my bright sword career

"Speed, you have to speed up your attack, do you understand?"

In the headquarters, Sixth Army Commander Gan Lichu shouted loudly into the phone.

This battle has been going on for more than ten days. Countless soldiers from both China and Japan have fallen around this unknown town. Despite heavy casualties, no one is willing to take a step back.

For the 55th Division, once they retreat, the Chinese army can break through this line of defense, and it only takes a day or two to rendezvous with Tonggu's 200th Division. In this way, all the efforts made by the 55th Division these days It would all be in vain, and the tens of thousands of soldiers killed and injured would be meaningless.

As far as Huaxia is concerned, the 200th Division, as the direct lineage of Chairman Jiang, must never be abandoned. Once the 200th Division is surrounded by the Japanese army, the morale blow to the expeditionary force will be very huge. Maybe this expedition will end in failure. In the end, no one can afford this responsibility.

Both sides have reasons to fight to the death, which means that this battle will be particularly brutal.

…………

"Yoshi, it seems those Chinese people still don't understand why the imperial army's artillery fire is so accurate, right?"

While watching dozens of gunners pushing a Type 91 105mm howitzer to the firing position, Artillery Wing Captain Jun Asano thought proudly.

As an artillery commander, Asano Junichi is undoubtedly very good.

At his strong request, the 55th Division gathered all the wires and telephones in the entire forward position, and then set up the wires to each brigade and squadron. Each squadron had at least one field phone on average.

As a result, the communication between the defenders at the forward position has become very smooth. Unlike in the past, which mostly relied on communication troops to deliver orders, the frontline troops can use the phone to directly command the artillery fire everywhere. The shells fired by the artillery are like eyes. With huge damage and casualties, the key breakthroughs implemented by the expeditionary force almost became empty talk under the accurate artillery bombardment.

When Asano Junichi fantasized that he might soon be praised by the division commander, and even his reputation would spread to the mainland, and he would be received by the Emperor, he did not know that a group of commandos composed of the most elite Chinese soldiers had already jumped in the distance. He was less than ten meters under the fort.

Lin Dayuan, who had been touching the bunkers at close range, finally understood why the artillery positions of the Japanese army claimed that they could not be blown up or destroyed.

Four meters of covering soil is enough to block all shelling, not to mention there is a thick layer of reinforced concrete under the covering soil. Unless the 200 or even 300 mm caliber heavy artillery is approached within four kilometers and directly hit with multiple armor-piercing shells, otherwise it will not be possible at all. There is no way to destroy such a bunker.

Following Lin Dayuan's gesture, more than 100 soldiers silently circled back to the fort and the two bunkers on its left and right sides from both sides.

The 2-meter-high bunker and the shooting holes high above made the Japanese troops above basically undefended against the enemies in front of them.

Leaning on the thick mound, listening to Japanese shouts from time to time in the fort, Lin Dayuan, who had already put on a gas mask, carefully took out two grenades painted with a circle of white from his satchel, holding one in each hand.

The three soldiers behind Lin Dayuan also took out the same grenades.

Almost at the same time, the soldiers hiding on both sides of the nozzle suddenly threw the grenades in their hands from the nozzle into the turret.

"Bang, bang..." There were two muffled sounds in my ears. Before the soldiers and gunners in the fort could react, the whole fort was shrouded in white smoke, smelling the pungent smell in the air. Only then did he react.

"Poison gas!" Hearing the screams in the turret, Lin Dayuan, wearing a gas mask, clenched the Thompson submachine gun in his hand.In fact, what they just threw in was not a gas bomb, but a tear gas bomb.

Tear gas, also known as tear gas, is a non-lethal ammunition.The most frequently occurring components are benzochlorophenone (CN), and o-chlorobenzylidene malononitrile (CS), among which CS is the most widely used component.

The main effect of tear gas is to irritate the mucous membranes of the eyes, nose, mouth, skin, and lungs, causing severe eye pain, and rapid symptoms such as tearing, sneezing, coughing, nausea, vomiting, chest pain, headache, and burning skin. Even cause vision loss.

Although tear gas is claimed to be a non-lethal weapon, it depends on the circumstances under which it is used.

Tear gas will produce a high concentration of harmful gases after exploding. It only takes 2 to 3 seconds for people in the center of the killing range to become intolerable. In a semi-enclosed space, it only takes more than ten seconds at most to cause coma or even death from suffocation. .

Soon, the No. 1 Japanese army staggered out of the fort. The soldier who had been waiting for a long time raised his regular rifle in his hand and shot it. The soldier fell to the ground without saying a word, and then It’s the second No.3…

More than ten minutes later, more than 200 Japanese soldiers and gunners in the fort and the bunkers on both sides, including Colonel Asano Jun, were all dead.

The purpose of tear gas was actually understood by the soldiers of the Liantai Militia through long-term practice. Now these tear gas canisters are also delivered to the soldiers of the expeditionary force along with the instruction manual.

New 22nd Division Headquarters
"Sir, the death squads have sent a signal. They have already pulled out the Japanese heavy artillery!"

"it is good!"

Liao Yaoxiang threw away the cigarette butt in his hand, his dusty face that hadn't been cleaned for several days showed excitement.

"Pass my order, all the artillery fire of the entire division will cover the Japanese army. After 10 minutes, the 521st regiment will immediately launch a general attack. The 522nd regiment will launch a feint attack from the rear right wing. If the Japanese army is unable to resist, the feint attack will immediately turn into a strong attack.

As the general reserve team, the 523rd regiment must break through the Japanese positions before dark today. "

"understand!"

"Your Excellency, Division Commander, our artillery regiment was raided by the China Death Squadron. Asano Junichi and the six heavy cannons he was in were all shattered. Now the newly organized 22nd Division of China on the left has launched a general attack on us, and the 112th Regiment suffered heavy losses. , Colonel Shotaro Terada requested emergency tactical guidance."

"Nani, why is this?"

The division commander, Lieutenant General Torazo Ishimoto, who had not slept for two days in a row, swayed. Fortunately, Chief of Staff Gennosuke Kato and Colonel Yamaji quickly gave him a hand, and he did not fall down.

After trying to control his body and stand up straight, Ishimoto Tozo hurriedly asked: "Kato-kun, what is the specific loss of the 112th regiment?"

Kato Gennosuke's eyes darkened: "Colonel Shotaro Terada reported that after more than half a month of continuous fierce fighting, the 112th Regiment originally had less than 2000 people left, but now it is just over a thousand.

Now facing the attack of thousands of people from China's newly formed 22nd Division, they won't be able to hold on for long!Your Excellency, we'd better send reinforcements as soon as possible! "
