Chapter 433: The Battle of Yellow Cliff Cave (2)
At dawn, as soon as the workers of the Huangyadong Arsenal got up to wash, they could hear the roaring sound of cannonballs.
Without the notice of the heads of the departments, the workers knew that it was very likely that the devil had called, and after a brief panic, they quickly calmed down. The workers have been working in the Huangyadong Arsenal for so long, and they have long known how strong the defense of Huangyadong is, and the devils can't easily attack it.
Soon, under the arrangement of the heads of various departments, the workers entered the fortifications in a unified manner, and with the continuous extension of the devil's artillery fire, it was easy to suffer casualties if they continued to stay outside.
After bringing the workers back to the fortifications that had been prepared a long time ago, the people in charge led by Foreman Qi began to continuously transfer valuable machine tools, and it was safe to stay in the fortifications, but to let them watch the machine tools of the arsenal being destroyed, Foreman Qi They simply could not do it.
Considering the safety of the workers, Foreman Qi and others did not mobilize the workers, but there were still many workers who left the fortifications to help Foreman Qi and them transfer the machine tools. It's just that the transfer of machine tools is not so easy, even after Liu Gen arrived, he ordered the students of the artillery school to join the team of transferring machine tools, but he also failed to transfer a few valuable machine tools.
Liu Gen did not join the ranks of transferring the machine tool, he was carefully observing the landing point of the devil's shells, judging how long it would take for the devil's shells to hit the Yellow Cliff Cave.
From the explosion of the devil's shells, Liu Gen could hear that these shells that were constantly extending in the direction of the Huangyadong Arsenal came from the devil's Type 94 mountain artillery and Type 96 150mm night battle howitzer, and such a caliber was already the heavy artillery in the mouth of the devil's troops.
In the face of the frantic shelling of the devil's artillery unit, the soldiers of the headquarters special service regiment responsible for guarding the Huangya Cave could only hide in the fortifications and did not dare to come out easily. It is also due to the special terrain of the Huangya Cave area, which makes it difficult for even the devil artillery unit to cause too much damage to the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army.
If you fight the devils in another place, then the devils' heavy artillery, mountain artillery, and mortars are enough to firmly suppress the firepower of the headquarters special service group, and even say that the headquarters special service group can be easily defeated.
At this time, Commander Ou had already begun to command the soldiers of the headquarters special service group, and he constantly let the soldiers enter the various fortifications of Huangya Cave to block the attack of the devils after the shelling. As soon as the devil was discovered, the headquarters special service team reported the news of the devil's Huangya Cave to the headquarters, which was valued by the headquarters bosses.
After Mr. Peng knew that the devil troops quietly appeared in Huangyadong and took the initiative to attack Huangyadong, he handed over the task of defending the Huangyadong Arsenal to the headquarters special service group, and he believed that the headquarters suddenly special mission under the command of Commander Ou could complete the defense of the Huangyadong Arsenal very well.
In the face of the attack of the devil troops, Commander Ou did not dare to have the slightest contempt, from the devil troops equipped with heavy artillery, mountain artillery can be released, the devils should have mastered the relevant situation about the Huangyadong Arsenal, if the Huangyadong Arsenal is not taken, they will not retreat easily. As for the support of the surrounding friendly forces, Commander Ou didn't have much hope, with such a large number of troops as devils, even if there were troops who wanted to support, it would not have much effect.
What's more, with the firepower shown by the devil troops, Commander Ou didn't want troops to come to support, without such special terrain conditions as Huangya Cave, if there were troops to support him, then there would inevitably be a large number of casualties. When reporting the relevant situation to the headquarters, Director Ou took this into account, and I believe that the CEOs of the headquarters will pay attention.
Looking at the artillery fire in the devil's eyes, Commander Ou looked solemn, the devil didn't care about the shells so much, it only showed that the devil had enough shells, otherwise it would be impossible to waste it like this. And to prepare enough shells, and to mobilize so many troops to come, all of this needs to be based on the devil's determination of the location of the Huangyadong Arsenal.
The fact that the devil's action this time was so swift and well prepared undoubtedly shows that someone exposed the location of the Huangyadong Arsenal, but I don't know who caused the exposure of the Huangyadong Arsenal!
Commander Ou kept arranging the soldiers of the special service group, and he could only hope that he could successfully defend the Huangyadong Arsenal. The strength of the special mission group is not much, less than 1,000 people, and with such a force, it needs to resist the attack of more than 5,000 devils. To be honest, Captain Ou was not sure in his heart, he didn't know if he would be able to defend it!
But Commander Ou knew that as long as he was alive, then the Huangyadong Arsenal would definitely not be lost, and if the Huangyadong Arsenal was occupied by devils, then it could only mean that he had sacrificed.
Straightening his military hat, Regiment Commander Ou rushed to the front line, he had to command the battle at the front line, and only at the front line. In order to ensure that he grasps the news of the transfer of devils' troops as soon as possible and does a good job in dealing with it.
……
In the Huangyadong Arsenal, Liu Gen kept calculating the landing point of the devil's artillery fire in his heart, and there was an obvious anxious look on his face, according to the devil's current shelling speed, there would be two more rounds to reach the location of the arsenal. The only thing to be thankful for is that most of the workers have taken refuge in the Yellow Cliff Cave, and even if the devil's shells hit, they will not ask for a single casualty.
Unless the devil artillery successfully drove the shells into the Yellow Cliff Cave, the workers would be safe enough to stay in the Yellow Cliff Cave.
"Foreman Qi. You can't continue to transfer these machines, the devil's shells are coming soon! Now everyone has withdrawn into the Yellow Cliff Cave, and the devil's bombardment is coming! Liu Gen hurriedly came to Foreman Qi and shouted loudly.
Foreman Qi stopped what he was doing, he looked at Liu Gen, and could see the seriousness on Liu Gen's face. Thinking that Liu Gen was still the 'cannon god' in the mouths of the soldiers, Foreman Qi realized the seriousness of the problem, and he hurriedly shouted loudly for the workers present to retreat to avoid casualties under the shelling of the devils.
It's just that Liu Gen and Foreman Qi are a little helpless, and the workers and heads of various departments present have not stopped their actions, and they are unwilling to give up these machine tools in the plant. Everyone knows the importance of machine tools, and we all know that machine tools are not easy to manufacture. Now the conditions of the arsenal have finally improved slightly, but it has been attacked by the devil's troops.
In the eyes of the heads of departments and workers, even if they all die here, the machine tools must be transferred.
"The cadets of the artillery school listen to the order! Take everyone away immediately! Immediately! ”
"Comrades, people are more important than machine tools, even if these machine tools are destroyed, as long as we are still there, then we can make better machine tools! Retreat, comrades! The devil's artillery extension is coming! Liu Gen shouted loudly.
Under Liu Gen's order, the students of the artillery school who were originally helping the workers transfer the machine tools also took action, and they directly pulled the workers to run towards Huangya Cave. These students all know that Liu Gen, the principal, is powerful, and they all believe that Liu Gen's judgment will not have any problems, the devil's cannonball is coming, then it must be coming soon!
Under the guidance of Liu Gen and the instructors of the artillery school, the students have long understood a truth, that is, as artillery, the rarest branch of the Eighth Route Army, they need to put their lives first. Only survive. in order to be able to better play their own value!
Soon, with the efforts of Liu Gen and others, the heads of various departments and workers of the arsenal were all taken away from the factory, and they all rushed towards the location of Huangya Cave.
"Boom"
"Boom"
"Boom"
“……”
As soon as they came to the mouth of the Yellow Cliff Cave, the devil's shells fell in the workshop of the Yellow Cliff Cave Arsenal, and the loud explosion sounded out, and the workshop was greatly damaged, especially the machine tools. The only thing to be thankful for is that the devil's artillery fire chose to continue to extend and did not continue to shell the plant, otherwise the losses of the arsenal would have been even more serious!
"The transfer must be carried out immediately, and we received an order from the headquarters to order our arsenal to carry out the transfer." Director Xu waited until Liu Gen and the others came in, and then left to announce.
Liu Gen nodded, this was not unexpected by him, before the devil attacked Huangya Cave, the Eighth Route Army was aware of it, and the headquarters special service group once again strengthened the fortifications of Huangya Cave. At the same time, a few days ago, the bosses of the headquarters also came to Huangya Cave and personally explored the terrain conditions of Huangya Cave, which also greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers.
Before, Liu Gen was still a little puzzled and didn't understand what was going on, but now Liu Gen understood that the devil's actions should have been discovered by the scouts of the Eighth Route Army. For this reason, the CEOs played a big game of chess, and the defense of the Huangyadong Arsenal is the top priority!
"Immediately organize the workers to transfer machine tools, as well as materials and ammunition from the arsenal, we can't leave a stitch and a thread for the enemy!"
"If you start the transfer work now, there may be a danger to your life, but I hope you can persevere, only when our arsenal completes the transfer work, can the comrades who are responsible for the security work on the front line really put their minds at ease!" Captain Xu said loudly, time is pressing, and the transfer of the arsenal must start early.
And the extension of the devil's artillery fire has gone away, and now is also the most suitable time for transfer, with the number of machine tools and materials in the arsenal, it will take at least two or three days to complete the transfer! Whether the soldiers of the special task force who are responsible for the defense of the Huangyadong Arsenal can successfully resist the attack of the devils for two or three days is the most important.
"Genzi, this time you stay by my side, the bosses hope that you can evacuate safely to avoid you from danger."
"Genzi, you are also a powerful enough artilleryman, and I want to trouble you to observe the movements of the devil artillery to prevent us from being attacked by the devil artillery." Director Xu came to Liu Gen. Speak directly.
Liu Gen is a good artillery soldier and has an extremely good record, but in such a battle, Liu Gen can't play a big role at all, no matter how powerful he is, what can he do? One person's strength simply can't easily have too much impact on a battle, and compared to letting Liu Gen participate in the battle as an artilleryman, the bosses prefer that Liu Gen can evacuate safely and continue to play Liu Gen's ability.
"How could the bosses give such an order? I guess that's a little too much to look up to. Liu Gen said helplessly.
Although Liu Gen somewhat guessed that the bosses would not let themselves enter the battlefield easily, he didn't expect this day to come so quickly, as an artilleryman, not being able to enter the battlefield is the most painful thing!
"Genzi, the bosses are also doing this for your own good, everyone wants you to encounter any danger on the battlefield."
"In our arsenal, even if all of us are sacrificed, you kid can't have a problem, even if you kid sacrifices, you have to die behind us! Genzi, you are very good, we all feel that you are the most important part of the arsenal, without you, the arsenal would not have been able to develop so quickly! ”
"This time you stay by my side, don't run around, let's complete the transfer of the arsenal together!" Director Xu's eyes were full of determination, he clearly knew Liu Gen's ability, and he also knew the importance of Liu Gen! Even if you don't have the bosses' orders, he won't let Liu Gen enter the battlefield easily!
Looking at Director Xu with a firm attitude, Liu Gen could only nod helplessly, what could he do in the face of this situation? can only obey the orders of Director Xu.
"Director Xu, let's do it, I will send Wang Chao and several of his instructors from the artillery school to the special mission group to assist them in defense. Their artillery skills are not bad, and I believe that with their joining, the soldiers of the special mission group can also be more relaxed. After a moment of silence, Liu Gen said.
This time, Director Xu didn't have any opinions, he was able to become an instructor at the artillery school, Wang Chao's abilities were very good, and they could indeed play a lot of roles when they joined the special service group.
After Liu Gen told Wang Chao and several of their instructors about this matter, Wang Chao and they didn't have any opinions, as artillerymen, there would always be times when they went to the battlefield. The trainees were just halfway through their training, and it was naturally impossible for them to go to the front line to participate in the battle. Only these instructors are the most suitable candidates.
"President Liu, thank you for giving us this opportunity! We will let the devils see the power of our Eighth Route Army artillery! ”
Wang Chao and the others turned to leave, their steps were very fast, when leaving, they did not have the slightest fear, but were extremely excited about the upcoming battle, for Wang Chao and them, they were ready to join the special task force and fight with them, then they were ready to die! For Wang Chao and them, death is not terrible, as long as they can kill devils, let them do anything.
Maybe Wang Chao's only regret is that after they leave, there will be some problems with the training progress of the cadets, after all, without them, there will not be enough instructors in the artillery school to be responsible for the training of the cadets!
Watching Wang Chao and them leave, Liu Gen's mood was depressed, he didn't know if Wang Chao and they would be able to come back from the battlefield, but as soldiers, as artillerymen, the battlefield would be their home.
"Wait for me!" Liu Gen muttered in a low voice.
