    The moment they got into the trench, a large number of artillery shells fired by the Japanese army began to explode violently above their position.

    The intensive artillery bombardment is something that many Eighth Route Army soldiers here have never seen before.

    Most of them participated in some anti-encirclement and suppression operations, as well as guerrilla combat.  This is the first time for them to have a head-on confrontation with the main force of the division level of the Japanese army.

    Hiding in the trench, Lin Daqiang and Xie Yidou couldn't help but admire these soldiers of the Fourth Army.

    "These people were actually able to defeat the joint encirclement and suppression campaigns of several Japanese divisions in Taibai Mountain and Wutai Mountain several times, and were even able to annihilate two reorganized Japanese divisions.

    Such fighting power is really terrifying.

    The bombardment of Japanese artillery shells lasted for half an hour before it came to an end.

    Before the bombardment was completely over, the Japanese infantry troops had already reached a position less than 300 meters away from the Eighth Route Army position.

    The moment the bombardment ended, they immediately began to roar and charge.

    Behind these Japanese infantry, the Japs¡¯ mortars and heavy machine guns have been deployed, ready to charge forward at any time.

    Thousands of soldiers from the 113th Regiment and the 114th Regiment climbed out of the trenches that were less than half filled with mud thrown away by the shells, and quickly entered the fighting position.

    "Brothers, don't let the brothers in the Fourth Army look down on us. I'm going to give you all the strength to suck you. Fuck you little devils!!" Lin Daqiang was walking in the trench, shouting, his voice was  The whole battlefield echoed.

    "If anyone dares to take a step back, before the little devil's bullet hits your head, the gun in my hand will kill you first!" Xie Yidou also shouted loudly.

    Other commanders at all levels, from battalion commander to squad leader, are also trying their best to encourage the soldiers and strengthen their determination and will to fight.

    At this time, the smoke above the position had not completely dissipated, and the Japanese troops had already arrived below the position.

    There are ten Japanese troops in a squad. Each squad is equipped with light machine guns, grenadiers, squad commanders, riflemen, etc. The division of labor is very clear.

    Each team alternately covered each other, and launched an attack on the high ground from the bottom of the hillside in a methodical manner.

    They came one after another, like waves crashing on the beach.

    Soldiers of the Eighth Route Army were hiding behind sandbags and trenches, waiting for the order to attack.

    Some recruits who have never fought in this kind of battle have their fingers trembling.  But his eyes were fixed on the Japanese troops who were advancing towards the high ground.

    "Fire!!!" Lin Daqiang roared, and then took the lead in using the Mauser pistol in his hand to shoot three times at the Japanese soldiers below.

    The other soldiers heard this roar and immediately started to pull the trigger.

    ¡°Bang bang bang!!! Ta da da!!¡±

    The sound of light and heavy machine guns coupled with rifles echoed in the blink of an eye on the positions held by the Eighth Route Army.  From the shooting holes between the sandbags and inside the trenches, countless gun muzzles fired thousands of rounds of bullets, pouring into the Japanese camp.

    Several Japanese squads charging ahead were knocked down by a dense jet of bullets almost in the blink of an eye.

    "Ah!!!" Some wounded Japanese soldiers whose legs were broken by bullets or whose chests were shot screamed on the hillside.

    The moment the Eighth Route Army opened fire, the Japanese mortars and machine gun positions in the rear also began to roar.

    More than a dozen Type 92 heavy machine guns fired bullets at the Eighth Route Army position at the same time.  A dense rain of bullets splashed on the heads of these Eighth Route Army soldiers in an instant.

    ¡°Many recruits of the Eighth Route Army, due to lack of experience and too much exposed body area, were shot through the head by heavy machine gun bullets and bullets fired by Japanese infantry below.

    Although the helmets they wear can withstand stray bullets and some bomb fragments, they cannot stop rifle bullets fired at close range.  The Japanese army's 38 caliber bullets were enough to penetrate these helmets.

    "Be careful to hide!! Don't stick your heads out!! You have big heads! I'm afraid the little devil's bullets can't hit you!!" The company and platoon commanders of the Eighth Route Army were all yelling in the trenches.

    The Japanese mortar troops also began to attack the Eighth Route Army after determining the coordinates and distance.The position was subjected to fierce bombing.

    But what they bombarded was not the Eighth Route Army position at the front.  Because it was too close to the Japanese charging troops, it was easy for grenades to fall on one's own head and accidentally injure the charging Japanese troops.

    So their mortars actually focused on the rear of the Eighth Route Army.

    This can also play a role in killing the enemy, and to a certain extent, disrupt some of their deployment on the position.

    The soldiers of the Japanese army were lowering their waists while advancing while shooting at the Eighth Route Army above.

    There are many veterans in the 114th Division. After a short period of aiming, many of them can hit the Eighth Route Army soldiers who are a hundred meters away.

    Although these soldiers of the Eighth Route Army have a strong will to fight, their marksmanship is far behind those of these Japanese veterans.

    They wanted to kill the Japanese troops not by relying on precise shooting, but by covering firepower.

    After all, things like marksmanship need to be fed with bullets.  Most of the troops in the Eighth Route Army were very short of bullets and had no spare bullets for the new recruits to practice marksmanship.

    Many recruits only actually fired a shot when fighting this Japanese army.

    Relying on superior firepower and the charge of elite soldiers, the Japanese army quickly shortened the distance between them and the Eighth Route Army.

    Chen Shiliang was in the distance, observing the battle situation on the entire front.

    The Japanese army's attack was comprehensive. The position where the Eighth Route Army was stationed was only one of the focuses of their attack.  In several other positions, the Japanese army was also frantically attacking their positions.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
