Chapter 1358： Pig sudden attack (seeking monthly ticket)

"Damn it! Bastard! Where's our plane? Why don't they come? Do they really have to wait for us to be killed by German bombers before they come to collect our bodies?" Lieutenant General Iida Shojiro was furious.

Watching his own artillery and artillery being continuously destroyed by the bombers of the Luftwaffe, his heart felt as if he was bleeding. The artillery of the island country army is not strong in the first place. After such a large loss, I am afraid that these artillery will be useless in the next battle. In the end, they will have to use the lives of soldiers to pile up, so that they may be able to break through the German defense line. And that kind of tactic is also the tactic that Lieutenant General Shojiro Iida does not want to use.

"Your Excellency, Commander, the fighter planes of the Army Air Force need to take off from the Philippine Islands. Compared with the German fighter planes, they are slower." Major General Haruki Haruki said.

"Hmph! There is no need to explain to those idiots. If we lose to the Germans in the end, those idiots must bear the greatest responsibility!" Lieutenant General Iida Shojiro said bitterly.

When the fighter jets of the Army Air Force of the island country arrived late, the dive bombers and ground attack aircraft of the Luftwaffe had completed their mission and evacuated the airspace. Only those BF-109 fighter jets stayed and started an air battle with the fighter jets of the Japanese Army Air Corps. However, the battle was almost as one-sided as ever. The Type 1 fighters and Type 97 fighters of the Japanese Army Air Force are not at all the opponents of the BF-109 fighters of the Luftwaffe. The exchange ratio should be at least one to five.

Under the joint attack of the German Air Force and artillery, the artillery of the 15th Army of the Island Army was almost completely lost. There were more than two hundred cannons, and only a few dozen were left in the end. The rest of the artillery were all destroyed by the Germans. Without these artillery, in the face of the strong defensive positions of the German army, the island army may have to use human lives to fill them.

When the artillery of the island country army withdrew from the battlefield and hid, the artillery of the German army also stopped shelling. Although the German army does not lack artillery shells, it cannot be wasted casually! Those cannonballs can only be regarded as not wasted if they hit the heads of the islanders.

"Your Excellency, what should we do next?" Major General Haruki Sayama asked.

"What else can we do? Order the troops to attack! Your Excellency Commander Nakamura has issued an order to break through the German defense line as soon as possible. Without artillery, we can only fight with our lives!" Lieutenant General Iida Shojiro said somewhat Said helplessly. He didn't like to use such tactics, but when he was forced to do nothing, he could only ignore the lives of the soldiers. This is the normal psychology of the generals of the Japanese army.

Major General Sayama Haruki nodded. If the artillery was still there, it might be possible to use violent shelling to destroy the German defense line. In this way, when attacking, you can pay less loss. However, when the artillery was completely lost, they could only use their lives to pile up. Through the attack regardless of casualties, break through the German defense line.

"Kitano-kun, the 4th Division is the Empire's standing division. Then, the first round of attack will start with the 4th Division! I hope you can break through the German defense line in one go!" Lieutenant General Shojiro Iida ordered .

"Hi, Your Excellency, Commander!" Lieutenant General Kenzo Kitano, head of the 4th Division, replied.

The 4th Division is one of the standing divisions of the Japanese Army. It is a powerful division with four main infantry wings. Because most of the officers and soldiers of the 4th Division come from the Osaka area. Therefore, there are rumors that the officers and soldiers of the 4th Division are the sons of merchants, and their combat effectiveness is vulnerable. But in fact, the combat effectiveness of the 4th Division should not be underestimated. Even if it is not as good as the 2nd and 6th Divisions, it is still a powerful division.

After receiving the order from Lieutenant General Shojiro Iida, Lieutenant General Kenzo Kitano gave the order to attack. The 8th Infantry Regiment, the 37th Regiment, the 61st Regiment and the 70th Regiment of the 2nd Division entered the attacking positions in turn.

"The warriors of the empire, for the victory of the empire, charge!"

When the commander gave the order to attack, more than 10,000 officers and soldiers of the island country army marched with bowed legs and launched an attack on the German position. They shouted slogans loudly, as if they didn't know that their artillery suffered a devastating blow just now.

"What a heroic unit! If our artillery is not destroyed, after sufficient artillery preparations, it is enough to easily break through the German defense line!" Lieutenant General Iida Shojiro watched the attack of the infantry of the 4th Division, A look of regret. He knew that these attacking troops would definitely be smashed in front of the solid German defense line.

"Yes, Commander! The warriors of the empire are the most fearless. If we have the same sophisticated weapons as the Germans, the final victory will be the imperial army. We can easily defeat the Germans!" Shan Shan Major General Haruki said.

In the opinion of many island country army generals, the main reason why the German army can become the world's number one is undoubtedly that the German army's equipment is the strongest in the world. If this factor is deducted, the island army can easily defeat them. After all, the Japanese army is definitely the most fearless army in war. With such a tenacious will to fight, few countries' armies can confront them.

It's just that this is just their guess, or it's just an excuse for their failure. In this world, there is no real fairness. Germany's technology is advanced, can't the soldiers of the German army be equipped with the same weapons as the island army? That would be unfair to them.

The scene of more than 10,000 people launching an attack is undoubtedly spectacular, especially after the island army launched the "pig sudden attack". The so-called pig sudden attack is to charge forward bravely like a wild boar. The Japanese army has always emphasized offense, and mechanically believes that offense is the only means. Its "Combat Essentials Order" requires all troops to completely "believe" the will to attack, and even if there is a huge difference, they must decisively launch a charge. By the outbreak of World War II, this theory reached its peak.

Material scarcity is the congenital deficiency of the island country. The experience gained by the island country army from the island-Russia war is: a brave spirit and skillful fighting can completely defeat a strong enemy. They believe that the one-sided emphasis on spiritual education for the troops, high-intensity training, the spirit of dying for the country and brave and fearless attacks are enough to make up for the lack of equipment and materials.

But in fact, this is undoubtedly very ridiculous.
