The battle, a chaotic battle! From the sky to the ground, the crazy fighting continued. The most tearful person among them was Sakurai Shozo, the commander of the Japanese 28th Army.

He never thought that the new recruits who had joined the battlefield would choose to attack the parachuting pilots. It stands to reason that not attacking parachuting pilots is a tacit and common agreement between countries.

Of course, the Japanese will probably not abide by this agreement. But you also have to look at the target?! If the opponent is the British, American and French armies that were once isolated in Southeast Asia, Sakurai Shozo will not care.

Anyway, after killing them, these European and American countries cannot send troops to retaliate for a while.

But you actually chose to attack the parachute pilots of the National Defense Force?! When Shozo Sakurai received the news, he almost fainted on the spot. But then the crazy bombardment of the National Defense Force woke Sakurai up, and he raised his binoculars to look at the Japanese positions.

There were explosions everywhere.

Shozo Sakurai watched helplessly as the tanks of the National Defense Force rolled directly into the Japanese position. He had no choice but to order a regiment to rush to the position to support them.

This position cannot be lost, otherwise the Japanese army's position will be out of control. Although Sakurai Shozo was angrily cursing the damn Okurihara and others, he still had to support the position.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..." Not only the Japanese know how to use explosives, but also the National Defense Forces. The National Defense Forces' explosive tubes and grenade launchers were not developed in vain.

The targets to deal with were the tunnels and fortifications of the Japanese army. After the forward troops entered the position, the follow-up troops carried a large amount of such equipment directly into the position to provide direct fire support.

"Three o'clock ahead, angle twenty-five! Quick!!" the shooter of the grenade launcher roared, and the deputy shooter beside him quickly handed over the grenade he was carrying.

Generally speaking, grenade launchers are only available at the company level of the National Defense Forces. A grenade launcher is equipped with a shooter and an assistant shooter, each of whom carries thirty rounds of grenades.

But he had just entered the battlefield, and all the grenades on the shooter had already been fired. He could only watch while asking the deputy shooter next to him to hand over the ammunition.

"Boom...boom!!" A Japanese machine gun position that was firing wildly with "taaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa" was directly blown over. The Japanese soldiers on that position screamed and were knocked to the ground.

The soldiers of the National Defense Force who were originally suppressed took the opportunity to swarm forward and rushed directly into the Japanese army's position. They started a fierce hand-to-hand battle with the Japanese soldiers who came to support them.

Scenes like this were constantly being staged on the battlefield, with soldiers of the National Defense Forces fighting on Japanese positions everywhere.

"Malu Yelang! Hurry! Let those Annan people come up. As long as they hold on, I will personally ask for credit for them!" Ogurihara now regretted it. Perhaps he should not have ordered the soldiers below to attack the parachuting National Defense Force.

Ogurihara thought well at first, because the 52nd Division on the opposite side did not continue to attack Ogurihara's position after two probing attacks.

In addition, the Japanese Army Air Force was now able to compete with the raging Defense Force War Eagles, and Ogurihara's thoughts became vivid.

The continuous defeats during this period had a certain impact on Ogurihara's troops. Their morale was extremely low. The culprit was those roaring Defense Force fighter planes.

Their "Mace" heavy rocket-propelled bombs even blew up Japanese military fortifications built underground. This caused great fear to Okurihara's troops.

For this reason, Ogurihara wanted to kill the parachuting air force of the National Defense Force. On the one hand, this would avenge himself for being bombed, and on the other hand, it would also be a good way to improve morale.

As for the so-called tacit understanding and agreement, do the soldiers of the Empire of Japan need to care about these?! If they had cared about these, there would have been no Manchuria Incident. There would have been no Shanghai Incident, and there would have been no Ogurihara troops that have now entered Southeast Asia.

.

It's a pity that Ogurihara didn't expect that he would kill an air force of the National Defense Force, but he was met with a crazy attack by the Army of the National Defense Force. Apparently five precious tanks had been destroyed on the battlefield, why did these damn National Defense Forces still not retreat?

?!

Ogurihara is now in tears. His troops have been exhausted in the first half hour. Now the support comes from other troops of the regiment. I even heard that Commander Sakurai sent troops to the rear.

A whole regiment came to support.

"Boom!!" A 35mm grenade was smashed next to Okurihara. If his guards hadn't pulled him down quickly, Okurihara would only be a bombed corpse that was beyond recognition.

"Attack! Attack!!" Ogurihara pulled away the guard who was leaning over him and roared loudly. Behind him, the Annan National Army's Third Division, which had come up to support him, had arrived on the battlefield.

Under the machine guns of the Japanese supervising team behind them, they were constantly running towards the position. Ogurihara breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this situation. But before he could calm down, he saw a large number of support troops appearing behind the National Defense Forces.

"Fuck these sons of bitches!!" The angry roar could even be heard here. Ogurihara was shuddering and only had four thoughts in his mind: Can he hold on?!

These four words not only appeared in the heart of Ogurihara, but also appeared in the heart of the captain Sakae Kusano. As early as the artillery fire of the National Defense Force bombarded the Japanese positions, Sakae Kusano had already regretted that he agreed to kill Ogurihara.

The matter of parachuting pilots of the Wehrmacht.

But the war has already begun, and there is no use in regretting or retreating. Kusano Sakae knows that either he can repel the offensive of the National Defense Forces, and the military headquarters will avoid punishment for him. Or he can be repelled by the National Defense Forces, and then commit suicide to apologize. No

There is a third way to go.

"Charge! Don't retreat!!" With the same thoughts as Ogurihara, Kusano Sakae pulled out his saber and roared loudly. Just now, Kusano Sakae had already made up his mind. If he couldn't hold the position, he would die in the battle.

superior.

The empire has always treated soldiers who died in battle very favorably. At least the news that his position was stormed by the National Defense Force due to his mistake will be covered up, and maybe he will be covered with a heroic halo. This way, his family will be better off.

.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp...Boom! Boom! Boom..." Before Kusano Sakae finished speaking, the heavy artillery of the National Defense Forces had already begun a second bombardment. The main purpose of this shelling was to prevent the Japanese support troops from outside the position. Therefore,

At the beginning, there was an extended artillery bombardment of the Japanese positions.

Under the heavy artillery bombardment of the National Defense Forces, the Japanese troops and the Annan Defense Forces who came to support were immediately overwhelmed.

"Chirp, chirp, chirp...boom, boom, boom..." The Japanese army's artillery fire could not bear to show its weakness, and there was a burst of bombardment at the artillery positions of the Southwest Military Region.

"Damn it! Have you figured out the Japanese artillery position?!" Fei Xiucheng, commander of the artillery division of the 55th Army of the Southwest Military Region, roared as he looked at the messy artillery position he had been bombarded with.

This was a strategy developed by Fei Xiucheng and the division staff to deal with the Japanese artillery. They first used a heavy artillery position to attract the Japanese artillery firepower, and then determined the location of the Japanese artillery position before retaliating with artillery fire.

Now the air force does not have the upper hand, and the battle with the Japanese army is quite strong. There is no way to detect the Japanese artillery. Therefore, now we can only rely on the artillery to calculate the approximate location of the Japanese artillery positions based on the Japanese ballistics.

"Thirty 70mm 92 infantry guns and ten 105mm guns. The location is about one mile behind Hill 435..." Not long after, the division staff reported the situation.

"The Japanese moved their artillery positions last time, but they were not far from their former positions. In fact, they only moved about five miles to the right..."

This is the location determined based on the caliber and range of two Japanese artillery bombardments.

"Damn! What a nonsense report! Hurry up and get them to prepare the various elements for me to fight!" Fei Xiucheng roared before the staff member finished speaking: "If the delay continues, these bastards will have to change positions again!"

The staff officer nodded, and then directly conveyed the order and coordinates to Zhuyuan. The artillery in the second artillery division position was quickly adjusted.

"Ready...fire!!" With a roar, dozens of 155mm heavy artillery on the position began to roar! The huge roar even covered up the gunshots and fighting sounds on the battlefield!

"Chirp, chirp, chirp...Boom! Boom! Boom..." The artillery wing commander on the Japanese artillery position didn't even have time to shout to lie down before he was drowned by the rain of artillery shells.

The huge roar directly caused air waves to hit the position, and the corpses of Japanese artillerymen were flipped into the air by the air waves! The smashed corpses were flying everywhere, and the artillery pieces were exploding with roars.

Broken in pieces.

"Boom!!" This was the explosion caused by the artillery shells piled up on the position being hit. The explosion caused the warheads and shrapnel of the artillery shells to fly everywhere, constantly killing the Japanese artillerymen on the Japanese artillery position.

The violent explosion even affected a squadron of Japanese soldiers outside the artillery position responsible for protecting the artillery position. Because the judgment of the Artillery Division of the Southwest Military Region was only the approximate location.

In order to ensure that the Japanese artillery positions could be absolutely destroyed, they adopted a comprehensive strike method. To put it simply, they centered on a certain point and then carried out a covering artillery bombardment.

"What?! Our artillery position was attacked by the National Defense Forces?! Red Deer!!" Sakurai Shozo knew that his artillery position was gone, and he went crazy on the spot.

"What is this bastard Tsunoda doing?! Didn't he say that he had found and destroyed the artillery positions of the National Defense Forces?! This bastard! I'm going to shoot him!!"

"Your Excellency, Commander, there is no need for you to shoot him..." Major General Hideo Iwaba, Chief of Staff of the 28th Army, said with a wry smile: "Colonel Tsunoda, he was killed in the first wave of artillery fire from the National Defense Forces..."

Shozo Sakurai slumped down in his chair after hearing this. Even the captain of the artillery regiment was killed. One can only imagine how much the artillery's losses were now.

After Chief of Staff Hideo Iwaba said these words, he himself also became depressed. The current situation on the position is not optimistic. The National Defense Force's strong attack regardless of casualties has broken through three Japanese positions.

Once the last position was breached, the Japanese troops in Muzhou would have to retreat at least ten kilometers to the next fortification.

"Your Excellency, Commander, what should we do now?!" Hideo Iwabe knew that Sakurai Province still had a regiment on the third hand and two Annan National Army divisions as reserve forces.

If all these troops are sent out, they may be able to withstand the attack of the National Defense Forces. But whether they can withstand the attack or not, the Japanese army will eventually lose all its elite troops. And if the National Defense Forces launch another attack, the 28th Army will not even be able to fight back.

.

"Let Annan's Second Division enter the position immediately and order them to stop the strong attack of the National Defense Forces..." Sakurai Province gritted his teeth and said harshly: "If they fail, then we will retreat to the next position!

"

"Hai!" Iwapan Haoxiong thought this was nothing, as long as the losses were not Japanese troops. As for how many troops of the Annan National Army would be lost, he didn't care at all.

Perhaps it would be better if they all died, as long as they could withstand the attack of the Wehrmacht.

"Everyone! Today is the first battle of our Second Division of the Annan National Army. This time we must show our style as soldiers of the Annan National Army. We cannot let the Japanese underestimate us! For Annan, for His Majesty! Move forward.

!”

"Long live! Long live! Long live..." The Second Division of the Annan National Army, which has been transferred to the front line and is on standby, has also begun general mobilization. These divisions are all trained according to the style and methods of the Japanese army.

Therefore, you can clearly see the traces of the Japanese from their uniforms, passwords, and pre-war mobilization. But the most obvious ones are the Japanese instructors mixed in the Annan National Army.

To be honest, the Japanese have put a lot of effort into the Annan National Army. Not only did they send elite Japanese officers as instructors, they even sent a large number of non-commissioned officers as basic instructors.

The weapons equipped are not bad either. The Japanese army's own Type 38 heavy machine guns, Type 92 heavy machine guns, and even 70mm Type 92 infantry guns are all distributed to this unit. Although there are only five, they are better than even the Type 92.

In the Philippines, which is not equipped with heavy machine guns, the Royal Malay Alliance Army is much stronger.

The reason why we take such good care of these Annan National Army is because they did play a certain role in the battle of Dien Bien Phu. At least they are much stronger than those monkeys from the Philippines and Malay.

Therefore, the artillery that would not have been equipped to the coercion army was also deployed. The purpose is to hope that these Annan National Army can play the role of cannon fodder during the battle.

Lieutenant General Nguyen Van Dung, commander of the Second Division of the Annam National Army, is now full of confidence. The weapons provided by Japan even made him feel that even if he faced the former French army, he could defeat them.

In Ruan Van Dung's view, the fact that China could be invaded by the Japanese showed that China was not much stronger. Naturally, when his Japanese instructors mentioned the story of the Japanese army being driven out by the National Defense Forces to him, he used the Spring and Autumn style of writing.

The instructor named Tojo told him emphatically about the Battle of Songhu and the Battle of Wuhan. As for why the Japanese army withdrew from China, Tojo sighed and told Ruan Wenyong that it was because Japan lacked resources and had to deploy its most elite troops.

Southeast Asia.

This gave the National Defense Forces a loophole. If it were the elite army of the Japanese Empire, those National Defense Forces would only be annihilated. Ruan Van Yong believed it, because the French troops in Annam could not even withstand a Japanese charge.

What they had resisted countless times and paid a lot of blood but could not be completed was easily accomplished by the Japanese. In Nguyen Van Dung's opinion, this is proof. Moreover, the occupied Singapore and the restored autonomy of India are all proofs made by the Japanese army.
