Chapter 87 The Longest Night 3

At midnight, the battle in the Tiger Ditch position had entered a white-hot battle. The Japanese army's offensive forces suffered heavy casualties and could not be attacked for a long time, so it launched three consecutive meat bomb attacks of more than 100 people. The Chinese defenders on the first line of defense had not experienced such a battle. Suddenly, it could be said that there were heavy casualties, and the whole front suddenly became precarrisome. Ge Weimin, the chief of staff of the new first regiment under his command, had no choice but to transfer the troops of two companies from the third-line position, and concentrated a large number of submachine guns to drive the Japanese army off the position. The blood on the surface of the whole tiger ditch position has turned into snow mud, and there is this kind of black mud caused by gunfire everywhere.

When did the wind and snow stop? However, the attack of the Japanese army was more fierce. There were shaking figures everywhere. Some Japanese soldiers rushed to the third line of defense before they were found dead. In the trenches and traffic trenches of the front-line position, the two officers and soldiers were fighting with different languages. There were people who were fighting together everywhere, picking their eyes and squeggles. Bite the ear, stone, butt, bayonet stab! The screams and killings were ups and downs, accompanied by the sound of intense shooting and the explosion of grenades.

At this moment, Ge Weimin's shoulders were already colorful. There were only two soldiers left in a platoon that fought back with him to protect the chief of staff. Ge Weimin's Browning pistol had long been lost. It was replaced with a Mauser pistol picked up from a platoon leader who died in battle. After killing several soldiers in a row, he looked at the continuous breakthrough of the army. Ge Weimin shouted loudly, gave up the front-line position, and moved to the second-line position from both sides! Don't mess up the second-line defense.

But many Chinese soldiers were entangled with the Japanese army on the defense line, and soon their figures were overwhelmed by the figures of the Japanese army's attack.

Request artillery support! Ge Weimin dialed the phone directly to the gun group headquarters, 100 meters? Fifty meters? After two coordinate positions were adjusted, the commander of the artillery group handed the phone to the regimental commander Zhang Tianpeng!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Zhang Tianpeng's artillery regiment has suppressed the gunfire on the last secret position, but Ge Weimin at the front line still roared too far. Zhang Tianpeng held the phone with a solemn expression in one hand and marked the secret position in the other hand and said in surprise, "Are you going to hit your defense line in the reduction?"

Ge Weimin looked at the Japanese army that broke into the position from all directions. From time to time, he shot out from the fortifications and shouted, "Fire at me. The first defense line has been lost. We have been surrounded by myself!" Hurry up and fire!"

Zhang Tianpeng was stunned. He once had such an experience and fired at his brother? He heard that the second artillery group was ordered to shell the front of the tiger ditch. It was said that there were dozens of death squad players who attacked in front of the battle.

He is likely to become a sinner if he shoots. If he doesn't fire, he will miss the best opportunity to kill and injure a large number of soldiers, and it will lead to the counterattack troops unable to quickly recover their positions and completely lose the front-line position. Zhang Tianpeng took a deep breath. He made such a decision once. That decision made him from the regimental commander to Battalion commander, now he is once again at the crossroads of choice, asking the division? Zhang Tianpeng is not crazy yet. Which officer likes to push the blame to his subordinates?

"Reduce a secret position! The first, second and third shots of the gun group! Shoot ten shots quickly!" Zhang Tianpeng roared ferociously!

Just as the Japanese army swarmed into the position to clean up the Chinese defenders who were still stubbornly resisting, the roaring dense artillery smashed all the attacking troops of the Japanese army.

Songmu Zhiliang, who heard the frontline report of casualties, didn't even know when the receiver slipped. After nearly four hours of fighting, he had just taken the first line of defense of the Chinese defenders and was heavily shelled by some of the enemy. The 54th and 55th infantry regiments of the 27th Brigade, which served as the attack, suffered more than half of the casualties. The second The 57th wing drawn from the 18th Brigade began to take over its main attack, and the 54th and 55th infantry regiments retreated to carry out field reorganization and then fought again!

Fierce artillery fire, dense firepower, resolute resistance, almost crazy killing! According to the feedback from the 27th Infantry Brigade, the distance between the three defense lines of the Chinese defenders is about 100 meters, and the difference between the second defense line and the third defense line and the first defense line is exactly 17 degrees. This angle makes the Japanese offensive troops directly face the fire blockade and attack of the three defense lines.

Stepping on the snow to attack the fiercely fortified Chinese garrison position, the result of this attack is like a massacre, but it can't defeat the enemy with several fierce white-edged battles, which makes it very difficult for Matsugi Zhiliang to accept? The most proud and invincible white soldier of the imperial army will be invalid?

Songmu Zhiliang can't understand failure and why he failed? Wind and snow, military strength and morale all have an absolute advantage, and even the firepower is almost the same. In addition to the invincible samurai spirit of the empire, why did it fail? The eight big characters with heavy casualties in the long battle made the pine wood out of breath.

However, Pinghe Zhenzang, the commander of the 28th Infantry Brigade, who was commanded by the former enemy, had a personal experience. In the previous attack, Pinghe Zhenzang could only hear the rumble of gunfire and see the flash of the explosion. After midnight, the wind and snow stopped, Pinghe Zhenzang could use the flash of the bombardment explosion of both sides to faintly. I saw the row of soldiers who were shot to the ground by machine guns like cutting wheat.

It is a hard task to move forward on the snow in itself, especially wearing heavy coats and carrying weapons. The clumsy soldiers have become the targets of Chinese soldiers. After the fierce exchange of fire between the two sides of the attack, the artillery support of the Field Artillery Wing has hardly stopped. How long can the shells carried by the Division Field Artillery Wing last? Hiraga Zhenzang has never considered it, but now it is obviously not. In the face of the attack organized by the [***] team, which has an absolute advantage in light weapons firepower, I'm afraid that the attack will become impossible if there is no suppression and destruction effect of artillery fire.

Pinghe Zhenzang is almost numb and desperate for the Chinese garrison's position to attack. In a narrow positive slope with such a dense force to carry out a full-line assault, Matsuki Zhiliang must be completely crazy! Due to the death of the brigade commander, the 27th Infantry Brigade fought particularly bravely, risking the hot fire network of the Chinese defenders to attack again and again and again. It was indeed exaggerated to report more than half of the casualties.

However, at least 3,000 people were killed in two infantry regiments, and thousands of wounded could not be transported through the artillery blockade area. The shells of the Chinese defenders seemed to be endless? Time is quietly lost minute by minute. Pinghe Zhenzang knows very well that under the extreme cold, if these wounded can't get warmth and immediate treatment, their names can be directly included in the list of officers and soldiers killed early tomorrow morning.

Pinghe Zhenzang, who failed in the attack, unexpectedly received a phone call from the division commander, Matsuki Zhiliang. Matsuki Zhiliang scolded Pinghe Zhenzang in a very harsh tone. Finally, Pinghe Zhenzang, who could not stand it, had to make a careful statement. It seemed that all the shells of the Chinese defenders were Hit yourself on the head? Hasn't there been a large-scale artillery support since the fierce battle in the direction of Majiagou and the direction of Monk Guanfeng?
