Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 699 Can't stand it anymore? (Third update!)

After the devil was covered by a heavy machine gun, he rushed forward for more than ten meters and had to stop again.

The 12th and [-]th companies joined the battle together, relying on their strength, they directly suppressed the devils' counterattack firepower.

As the Rongjun led the heavy machine gun platoon with six heavy machine guns to join the battle, the attacking devils were completely suppressed.

"Cover with grenades, knock out the eight-way heavy machine gun, and the covering troops will retreat~" The devil squadron leader knew that he would not be able to regain the security position. Although he was very unwilling, he still made a decisive decision to retreat.

"Battalion Commander, the devils have retreated!" Jin Kai reported with a sigh of relief.

"If you can't win, you want to run! How can there be such a good thing: Comrades, the time for revenge has come, heavy machine guns cover, the troops press up, chase after their buttocks and beat them, I want to wipe them all!" Rong Jun took revenge Anger ordered!
"Don't be idle, artillerymen, watch them blow me up, and shoot out all the shells!"

At this time, the grenade launcher behind the Devils fired, a string of grenades hit, and two heavy machine guns were blown away on the spot.

Rong Jun was even angrier. He didn't expect these devils to bite him back before they died. He followed the order: "Strengthen the firepower and kill the devil's grenade shooter!"

Then he did not forget to scold: "What do the artillerymen do? Why don't you fire the cannons? Do you want to see these devils slipping away from our noses!"

Cannonballs, bullets, fly towards the devils like money.

The devils who were retreating were constantly being beaten to death and fell on the way to retreat.

The squadron leader was heartbroken when he saw the sharp drop in the number of troops under his command, but he had no choice but to order the troops to continue to retreat.

The firepower of the new regiment is too strong, if they stay, the losses of the troops will be even greater!
On the frontal battlefield, the Japanese security positions were already covered with bomb craters.The shelling of the mountain artillery continued, but it was hard to see the devils being blown away.

Wang Ping saw the crux of the problem at a glance, and then ordered: "The devils are hiding, and Xiong Changhe is ordered to lead the charge once, and all light and heavy machine guns provide fire cover. If you can charge up, charge, and if you can't charge, retreat immediately. The artillery Keep firing, and force the devils hiding in the crater to come out and blow them up!"

"Sir, the Eighth Route Army is attacking!" Soon, the squadron leader hiding in the crater suddenly heard a reminder from his subordinates.

More than 100 Eighth Route Army lined up a line of skirmishers that I had never seen before, and they approached me cautiously.

The squadron leader immediately had a very bad premonition, frowned and ordered: "All those who can still move stand up, shoot, and block the eight-way attacking troops. Even if the entire army dies, we must hold the position!"

There was still no movement just now, and more than 100 devils appeared all at once.

Relying on the shell craters everywhere, they desperately fought back.

The power of the three-three tactic is fully demonstrated here. The gunshots on the devil's security position are very dense, but the casualties of the attacking troops are not very large.

More importantly, many fighters have been able to shoot while attacking.

Coupled with the dense bullets fired from the light and heavy machine guns behind them, the losses of the attacking troops were not much different from those of the Devils' defenders. This was already a miracle for the attacking troops.

However, Wang Ping was not satisfied with the result.

After leaving the mountain, every victory of the Xinyi Regiment was piled up by soldiers with corpses, and all three battalions were maimed.If the combat troops suffer heavy losses again, the entire new regiment will be disabled.As the regiment leader, Wang Ping absolutely does not allow this kind of thing to happen.

He ordered decisively: "The attacking troops stay hidden on the spot, the artillery fires immediately, and the troops continue to attack after the 3-minute firepower raid is over!"

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..." as the shells slashed across the battlefield, the devil's face turned pale, and he subconsciously retracted his body into the shell crater to avoid the shelling.

Soon, the thick smoke from the shelling covered the battlefield.

Because the shelling came so suddenly, many devils had no time to react, and the shells fell down.

The 5-minute shelling time is not long, but for the devils who have no artillery to counterattack and have insufficient troops, these 5 minutes are particularly long and very difficult.

The bombardment ended, and the blocking battle began. The squadron leader found out tragically that there were only more than 50 subordinates who could move in the position, and most of the light and heavy machine guns were destroyed!
With this little force and firepower, it is impossible to block the Eighth Route Army's attack.

Wang Ping also saw that the devils were short of troops, so he ordered with excitement on his face: "Tell Xiong Changhe, the devils are almost blown up, this time attack directly and occupy the devils' guard position!"

"The artillerymen continued to fire, and fired 50 meters behind the devil's security position. It seems that there are devils digging trenches there. They must not be allowed to dig. Otherwise, the cost of our total annihilation of them will increase by at least [-]%!"

"Boom..." The sound of the explosion exploded directly next to the trench where Lieutenant Qinggang was very close.

A shell landed right in the trench, killing two Japs wielding sapper shovels.

A mountain artillery shell that exploded at close range also blew up the half-dug trench, creating a hole nearly two meters wide.

"Baga, we were discovered by the devils! The troops in front must be unable to hold on any longer, everyone hurry up and continue to deepen the trenches!" Lieutenant Qinggang shouted with a sullen face and a heavy tone.

Suddenly, the communications soldiers of the third squadron rushed over: "Sir, the eighth attacking route behind has occupied our security position and is attacking into our garrison to break through. We are desperately resisting, but the enemy has a lot of artillery, we don't have it, and the troops are lost. It’s huge, so it won’t hold up for too long!”

Except for the more than 300 people who were digging trenches in front of him, Lieutenant Qing Gang didn't have a single subordinate in his hands.

And whether the circular trench in front of him can be successfully dug before the Eighth Route Army attacks, determines whether he can defend here until dawn.

Therefore, for the sake of the overall situation, it is impossible for him to send his subordinates who are digging trenches there.

After thinking about it, he ordered: "Go back and tell your squadron leader that I have no reinforcements for her. But, from now on, the third squadron can't take a step back!"

"Yes, sir!" The communications soldier turned around and rushed towards the battlefield not far away.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo..."

After running less than 20 meters, a mountain cannon shell with a howling sound hit him, blowing him into the sky.

Lieutenant Assistant Qinggang did not see this scene, and the third squadron did not receive the order to defend.

Under the combined attack of light and heavy machine guns and artillery, they continued to retreat.

The Rongjun led hundreds of people from the fourth battalion, sticking closely behind them, harvesting their lives with bullets.

In less than 5 minutes, the bullets and shells fired by the fourth battalion hit the surrounding area of ​​Qinggang Zhongzuo.

"Baga, who told the third squadron to retreat, I will shoot their squadron leader!" Lieutenant Assistant Qing Gang cried out.

A subordinate next to him gritted his teeth and begged to fight: "Sir, I will bring a small team over there to withstand their attack!"

"How do you stand up? The Eight Route Army has all kinds of weapons, and we have several light and heavy machine guns. If you go up now, not only will you not be able to withstand it, but you will die in vain!" Lieutenant Assistant Qinggang cursed loudly before losing his mind.

Then he ordered: "Don't dig the trenches, everyone enters the trenches immediately and prepares to fight!"

"Contact the third squadron, retreat immediately, and retreat to our circular fortification. Since you have retreated here, don't go outside to die!"
