Chapter 1294: Destroy the artillery
At the same time, in the palm of the town.
Shun Sakamoto, Takeshi Sakurada, and several wing commanders of the Sakamoto detachment were already alarmed, and they all climbed the ladder to the roof of the headquarters and looked out at the battlefield ahead.
It's a pity that because the distance is too far and the sky is too dark, I can't see anything clearly.
It's just that whether it's Itamoto Shun, Sakurada Takeshi or several other wing captains, they don't worry too much.
Because the 5th Division had been on the Chinese battlefield for more than two years, they were already very familiar with the various tactics that the Chinese army might use, and night battles were no exception.
Sakamoto Shun sneered and said, "I originally thought that Zhong Yi would have a new trick, but I didn't expect that in the end, there was only such a hand as a night counterattack. ”
Takeshi Sakurada said abruptly: "This is also expected. ”
Only Katano was a little worried, and said in a low voice: "Detachment leader, judging from the gunfire on the battlefield ahead, it should be that the four mountains of Liangtong Mountain, Pingfeng Mountain, Wanzhang Mountain and Jiulong Mountain have all been attacked, in this case, the scale of the counterattack of the Chinese army will never be small, in order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, is it necessary to send reinforcements?" ”
Sakamoto shook his head and said, "I don't think there's a need for this. ”
Sakurada Takeya echoed: "There are two brigades stationed in the four positions such as Weighing Mountain, if this can't withstand the night counterattack of the Zhina army, then there is no need to fight this battle, it is better to simply withdraw the troops!" ”
But at this moment, a communications staff officer suddenly hurriedly climbed up.
"Detachment Leader!" The communications staff officer walked quickly to Sakamoto Shun and said with a pause, "The Tsuchiya brigade is in a hurry!" ”
Seeing this, Sakurada Takeshi said: "This must have thwarted the counterattack of the Shina army, and the battle is over." ”
"Is the battle over?" Katano Tasumi and the other wing commanders listened attentively and found that the gunfire coming from the battlefield ahead had indeed become much more sparse.
Sakamoto waved his hand and said, "Read." ”
"Hello!" The communications staff officer paused, unfolded the telegram and read, "Detachment headquarters: The Chinese army uses an unknown artillery that can accompany the infantry assault, which can shoot directly and is extremely lethal!" ”
"Nani? Unknown direct-fire artillery? Can it also accompany the infantry assault? ”
When Shun Sakamoto, Tasumi Katano and others heard this, their faces suddenly changed.
The communications staff officer continued: "After an hour and ten minutes of fierce fighting, the firepower points of our positions on the Tonshan and Wanzhang Mountains were destroyed by the mysterious artillery of the Shina Army, and more than 1,100 officers and men of the brigade, from the group leader Toshizo Tsuchiya to the collective jade shattering. Second Lieutenant Captain of the Communications Squad of the Tsuchiya Brigade, Naoto Yamashita, August 5, Showa 14. ”
After the communications staff finished reading, the roof of the ancestral hall fell into a deathly silence.
Including Itamoto Shun, everyone stared at each other in disbelief.
Until another rush of footsteps sounded from the courtyard, and then another communications staff officer climbed up the ladder to the roof and hurried to Sakamoto Shun.
Seeing this, Shun Sakamoto and Takeshi Sakurada couldn't help but glance at each other.
Damn, the Koike Brigade that won't be stationed at Pingfeng Mountain and Jiulong Mountain also had an accident, right?
However, the more I was afraid of something, the more I came, and I saw that the communications staff officer walked quickly to Sakamoto Shun and reported one after another: "Captain, the Koike brigade is in an emergency!" ”
Sakamoto Shun asked urgently, "The Koike brigade is also collectively broken?" ”
"Uh......" The communications staff officer was stunned when he heard this, and asked in amazement, "Wing Commander, you know everything?" ”
The Koike Brigade, which was ordered to garrison Pingfeng Mountain and Jiulong Mountain, had indeed been completely annihilated, and the situation was similar to that of the Tsuchiya Brigade, and at first, the Koike Brigade was not aware of the danger, and when the Nationalist Army approached the front of the position and launched a fierce counterattack with bazookas, it was too late.
"Nani?" Shun Sakamoto shouted in a lost voice, "Is the Koike brigade really broken? ”
"Hello." The communications staff officer shook his head heavily, then handed the telegram in his hand forward, and said gloomily, "This is a farewell telegram from Second Lieutenant Takeshita, the leader of the communications team of the Koike Brigade. ”
"Yaga." Sakamoto cursed in a low voice, and took the telegram a little abruptly.
At this time, Sakurada Takeshi suddenly shouted: "Detachment leader, the artillery is in danger!" ”
Sakamoto Shun's face changed when he heard this, because after taking the four mountains of Jiulong Mountain, Wanzhang Mountain, Pingfeng Mountain, and Yitong Mountain during the day, Sakamoto Shun ordered the artillery troops to move forward.
At this time, the artillery position had moved forward to the southwest foot of Jiulong Mountain.
Now that Jiulong Mountain and Pingfeng Mountain have been lost, and even the Xiaochi Brigade stationed on these two mountains has been collectively shattered, then the artillery units that came out of the front were suddenly exposed to the range of the Chinese army!
Thinking of this, Sakamoto Shun shouted loudly: "Order, the 5th Squadron of Independent Combat Vehicles will attack immediately, quickly!" ”
One of the heralds standing next to him immediately turned around and went downstairs, quickly giving the order to the 5th Squadron of Independent Tanks.
Within a few minutes, a rumbling engine roar sounded in the direction of Dapeng Mountain in front of them, and immediately afterward, a convoy composed of more than a dozen Type 95 light tanks and more than a dozen armored vehicles drove in the direction of Jiulong Mountain.
It is a pity that it was too late to send tank troops to reinforcements at this time.
……
In fact, from the very beginning, Zhong Yi came to the devil's artillery unit.
If it was just the devils on Jiulong Mountain, Pingfeng Mountain, Wanzhang Mountain and Liangtong Mountain, it was not worth Zhong Yi to use the secret weapon of bazooka.
Because this is Zhong Yi's ultimate weapon!
The reason why Zhong Yi is willing to use the bazooka is to deal with the artillery of the little devil!
Because the situation is clear now, if you don't try to kill the devil's artillery, this battle will not be able to be fought, because Cao Guolin's 5th regiment can't stop the devil at all.
Even if they recaptured the position by counterattacking at night, as soon as the devils counterattacked at dawn the next day, the position would still be lost again.
Moreover, a trick like a night counterattack can work once, and if you use it a second time, the effect will definitely be greatly reduced, even if you have the secret weapon of bazooka.
So the devil's artillery must be killed!
During the day, Zhong Yi had already asked the special operations team to find the location of the devil artillery.
Knowing that the devil's artillery had gone out to the southwest of Jiulong Mountain, Zhong Yi immediately made a decision to launch a night attack this night and knock out the devil's artillery in one fell swoop!
Therefore, after taking the Jiulong Mountain position, the officers and men of the 2nd Battalion did not stop advancing.
Instead, they continued to advance towards the valley at the southwest foot of Jiulong Mountain, and the onslaught continued.
Advancing less than a thousand meters, he encountered the stubborn resistance of the devils.
Yu Qi, who led the attack, was not surprised, because this showed that the devil's artillery position was already close at hand, and as long as the artillery position in front was destroyed, the task would be accomplished!
