Check in from the bright sword

"Captain, the Chinese army seems to be digging a tunnel!" Furuya said in a low voice.

"The Chinese Army wants to shorten the distance of the charge by means of soil work." After all, Yamazaki Zhihei is also a veteran of many battles, and he saw through the Eighth Route Army's intentions at once, and immediately sneered, "Order, the artillery squadron is aimed at the Chinese Army shelled the tunnels and killed their sappers!"

The orderly standing behind Yamazaki Jihei immediately waved the red flag.

Seeing the semaphore, the Japanese artillery in the artillery position quickly measured and fired at Zhuyuan, and after a test shot, six 6 light mortars fired at the same time.

In an instant, rows of shells fell on the ridgeline of the mountain ahead.

After ten rapid fires, the artillerymen stopped firing, and Yamazaki Zhihei raised the binoculars again.

The wind in the mountain was strong, and after only a dozen seconds, the smoke and dust raised by the explosion had dissipated.

Just when Yamazaki Zhihei thought that the engineering soldiers of the Eighth Route Army had been wiped out by the artillery, the Eighth Route Army positions that had been silent just now suddenly came to life, and handfuls of dust rose again.

Obviously, the shelling of the artillery squadron had little effect.

Gu Yameng explained without losing the opportunity: "Captain, the Chinese army has a high level of tactical literacy. When they dig tunnels, they don't dig in a straight line, but in a zigzag shape. In this way, even if shells fall into the tunnel, the killing effect will be great. Very limited! What's more, the chances of shells falling into the tunnel are not high."

"Baga." Yamazaki Jihei said unhappily, "You don't need to remind me of this."

"Hai." Furuya suddenly paused, and retreated to the side in desperation.

Looking at the dust that was still rising in front of him, Yamazaki Zhihei showed a fierce look in his eyes.

……

At the foot of Lijiapo Mountain, there is an open flat land.

The six 6-caliber mortars of the independent regiment artillery company have been lined up.

The six gunners, including Tiangua, are already in their positions, waiting for the company commander to provide parameters.

The artillery company commander Yu Chengzhu raised his right thumb, straightened his right arm, aimed at Li Jiapo in front, closed his left eye first and then closed his right eye, and then said in a low voice: "The distance is about 1000 meters! The shooting angle is 57 and a half degrees. !"

The six artillerymen including Sweet Potato hurriedly turned the knob of the mortar to adjust the shooting angle.

"Probably?" Zhao Gang was a little worried, and asked, "You won't hit your own people?"

"Old Zhao, don't worry." Li Yunlong was not worried at all, and said, "Zhuzi's cannon shooting is amazing, and it has never let me down."

While speaking, Yu Chengzhu checked the shooting angles of the six guns again.

At this time, the observation post on the top ridgeline of Lijiapo suddenly sent back a message: The devils counterattacked!

"I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Li Yunlong laughed grimly, and shouted, "Zhuzi, blow me up as hell!"

On the other hand, Yu Chengzhu looked calm, and shouted in a deep voice: "There are all of them. According to the calibration, ten rounds are fired rapidly, and fire!"

Following Yu Chengzhu's order, the six ammunitionists who had been preparing for a long time immediately took out a shell from the ammunition box and handed it to the six gunners including Digua.

Six gunners, including Tiangua, took over the five-kilogram shell, held the shell tightly with both hands, aimed the tail of the shell at the muzzle, and then let go, and the shell slid into it.

……

The top of Lijiapo, the Japanese army position.

Yamazaki Zhihei held his saber high and roared to the sky: "Assault, Toji Kaigai..."

At least one infantry squad of more than 50 devils immediately jumped out of the trench, holding a shining bayonet, yelling and charging towards the ridge line of the mountain ahead.

More than 50 devils rushed up like a tide.

A smug smile appeared on Yamazaki Jihei's face.

The old devil took it for granted that a small counterattack would be enough to stop the Eighth Route Army's soil work.

However, the smile on Yamazaki Zhihei's face quickly froze, because just when the infantry squad that was attacking had just rushed halfway, there was a squeaky scream in the air ahead.

"Nani?" Yamazaki Zhihei's eyes widened in surprise, "Bombardment?"

The next moment, rows of shells fell from the sky and exploded on the ground.

Yamazaki Zhihei was even more surprised to see that the artillery of the Eighth Route Army fired very accurately, and the landing point of the shells almost perfectly blocked the Japanese army's charge route.

Amidst the continuous explosions, clusters of flames bloomed like flowers.

However, the flaming flowers blooming from the shells are fatal, and in the blink of an eye, the attacking infantry squad was blown to pieces by this wave of shelling.

The shelling was not over yet, and dozens of machine guns appeared behind the ridgeline of the mountain ahead.

Dozens of dazzling tongues of flame are like flame whips in the hands of the god of death, lashing out.

The devil soldiers, who had already been bombarded to pieces, were hit hard again.

A team of more than 50 devils attacked, and most of them fell down in a blink of an eye.

The remaining dozen devils lost their courage and fled back in a panic.

Although Yamazaki Zhihei was so angry that he yelled, but there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't really shoot all the Japanese soldiers who had escaped, could he?

In this case, if you fight back, you will die.

It seems that we can only ask the aviation for support.

Immediately, Yamazaki Zhihei said to the signal soldier: "Quickly, I request the 1st Flying Regiment of the Air Force to dispatch attack planes and destroy the artillery cluster of the Chinese Army. Hurry up!"

The communications soldier quickly picked up the walkie-talkie and called loudly: "Call the 1st Flying Regiment, call the 1st Flying Regiment, the 36th Independent Infantry Battalion requests air fire support, repeat..."

Chapter 103 General Attack

The forward observation post of the 386th brigade.

Brigadier Chen stepped on the ladder and was holding up a telescope to watch the battle in Lijiapo.

At this time, although the sky had already dimmed, you could still see the shells falling on the top of Lijiapo and exploding. From a distance, it looked like fireworks were being set off, which was very spectacular.

Brigadier Chen was watching intently, when suddenly there were chaotic footsteps behind him.

Looking back, I saw Boss Peng walking in accompanied by Master Liu and Deputy Brigadier Han.

"Boss?" Brigadier Chen quickly jumped off the ladder and asked, "Why are you here?"

"I'll take a look at the independent regiment and see how they killed the son of a bitch Yamazaki brigade!" Boss Peng said again, "How is the situation now?"

"The Independence Regiment just had an artillery battle with the devils." Brigadier Chen said, "It disintegrated a counterattack by the devils."

"Artillery battle? The independent regiment actually has artillery?" Boss Peng was surprised, "When did he have artillery?"
