Chapter 33
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Various shells poured into the Japanese troops like a storm.
In just a moment.
Various explosions were heard from the entire hillside, forming various deep pits of different sizes.
Artillery roared.
Gravel flew.
In just a few seconds.
The entire team actually suffered nearly fifty casualties!
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"
The Japanese officer shouted loudly.
All the Japanese present were also greatly shocked.
No one expected that there would be an enemy ambush here, and the offensive was still so fierce.
But compared with the panic of the puppet army when they were ambushed before, these Japanese were obviously much calmer.
Lie down.
Hide.
Find various shelters.
Everyone's movements were swift and efficient, without any drag.
At the same time.
Those special arms such as machine gunners or artillerymen also immediately began to set up their own positions, unloading artillery and transporting shells. The speed of action was really amazing!
"Well-trained indeed!"
Lu Zhixian, who was lying in the distance, couldn't help but sigh slightly when he saw this.
The reason why he chose to take action at this time.
In addition to the rewards of the system options, there is also the intention to train his own troops.
Although the Anti-Japanese Camp has experienced several battles since its establishment, even including the sneak attack on the puppet army infantry camp, in general, it has not fought a fierce battle, nor has it confronted the elite of the devils head-on.
Seeing that the big sweep is imminent.
Only after experiencing the tempering of blood and fire can one become a battle-hardened army.
So he had to ambush this time.
Seeing that the Japanese were still trying to dodge his attack, he couldn't help but sneer, and then shouted loudly: "Hit! Hit me hard!"
Da da da.
Da da da.
The machine guns fired wildly.
The soldiers lying in the bunkers on both sides fired quickly, and countless bullets hit the Japanese troops like a storm.
"Lie down! Lie down!"
"Find a bunker quickly!"
"Pay attention to hiding! Pay attention to hiding!"
"..."
The Japanese on the hillside shouted angrily.
But even though they were fast enough and their reactions were extremely sensitive, this side was just a flat road after all, and there was no bunker at all. In addition, the anti-Japanese camp was high above, and dozens of light and heavy machine guns fired wildly. How many of them could hide?
It was only half a minute.
Nearly thirty or forty Japanese fell again in the entire team.
The casualties were unprecedented!
"Baga!"
Miyamoto Masao in the distance was extremely angry.
He never thought that he would encounter such a fierce ambush here today. The enemy's firepower was far beyond his imagination.
There was no time to think.
As a battle-hardened commander, Miyamoto Masao immediately issued an order: "Artillery Squadron! Blast the artillery position over there immediately!"
"Ha Yi!"
Someone soon took the order.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The four mortars are light and disassembled equipment, which are easy to assemble and can be fired anytime and anywhere.
So it was only less than half a minute.
The Japanese artillery had quickly assembled.
Bang.
Bang.
As two shells headed for the artillery position first, two explosions were heard from the front and back.
But the landing point was a little off.
It was nearly forty or fifty meters away from the position.
"You dare to fight back?!"
Yang Zhihua on the hilltop was furious and roared: "Brothers! The devil dared to attack us with these two broken cannons. Now blow up those cannons first!"
"Blast him!"
"Blast him!"
"..."
Many soldiers of the artillery company shouted.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
More than ten shells were fired from three positions towards the devil's artillery zone.
Compared with the hasty response of the devil's artillery, the artillery company did not need to make any extra moves. It only adjusted the angle slightly and launched a new round of fierce attacks.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The deafening explosion sounded again.
The formation that the Japanese had finally stabilized was blown to pieces again, and the entire road was littered with Japanese corpses and rubble.
Even the two mortars that had just been set up were blown up one after another.
"Baga!"
Miyamoto Masao's face was shocked and angry.
Staff Officer Kawada quickly came to his side and shouted in surprise: "Major! The enemy has occupied three high grounds and set up corresponding artillery positions. In addition to more than ten mortars, there are also two of our Type 924 infantry guns. The firepower is really unimaginable! We have to retreat quickly!"
"Retreat!"Miyamoto shouted angrily.
Staff Officer Kawata shouted loudly: "Everyone retreat! The first and second squadrons will serve as cover, and the artillery squadron will provide fire support!"
Huh!
The Japanese soldiers from all over the country who received the order quickly took action.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
The two newly assembled mortars were also put into battle again.
At the same time.
The two squadrons of Japanese soldiers had to rely on limited tricycles or trucks to fight back, but the effect was obviously not as obvious as that of the anti-Japanese battalion.
"Want to retreat? Dream on!"
Seeing this, Lu Zhixian couldn't help but sneer and joked: "Today we have such an opportunity to set up a pocket formation, how could I let you run away?!"
Bang!
Bang!
Suddenly.
Several miles away from the direction where the Japanese soldiers came from, bursts of artillery roared.
The intensity was not much less.
"Report to the major!"
Soon a signalman came running over in a hurry, shouting: "The enemy is blocking our way out, and the enemy's firepower is extremely fierce. We can't break through for the time being!"
"Baga!"
Miyamoto Masao shouted angrily. He didn't have time to think about it, and shouted again: "Send the third infantry squadron to help break through, and the rest of the people will launch a counterattack on the spot, and retreat after opening a gap!"
"Ha Yi!"
Everyone took the order again.
Soon the Japanese did not continue to retreat, but quickly launched a counterattack.
"This reaction is fast enough!"
Lei Zhan frowned when he saw this.
It is impossible for the Japanese brigade to march with such a large force, and it is bound to form a long snake state. If they retreat rashly and frantically, it will easily lead to the team becoming more bloated, and then they will definitely suffer heavy casualties under the heavy firepower of the opponent. Therefore, at this time, holding the position against the fierce attack of the Anti-Japanese Battalion can dilute the density of troops, which is the most correct choice.
But Lu Zhixian didn't care. He laughed sarcastically, "This Japanese commander is indeed experienced. This method is the most effective against ordinary troops. But unfortunately, they are facing my anti-Japanese battalion!"
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Just at this moment.
Suddenly, more than ten artillery fires came from a distance again.
The powerful artillery attacked swiftly, showing a thunderous roar at this moment.
In just this moment.
Another twenty or thirty Japanese were bombed to pieces.
"Counterattack! Counterattack!"
Masao Miyamoto roared in the distance.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The two mortars and Type 92 infantry guns that the Japanese had just assembled were also put into battle one after another.
There was a rare scene of artillery bombardment in the sky.
However, the number of the Japanese artillery was at an absolute disadvantage. They were in a hurry to fight and had no cover. The terrain was not as advantageous as the artillery company occupying the hilltop. How could they not be defeated?
It was only less than three minutes.
The few artillery pieces that were finally assembled were immediately completely scrapped under the dense offensive.
"Baga!"
Miyamoto Masao's face was extremely ugly.
Their artillery squadron could not last more than a few minutes in the bombardment.
How could this be possible?
Kawada next to him also had a pale face. He gritted his teeth and muttered: "Major! This time we are definitely not facing the Eighth Route Army. This, this firepower is enough to surpass the artillery battalion!"
"Well done!"
Everyone on the hilltop in the distance was surprised.
Although they all knew that the combat power of their artillery company was absolutely amazing, they did not expect that they would completely suppress the Japanese firepower in just a few minutes.
How could Lu Zhixian miss such a good opportunity?
Without any hesitation, he quickly issued an order: "Pass my order now, the artillery company continues to provide fire support, and the first and second companies will surround and compress from both sides. We must completely annihilate this group of devils in the shortest possible time!"
"Yes, battalion commander!"
Everyone immediately obeyed the order.
