Anti-Japanese War: Developing on my own, I brought back a US-equipped division

The reconnaissance soldier carefully observed every place, moving forward step by step, for fear of making any noise.

Suddenly a hand stretched out from the darkness behind and covered the scout's mouth, preventing him from making any sound.

Immediately afterwards, a hand holding a dagger appeared in front of him and stabbed directly into the reconnaissance soldier's neck.

"keep going."

This is the vanguard of the Nagano Regiment, a reconnaissance team, exploring the way ahead.

"Report to the wing commander, we can continue to move forward."

The scout used a radio to send a message to the rear, and the large force that heard the message continued to advance forward.

But at this time they did not realize that a sniper hidden in the darkness was watching them quietly, and every move of the reconnaissance team was in their eyes.

"Calling the position, there is a Japanese reconnaissance team in the southwest, and they are infiltrating towards our position, please pay attention."

In front of the camp, Chang Fa heard the message from the sniper and immediately became alert.

"A reconnaissance team?"

Changfa was thinking, and suddenly he thought of something.

"If there is a reconnaissance team nearby, then they must be investigating something. So they are investigating for a certain team... which means there must be a Japanese army nearby."

Maybe it is true. The Japanese would not send a reconnaissance team to patrol nearby for no reason. So it is very likely that they are followed by a large force.

"Everyone! Build defenses immediately! Hurry! Get into combat mode!"

Chang Fa gave the order immediately, not daring to delay for a moment.

At this time, the hidden sniper saw that there were more Japanese troops behind the reconnaissance team, and they were walking towards them. It seemed that there were nearly three thousand people.

It might be a regiment of Japanese devils!

".~Battalion Commander, a big fish has come. It looks like a regiment."

The sniper sent information to Changfa and his men, and continued to observe the movements of the Nagano Regiment.

At this moment, an explosion suddenly came from the distance. It seemed that the Japanese stepped on the mines deployed by the Fourth Battalion.

The Japanese regiment immediately prepared for battle, setting up mortars and Type 92 infantry guns in the rear, ready to fire at any time.

Chang Fa did not take any action and just waited quietly for the Japanese to enter the encirclement.

Seeing that there was no movement from the opposite side, Nagano Hirofumi ordered the rear army to rest on the spot while the front army continued to move forward.

Not long after, the front army passed through a forest and saw a wasteland in front of them, but there was still no strange phenomenon.

"Do you think the commander of the regiment is mistaken? There are no Chinese troops nearby?"

One of the Japanese soldiers looked at the scene in front of him and said nonchalantly.

"Muto-kun, stop talking and just do as you are told."

Seeing that there was no sign of trouble, the vanguard troops were about to return when suddenly there was the roar of artillery and a deafening explosion (the king's) that struck their ears.

The shells fell quickly among the Japanese troops, and the fragments produced by the explosion hit the bodies and vital parts of the Japanese soldiers, killing dozens of them on the spot.

"Report to the regiment commander! The front is under attack from the Chinese army! Chinese troops have been spotted 800 meters ahead!"

The messenger immediately spoke to Nagano Hirofumi, asking him to order an immediate counterattack.

"Order the artillery to bombard the Chinese army's positions immediately. When the bombardment is over, the cavalry will attack the Chinese army's positions from the flank. Use smoke bombs in the front and the infantry will advance!"

After giving the order, Nagano Hirofumi looked angrily in the direction of Changfa's position.

He was attacked by the enemy even though he was well prepared! This is a great shame for him! Nagano Hirofumi must wash away this shame, that is to destroy the Changfa army in front of him! Save the equipment on the train!

He looked ahead hungrily like a wolf.

"Begin the bombardment!".

Chapter 787: A platoon of the Tiger Guards is stronger than a division of the Central Army? Fierce fighting! (First update, please subscribe)

"fire!"

Following the Japanese's order.

The Japanese started bombing with all kinds of artillery.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The sound of fierce artillery fire resounded throughout the land, and the vibrations caused by the explosions felt like they could lift the earth upside down.

"Continue the bombardment!"

Hirofumi Nagano rode on horseback, pointing his saber in the direction of the Fourth Battalion, and ordered the artillery positions behind him to continuously pour shells towards the Fourth Battalion.

He must be like a wild wolf, biting his prey and not letting go, not giving them a chance to breathe, and must strike hard and fatally.

After an unknown amount of time, the artillery positions in the rear finally stopped firing, but gun smoke still filled the air.

"attack!"

The Japanese cavalry, who had been waiting on the flank for a long time, finally had the chance to show their skills. Holding long swords in their hands, they immediately rushed towards the flank of Changfa's position.

"Battalion Commander! The Japanese cavalry are rushing over from the flank!"

The positions built by Changfa are in the shape of a ladder, with one level connected to another. It can be said that it is like passing a level, with layers of positions and fortifications.

"You lead a company and lurk in the cavalry's attack route. Use incendiary bombs to block their route, and then bombard them with mortars!"

Chang Fa gave instructions to his subordinates around him, then turned and walked towards the front of the position.

After receiving the order, the soldiers immediately organized their men and horses to run in the direction of the cavalry's advance, and set up heavy machine guns aside, waiting for the cavalry to arrive.

"Xiao Xue, how are your preparations going?"

Company commander Xue Yang was still digging trenches. When he saw Chang Fa coming, he immediately put down the hoe in his hand.

"I asked them to place two heavy machine guns on both sides of the position, and then laid some mines in front. We also have snipers on the small hillside in the east. I think these should be enough."

After listening to Xue Yang's words, Chang Fa nodded and continued.

"If the position is lost, we should retreat as quickly as possible and avoid making unnecessary sacrifices."

"Yes!"

At this time, the Japanese cavalry was attacking the position on Changfa's flank.

"Draw your bayonets! Attack!"

The leading Japanese commander drew his saber from his waist and rushed towards the position.

"Crack! Crack!"

Suddenly, red flames appeared in the grass in the distance, flew towards the direction of the impact, hit the ground in front of them, and instantly burned up.

Some Molotov cocktails directly hit several cavalrymen, and both the horses and the men were instantly burned.

"Ahhh! Help! Help me!"

The Japanese soldier, his whole body burning, fell directly from the horse's back to the ground, rolling back and forth on the ground, trying to put out the flames on his body.

But there was no response at all.

Seeing a long wall of fire suddenly appear in front of them, blocking their way, the team behind them stopped immediately.

"We've fallen into the Chinese army's trap! Damn it! Find cover! Get out of here quickly!"

Seeing the Japanese soldiers in front of him being hit by Molotov cocktails and rolling on the ground in agony, the Japanese commander took out his pistol and shot them one by one to relieve their pain.

Suddenly, there was the sound of fierce machine gun fire in the grass, and bullets were shot towards the Japanese.

In an instant, all the Japanese soldiers around him were shot, and some were knocked to the ground with their horses.

"Quick! Throw out all the grenades and other things. This will reduce the pressure on the position when they attack later."

Seeing that the machine guns were constantly firing at his own cavalry units to obstruct them, Hirofumi Nagano immediately ordered the mortars to fire at the machine gunners ambushed on the flank.

"Get ready! Fire!"

In one salvo, the mortar fired accurately towards the machine gun position, and the shells hit directly next to the position, causing a violent explosion.

Rumble…

Explosions roared.

The subordinates around him reported to Chang Fa: "Report to the battalion commander! The machine gun position we ambushed was attacked by enemy artillery. The current casualties are unknown... It is estimated that the entire army has been wiped out."

When he talked about the annihilation of the entire army, his voice paused for a moment, and he couldn't bear to continue.

Chang Fa listened to the report with a frown, but he didn't say anything. He just lowered his head and thought about something.

"Prepare the flank positions for defense to deal with the attack of the Japanese cavalry, and prepare the front positions for defense."

After giving the order, Chang Fa looked at the flames produced by the explosion in the distance, and his eyes suddenly became a little blurred.

"The Japanese are launching smoke bombs! The targets are not visible from the frontline positions!"

Chang Fa was instantly attracted by the sound, picked up the telescope and looked forward.

I saw that the open space between the two sides was filled with white smoke, and I couldn't see the movements of the Japanese soldiers on the opposite side at all.

"Notify the sniper position. If he sees anything, he must report it immediately!"

Chang Fa immediately gave orders to the operator beside him.

"Blue Eagle, can you see where the Japs are moving?"

The operator asked over the intercom what the sniper's vision was like.

"There is also smoke everywhere here, and I can't find out the Japs' route of movement."

Hearing that the sniper was also unable to observe the Japanese, Chang Fa ordered his men to throw grenades forward immediately.

A dozen soldiers threw grenades towards the vast expanse of white, and the grenades exploded immediately, but no noise was heard. Apart from the sound of the explosion, there was no scream.

"Didn't the Japs come over?"

Just when everyone was confused, the Japanese cavalry on the flank position rushed up.

"The Japanese cavalry is coming! Get ready for battle!"

Seeing the Japanese cavalry rushing towards them, the soldiers of the Tiger Guards immediately used machine guns to intercept them and opened fire fiercely.

Da da da da…

Afraid, afraid, afraid...

In an instant, the cavalry in the front row fell down, and then the cavalry coming from the rear were all shot and fell down one after another.

However, the enemy had more people and faster speed, and gradually pushed the battle line to a place not far from the front line.

"Throw the grenade!"

As soon as he finished speaking, one of the Japanese cavalrymen rushed into the position and chopped at a soldier's head.

In an instant, the cavalry that swarmed in from behind quickly occupied the flanks of the position and wrestled with Changfa's fourth battalion of infantry.

"Fire quickly! We can't let the cavalry get too deep into the position!"

The soldiers immediately ignited the prepared hay, which instantly ignited a raging fire, forming a barrier to prevent the cavalry from advancing.

"Brothers! Fight the Japs!"

All the soldiers immediately rushed out of the trenches and pointed their guns at the Japanese cavalry rushing towards them. Those who didn't have guns picked up their swords and slashed at the Japanese soldiers on horseback.

The soldiers at the front position were very sad when they saw the raging fire on the flank, but they could not go to support because there were more Japanese soldiers hiding somewhere on the other side.

Just when the two sides were fighting fiercely, suddenly a burst of fierce machine gun sound came from a distance.

It turned out to be a machine gun position hidden in the bushes, firing at the Japanese cavalry again.

There are still people alive...

"There are still people alive in the machine gun position!"

Hirofumi Nagano saw that the machine guns in the grass were constantly firing at the Japanese cavalry, directly killing a large number of enemy troops.

"Sneak attack! There's an ambush! Take cover!"
