A Journey Through the Worlds of Film and Television

The enemy's remaining artillery fire did not stop from the second half of the night to the early morning, as if they wanted to fire all the remaining shells and thoroughly plow the Nantianmen several times. However, at this time, there were only more than a hundred veterans left on the Nantianmen position, squatting leisurely in the cat ear cave, listening to the continuous artillery fire and paying attention to the situation below. After a night of fighting, more than 1,500 war points were accumulated in the system. Lieutenant Colonel Tachibana Kio and the majors alone contributed five or six hundred war points. Lu Cheng glanced at the functions in the system, and then stopped his sight on the thermal sensing radar upgrade option. "Prompt, do you want to spend 1500 war points to upgrade a thermal sensing radar?"

"Yes!"

"1500 war points will be deducted, the thermal sensing radar will be upgraded, the scanning range will be increased to 2000 meters, and new functions will be added: IFF module, and hostile target approach warning module."

The 2000-meter scanning range has exceeded the effective range of the current rifle, and the enemy can be detected in advance at a farther distance.

Moreover, the two new functions are also very useful. The IFF module can avoid accidental injury to friendly forces, and can even identify spies in the crowd.

The hostile target approach warning function allows Lu Cheng to rest assured, without worrying about the devils coming up while he is asleep.

As soon as the sky was bright, the artillery fire of the devils finally stopped. Lu Cheng immediately ordered the soldiers hiding on the back of the mountain to quickly enter the trenches and wait for the devils' attack.

As soon as the soldiers climbed over the hillside and entered the trenches, there were two or three squadrons below, five or six hundred devils, who took advantage of the hillside to launch a charge.

The light and heavy machine guns and light and heavy mortars on the Nantianmen sounded almost at the same time, and various bullets and shells were poured down from a high position, instantly knocking down a large number of the Japanese soldiers who were rushing in front.

But the Japanese soldiers didn't seem to care about casualties at all, and continued to launch crazy attacks. As long as they got closer, they started to set up heavy machine guns and grenade launchers and fired at the positions.

Lu Cheng had already selected a group of soldiers with good marksmanship, forming two or three sniper platoons, distributed in three directions, to snipe the Japanese grenade launchers and heavy machine guns.

At the same time, the mortars and heavy machine guns on the hillside also fired back at the Japanese soldiers.

After losing the advantage of artillery, the Japanese soldiers' rigid tactics showed their disadvantages, and the charge only increased casualties.

Lu Cheng wandered around the position, operating the heavy machine gun from time to time, sweeping down a large number of Japanese soldiers, and instructing some soldiers from time to time on how to kill the Japanese soldiers while protecting themselves.

Less than half an hour later, the first wave of the Japanese attack was repelled, leaving only more than 200 corpses on the battlefield.

After a series of battles, the strength comparison between the expeditionary force on the mountain and the Takeuchi Regiment at the foot of the mountain was constantly narrowing and reversing.

At the beginning, there were more than 2,000 Japanese soldiers and more than 1,700 expeditionary soldiers, so the number was not advantageous.

But now, in addition to the more than 200 new recruits who withdrew to the east bank and a small number of casualties, there are still nearly 1,500 people on the hillside.

The Takeuchi Regiment at the foot of the mountain, which can still maintain combat effectiveness at this time, also has about 1,500 people left.

Accumulating small victories, becoming big victories, changing the balance of war, and thus winning with fewer troops.

Seeing that the attacking Japanese soldiers were easily repelled, leaving a large number of corpses, the morale on the battlefield was unprecedentedly high, and the soldiers no longer feared the Japanese soldiers. Some soldiers even began to think that if the superiors led them to rush, could they directly kill the Japanese regiment below?

However, before the soldiers could enjoy the fruits of victory and go to clean up the battlefield, Lu Cheng ordered again: "Go into the cave, avoid artillery fire!"

For a while, the soldiers hid in the cat-ear caves and foxholes in the trenches to avoid artillery fire.

As soon as the Japanese troops retreated to the foot of the mountain, they were immediately covered by a large area of ​​artillery shells.

But this artillery fire lasted less than half an hour and stopped. Obviously, the Japanese artillery shells were running out.

Due to timely avoidance, not many soldiers died in the artillery fire. Only one was unlucky and was hit by an artillery shell.

There were also some wounded soldiers who were injured by shock and stray bullets.

Lu Cheng took out some life-saving pills and asked veterinarian Hao to take the medical team to transfer and treat the light and serious wounded.

Lu Cheng also specially selected fifty first-class soldiers to carry stretchers and transfer the wounded.

Soon, just as the artillery sound stopped, the Japanese fired a smoke bomb in front of the position, followed by more

The Japanese rushed up the hillside under the cover of smoke.

However, Lu Cheng had already seen through the heat-sensing radar and personally commanded the light and heavy machine guns and mortars to shoot at the Japanese hiding in the smoke.

Facts have proved that smoke bombs did not provide much cover for the Japanese, but prevented the Japanese from hitting the soldiers on the position.

After the smoke dissipated, most of the Japanese who charged this time had been killed or wounded, and more people were lost than last time.

When the remaining Japanese retreated to the foot of the mountain, they dared not launch a charge again for a while.

At the foot of the mountain, Takeuchi Renshan listened to the losses reported by his soldiers, and his head was about to explode. In less than two days, the Takeuchi Corps had lost more than half of its troops and had not yet captured a hilltop.

Originally, in order to preserve the honor of the Takeuchi Corps, Takeuchi Renshan had never asked for help from above, but now that the battle had become so terrible, Takeuchi Renshan had to ask for help.

In order to prevent the expeditionary army from rushing down the hillside, Takeuchi Renzan even ordered the entire army to retreat three kilometers away from Nantianmen.

Seeing that the devils at the foot of the mountain actually retreated on their own initiative, the expeditionary soldiers on the hillside cheered immediately. Many even jumped out of the trenches, came to the hillside, and shouted to the friendly forces on the east bank: "We won! We won again!"

Since the outbreak of the war, China has lost more than it has won, lost cities and land, and lost countless soldiers. Many soldiers have even fought for several years and experienced dozens of failures without winning a decent battle.

But after following Lu Cheng, it didn't take long for them to win battles one after another. Killing devils was as easy as eating and drinking water. How could these soldiers not be proud?

Lu Cheng was not blinded by victory. Although he had crippled the Takeuchi Regiment, if he really rushed up and fought the remaining devils, there would definitely be considerable casualties.

Since Lu Cheng promised the soldiers that he would take them home, he would not let them suffer too many casualties.

At present, the Takeuchi Regiment will temporarily retreat, and they will definitely request reinforcements later. The longer they delay, the more enemies there will be.

Moreover, after a series of battles, the Japanese will definitely defend themselves tightly, and it will not be so easy to achieve a big victory like now.

Just as the soldiers were cleaning the battlefield, Lu Cheng and Long Wenjian stood on the hillside, looking at the Nujiang defense line across the river with binoculars.

"Look, our Yu Tuanzuo finally appeared by the river. Haha, he killed a battalion commander just like killing a chicken, which is really tough."

"It seems that the deployment on the east bank will be completed soon. We should leave today."

Across the river, since more than 200 second-class soldiers retreated to the other side of the river yesterday, the military commissioner has been guarding the riverside, always paying attention to the battle on Nantianmen.

Lu Cheng became famous internationally this time. The Allied Commander-in-Chief praised him by name, and the principal also specifically told him that he had a promising future and was a rising star in the military.

This special envoy was sent to issue a letter of appointment to Lu Cheng. Of course, he had a detailed understanding of Lu Cheng's background and wanted to build a good relationship with him.

After the battlefield was cleaned up, Lu Cheng ordered all the privates and corporals to withdraw from Nantianmen and cross the river with the wounded.

Among the 1,500 people, privates and corporals accounted for the majority, and the rest were officers and non-commissioned officers.

With so many people leaving at once, Lu Cheng also asked them to take away many extra weapons and equipment and assist in the deployment of defense after reaching the other side.

By the afternoon, there were only 600 people left on the hill.

In the afternoon, after confirming that the deployment of defense on the east bank was completed and the Japanese would not attack for a while, Lu Cheng ordered the troops to continue to evacuate in batches, leaving 100 commandos to provide the final cover.

Because there were many captured light and heavy machine guns, it was not until the evening that the soldiers and equipment were fully transported.

At this time, the Japanese aerial reconnaissance plane arrived nearby and noticed the situation on Nantianmen.

Then, Takeuchi Renzan immediately led his troops to attack Nantianmen, but when he rushed to the middle of the hillside, many people were killed and injured by various booby traps and landmines...
