I rise from the sword

Chapter 244: The Threat of the Ghost Thrower, Zhao Gang to the Rescue!
The reason why the little devil dropped smoke bombs was for the same purpose as Yang Lin's, to interfere with the opponent's line of sight and reduce his own casualties.

After 20 minutes of combined attack by the Devil bombers and ground artillery, they gradually stopped.

Immediately, the ground infantry began to charge.

It is worth mentioning that the little devil summed up the previous failure experience, the air force did not return immediately after the bombing, but continued to sweep the sky over Tianjiao City Mountain.

In this way, the artillery of the defending army did not dare to expose the target easily and provided fire support for the independent regiment.

The Japanese attack position.

The devil commander who led the team drew out the saber from his waist, swung it forward vigorously, and gave the order to attack.

"Warriors of the Empire, the time has come to serve His Majesty the Emperor, and attack!"

"Occupy the Chinese army's position in front, kill the chicken, kill the chicken!"

"On board His Majesty the Emperor, on board the Great Japanese Imperial Army!"

"On board His Majesty the Emperor, on board the Great Japanese Imperial Army!"

"..."

Thousands of ghost soldiers chanted brainwashing slogans, and under the cover of the smoke screen, they rushed towards the independent regiment's position like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.

At this time, the forward position of the independent regiment was completely submerged in a sea of ​​smoke.

The most important thing is that in addition to the conventional smog, there is also a large amount of sulfur dioxide and mustard gas, which caused the independent regiment to suffer a lot of casualties.

As a last resort, Li Yunlong had to order to retreat to the second-line position.

Because of the protection of the gas mask, the little devil seemed a little unscrupulous, and soon rushed to the front position of the independent regiment.

However, due to the limited number of gas masks, the Japanese army could not put all three infantry brigades in, and only sent more than 1000 people as the vanguard of the attacking force.

The little devil who rushed to the position carefully inspected the front position surrounded by poisonous smoke, but saw that there were no other defenders in the messy position except for some scattered defenders' corpses and explosion craters everywhere.

"Baga! These damned Chinese troops have already abandoned their defenses and fled. Pursue, continue to pursue!"

The devil commander suppressed the joy of rushing to the defender's position, and gave the order to attack again.

The second-line position of the independent regiment is about 500 meters away from the front position. At this time, the position here is also filled with thick smoke.

Part of it was dropped by the Devils Air Force and dispersed from the forward position, and part of it was released by the defenders themselves in order to prevent air strikes.

The sight of the defenders on the ground was blocked, and they couldn't see how many little devils rushed up, they could only hear the screams of ghosts.

Moreover, since the attacking little devils were all wearing gas masks, the screams of these ghosts sounded extraordinarily scary.

When the devils rushed to a position about 200 meters in front of the position, the defenders vaguely found the enemy.

"Brothers, the little devils are rushing up!!!"

"Crack, clap clap!—"

The guard sentinels of the independent regiment who risked their lives to stay at the front to scout the enemy's situation immediately pulled the trigger and fired warning shots when they discovered the army of devils rushing across the road.

"Brothers, return to the battle position and prepare to fight!!!"

"Ready to fight!"

Hearing the warning gunshots, Li Yunlong immediately drilled out of the fortifications and personally commanded the battle on the ground.

On the second-line position, there were bursts of hurried footsteps immediately, as well as the clashing sound of the marching kettle on the waist, and the metal impact sound of pulling the bolt and pushing the bullet into the chamber.

Soon, thousands of independent regiment fighters returned to their combat positions.

Facing the little devils wearing gas masks who looked like cyborgs, there was no trace of fear on their faces, only boundless hatred!
The defenders put their weapons on the trench wall and decisively pulled the trigger against the blurred figure in the smoke.

"Da da da, da da da!"

"Tut, chug, chug, chug..."

"Crack, clap clap clap!—"

Suddenly, gunshots erupted from the second-line positions of the Independence Regiment.

A large area of ​​dense bullet rain, like splashing water, poured and covered the oncoming devil attacking crowd.

After the previous few battles, the equipment of the independent regiment has been greatly improved.Right now, there is no need to deliberately aim at it, and the saturation attack is over.

To paraphrase Li Yunlong's words, our old Li has never fought such a rich battle.

"Uhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"

The devil soldiers who charged ahead were shot and killed by bullets, and immediately fell down in pieces.

"Grenade attack!"

"Machine gun team, fire suppression!!!"

The devil's military quality is very high. After being blocked by firepower, he did not panic, but immediately formed a skirmish formation, looking for favorable terrain to fight back.

"Attack, attack!"

Under the command of the devil commander, the attacking devil soldiers lay down on the ground, or knelt on the ground, pulled the bolts of their guns continuously, and fired back at the defenders.

"Da da da, da da da!!!"

"Crack, clap clap..."

Soldiers on both sides fired at each other fiercely, with dense bullets splashing back and forth.

Although the smoke bombs thrown by the devils interfered with the sight of the defenders, the sight of the charging enemies was also disturbed.

"Tom, tom tom tom!!!"

After the devil grenadiers set up the grenadiers, they fired continuously, causing a lot of casualties to the defenders.

Li Yunlong, who came to the front line to command the battle, saw his own soldiers fell under the attack of the devil grenadiers, and his teeth itched with hatred.

He tried to shoot a few times, but the enemy was too far away, more than 200 meters away, coupled with the obstruction of the smoke, and the devil grenadiers basically hid behind the bunker, leaving only a small half of their heads outside.

This made the bullets fired by Li Yunlong either fly into the sky, or get into the bunker, and did not hit the devil's grenadier at all.

Just at this time, a familiar figure suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

The man was also carrying a Mauser 98k rifle with a telescope in his hand.

Seeing this, Li Yunlong was overjoyed immediately, with a bright smile like a chrysanthemum blooming on his face: "Old Zhao, you came just in time, quickly kill the devil's grenadier!"

The person who came was none other than Zhao Gang, the government of the Independence Group.

Even though he is just a civilian official, his marksmanship is the most accurate in the entire Independence Regiment, and he can accurately kill enemies 500 away with just a machine-aisled rifle.

With such a powerful marksmanship, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a sharpshooter.

Zhao Gang has not been idle for the past few days. Apart from dealing with the life problems of the independent regiment, he has also been practicing shooting with the sniper rifle that Yang Lin gave him.

Up to now, he has been able to accurately hit targets 800 meters away, even 1000 meters away, with a good hit rate.

Right now, the enemy 200 meters away is too easy for Zhao Gang.

Even if the opponent only shows half of his head.

"Snapped!"

"Crack, crack, crack..."
