The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 465 Commander, the line of defense must not be lost (first update)
Lieutenant General Sato thought that the Independent Regiment had more artillery fire than him, and its artillery strength was stronger than him, and tried to reduce the probability of artillery position exposure by shortening the bombardment time.

But he overlooked another thing.

His garrison is only that big, surrounded by independent regiment troops, as long as the artillery exposes its position while firing high-explosive bombs, it will be watched by the independent regiment artillery observation post, no matter where they move or how fast they move, they will hide But observation post eyes.

"Boom boom boom..."

The sound of the explosion soon resounded in the circular position occupied by the assault battalion, the flames splashed, the bunkers were constantly blown up, and the soldiers were blown away...

As soon as the five rounds of shells were over, the second wave sent by Lieutenant General Sato launched an attack screaming, intending to take advantage of the chaos to regain the circular defense line.

The assault battalion lost an entire infantry company in the artillery coverage just now, but there are still two companies that can continue to fight...

When the devils rushed to 50 meters in front of the formation, the sound of fierce firefights sounded again.

"Boom boom boom..."

The grenadiers and mortars mounted on the position joined the battle at the same time, killing the little devils rushing behind the attacking troops from a long distance...

In the devil artillery position, as soon as the five rounds of shells were fired, dozens of gunners were busy dismantling the artillery and moving their positions

"Hurry up, don't be targeted by the artillery of the independent regiment..." The captain of the Devil Artillery Squadron went into battle in person, picked up a mortar barrel, and rushed to the reserve artillery position, shouting as he ran...

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

After running for more than 30 meters, the screaming sound of shells passing through the sky reached my ears, and the sound of violent explosions sounded behind me at the same time.

The scorching air wave swept towards his back, and he was almost overturned on the transfer road.

But the screams coming from behind meant that many gunners were still bombed...

The squadron leader can't control them.

What flew over just now were not only mountain artillery and infantry artillery shells, but also a large number of mortar shells.

They fired very fast, if they moved a little slower, and waited for the second round of shells to rain down, they might not be as lucky as before.

It was as if he didn't hear the screams behind him, and he didn't turn his head. He ran faster and faster, wanting to leave this dangerous area earlier...

"Rumble..."

The second round of explosions sounded very quickly, and to the surprise of the squadron leader, not only did the sound of the explosion not get farther and farther away because of his rapid retreat, but it became closer...

"Bageya Road, why are the shells from the Independence Regiment chasing us and blowing them up!" The squadron leader couldn't help cursing as he ran more and more wrong.

But none of the subordinates behind him answered this question.

When the third round of explosions was over, the squadron leader couldn't help but glanced behind him, and then his face became disastrous...

More than 40 subordinates lost more than half of them after only three rounds of shells, and there were less than [-] people left behind...

"Boom boom boom..."

The shelling is still going on, and every round of explosions has many gunners who were blown over and never got up again...

The fifth round of shells roared in. As soon as the sound of the explosion rang in the ears of the squadron leader, the whole person was blown up, and he lost consciousness before landing...

On the high ground next to the Japanese Army Command, Lieutenant General Sato was no longer in the mood to care about the battle situation in the other three directions of the garrison, and his attention was all focused on the east.

But none of the battles that took place here went his way.

First, the attacking troops were once again blocked by the independent regiment. Not only did they fail to take down the ring position, but they also lost troops in the battle and almost lost their combat effectiveness.

Then something happened to the artillery squadron.

I was already cautious enough. In order to prevent them from being locked by the independent regiment, I only fired five rounds of shells before moving the position. In the end, I was still targeted and almost wiped out the entire army...

Faced with one bad news after another, he hesitated, wondering whether he should continue to send troops to retake the ring position.

The chief of staff always insisted on his original idea. Seeing Lieutenant General Sato showing an unpredictable and hesitant expression, he was afraid that he would give up the circular position, so he quickly reminded: "Division commander... the circular position is the only line of defense in the garrison without gaps. Can't lose it!"

"Otherwise, the Independent Regiment can take the opportunity to expand the occupied area, attack the ring positions in other directions from the flanks, and then take down the entire line of defense..."

"Without the circular defense line, without the more than 1000 garrisons stationed on the circular defense line... our garrison will become riddled with holes and loopholes everywhere!"

"As long as the independent regiment is willing, it can break through our internal positions anytime and anywhere, and go straight to the division headquarters!"

"Although the reinforcements suffered heavy losses in the battle just now, they lost [-] if they killed one thousand enemies... The loss of the independent regiment is not much less!"

"As long as the troops continue to attack, at most two squadrons can be deployed to end the battle!"

Lieutenant General Sato was very reluctant, but the chief of staff's analysis was well-founded, and he couldn't find any reason to refute it.

Facing the longing eyes of his subordinates, he could only nod his head: "Two more infantry squadrons and two mortar squadrons will go up!"

"Everything you say this time will drive the Independence Group out of our station!"

At 05:30 in the morning, Wei Dayong not only repulsed the devils to attack again, but also counterattacked them, pushing the defensive position forward by more than 100 meters.

In this way, the corpses of the little devils who had fallen five to sixty meters in front of the formation were all separated by the assault battalion to the back of the formation.

As if picking up a gold ingot, Huang Yu immediately called the troops to take off the gas mask on the devil...

After repelling the devils' new round of attack again, decisively take the captured and retreat from the battlefield!
"Battalion Commander, we've made a fortune!"

Deputy Battalion Commander Li Wenhua caught up with Huang Yu to report, his face was full of smiles, he was happier than eating honey!

"In the assault on the circular position, we killed more than 320 devils..."

"During the defensive battle, we repelled nine attacks by the devils, including six squadron-scale attacks...the total number of annihilated enemies exceeded four infantry squadrons..."

"There are 696 gas masks seized from devils alone..."

"That's not counting the little devils who were beaten to death outside the camp... All of them must be more than eleven hundred..."

"Six heavy machine guns, 38 light machine guns, and more than 900 rifles were also seized..."

"It's just that they were destroyed a lot during the battle. After making up for the battle damage, there are still two heavy machine guns, 12 light machine guns, and less than [-] rifles left!"

Huang Yu asked with anticipation: "That means the total number of devils eliminated by the assault battalion tonight exceeded 100..."

Li Wensheng said very firmly: "There should be more than 1000 to [-] people..."

"A lot of devils' corpses were blown up during the battle, and their gas masks were destroyed... These little devils must add up to more than 100 people!"

"What about our own casualties?" Huang Yu continued to ask,

"365 people were sacrificed and 25 people were seriously injured... Only 218 people in the whole battalion can continue to fight!" Li Wensheng's expression suddenly became serious.

"If it weren't for the dawn, the assault battalion would be wiped out for at most an hour and a half!"
