Chapter 148: Hard to shake

Countless soldiers of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army stood up and rushed towards the Japanese positions. Behind them, mortars of various caliber and Type 92 infantry cannons were ready to open fire.

"His division commander, the Chinese people attacked. They invested tens of thousands of people to attack our positions. The commander of the front line requested reinforcements." Colonel Bai Jiaximing reported in a sweaty head.

"Ten thousand people? Bastards, can't the Chinese really think that they can break through our defense in one go?" Lieutenant General Mudaguchi Ryoya was very angry.

"Your Excellency the division commander, we may have to draw reinforcements up. Otherwise, the defense on the front line will be in danger." Major General Jiro Ichida also said.

The situation in Homalin is indeed very critical. Although they never expected this to happen, they can only grit their teeth and resist the attack of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army. If they fail, the consequences will be unimaginable.

The Japanese army's defense line was now in a mess. The fortifications built by the Japanese army had almost been destroyed in the violent shelling. The positions were covered with minced meat and broken limbs and broken arms, just like the Shura battlefield.

"Get up quickly, are there any living people? The Chinese people launched an attack! They all picked up weapons and entered the position." The Japanese officers on the front line shouted loudly. They drove the Japanese soldiers who had survived the shelling to the position as if they were driving away livestock.

Previously, the Japanese army deployed two regiments and three brigades on the front line, with a total of more than 7,000 people totaling nearly 8,000. However, in the half-day terrifying artillery attack by the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, they had reduced their personnel to only half. Moreover, the remaining Japanese soldiers were still in shock and their morale plummeted. Even if they entered the position, they could still show how much combat effectiveness they could exert.

"Bang! Bang!"

The crisp gunshots, like fried beans, sounded on the position. Many Japanese soldiers lie on the trenches that were blown up and started shooting.

"Puff!"

A blood flower bloomed on the chest of a soldier in the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army. Due to inertia, he rushed forward a few meters before falling to the ground. Blood flowed out of his chest and dyed the ground red.

"Da da da!" The Type 96 light machine gun and Type 92 heavy machine gun on the Japanese position also began to fire.

Many of the soldiers of the anti-Japanese and national salvation army who were attacking were hit and fell to the ground. The rest of the people hurriedly lay on the ground and did not dare to attack again.

The bullets flew over the top of their heads, which was enough to make their scalp numb. Especially those newly enlisted recruits were under tremendous pressure. It seemed that as long as the head was raised a little more, they might be hit. People with a slightly weaker will probably not be able to hold on.

"Mortars, infantry cannons fire!"

The commanders of the regiments commanding the attack immediately ordered the command when they saw that the attack was blocked.

So, a 107mm heavy mortar, an 81mm medium mortar, a 60mm light mortar, and a Type 92 infantry gun opened fire one after another.

Although these artillery are not very caliber and have small power, they are better at the speed of fire. At the same time, they can shoot in a curved manner, making them an excellent infantry support artillery.

After a large number of mortars and infantry artillery fired, the Japanese soldiers on the front line once again experienced a bullet like rain. The shells really fell into the Japanese positions like raindrops. They even fell directly into their trenches, tearing the Japanese soldiers to pieces.

A 107mm mortar shell directly hit a heavy machine gun fire point of the Japanese army. The entire heavy machine gun fire point was blown into the sky during the explosion. The Type 92 heavy machine gun was directly blown into parts.

"The division commander, brothers from the air force, found that Japan himself was sending reinforcements to the front line." A staff officer reported.

"Please ask the air force to block Japan's reinforcements. Let the artillery regiment and the artillery battalions of each regiment continue to open fire to block Japan's reinforcements." Sun Changwu immediately ordered.

Under the fierce attack of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, the Japanese army on the front suffered extremely heavy losses. But if their reinforcements arrived in time, this would affect the attack of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army.

"Yes, the commander."

"The division commander has an order to continue firing and suppress Japan's reinforcements." Lu Shan, the commander of the artillery regiment, ordered.

So, the artillery soldiers who had just rested for a while, dragged their tired bodies and started firing at the Japanese army again.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

This time, a large number of artillery fired the Japanese deep positions, and the shells fell into the Japanese reinforcements, bombing the Japanese soldiers into the air and split into pieces.

At the same time, the P-51b fighter jets in the sky also began to strafuse the Japanese army to further suppress them.

"Da da da da!"

A P-51b fighter jet passed over the Japanese heads, and a series of aviation machine guns shot over, and more than a dozen Japanese soldiers fell into a pool of blood. The rest of the Japanese soldiers were also scared and lay on the ground, not daring to move forward any further.

The blocking artillery attacks of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army and the attacks of the air force made the reinforcements sent by the Japanese army pay a huge price to reach the front line. Although the arrival of these reinforcements strengthened the Japanese defense line. But overall, in the face of the fierce attacks of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, their defense line is still in danger.

"By! Brothers."

A company commander of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army ordered that more than 200 soldiers under his command encountered fierce artillery attacks with the help of the Japanese defense line. When the firepower was suppressed, they launched a fierce attack on the Japanese positions.

They charged to a distance of less than 100 meters from the Japanese position, and were then resiliently suppressed by the Japanese army.

"Heavy machine guns, suppress the firepower of Japan myself. Mortars, knock off their machine gun firepower points." The company commander ordered. A 12.7mm heavy machine gun, 5 7.62mm heavy machine guns, and 9 light machine guns began to fire frantically.

The dense firepower hit the Japanese trenches, splashing dust. Many Japanese soldiers were shot and fell into the trenches, and there was no more noise. Other Japanese soldiers could only lie in the trenches and dared not show up again.

All the heavy machine guns used by the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army were supplied with ammunition chains, with a total of 250 rounds of bullets. Therefore, the firepower was very sustainable. Unlike the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun, it used a bulletproof board and a bulletproof board with only 30 rounds of bullets. In the fierce battle, it would be wiped out in a few seconds.

Under the fierce firepower of the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army, the Japanese army could not even raise their heads.
