"The Second Regiment isn't doing too well either. The Japanese have also sent two regiments. They're attacking desperately as if they've gone crazy. Fortunately, they don't have to suffer from the heavy artillery bombardment of the Japanese, so the pressure is a little lighter than ours.”the regiment chief of staff explained.
"Yes." After Zhao Menghai responded, he asked,"Is there any new instruction from the command center? When will the reinforcements arrive?"
"No, the command center did not give any instructions for the time being. They just told us to wait patiently.”the regiment chief of staff explained.
Wang Dahai, who had been promoted to platoon leader in the Second Battalion of the First Regiment, heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the retreating Japanese soldiers. He took out a cigarette and started smoking. He asked calmly when he saw his subordinate, Wu Mingyi, walking over.
"How is it? How are the casualties of your first squad?"
Wu Mingyi, who was originally a new recruit, had become the squad leader. He walked over with a tired face and sat beside Wang Dahai. He took a sip of water and said weakly.
" More than half of the casualties. The Japanese were like crazy. They were fearless and fought very hard. Their marksmanship was really good. Many of our recruits were shot in the head. In addition, their grenade throwers were also very good. They could hit anywhere within a hundred meters. Unfortunately, our mortars..." Wu Mingyi was no longer a recruit. He counted like a veteran.
"I know what you're saying. The platoon's mortars are already heating up. We really can't continue fighting.”Wang Dahai added after explaining.
"The vice squad leader was just killed by the Japanese grenade launcher.”
Hearing this, Wu Mingyi's eyes reddened. He thought of the silent class assistant, and tears fell unconsciously.
"F * ck them, this damned Japanese…"
" Live well. You must kill more Japanese. Only then can you avenge the platoon commander..." Wang Dahai shook his head and said. He was able to become a platoon commander not because he was outstanding, but because most of his peers had died.
Therefore, he was used to life and death and knew that sadness was useless. Only by killing the Japanese could he forget the sadness in his heart. Sometimes, living was more painful than dying.
Because the living needed to continue to bear the pain, and the dead would end it all.
"Wu Mingyi, you will lead a team of sharpshooters and focus on the Japanese grenade launchers. Damn it, the Japanese grenade launchers are really annoying.”Wang Dahai gritted his teeth at the mention of the grenade launcher.
Grenade launchers could be said to be a major feature of the Japanese. The main features were the large angle of fire, curved trajectory, and short range. It was definitely a sharp weapon used to kill the enemies in the fortifications.
More importantly, it was convenient to carry. It could move along with individual attacks and effectively support the frontline troops.
A well-trained veteran would definitely be able to hit anywhere within a hundred meters with a 100% accuracy.
"Yes, platoon leader!" Wu Mingyi replied.
On the other side, the commander of the Japanese 79th regiment was staring blankly at the map. This morning, his regiment had launched four attacks, but they were repelled each time.
This made him very angry. Ever since the 78th regiment was wiped out, the entire independent 79th regiment became a disgrace to the Kwantung Army. Their regiment commander was even ordered to commit suicide.
This could be said to be a soldier's greatest humiliation. When Yoshika Ryosuke ordered the general attack to begin, he was the first to stand up and express that he would take the lead and live or die with the regiment. If he did not take the position, he would thank the Emperor.
He had already made up his mind that he would definitely take down the position this time. If he couldn't take it down, he would die for it.
This was because he had heard that the headquarters had decided to cancel the 79th Brigade's name, and his 79th Brigade would be transferred to another exploration team.
With a bleak future ahead of him, he decided to use a great victory to move the headquarters, hoping that they would continue to retain the 79th Brigade's name.
Unfortunately, the firepower of the Chinese army was too strong. His troops could not get within 50 meters of the enemy.
The enemy's dense barrage of heavy and light machine guns and automatic firearms made him despair. Once the imperial soldiers entered the firing range, they would be greeted with a frenzied barrage of bullets.
They could not even raise their heads. They would even fall into a dilemma. In just one morning, they had already claimed more than 500 people.
He was considered a veteran with rich combat experience and had fought with many Chinese armed forces, but he had never seen any army with such powerful firepower. Even their regular army was not so powerful.
"Regiment Commander, the Regiment Commander called to ask about the situation.”At this moment, the military advisor asked in a low voice.
" Answer truthfully. Also, order a suicide squad to be formed. I will personally supervise the battle. Those who dare to retreat will be killed without mercy..." The commander of the Japanese regiment made up his mind and decided to personally supervise the battle.
"Hey!"
