My Head of the Huaxia Expeditionary Force

Chapter 218
"Zawada! Surround from the west, pay attention to the shooting port on the top of the tree fort!"

"Uehara, the machine gun is here, Hideo, hurry up!"

……

The squad leader Zhonggu was directing his soldiers to rush towards the tree fort. Besides his squad, there were other comrades in the squadron around. Nearly 200 people lined up in a skirmish line and attacked Long Wenwen and them like a wave.

Xiufu took a [-] rifle and crossed the trenches. He secretly swore that today he must kill a few Chinese people to avenge his brother and dead comrades!

Now there is still 100 meters away from the tree fort, and another squadron is ready to follow up, but most of the Japanese soldiers have no idea, because the tree fort has not fired yet, like a bird with a bloody mouth The monster crawled quietly on the spot.

"Scatter and scatter, pay attention to the distance of the skirmisher line, Zetian, your soldiers don't leave the team."

"Bang bang bang bang...!"

Before Nakatani finished speaking, countless machine guns opened fire on the front of the tree fort, and dense bullets shot at them. The fastest-moving Zetian unit was immediately covered by bullets, and eight or nine soldiers were shot instantly. When he fell down, the squad leader Zetian's body was also ugly.

"Spread out! Rush into the ditch ahead!"

Nakatani shouted loudly, and the remaining soldiers of the team braved the intensive firepower and rushed forward desperately. Along the way, Japanese soldiers were constantly hit by bullets, and the adjacent teams also suffered the same blow.
There is an open field of more than 200 meters between the three defenses and the tree fort. Takeuchi cut down all the trees here. There are no dead spots on the bare hills. This was originally a "shooting range" for the Chinese people, but unexpectedly Enjoy it first.

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhh..."

"Bang bang... puff puff puff!"

The bullets hit the tree fort, and the Japanese light and heavy machine guns kept firing, trying to suppress the enemy, but in front of this perfect fortification, it was difficult for the Japanese firepower to cause damage to the commandos.

Zhonggu was leaning against the trench and gasping for breath. After a brief exchange of fire, a team of more than 50 people could rush to less than half of the middle trench.

Xiufu also jumped into the trench with his men, counted the number of people, and there were only 6 people left in his squad.

"Is there anyone else?" Zhonggu asked hurriedly.

"Squad leader, both Zetian and Uehara died in battle, and the entire team is still alive here." Hideo replied hastily.

"Xiufu! Lead the soldiers and continue to charge forward!" Nakatani roared viciously.

Although the attacking squadron suffered heavy losses, soldiers from behind continued to attack forward, and the momentum of the charge could not be interrupted. As long as they could get close to the tree fort, they would have a chance.

"But... captain, let's hold our ground here and wait for backup to come up before we charge." Xiufu hesitated, he didn't agree with this kind of mindless charge, especially in the face of the enemy's unreasonable firepower.

"Baga! The warriors of the empire are fearless, you immediately..."

"boom!"

Zhongtani's position was suddenly bombarded, and a shell hit him directly in front of him. Hideo hurriedly shrank to the ground with his head covered, and the sand from the blast splashed all over his body.

Although the 37mm shells are not powerful, they are very penetrable, and the soil piles on the trenches are not enough to withstand the blows of the shells.

Zhongguzheng was directly blown into two halves, leaving only half of his body with one arm in place, and the other half was blown to nowhere by the explosion.

Hideo's eyes widened, and he quickly exposed his head to observe.

On the other side of the tree fort, the Chinese actually pushed a Type 94 37mm rapid-fire gun to the door, shooting wildly at the Japanese soldiers hiding in the trench.

As a direct-pointing anti-tank gun, the Type 94 has a relatively high shooting speed, and it is very handy for hitting infantry and machine guns hiding behind bunkers.

"Boom! Boom!..."

Shells kept bombarding the trenches, but as more and more Japanese soldiers rushed up, the squadron leader's whistle sounded, which was an order to charge!

"Kill!"

"what!"

Hideo tightened his grip on the rifle, roared and rushed out with his companions. Numerous Japanese shouted and jumped out of the trench, charging towards the tree fort again.

"Shhhhhhhhh"

"Pfft... ah!"

The road to the charge was extremely difficult, with dense bullets constantly pouring out of the shooting port, and pieces of Japanese soldiers fell down like harvested wheat, leaving a lot of corpses on the road leading to the tree fort.

Hideo turned back left and right with his head sullen, using flexible tactics to avoid bullets while running forward.As an experienced veteran, he knew that stopping and shooting now would have no effect at all. Only by keeping approaching the enemy could he have a chance to fight back.

"Puff puff……"

A string of bullets shot at the front of the Japanese soldiers was beaten into blood mist, Hideo was terrified, he used all his strength to rush to the tunnel next to him, but the soldiers behind him had no time to dodge, and were shot to death one after another.

"Hu... huh!"

Hideo leaned against the pit panting heavily, and only one young soldier was left watching him in horror.

"Sir, what should we do?"

"Chew Domade! Wait... wait for the people behind to catch up before rushing." Xiufu said in shock. The rest of the team didn't know, but they were the only ones in his squad who were still alive.

Captain Hattori Jiro put two squadrons on the battlefield, but the soldiers were suppressed by the enemy's firepower very bleakly, so far they have not even scored 50 meters.

The squadron in front was almost completely lost, and the soldiers who followed up were also fighting very hard. The casualties of the team continued to increase. Just when he was considering whether to push the last squadron up, there was a sudden burst of sharp noise in the sky. whistling.

"Bombardment! Stop attacking and withdraw the artillery!"

Hattori's shouts were not as fast as cannonballs. The entire battlefield in front of the tree fort was covered by bullets, and the cannonballs swished down like raindrops.The sudden shelling brought disaster to the attacking Japanese army!
"Boom! Boom! Boom..."

"Ah! Damn Chinese people! Ah...my hand..."

A Japanese soldier was holding his stumped arm, slumped on the ground and cursing non-stop. The bloody cut was still spurting out. Beside him were all corpses lying on the ground, and there was no one alive.

Many soldiers who were still charging forward were blasted into the air with their guns. On this bare hill, no matter how wide the skirmish line was, it would not be able to withstand this kind of covering artillery fire.

The attacking team of hundreds of people was blown upside down, limbs and arms were everywhere, and the Chinese even used white phosphorous bombs. Many Japanese soldiers were burned until their bones were exposed, and screams filled the entire battlefield.

If you continue to stay here, you think your life is too long, and you don’t need to give orders from the chief. After a symbolic persistence, all the Japanese soldiers who were still alive ran back as if they were fleeing for their lives, but...the number of soldiers who could be withdrawn was already less than a hundred. .

At 10:35, the first Japanese attack ended in failure.

……

"Your Excellency, Captain, the Fourth Battalion's attack has been frustrated, the tree fort...it's too difficult to attack, the artillery fire from the Chinese..." Chief of Staff Yoshino reported the situation on the front line with difficulty.

"Needless to say, I can see it!" Takeuchi Lianshan glared at Yoshino, his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked furious like a wounded lion.

"Hey!"

Yoshino responded and quickly backed off. The captain was in a bad mood, so it's better to say less at this time.

The current situation is really irritating. Takeuchi knows how perfect the defense of the tree castle is. It's all his fault.

The machine gun ammunition stored in the tree fort has now become a sharp weapon to kill and injure his own soldiers, and he has nothing to do with it.Coupled with the fact that the Huaxia people at the foot of the mountain were staring at them but their purpose was unknown, he felt a rush of anger when he thought of this.

"Pause the attack, let the fourth brigade focus on containment, and look for opportunities from the underground passage." After thinking for a while, Takeuchi was about to temporarily give up his plan to take back the tree fort.

The Huaxia people's support artillery fire was too fast, and the attack of one squadron by squadron became a refueling tactic. The pressure on the frontal defense line was also great. He had to guard against the Huaxia people by the river. He felt that there was no need to send a large number of troops to fight. A small tree fort.

This goddamn mouse is really a mouse drilling into both ends of the bellows to get angry, Takeuchi was extremely aggrieved, he walked back and forth in the headquarters for several times, and finally made up his mind.

"Call Tengchong and ask for air tactical guidance!"

"Your Excellency, the captain, the head of the division may not agree to this request." Yoshino was a little embarrassed, after all, the situation was no longer the same as before.

At present, the Army Air Force over there in Tengchong will start a small-scale air battle with the Air Force Task Force in China (the disbanded Flying Tigers) soon after.

Coupled with the fact that there are more Chinese troops in that direction, it is hard to believe that the commander of the division will take the risk to support Nantianmen. After all, the commander of the regiment has robbed him too much of the limelight during this time.

"Slap!" Takeuchi slapped Yoshino's face fiercely, and roared furiously:

"Baga! If you don't agree, you have to agree! If he disagrees, contact Commander Iijima and tell them that if the Nantianmen falls, Tengchong, Longling, and even the entire Nujiang River will collapse. There is an army!
"Hey!"

Yoshino, who was slapped, didn't dare to say anything more, so he hurriedly resigned and sent the report honestly
Still hesitating when to come, do you have to wait until the Chinese people plant a flag on the top of Nantianmen Mountain to know the seriousness of the matter?

After getting angry, Takeuchi sat down on the stool and slowly breathed a sigh of relief. He picked up the water glass on the table and took a sip. After thinking about it, he decided to deal with the Huaxia people on the front line of defense first.

After all, the top of the mountain is just a very small army. As long as the front line of defense is not lost, the group of hateful rats will be a lone army, and it will not be too late to deal with them when they are free.

But... the "mouse king" on the top of the mountain obviously didn't want to give him more time to breathe.

In the direction of the tree castle... the huge loudspeaker that can cover half of the Nantianmen suddenly heard a playful shout: "Hey? Takeuchi Lianshan! Can you hear it?"
