My Head of the Huaxia Expeditionary Force

Chapter 440 Bloody Battle on the Hillside

After 5 minutes of continuous bombardment, the artillery regiment began to reduce the frequency of shelling and extended the firepower net to the rear of the enemy.

At this time, Long Wenwen issued an order to attack across the board. The first main force regiment and the second main force regiment advanced southward from Xibu, while the 200th division was divided into two, and cooperated with the third main force regiment and the engineering regiment to attack from the southwest of Lashio. The main position of the Japanese army.

Before the Japanese had time to catch their breath, countless Huaxia soldiers rushed towards their positions shouting.The mortars of the squad began to exert their power to cover the advance of the infantry, and the tanks and armored vehicles took the lead on the traffic arteries, ruthlessly piercing through the seemingly solid fortifications.

"Let the infantry of the third regiment quickly follow up, this place is not comparable to the plain, pay attention to the enemy's sneak attack from both sides!"

"Pay attention to the speed of each vehicle, and must advance synchronously with the infantry."

In the tank command vehicle, Yuan Li used the radio to direct the deployment of the convoys. Large-scale concentrated assaults cannot be realized in the jungle. Tanks and armored vehicles can only be used as supporting weapons to accompany the infantry in action, providing fire support as much as possible and reducing infantry losses.

The engine roared loudly along with the billowing smoke. This time the chariot battalion and 200 mechanized troops acted together. More than [-] chariots of various types were scattered among several main attacking troops and rolled towards the little devil.

The fighter planes in the sky returned to the battlefield after a round of refueling, roaring and galloping overhead.

"Each position nitsuku, machine gunner ready!"

"Pay attention to concealment, move the ammunition box up!"

"Hey!"

……

On the Japanese positions, countless little devils shuttled back and forth in the trenches under artillery fire. The enemy was already approaching, and the nervousness occupied everyone's heart.

"Ryota! Why してるの? Hurry up and come over here!"

"Ah? I know...I know."

Under the gaze of the team leader, Liang Tai who was hiding in the corner of the artillery fortifications got out helplessly, but was scolded by the former for his dodgy eyes:
"Baga! Like a coward, you have lost the face of the empire!"

"Hey!" Liangtai could only bow her head and suffer, but her heart was already terrified.

Just now, he saw with his own eyes that the veteran who was talking to him was blasted into two pieces by a shell, and countless companions were turned into pieces by the shelling. If he hadn't run fast... probably the result would be the same .

The comrades around did not mock him, because everyone is similar at this moment, no one is not nervous, timid before fighting, fear has already penetrated into the hearts of the people...

In the face of the enemy's terrifying firepower, not to mention a recruit like him who has only joined the army for a few months, even a veteran who has fought for seven or eight years has no idea, and they even know better what kind of bloody battle they will encounter next.

"The Chinese are here!"

I don't know who yelled first, and everyone immediately pointed their guns at the outside of the trench. Before they could react, the other party had already pointed their guns at them...

boom!
"what…!"

A tank shell blasted a gap in the trench in an instant, and a few unlucky guys were blown away on the spot. Immediately afterwards, dense bullets rushed in, and a lot of dust was splashed on the sandbags. The little devils with exposed heads fell to the ground one after another. .

"Fire!" The team leader immediately pulled out his samurai sword and shouted with fanatical eyes.

The battle was extremely fierce. Several heavy machine gun firepower points on the Japanese army's positions spewed out fire snakes. In the trenches... the little devil's 99 rifles, Type [-], and grenade grenades were desperately calling down the mountain... Although they were all old-fashioned weapons, they A powerful firepower net is still erupting.

Although there are not many trees on the mountain, the mountain is rugged, and it is basically difficult for Sherman tanks to go up, so they can only stay at the bottom to serve as fire support.

"Commander Zhao, the tanks can't go up, but we have a few Greyhound armored vehicles coming here, they can attack with the infantry, don't charge too fast later, pay attention to cooperate."

The first battalion of the third regiment took the lead. Battalion Commander Zhao Deshui patted Sherman next to him and said gratefully, "Okay! Thank you for your hard work, brother!"

The tank company commander on the Sherman turret nodded to him and climbed back into the vehicle.

"Pass my order. Later, the first company will cooperate with the brothers in the chariot battalion to launch a frontal attack, the second company will be in the middle to support, and the third company will serve as the reserve team. The guard platoon, follow me!"

After arranging the tactical plan, Zhao Deshui personally led people to the front line, and he was bound to win the mountain in the shortest possible time.

The mortar company of the first battalion is already in place, and the soldiers are not in a hurry, waiting for the arrival of the Greyhound chariot.Courage is needed, but there is no need to make unnecessary sacrifices at this time, the best tactic is to win with the least cost.

"Mortar battery, 1 minute rapid fire! Get ready..."

"All tanks, smoke bombs ready!"

"Fire!"

huh, huh, huh...

60mm mortars and 81mm mortars, as company-level fire support weapons, can approach the front line of the battlefield with infantry, and deal fatal blows to the enemy at a position of 500 meters.

The Japanese army's position was once again surrounded by artillery shells, and the explosion sent mud flying everywhere. The little devil was so blown up by the sudden firepower that he couldn't hold his head up.

Zhao Deshui stared at the pocket watch in his hand, and at the same time silently checked the time in his heart. He wanted to use half a minute before the shelling stopped to launch a small-scale infantry coordination.

Just 30 seconds later, he immediately took out his pistol and fired into the sky, raising his arms and shouting: "Brothers! Go!"

"kill!"

The soldiers shouted slogans and rushed forward. The offensive tactics between squads and platoons were still dominated by three-person teams, but this time they used armored vehicles as the core, and they advanced slowly with the vehicles, constantly destroying the enemy during the attack. The vital force, reduce their own losses.

The five Greyhound armored vehicles spewed out huge black exhaust from the rear, followed the infantry and rushed forward slowly. Even on such a hillside, the dexterous body can maintain good mobility.

The devils also realized that the enemy had started a fierce attack, but the shelling from the other side still did not stop. The Japanese soldiers in the trenches did not dare to show their heads and fire at all. Only a few machine gun bunkers were not afraid of shells, and kept shooting at the crowd below.

"Pay attention to concealment! Try to use armored vehicles as cover!"

Although the three-person tactical team was scattered widely, many soldiers were hit by the sudden density of bullets during the charge. The leaders of each squad and platoon hurriedly arranged the direction of attack, and at the same time called the soldiers to counterattack.

boom!boom!
The Greyhound armored vehicle was equipped with a 37-caliber anti-tank gun. It was not very good for hitting the Japanese firepower at this time. Those motionless bunkers became living targets in their eyes.

At this moment, several smoke bombs exploded on the Japanese army's position, and the thick white smoke gradually filled the entire mountain, completely blocking the sight of the little devil.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the soldiers of the attacking company quickly stepped forward and rushed towards the position.

"Tiannao black card, onboard!"

Seeing that the battle situation took a turn for the worse, it would be over if the opponent rushed into the position. The Japanese commander was desperate and ordered the soldiers to launch a countercharge.

Hundreds of little devils followed the sergeant and the lieutenant, holding high the one-meter-long [-] big cover, and kept yelling that His Majesty the Emperor would live forever, and rushed out of the position recklessly.

Under the coercion of some fanatics, even the timid recruits had to rush forward with the crowd.

The black crowd was menacing, and at first glance it was a little frightening, but the soldiers had long been accustomed to this kind of lifeless long live charge, and Zhao Deshui, who was on the front line, even showed a cruel smile.

"Stop advancing! Set up a defensive line on the spot and hit me hard!"

We are not afraid of the Japanese's brainless charge, but we are afraid that their dogs will not come out of the bunker. The soldiers of the three regiments with powerful individual firepower are not afraid of any human attack at all.
