Li Hong has taught the devil fleet how powerful it is, the devil warship is not only strong, but also the anti-aircraft fire is very fierce, relying on the fighters of the flying group alone, I am afraid that it is not so easy to blow up and sink the devil's warship.

"Erdan!"

"Here!"

Xiong Erdan, commander of the second artillery battalion, stood up in response.

"Your artillery battalion will set off immediately, and the artillery position will be established in the village of Jiangkou!"

Eguchi Village is southeast of the Nanshan position, about seven or eight kilometers away.

"Understood, Tuanza!"

After Li Hong gave his subordinates the battle order, the signal soldier brought several telegrams.

These telegrams were sent by reinforcements from the security regiment, and the battalions reported to Li Hong the march of the troops.

For the troops from both routes, everything went well, and none of the divisions encountered the troops of the devils.

After reading the telegram in his hand, Li Hong took the special combat team out of the headquarters.

The companies and platoons of the security regiment took up their weapons as quickly as they could, and then the soldiers boarded their cars and maneuvered in the direction of the Nanshan position......

……

Three hours later.

The officers and men of the 1st and 5th Battalions of the Security Regiment were ordered to assemble at the foot of Nanshan, and the artillery unit set up a position of heavy artillery group on the high ground of Jiangshankou.

Several Japanese warships cruised the river, patrolling back and forth from the Nanshan position to the waters of Madang Fortress.

As long as the Japanese positions on Nanshan and Madang Fortress were attacked, the Japanese warships would soon sail to the river for fire support.

The temporary headquarters of the security regiment was established on the top of the mountain behind the village of Jiangkou.

Li Hong raised his binoculars and looked in the direction of Nanshan, carefully observing the situation of the position.

Japanese patrols patrolled all over the mountain, and the rest of the devil soldiers held their positions.

The Japanese army had strict military discipline, and even when there was no fighting, the Japanese soldiers remained on high alert.

The firepower of the Japanese troops on the position was similar to what he had estimated, and there were artillery groups, machine gun groups, and many pillbox fortifications in many places in the position.

Li Hong moved the telescope to reconnoiter repeatedly, and then he called the signal soldiers.

"Signal soldiers, call and ask about the situation of each battalion!"

"Yes, Tuanza!"

The communications soldier picked up the phone and quickly contacted the battalions.

In this battle, although the security regiment had an advantage in strength, the Japanese army's fortifications were very strong, and the Japanese army's firepower was very strong.

If other troops attack the Nanshan position, I am afraid that it will be difficult for a division to take the position in a short time.

The Nanshan position is only a few kilometers away, but many pillboxes have been set up, such a terrain is not suitable for group charge, the Japanese firepower is not weak, and rushing up can only be a human target.

Therefore, in order to attack the Nanshan position, it is necessary to have strong offensive firepower, and heavy artillery and air force are also needed to suppress the enemy's ground firepower.

Soon after, the signal corpsmen inquired about the situation of the battalions.

The signal soldier put down the phone and reported: "The regimental seat, the communication of each battalion is smooth, the first battalion and the fifth battalion have arrived at the designated attack point, and the artillery unit is ready to cover the Japanese army in the Nanshan position at any time!" ”

"Good!" Li Hong looked at the time of his watch and said, "Order the heavy artillery troops, at three o'clock in the afternoon, to attack the position on the northern slope of the Nanshan position!" ”

"Yes, Tuanza!"

The communications corps hurried back to the headquarters, picked up the phone and called the artillery unit.

The northern slope of the position was relatively gentle and relatively easy to capture, but most of the Japanese pillboxes and firepower fortifications were built on this side.

The bunker fortifications on the north slope are not ordinary garbage fortifications made of sandbags, all of which are made of reinforced concrete, which is very strong.

Previously, the Nanshan position, the national army troops also sent heavy guards to defend it, with an infantry regiment and a reinforced artillery battalion.

Judging from the number of troops invested in the Nanshan position and the overall defense of the position, the Japanese army had to pay the price of at least several thousand casualties if they wanted to occupy this position, but the Japanese army captured the Nanshan position in less than a day, and the devil suffered less than 1,000 casualties.

The main reason for such a strong defense line of the national army was that the Japanese army was completely defeated as soon as it attacked, mainly because the Japanese army not only had the support of naval guns and aircraft, but also used a large number of poison gas bombs by despicable little devils.

As we all know, even if the outside of the bunker fortifications is strong, there are firing vents and vents, and a large amount of poison gas enters through these entrances, and most of the national troops in the Nanshan position are killed under the poison gas.

Li Hong had studied the offensive tactics of the Japanese army, and the enemy's tactics were simple and crude and very effective, so he decided to do the same and use the tactics used by the devils to deal with the enemy on the position.

After a few moments, the heavy artillery unit aimed at the northern slope of the Nanshan position.

The artillery unit has two artillery positions in the village of Eguchi, and some 105-mm howitzers and rocket artillery are set up on the high ground of the village.

In addition, several 155-mm cannons were placed on the mountainside, and the direction of shelling was directed at the river.

"Ammunition Hand High Explosive Preparation, One Round Loading !!"

The ammunition men on the howitzer position picked up one shell after another and quickly stuffed it into the chamber.

"Artillery preparation, five free fire, artillery !!"

The flag commander quickly waved the command flag.

Suddenly, the sound of shelling from the artillery positions came and went.

"Tom, tom, tom!!"

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

More than a dozen 105-mm howitzers shelled together, and the dense shells flew towards the Nanshan position in the distance.

After the first wave of shells flew out of the barrels, the ammunition men did not stop, they opened the tail cap and removed the shell skin, and loaded the shells again.

Waves of artillery shells flew out, and the artillery offensive was like a sea of mountains and seas, destroying the world......

The devil soldiers in the distance, most of them hiding in the fortifications, soon heard the screeching of cannonballs.

"Conceal, quickly conceal, large-caliber artillery fire is coming, be careful that the artillery fire covers !!"

The little devil soldiers on the battlefield shouted loudly.

I saw that hundreds of devil soldiers quickly picked up their weapons and hurriedly got under the bomb crater, or ran into the bunker fortifications and pillbox fortifications to hide.

In an instant, dozens of shells fell from the sky and smashed on the Japanese positions on the northern slope.

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

"Boom, boom, boom......"

An explosion sounded from the position on the northern slope, and the explosion was full of flames.

The barbed wire barrier at the front of the devil's position was shattered by shells, and the sky was splashed with rubble and wooden stakes.

Some of the devil soldiers who didn't have time to run into the fortifications were stunned by the sudden cannonballs and fell to the ground.

"Baga Ya Road, damn the artillery ...... of China"

A large group of devil soldiers were crawling and rolling on the ground, their brains were running around, and they couldn't tell the direction at all.

Then, a large wave of artillery shells flew like locusts, and smashed into the vicinity of the Devil's fortifications and firing points.
