    And on the flanks of their position, the cavalry troops were already eager to try.  Just waiting for the armored troops to rush into the Japanese position, they went in to clean up the Japanese soldiers on the position.

    Once the dense firepower network composed of machine guns is lost, it will be difficult for the infantry to stop the cavalry from advancing by relying on the single-shot 38-gun in their hands.

    Leading the charge of the tank regiment was Shen Fei, the commander of the second tank regiment.  His troops spread across the entire battlefield, like a pack of wolves, rapidly advancing towards the Japanese positions under the cover of heavy machine gun fire from the rear.

    The rows of heavy machine guns at the rear were performing "transcendence shooting" at this time, pouring rounds of bullets onto the Japanese position on the top of the slope.  Such shooting was not to truly effectively kill the Japanese troops, but to form an absolute firepower advantage against the Japanese troops on the ground, suppressing the Japanese troops in the trenches and unable to raise their heads.

    I have to say, this works very well.  Many soldiers of the Japanese army could only shoot at the charging tank troops below through some shooting holes built on the position.

    As for those who rashly exposed their heads, many were directly shot by heavy machine gun bullets.  Some people even had half their heads blown out, and their brains and other biological tissues were scattered on the ground.

    "Salvo!" Shen Fei shouted from inside the tank and issued the bombardment order to each tank.

    With an order, these tanks stopped and fired a dense volley at the Japanese position.

    At the same time, the heavy machine gun on the tank also began to roar at this time.

    These firepower covered the heads of the Japanese troops in an instant.  The sandbags they piled up in front of the trench were blasted out with many holes.

    Some Japanese soldiers hiding behind sandbags were directly blown into pieces by shells fired from tank guns.

    And the bullets from the heavy machine guns fired on these sandbags stirred up a cloud of smoke.

    "Shoot!!" the Japanese commander shouted.

    But despite shouting like this, the heavy machine guns on their position only fired intermittently.  Even some infantrymen were unable to continue shooting.

    "Out of bullets, captain!!" a heavy machine gunner shouted.

    Not only the heavy machine gun bullets, but also some Japanese infantrymen shouted: "We have no bullets anymore, what should we do?"

    The infantrymen were asking their commander.  But their commander didn't know where to get the bullets.  They originally had a lot of ammunition, but the main position suffered too much pressure from the attack, which took away a lot of their ammunition.

    This resulted in them having very few bullets left after dealing with several waves of attacks by the Mongolian Soviet Army.  As for the rifles and bullets picked up from the Soviets, it didn't take long for them to be used up.

    The commanders of the Japanese army would never have thought that the dilemma that often happened to the Chinese army would one day happen to them.

    "If you have no bullets, put on your bayonet. When they rush up, fight with them on the bayonet. Those who have grenades throw grenades, and those who don't have grenades, go and look through the corpses to see if there are bullets on them." The Japanese commander yelled  With.

    After hearing this, the soldiers hurriedly began to carry out the order.

    But more and more soldiers are beginning to fall into a situation where they have no bullets to fight.  But the charging tank regiment was getting closer and closer to them. The Japanese soldiers could even clearly see the mud on the tank's gun barrel in the afterglow of the setting sun.

    "They are approaching the trench we dug." The Japanese soldiers shouted.

    The Japanese commander immediately shouted: "Concentrate your firepower and block the enemy's infantry near the ravine. It is difficult for their tanks to get over."

    Shen Fei led the tank regiment, and at this time, relying on its strong firepower advantage, it approached the trench dug by the Japanese army.

    "The infantry will immediately carry down the logs and build a bridge!! Hurry!!"

    After the order was issued, the infantrymen who were huddled behind the tanks and armored vehicles jumped on top of the tanks and removed the logs tied to them.

    Then, under the cover of heavy machine gun and tank gun fire, these infantrymen began to approach the ravine carrying logs.

    The remaining machine gun firepower, rifle firepower, and mortars of the Japanese army began to roar towards them.

    Some soldiers carrying logs were knocked directly to the ground by bullets from heavy machine guns before they could run a few steps away.

    The soldiers at the back,When the soldiers in front fall down, they will immediately rush over, take over the positions of those fallen soldiers, and continue to charge forward.

    In front of them were bullets fired by the Japanese army, and also the dawn of victory.

    "Charge!!! Charge!!!" The company commanders and platoon leaders took the lead in charging forward. Some commanders also fell on the way to the charge, but the soldiers under their command were still charging forward unswervingly.

    The Japanese army¡¯s firepower density, due to the shortage of ammunition and the suppression of heavy machine guns and other firepower, was no longer able to produce sufficient suppression capabilities against the charging tank regiment infantry.

    After suffering a certain amount of casualties, the infantrymen of the tank regiment rushed to the front of the trench carrying logs.

    The soldiers directly placed these logs on the trench and then tied them with iron wire.  Others use steel bars as steel nails to firmly fix the logs to the ground.

    The first wooden bridge was put up in less than five minutes.  The other troops were also building wooden bridges one after another at this time.

    Although these wooden bridges are very simple, they are enough to allow the passage of tanks and armored vehicles behind them.  After crossing this ravine, the Japanese army's position was already in front of them.

    Tanks and armored vehicles also began to advance here, intending to pass through the wooden bridge and then charge against the Japanese position.

    Xia Yang¡¯s troops¡¯ attack on the Japanese Itagaki Division¡¯s flank positions was quickly reported to Itagaki Seishiro.

    Itagaki Seishiro did not dare to neglect, so he mobilized troops to support the flank positions.

    But at this time, the Soviets launched a large-scale attack on the front of their position.

    Xia Yang had discussed this with General Zhukov in advance. After their attack on the flank positions was launched, the Soviet armored cluster could once again attack the Itagaki Division's frontal position.  In this way, they had no way to support the flank positions, and Xia Yang's troops could break through the Japanese positions more smoothly.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
