In the city of Kharkov, the two Ukrainian 75mm Krupp field artillery battalions located in the northern city were attacked by the Japanese 3rd Division, which the coalition forces rushed to the center before evening and deployed their positions.  The 24 Japanese four-year-old 15cm heavy howitzers of the 3rd Regiment of Du1i Field Heavy Artillery were completely wiped out by the counterattack.  Free eBook download

    At this time, the Ukrainian 1o5mm light field howitzer battalion deployed by the German-Ukrainian coalition in the middle city of Kharkiv moved to fire, but the counterattack artillery only hit the position of the du1i field heavy artillery regiment commanded by the commander of the regiment, Colonel Hashimoto Koji.  5oo meters, France threatens the Japanese army's heavy artillery position. Similarly, the range of the Japanese army's four-year-old 15cm heavy howitzer is similar to that of the opponent's 1o5mm light howitzer. The ranges of each other are also 5oo meters apart and they cannot reach each other.  superior.

    At this time, the artillery fire of the first Ukrainian 75mm field artillery battalion deployed by the German-Ukrainian coalition in the southern city of Kharkiv had plowed the outpost position of the 5th Infantry Brigade of Kikuchi on the right wing of the coalition into a sea of ??flames. The 5th Japanese Infantry  The Taguchi Infantry Squadron of the 16th Infantry Battalion of the 6th Regiment of the Brigade was completely destroyed by the enemy's artillery fire. The core positions of the two squadrons on the left and right flanks were completely destroyed, causing heavy casualties. The squadron leader "Taguchi" had no choice but to shrink all his troops.  Arriving at the core position of the squadron, they defended it.

    The 3rd Battalion of the Ukrainian Artillery, relying on its position outside the range of the Japanese heavy artillery, recklessly moved and extended artillery fire to cover the main position of the 5th Japanese Infantry Brigade. The intensive artillery fire stopped the 1st Infantry Team.  Captain Nishimura Hiroshi brings reinforcements to the outpost.

    At this time, the 1st Infantry Battalion of the 139th German Infantry Regiment, together with the divisional reconnaissance battalion of the 47th German Reserve Infantry Division that had previously attacked the outpost, launched a full-scale attack on the outpost position held by the Japanese Tanaka Squadron!  All six 6mm mortars in Taguchi's squadron's core position have been destroyed, and only two of the four Browning 7.62 heavy machine guns are left. The captains of the 2nd Infantry Squadron and the 3rd Infantry Squadron were killed one after another, and the captain of the 1st Squadron was killed.  Captain Kojima Kame was seriously injured, and squadron leader Taishi Taguchi, 6th Army Lieutenant, himself was slightly injured. Only 50 of his subordinates could still hold up their guns and fight on the position.

    At this time, the two sides were in a typical fight. The core position of the Japanese outpost had been surrounded by two German battalions, and the 5th Japanese Infantry Regiment 1 kilometer behind""The 6th Infantry Regiment of the Japanese Brigade  The team sent two squadron-sized reinforcements several times, but they were intercepted by the intensive artillery fire of the 1st Battalion of Ukrainian 75mm field artillery deployed in the southern city of Kharkiv. The reinforcements also suffered heavy casualties.

    At this time, if von Neuhaus, the frontline commander of the German-Ukrainian forces, was not so stubborn and insisted on taking over the outpost of the Japanese army, as long as the Ukrainian 1o5mm light field howitzer battalion deployed in the middle city of Kharkiv could move its target urgently,  If they attack the Japanese outpost in the northwest, Lieutenant Taguchi and his men will not have any luck except jade. The fortifications of the core Japanese outpost can withstand the bombardment of 6.5 kilograms of 75mm field artillery, but they may not be able to resist.  Withstand the attack of 15mm light howitzer.

    At this critical moment, German Major General von Neuhaus stubbornly wanted to capture the Japanese army's outpost core position instead of destroying the opponent's position with an indiscriminate bombardment.  After the Ukrainian 105mm light field howitzer battalion was unable to effectively threaten the opponent with the Japanese heavy artillery and itself because it was out of range, it gave up continuing the bombardment under the order of von Neuhaus. "Beiyang 1917 730  Chapter 5 (Don¡¯t blame me for not agreeing) The position of the 13th Federal Infantry Division on the way, turned to the northwest direction and continued the artillery bombardment on the main position of the Japanese 5th Infantry Brigade.

    For a time, the 6th Infantry Regiment of the Kikuchi Brigade in the northwest was facing tremendous pressure. Not only was it unable to connect with the Taguchi Squadron at the outpost, but its main position was also plowed back and forth by the opponent's artillery fire. It was unable to raise its head and guard the main position.  The casualties of Hiroshi Nishimura's 1st Infantry Team and Fukushima Tai's 1st Infantry Team began to increase. The only good thing was that the German infantry battalion that originally attacked the main Japanese position did not take advantage of the opportunity and attack again.  .

    The brigade commander Shinnosuke Kikuchi sent an emergency call requesting tactical guidance and hurriedly sent an attack to the headquarters of Hashimoto Koji's DU1I Field Heavy Artillery 3rd Regiment, Tanaka Kabuto's Field Artillery Regiment and the Voronei Ri's 13th Federal Infantry Division headquarters.  Even the Chinese Lu Huanyan Armored Regiment in the far east received a call for assistance from the 5th Infantry Brigade requesting artillery tactical guidance.

    For Major General Kikuchi, he does not need the support of ground troops at the moment. What he needs is the support of artillery. Otherwise, he will be suppressed by the opponent's 2 artillery battalions and 24 cannons "Beiyang 1917", and his troops will be overwhelmed on the main position.  If you can't lift it up, how to counterattack the possible attack by the German infantry that may follow? The Chinese Armored 2nd Battalion, commanded by Ren Dao, the regiment chief of staff of the Chinese du1i Armored Regiment 1, has arrived from the rear at the brigade headquarters and is ready to go into battle on both wings, while the infantry  The first team has been strengthened to the left and right wing positions respectively. The key is to suppress the enemy artillery fire in Kharkov City. Otherwise, even if the Chinese armored forces counterattack, it will be in vain and will be bombed by the enemy's guns!

    "Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, I suggest that the 6th Infantry Regiment abandon its current position.Fall back and let the Germans come over, so that you can get out of the opponent's artillery support range. The German troops in front of the position can only be strengthened by one reinforced regiment. As long as the opponent dares to come up, my 2nd Armored Battalion will circle around from both sides to intercept them.  The opponent's retreat route, and the heavy artillery of the 3rd Regiment of Du1i Field Heavy Artillery in the middle can be fired like this, and it is very possible to completely wipe out the invading enemy!  "

    The Chinese colonel's suggestion stunned the Japanese generals in the cover of the 5th Infantry Brigade. "Nani? Give up the position? Taguchi at the outpost is still fighting to the death. How can the main force of the 5th Infantry Brigade give up at the back?" Entertainment  "Where is the "show" position? Ren Sang, this idea of ??yours is absolutely unacceptable. We are the glorious Kikuchi Brigade and the ace unit of the 3rd Division. I will never agree to abandon the position!"

    52-year-old Major General Shinnosuke Kikuchi looked livid, and without hesitation rejected the suggestion of Ren Dao, the chief of staff of the Chinese Colonel Regiment. Ren Dao sighed in his heart when he heard this, thinking, are all Japanese generals so arrogant?  The only way to win is to lure the snakes out of their holes and attack them. How could they survive under the enemy's fire?  The Chief of Staff of the regiment thought to himself, since you don't listen to me, don't blame me for not agreeing when you ask me to brave the enemy's superior artillery fire to go up and die!
