The 105mm howitzers of the Artillery Regiment began to bombard the charging formation of the Japanese army.
In this narrow area, dozens of 105mm cannons fired together, and the power was very strong. The Japanese soldiers behind could not rush over at all, and they were blown into pieces in the explosion.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The intensive bombardment continued to kill the Japanese. The 75mm artillery was relatively weak, but the 105mm artillery was different.
The 170mm artillery did not join the bombardment because it was very close to the Japanese position. If it caused an accidental injury, it would affect the morale of the army. However, more than 60 105mm artillery were enough to participate in the battle.
The Japanese artillery had been crippled. It could be said that the Japanese army did not have the support of artillery. Their charge was destined to be futile, but Kawagishi Bunsaburo had no way out.
He knew very well that if he did not take down this position, he would take off his military uniform and return to his country to become a reserve soldier. If he did, he would be ordered to commit suicide. Therefore, for the sake of his future and even his life, he had to break through this position.
This was the real reason why he ordered his troops to attack without any regard for their lives. After all, every man for himself. As long as he won, who would care about the lives of the soldiers?
They would only remember that they had won this great victory.
The Japanese army's attack was once again repelled. The Japanese army lost a large group in this attack. Although the large group rushed to the bridgehead, they were unable to attack because of the heavy losses. They were killed by the soldiers of the 4th regiment at the bridgehead.
The regimental commander of the 77th Regiment closed his eyes in pain and looked at the few soldiers who had returned. These were all his soldiers. His 77th Regiment was finished and would follow in the footsteps of the 78th Regiment.
" Continue attacking! Don't stop!" Kawagishi Bunsaburo did not feel the slightest ripple in his heart.
This method was the only way to quickly break through the formation. He would not have any reinforcements.
Although the mysterious Chinese troops had powerful weapons and equipment, they were still humans. Fighting a war was not an easy thing to do. As long as he continued to attack, they would soon get tired. This way, when the 39th exploration team arrived, they would be able to easily break through this position.
It could be said that he was using the 40th Brigade as cannon fodder to prepare for the new forces.
At this moment, a puppet military officer with the head of a deer and the brain of a mouse walked in. When Kawagishi Bunsaburo saw this, he couldn't help but reveal a hint of disdain in his eyes, but he hid it very well.
"Lin Sang, why are you looking for me?”He asked indifferently.
The puppet officer bowed his head and said flatteringly,""Taijun, I have a way to quickly break through this formation!”
Kawagishi Bunsaburo coldly snorted and said,"What's wrong? Asking your Imperial Association Army to charge? Don't they want to fight the Chinese?"
The puppet officer was shocked. He didn't want to die, so he quickly said,""It's like this. I heard that Lu Jie cherishes those nobodies very much. Why don't we capture some of them as meat shields for the imperial army? That way, they won't dare to shoot, and this position can be easily taken down.”
Kawaki Bunsaburo's eyes lit up when he heard this. He happily patted the puppet officer's shoulder a few times and said,"Yo, Lin Sang has a good conscience. If we succeed, you will be a hero and will definitely be promoted!”
When the puppet army officer heard Kawagishi Bunsaburo's words, he could not help but say excitedly,"Taijun, leave this matter to me. I guarantee that it will be handled properly!”
They were not good at fighting wars, so capturing a group of ordinary people was too easy for them.
Soon, the puppet troops attacked the surrounding villages. They captured all the civilians they encountered. In just one or two hours, they captured hundreds of people.
Kawagishi Bunsaburo's reinforcements, the 39th Brigade, had also arrived and were setting up camp. He was not in a hurry to attack because he had a new method. This method would be very useful to them, so he felt that the possibility of success was very high.
Soon, it was three o'clock in the afternoon. Beiping was no longer as hot as before, but the soldiers were already drenched in sweat.
Xu Ziqiu saw that the Japanese army did not attack again, so he said,""Get the first team to replace the fourth team and let them rest!”
"Yes, sir!"
Xu Ziqiu was very glad that he had made this decision. Otherwise, it would have led to a tragedy. It was definitely not possible to face the new recruits in close combat. Fortunately, they had changed to a team. They were all veterans exchanged by the system. They had been through hundreds of battles and had encountered all kinds of situations.
At that time, Lu Jie was also glad that he had equipped every soldier with a pistol, which was how he had survived this crisis.
The Japanese army attacked again, but when the soldiers saw that the people in front of the Japanese army were actually civilians in ragged clothes, they were stunned. In this situation, they were at a loss. It was definitely impossible to shoot.
