The artillery units directly under the division of the 52nd Army aimed at the attacking crowd of devils and carried out artillery bombardment.

Even if the German armament unit of the 52nd Army is considered an elite unit in the national army, the number of artillery equipped in the only German armament division is very limited.

There are 6 75-mm mountain guns, and only 5 105-mm howitzers, and there is not much ammunition in terms of shells.

The 52nd Army had such a small foundation that it was impossible for all artillery to attack.

"Tom, tom, tom!!"

Artillery shelling rang out from the rear positions of the defenders, and several artillery pieces attacked the attacking Japanese troops.

Six 75-mm mountain guns fired a salvo, and the shells whistled from the air and smashed into the crowd of devils.

The devil is stronger than the national army in terms of the number of artillery and the range of artillery.

The effective firing range of the 75-mm mountain artillery is less than 5,000 meters, but although the devil's 75-mm mountain artillery is of the same caliber as the artillery of the national army, the maximum firing range can reach about 7,000 meters.

The devil soldiers attacked halfway through, and suddenly, rows of shells fell from the sky.

The killing range of the 75 mm mountain artillery can reach tens of meters, and it can be regarded as a killing weapon against the little devil infantry.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

The little devil was caught off guard, and the enemy on the ground was blown up by the shells with weapons.

The Japanese soldiers in the center of the explosion point were blown up on the spot, and their stumps and broken arms were splashed all around.

The little devil is also flesh and blood, and when he encounters artillery fire, he also suffers a large number of casualties.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of shells exploded near the devil infantry, killing and wounding more than 100 devil soldiers.

The ground is surrounded by the stumps and broken arms of the little devils, as well as a section of flesh and blood, and the scene is really miserable.

"Ahh......h

The little devils whose limbs were blown off by shells screamed incessantly, and their screams were heartbreaking.

"Yaga, damn the Chinese artillery!!"

"Medic, come and save us......"

The center of the shell exploded, and the little devils who blew up were dizzy, and the light and heavy machine gun positions established by the little devils were also destroyed.

It just so happened that the shell exploded on the shell box of the Devil Grenadier Group, causing a violent explosion.

"Boom, boom!!"

As soon as the ammunition box exploded, it suddenly produced a strong explosive effect, and the shock wave lifted dozens of little devils around them into the air, and their bodies were torn apart.

The rest of the little devils fell more than ten meters away, and countless shrapnel spread out, splashing dead and wounding a large number of little devil soldiers.

"Yaga!"

When the devil commander saw that the grenadier group's position had been destroyed, he cursed angrily, and then he hurriedly commanded his troops to avoid artillery fire.

"Beware of the artillery fire, beware of the artillery fire of the Chinese artillery!!"

"Disperse everyone, disperse and conceal !!"

The devil soldiers rescued their wounded comrades in twos and threes, and then the enemy slowed down the attack, and all the personnel took refuge outside the explosion point.

The attacking little devil soldiers lost fire cover and were temporarily suppressed.

The forward defenders were supported by artillery fire and were given a moment of respite, and in no time, the defenders began to attack the devil infantry in an all-out counterattack.

"Brothers, the little devils in front are the executioner division troops of the Japanese army, remember the blood debt committed by these little devils of the dog day!!"

"Brothers, hit hard, kill these little devils!!"

The commanders on the forward positions shouted, and the defenders shot the Japanese soldiers with hatred.

For a time, mortars, grenadiers, light and heavy machine guns on the forward positions hit the enemy with full fire.

"Tom, tom, tom!!"

"Da Da Da, Tu Tu !!"

The sound of shelling and machine guns resounded closely.

Bullets flew like a rain of bullets towards the little devil soldiers.

Even if the panicked little devil soldiers dispersed and hidden, due to the very dense firepower, the casualties of the devils were still not small.

The little devils who fled were shot and died one after another under the bullets and shells, and the bodies of the devils fell in twos and threes, and the blood of the devil soldiers was everywhere......

The fierce gunfire lasted for several minutes, and the casualties of the little devils attacking on the left and right flanks reached more than two hundred.

The number of casualties of 200 people is equivalent to reimbursement for a squadron, which can be regarded as heavy casualties for the little devils.

The number of little devils who attacked together was only about 600 people, and it can be said that the number of Japanese attackers had already suffered one-third of the casualties.

The defenders seemed to have a grudge against the Japanese army, they hated this little devil of the 6th Division, and every soldier was fighting desperately.

After the Japanese 6th Division committed heinous crimes in Nanjing, whenever the 6th Division was encountered on the battlefield, most of the generals of the Nationalist Army would order the troops to focus on taking care of the Kumamoto Division, even if the casualties were huge, and the executioner division would be severely damaged.

The casualty rate of this unit has always been higher than that of other divisions, and the number of casualties is not even comparable to that of the replenishment.

Among the Japanese troops, the Kumamoto Division was also known for its barbarism and bravery, and the attack suffered a few casualties, which did not affect the combat effectiveness of the devils at all.

Soon after, under the instructions of the commander, the enemy braved the rain of bullets and shells to quickly re-establish a defensive position.

The devil soldiers retreated a hundred meters, and the enemy all shrank behind cover......

At this time, the commander of the Japanese detachment, Nara Yamatomi, was observing the battle situation at the front.

Seeing that the front-line troops were beaten and retreated, he was immediately furious.

"Yaga, damn Shina artillery!"

At this time, a devil Nakazuo spoke: "General, the attack of the front-line troops has been frustrated, do you notify the heavy artillery troops to give artillery support!" ”

Nara Yamatomi thought for a while and took the advice of the devil Nakasa.

He shouted to the devil communication soldier next to him: "Call the heavy artillery unit immediately, and the fire covers the artillery position of China!" ”

"Hayi, General!"

The devil's communications soldier picked up the phone and immediately called the commander of the devil's heavy artillery position.

In less than ten minutes, the Japanese artillery unit gave artillery fire back to the mountain artillery position of the 52nd Army in the distance.

The Japanese artillery unit used the Type 91 105-mm field gun.

This kind of artillery of the Japanese army, the performance is quite good, mainly used for suppression, the firing range is long, the weight is light, and it is very popular with the Japanese infantry units.

The Type 91 105-mm field gun has a killing range of 120 meters, an effective firing range of 8300 meters, and a maximum firing range of almost 11 kilometers.

"Artillery attack, target, artillery position of the forward China Army!!"

"Tom, tom, tom!!"

"Tom, tom, tom!!"

The Japanese ammunition men continued to reload, and the devils shelled one after another.

Immediately, a wave of 105-mm shells flew towards the forward positions of the 52nd Army in the distance, as well as the mountain artillery positions of the 52nd Army.

From the artillery position of the Japanese army to the artillery position of the 52nd Army, the distance was about ten kilometers, and such a distance was beyond the effective range of the Japanese artillery......
