Chapter 113 The battle situation changed rapidly and the Japanese became anxious!
"How is this possible? How could it be a German-equipped division? Wasn't the German-equipped division wiped out long ago?"
Oiwa Zhiyi looked at the uniforms of the guard battalion soldiers and said with some horror.
As soon as Oiwa Zhiyi finished speaking.
A signalman hurried over to Oiwa Zhiyi and said, "Captain, the enemy's firepower is too strong."
"The Second Squadron has suffered heavy losses. Captain Yamashita requests tactical guidance."
After hearing this, Oiwa Zhiyi did not slap the signalman a few times as he did before.
Because Oiwa Shiichi knew what kind of troops he was facing.
In Oiwa Shiichi's view, the enemy on the opposite side is the new German-equipped division.
"Immediately notify the artillery squadron and have them bombard the enemy positions and provide suppressive fire."
"Have the grenade launcher team identify the enemy's machine gun firing points and launch artillery bombardment on them."
"Hi!"
The signalman nodded heavily.
"Boom, boom!"
A machine gun position of the guard battalion was shelled.
"This is the devil's grenade launcher, quickly hide!"
Liu Lin, the company commander of the second company of the guard battalion, shouted loudly. Liu Lin knew very well the power of the grenade launcher.
"Boom boom boom!!"
As the Japanese grenade launchers continued to fall, the guard battalion began to suffer casualties.
"Monk, hurry up and pass the order, have the artillery fire at the Japanese grenade launcher team."
"The Japanese grenade launchers are very accurate. They can hit anything you point at within 300 meters."
"So tell the artillery to not let the Japanese grenade launcher team get within 300 meters of our position."
Zhou Weimin also understood the power of the Japanese grenade launcher team, so he quickly gave orders to the artillery.
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, the monk immediately took the order and left.
After receiving Zhou Weimin's order, the artilleryman looked into the gun mirror for a few seconds and then shouted.
"At this moment, 290 meters ahead, at the four o'clock position, one salvo, fire!"
"Boom boom boom!"
Accompanied by a dull thud, ten 60mm mortar shells flew out of the barrel.
Fly quickly towards the front right.
After flying for a few seconds, it landed behind a hillside, followed by an explosion.
The two grenade launcher teams set up by the Japanese here were engulfed in thick smoke.
And just as the guard battalion's artillery continued to bombard.
The soldiers of the New 1st Regiment led by Li Yunlong were less than one thousand meters away from the guard battalion's position.
However, the artillery bombardment from the Japanese and the guard battalion had stunned Li Yunlong and Zhang Dabiao.
Looking from the direction where Li Yunlong and Zhang Dabiao were, tongues of fire were constantly spurting out bullet trajectories from the hill where the guard battalion was located.
The density is simply unheard of.
The two heavy machine guns of the Japanese had just opened fire for less than three or four minutes when they were attacked by concentrated fire from several machine guns of the guard battalion.
In just over ten seconds, it was covered by a hail of bullets.
It doesn't stop there.
The guard battalion also had an artillery unit to provide cover for them. Both Li Yunlong and Zhang Dabiao could see that this artillery unit used light mortars.
It’s just that the shells fired by this artillery were too dense, and I don’t know how many shells were used.
The Japanese were directly blocked more than 300 meters away.
"Rich, this is too damn rich, the firepower is so fierce!"
"In less than ten minutes, the guard battalion's artillery fired at least fifty or sixty shells."
Zhang Dabiao looked at it with envy and heartache and said.
"Damn it! This Tiger Brigade is such a spendthrift."
"There are so many good things, it would be great if they were all mine!"
Li Yunlong was also a little envious and said with some heartache.
"Captain, we better hurry over there, otherwise I'm worried the Japs will retreat soon."
Zhang Dabiao was a little worried that the Japanese would retreat under such fierce firepower.
Besides, Zhang Dabiao just got the news.
Thousands of soldiers from the Tiger Brigade appeared on the outskirts of Cangyun Ridge and were attacking the Japanese fiercely.
The Japanese who were resisting were constantly losing ground.
I believe that it won’t be long before the soldiers of the Tiger Brigade outside Cangyun Ridge will appear here.
"Don't worry, it won't take long. The Japs can't attack us at all."
Li Yunlong saw the battle situation between the Japanese and the guard battalion very clearly. It was impossible for the Japanese to attack in a short time.
Unless the guard battalion's artillery bombardment stops and the machine gun fire weakens.
But is this possible!
You have to know that the guard battalion’s ammunition storage is very terrible.
Besides, Zhou Weimin also has a system. If it is not enough, you can buy it directly in the system.
It can be said that Zhou Weimin is now a huge arsenal.
Just when Li Yunlong and Zhang Dabiao were preparing to support Zhou Weimin.
There were also problems on the Japanese side.
The guard battalion's powerful firepower and continuous shelling caused great losses to the Japanese.
"Baga, baga, how come this German-equipped division has so much ammunition?"
"Their machine gun fire and artillery bombardment never stopped."
After feeling the powerful firepower of the guard battalion, Oiwa Zhiyi kept cursing.
One of Oiwa Shiichi's battalions was a full-strength battalion of 1100 men, and there were also squadrons from two other battalions.
The total is: nearly 1600 people.
But after almost half an hour of attack, they still hadn't captured a small hill defended by more than 600 people.
Instead, more than 300 people were lost.
Such a record had never happened in Oiwa Shiichi's more than ten years of military service.
"Baga, go order the second and third squadrons to open a gap at all costs."
Oiwa Shiichi shouted angrily at the messenger beside him.
"No, Captain, no!"
"Captain, the enemy forces outside Cangyun Ridge are about to break through our defenses."
"We don't have much time left to attack Wing Command."
A squadron leader hurried over from a distance and said to Oiwa Zhiyi.
"Baga, what did you say? The defense line is about to be breached?"
"How is that possible? It's not even half an hour yet. Are the Oda and Yoshida brigades useless?"
After hearing this, Oiwa Zhiyi didn't believe it at all, because there were more than 2,000 people on the defense line.
How is it possible that they can't even hold on for half an hour?
"Captain, this is true. Captain Oda and Captain Yoshida are ready to break out."
"The divisions attacking us are all German-equipped."
"This German-equipped division has twice the number of troops as the Oda Battalion and the Yoshida Battalion, enough for over 4,000 people."
"The enemy's firepower was very fierce, and the artillery fire never stopped."
"The equipment is all German, and the soldiers' combat skills are no less impressive than ours."
"Captain Oda, Captain Yoshida sent someone to let our team break out on their own."
Seeing that Oiwa Zhiyi didn't believe him, the squadron leader quickly told him the current battle situation.
"Baga, these two bastards, these two despicable guys, they actually want to abandon our team."
"What do you mean by breaking out on your own?"
"They've abandoned their defenses. How can we break out on our own?"
After hearing this, Oiwa Zhiyi cursed loudly. He knew that without the protection of the defense line, his team had no way to break out.
