

What he saw was that the attacking team was retreating.

He immediately ordered: "Flares!"

Company Commander Yamada Akashi was full of anger:

"You came to cause trouble.

Now is the time to see my performance."

Hearing his order, the first-in-command,

Squad Leader Fujikawa Daigo, immediately launched more than a dozen flares.

The situation of the Special Operations Brigade that was retreating in front was clearly seen at once.

"Kill!"

"Don't let anyone go!" Company Commander Yamada Akashi ordered loudly.

At this time, Battalion Commander Nakayama Teyu had ordered the entire battalion's infantry guns and mortars to fire at the retreating Special Operations Brigade.

Lin Fan, who had retreated into the darkness, watched the shells with tails of flames constantly flying up from the Japanese camp.

He concentrated his five mortars.

Adjusted the angle and direction, and ordered: "Five rounds of rapid fire, move 200 meters to the left rear after firing.

Fire!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom!..."

The five gunners who received the order, even in the dark night.

Their movements were also consistent.

Five shells were fired.

Quickly transferred the mortars.

Lin Fan's goal this time was only to attack the Japanese artillery positions.

Battalion Commander Nakayama Teyu looked at the artillery positions concentrated together by the Japanese.

His hands were full of cold sweat, and his body was trembling! He was fortunate that he had not commanded at the artillery positions just now.

Now the artillery positions of his battalion had been covered by artillery fire.

The attacking team launched a wave of dense artillery fire bombardment.

It actually caused the shells on the artillery positions of the Nakayama Teyu Battalion to explode in place.

Fortunately, this was a temporary artillery position, and there were not many shells stored.

It did not have much impact on the entire battalion's infantry.

But it eliminated all the artillery of the entire battalion.

What kind of team was this?

Especially when Battalion Commander Nakayama Teyu heard that this team was already retreating.

He was even more angry: you are all retreating, why are you firing artillery?

They cannot be allowed to run away.

Battalion Commander Nakayama Teyu, who was so angry that he could not wait to chop up the attacking team immediately, ordered: "Company Commander Kojima Asahi, set off immediately.

Assist Company Commander Yamada to annihilate the attacking team.

They are so hateful."

Company Commander Yamada Akashi had already led the team out of the camp gate at this time.

Squad Leader Fujikawa Daigo, who was at the front, was about to catch up with the carts that were retreating.

At this moment, the five carts suddenly stopped.

Ge Chengzhe, Zou Fei, and the others saw that they were already more than 100 meters away from the Japanese camp.

The grenade launchers that were firing at them were not as dense as they had just been.

The closest Japanese were less than 50 meters away, and if they retreated any further.

The Japanese would charge up.

If these Japanese who were sending themselves up to the gun muzzles were not shot, they would be sorry for the 1,000-mile journey they had traveled from Jurong to Tengxian.

Five heavy machine guns opened fire at the same time.

The flares in the air were slowly going out, and the Japanese soldiers of the Fujikawa Daigo Squad were still continuing to replenish them.

One flare after another was launched into the air.

The entire earth was once again shrouded in a pale, pale light.

On the opposite side, the five carts suddenly fired a dense hail of bullets.

At this time, Squad Leader Fujikawa Daigo looked at the gun muzzles in front of him that were constantly spitting out flames.

Only then did he understand: "Careless! The opponent I am facing is not a lamb, but a tiger-like opponent."

The rain of bullets fired by the five heavy machine guns was like a scythe, sweeping across the waists of these Japanese soldiers of the entire Fujikawa Daigo Squad.

These Japanese soldiers who were charging so vigorously fell to the ground one after another.

This time, they were not making tactical movements on the battlefield on their own initiative.

But they were passively hit and had to fall down.

At such a close distance, they were hit by the specially processed bullets of the Special Operations Brigade.

These Japanese soldiers would never be able to go to the battlefield again.

Lin Fan now had time and was constantly improving his existing equipment.

He actually did not do much to these bullets.

He just had the soldiers randomly carve two lines in front of the bullet head.

It was these two lines that allowed the bullet to split when it hit the Japanese's body.

Just like glass products, it would shatter when it hit an object.

Company Commander Yamada Akashi, who was following behind the Fujikawa Daigo Squad, ordered loudly:

"Lie down! Lie down!"

His order was issued very timely, and the combat quality and combat awareness of these Japanese soldiers in the entire company were also very strong.

When they had just laid down, the five heavy machine guns in front began to retreat again.

Company Commander Yamada Akashi did not have time to count the casualties.

The Kojima Asahi Company, which had set off later than him, had already caught up.

Company Commander Asahi asked with concern: "Company Commander Yamada, your casualties are too great.

Follow behind!"

Company Commander Yamada Akashi was looked down upon.

He was angry at once: "I still have two squads that can fight, the Yamada Company only advances and does not retreat."

Company Commander Kojima Asahi did not argue with him.

He just ordered loudly: "Speed up and catch up."

The Japanese soldiers of his company, in order to show the difference from the Yamada Akashi Company.

The Japanese soldiers of the entire company were shouting and rushing forward at a faster speed.

The Japanese soldiers of the Yamada Akashi Company, seeing that there were friendly troops, had their morale, which had just been hit,

immediately aroused.

Not willing to fall behind, they also ran along.

Although Company Commander Yamada Akashi was unwilling to admit it, he had to say: Company Commander Kojima Asahi's few words aroused the fighting spirit of the entire company.

It was really good.

In the dark night, lying on the ground, constantly staring at these Japanese soldiers who were catching up.

Hou Junnan, Fu Yuansi, and the others who had not retreated with the entire Special Operations Brigade.

Just lay on the ground pretending to be dead.

Hou Junnan silently watched the Japanese rush into the range of the directional mines.

He waited until the last batch of Japanese soldiers had all rushed into the trap.

Only then did he whisper: "Detonate!"

Two Japanese companies advancing side by side.

When they were rushing most comfortably.

Company Commander Kojima Asahi saw a flash of fire on the left front.

It had not had time to do anything.

When it heard a violent explosion, continuous explosions.

The hissing sound of bullets was constantly passing by its ears.

At the same time, countless places on its body were in pain.

"We've hit a mine!

These are really cunning Sichuan Army.

Setting up a minefield to lure us."

At this time, Company Commander Kojima Asahi still thought that the attackers were the Sichuan Army.
