Chapter 875: Crushing the Devil's 9th Division (3)

With the artillery fire of the devils counterattacking, in a while, dozens of shells fell near the forward position of the security regiment.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

Shells fell to the ground one after another, making bursts of explosions.

The explosions flickered one after another, and the obstacles at the front of the position, as well as the fortifications, were torn apart by the artillery fire of the devils.

The little devil artillery did not know the exact location of the artillery positions of the security regiment, and the enemy only carried out rough artillery coverage.

The devil's artillery continued to shell, the ammunition men kept reloading, and the shells rained down one after another.

The devil's artillery fire was still very fierce, and in just a few minutes, the artillery fire covered a kilometer of the forward position.

If it were to be replaced by other troops, it would not be able to withstand such a fierce artillery bombardment by the little devils, and it would be impossible for them to counterattack under such an artillery offensive.

The strength of the security regiment is limited, and the forward position is the first target of the little devil's artillery fire, so Li Hong did not deploy many troops at the front.

On the forward position, there is only one guard company of the security regiment, and there is also the rocket artillery unit of the security regiment.

A communication trench several meters wide was constructed at the forward position, which could lead all the way to the defensive position behind.

Enemy artillery fire came on, and the guard company entered the various fortifications.

Shells fell on the position, the ground shook and the sand and dirt flew everywhere, and clusters of burning flames scattered around the position.

The soldiers of the guard company huddled in the fortifications and let the shells fall.

The devils used mountain artillery and field artillery, although this kind of artillery is very powerful, but the artillery coverage area is not dense enough, and it cannot cause much damage to the scattered soldiers of the security regiment.

When the devil's artillery fire covered it, the rocket artillery unit of the security regiment quickly withdrew.

The artillery carriage of the rocket artillery was supported by wheels, which could move freely under the communication trench, and the artillerymen pushed the rocket artillery in groups of three or five and moved to other positions to re-establish the artillery position.

The artillery cover of the little devils was only aimed at suppression, and the enemy commander wanted to cover the retreating troops through artillery fire.

The captain of the devil wing in the distance looked at the security regiment in front of him and the artillery fire was suppressed, and his originally angry face was a little more confident.

In the opinion of the captain of the Devil Wing, Fujii Sueyoshi, the firepower of the security regiment is nothing more than that.

"Opposite us is the security corps of the Chinese soldiers?" Fujii Suekichi asked the devil reconnaissance intelligence officer next to him.

"That's right, Your Excellency Wing Commander, the enemy opposite us is the security regiment, and it is impossible for other Chinese troops to have such strong fire support besides the security regiment."

"The security regiment is not as strong as expected, and the commander on the opposite side is really stupid to place the artillery position at the forefront......"

Fujii Sueyoshi said contemptuously to the devil officers around him, and his tone was very disdainful.

The devil has such blind confidence and contempt, the main thing is that the enemy has won too many battles and has not taken any squadron in his eyes at all.

With the combat effectiveness of the 35th Wing of the Devil, Fujii Sueyoshi dared to fight with the Chinese army, and even defeated the opponent.

After observing the artillery fire in front for a while, Fujii Sueyoshi ordered the signal soldiers: "Immediately notify the heavy artillery troops, the artillery fire extends two kilometers forward, and I will blow up the forward position of the security regiment." ”

"Inform the tank troops again, prepare to attack the forward position!"

"Ha Yi !!"

Several devil messengers nodded, and immediately went to convey the order of the wing leader.

After a while, the devil artillery unit that received the order adjusted the direction of the shelling.

"Tom, tom, tom!!"

"Tom, tom, tom......"

Dense enemy artillery fire began to extend to the forward positions of the security regiment.

The devil's 105-millimeter caliber artillery can reach a range of more than seven or eight kilometers, and the enemy's artillery fire is like a plough, constantly carpeting and covering the forward positions of the security regiment.

Under the cover of artillery fire, the combat unit of the devil regrouped a large group of infantry, as well as more than twenty light and heavy combat vehicles.

"The infantry charges forward, and the ducks and chickens give !!"

"Chariot advances, chariots propels !!"

The devil commander shouted an order to the devil soldiers beside him.

The attacking devil troops quickly rushed in the direction of the position of the security regiment.

The position outside the city is relatively open, which is very suitable for the chariot troops of the little devils to advance.

The attack of the devils was very skillful, and the enemy's attack was very fast, many chariots formed a chariot phalanx formation, and the devil infantry followed closely behind the chariot group.

The Devil's chariot group is spread out, which can withstand most of the shells and bullet damage for the Devil's infantry behind.

"Imperial soldiers, advance !!"

"Occupy the position in front !!"

The devil soldiers shouted excitedly, and the enemy accelerated the speed of the charge. ,

The commander of the devil's wing, Fujii Suekishi, did not know that the security regiment had transferred the artillery positions, and the distance was far away, and the enemy could not see the situation in the forward positions clearly.

The devils took advantage of the large amount of artillery ammunition and continued to carry out artillery bombardment, trying to crush the security regiment with artillery fire.

Crushing the opponent's position with artillery fire, this is the effective means of the little devils.

Of course, the little devils of the 9th Division exchanged fire with the security regiment for the first time, and they didn't know how many secret weapons the security regiment had.

Ten minutes later, the rocket artillery unit of the security regiment re-established the artillery position.

At the same time, the armored battalion of the security regiment led by Li Hong had already detoured from the woods to the flank of the enemy's attacking force.

The chariot group of the armored unit of the security regiment drove in the forest for half an hour, less than two kilometers away from the devil troops outside the city.

It is impossible for the devils to detect that the woods are hiding an armored force in the night, and the dense cannon sound echoes all around, and it is difficult for the enemy to hear the roar of chariots and machinery coming from the forest.

"Tank units continue to advance !!"

Li Hong shouted at the chariot troops behind him, and they drove forward for a few hundred meters.

Subsequently, Li Hong ordered the chariot troops to stop.

A few hundred meters further on is the end of the woods, and if the chariots rush out of the woods, they will be easily spotted by the enemy.

Therefore, Li Hong waited for the artillery to provide fire support, and then attacked the attacking troops of the devils.

The rocket artillery of the security regiment was scattered and hidden in several corners of the forward position, and the artillerymen aimed in the direction of the artillery position of the devil.

The artillery position of the devil has been exposed, and the artillery of the security regiment, which seized the opportunity, immediately launched a fierce artillery response to the artillery position of the devil.

The distance between the artillery positions of the devils is seven or eight kilometers, and the range of the 75-mm rocket artillery of the security regiment is far from enough, but with the range of the 105-mm caliber rocket artillery, the artillery fire can cover the artillery positions of the devils.
