    At this time, behind them, the howitzer regiment was still carrying out indiscriminate bombardment against the besieged Japanese troops.

    This bombardment has lasted for more than twenty minutes, and the terrain of the area covered by artillery fire has even turned into the surface of the moon, with dense craters everywhere, just like the surface of a honeycomb.

    The Japanese troops in this bombing area were even more miserable, with screaming Japanese wounded soldiers everywhere.  And the screams were often drowned out by the explosion of artillery shells, and even another artillery shell landed around him, directly helping him get out of the pain.

    The Japanese troops dispatched by Ratsumoto Honda to attack the defense line seemed to have seen their brother troops being violently bombarded by the enemy.  They subconsciously quickened their pace.

    ¡° But what many people didn¡¯t expect about these Japanese troops was.

    Those shells are now bombarding their brother troops, so they can be used to bombard them.  Compared with Xia Yang's superior artillery firepower, the Japanese army here at this time had almost no heavy artillery that could be used.

    Some large-caliber heavy artillery, although the range is far enough, the caliber is also very large.  However, because of the existence of anti-artillery radar, the Japanese troops did not dare to use these artillery shells easily.

    According to Okamura Neiji¡¯s request, these large-caliber heavy artillery were dispersed at this time.

    Every two guns.  As a group, we began to prepare for guerrilla warfare with Xia Yang's artillery unit in this area.  He determined that the enemy would never be able to lock on to artillery shells fired from dozens of directions at the same time.

    Okamura Neji did not want to expose these artillery pieces to Xia Yang and his troops prematurely.  Therefore, only some small-caliber mountain artillery and field artillery will participate in this rescue plan for the two besieged brigades.

    After more than ten minutes, the Japanese troops advancing at the front had entered the range of the Fourth Army's defense line.

    Almost at the same time, the fierce artillery fire coverage also came to an end.

    The armored troops of the Fourth Army, which had been waiting on the periphery for a long time, and the more than 30,000 infantrymen dispatched by the Commander-in-Chief of the Guards, began to follow the order and launch a final fierce attack on the Japanese troops trapped inside.

    Those Japanese soldiers climbed up from the crater, even under the scorched earth.

    Akechi Xiahui shook the dirt on his head. There were even a few shrapnel with green smoke in the dirt.  When I touch it with my fingers, it's still very hot.

    He stood up and looked around. As far as he could see, there were corpses and body tissues of Japanese soldiers everywhere.

    Broken fingers and arms, charred internal organs, and dark red blood were scattered around him.  In addition to these corpses, there were many wounded soldiers who kept wailing after the shelling.

    Some of them were blind, with only dark holes left in their eyes.  His entire face was severely burned by the high temperature generated by the shell explosion. On the battlefield full of craters, he walked helplessly with his hands stretched out, and then fell to the ground with a thud, letting out a desperate wailing sound.

    There were many wounded soldiers covering their wounds and screaming in pain.  This area where the Japanese troops gathered has turned into a scene like purgatory on earth under the bombardment of Xia Yang's large-scale howitzer group.

    Akechi Xiahui endured the grief in his heart, pulled out the command knife from his waist, and roared: "Gather the troops and break out!!!"

    At this time, under the fierce bombardment, many Japanese troops had even lost their complete organization.  But they still completed the assembly quickly.

    Less than two kilometers in front of them, Xia Yang's armored troops, with a large number of infantry, began to advance step by step.

    ¡°Boom boom!!!¡±

    The shells on the tank guns had begun to explode in front of the group of Japanese troops.

    "Everyone, rush over, don't be afraid, don't be timid, you are all the bravest warriors in the empire!!"

    Akechi Xiahui rode a war horse, waving the command sword in his hand, while running wildly among the Japanese troops, shouting loudly to encourage them.

    After a simple reorganization, the Japanese troops began to launch an assault according to the plan.

    Si Yu, who was sitting on the tank, looked through the observation hole and the telescope at the Japanese troops charging towards their armored troops, and then said with a smile: "It seems that we still haven't let the little devils understand not to launch attacks on the armored troops."  Long live the principle of charging."

    On the intercom, other tank crew members said: "Then let them remember it."

    Siyu sneered,He said in a loud voice: "The troops slowed down their advance, built a defense line with tanks and armored vehicles, and pushed forward little by little."

    "yes!!"

    All tanks and armored vehicles immediately followed Si Yu¡¯s order and gradually slowed down their advance.  The soldiers who originally had to jog to keep up with the tanks slowed down and walked behind and on both sides of the tanks.

    Such scenes did not only occur in the tank regiment commanded by Si Yu.  Several other tank regiments and motorized infantry regiments gradually slowed down their advance in the face of the Japanese troops charging towards them.

    "Artillery begins bombarding, machine guns prepare, and when the enemy enters the 500-meter range, fire suppression begins. The infantry waits until the enemy enters the 200-meter range before launching an attack." Si Yu shouted.

    His orders were transmitted to the ears of every company commander through the intercom.

    ¡°Click!!¡±

    The sounds of rifles being loaded and heavy machine guns being loaded were heard from the advancing armored troops.  Their movements were uniform and looked very pleasing to the eye.

    At this time, the artillery and turrets on the tanks began to rise little by little, aiming at the Japanese soldiers who couldn't wait to come over and die.

    "The artillery starts bombarding!!"

    Siyu roared, and the tank guns immediately began to bombard the Japanese army.

    These tank guns don¡¯t even need to be deliberately aimed.  Because on the front of their attack, Japanese charging infantry can be seen everywhere.  At most, there were some Japanese troops carried on sidecar motorcycles, and not even a few cavalry were found.

    Faced with such a mobile Japanese army, their artillery only needs to cover and bombard the front to ensure the killing and suppressing effect on the Japanese army.

    ¡°Boom boom boom!!!¡±

    The shells on the tank fell into the charging Japanese crowd in the blink of an eye.

    But the Japanese soldiers did not stop charging because they knew that if they did not shorten the distance between them and the tanks, they would be bombarded by tank guns.

    Only by rushing forward can they find a chance to fight the enemy in close combat.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
