Chapter 162 The Japanese launched another attack
After receiving orders from Sakata Tetsu, the 2nd Battalion of the Japanese regiment quickly joined forces with the engineers and formed a battle formation to launch a second attack on Yunling.
On the high ground behind the Red Party's position.
"Really, they're all used up? Not a single one was left?"
Li Yilong, unwilling to give up, asked Bai Luo.
Taking advantage of the lull in the Japanese army's first wave of attack being repelled, he came to Bai Luo's position under the pretense of delivering food.
"Yes. They were all used in the first wave of the Japanese attack."
Bai Luo, with a steamed bun filled with horse meat in his mouth, answered Li Yilong's question in a muffled manner.
"Not a single one was left?"
"Yes, not a single one was left."
Li Yilong looked at the little thing whose face was now stuffed up like a bun, and after confirming that the little thing was not lying to him, he realized that it was not lying to him.
Li Yilong silently cursed this spendthrift in his heart. Couldn't you have just blown it up twice?
But it's no use saying anything now, so let it be.
Moreover, this was an unexpected surprise in the first place.
Li Yilong, who had been self-destructive, quickly adjusted his mindset.
Just then, a messenger came running towards them.
She was panting heavily when she arrived in front of Li Yilong.
The messenger forcefully suppressed his violent breathing.
"Regimental...Regimental commander, the Japanese have launched their second attack, and...they've even sent...engineers up here."
Hearing the messenger's intermittent words, Li Yilong subconsciously replied.
"Why did the Japanese send engineers up here? There are no landmines left."
After saying this, Li Yilong suddenly realized that he had asked a stupid question.
They knew the landmines were gone, but the Japanese soldiers didn't.
After being blown up by Bai Luo's powerful landmine, the Japanese aren't stupid; they'll definitely send in engineers to clear the mines.
But a fake is a fake, and besides, there isn't a single fake mine in the minefield right now. The Japanese engineers will definitely find it as soon as they come up.
With this, the Japanese soldiers had no more scruples in their attack. Having suffered such heavy losses in the first wave, the Japanese were certainly not going to swallow this insult.
This attack won't end as abruptly as the first wave.
Thinking of this, Li Yilong also stood up and immediately led the messengers to the front line to direct the battle.
Upon hearing that the second wave of the Japanese soldiers' attack had begun, Bai Luo, who was sitting next to him, quickly finished off the horse meat sandwich in his hand in a few bites.
He wiped his hands on the bear's leather, ignoring the bear's resentful little eyes, picked up the Barrett rifle, placed it on the cover, and looked down the mountain.
At this point, the Japanese soldiers had appeared more than 300 meters from the front line, unlike the first attack.
This time, the Japanese soldiers advanced very slowly, taking each step cautiously, clearly having learned from the lessons of the first wave of attack.
Moreover, when the Japanese troops were about 300 meters away from the first line of defense of the Red Army, they began to suppress the Red Army's forward positions.
Not only that, the Japanese soldiers who followed them also brought up three Type 92 heavy machine guns.
When Li Yilong arrived at the first line of defense, the Red Army soldiers around him were already suppressed by the Japanese heavy machine guns and could not raise their heads.
Li Yilong thought to himself that this would definitely not work. He couldn't let the Japanese soldiers advance so easily. He turned around and shouted to the artillery squad of the second line of defense.
"Wang Zhu, are you looking at the scenery? Hurry up and use the mortar to take out that heavy machine gun emplacement on the other side."
The voice just fell.
Li Yilong only heard three loud gunshots coming from the high ground behind him.
"Boom bang bang."
As the loud gunfire echoed throughout the Red Army's defensive positions, the firepower of the attacking Japanese soldiers was immediately reduced by more than half. Upon seeing this, Li Yilong immediately shouted loudly to the soldiers around him.
"Counterattack! Aim at the Japanese engineers! Don't let the Japanese advance too easily!"
After speaking, Li Yilong turned his head and looked through his binoculars at the high ground where Bai Luo was. He saw that in the dust kicked up by the Barrett, a thick gun barrel was still emitting wisps of smoke.
Li Yilong thought to himself that it was indeed this little thing that caused the commotion. Luckily, he hadn't refused to be a nanny back then.
Putting aside that powerful heavy machine gun, the gun in Bai Luo's hand alone was far more useful than a cannon.
The suppressed Red Army soldiers, unable to raise their heads, immediately emerged from their bunkers and began to fight back against the Japanese after hearing Li Yilong's order.
Li Yilong also raised his binoculars and looked at the attacking Japanese soldiers.
But when he saw that all three machine guns had been destroyed by Bai Luo, he cursed Bai Luo as a spendthrift in his heart.
It's fine to hit people, but why damage the heavy machine gun? That belongs to Li Yilong.
When the gun fired at Bai Luo, Sato Kinou, the captain of the Second Battalion of the Japanese army, was so frightened by the loud gunfire that he rolled into a nearby ditch.
When they saw that all three of their heavy machine guns had been destroyed by the enemy's mysterious weapon.
Sato Kinou quietly peeked out, holding up his binoculars to carefully observe the Red Party's position based on the direction of the sound. After a short while, he noticed a cloud of dust rising from the high ground at the very back of the Red Party's position.
Through his binoculars, Sato Kino saw a thick gun barrel in the smoke and immediately made a judgment.
That should be where the Red Party's secret weapon is located, and it should be a very powerful gun.
Thinking of this, Sato Kino immediately turned around and shouted to the messenger who was lying not far from him.
"Have the grenade launcher soldiers and the Type 11 light machine gun team take out the sharpshooter on that hill at the very back of the Red Party's position."
"Hi,"
Upon receiving the order, the Japanese messenger immediately ran towards the position of the grenade launcher soldiers at the rear.
Meanwhile, Bai Luo was holding a Barrett rifle, searching for the location of the remaining heavy firepower of the Japanese.
Try not to give the Japanese any opportunity to threaten us.
As for the idea of shooting and moving on, that was Bai Luo's initial thought, but the cat-shaped cart was not easy to take with it.
This is the best position for the cat car to unleash its firepower.
Not long after Bai Luo shot a Japanese squad leader in two, he suddenly sensed a slight warning from his senses. Bai Luo immediately pulled the silly girl next to him, who was holding a Type 191 rifle and calling out the names of the Japanese soldiers, back into cover.
I had just crawled into the cover when I heard an explosion less than two meters in front of it.
After the explosion, Bai Luo immediately leaned out, holding up his Barrett rifle to locate the attackers.
In less than 5 seconds, Bai Luo noticed that several grenade launchers had appeared in a pit more than 200 meters to the left of the Japanese forward position.
After seeing that the Japanese soldiers were already adjusting their coordinates based on the landing point of the previous shell.
Bai Luo dared not delay. He quickly set up the Barrett and prepared to aim and fire.
But just as he was about to fire, he saw the Japanese grenade launcher soldiers on the other side being blown into the air by artillery shells.
It turned out that when the Japanese grenade launcher soldiers moved forward, Li Yilong, who had been paying close attention to the battlefield, saw them and subconsciously assumed that they were going to attack his forward positions.
Li Yilong focused his attention on the group of Japanese grenadiers and found that they had entered a pit and stopped moving. He immediately gave orders to the artillery platoon behind them.
