"Report to your Excellency, there are fierce cannon sounds coming from the front. It should be that the village brigade has already exchanged fire with the Chinese army."

"Don't take it seriously, the village brigade is just attacking tentatively. This is the order of Lord Sasaki. As long as all our heavy artillery arrives, Changshu? Hum, that's just a piece of meat in the mouth of our great Japanese Empire."

The captain of the 38th Regiment, MCC, laughed strangely. They were still ten kilometers away from Changshu at this time. And they were not in a hurry to march because their heavy artillery had not arrived yet. If they wanted to take down the important town of Changshu, it would not work without heavy artillery.

The village brigade was the first to arrive outside Changshu City, and it was just a test attack.

According to the Japanese spy line in Changshu City, the enemy troops stationed in Changshu City were not as many as imagined, and there was no force of a division at all, probably only one brigade of troops.

However, this incident cannot be confirmed, so this village, as the first to launch a tentative attack on Changshu.

Of course, the MCC Japanese were absolutely not worried about the safety of the village brigade. Because it was a whole brigade of elite imperial troops, not to mention that he did not believe that the Chinese army would have the courage to run out of the solid fortifications to fight the imperial army head-on.

The old Japanese MCC always believed that everything was in his control. But he didn't know that his village brigade was moving towards the abyss one step at a time.

Dragon Boat Festival is a natural hunter. Once his prey is targeted by him, there will be only one end, which is death.

The village brigade confidently sent two squadrons to gradually approach the right wing position of Changshu under the cover of artillery fire.

The soldiers followed the Dragon Boat Festival orders and first used machine guns and provoked the Japanese with rifles. Then, after the Japanese took revenge, all the troops hid. The first battalion of Sun Zemin's army quickly moved in front of the formation.

At the same time, the Japanese army believed that the Chinese soldiers were vulnerable and accelerated their advancement.

And everything went very smoothly, which made the chargers even feel that the Chinese were vulnerable and were just a group of cowards. Even the soldiers of the Second Squadron felt that it was simply wrong to not bring weapons to the battlefield.

They didn't need to charge forward with sandbags. Instead, they could step onto the defensive positions of Chinese soldiers with weapons.

In their hearts, Chinese soldiers were simply a group of cowards and stupid pigs. They would only tremble under the guns of the Great Japanese Empire.

Their machine guns only fired at the enemy's positions twice, and the opponent was silent.

They even felt that Chinese soldiers were scared away by their machine gunners.

So the Japanese in the Second Squadron even gave up the sandbags, some took out bayonets, some picked up stones, and together with the Japanese in the First Squadron, they charged at the right wing position in Changshu.

Because such cheap military achievements are not something you can pick up at any time. Even the Japanese in the machine gun position could not help but rush forward with the infantry.

When the devils in this village saw that everything was going well in their troops, they smiled proudly: "The Chinese are all a group of timid guys. Master Matsui is so careful. After a series of failures, the Chinese soldiers were just a group of frightened birds. How could they dare to fight the decisive battle with our imperial army in Changshu area?

The Eastern Magino is just a joke. As long as we seize the right wing position in Changshu, Changshu's flanks will be exposed under the iron hooves of our great Japanese Imperial Army. The small Changshu City is already our possession."

"What you are saying is that the Chinese soldiers are all incompetent. I think we can take Changshu City in less than an hour under the wise leadership of your Excellency in this village."

A subordinate of this village is flattering the village. The village is holding a telescope in his hand and laughing.

But I didn't expect that at this moment, the right wing positions in Changshu suddenly shot out, and the two squadrons that rushed up were instantly drowned out by the gunshots and explosions.

The explosion was caused by countless grenades. The killing of grenades was the largest when the Japanese army approached 30 meters.

The sudden explosion made the Japanese jump like ants on a hot pan.

At this moment, various guns, machine guns, rifles, pistols, etc. opened fire together, and the Japanese retreated in a panic.

At this moment, the Japanese had no chance to fight back, and the soldiers of the 44th Division finally felt the pleasure of being completely crushed.

In previous battles, they suffered a great loss in fighting with the Japanese army. The weapons in their hands were not as accurate as those of the Japanese, and the huge recoil of the 79th rifle made it very difficult for ordinary recruits to control.

But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that because Chinese soldiers lack essential shooting training, no one except some veterans can confront the Japanese head-on. This gives Japanese people a very advantage in shooting.

Often, in a battle, before the Japanese launched a charge, more than half of our positions were injured or killed.

But at a distance of 30 meters, as long as the soldiers are not blind, they can almost hit the Japanese.

What's more, although two squadrons of the Japanese army rushed up, nearly half of the squadrons of the Japanese didn't even bring guns.

The second squadron rushed up with sandbags. But halfway through, it was found that the Chinese army was cowardly and did not even have the courage to fight back. They threw the sandbags, picked up stones and bayonets, and wanted to come up and pick up the cheap ones.

So at this moment, when the Chinese soldiers' guns and cannons fired, they could only flee in a panic.

But at this time, how could the soldiers of the 44th Division give them this opportunity? Most of the Japanese were killed in front of the formation, and a small number of Japanese fled to the same path.

The first battalion commander roared and rushed out of the trenches with all the soldiers to chase and kill the fleeing Japanese.

"Baga Road!"

When the Japanese in the village were watching the battle, they saw their first squadron and the second squadron defeated, they ordered the artillery to fire amid a roar to stop the Chinese army from pursuing.

But at this moment, four 105mm howitzers had already landed on the Japanese artillery positions with great accuracy.

After a loud bang, the Japanese artillery positions were directly razed to the ground. The Japanese on the artillery positions seemed to have evaporated from the world all at once.

Some of them were blown up directly, while others were blown to the bottom of the mountain. Mortars and shells of the artillery were splashing everywhere.

Some Japanese in the Fourth Squadron of the Village Brigade on the top of the mountain were also affected, with more than a dozen casualties.

The Japanese in this village were blown up to dust and got up and panted.

He looked at the direction of Changshu City in a daze, and had no idea where the shell was fired.

"Your Excellency, there are enemies on our right wing, and there are a large number of enemies."

At this moment, a Japanese soldier came to report that there were enemy troops on their right wing, and there were a large number of enemy troops.

"Nani?"

The devils in this village couldn't believe it, but he felt that he was plotted by the enemy. Everything was fake. The Chinese were not cowards. They were like a fierce beast, hunting their prey.

The Chinese people came out, but they did not hide in the hard fortifications, but walked out openly and fought with him!

This seems to be a scene that the village had imagined countless times before, fighting his enemies head-on.
