At the same time.

A few miles away.

The 28th Regiment led by Ding Wei had already fought with the devils.

Da da da.

Da da da.

The machine guns were firing wildly.

The Eighth Route Army soldiers were naturally not ambiguous in the face of the devils, and they continued to launch fierce attacks.

Although they did not have a strong artillery coverage capability like the Anti-Japanese Battalion, they had nearly a battalion of troops after all. At this time, all of them were lying in the simple fortifications behind the hillside, which naturally gave the devils a great deterrent and casualties.

In just a few minutes.

Nearly 20 to 30 devils fell quickly.

"Well done!"

Ding Wei couldn't help but be happy when he saw this.

However.

This situation did not last long.

In the absence of continuous firepower cover from heavy weapons, this elite devil squadron quickly stabilized its formation.

They quickly used the two mortars and six grenade launchers in their hands to start a crazy counterattack. In just a moment, they suppressed the firepower output of the 28th Regiment and charged up from the surrounding slopes.

Dadada.

Dadada.

All the soldiers fired wildly.

Finally.

They relied on the terrain to suppress the Japanese's charge.

"Captain!"

Seeing this, Sun Desheng said worriedly: "The Japanese have stabilized their formation now. Their firepower is too strong. I'm afraid we can't hold them off for long!"

"It's really hateful!"

Ding Wei's face also looked quite ugly. He gritted his teeth and muttered: "If there were two more mortars, even two grenade launchers would be fine!"

Yes.

Reality is so cruel.

Such ambush battles are definitely the forte of the Eighth Route Army. In the past, they always relied on this tactic to kill many Japanese.

But the same.

In many cases, the results were not ideal, and the reason was the lack of heavy firepower output.

Often the first or second round could catch the Japanese off guard, but in the absence of artillery and other offensive means, this advantage could not be expanded at all. Instead, the Japanese relied on their own weapons and equipment to quickly stabilize their formation and eventually launch a counterattack.

So that in the end.

All previous efforts would be in vain.

Whoosh.

Whoosh.

At this moment.

The Japanese artillery in the distance quickly bombarded two more shells.

Bang!

Bang!

The two explosions resounded at the front of the hillside position, and successfully suppressed their own firepower output.

"Captain"

A staff officer next to him also shouted anxiously: "The firepower of the Japanese is too strong! This time we came out lightly and didn't carry much ammunition. If this continues, the enemy will come sooner or later."

"Hit them all hard!"

Ding Wei had naturally seen this point a long time ago, but he gritted his teeth and said: "Since we promised them to hold on for half an hour, we must do it!"

"Captain is right!"

At this time, Sun Desheng's blood was already aroused, and he kept pulling the trigger, and said loudly: "If our battalion can't hold on for half an hour against a mere Japanese squadron, we may let others laugh at us! Brothers, we must hold on!"

Everyone was also very angry.

"Alas--"

The staff officer could only sigh when he heard this.

Da da da.

Da da da.

Many Eighth Route Army soldiers kept raising their old rifles and launched rounds of hard blocking.

The war was raging.

Seeing that his side was struggling against a mere squadron, even Ding Wei couldn't help but have doubts at this time: "The combat effectiveness of the Japanese battalion is several times stronger than these, and Lu Zhixian has almost the same number of people as us. Can they really wipe out a whole battalion of the Japanese?"

...

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The shells were like a torrential rain.

On the road under the hillside in the distance, an extremely dense bombing broke out.

"Bomb it for me! Bomb it to death!"

At this time, Yang Zhihua, who was standing on the hilltop position, quickly issued an order, and his eyes were also very happy: "The battalion commander has ordered that there is no need to save shells! This time our artillery company must show its power!"

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

As soon as the voice fell.

Another round of nearly ten shells rained down.

At first, the Japanese wanted to hold their positions and retreat step by step, but how could they resist the coverage of such artillery?

It took less than five minutes.

The entire formation finally couldn't hold on.

Seeing the war rapidly advancing backwards, Lu Zhixian couldn't help but look surprised and shouted loudly: "Pass my order, advance quickly along both sides of the mountain road, we must compress their positions and annihilate these Japanese in one fell swoop!"

"Yes, Captain!"

Everyone immediately obeyed the order.

At this time, the entire Japanese brigade was suppressed on this road that was more than three miles long, and with the crazy output of the anti-war battalion, the range of the Japanese front line was constantly compressed.

Two point nine miles.

Two point eight miles.

...

One point nine miles.

Just a moment later.

All the remaining Japanese were suppressed within this one point and a half mile range. Of course, during this period, they also launched fierce attacks again and again.

But all the attacks were pushed back.

This is the powerful advantage of outstanding firepower!

"Report to His Excellency the Major!"

At this time, Staff Officer Kawada shouted anxiously: "The several rounds of attacks launched by our side have failed, and the current losses are heavy. A rough estimate of the current losses is-"

"How many?"

"About 800 imperial soldiers!"

"Baga! "

Miyamoto Masao was furious.

In less than 20 minutes.

More than two-thirds of the troops were sacrificed here!

What a huge casualty!

What a huge shame!

Of course, he barely kept the last bit of reason at this time, and shouted in a deep voice: "Is the passage not opened yet?"

"No."

Kawada shook his head and said with difficulty: "The exit is also stationed with enemy soldiers, and their combat effectiveness is stronger than the surrounding ones. A suicide squad has just been formed to launch an attack, but unfortunately it was pushed back."

"Damn it!"

Miyamoto's face became extremely ugly, and he said angrily: "Where on earth is this unit from? The combat effectiveness is not like that of the Chinese army at all!"

"It seems to be the Eighth Route Army?"

"Eighth Route Army?!"

Miyamoto seemed to be greatly insulted when he heard this, and said angrily: "It can't be the Eighth Route Army! They don't have such firepower at all! "

Kawata immediately explained: "Major! I have just contacted Fujita's squadron. They are now on the road seven miles away from us, but they were also ambushed by a battalion of the Eighth Route Army. Fortunately, the firepower over there is not too strong. Fujita is trying to come to support them. "

"Yoshi!"

Miyamoto's face lit up when he heard this, and said: "If Fujita's squadron can attack from both sides, then we can at least turn the defeat into-"

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

However, before he finished speaking.

Several explosions were heard in the surrounding area, and several soldiers who were closer were immediately blown away.

"Kill!"

"Kill! "

"..."

Suddenly, a charge was heard in the distance.

The enemies who were ambushing on both sides of the hillside no longer had any intention of hiding. With the crazy support of powerful artillery fire, they rushed towards us like wild beasts.

The momentum was unprecedentedly terrifying!

Kawada trembled all over, and said in horror: "Major! The enemy, the enemy has launched a charge! This, this time we are probably finished!"
