Sword of Light: I Can Summon the Fourth Disaster

While the artillery was starting to counterattack the Japanese, the three regiment commanders went through the communication trench and went to the front line to see if there were any omissions in the defensive positions.

Because they knew that this was a completely open battle with the Japanese.

When the Japanese reconnaissance plane was circling over them, Zhou Jue wanted to play the long game and catch the big fish, so he did not let the anti-aircraft artillery battalion shoot down the Japanese plane.

The Japanese knew the current situation on their position very well, but they also knew that the Second Detachment had built a long and solid line of defense relying on Liuhe River.

Zhou Jue also said in the telegram that for this battle, they had no logistical support, no reserve troops, and no retreat.

What they could do was to kill the Japanese on the front battlefield and protect the flanks of the friendly forces who were fighting with the Japanese reinforcements from Wujun.

Qiantang Jun walked to the front line and looked at Banlu who was going crazy, with an unhappy look on his face.

"Li Shaowei, what the hell are you doing?"

When she heard Qiantangjun's voice, Banlujia's eyes turned red.

"Captain, can you please get the guys in the field hospital to hurry up? A Japanese shell has landed in the headquarters of our third company. Four of our platoon members are still alive."

Qian Tang Jun understood what happened as soon as he heard it. In the communication trench, the logistics soldiers were transporting supplies and there was no space to transport the wounded.

"Okay, I'll ask my guards to help you transport the wounded to the field hospital. The battle is about to begin, so stop swearing at me here."

After comforting Banlu and making him leave, Qiantang Jun stuck his head out of the position and wanted to observe the situation at the front line.

Who knew that as soon as his head appeared, a stray bullet hit and blew off Qiantang Jun's hat.

Looking at the big hole in the hat, Qian Tangjun couldn't help but curse. "Damn it, you still have the mind to shoot?"

Qian Tangjun angrily took his guards back to the command center and then started ringing the phone on the table.

"Artillery? I'm the commander of a regiment!"

"What are you doing? How can the devils still have time to catch their breath?"

"I order you! Fire all the shells you have! Remember, all of them!"

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

"Boom!" "Boom!"

The artillerymen, who originally wanted to save shells, did not dare to fire after hearing Qiantang Jun's order.

They set up cannons and bombarded the Japanese positions continuously, while the rocket artillery battalion on the flank also fired a round of salvos at the Japanese infantry formation.

The Japanese position was suddenly engulfed in a sea of ​​fire.

At this moment, on the battlefield, Banlu, who had sent away the wounded, was chatting with the soldiers.

A young soldier asked: "Battalion Commander, we clearly dug the anti-artillery holes, why did the third company commander and his men..." The young soldier was a little depressed, thinking that they, the engineers who were doing the earthwork, did not do a good job.

When Banlujia saw him like this, he knew that he was getting too obsessed with something.

"Haha." He chuckled and said comfortingly, "It's not your fault, engineers. You haven't learned it before, and we didn't expect it either."

"Captain, what didn't you expect?" a soldier asked curiously.

"I didn't expect the Japanese to have a 150mm heavy artillery." Banlu said with a relaxed look on his face, but he still had some doubts in his heart. However, as a frontline commander, he had to give the soldiers a shot of reassurance.

"When we were in Shanxi, we faced the most elite Kwantung Army of the Japanese, and they didn't have such a large-caliber cannon."

Seeing the soldiers' puzzled expressions, Banlujia explained: "Do you know what elite troops are? The Kwantung Army is the elite troops of the devils!"

"The ordinary Japanese divisions have just achieved the mule-horse transformation. What about the Kwantung Army? They are motorized infantry, or even semi-mechanized infantry."

"Not only are they numerous, they also have a large number of tanks, trucks, troop carriers, as well as separate field artillery regiments, horse farms, field hospitals, and repair shops."

"But we have been fighting them for so long, and the largest caliber gun we have is only 120mm. We never thought that the Japanese would have a 150mm gun."

"Captain of the Third Company and his men were unlucky this time. A shell just happened to fall into the anti-artillery hole where they were hiding."

"Although our comrades have left us, we must carry on their will and their spirit and continue to fight until the devils are driven out of our homeland!"

Banlu's words made the soldiers excited, and they all expressed their determination to fight the Japanese to the end.

Coincidentally, at this time, the frequency of the artillery attacks of the direct regiment weakened, and Banlujia knew that it was time to stop.

Wu Qifang, the instructor of the first battalion, came over and said to Banlujia: "Lao Li, the artillery called and said they are going to stop soon."

"I've heard it. Everyone, get into position and be ready to fight at any time!"

After the soldiers entered the position, the artillery in the rear stopped firing, and the soldiers concentrated on observing the situation in front of the position.

Half an hour later, the reorganized Japanese drove the puppet troops who had just arrived in front and crashed into the blocking position of the direct regiment.

Soon, the puppet army in the front was only 200 meters away from the first battalion's position, and the Japanese vanguard squadron was preparing to set up mortars.

But at this moment, a signal flare rose above the position, and at the same time, guns fired throughout the position.

In an instant, the G43 rifles, MG34 machine guns and Suomi submachine guns on the entire first battalion's position opened fire at the same time, causing the vanguard of the puppet army to pause and then fall to the ground in large numbers.

The Japanese colonel Takagi Aizaburo, who was supervising the battle in the rear, saw that the Japanese skirmish line was rushing forward without retreating, so he drew out his command knife and slashed towards the direction of the first battalion.

"Warriors of the Sky Locust! The time has come to serve the Sky Locust! Aboard!"

The Japanese soldiers, who were influenced by Bushido, immediately rushed forward in waves and launched an attack on the position of the first battalion.

Takagi Aozaburo looked at the tense confrontation between the First Battalion and the Japanese skirmish line and smiled grimly.

"Send the tank squadron up!"

At the position of the first battalion, Banlushe had just led his soldiers to repel a wave of Japanese skirmishers when they saw that the Japanese who were supposed to charge forward had slowed down their attack, and a Japanese tank appeared in front of them.

Banluojia narrowed his eyes, knowing that the Japs on the opposite side were really anxious. Whether it was the skirmish line that had attacked continuously before, or the tanks that were pressing forward now, it all showed that the Japs wanted to break through the first battalion's defense line as soon as possible.

But will half-exposing yourself give them a chance? Of course not!

"Bring the anti-aircraft guns here, Wu Dahan. As the commander of the machine gun company, you boasted that there is nothing that your machine gun company cannot tear apart!"

"Now, go after these damned devils and tear them to pieces!"

"Yes!"
