The Japanese engineer walking in the front held a long-handled metal ring mine detector and carefully looked forward. However, after walking more than ten meters ahead, he stepped on the landmine without any warning.

With a bang, the Japanese engineers were blown into the air. Before the person could land, his body was split into several pieces, and various red and white flesh and blood tissues were scattered all over the ground.

The metal ring mine detector held by the Japanese was also blown into several sections.

Bang! Bang!

Two landmines exploded one after another in a row after more than ten seconds. The two Japanese engineers were also bombed into the air without any warning, and they were killed and sprinkled with blood all over the ground.

"ah!"

"What's going on?"

"Nani? Can't detect the mine buried below?"

The Japanese engineers were stunned for a moment. This was the first time they encountered this situation. The mine-removal artifact that has been tried and tested did not work at all?

"Baga!"

The Japanese engineer company commander Yuan Zhihui suddenly turned dark. As soon as he started to clear the mines, three subordinates stepped on the mine without warning and were blown to pieces and died of uglier death.

"not good!"

Yuan Naoki quickly reacted and hurried to the Japanese corps captain Shirakawa, and said:

"His wing captain, the mines buried here are not metal mines! The metal detectors we equipped cannot detect them!"

Shirakawa Shirakawa said with a dark face: "I don't want to listen to these useless nonsense. I just want to tell you that the Imperial Army will never give up the attack just because of a minefield. No matter what method you use, you must clear a safe passage as quickly as possible!"

Shirakawa Shirakawa is not a fool. He already knew what the situation was like when he saw this, but what could he do? He could only be a senior official and crushed people to death.

Anyway, these grassroots soldiers are war cannon fodders, and they only need a few cents of stamps to be summoned in China. At this time, they don’t have to go to the thunder. Can they give up the attack?

"Hayi!"

Gennaki heard what Shirakawa Shi had meant and knew that it was to use his life to thunder for the engineering company, but he had no way to resist the fate of being cannon fodder, so he could only bite the bullet and nod.

Returning to the mine clearance front, Yuan Naoki roared in a cold tone: "The time for the Imperial Warriors to be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor has come. Everyone has continued to clear mines. Don't stop without orders! Those who violate the order will be killed without mercy and continue to move forward!"

"Hayi!"

More than 30 Japanese engineers showed their determination. After receiving the order to die, they continued to walk forward with the useless mine detector.

Boom boom boom boom, landmines were constantly blown up, and in a short while, more than half of the Japanese engineers were killed or injured. At this time, the Japanese engineers only stepped on a narrow safety passage of five or six hundred meters.

"Damn it, these Japanese officers are really cruel. They actually use their lives to thunder!"

"Yes, these Japanese soldiers are not just a group of people, they are completely domesticated killing machines!"

"Hmph, I have to see how brave they have and how many lives they have to fill in!"

"Tell me the order, everyone is ready for battle and beat me hard later!"

He Haimin and others saw all this and knew very well that the Japanese were cruel to launch a large-scale attack.

Faced with the desperate fighting style of the Japanese, everyone was not emotionally volatile. War was so cruel, and there was no mercy on the enemy!

Now the Japanese are using their lives to break the thunder formation, but when they get closer, these red-eyed Japanese will definitely fight with themselves regardless of the cost of casualties. At that time, it will inevitably be a life-and-death battle where you or I die.

"Bageya Road! How could the damn Chinese Tiger Army be so difficult to crack?"

Seeing that the engineers could not clear the mines and could only use their lives to get through the mines, Shi Benyin's forehead was full of blue veins, and he finally fully witnessed the terrifying position defense ability of the Hu Ben Army with his own eyes.

Takeuchi Shunto sighed and said pessimisticly: "We are still too late, so the Chinese Tiger Army has built an extremely complete defense system.

Even if this is a small seaside town, if we want to attack it in a short time, we will definitely pay an extremely heavy price!”

Ishimoto Inzo asked, "Takeuchi, then do you have any better solutions?"

Takeuchi Shunto said: "If you can land from the seaside fortress, it may be a shortcut. The focus of the Chinese Tiger Army's defense in Yacheng is on land, and I believe that the defense of the sea offensive will not be too strong.

If we can control the fortress first, we can launch a devastating shelling on Yacheng from a high place, and the entire Yacheng defense line will be destroyed without attacking!"

"Yo Xi! This method is indeed worth a try, but it takes too long to do so. So, now we must continue to attack with all our might, maybe we can attack one by one!"

Ishimoto nodded three times, but did not stop the current attack. He was still confident that he could break through Yacheng head-on, even if he would pay a considerable price for casualties.

"Dog Japanese, it's really ruthless! I'm passing the order that all long-range gun positions are available, with a distance of 10.7 kilometers in the northeast direction. First, three consecutive rapid shootings will be launched, and then harassing artillery! I aimed at them and tried not to waste shells!"

Seeing that the Japanese decisively wanted to use their lives to thunder, Yang Yangzheng did not continue to wait and immediately issued a shelling order.

Because the total force is only more than 700, the force is very weak compared to the entire Yecheng defense line, so you can only selectively carry out limited defense. The main position is the seaside hills and highlands, and the sub-position is the river defense line west of the town.

As for the east and north gates, they are more secondary positions, mainly defending them with mine formations, barbed wire and bunker groups and fortification groups within the town.

The Japanese are now determined to use their lives to thunder. If nothing unexpected happens, the Japanese infantry will soon set off a safe passage. In that case, a large number of Japanese soldiers cut into the east defense line of Yecheng, thus entering the street fighting stage, putting huge pressure on the entire Yecheng defense line.

Therefore, the Japanese must not easily be allowed to cut into Yecheng from the east and north. They must cover artillery fire to slow down the pace of the Japanese infantry attack.

"receive!"

"receive!"

"Prepare! Fire!"

In less than a minute, the 11 long-range turrets that had already been adjusted to shoot the world were roaring, and one after another, the shells cut through the sky and blasted straight towards the temporary garrison of the 143rd Regiment.

"Baga! Bombardment!"

"Disassemble quickly!"

"Look down!"

Although the guns were not heard for a while after more than ten kilometers, the Japanese were very alert to sending people to stare at the seaside fortress diagonally.

At this time, when clusters of fire flashed suddenly on the fortress high ground, the Japanese sentry knew that the fortress was firing, and immediately shouted loudly.
Chapter completed!
