Chapter 990 The Darkness Before Dawn

"Suoga, the general situation is set!"

Seeing that the 22nd Army on the other side was beaten helplessly this time, Yoji Ichikawa was equally happy from ear to ear.

Ichikawa Yuji said very happily: "After this wave of offensive troops have all crossed the river, the effective force on the other side of the river will reach more than 1 people. It is absolutely possible to tear through the 22nd Army's defense line from the front and stand firmly on the west bank." Stand still."

At this time, a staff officer of the Devils took over and said: "The 15th Army has also made great progress under the coordinated operations of the Imperial Navy, and the Bilu Island stationed by the Huben Army is about to be breached!

After taking over Bilu Island, the imperial navy and army can further besiege the cities of Mawlamyine and Motama. If the battle goes well, it may be possible to completely break through the Salween River defense line before dark. "

"Yo Xi! The more critical the moment is, the more we must be calm and calm. We must know that our enemy is not only the 22nd Army, but also the powerful opponent who has caused the empire to suffer a lot!

This cunning Chinese commander always has some unexpected means and skills. Before the final victory, we must all remain on high alert!

Hashimoto-kun, immediately send power to the frontline troops, telling them to fight steadily and beware of the Chinese army's tricks! "

Hearing the extremely optimistic tone of the officers around him, Masao Kawabe felt suddenly alert at this moment.

The so-called being bitten by a snake for three years is afraid of well ropes, not to mention that Hebian Zhengsan was planted in Yang Fan's hands not once or twice.

"Hayi! Your Excellency the Commander is wise!"

A group of devil officers hurriedly nodded their heads, showing a very educated look, but they were not very worried in their hearts.

Because in the eyes of everyone, everything on the other side of the river can be seen in full view, and the huge power gap between the enemy and us is in front of us. Even if the Huaxia army has some small tricks, it will not have any impact on the overall situation.

The former enemy headquarters of the 5th Army.

"Junzuo, the devils are probably going to launch a general attack on the defense line of the 22nd Army's Hpaan River section this time, and there may be a big melee soon!"

After putting down the binoculars, Dai Anlan turned to look at Du Yuming who was observing the battlefield with the binoculars, and said in a worried tone: "This time is completely different from the last time, the devils have a strong army, so there is no need to worry about lack of stamina!

Once the devils and the 22nd Army are allowed to start a melee, the devils on the other side can fight across the river without any pressure, so our army will passively fight the Japanese army! "

Du Yuming naturally saw the Japanese army's combat intentions, and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry. Although the 22nd Army has suffered heavy casualties, its main force is still there and its morale is still strong. With the 1-odd Japanese troops, there is no way to defeat them." Defeat the 22nd Army!"

After a pause, Du Yuming continued: "If the devils continue to increase their troops on the West Bank after a large-scale scuffle with the 22nd Army, then it will not be too late for us to send troops to support them!"

Liao Yaoxiang nodded and agreed: "The army's plan is very clever. The devils crossed the Salween River. On the surface, they are aggressive, but in fact they sacrifice their strengths and choose their weaknesses. Even though the devils have high quality individual soldiers, they are engaged in melee without a large number of heavy equipment to cooperate with each other. , they don't want to take too much advantage."

Since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, due to the backwardness of weapons and equipment, facing the devils' aircraft, tanks and cannons, the Chinese army has been extremely passive and at a disadvantage.

Although it was still a disadvantage to fight the devils with bayonets in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, at least you can die under the bombardment of the devils' planes and cannons without being aggrieved, because at least you can die vigorously, and at least cause substantial casualties to the devils!

Over time, the Huaxia army gradually summed up the knack of bayonet fighting with the Japanese devils, and their ability to fight hand-to-hand was greatly improved.

At the same time, the weapons and equipment of the Huaxia army have not been significantly improved, so when the Huaxia army fights with the devils, whenever they have the opportunity, they would rather rush up to fight the devils hand-to-hand, rather than passively suffer bombs and die in a grievance.

"That's right, only by setting a long line can you catch big fish!"

Du Yuming grinned and said, "I think the 22nd Army is also thinking about this, otherwise, with the current combat effectiveness of the 22nd Army, they wouldn't have given the Japanese devils a chance to build a beachhead on the west bank!

However, as brothers in the same trench, we should still ask for assistance! "

As Du Yuming analyzed, the 22nd Army is indeed fishing for big fish with a long line, and it is about time to close the net.

Since there was no threat of ground anti-aircraft artillery fire and no warning from the radar station, the Devils combat aircraft group carried out unscrupulous and indiscriminate bombardment of the 22nd Army's Hpa'an River section of defense and several anti-slope artillery positions.

The entire bombing process lasted for a full 12 minutes. The Devils Air Force dropped more than ten tons of bombs and fired tens of thousands of bullets.

Several mountains were once again shrouded in billowing smoke and raging fire, and the defense line of the Hpa-an River section was billowing in thick smoke and covering the sky. At first glance, it seemed that the visibility had become extremely low at dusk.

During the entire process, the defenders of the 22nd Army's Hpa-an River section of the defense line were completely on the defensive. Except for a few necessary guards and observation troops, the rest of the officers and soldiers all got into the nearby anti-gun holes to avoid the crazy bombing of the devils.

Even though a large number of high-standard fortifications such as trenches, bunkers, and anti-blasting holes were built along the defense line along the river, under the continuous and frantic bombardment of the heavy artillery of the Devils, the fortifications, including the bunkers and anti-blasting holes, suffered structural seriousness. Attrition, the defense power is greatly reduced.

As for the trenches with civil structures, they were severely damaged, and many areas collapsed on a large scale.

The bombing of just over ten minutes seemed like a century to the officers and soldiers of the 22nd Army who avoided the bombing.

The earth-shattering explosion sound waves caused severe pain in the eardrums, temporary deafness, and even bleeding. The powerful shock waves and overpressure shock waves made people shift their internal organs, making them extremely uncomfortable.

There are still many soldiers who died heroically under this carpet bombing and gave their precious lives for the country and the nation!

"You bastards! You must pay in blood today!"

The front has turned into a dense piece of darkness, only the continuous sound of violent explosions can be heard, and the flashes of explosions can be vaguely seen in the thick smoke and dust, and everything else is covered by thick smoke and dust.

Li Jiayu's eyes were red, and his heart was extremely frantic. Although the entire defense line of the Paan River section was completely covered by gunpowder smoke and dust, he could not see the specific casualties at all.

But from the movement in front of him, Li Jiayu knew that the 122nd and 123rd divisions must have suffered heavy casualties, and the round of bombing before the devil's general attack exceeded expectations and imagination.

Chapter 991 The show started?

After struggling for about ten minutes, the Devils fighter group with no bombs and bullets finally left. The entire battlefield fell silent instantly, leaving only a gray world covered by billowing smoke and dust.

Li Jiayu yelled at the orderly beside him with red eyes and throat:

"Pass my order, the 122nd and 123rd divisions leave a cover to retreat, and the rest retreat to the second line of defense."

"The rocket artillery unit is ready to fight. When the devil's fourth wave of offensive troops arrives on the west bank, they will immediately start shelling and hit me hard!"

"Yes!"

The orderly responded with a sob, then picked up the walkie-talkie and started calling.

"Quick, plant the explosives and the rest"

"Yoxi! Damn Huaxia Army, it must be almost the same now!"

Nakajima Rin, captain of the 8th Regiment of the 17th Division, took a telescope and looked forward to carefully observe the Huaxia position that was still shrouded in thick smoke and dust.

The Huaxia camp 300 meters away was dead silent, no sound could be heard, and no figures could be seen. It seemed that the Huaxia camp in front had become a dead place without life.

At this time, a ghost captain answered with a smirk: "With such a high-intensity and high-intensity bombing, even Chinese soldiers who are all steel and iron will be blown to pieces!"

"Yo Xi, the Imperial Japanese Air Force is very powerful! The Chinese army is trying to block the car with its arms, and it is dead!"

Rin Nakajima nodded happily, and then said to Ikeuchi Yuu, the captain of the ghost team next to him: "Ikeuchi-kun, you immediately lead the imperial warriors of the brigade to find out the enemy's situation, and you must be careful!"

Although he was very confident in the effect of the carpet bombing just now, and thought that the Huaxia defenders should be almost dead, but out of caution, Rin Nakajima decided to send a small group of troops to explore the road first.

"Hayi! Your Excellency, please rest assured!"

After Chi Neiyou paused for a moment, he immediately stood up and organized six or seven hundred devil soldiers to form a skirmish line. Before the thick smoke cleared, he quickly moved towards the smoke-shrouded Huaxia position in front.

Just a few minutes later, the ghost soldiers touched the vicinity of the Huaxia frontier position all the way. At this time, the smoke and dust had dissipated a lot, and Chi Neiyou and other devils could already see the Huaxia formation 40 meters ago more clearly!

"Yo Xi! The Chinese army is dead!"

I saw that most of the Huaxia trenches were bombed and collapsed. There were only sporadic figures and a few gun mounts on the trenches, and the dense defensive formation before the bombing was completely gone.

A arrogant grin appeared on the corner of Chi Neiyou's mouth. He also said that the Huaxia defenders were dead, and immediately drew out his command knife and shouted loudly: "The warriors of the empire charge! Taoci change!"

"Come on!"

"The Great Japanese Empire is on board!"

Hundreds of ghost soldiers also discovered the situation, and they all thought that the Huaxia defenders were completely killed and wounded. Suddenly, everyone seemed to have been beaten with chicken blood, and all of a sudden their blood surged and they ran wildly, trying to be the first to attack Huaxia. The Imperial Warriors of the Battlefield.

"Brothers, beat me hard! Kill!"

"kill!"

Bang bang bang!

Da da da!

As soon as the devils started to run wildly, the left behind troops responsible for covering the retreat and luring the enemy deep into the enemy began to do all kinds of things and crazily exported to the devils' troops.

A string of high-speed rotating metal bullets shot at the devil soldier like a torrential rain, and after a while, bloody flowers were shot on the devil soldier's body. Dozens of devil soldiers were beaten into sieves and lay dead on the ground in an instant.

"Baga! The Huaxia Army is dead!"

"shooting!"

"Tao time to change!"

The devils were not at all surprised by the sudden blocking. Although many died at once, the devil soldiers were not afraid, but they didn't make stupid onboard charges, but fell to the ground one after another and began to organize a counterattack!

Guizibing has already been woken up by the Huaxia Expeditionary Army with a powerful automatic firepower network. He knows that this thing kills people without family recognition. It is completely a death harvester. A burst of chugs.

"Yoxi! The Huaxia army in front is already at the end of its strength. Hurry up and order the mortar troops to suppress firepower. After the shelling is over, immediately organize a charge and take the Huaxia position as quickly as possible!"

Hearing the sudden fierce gunshots in front of him, Rin Nakajima was not surprised but happy, because he clearly heard that the firepower on the Huaxia position had weakened by half, and it seemed that only some remnants of defeated soldiers were still stubbornly resisting.

"Brothers, retreat quickly! Our mission is completed!"

"quick!"

After overthrowing a wave of devil soldiers, the remaining troops did not love to fight. Knowing that most of the devil troops were about to bombard again, they quickly retreated in an orderly manner from the traffic trench at the rear according to the planned retreat plan!

"Hay!"

The devil mortar unit, which had been prepared for a long time, began to load ammunition and bombard the Huaxia position after receiving the order.

Boom boom boom, a series of explosions exploded in an instant, once again blasting the Huaxia position into billowing smoke and dust!

"Taoji Kaigai! Assault!"

"Come on!"

"The Great Japanese Empire is on board!"

"His Majesty the Emperor onboard!"

When the shelling was over, the captain of the Devils Battalion, Chi Neiyou, waved his command knife again and ordered the troops to charge.

At this time, not only the more than 600 devils who survived under his command started to run wildly, but even the thousands of devils around him also started to charge wildly!

But this time the charge was extremely smooth, within a short distance of tens of meters, or about ten seconds, the devil soldiers quickly rushed into the empty Huaxia position.

Well, it is indeed empty. Not only is there no living person in the several kilometers long trench, there is not even a single corpse. The entire battlefield is as clean as a dog licks it.

"Yosh! We won!"

"We finally broke through the Huaxia Army's position!"

"The Great Japanese Empire is on board!"

However, the ghost soldiers who were in high spirits at this time did not find anything unusual. They were all immersed in the joy of victory and raised their guns to celebrate. Many devil soldiers jumped into the trenches to search.

"Very good, the rocket artillery unit will fire immediately and kill these bastards!"

The 122nd and 123rd divisions all retreated to the second line of defense one kilometer away, and when the fourth wave of Japanese troops began to land one after another, Li Jiayu shouted into the walkie-talkie in an excited and hoarse voice.

"Yes! Received! Please don't worry, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Li, I will definitely make the little devil cry!"

On the other end of the phone, Sun Anshan, commander of the Rocket Artillery Force, immediately responded with a smile.

After hanging up the phone, Sun Anshan smiled at Yang Fan who was beside him and asked, "Boss, Deputy Commander Li finally gave the order, shall we start the performance now?"

Yang Fan smiled and nodded and said: "Well, I am also looking forward to the effect of the first battle of your rocket launcher unit, hit me hard until all the shells are fired!"

Yang Fan also regretted missing the epic battle scene last time, so he simply took Stilwell, Li Zongren, Sun Zhen and other senior generals on a desertion this time, and came to the front line to watch the battle.

Chapter 992

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Excitedly, Sun Anshan saluted Yang Fan, and then ran away in a hurry.

"All the rocket launchers have! Remove the camouflage immediately!"

"There is an order from the chief, to shoot all the shells as quickly as possible!"

"This time is the debut of our rocket artillery group, you must give me a good shot!"

"Quick! Adjust the shooting elements immediately!"

"A test shot! Get ready! Fire!"

At present, the Huben Army rocket launcher unit is equipped with a total of 75 122mm self-propelled rocket launchers, which are hidden in several dense grasslands 17 kilometers from the west bank of the Salween River, forming five temporary rocket launcher positions.

After receiving the combat order, the artillerymen uncovered the protective camouflage on the self-propelled artillery as quickly as possible, and then the artillerymen quickly adjusted the shooting elements according to the parameters, and started a test shot.

Whoosh, whoosh, soon five 122mm rockets soared into the sky, roaring and bombarding the devil soldiers more than ten kilometers away.

Since the initial velocity of the rocket launcher is relatively slow, less than 100 m/s, far less than the speed of sound of 340 m/s, the rocket launcher has not yet reached the devil soldier's head, but the sound of the rumbling cannon reaches the devil's ear first.

"Nani? What's that sound?"

"It's thunder in the sky, is it going to rain?"
