    Honda Ligen picked up the telescope and saw the battlefield shrouded in smoke ahead.

    The first line of defense of the Fourth Army, which they originally used as a springboard, has now become a mess.  The Japanese soldiers originally stationed there were basically killed alive by the bombing.

    Honda Ligen was in the telescope and couldn't even find a Japanese soldier still standing on the position.  No!  Not even a complete body, a complete body could be found.

    This position originally existed. They could advance and attack, and retreat and defend.  Even if the enemy's cavalry units detour from both wings, they can easily resist the cavalry advance by using direct fire from machine guns.

    But now this position has been razed to the ground. Not to mention their defense force, not even a single living person can be found.

    "This group of lunatics, they actually buried so many explosives under the position. Aren't they afraid that our artillery shells will hit them and detonate the explosives in advance?" Honda Rigen said.

    The staff officer said: "I think the enemy may have buried the bombs deep enough.

    They know the caliber of our artillery and how deep the crater our artillery shells can make when they explode.  That's why I'm not afraid.  "

    Honda Ligen nodded, and then immediately shouted an order: "Order the troops in front to retreat!!"

    Hearing this, the staff officer said: "Yes!!"

    Subsequently, the order for the Japanese army to retreat was quickly issued.

    When the Japanese soldiers who were still fighting with the soldiers of the Fourth Army at the front saw the order to retreat, they, who were already struggling to support themselves, immediately began to retreat crazily to the rear like a tide.

    And the soldiers of the Fourth Army obviously did not intend to give up, and they were all chasing after them.

    The running ability of the soldiers of the Fourth Army is not inferior to that of the Japanese army.  Even the physical fitness assessment standards required by the Fourth Army were much stronger than those of the Japanese army at this time.

    So on the battlefield, there was a scene where the Japanese troops were running desperately in front, while the soldiers of the Fourth Army were chasing after them, beating up the drowned dogs.

    On the entire front, the Japanese army's defeat was unstoppable.  The cavalry troops that circled on the flanks also began to massacre the fleeing Japanese troops.

    They rode their horses and fought directly against the retreating Japanese troops from both wings.  The war horses came kicking, and the sabers fell on the heads of the Japanese soldiers amid a burst of sound.

    ¡°Pfft pfft!!!¡±

    The sound of the blade cutting through the skin and the tip of the knife piercing the human body were all drowned out by the rumble of horse hooves and the screams of the Japanese soldiers at this time.

    Honda Ligen used a telescope to look at the frantically retreating troops, and knew that their frontal assault basically ended in failure.

    If you want to regroup and launch another attack, you have to wait until at least tomorrow.

    But wait until tomorrow, with the advancing speed of the enemy's armored forces, even if they really break through the enemy's defense line, they will have to collect the corpses of the two brigades.

    Even the enemy will not let them break through this line of defense.  They will use this line of defense to continue their push in depth.

    "Will our army continue to organize an attack?" asked the Japanese staff officer next to him.

    Honda Ligen waved his hands and said: "We can no longer organize. Our army wants to break through the enemy's first line of defense again, but we don't know how many casualties we will have to pay. The gains outweigh the losses."

    "The two besieged brigades"

    "Let them disperse and break out, we will give them some artillery support." Honda said helplessly.

    "Yes! General." said the staff officer.

    ¡°Now that Honda Tatsumoto has said this, the Japanese staff officer also knows that it is almost impossible to continue the attack.

    After the soldiers of the Fourth Army expelled the Japanese troops, they entered the first line of defense again.

    After they entered the defense line, they immediately began to repair the position that was bombed into ruins.

    These soldiers were digging trenches. Basically, with a shovel, they could dig out some human organs and tissues, even broken limbs, half a head, etc.

    That round of explosions killed thousands of Japanese soldiers on the battlefield.

    Although the soldiers of the Fourth Army are all veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles, they still feel like retching when they see so many body tissues and severed limbs.

    &nbsp"Send a telegram to the military commander and tell him that the Japanese troops on the front have given up on rescuing the besieged Japanese troops. Just let them clear out the besieged Japanese troops with peace of mind." He Changxing said to the staff officer next to him.

    "yes!"

    Looking at the defeated Japanese army, He Changxing was roughly sure that the Japanese army would not launch another attack.  But he still asked his troops to be prepared to deal with the Japanese army.

    At this time, in the area behind He Changxing, the two besieged Japanese divisions had been divided and surrounded by armored units, cavalry units, and infantry units, divided into several small areas.

    The armored units and infantry units that had been advancing all afternoon temporarily stopped their advancement to allow the soldiers to rest temporarily.

    Although the advance was temporarily stopped, Xia Yang was not willing to let the Japanese army take a breather.  He ordered the artillery units to maintain bombardment of the besieged Japanese troops, and even rocket nests should be bombarded from time to time.

    Even during meal time, Xia Yang did not intend to let the Japanese soldiers live in peace.

    Those Japanese soldiers were hiding in bomb craters and eating cold rice balls.  We can only pray that the cannonballs will not fall into the same crater, otherwise, the seven or eight people in the same crater will all go to see the emperor.

    Akechi Natsuki and Watanabe have realized that they can no longer use radio and telegraph to communicate, otherwise, no matter what they say, they will be intercepted by the enemy's intelligence department.

    But both of them tacitly chose to change the battle plan at this time, because for the whole morning, they did not receive any more orders from General Honda Rimoto.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
