Chapter 453: Battle Curtain (3)

Li Hong heard the sound of shells and weakened, and he knew that the remaining shells of the artillery of the security regiment were not enough.

If there is not enough ammunition, the forward positions will definitely not be able to hold.

Li Hong thought quickly for a while, and suggested to Zhang Baohua next to him: "Brother Zhang, with all due respect, the devil is menacing, leaving the troops in the front line to resist is just letting the soldiers be fearless cannon fodder, I suggest that the troops be withdrawn now." ”

"Voluntarily abandoning the position?" Zhang Baohua frowned.

Li Hong put down the binoculars and explained to him: "Brother Zhang, it doesn't hurt to give up the forward position, I can let my heavy artillery unit move forward and shell the little devils who occupy the forward position." ”

"Brother Hong, this method is very good, very good!" Zhang Baohua nodded and said, "With the fire support of your heavy artillery troops, our front-line troops can reduce a lot of unnecessary casualties." ”

Immediately, Li Hong personally made a phone call to the artillery battalion commander Xiong Erdan.

A heavy artillery company of the security regiment deployed outside the city, according to Li Hong's order, moved its position forward two kilometers.

In addition to this, the artillery battalion delivered a large amount of ammunition, as well as 2000 gas masks.

At this time, the soldiers of the Security Regiment in the forward position, as well as the officers and soldiers of the 13th Division, continued to resist the little devils, and they bought time for the heavy artillery company of the Security Regiment to establish an artillery position.

"Da Da Da !!!"

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

The guns and shells were constantly being fired on the forward positions, and bullets and shells were flying everywhere.

The artillery and infantry of the security regiment did not save ammunition, they struck hard in the direction of the enemy's charge.

The artillery poured out all the remaining nearly 100 shells, and the rest of the soldiers kept firing, and tens of thousands of bullets rushed towards the attacking devil soldiers.

Dense shells covered the perimeter of the enemy's charge, killing and wounding hundreds of devil soldiers, and countless bloody limbs were scattered around.

The ghost soldiers who rushed to the front managed to dodge the damage of the shells, but the enemy was killed by bullets.

"Ahh......h

A large number of bullets came head-on, and more than 100 ghost soldiers bore the brunt of the bullets and fell to the ground, and the ghost soldiers behind them made dodge actions one after another, looking for cover everywhere.

Dense bullets swept past the devils, and from time to time the devil soldiers were shot and killed, and blood slurry was thrown out of the enemy's body.

The devil soldiers rushed to a distance of two or three hundred meters from the forward position, and encountered a fierce blow from the Chinese defenders, and the enemy would pay casualties if he tried to take a step forward.

"Baga, machine gun suppression, artillery fire suppression!!"

The devil soldier machine gunner lay on the ground, setting up a machine gun to strafe the dense fire point in front, and the devil artillery knelt on the ground and suppressed it with mortar attacks.

As soon as the little devils launched a counterattack, the infantry in front could not attack, otherwise, they would be mistakenly injured by the machine guns and mortars behind.

Although the little devils are outnumbered and have heavy firepower, the enemy does not have strong fortifications to hide.

As soon as the Devil Heavy and the Artilleryman open fire, the cannonballs and bullets on the opposite side will hit with precision.

The two sides fought fiercely for more than ten minutes, and then the Chinese defenders in the forward positions received orders to retreat.

"Brothers, withdraw !!"

Soon, the soldiers of the security regiment and the officers and men of the 13th Division quietly withdrew from the forward positions along the narrow trenches.

The position in front was surrounded by smoke screens, and the little devils did not know that the Chinese defenders had abandoned their positions, and the enemy was still desperately shooting and constantly shelling.

The enemy's guns and artillery hit indiscriminately for a while, and the devil commander on the front line was not stupid, and it didn't take long to find that the firepower of the defenders on the opposite side was weak.

"Imperial soldiers, charge forward!!"

The artillery and machine guns of the devils stopped, and the devil infantry got up from the ground, picked up their weapons and charged the forward positions of the Chinese defenders.

The devil soldiers in front were only a few hundred meters away from the forward position.

Within a few minutes, hundreds of devil soldiers successfully rushed to the position.

After seizing the position, a devil captain hurriedly ran to the devil Zhongzuo to report.

"Your Excellency, the soldiers on the battlefield have all run out."

"Yo Xi!"

The devil Zhongzuo carried the command knife and said with a smug smile: "The cowardly and cowardly soldiers of China must have been succumbed by our artillery fire, hahaha!" ”

"That's right, Your Excellency Captain, the soldiers must be scared."

The devil Nakasa didn't know the real purpose of the Chinese defenders' withdrawal, and the little devil thought that the Chinese soldiers were scared.

"Send a telegram to the wing commander immediately, no, send a telegram directly to the brigade commander, and report to the brigade headquarters that our second brigade has taken the forward position of the Chinese soldiers, and the first credit is ours!"

"Hayi!"

Captain Devil nodded emphatically, turned around and reported the results to the 33rd Brigade Headquarters.

The little devils who rushed to the forward position gathered more and more, and the devil soldiers did not rush to continue the attack.

The enemy adopted a steady offensive strategy, quickly and well established machine-gun field fortifications, as well as artillery positions.

The withdrawn Chinese soldiers entered the second line of defense on the front line.

The second line of defensive positions is five or six hundred meters away from the first line of positions at the forefront.

Once the little devils are allowed to gain a foothold and establish various firepower points, with the enemy's firepower superiority, they can completely cover and strike at the second line of positions of the Chinese defenders.

Li Hong moved the telescope, observing the position that had just been occupied in front of him.

A few kilometers away, the devil ammunition men ran back and forth under the trenches to carry ammunition, the machine gunners were busy wiping their guns, and the devil sappers with shovels were busy repairing defensive positions and building various fire fortifications.

After observing the situation of the devil troops, Li Hong showed a grim smile on his face.

At this time, the number of little devils on the battlefield was at least nearly two thousand.

After a while, Zhang Baohua slowly spoke: "Brother Hong, the smoke screen on the forward position is about to dissipate, while the enemy's foothold is not stable, it is a good time for artillery bombardment, and then it depends on your security regiment!" ”

At this time, the communication soldier ran to Li Hong to report.

"Report to the regimental seat, the heavy artillery company is ready for shelling, and the artillery can launch an artillery bombardment at any time!"

"Good!"

Li Hong nodded and ordered loudly: "Pass my order, immediately let the heavy artillery company carry out artillery bombardment, and blow up Lao Tzu fiercely!" ”

"Yes, Tuanza!"

The signal soldier shook the phone, connected the heavy artillery company of the security regiment, and gave the order for the shelling.

"Brother Zhang, let's wait to see a good show!"

Li Hong and Zhang Baohua raised their binoculars again and looked at the forward position......

In the east of Taierzhuang City, the field artillery position of the heavy artillery company of the security regiment.

A platoon of 105-mm field guns was distributed on the position at intervals of more than ten meters, and the soldiers of each artillery squad were ready to aim, and the barrels were aligned at the position ten kilometers away.

"Each artillery squad prepares, ten salvos, and the artillery !!"

The flag commander waved the command flag, and ten 105-mm guns opened fire at the same time, and the position shook one after another.
