At noon, the Japanese 92 infantry artillery suddenly fired, and the Japanese formal attack began.

The Japanese artillery fired very high. After only one test shot, the landing point of the shells fired was very accurate. There were casualties among the defense personnel of the National Army, and wounded people began to cry on the battlefield.

After a fire was prepared, about a small team of Japanese troops began to attack in scattered lines. The attacking Japanese troops did not charge directly with bayonet rifles like in later film and television dramas, but instead adopted a standard squad attack method.

The Japanese assembled according to infantry squads about 600 meters away from the trench on the fourth company and divided them into several combat groups. After the machine gun and grenade launcher entered the first shooting position, the combat team began to attack, and the machine gun grenade launcher began to cover fire. The soldiers were in groups of three or five, and under the leadership of the sergeant and squad leader, jumping forward layer by layer. During the advance, the Japanese used the advantages of long range and good shooting progress, and shot and killed the National Army from time to time. During the operation, the Japanese used terrain and landforms to cover themselves scientifically. They acted quickly and had a standard movement, so it was difficult for the National Army to aim at the enemy in the attack.

After the Japanese infantry arrived at the first hidden assembly point, all the infantry opened fire, covering the machine guns, and grenade launchers teams followed and set up new shooting positions. After the Japanese new machine guns and grenade launchers were established and firepower points were able to provide fire support to the infantry, the infantry attacked and advanced again. This cycle continued until about 200 meters away from the front of the first line of defense of the Fourth Company.

On the other hand, the fourth company of the second battalion guarding the position at the foot of the mountain were obviously much more panicked. Many soldiers buried their heads in the trench and held their rifles on the edge of the trench with both hands. They did not aim, but just pulled the trigger and shot blindly. The enemy was 600 meters away, and the Czech style could still be used, and it was difficult to hit the official rifle. The soldiers fired desperately when they saw the Japanese army posing for attack. Such shooting did not play any role except wasting ammunition.

Arriving at the front 200 meters of the first line of defense, the Japanese infantry paused to conceal and used the advantage of good gunshot skills to shoot and kill the defenders. At this time, the Japanese artillery and grenade launchers were fully opened, and the first line of defense of the fourth company was attacked on the surface target, and the machine gun and rifle shot and killed the point target.

After one round of artillery fire, the second round of artillery fire came again. This time, the Japanese artillery fire focused on attacking the second platoon positions on the right of the Kuomintang army. Because it was close to the main road, and in the previous round of artillery fire, the most threatening Czech styles in the trenches at the foot of the Chinese army were knocked out by the Japanese grenade launcher, and the firepower of the defenders dropped sharply.

The first and second rows of officers and soldiers on the front line positions can only fight back with rifles. Now all the Japanese army has entered the range. The enemy is well hidden, and the soldiers of the National Army are generally poor in shooting skills. The "ping Ping Pong" is very lively, and not many Japanese soldiers can kill and kill.

As a second-line defensive position, Li Qinglin was about 100 meters away from the trench at the foot of the mountain. When the Japanese army began to attack, the only ones that could really help on the mountain were Czech light machine guns and Maxim heavy machine guns. In order to help the brothers in front, the machine gunners were shooting desperately. The Czech barrels quickly turned red. The deputy shooter had to change the barrels frequently, and the cooling water of the Maxim machine gun began to boil.

Two 82mm mortars in the camp also began to shoot at the Japanese army. I don’t know if the mortar shooters had poor shooting skills or the Japanese scattered soldiers were able to dodge well. The mortar shells seemed to be able to slow down the speed of the Japanese army’s attack and did not kill and injure the enemies on the attack in large quantities.

The Japanese army had reached 200 meters ahead and was within the official effective range of Li Qinglin and others. Li Qinglin and others also picked up their rifles and started shooting.

With the Japanese concentrated firepower, a large number of casualties occurred in the second platoon on the right. The company commander had to transfer people from the first platoon to strengthen the second platoon. The cunning Japanese machine guns aimed at these moving soldiers and opened fire. Most of the people who were originally going to reinforce were wiped out halfway.

At this time, the Japanese infantry took advantage of the second round of firepower strikes and all used bayonets to crawl forward from hidden places to the frontier positions of the National Army. The Japanese individual soldiers were indeed of excellent quality. They used the terrain to crawl and crawl forward with guns, and soon arrived at a hundred meters of the National Army's trenches.

At this time, the Japanese artillery fire stopped. The Japanese army crawled on the ground jumped up under the command of the officer, and rushed towards the national military position with a bright bayonet.

The National Army guarding the trenches had been killed by the precise and powerful firepower of the Japanese army, and the remaining defenders were scared. When the Japanese army charged, they could have used grenades to kill and injure the enemy, but when the Japanese army just started charging, they lost confidence and abandoned their positions and rushed to the mountain.

Those who ran to the mountain thought they didn't run fast enough and basically ran straight, which became a living target for the Japanese army.

As Li Qinglin was fighting, he suddenly remembered that he had a grenade launcher in his hand. He was too nervous just now and forgot about this. He wanted to slap himself.

The grenade launcher and ammunition were placed in the trenches. Li Qinglin called Xiao Liuzi to train him as an assistant, asked Xiao Liuzi to load the bullets, and aimed and fired according to the Japanese military tutorial.

"Boom", the first Type 91 grenade exploded, with a very poor landing point, but it didn't hit anyone. Li Qinglin calmed down and was a little panicked when shooting himself, and maybe he didn't aim well.

The second round was loaded again. This time, Li Qinglin aimed carefully, held his breath and pulled the belt on the firing machine, and the grenade fell into the enemy group.

"Boom", this time is much better than last time, the grenade fell among the charge of the Japanese army. The Kowloon Grenade had a killing radius of eight meters, but due to the large gap between the Japanese scattered soldiers, the bombing hit a Japanese army in charge. The Japanese fell to the ground on the spot, and the blood flowed continuously.

With the first experience, Li Qinglin's confidence increased greatly and fired five or six shots in a row. But now his luck is not so good. Li Qinglin's two sword techniques were fully exposed. These five or six grenades could only delay the Japanese charge and did not kill and injure the Japanese army.

A small Japanese army team broke through the front line of the national army in one charge, which was really beyond the surprise of the national army commanders.

Looking down at the battlefield from the mountain, everything was clear. Four Japanese soldiers were killed, seven or eight injured, and less than half of them ran back in the first and second rows, and a few of them were slightly injured.

According to military rules, if the position is abandoned without orders from superiors, the commander on the scene will be shot. Looking at the two platoon leaders wrapped in gauze and the insane soldiers, he really couldn't do this ruthless move, so he waved his hand to let them go and rest.

When the Japanese army at the foot of the mountain entered the trench, the Japanese began to stab the injured Kuomintang army with bayonets. Listening to the desperate cry of the wounded soldiers in the trench, Li Qinglin said to his subordinates with a green face: "Did you see it? The Japanese are not raised by humans, and they will not even let them go. Each of us leaves a grenade for ourselves, and at the last moment, it is better to be stabbed to death by them."

Everyone nodded silently and subconsciously touched the grenade in the bag on their chest with their hands.

The atmosphere was very heavy. Li Qinglin changed a topic and asked: "We saw all the battle process just now. The Japanese broke through our position with just one charge. Everyone told me what we should learn from them?"

The tradition of the national army is that the soldiers will do whatever the commander asks to do. As for why they do this and how to do it well, they are too lazy to think about it. As soon as Li Qinglin's question was raised, the soldiers looked at each other and no one spoke.
