Artillery squadron leader Edio Okabe was not shocked by Noda's alarmism, but said contemptuously: "What's so terrible about this little trick? Now I will order the artillery to destroy the enemy attacking from the right flank with the heaviest artillery fire. ”

"Okabe-kun, your artillery fire has a maximum and minimum angle limit, and now the Chinese troops attacking my Yaowangtai position have already sneaked up to less than 100 meters to the front of the position, can your artillery fire play a role?"

"Even if you can't use powerful artillery fire to eliminate the enemy attacking on the right flank, you can completely eliminate the Thundercloud Peak Cheetah Commando who took a feint attack at the foot of the mountain."

"I hope so." Noda pointed to the bottom of the mountain and suddenly looked back at Okabe Zhio and said with contempt: "Okabe-kun, the cheetah commando team of Lei Yun Peak has completed the task of feint to attract my firepower, and successfully covered the right wing of the Chinese army to attack Yaowangtai, and at this time, the cunning Lei Yun Feng has already led the cheetah commando team to escape. ”

In order to hold the Yaowangtai position and not be broken through by the 1st Battalion of the 102nd Regiment, Squadron Leader Noda ordered to concentrate superior forces and wipe out the attacking 1st Battalion on the slope of the mountain.

Wang Jinglun, deputy commander of the 102nd Regiment, led the 1st Battalion to quickly rush to Yaowangtai under the cover of the Cheetah Commando of Leiyun Peak.

In order to avoid launching an attack on Yaowangtai and not alarming the enemy, Deputy Regiment Commander Wang ordered three companies to launch the most covert sneak attack on Yaowangtai from three directions.

He also repeatedly instructed him to try his best to move towards Yaowangtai in a covert way, so as not to attract the attention of the Japanese army, and to launch a surprise attack when approaching the front line of Yaowangtai.

Noda, the leader of the Japanese squadron that occupied Yaowangtai, was indeed an excellent commander, although he led Noda's squadron to finally break through the Yaowangtai position of our army and climb to the top of the position.

However, he was appointed as the supreme commander of Yaowangtai, commanding the infantry Noda squadron and the artillery squadron to hold the position, not daring to be careless, and cunningly set up several secret lookout posts halfway up the Yaowangtai Mountain.

The 1st Battalion of the 102nd Regiment quickly rushed to the foot of Yaowangtai Mountain, and was discovered by the secret lookout post.

The nine devils who served as three lookout posts halfway up the mountain found that the 1st Battalion of the 102nd Regiment had just rushed to the bottom of the mountain and launched an attack, not only without receiving orders, but also using the mountain as a cover to carry out a fire counterattack against the attacking 1st Battalion.

Deputy Regiment Commander Wang Jinglun did not expect that the cunning Japanese army would secretly set up three guard posts on the mountainside, and at this time he found that they launched a fire blockade, and not only ordered the first company commander: "Company Commander Geng led the first company to eliminate the three firepower points of the Japanese army, the second company feints, and the third company moves from both flanks, and Yaowangtai must be recaptured under the first attack." ”

Company Commander Geng immediately ordered each of the three platoons to lock on to a secret guard post of the Japanese army and eliminate it with the most ferocious speed.

As the enemy who feinted to attack Yaowangtai, the soldiers of the second company took advantage of the cover of the mountains and rocks with their guns, like a group of fierce tigers in the mountains to pounce on the Japanese army's hilltop position.

The 3rd Company was divided into two routes, and under the cover of the fire of the Japanese position in Yaowangtai with the feint attack of the 2nd Company, it quickly moved closer to the Japanese position from the 2nd Company and the two flanks, intending to storm Shangyaowangtai in one go under the cover of the 2nd Company's containment of the enemy's firepower.

Squadron Leader Noda did not panic in the face of the attack launched by a battalion of troops that suddenly appeared from the right flank of the Yaowangtai position, but calmly ordered the devils who were holding the position to concentrate the most ferocious firepower and eliminate the second company that was attacking from the front.

He said to the artillery squadron leader Okabe Esubo: "Okabe-kun, at this time, your artillery squadron has lost the role of destroying the enemy attacking Yaowangtai, do you ask your artillery to bring weapons to strengthen the defense of Yaowangtai's position?" ”

"Noda-kun, the soldiers of my artillery squadron are the best warriors of the Imperial Japanese Army, how can they abandon the artillery position and take a simple gun to rush to the front line? You know, every artilleryman is worth more than your infantry, you know? ”

"Hmph, if the Yaowangtai position is lost, will your noble artillery warriors still be alive? In order to hold the position of Yaowangtai, please ...... Okabe-kun. ”

"Hahaha, Noda-kun, don't say anything about yours, my artillery warriors will never be able to rush to the front line with rifles, in order to hold the position of Yaowangtai, I will immediately return to the artillery position and order the artillery to destroy the attacking Shina pig with the most intense artillery fire."

The arrogant Squadron Leader Okabe Esubo didn't take Squadron Noda of the infantry squadron in his eyes at all, although Kamimine ordered Noda to be the supreme commander of the Yaowangtai garrison, in Okabe Zhio's opinion, this was the 77th Wing Sekiyama Hinaka Daisa, which obviously excluded him, the artillery squadron temporarily assigned to the 77th Wing's control.

He returned to the artillery position and ordered the artillery to open fire on the 1st Battalion of the 102nd Regiment, which was attacking Yaowangtai at this time, and the attacking 1st Battalion must be wiped out with heavy artillery fire.

The deputy squadron leader of the artillery squadron said cautiously: "Okabe-kun, although the position at the head of Yaowangtai Mountain is not too high, it is still relatively steep, my artillery position is deployed on the mountain, if the artillery bombardment is locked on the target from a long distance, it should be very effective, and it is ...... now." ”

"Why not now? Will you disobey my commands? ”

"Don't dare, I'm just reminding Okabe-kun that our artillery position is condescending, facing a steep hill and the distance is very close, and trying to eliminate the attacking Chinese troops with fierce artillery fire is undoubtedly anti-aircraft artillery to fight mosquitoes, and it will not work at all."

"Bastard, immediately carry out the order, order all artillery fire to open fire on the attacking China troops now, I will wipe out all this China troops in the middle of the mountain, and cooperate with the Noda squadron to hold Yaowangtai."

Although the deputy commander of the artillery squadron despised this infantry major who had just been transferred to the artillery squadron as the squadron leader, he did not dare to disobey the order, turned around and ran back to the artillery position, adjusting the muzzle of the artillery as much as possible to land the shells fired by the attacking battalion.

The Okabe Edao artillery squadron is equipped with a Type 97 90mm light mortar, which is more efficient than the mountain artillery and field artillery of the wing because of its light weight and easy to carry.

If the artillery squadron equipped with the 77th Wing was a squadron with artillery, due to the large size and bulkiness of the artillery, it would be impossible to move up the steep mountain road to Yaowangtai.

The Japanese artillery received the order to attack the 1st Battalion halfway up the mountain, but because it was too close and it was close to the half-slope of Yaowangtai, it was impossible to lock on to the target at all, and the anxious artillery was like ants on a hot pot at a loss.

In order to meet the orders of Edao Okabe, the deputy squadron leader of the artillery ordered the artillery to open fire immediately, regardless of whether the shells fired could hit the target.

At this time, the first battalion suffered heavy casualties under the enemy's powerful firepower, but they had a kind of pride in resisting Japan and killing devils, stepping on the blood and corpses of the fallen soldiers around them, and resolutely launched a more ferocious attack on Yaowangtai.

Suddenly, more than a dozen shells flew out from Yaowangtai, roaring overhead and exploding under the hillside behind him.

Wang Jinglun, deputy commander of the 102nd Regiment, saw that the soldiers were a little nervous when they heard the sound of artillery, and not only shouted: "Brothers, don't be nervous, the shells fired by the Japanese artillery stationed in Yaowangtai are impossible to explode in our offensive formation because the terrain is unfavorable to them. ”
