Guo Shaoqiu and other people on the position also felt that the Japanese had launched a new attack today, and there was a feeling that a storm was about to come.

Starting at 7:30 in the morning, the Japanese air force began to bomb the position. Guo Shaoqiu immediately called our air force over. More than 50 planes from both sides fought fiercely in the sky over Luodian. Then the Japanese concentrated a large number of artillery and bombarded the entire Luodian position regardless of losses.

Our artillery is also busy at this moment because we are afraid that the Japanese artillery will not come out. As long as you come out, we will fight you to the end at the risk of our lives.

Everyone can see that our artillery replenishment speed is very fast. Most of them run away after the first round. As for the artillery, they are left where they are. As long as the lives of the artillerymen are saved, we can start again at any time.

It's different for the Japanese. They dare not abandon their artillery and run away. For an industrial country ranked last, a 75mm infantry gun is also precious. They are not much richer than us.

Although the Japanese suffered heavy artillery losses, their artillery foundation is stronger than ours, so they were able to pull over the artillery of the entire Pujiang Expeditionary Force, and the artillery of both sides could still be evenly matched on the battlefield.

"The devils have heavy artillery today too."

Captain Fan tilted his ear and said that the shell that fell just now was also a 155mm howitzer. For the Japanese, this thing is their signature artillery and they will not pull it out unless it is absolutely necessary.

"Every failure is a learning experience. You got beaten up like that last time. If you don't come up with something real, you'll get beaten up again this time."

Guo Shaoqiu didn't say anything. No matter what the Japanese became, they would be the same to us.

"Report to the brigade commander, three battalions of Japanese invaders are charging at us from three sides."

Just when everyone was analyzing the changes in the Japanese today, more than 3,000 Japanese rushed up from three sides. There was no long live charge like that day. Everyone fought step by step. This made Guo Shaoqiu a little puzzled. If you had fought like that that day, you might still be able to break through. Is it possible to win with this step-by-step fight today?

"Everyone enter the battle and tell everyone that the Japanese are going to play today and really take out the best goods in the bottom of the box."

Guo Shaoqiu also noticed that the Japanese's offensive momentum today was different from before. If we don't use our full strength, we might suffer a loss today.

Facts proved that Guo Shaoqiu's prediction was correct. The results of aerial reconnaissance came out immediately. Behind these three Japanese battalions, there were three more battalions that were ready. It was said that the other Japanese were still gathering behind the three prepared battalions. It was obvious that the Japanese were going to launch a round-the-clock attack on us today.

"You've seen the results of Lao Fan's aerial reconnaissance. The Japanese are planning to launch a series of attacks on us. My only concern is transportation. You have to find a way."

Guo Shaoqiu said with some concern, our weapons and equipment are not bad, and the soldiers' training quality is not low, but when the real fighting comes, the consumption of various ammunitions is too great. With only the people under Lao Fan, the first two hours should be fine, but when his soldiers' physical strength declines, problems will arise.

"What do you think I was doing yesterday afternoon? I brought in four or five hundred lightly wounded soldiers from the neighboring 15th Division. Even though they were injured, they could still carry an ammunition box. But I've got to tell them that you guys here provide three meals a day and a dollar a day."

Lao Fan patted his chest and said that when he passed by the position of the 15th Division yesterday, he found that several troops had lightly wounded soldiers gathered there. These people retreated because they had not suffered any damage during the battle. There was no place for them in the hospital in the rear. Their bodies had been bandaged, so there should be no problem in transporting weapons and equipment.

"As long as there's no shortage of bullets during the battle today, I'll give them two a day."

Guo Shaoqiu, a scholar, used to speak politely when he first came to Pujiang. Now that he is hanging out with people like Captain Fan, he starts to swear all the time. However, in the eyes of many soldiers, he is a good commander.

"Su Kang, listen carefully. Your men are not transports. If one of my men falls, one of yours will replace him immediately. Unless someone dies, we cannot lose this position."

Guo Shaoqiu had also observed the military police regiment under Su Kang in the past two days and found that their combat effectiveness was quite good, no less than that of the Central Army. Now they were evenly distributed throughout the positions. If any of his men were injured, they would have to take over.

"Please rest assured, Commander Guo, my men will never bring shame to the people of this province."

When Su Kang finished speaking, Guo Shaoqiu had already left his position. Now Guo Shaoqiu was needed everywhere to work, so naturally he could not stay in one position for too long.

"Listen up, everyone. I've already made a big promise. Brigade Commander Guo said that if we lose this position, my head will be court-martialed. Remember this, guys. If I die, none of you will have a good life. We are on the 72nd Army's position, receiving their pay, and we have our fellow countrymen behind us. If anyone dares to take a step back, don't blame me for not recognizing him with the gun in my hand. Let's be clear up front."

Su Kang took out his pistol and said with a murderous look on his face.

"Don't worry, Commander. We brothers are not the kind of people who take it easy. Now that we're on the battlefield, how can we leave without killing a few devils? We used to have no place to use our weapons, but now that Commander Guo thinks highly of us and has given us so many good weapons, we're just waiting to kill the devils."

A machine gunner loaded his new Czech light machine gun with bullets from two ammunition boxes next to it.

No matter how many Japanese come, I will kill them.

"Don't worry, big brother. I have the hand grenade ready. As long as the enemy gets within 30 meters, I will immediately use the grenade to deal with him."

It is quite rare for two cousins ​​to be in the same army. The older cousin specializes in machine gun operation, while the younger cousin holds grenades. On the one hand, he serves as a machine gun observer for his cousin, and on the other hand, he also uses grenades to make final preparations.

"Fathers and sons fight together in battle, and brothers fight together against tigers. Today, we two brothers will fight against those devils. In the future, when we go to the ancestral hall, everyone will look up to us and kowtow to us first."

Listening to his two brothers' words, Su Kang also smiled. The brothers on other positions were also ready. The Japanese soldiers in the smoke in the distance were about to show their heads...
