Chapter Seventy-Four: Maoshan Ridge, Artillery Bombardment!

The first shot fired against the Japanese army was in Maoshanling, Chengde County.

After learning that the Uzun State had gathered an army of 200,000 and intended to attack the three provinces of Mukden in Hua.

Xue Yue, who has rich combat experience and superb command art.

He set up a tight sentry net early in the place where the Japanese slave country might pass.

When the devil's troop carrier drove this way, there was already a secret post of the Feng army, and traces of the Japanese army were found.

After Zhang Zongqing got the news, he directly handed over the command of the entire battle to Xue Yue.

It's not that Zhang Zongqing is incapable of commanding this war, but that the Feng army can't be the only one who can command a war with 100,000 troops.

And whether it is Xue Yue, Yang Jie, or Jiang Baili, their strategic theories are still on paper.

So Zhang Zongqing must give them this opportunity to improve themselves.

For Zhang Zongqing, he sat firmly in the commander's headquarters and commanded the next battle.

It is better to lead a strong army and kill and wound the enemy on the front line.

Therefore, after learning of the movements of the Japanese army, Zhang Zongqing immediately led more than 1,000 brothers from the fourth battalion of the first regiment of the National Protector Army to the direction of Maoshan Ridge.

This direction is exactly the direction of the main force of the Eighth Division of the Japanese Slave State.

For Chengde County, its location can be said to be very important.

Because Maoshan Ridge is the flank of Chengde County.

Zhang Zongqing took this battalion with more than 1,500 elite soldiers.

Riding the transport vehicle, it is directly to Maoshan Ridge in Chengde County.

Over the years, he has insisted on building roads, which has made the roads in the three provinces of Fengtian widely distributed.

This is especially true in areas where the strategic location is extremely important.

It only took thirty or forty minutes for Zhang Zongqing to lead the 1,500 brothers of the 4th Battalion, and they had already arrived at their destination.

These 1,500 elite soldiers are all carrying Mauser Ka

98k rifle, Hua-ZM29 punching gun.

They carry hand-held, pistols, military spurs, etc., and it can be said that they are armed to the teeth.

It can be said that when it comes to individual weapons and equipment.

Not to mention the Japanese slave country, even if it is the world's first army D country, there is a big gap with this elite army.

And the quality of Huaguo's soldiers is the top in the world.

Therefore, it is not a problem to say that there are only more than 1,500 soldiers, and it is not a problem to use these forces to provoke the enemy into a mixed brigade.

In addition to a variety of individual equipment, this more than 1,500 soldiers of the first battalion.

It also carried 12 Chinese 25 infantry guns and two German-made heavy guns.

There are two heavy machine guns in almost every platoon, and one light machine gun in each squad, so it can be said that the fighters of the first battalion are completely armed to the point of teeth.

With such strong firepower support, it is no wonder that Zhang Zongqing believes that the combat effectiveness of the fourth battalion is no worse than that of a mixed brigade of the enemy.

It was the almost perverted firepower configuration of the fourth battalion that made Xue Yue and a group of staff officers agree that Zhang Zongqing would personally lead his troops to the battlefield.

"How's it going?" As soon as Zhang Zongqing and the guard Monk Wei got on the battlefield, they asked Fang Xianjue, the commander of the 389th Brigade who was guarding this area.

"Second son, there are three positions in Maoshan Ridge, which are distributed in the east and southeast of Maoshan."

"This time the devil's march route is very orderly, and the soldiers are divided into multiple routes, and at first glance it is the most elite army in the Japanese slave country."

"When we were defending our position, the pressure was too great, if it wasn't for the second son coming in person, the situation would be too dangerous!"

Even Fang Xianjue, a famous anti-Japanese general, who was born in the second phase of the Fengtian Military Academy and is now the commander of the 389th Brigade, still feels that the pressure is too great.

After all, the 389th Brigade is only more than 4,500 people.

The number of the unknown Japanese army on the opposite side should be several times that of the 389th Brigade.

In fact, Fang Xianjue did not guess wrong.

The Uzunu army that came to this route was the famous Kameda Division.

As an elite Category A division, this division has more than 30,000 troops.

Facing the advanced equipment and well-trained Sixth Division.

The 389th Brigade, which had only more than 4,500 people, was able to carry Zhang Zongqing and his troops to help.

It's already a rarity!

……

"Boom!"

The sound of artillery was continuous.

The Kameda Division was also ruthless in the face of the difficult bone of the Maoshan Ridge.

This time, they used an artillery wing to deter artillery fire.

Obviously, the little devils don't know who they are facing and what powerful weapons they have.

Although the artillery wing of the Kameda Division had a full forty-eight guns of various calibers.

But the 4th battalion carried fourteen guns, as well as the 389th brigade's own eighteen guns.

Although in terms of quantity, there is still a certain gap.

But this was enough for the artillery of the Feng army, together with the artillery wing of the Kameda division, to carry out a certain degree of shelling.

"Boom!"

"Boom!!"

The original Type 92 infantry artillery and the large-caliber heavy artillery of country D coordinated with each other, and the whistling shells were aimed at the arrogant artillery positions of the Japanese slave country, which was to bombard the past.

Thirty-two cannons fired in unison, and the army of the Japanese slave country was extremely stunned at once.

In particular, the two German-made large-caliber heavy guns carried by the fourth battalion lifted the artillery positions of the Japanese slave state.

On the spot, there was a heavy artillery of the Japanese slave country, which was blown to pieces by the flying **!

The other 30 original Type 92 infantry guns were stunned by the soldiers of the Japanese slave country who charged towards Maoshan Ridge.

That's not how the script is written!

How could the Chinese have such fierce and formidable artillery?

When did they have the ability to engage in artillery battles with their own troops?

Lieutenant General Kameda Harano, the division commander of Kameda Division, was stunned for a while.

The intelligence department does not say that the formation of the Chinese army is very backward, and there is no big artillery team at all!

So what is it?

Where did this artillery come from, which ruthlessly harvested the lives of the soldiers of the Japanese slave country?

Go to TM's Army Intelligence!

This bunch of rice buckets!

Which part of the Chinese army fortified in Chengde County is there and how many men and horses are there?

How can the number of artillery in this army be so large?

Lieutenant General Kameda Harano couldn't figure it out at all, but the rumbling sound of artillery seemed to tell Kameda Harano over and over again.

The strength of the Chinese people is far from being as weak as he and his colleagues imagined!

"Pass my orders, pay attention to concealment!"

"Build fortifications and hide from the artillery attacks of the Chinese country!!"

Kameda Plain, who came back to his senses, immediately gave an order.

During the artillery attack of the Chinese, the artillery positions of the 8th Division were destroyed.

The soldiers who charged were directly harvested by the Type 92 infantry guns.

Kameda Harano was not a fool, and he naturally knew how to launch a strong attack on Moyama Ridge.

There will inevitably be heavy losses.

So almost immediately, he gave the order directly.
