The Japanese have gone crazy. They sent 200,000 troops and two fleets from the country to support the battlefield in the Magic City.

It can be said that this incident is unprecedented and it has completely confused the foreigners.

On this day, the Yan State's armies continued to attack the Japanese Marine Corps base and Hongkou District.

They have to take this place before the Japanese reinforcements arrive.

Of course, their equipment was much better than before, but their fighting quality was still very poor, and their failure to capture the city after a long period of siege caused a considerable setback to their morale.

"Division Commander, we can't defeat them at all. The Japanese positions are made of solid cement concrete. Without 155mm caliber heavy artillery, we can't defeat them at all."

A division staff officer said to his division commander.

"Hey, I know that, but we don't have any heavy weapons."

"Son of a bitch, what can I do if the higher-ups don't give me any help? Damn it, I'm forced to curse."

The teacher said angrily.

"Alas, there is nothing we can do. We are not our biological sons. We are a local force, so naturally we don't have that many heavy weapons."

"What a pity! If Chahar had come, perhaps all the Japanese here would have been slaughtered long ago."

After the chief of staff finished speaking, he saw the division commander looking at him. Knowing that he had said the wrong thing, he quickly shut up.

"Humph, do you think it's that easy? Will the higher-ups agree? This is a national war, and it's also a chance for him to consume us. Even if he knows we're not going to fight, this is a national hatred and a family feud."

The division commander spoke after giving his chief of staff a lecture.

"Let the brothers rest, and then let the other divisions go. We have suffered heavy losses, and we may collapse if we continue fighting."

He gave the order, and the attacking front had a chance to evacuate.

The ones who took over the attack were their brother troops. They all came from the same army and walked thousands of miles wearing straw sandals.

It can be said that this attack resulted in the loss of an entire regiment of troops, causing serious damage to the division.

"Okay, you can take a break and we will continue fighting." said a regiment commander who came to relieve the guard.

These words made them clear that this was their fate and their duty.

The focus of this operation is Hongkou, and operations are currently being carried out in this area.

"Baga, the Yan people have no moral principles. One wave after another comes after us. They are really not afraid of death." A team leader kept chattering in the bunker.

"So what? We will win anyway. Their equipment, troop quality, national strength, etc. are no match for us. What are you worrying about?" said another team leader.

"Haha, yes, we are fine in such a sturdy bunker. As long as that Zhao Yun doesn't come, we are safe."

Yes, they are only afraid of Zhao Yun bringing people with him, and they are not afraid of anything else.

"Boom boom boom..."

Suddenly, this place was bombarded by twelve 75 field guns. Although this place was strong, the power still caused some injuries to the Japanese soldiers in the bunker.

"Oh no, it's a field artillery. It looks like the Yan country army has used heavy weapons."

The two of them felt relieved just now, but the next moment they didn't know what to do.

You can't go out. It's still safe here. It's hard to say whether you can go out.

Yes, the army led by King Yan has arrived, and naturally brought with them the 75mm field guns, followed by a 105mm artillery battalion and a tank battalion.

This time they came with three divisions, and they were elite divisions. Their purpose was to end this place quickly, capture Hongkou, and also capture the Japanese Navy Headquarters.

Because according to intelligence, the Japanese support fleet has already set off, and they don't have much time left.

“Boom boom boom…”

Continuous shooting allowed their firepower to reach its maximum.

Half an hour later, three bunkers were finally blown up. But it was too early to be happy, as there were many bunkers here, perhaps dozens of them.

The Japanese knew that this day would come, so they had already managed this place very well and built very solid circular fortifications, so it was harmless to attack this place except by heavy artillery.

"Da da da........"

When the Japanese saw that they had lost three bunkers, they fought back even harder, firing bullets continuously.

This scene happened to be discovered by the observer at the artillery position.

"Attention, there are three bunkers firing bullets in the left front. Yes, right there. Concentrate your firepower and shoot them down for me."

At this moment, the artillery position quickly fired three rounds of artillery fire before suppressing the Japanese's shooting.

Only one person was killed in the explosion, but the bunker was intact.

"Keep bombing, we have enough shells." The artillery battalion commander at the artillery position said loudly.

As a result, this fortification was attacked for several hours until the gun barrel became so hot that it could not be cooled down and there was a risk of explosion. The attack was stopped only then.

After the artillery fire stopped, the ground forces also began to attack. After all, they had this advantage at the moment.

"Da da da........"

The Japs' firepower was still as strong as ever, and they started shooting again.

Each bunker had six firing holes, and six heavy machine guns fired continuously, causing considerable casualties to the advancing Yan army.

"Oh, damn it, let's use the 105 heavy artillery, otherwise the losses will be too great." The army commander said helplessly in the front-line command center.

"Yes, I'll give the order right away," said the chief of staff.

After all, this artillery battalion is very precious, so it is normal that they are reluctant to use it.

Soon, twelve 105mm guns opened fire.

Under concentrated firepower, the bunker fortifications that had been so arrogant just now were instantly breached.

"Haha, great job, artillery brothers. Only with your fierce firepower can we take down all the Japanese bunkers. Otherwise, how can we get in?"

A team leader shouted excitedly.

Yes, they had not yet entered Hongkou, but were fighting with the enemy on the periphery. Because Hongkou's circular fortifications were very powerful and the Japanese had made sufficient preparations, it was very troublesome for a while.

"Colonel, if we don't fight back, our fortifications will be breached," said a squadron leader.

In Hongkou District, a fierce quarrel was taking place at the Japanese forward command post.

They have artillery and can fight back, but once they are exposed, they will not be able to explain it to the outside world.

At the same time, they might also be discovered by the Yan State army and blown up by planes.

Yes, Yan Country still has the air force advantage here. They have bombed their Marine Corps headquarters and warships on the river before.

However, the artillery position was not found, so it was retained, while the Marine Corps headquarters was bombed.

Although everyone entered the bunker and there were no casualties, it was still a loss of face. The building was severely damaged and it was naturally impossible to work there anymore.

This made the Marine Corps commander here very angry.

Therefore, the telegram for help mentioned that the enemy's air force and the few naval forces must be destroyed.

The Japanese were very passive that day, but the casualties were not many. However, it was different for the Yan State.

The army was unable to take the city for a long time and suffered heavy losses, which greatly reduced the morale of the army.
