I'm killing enemies with my sword and exploding equipment

Chapter 802: Hit them hard! No one is allowed to escape!
Under the devastating artillery fire, thousands of soldiers in the Japanese Third Brigade were trembling in fear.

However, Taro Yamada also knew that if he continued to passively endure the bombing like this, his entire brigade would be destroyed before dark.

So, after being confused for a few minutes, he yelled and called all his officers to crawl to his side for a meeting.

It was finally decided that the entire brigade would split into two groups and launch a breakout.

Along the way, we led a battalion of troops to attack northwest first to attract the enemy's attention.

The remaining several thousand troops took the opportunity to break out to the southeast, try to escape the encirclement, and then quickly retreat westward via the Zhengtai Road.

Finally, seeing that all the captains and wing commanders looked unhappy and lacked confidence, Yamada Taro quickly encouraged their morale:
"Warriors, although the Eighth Route Army's artillery fire is fierce.

But as long as we rushed to the hillside and joined them, their artillery would not dare to continue firing!

This is our chance to win!"

Hearing what he said, the officers all nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

The fierce artillery fire now really made their scalps tingle and they had no confidence in breaking out.

At this time, the brigade chief of staff Kita Hitoshi suggested:
"Your Excellency, Commander of the Brigade, we should immediately turn on the radio, report to the Commander, and request tactical guidance!
If we can even get artillery support and destroy the artillery of the Eighth Route Army, we may still have a chance to turn defeat into victory and achieve unprecedented achievements! "

"Yoshi, this makes sense!

Kita-kun is indeed very resourceful!"

Yamada Taro nodded repeatedly.

At this moment, he didn't care about how unhappy Shinozuka Kazuo was.

Then he arranged:

"Kita-kun, I order you to take charge of this matter immediately!"

Hearing what he said, Kita Hitoshi suddenly collapsed.

Now, he was about thirty or forty meters away from where the telegraph operator was lying.

Asking him to crawl over under heavy gunfire to convey orders, isn't that asking for his life?
On the battlefield, military orders are as heavy as a mountain.

He didn't dare to disobey Taro Yamada's order, so he could only bite the bullet and crawl over there.

Soon, he carefully dodged the deadly shrapnel and deafening screams, and crawled safely to several telegraph operators and conveyed Taro Yamada's orders.

Then the telegraph operators carefully took the radio off their backs, raised the antenna, turned it on, and prepared to send the message.

However, at this time, an artillery observer from the special forces regiment in the distance suddenly saw through a telescope that an antenna had been raised here.

I was immediately overjoyed!

Thinking that the Japanese command center was here, he quickly passed the artillery parameters to a Type 92 infantry gun.

After receiving the signal, the gunners quickly adjusted the firing parameters and pulled the gun rope.

"boom--"

With a cannon shot, the 11-pound shell flew out.

It hit the Japanese radio station with incredible precision.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the Japanese telegraph operators and the radios in their hands were all blown into the sky.

Also unlucky with them was the Chief of Staff of the 3rd Brigade, Kita Hitoshi!

After conveying the order, this guy immediately crawled towards Yamada Taro, but his speed was a little slow, and several shrapnel pierced his spine.

His spine was severed on the spot, leaving him to die like a boneless dog.

Seeing this not far away, Taro Yamada suddenly felt his scalp tingling, as if the god of death was right in front of him.

He immediately shouted angrily:

"Hurry up, act!!!"

……

Following his order, the Japanese officers also tried their best to call their men.

Under the gunfire, they suddenly jumped up from the ground and rushed forward separately according to the plan just now.

When they charged, our soldiers on the hillsides on both sides felt tremendous pressure.

The hands holding the gun couldn't help but sweat.

On the northwest hillside, the soldiers of the New 1st Regiment loudly asked Ding Wei:

"Captain, when do we open fire?"

Ding Wei's face was also very solemn. Looking at the howling Japanese soldiers rushing towards him, he replied in a cold voice:

"Wait a minute, let the Japanese get within 500 meters before you attack!
Comrades, don't panic. Our artillery and heavy machine guns are still firing. The Japanese devils will be in big trouble!
And you see, there are only a thousand Japanese soldiers coming towards us, which is not enough for our new regiment to eat!"

After hearing his order, the soldiers immediately calmed down and took aim carefully.

Be prepared to kill one of the Japanese with one shot later!

...In the midst of the dense artillery fire, the Japanese soldiers seemed to be dancing with the shells, rushing towards the hillsides on both sides fearlessly.

Although people kept falling down, none of the Japanese soldiers who were still able to move retreated.

I have to say, the Japanese devils these days really should not be underestimated!
The fighting will is very strong!
Soon, after suffering three or four hundred casualties, four or five hundred of them finally rushed to the defense line of the New 1st Regiment in a scattered formation.

At this time, Ding Wei gave a decisive order:
"Comrades, hit me hard!
Don’t let even one devil escape!”

Following his order, the soldiers of the New 1st Regiment immediately opened fire at full force.

The sound of gunfire from the Type 38 rifles was as dense as frying beans.

At this moment, although most of the soldiers of the New 1st Regiment were new recruits, they had just seen their own side using artillery fire to severely bully the Japanese, and they were already full of confidence.

This time, when he fired the gun, he was steady, accurate and very tricky.

……

Southeast of White Wolf Valley, at the positions of the New Second Regiment and the Divisional Guard Regiment, the faces of the soldiers were very grim.

This was different from Ding Wei's side in the New 1st Regiment, who was only facing an attack from more than a thousand people.

On their side, they saw a large number of Japanese soldiers rushing towards the position.

Each of them was holding a gun and roaring like a wild beast.

Kong Jie couldn't help but scold Political Commissar Dou Guangjie:
"You damned little devils, you're treating me like a soft persimmon!"

Dou Guangjie also looked solemn and said quickly:

"Lao Kong, let the soldiers open fire immediately. It is better to waste bullets than to have the position breached."

Kong Jie nodded:

"That's right! I can still ask Yang Yuanshan for the bullets.

If my position is breached, I will be too ashamed to face anyone."

Then he shouted the order:

"Comrades, open fire, beat the Japs hard, and don't let them rush over!"

As soon as the order was given, gunfire rang out and bullets flew everywhere on the position of the New Second Regiment.

……

On the nearby position, Fang Dingan, the political commissar of the divisional guard regiment, saw that the New Second Regiment had opened fire, and hurriedly ordered the soldiers of his own regiment to start shooting.

He was not good at giving orders, but he had no choice but to follow Kong Jie and the others.

Anyway, he guessed that Yang Yuanshan would not sit idly by and watch them get into trouble.

The full-scale firing of their two regiments, with more than a thousand people, temporarily made it difficult for the Japanese soldiers, who were already under artillery fire and suffered heavy losses, to advance.

The Japanese soldiers were a little afraid when they saw the fascinating barrage of bullets in front of them.

Many people are thinking: It’s too scary that the Eighth Route Army is so brutal!

Bullets are free!

Didn’t the officers all say that the Locust Army was invincible?

Why can even the small Eighth Route Army beat us up now?
……

Not far away, Yang Yuanshan, who was standing on the hillside watching the battle, couldn't help but secretly rejoice when he saw the Japanese soldiers being divided into two.

I thought to myself: I just like you guys to be scattered!

Dispersing is the best way to defeat them one by one.

If you gather together and rush in one direction, it will be difficult to wipe you out even with our strong firepower.

How depressing would it be if hundreds or thousands of people ran away?
Then he shouted:

"Order Gao Yuanzhi's artillery battalion to stop firing to avoid accidental injuries."

The artillery battalion of the special forces regiment used mountain artillery to conduct beyond-visual-range artillery fire from several kilometers away.

Now the Japanese were about to rush towards their positions. If they continued to fire, the risk of accidental injuries would be too high, so he gave this order immediately.

Following his order, the guard battalion commander Wang Ye asked:
"Captain, the Japanese are charging so fiercely. If we ask the artillery battalion to stop firing now, will the New Second Regiment be unable to withstand it?"

"It's okay. Don't we still have Chu Kun's more than a hundred cannons?"

Yang Yuanshan waved his hands, ignoring his reminder.

Then he ordered a messenger:

"Go inform Chu Kun to have their recoilless guns fire at full speed and give these bastards a good beating!
They fell into my trap and still wanted to escape. I can’t kill them!”

"Yes!"
