The Japanese artillery position.
More than a dozen mortars and howitzers were aimed at the Sichuan army's Damiao position.
"Squadron Leader Hasegawa, Company Leader Houtian has given the order to bombard the Sichuan camp.”
A messenger came to give Houtian's order.
"Yes, sir!"
"Immediately load the shells and bombard the Sichuan camp.”
"Hurry up."
Hasegawa ordered.
"Reporting to Company Leader."
"The preparations are complete."
An artillery soldier reported.
"Start firing. Let these damned Sichuan troops be annihilated by the Empire's cannons.”Hasegawa ordered the bombardment.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
……
More than ten shells landed on the battlefield.
A few Sichuan soldiers who did not react in time were killed on the spot.
Dust flew everywhere.
"The Japanese are firing. Hurry up and enter the hiding hole.”
"Hurry!"
……
Chen Yu quickly ordered.
This was already a common trick of the Japanese.
If they couldn't occupy the position, then they would use artillery shells to bombard it.
Then, he continued to attack.
Fortunately, the Sichuan soldiers who stayed behind had seen the Japanese bombard their positions many times.
They didn't start to run away randomly. They pushed open the sacks beside the trenches one by one and went into the hiding hole they dug last night.
Three minutes later.
Saburo looked through the binoculars at the Damiao Village camp.
He didn't see any Sichuan soldiers through the binoculars.
"Order the artillery fire to extend. The warriors of the Empire will begin their attack.”
"You must take down the temple for me.”
"I'm going to bury these damned Sichuan soldiers alive.”
Saburo ordered.
Just now, he was scolded by the regimental commander on the phone.
He asked him why the Houtian Brigade had stopped near Damiao Village.
Saburo tried his best to explain the bravery of the Sichuan army.
However, he received a warning from the regimental commander," Don't find excuses for your defeat.”
Saburo didn't dare to say much about this. He only promised that he would take down the temple's position as soon as possible and arrive at the designated battle location.
"Yes, sir! Captain."
The messenger went down to convey the order.
A moment later, the Japanese began to fire.
A group of Japanese soldiers began to charge toward the camp again.
"Company commander, the Japanese are here."
Outside the cave, Wu Gui shouted.
"Immediately get our brothers ready for battle.”
Chen Yu pushed away the sandbag in front of her and came out of the hiding hole.
At the front line, the soldiers of the Sichuan Army were already waiting.
Chen Yu was also holding a crooked machine gun in his hand.
This was what he had exchanged for in the cave.
"Brothers, old rules."
"When the Japanese get close, use the grenade first and then hit them hard.”
"There's no need to save bullets. We need to kill as many Japanese as possible.”Chen Yu ordered.
"Yes, sir! Company Commander!"
The Sichuan soldiers around him replied.
The bullets were loaded and the grenades were ready.
The Japanese slowly approached the camp.
"Fire!"
Under Chen Yu's order, the grenade flew out of the position, followed by the sound of explosions.
"Fight!"
Chen Yu held the crooked machine gun and fired crazily.
The other eight machine guns at the front line opened fire at the same time.
The nine machine guns formed a powerful net of fire.
As long as the Japanese got close to the net of fire, they would be shot into a sieve.
After leaving dozens of corpses behind, the Japanese slowly retreated.
"Baka, why is the firepower of the Sichuan army getting more and more intense?”
Houtian asked with an ugly expression.
"Captain, could it be that reinforcements from the Sichuan army have arrived?”
A Company Leader beside Houtian guessed.
"Reinforcements?"
"Now, the entire Songlu is under the control of our empire.”
"Where did the reinforcements come from?" Houtian asked.
"This subordinate does not know." The Company Leader who had just replied said.
"Keep a close watch on the situation of the Sichuan army. We will continue to attack tomorrow.”
Saburo watched as the sky slowly darkened. He was very unwilling to give up and gave the order to retreat.
"Yes, sir! Captain."
The messenger went down to convey the order.
"Captain, it seems like the Japanese won't attack.”Wu Gui pointed at the retreating Japanese and said.
"It's getting dark. Although the Japanese are unwilling, they won't attack overnight.”
"Looks like there won't be a moon tonight.”
"This is also a good thing."
"Let the brothers rest."
"Everyone is good. You played beautifully just now.”Chen Yu said.
"Thank you for your praise, Captain. These weapons are still the best.”
"In the past, if our Sichuan army had only these weapons, why would we be the only ones left?”Wu Gui said somewhat sadly.
"Don't worry, our weapons will get better and better in the future.”
"And the days of our Sichuan Army will get better and better.”
"As long as there is hope, we will not give up.”
Chen Yu patted Wu Gui's shoulder.
"Captain, I also believe that day will come sooner or later.”
"Our Sichuan Army is suffering too much." Wu Gui replied.
"I know."
"The people of Sichuan Province also know."
"The entire Huaxia people will know about it in the future.”
Chen Yu promised.
Wu Gui nodded.
