Beat the devil with a system

Page 984

"Reporting to the brigade, the Japanese army launched a fierce shelling attack on our forward positions. The Japanese army used sulfur bombs and poison gas bombs. The brothers suffered heavy casualties..."

After Zhao Wenyao listened to his subordinate's report, he became furious and cursed at the despicable and cruel little devil with all kinds of foul language.

Although Zhao Wenyao was very annoyed, the Japanese army's weapons and equipment were stronger than the national army's, so it was useless for him to rush.

"These despicable little devils really want to fight these enemies face to face..." Zhao Wenyao said helplessly, and he felt that it was unrealistic.

The heavy firepower of the Japanese army far exceeds that of most troops of the national army, and the enemy will not be so stupid as to give up the advantage of heavy weapons to fight face to face with the opponent.

Compared with the Chinese army, the little devil's weapons and equipment are indeed very advanced and powerful.

On the battlefield, if the Chinese army fought against the Japanese army to reduce the casualty rate, it would try their best to fight the little devils with bayonets.

However, the Chinese army is not an opponent of the Japanese soldiers even in a bayonet fight, but the casualty ratio of the two sides will not be much different.

Although the officers and soldiers of the 336th brigade were equipped with some gas masks with the help of the security regiment, not every soldier could be allotted.

If a unit's weapons and equipment are at a disadvantage, it can only be filled with human lives.

Li Hong picked up the binoculars, walked to the door of the command post, and observed the situation at the forward position.

The frontier position became a battlefield with heavy artillery fire, and the devils concentrated a large number of artillery fire, and the position was completely covered by gunpowder smoke and flames.

Dense artillery shells flew over continuously, and the caliber of the devil's shells became larger and larger.

"Boom, boom, boom!!!"

The explosion of shells resounded all around.

The devil's artillery fire was so fierce that the 336 officers and soldiers on the forward position were so bombarded by the devil's intensive artillery fire that they dared not come out.

The officers and soldiers hid in the fortifications all over the position, facing the shelling of the little devils.

In addition to the onslaught of artillery fire from the enemy, there are also little devil bombers in the sky that drop aerial bombs from time to time.

Among the aerial bombs, there are various ammunition, incendiary bombs, gas bombs, and anti-personnel bombs.

Under the double firepower of the little devil, the defensive positions of the 336 brigade could not withstand the enemy's firepower at all.

"Ah, ah, ah..."

The bunker fortifications on the position were destroyed by enemy fire, and the soldiers under the fortifications were blown out on the spot.

There are also many fortifications on the positions that collapsed, and soldiers were buried under the fortifications.

The shells in the distance flew like locusts, bombarding the ground like a carpet.

All kinds of ammunition were intertwined, shrapnel raged everywhere, and the flames of incendiary bombs spread to every corner.

Especially the poisonous gas bombs of the little devils. The gas bombs were mixed in the explosion smoke, which made it difficult for the officers and soldiers of the national army to defend against them.

Everyone knows the horror of poisonous gas. The gas can be said to be pervasive, and it will be scattered everywhere when it encounters the wind, spreading to the entire frontier.

Chapter 886 I Have My Own Way

The officers and soldiers of the 336th brigade on the forward position had difficulty dealing with the little devil's shells, let alone the poison gas bombs.

In just ten minutes, the poisonous smoke from the gas bombs spread all over the soldiers' fortifications.

Many soldiers on the positions were stunned by the enemy's artillery fire and lost consciousness, and it was too late to prevent the gas bombs from entering.

"Be careful, it's a gas bomb!!!"

"Brothers, put on a gas mask, and if you don't have a gas mask, use a wet towel!!!"

The veterans on the battlefield reminded the surrounding soldiers loudly.

However, the poisonous gas spread through the air so quickly that some soldiers had already inhaled the poisonous gas.

"Uh, ah, ah..."

Soon, the screams of pain from the soldiers came from the battlefield.

"My eyes, my eyes..."

"Come and save me, medic!!!"

The soldiers who were attacked by the poison gas were blinded by the poison gas, and they cried out for help under the trenches in pain.

The officers and soldiers of the 336 brigade on the position fell to the position one after another.

The soldiers' limbs were twitching, blood was spitting out of their mouths, and their expressions were extremely painful...

Not long after, nearly a hundred officers and soldiers of the 336th brigade were killed or injured by the devil's poisonous gas on the forward position. ,

The real horror of poison gas is not to kill opponents, but to make hostile targets lose their combat effectiveness.

The officers and soldiers of the 336th brigade had no experience in dealing with gas bombs, and they lacked gas masks. It can be said that the soldiers on the forward positions had no combat effectiveness.

Li Hong has rich experience in fighting with the little devils, and his troops have also suffered from the Japanese gas bombs.

If the gas masks of the officers and soldiers of the 336th Brigade could not be equipped with every soldier, then once the Japanese infantry rushed up, the defenders would have no ability to resist.

Now that the enemy's firepower is so fierce, letting the troops stay on the ground is simply giving away their heads.

Li Hong observed the situation in the forward position, and suggested to Zhao Wenyao next to him: "Brigade Commander Zhao, the casualties of the frontline troops will be too great if this continues, and the brothers have completely become cannon fodder for the devils. I suggest that you withdraw the frontline defense immediately." Army, avoid its edge..."

Zhao Wenyao also knew that the defenders in the forward position suffered heavy casualties, but once all the frontline troops were evacuated, wouldn't the forward position be handed over?

The most important thing is that as long as the 336 brigade withdraws the front troops, the Japanese army will establish various firepower positions as soon as they take the position, which directly threatens the flanks of the security regiment.

"Commander Li, my troops have withdrawn. What about the flanks of your security regiment? If the Japanese artillery positions advance, the enemy's artillery can directly cover your positions..." Zhao Wenyao informed Li Hong of the seriousness of the problem.

The security regiment is kind to the officers and soldiers of the 108th Division. The officers and soldiers of the 108th Division would rather be cannon fodder themselves than voluntarily withdraw from the position, exposing the security regiment to the enemy's artillery.

Originally, the devil's offensive plan was to occupy the frontline positions of the 336 brigade first, and then the enemy would set up heavy artillery positions to attack the flanks of the security regiment.

The flank position is the most vulnerable position of the security regiment, which is why the enemy attacked the 336th Brigade.

Since it was impossible to break through the security regiment's position and release the line, the enemy rushed in from the flanks. The devil commander's tactics were really vicious.

The devil commander is aware of the combat effectiveness of the officers and soldiers of the 336 brigade, as well as their weapons and equipment, so they first occupy the frontline positions of the 336 brigade, and then attack the security regiment, so that the enemy's casualties are the lowest.

As soon as the forward troops of the 336th Brigade withdrew, Li Hong certainly knew that his defense zone would be exposed to the Japanese artillery fire.

However, he dared to withdraw the officers and soldiers of the 336th brigade, so he naturally had an attack method against the Japanese army.

Li Hong put down the binoculars in his hand, and said calmly to Zhao Wenyao: "Brigade Commander Zhao, you don't have to worry about the defense line of our security regiment. I can deal with the Japanese army attacking our defense line freely..."
