At the camp outside the village, Sun Desheng quickly commanded the soldiers to enter the camp.
These trenches and fortifications were all dug in advance.
The soldiers were also familiar with it, so they quickly prepared for battle.
Sun Desheng also placed the 20 anti-aircraft machine guns that Chen Liang had left behind on the battlefield.
Almost as soon as they were ready, the Japanese and puppet troops began to attack.
Ichiro Hirata's attack did not have any tricks. The cunning him first sent out nearly 200 puppet troops as cannon fodder.
They launched the first wave of probing attacks on the defense line where Sun Desheng and the others were.
They were trying to use the puppet troops to lure Sun Desheng and the others to open fire, thereby exposing the location of important firing points such as light and heavy machine guns.
In this way, the Japanese army could use heavy firepower such as mortars and Type 92 infantry cannons to focus on clearing them.
As long as they managed to take out the independent regiment's heavy machine guns and other heavy firepower points, they would be able to rely on their skillful tactical coordination and powerful firepower support.
They could easily break through the independent regiment's defense line outside the village and attack the village in one fell swoop.
This tactic had been used by the Japanese since the 918th of September all the way to the Pacific battlefield.
Especially on the battlefields of China, it was almost always successful.
Sun Desheng was a veteran that Li Yunlong had brought over from the new regiment. He had a wealth of combat experience.
This was also the main reason why Chen Liang asked him to stay behind to assist Zhao Gang.
Seeing that the Japanese had sent puppet troops to be cannon fodder, Sun Desheng did not panic. He snorted coldly and ordered in a deep voice,""Comrades, don't be nervous. These idiots are here to attract our firepower.
Everyone, listen to my command and fire. Light machine guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, do not fire! To avoid exposing the target.
Bring them closer and use submachine guns, rifles, and grenades to deal with these traitors!”
"Yes, sir!" Under the lead of the veterans, the new recruits on the battlefield also responded.
Before long, nearly 200 puppet troops had advanced to less than 100 meters away from Sun Desheng and the others.
This was already within the effective range of Sun Desheng and the soldiers.
Sun Desheng saw that the puppet army's formation was in disarray as they came over in a mess.
He was even more disdainful. He reached out and took a Thomas submachine gun from the side, opened the safety, and pulled the bolt.
Then, he began to aim with his gun. When the group of puppet soldiers advanced another 30 meters, they were less than 50 meters away from them.
" Fire!" Sun Desheng decisively ordered to fire." Brothers, hit them hard!”
Then, he took the lead and pulled the trigger.
Da da!
Under his lead, more than two hundred soldiers opened fire one after another.
With dozens of Thomas submachine guns and Garland semi-automatic rifles as the main force, they formed a very dense firepower.
A dense barrage of bullets flew towards the puppet soldiers.
In an instant, dozens of puppet soldiers at the front were shot and fell to the ground, screaming.
Hirata Ichiro, who was watching the battle through binoculars, was shocked. He frowned and said,"Baka, these Tubas don't seem to be using light and heavy machine guns. Why is their firepower so fierce?”
Shozo Kobayashi, who was beside him, was also observing through binoculars.
"Sir, they seem to be equipped with a large number of automatic firearms."”
"Where did this bunch of b * stards get so many automatic firearms?”Ichiro Hirata was confused.
No one could give him an answer.
The puppet troops that had been attacked fiercely could no longer hold on.
Under the fierce and concentrated firepower of the Independent Regiment, they left nearly a hundred corpses behind and retreated in panic.
Originally, he was responsible for the probing attack mission. The puppet leader saw the firepower of the Eighth Route Army position was so fierce.
They thought that they had completed their mission, so they took the lead and ran back.
Seeing this scene, Ichiro Hirata's mouth twisted in anger.
When the commander of the puppet army who was in charge of leading the attack ran up to him and wanted to report the situation.
Furious, Ichiro Hirata kicked him to the ground. He gritted his teeth and cursed,"Baka, good-for-nothing, get to work!"
The puppet company commander was scared out of his wits and hurriedly kowtowed to beg for mercy.
Ichiro snorted coldly and turned around. His face was ashen as he shouted,""Order the artillery squadron to immediately fire at the Tu Ba Road's position and destroy their resistance!”
Shozo Kobayashi quickly lowered his head and left.
When Sun Desheng saw the puppet soldiers fleeing back in a sorry state, he quickly ordered them to stop shooting.
Then, he shouted,"Everyone, quickly spread out and find cover on the spot. Don't move. The Japanese will definitely fire next!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of artillery shells flying could be heard.
Immediately after, grenades whizzed over and smashed down fiercely.
Because Sun Desheng was already prepared and Chen Liang had commanded the trenches to be built, the top was narrow and the bottom was wide, which was very beneficial for air defense.
Therefore, the Japanese's bombardment did not cause much damage to Sun Desheng and the others.
The bombardment did not last long before Ichiro Hirata called for a halt.
Immediately after, at least 500 Japanese soldiers, under the cooperation of more than 300 puppet troops, formed a long line of disbanded soldiers.
They once again launched an attack on the defense line guarded by Sun Desheng and the others.
This time, Sun Desheng did not hold back.
He immediately ordered the machine guns and anti-aircraft guns on the position to fire.
Twenty powerful anti-aircraft machine guns fired.
The Japanese army that had swarmed over immediately suffered heavy losses.
In front of the powerful anti-aircraft machine gun bullets, many of the Japanese and puppet soldiers who were shot were either cut in half or their heads were directly blown apart.
He died a horrible death!
This was also a fatal blow to the morale of the Japanese puppet army.
Ichiro Hirata, Shaosa Kobayashi, and the others who were supervising the battle from the rear were so shocked that their jaws almost fell to the ground when they saw this scene.
This was especially true for Ichiro Hirata. He almost jumped up from the ground and shouted in shock,""What kind of weapon is this? How could that damned Tubo possess such powerful firepower?”
The following plot would be even more exciting! And it would continue to feel good! I promise!
