    "Where's Gatlin!! Let me shoot at the little devil's position!!"

    A commander of the crossing troops shouted.

    They are carrying Gatling heavy machine guns, which are being installed at this time.

    They installed the Gatling gun barrel on a tripod, and then they began to use Gatling to wildly fire at the Japanese positions on the outside.

    At the same time, the sniper brigade also began to use their sniper rifles to shoot at the shooting holes of the Japanese machine gun bunkers.

    Just because of the shooting angle, they often could not directly kill the Japanese soldiers, but could only suppress their firepower and let the Japanese soldiers inside suspend shooting for a period of time.

    Gatling¡¯s ferocious firepower covered the Japanese positions in the blink of an eye, and its extremely dense bullet jet was incomparable to even several heavy machine guns.

    The Japanese army's firepower inside the bunker was okay. On the outside position, the Japanese soldiers were suppressed back into the trenches in an instant.  The Japanese soldiers who poked their heads in casually would most likely have their skulls bitten by flying Gatling bullets.

    The troops crossing the river below took advantage of the suppression of firepower and launched another attack on the Japanese position.

    Such attacks one after another put the Japanese troops defending frontally under tremendous pressure.

    Their bunkers began to be destroyed one by one.

    More than two hours after the battle began, less than half of the dozens of bunkers along the coast were left.

    As for the bunkers on the rear positions, more than half of them fell into the hands of the Third Infantry Regiment led by Chen Linchang.

    On the tragic battle line, corpses were stacked up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

    Looking at the dense rain of bullets and the soldiers being beaten to death, Natsumechuan knew that he was in a desperate situation.

    "Why haven't the flanking reinforcements arrived yet?" Natsume Chuan picked up the phone and shouted.

    Jian Huwei said: "The reinforcements on the flanks were bombarded by enemy artillery fire and have now stopped moving forward."

    Hearing this, Natsume Chuan immediately realized that reinforcements from Jie Huweita might not be able to arrive.

    He immediately said: "Immediately send a telegram to the division commander, telling him our situation at this time and requesting to withdraw from the battle."

    "Yes!! Your Excellency, Captain!!"

    Natsume Chuan knew very well that if he persisted like this, it would be a dead end.  He had to think about the soldiers under his command.

    At this time, there is still a glimmer of hope for retreating from the position.

    If they don¡¯t retreat, their retreat route on the flank will be blocked by the enemy.  Then they really become the turtle in the urn.

    Itagaki Seishiro, who was in the rear, soon received the telegram sent by Natsume River.

    "Order the Natsumegawa Squadron to withdraw from the battlefield at an appropriate opportunity. At the same time, send a telegram to Jie Huweita and ask him to cover the withdrawal of the Natsumegawa Squadron." Seishiro Itagaki ordered.

    "Yes, Your Excellency, division commander." Chief of Staff Nishimura Toshion said.

    Itagaki Seishiro arranged for the Natsumegawa Regiment and the Jie Huweita Regiment to be at the front, and he did not originally want them to defend their positions.

    Rather, after making a gesture of fighting to the death, you should choose an opportunity to withdraw from the battle.  This allowed Xia Yang's troops to penetrate even more unsuspectingly.

    Natsume Chuan was inside the bunker, anxiously waiting for the order to retreat.

    Finally, the communications soldier ran over and said loudly: "Regiment commander, the division commander has issued an order, let us retreat from the flanks immediately, and the Jihu Regiment will cover us."

    Hearing this, Natsume Chuan immediately picked up the command knife next to him and said loudly: "Order the troops to immediately alternate cover and withdraw from the flanks."

    Those Japanese soldiers who were fighting at the front heard the order to retreat and realized that they still had a way to survive.

    However, although they were eager to get rid of the cruel battle in front of them, their order was not in any disorder.

    Each squadron took turns covering and retreated to both wings in an orderly manner.

    Xia Yang, who was watching the battle from a distance, soon saw the Japanese troops who wanted to retreat.

    He immediately ordered: "Order the troops to press forward! The little devil is scared and wants to retreat."

    "yes!!"

    His order was quickly conveyed to the troops crossing the river.

    By this time, they had also realized that the Japanese army wanted to retreat.

    ¡°The military has an order, catch up and bite these little devils!!¡± the commander at the front shouted.

    ?The soldiers immediately got up from the ground and began to roar and attack the Japanese positions again.

    At this time, only one squadron of Japanese troops remained on the position.

    When they saw the enemy troops rushing towards them like a tide, they knew they could not resist them and chose to retreat directly.

    As soon as they retreated, the charging soldiers launched an attack on the Japanese army without any obstacles.

    Natsumechuan led his soldiers and fled to the rear in embarrassment, and behind them, the troops crossing the river were chasing after them.

    Not only that, when Chen Linchang saw the Japanese troops starting to escape from the flanks, he ordered his soldiers to start fiercely attacking the fleeing Japanese troops from the sides.

    The soldiers of the Natsume River Regiment could no longer control so much and just fled forward.

    Because once they stop, the enemy troops chasing behind them will tear them apart like evil wolves.

    Along the way, corpses left by the Japanese army on the road can be seen everywhere.

    Seeing the defeat of the Japanese army, Xia Yang ordered: "Engineer troops, start building bridges immediately.

    I asked them to build the bridge within an hour.  Have the armored forces cross the river as quickly as possible.  "

    "Yes! Military seat!!"

    Their attack was in an orderly manner. The pursuing troops were chasing the Japanese army, while the engineering troops began to build bridges.

    An hour later, the first tank successfully passed the newly built bridge.

    The bridge was temporarily built, but it was large enough for their vehicles to pass.

    Going forward, they crossed the last river, and there was no longer any terrain for the Japanese army to hold on to.

    If nothing goes wrong, their tank troops will be able to rush directly to the city wall of Fanzhi County with an advance.

    The Natsume River Regiment and the Jie Huweita Regiment retreated directly to the rear after being defeated.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
