Chapter 24: Probing Attack (Please Follow)

"Baka!"

Through the telescope, Fujita once again saw a small detachment of Imperial Warriors Jade Shattered.

His expression was extremely ugly.

Hashimoto Ryuji arrived at Fujita's side at this moment.

"Fujita, how is the combat situation?"

Seeing the Colonel arrive, Fujita lowered his telescope, bowed, and stood at attention.

"Colonel!"

"Where are you, kid?"

"Boom, boom, boom!! ——"

But, at this moment, the devils were only fifty meters away from the Sichuan Army positions.

A mere five minutes!

Specifically bombarding the Sichuan Army's light and heavy machine gun Firepower Points.

The combat effectiveness of this local unit before them was unexpectedly this strong.

The devils' offensive formation suddenly fell into chaos.

"The devils are retreating..."

A company of Imperial Warriors was seen, one hundred meters from the Sichuan Army positions.

The devil company commander drew the Command Sword at his waist.

But!

Large swaths of devils fell into pools of blood.

On the position!

Zhang Kang also saw the devils' artillery and Grenade Launchers.

The intersecting fire net caused the devil soldiers to instantly press themselves to the ground.

After Yu Hua landed a hit, he left his hiding spot.

Light and heavy machine guns swept across, and another large group of devils fell.

"You take a few men and take out the devils' Type 92 Heavy Machine Gun for me."

"No one is allowed to show their head!"

Zhang Kang shouted: "Fire!"

"Order the troops to withdraw!" Hashimoto Ryuji lowered his telescope.

"Good marksmanship!"

When the devils' artillery showed its power.

"Rumble!!"

After the massive explosion, the barrel of the Maxim Heavy Machine Gun was twisted into a pretzel.

This intense firepower also gave the devil company commander a shock.

During the first probing attack, the devils were already this strong.

The Sichuan Army concentrated their fire and shot rapidly at the devils.

The 75 mm Mountain Gun bombardment just now likely didn't hit the soldiers on the position.

Zhang Kang let out a long sigh.

The devils lay on the ground, raising their Type 38 Rifles to return fire.

The devils' four Mortars had long since locked onto the Sichuan Army's heavy machine guns.

Fujita saw that the attack was unfavorable, and the troops retreated once again.

These heavy machine guns were not easy to move; they were too cumbersome.

"Brother Zhang Kang, what is the mission?" Liao Junjie ran over.

However, the 1st Battalion's two heavy machine guns were in a difficult spot.

"We just used corpses to confuse the devils' artillery fire."

"We can't go on like this!"

"Bombard the Minefield, and after the shelling, the infantry will advance rapidly."

The light machine guns were fine, and the machine gunners were all following Xiang Wenbin's instructions.

Zhang Kang clapped his hands: "Whoever killed him, I will reward him."

He raised his hand and fired a shot!

The devil company commander who was charging was hit in the center of his brow.

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

"Capture the enemy position!"

Hearing this, Zhang Kang lifted the brim of his hat.

"Brothers!"

The two companies of attacking devils had already stabilized their footing.

One by one, they shouted: "The devils are retreating."

Joy appeared on everyone's cheeks.

Fire a burst and then withdraw, changing to another firing location.

They were already prepared, with the Grenade Launchers bombarding first.

"What are the devils trying to do?"

Yu Hua came to Zhang Kang's side: "Company Commander!"

"Yes!" Liao Junjie responded.

Carrying out carpet bombing, after finishing one round, the four Mortars were filling in the gaps.

"At present, the Imperial Warrior advance is very difficult."

Although he did not know how the enemy troops on the opposite side had managed to deceive the observation of the artillery balloons.

Especially since the infantry-artillery coordination was very good.

Outside the Field Position, the artillery and Grenade Launchers of two Japanese companies.

"Liao Junjie..."

He gathered a few people, "You all follow me."

The Bombs fired by the Grenade Launchers were aimed at the hundred-meter area in front of the Field Position.

"The Japanese fell for it once, they certainly won't fall for it a second time now."

After observing for a while, Hashimoto Ryuji gave an order to Fujita.

The Japanese artillery and Grenade Launchers.

The first wave of the Japanese attack was repelled.

In an instant, the 1st Battalion's Light and Heavy Machine Guns swept across the Japanese soldiers.

Zhang Kang also knew that the Japanese Machine Guns had to be dealt with.

And just at this moment, the Japanese Type 92 Heavy Machine Gun jammed.

Zhang Kang shouted.

Zhang Kang pointed at the Japanese Type 92 Heavy Machine Gun, "If we don't take it out, the Japanese will be able to break into the position immediately."

"You hurry and tell the Battalion Commander to have the whole battalion dig Anti-Artillery Caves and construct Tunnels."

This shot was naturally fired by Yu Hua.

That position just now was exactly where Yu Hua was hiding.

"We are being suppressed by the Japanese firepower and cannot lift our heads."

"I will arrange it immediately!"

The enemy troops on the position were still a full-strength battalion.

The 1st Battalion's Light and Heavy Machine Gun firepower added up to ten guns.

Fujita nodded: "Hai!"

Otherwise, the Japanese would be able to charge into the trenches immediately.

"The Republic of China Army on the opposite side has set up a Minefield in front of the position."

"Clang!"

After the Japanese company commander received the order.

After the Japanese company commander saw this scene, a cold look appeared at the corners of his mouth.

The Japanese lying on the ground charged straight toward the Sichuan Army's position.

He held a Zhongzheng Rifle in his hand and saw the Japanese machine gunner coming up.

Yang Jun and the others hurriedly detonated the remaining few Minefields.

He then remembered!

It blew up a squad of Japanese.

But, it is certain now.

This battle also made Zhang Kang feel the strength of the Japanese soldiers.

"Give it to me, hit them hard!"

"Company Commander!"

"Charge!"

He was so angry that he drew the Command Sword from his waist and chopped a wooden stick in half.

The primary and secondary gunners operating the Heavy Machine Gun were blown to death on the spot!

The Grenade Launchers and Mortars behind the Japanese also immediately covered the infantry.

He raised the Command Sword in his hand: "Charge!"

Yu Hua was hiding in the shadows.

The two companies of Japanese machine guns were also brought up from the rear.

Upon hearing this!

A cold sneer appeared at the corners of his mouth!

"Little Japanese, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Let them use the Grenade Launchers and Mortars."

It actually had some effect; several Minefields were indeed detonated by artillery shells.

Among them were two Heavy Machine Guns and eight Light Machine Guns.

After the Japanese machine guns were set up, they spat flames at the Sichuan Army position.

Zhang Kang saw the Japanese firepower concentrating on one point to fire.

He said in a cold and indifferent tone!

"Hai!" Fujita issued the order to retreat.

"The Japanese are using artillery to clear mines!" Zhang Kang took a stealthy look.

He immediately began to mobilize the Mortars and Grenade Launchers.

The moment he killed the Japanese company commander, countless bullets headed toward the position where Yu Hua was hiding.

At the same time!

Two heavy machine guns were bombarded by twenty shells from four Japanese mortars.

"Must find a way to take out the Japanese machine guns."

The ensuing battle would only become more perilous.

"Brothers, keep your heads down, every damn one of you."

After the Japanese company commander saw the opposing firepower weaken.

Hashimoto Ryuji raised his telescope to observe.

"Fujita, order the troops."

Liao Junjie leaned in, "Brother Zhang Kang!"

After destroying the Japanese Type 92 Heavy Machine Gun, Yu Hua's gaze immediately fell upon the Japanese company commander.

Three hundred meters!

This distance, for Yu Hua, was just right!

The Type 92 Heavy Machine Gun spat out a continuous stream of fire, preventing the Sichuan Army soldiers from daring to show their heads.

"Boom!"

Dense artillery fire bombarded the Minefield set up by the Sichuan Army.

After suffering a sudden, unexpected blow.

"These Japanese have accurate marksmanship; every bullet bites into flesh."

The Japanese company commander and platoon leaders immediately stabilized their formation.

Two companies of Japanese soldiers climbed up from the ground and began a banzai charge.

On the Field Position, the Sichuan Army soldiers saw the little Japanese retreat.

Yoshizumi Ryosuke's 9th Division was, after all, an elite unit within the Japanese Army.

Although the Japanese artillery continuously bombarded the Field Position, the Sichuan Army fought to the death and did not retreat.

He also did not know what the little Japanese were going to do next.

"The incoming artillery fire will be extremely fierce."

"Constructing Anti-Artillery Caves can minimize our casualties as much as possible."
