In the dark night, Xu Shijiu made a gesture to Ergua. Ergua understood and quickly took out a flashlight from her bag and covered it with her hands, then a little light leaked out from her fingers. Xu Shijiu took out his pocket watch and looked at it with this light. The hour hand was pointed at 0:50 in the morning. In another ten minutes, the scheduled attack time will be the scheduled attack time.

The next moment, accompanied by dull and muffled sounds, traces of light burst out from a distance, and then slashed across the sky above his head with a sharp roar, and then fell forward. Then, a dazzling ball of fire rose up. As the flames bloomed, the huge explosion sounded shattered the originally dead dark night.

Ten minutes before the attack was launched, the artillery battalion began to prepare for artillery fire. 10 75mm caliber Bufus Mountain Cannons poured rows of shells onto the heads of the Japanese army in Luodian. Through the strong light generated by the explosion, the officers and soldiers of the 19th Brigade could clearly see that the Japanese position on the opposite side had been blown into a sea of ​​fire.

From time to time, scorched earth bloomed like fireworks, broken beams bursting everywhere, and even the broken bodies of Japanese soldiers rolled in the sky. You can vaguely see Japanese soldiers running around. Facing the flying steel shrapnel and the threat of death, Japanese soldiers are also afraid, and are not more brave than Chinese soldiers.

Soon, brighter and more dazzling tracer whistled from the other end of the night sky. The sharp whistling could even pierce people's eardrums. Many soldiers from the 19th Brigade covered their ears. As these tracer fell, a huge explosion was instantly shaking, as if they were the end of the world.

This is the Japanese army's large-caliber naval gun being retaliated.

Fortunately, the night covered the sight of the Japanese meteorological observation soldiers, making it impossible for them to provide accurate shooting of the naval gun group. Otherwise, the Japanese naval gun could easily kill the 58th Division's artillery battalion with just one round of artillery. Yesterday during the day, the 51st Division's artillery battalion fought with the Japanese army in broad daylight, and it quickly attracted the volley of the naval gun group and was reimbursed on the spot.

Ten minutes later, the artillery battalion stopped the shelling after firing two hundred shells.

Of course, the National Army's artillery preparations cannot be compared with the Japanese army, just like the Japanese army could not be compared with the US army, because China's industrial foundation was almost zero at that time, and the annual output of the most important war materials was only one thousand tons! Even if a thousand tons of steel was not done anything, it was only used to build shells, how many shells could it be built?

As soon as the cannon stopped, Gao Shenxing rushed out of the attacking position with the commando's bayonet. The national army liked to scream, which was to enhance courage and to shock the enemy. However, this was at night, shouting would expose the target, so Xu Shijiu gave an order to ask twenty commandos to hold the bayonet in their mouths.

Using commandos in offense can minimize casualties.

These twenty commandos are all veterans of the 19th Brigade. Xu Shijiu of course trusts the veterans who are used to fighting assaults. Although more than 500 new soldiers who entered the 19th Brigade are also veterans, they are not familiar with the style of the 19th Brigade and are even more familiar with Xu Shijiu's command habits. They will miss major issues at critical moments.

After the shelling, no shouting from the national army, nor did they see a large group of national army charge with bayonets. The entire position returned to death silence. The Japanese army opposite was obviously not used to it, but they still realized the danger and fired two flares into the sky in succession.

The strong light of the flares instantly illuminated two kilometers in a radius as bright as day.

Gao Shenxing and twenty commandos with bayonets were no longer hiding. The Japanese army on the other end of the stone bridge opened fire violently. A Type 92 heavy machine gun and three crooked light machine guns intertwined into a tight fire net. The scorching bullets poured over like water, pressing Gao Shenxing and twenty commandos into the shell crater, and they couldn't even lift their heads.

However, the Japanese army's machine gun fire did not last long.

Soon, the mortar company that cooperated with the main force of the 19th Brigade to attack Luodian came up. There were two mortar companies that cooperated with the 19th Brigade to fight, one here, and the other followed his own hands to the West Line Bridge to block the attack.

In a short while, six mortars were already lined up, and then with the strong light of the flares, they quickly locked the shooting world with just one test shot. Then two rounds of artillery killed the bridgehead position in the west of Luodian Town. All four light and heavy machine guns of the Japanese army were stopped, and a small team of Japanese troops were also bombed.

Gao Shenxing jumped up from the crater, waved his hand again, and twenty commandos rushed to the stone bridge with bayonets and flower mechanisms. Before the Japanese soldiers could get up from the ground, dazzling flames had already obliterated them, and the commandos rushed over like a wind, and then the large army rushed up like a tide.

Kazuoji was awakened from his sleep by the loud explosion. When he was wearing a clothes and walked into the war room, he saw the communications officer guarding next to the switchboard and shouting "Maxi" and "Maxi" to the microphone.

Seeing Hezhiying Er, the communications officer quickly stood attentively and paid tribute.

He Zhiying Er waved his hand and frowned and asked, "Is Luodian attacked?"

The communications officer said: "The deputy captain of the corps has just called and said that Luodian was bombarded by the Chinese army, but the phone was interrupted soon. I suspect that the telephone line was broken by the Chinese army." After a pause, the communications officer asked again, "Captain of the corps, should we send a communications officer to repair the broken telephone line immediately?"

"No need, Luodian is probably attacked. Have these Chinese people really turned into night owls?" He Zhiyingji waved his hand and said, "Order, Yoshino Squadron immediately rushed to Luodian."

The 44th Infantry Regiment has limited troops, and even if it has just been filled with more than 3,300 people, after strengthening the front-line forces, the troops left behind in the corps headquarters were only half an infantry brigade, so Kazuoji could only send a squadron to help Luodian. However, Kazuoji was not very worried about this. Luodian had two infantry squadrons, and a chariot team was sent in the middle of the night, and Kinoshita Hideyoshi was in charge of command. The Chinese army could not get any advantage.

"Boom, boom!" Six shells fell into the Japanese bunker like eyes and exploded one after another. A machine gun nest of the Japanese army in front disintegrated in an instant, and several steel plates flew into the air. The three Japanese soldiers hiding in the machine gun nest were also torn into several large pieces by the air waves caused by the explosion, and the nearby Japanese soldiers were also tilted.

Before the smoke of gunpowder spread, Ergua rushed into the Japanese position with a flower mechanism.

A Japanese sergeant who was overturned by the air waves came back from a brief shock. He saw a few Chinese soldiers holding submachine guns rushing into the position, and instinctively untied a grenade, bit off the safety ring with his teeth, and was about to blow up the fuse on his steel helmet, a big hand fell from the sky and grabbed his wrist.

Ergua had quick eyes and fast hands. Without waiting for the Japanese Soldier to hit the grenade, she held his wrist. Then she turned the flower mechanism with one hand and looked at the Japanese Soldier's face with a short shot. Two blood flowers bloomed on the Japanese Soldier's face with white heads, red blood and bone fragments smeared all over the ground behind his head, bloody.

Gao Shenxing passed by with a bayonet on his mouth, and couldn't help but look sideways.

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the darkness ahead, as if a stone mill was crushing over the ground. The sound sounded familiar, and it seemed that I had heard it somewhere, but I couldn't remember it at once.

While Ergua and Gao Shenxing were listening, the Japanese army in the town fired two more flares. With the strong light of the flares, the two and more than a dozen veterans were extremely surprised to find that there were two large black iron lumps in the cotton field ahead at some point, and they were slowly crushing forward. It turned out to be a tank of the little Japanese!

"Iron Tornado!" Ergua shouted and rushed forward and lay on the ground.

Gao Shenxing's reaction was not slow either. He lay on his side in the ditch under his feet. He said that at that time, the Japanese tank's front-firing machine gun fired violently. Ergua and Gao Shenxing's more than a dozen veterans were lying down quickly. As a result, two veterans were shot, one veteran died directly, and the remaining one was seriously injured and screamed in a shrill voice.

Ergua crawled over and tried to drag the injured veteran into a crater. As a result, the Japanese tank's front-firing machine gun immediately chased him, and two striking smoke and dust were dragged out from the ground that was blown away. Ergua quickly turned over and rolled into the crater. Still, many sand particles splashed on his face and his neck were burning, making him bare his teeth.

Gao Shenxing was also a little stunned. In the first half of the night, he and his solo hands each led a reconnaissance team to touch the Japanese army's periphery. He even touched the town alone. Even the Japanese command center had reconnaissanced at close range and was sure that no Japanese tanks were found. Why did it suddenly appear again?

The commando was pressed on the open ground and could not move, and the large troops behind had to stop.

The one-eyed chinchilla came to Xu Shijiu with her waist and said anxiously: "Captain, this will definitely not work. After dawn, the Japanese bomber groups will flock to you, and the Japanese large-caliber naval guns will also come over like a sea of ​​attack. Don't mention taking back Luodian at that time, hundreds of people from our 19th Brigade will have to be explained here."

"What are you panic?" Xu Shijiu said slowly, "The sky cannot fall!"

"Uh..." The one-eyed dragon choked, speechless. Xu Shijiu turned his head and ordered Shu Tongwen, "Go and call Company Commander Hu over."

Shu Tongwen left in a hurry.
