Chapter 1720 Forward! Forward!

During this attack, He Rukai, the commander of the 146th Division, led the team to charge.

Just before the artillery brigade was ready for artillery fire, He Rukai brought the 3rd Regiment of the 146th Division into the attack position, which was only a short distance from the shooting corpses designated by the artillery brigade.

At this distance, your own shells may fall on your head at any time.

But He Rukai no longer cared about so much, because the failure of the previous two attacks made him feel blank. If he still couldn't break through the Japanese defense line this time, not only did He Rukai's face have no place to put it, but the 146th Division's face have no place to put it, and even the 22nd Army has no place to put it.

So this time, He Rukai also tried his best and fought hard!

About five minutes after the artillery brigade's shelling began, the armored brigade's tanks entered the attack position.

Seeing tanks sailing into the attack position, He Rukai's heart fell back into his stomach.

This time, with the coordinated combat of tanks, there should be no problem and we should be able to break through the Japanese defense line.

The artillery brigade's artillery fire was prepared for about twenty minutes, and then it began to carry out extended shooting at the Japanese's deep positions.

As the firepower of the artillery brigade began to extend, He Rukai jumped up from the trenches, raised the Browning pistol in his hand and shot it at the night sky above his head, and then shouted: "Brothers, fight with me and kill me!"

"Kill! Kill!" More than a thousand officers and soldiers of the 3rd Regiment of the 146th Division jumped up and rushed forward with Enfield rifles that had been bayonetized.

Almost at the same time, more than 30 Vicks light tanks of a tank battalion of the 1st Armored Brigade also began to advance.

The tracks rolled, the smoke and dust rolled over, and bombs exploded from time to time in front of them, emitting dazzling red light, illuminating the national tanks and infantry that were advancing.

Suddenly, a dense rain of bullets poured out violently in front of him.

The dazzling bullet tracks were like the flame whip of death under the night, whipping towards the advancing national tanks and national infantry.

"Dangdangdang!"

The front of the tank has armor of more than 15mm thick, unscathed.

However, infantrymen who lack protection were shot and fell into pools of blood.

He Rukai was originally walking on the right hand of the tank, but he saw the opportunity quickly and hid behind the tank, so he was lucky enough to escape the disaster.

"Tracing bullet!" The next moment, He Rukai yelled sternly, "Tracing bullet!"

Due to the noise of the tank engine, the tank soldiers in the car could not hear Bu Zhen's loud shouting outside, so they could only guide them through the red flag.

If you cannot see the red flag at night, you can use a tracer bullet to indicate the direction.

He heard He Rukai's order, more than a dozen infantrymen who followed him replaced tracer bullets one after another.

"Eleventh Oct direction! Eleventh Oct direction!" After the infantry replaced the tracer bullets, He Rukai shouted again, "Shoot!"

More than a dozen infantrymen opened fire at the same time, and dazzling tracer bullets instantly cut through the dark night sky, pointing out the direction of shooting for the tank soldiers in the tank.

After receiving the guidance of the infantry, the tanks that were fighting in concert immediately turned the turret and locked the Japanese heavy machine gun position at the eleven o'clock direction. Then, with a bang, a 47mm caliber bullet roared out. In the next moment, the Japanese heavy machine gun position dozens of meters ahead turned into a ball of red light.

There are two main gun calibers left by the British and Burmese army. The early ones were 37mm, while the later models were replaced with 47mm, which had a larger caliber and stronger lethality.

With just one shot, the Japanese heavy machine gun position was blown to the sky.

"Go forward, move forward!" He Rukai patted the tank's wall and signaled the tank to continue rushing forward.

The Vicks light tank numbered "012" started again, and the tracks rolled forward.

"Follow up, follow up!" He Rukai turned around and followed with a dozen infantrymen.

After rushing forward for about twenty meters, we arrived at a trench. The trench with a width of about two meters was unable to stop the advance of the Vicks tank and continued to advance.

But at this moment, a Japanese soldier suddenly rushed out of a scattered trench next to him.

With the red light emitted by the bombs in the distance, He Ruyi saw the Japanese holding a bundle of explosives in his arms.

"Kill him to death, don't let him get close!" He Rukai raised his hand and shot, but the hit rate of the pistol was not high, and it was night again, so he failed to hit it.

But He Rukai's gunshots are an order.

In an instant, more than a dozen infantry soldiers following up raised their guns and opened fire at the same time.

The dense firepower was instantly poured out towards the Japanese soldier.

The Japanese broke forward six or seven steps, and when he was about three meters away from the No. 012 tank, he finally got shot several times and fell into a pool of blood.

Immediately afterwards, the explosive pack held in his arms exploded.

The five-kilogram explosive pack exploded violently, instantly tearing the Japanese soldier's body into pieces of flesh and blood.

The air waves produced by the explosion swept violently, overturning He Rukai, who was dozens of meters away, to the ground. Even the tank No. 012 was pushed and moved sideways by the air waves for nearly half a meter.

However, the Japanese's suicide attack failed in the end.

"Forward! Forward!" He Rukai reached out and patted the wall on the side of the cockpit of the No. 012 tank twice.

Tank No. 012 drove forward again. At this time, a flare suddenly took off, and a dazzling white light poured down, instantly illuminating the entire battlefield as bright as daytime.

With this dazzling bright light, the front-fired machine gun of the No. 012 tank also began to fire violently.

In an instant, a dazzling tongue of flames ejected towards the Japanese defensive positions ahead.

The Japanese infantry who had just jumped out of the trenches or foxgloves and were about to launch a desperate charge immediately fell down like cut wheat.

"Bang!" At this moment, the No. 012 tank suddenly fell into a big pit.

When He Rukai rushed forward to inspect, he saw that tank No. 012 had fallen into an anti-tank trench. Although the tank driver turned the throttle the maximum, no matter how the tracks were crushed, he could never crawl out of the anti-tank trench.

"Thut the anti-tank trench for me!" He Rukai roared and took off an engineer shovel from his back.

More than a dozen infantrymen took off the engineer shovels prepared in advance, followed He Rukai into the anti-tank trench, and worked hard to dig the frontier of the anti-tank trench under the tank tracks.

With He Rukai and more than a dozen engineers struck the shovels with all their strength, the front of the anti-tank trench was quickly dug into a diagonal break.

The driver of tank No. 012 stepped on the accelerator to the bottom again, and the tracks crunched forward again, and then the bulky tank body crawled out of the trench and advanced forward again.
