Chapter 247: Pressure Suddenly Increases

"Baka yaro!"

Tani Hisao's face was ferocious, like a beast from hell!

"Where is our artillery unit?"

"Why haven't they set up the guns yet!"

Tani Hisao's Adjutant immediately lowered his head.

"Your Excellency Division Commander, the artillery unit is currently unloading the guns."

"They still need ten minutes before they can establish the artillery position!"

"Tell them to be quick!" Tani Hisao said coldly: "The Imperial Army infantry is in urgent need of artillery support right now."

"Will there be danger!?"

The bayonet charge has already begun!

"As for the artillery position, it can be a bit crude!"

"Ask how much time we have left before we can annihilate the 6th Division and the Kunisaki Detachment's Supply Troops."

He was also stunned!

"This army is different from the troops the Imperial Army encountered in the Pingjin Region."

"My 6th Division's Artillery Regiment possesses 75 mm Field Guns and Type 94 Mountain Guns."

"Order the Artillery Regiment to aim and fire for me!"

"The Artillery Regiment has already constructed the artillery position."

What was very fortunate was that the 6th Division and the Kunisaki Detachment's artillery units had not yet opened fire.

"This shows that the Sichuan Army troops are severely lacking in artillery!"

"If they had any!"

"I fear Lao Rao and Lao Liu's troops won't be able to hold on!"

"As long as we take out the 6th Division and the Kunisaki Detachment's supplies."

The toughness of these devils truly exceeded his imagination.

Kunisaki Noboru discovered that the Imperial Army troops had charged to the mountainside.

Following Guo Xunqi's words, the 145th Division and the 146th Division.

"I will call Adjutant Yu immediately!"

"This is a special period, so we can be flexible and adapt."

Speaking of this, Yu Hua had Zhou Yin hand over a map!

Glancing at the troop distribution on the map, Yu Hua said: "Immediately telegraph the Independent 13th Brigade and the Independent 14th Brigade."

"Lao Luo!"

And just at this moment!

Tani Hisao's Adjutant came to report: "Your Excellency Division Commander!"

"We still need to fight the devils in the encirclement for another hour."

"The 145th Division and the 146th Division are both calling now!"

After the little devils of the 6th Division and the Kunisaki Detachment stabilized their footing.

Speaking of this, Tani Hisao was very confident!

"Judging from the firepower level of this Sichuan Army unit, they lack large-caliber artillery."

"Reply to the 145th Division and the 146th Division!"

He discovered that his troops, while fighting the little devils in a bayonet charge.

Were actually struggling to hold on!

"The number of artillery pieces far exceeds the Sichuan Army, their Mortars!"

The sounds of slaughter between the two sides, as well as the whistling of fists hitting flesh, instantly spread across the hilltop.

After Yu Hua finished reading the telegram!

He estimated that the 6th Division and the Kunisaki Detachment's artillery!

Guo Xunqi looked at the devil's Supply Troops inside the ambush circle!

"This is an army that dares to fight hard battles!"

"If the artillery position is not constructed according to standard procedures."

They began to counterattack against the Sichuan Army!

The Sichuan Army on the first line of defense was now engaged in bayonet fighting with the devils.

Emitting a burst of intense sparks, and that clanging, powerful sound, continuously exploded in the air.

The 6th Division and the Kunisaki Detachment had now attacked the first line of defense of the two divisions.

At the same time, Liu Zhaoli of the 146th Division also felt the pressure suddenly increase.

Kunisaki Noboru saw that the Sichuan Army soldiers actually dared to go head-to-head with the Imperial Army troops.

And at this moment!

At the 145th Division's command post!

Rao Guohua was observing the situation of the first line of defense with a Telescope.

The Division Commander of the 115th Division had once said: "Only a unit that dares to see red with bayonets is an army that dares to fight hard battles!"

It is very likely that they have already constructed the artillery position and will proceed with covering artillery fire next.

"Look at the Sichuan Army position on the hilltop!"

"After all, we did encounter a Sichuan Army Mountain Gun attack back at Jinshanwei!"

"They cannot pose a threat to our artillery positions!"

The little devils' mortars also began to bombard the Sichuan Army positions.

The battle between the two sides has already reached a white-hot stage!

One hour!

If the two Divisions hold on stubbornly, they might be wiped out.

"The battle has only been going on for 30 minutes!"

Communications Soldier Xiao Liu ran quickly to the front of Yu Hua and Guo Xunqi.

This was a head-on melee; both sides had blood in their eyes, bayonets and broadswords clashing.

The 144th Division is ambushing the Supply Troops of the 6th Division!

Inside the command post!

"They have also called in!"

"The little devils are just tigers without teeth!"

"Ask about the battle situation!"

From the telegram!

Yu Hua and Guo Xunqi both learned the current situation of the two Divisions!

"Now we should shell my Imperial Army!"

Although this supply force of nearly ten thousand devils is basically equipped with Light and Heavy Machine Guns and mortars!

They have no large-scale heavy weapons, but the combat effectiveness of this group of devils is not weak at all.

"Otherwise, they certainly would not have let the Imperial Army charge onto the first line of defense."

Tani Hisao waved his hand: "Kunisaki-kun, you are overthinking it!"

"Look..."

Guo Xunqi looked at Yu Hua: "Adjutant Yu!"

Hearing this!

The little devils were also shouting excitedly, wanting to cut off the heads of the Republic of China Army.

"Yosh!"

Kunisaki Noboru and Tani Hisao, these two old devils, were beaming with joy.

"Should this battle continue?"

"This must definitely continue!"

At the same time, the little devils in the ambush circle also dug simple fortifications and set up Light and Heavy Machine Gun positions.

"How is the battle with the little devils' Supply Troops going?"

"The 145th Division and the 146th Division!"

Tani Hisao put down his Telescope and said: "Look, the Sichuan Army on the first line of defense is already in a melee with the Imperial Army!"

"They are fighting very tenaciously, daring to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Imperial Warriors!"

Looking in the direction of Tani Hisao's finger!

Old Guo estimates that this battle will take another hour to end.

"Hai!" Tani Hisao's Adjutant nodded and bowed as he walked away.

And Kunisaki Noboru, who was on the side, heard Tani Hisao actually letting the artillery positions carry out rudimentary construction.

"Order them to hold their ground at all costs and block enemy reinforcements!"

"There is no need to follow the procedures by the book!"

"It seems the pressure on them is quite high!"

Sichuan Army soldiers were already engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the Imperial Army.

"Division Commander, Adjutant Yu!"

He stepped forward, his face showing some worry: "Tani Hisao-kun!"

He looked at Yu Hua: "Brother Yu!"

"Subjected to the Imperial Army's mortar bombardment, although the Sichuan Army's artillery has counterattacked!"

Guo Xunqi put down the Telescope in his hand!!

Rao Guohua put down the Telescope in his hand, "You quickly send a telegram to Adjutant Yu."

"Hai!" Tani Hisao's Adjutant nodded.

"Attack the 6th Division and the Kunisaki Detachment from the rear."

Regarding this, Kunisaki Noboru nodded: "Yosh!"

"Let the Sichuan Army taste the flavor of Imperial shells!"

Another detailed telegram was sent!

145th Division Deputy Division Commander Luo Jieying nodded, "Fine!"

"Tani Hisao-kun, your analysis makes a lot of sense."

The Sichuan Army, wearing gray military uniforms, had already become entangled with the devils wearing yellow military uniforms.

"The pressure on me here is too great!"

Yu Hua waved his hand: "Fight!"

Kunisaki Noboru now also believes that the Sichuan Army on the hilltop lacks large-scale artillery!

Hearing this!

"But, these are all small amounts of mortars."

The Independent 13th Brigade and Independent 14th Brigade on the outskirts of Jinshan County!

After receiving the telegram from Yu Hua, they immediately began moving toward the 6th Division and the Kunisaki Detachment.

The two Independent Brigades had a total combined strength of over fourteen thousand men!

They launched an attack from the rear of the 6th Division and the Kunisaki Detachment.

This could alleviate the pressure on both Rao Guohua and Liu Zhaoli!
