"Ugh ugh ugh—"
Koizumi Ichiro's eyes were wide open, black blood oozing from the corner of his mouth. He clutched his neck in agony, struggled for a moment, and then collapsed into a pool of blood.
"Bagaya Deer!!!"
Upon seeing this, a Japanese sergeant immediately charged toward Hill 513 with a Type 38 rifle.
Yang Desheng immediately set up his sniper rifle and aimed at the enemy.
"Smack—!"
"Pfft—!"
Another headshot!
Then, Yang Desheng set his sights on another person.
"Pfft—!"
"Pfft—!"
One Japanese soldier after another fell to the ground, their blood staining the muddy road red.
...
"Commander! The Japanese tanks are here!!"
On Hill 512, Zhang Zhihai, the commander of the 33rd Regiment, lay prone in a trench, observing the movements of the Japanese troops through binoculars, while he heard the panicked voice of his deputy commander, Li Daniu.
Not far away, more than forty Japanese Type 94 ultralight tanks and Type 95 light tanks were rolling over along the road.
"Da da da—!"
"Da da da da da—!"
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The Japanese tanks rolled over at an extremely fast speed, and two platoons of soldiers on the first line of defense were hit one after another, sacrificing themselves in droves.
Seeing this, Zhang Zhihai felt heartbroken. "Da Niu! Go and bring out the six Type 94 anti-tank guns that the headquarters gave us!"
"I'll hold off the Japanese with my men, hurry up!!!"
"clear!!"
"Snap—!"
Six Type 94 anti-tank guns were pushed onto the high ground, and the barrels quickly heated up and emitted wisps of smoke.
"Hurry up and hit him!"
"Bang—bang—bang—!!!"
"Rat-a-tat-tat—!"
"Thump—thump—thump—thump!!!"
The first few Japanese tanks that appeared were riddled with holes and billowing smoke.
Upon seeing this, Major Yamada, the commander of the Japanese tank regiment, was horrified. "Damn those Chinese! They have anti-tank guns! Quick! Push aside the tanks that have been destroyed! We must break through them!"
"Hi--!!!"
The Japanese tanks pushed the wreckage aside and quickly shifted the direction of their gun barrels.
"Rat-a-tat-tat-tat—!"
“Bang bang bang bang bang—!”
The Japanese tanks all turned their guns around, and shells spitting out scorching flames flew towards the 33rd Regiment's position.
"Get out of the way!!!"
"boom--!!!"
"Boom!!!"
A series of deafening explosions resounded through the sky, smoke billowed, air currents surged, and countless trees were overturned.
"Cough cough—cough cough—!!"
Zhang Zhihai coughed a few times, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and gritted his teeth, saying, "Damn those Japanese devils!!!"
"Grenades, Molotov cocktails—throw them!!!"
"We absolutely cannot allow a single Japanese tank to break through our lines!!!"
"yes!!!"
Countless soldiers crawled out of the trenches from both sides of the road, carrying grenades and Molotov cocktails, and smashed them at the Japanese tanks.
In an instant, sparks flew everywhere, countless Japanese soldiers were blown away or blown apart, blood mist filled the air, and screams continued.
"Baka yarou!!"
"Boom—!!!"
A deafening roar suddenly came from afar, and dozens of Japanese shells hurtled toward the 33rd Regiment's defensive fortifications.
Zhang Zhihai quickly lay down, simultaneously commanding, "Get out of the way!!!"
Boom boom boom——————
"Boom—!!!"
Explosions rang out, smoke filled the air, and flames soared.
"ah--!!"
Screams erupted and continued unabated. Some soldiers who couldn't escape in time died on the spot, while many others were groaning in pain from serious injuries.
"Fire! Aim at the Japanese tanks—!!!"
Li Daniu directed six Type 94 anti-tank guns to lock onto the target and pull the trigger.
"Bang bang bang bang-!!!"
Six shells streaked across the sky like meteors, heading straight for the Japanese tanks.
The shells landed on two of the Japanese armored vehicles, causing violent explosions.
The Japanese retaliated by firing several shells, destroying half of the anti-tank guns, but this also successfully halted their advance.
Both sides were blinded by rage.
The fighting grew increasingly fierce, and the casualties increased.
After forty minutes of fierce fighting, both sides suffered losses, and the 36th Division eventually abandoned thousands of corpses and began to retreat.
