Chapter 63 Shelling of the Devil's Artillery Position
In the position of the second battalion, Liu Gen and the soldiers of the artillery company transferred three Type 92 infantry guns to determine the location of the devil's artillery position, and the artillery company also needed to move.
The soldiers pushed the Type 92 infantry gun forward, and in front, there were several soldiers of the artillery company clearing the obstacles in front of them to facilitate the advance of the Type 92 infantry gun. The sapper shovel captured from the devils is still very useful, and the soldiers are very fast in clearing the barricades.
From time to time, soldiers will fill in some of the pits in front to ensure that the movement of the Type 92 infantry guns will not be affected too much. At the same time, the fighters of the artillery company's guard squad clenched the rifles in their hands and vigilantly observed everything around them. In the hands of the fighters, there were three Czech light machine guns, in order to ensure the safety of the soldiers of the artillery company.
These three Czech light machine guns are the treasures of the new regiment, and Ding Wei can be transferred to the soldiers of the artillery company for use, which is enough to show that he attaches great importance to the artillery company. Half an hour later, Liu Gen led the fighters of the artillery company to a position suitable for shelling, a small hillside.
"Check and clean up the infantry guns, and when it's time to shoot, there won't be any problems." Liu Gen commanded the soldiers of the artillery company, and at the same time he was also observing the surrounding situation, which was still a certain distance from the front line, and he could not see the existence of devils.
In twenty minutes, the soldiers cleaned up all the infantry guns, and in the process of cleaning, the soldiers were quite serious and made sure that there were no problems with the infantry guns. After being inspected by Liu Gen, the company commander, the soldiers relaxed and waited for Liu Gen's next order.
Picking up the binoculars and looking at the position of the first battalion, Liu Gen could see that the soldiers were still fighting with the devils, but even if the equipment of the first battalion was good and brought a lot of casualties to the devils, the madness of the devils still allowed them to successfully rush to the side of the soldiers of the first battalion.
Seeing the soldiers of the first battalion engaged in a tragic white-knuckle battle, Liu Gen put away his binoculars and knew that the artillery company's movements needed to be faster. It's just that Liu Gen needs to wait until the soldiers who went to observe come back to determine the location of the devil, and he can't open fire rashly.
"Get ready for battle! As soon as the fighters who went to observe come back, then we will directly carry out artillery bombardment, destroying the artillery positions of the devils in one fell swoop as much as possible! ”
"When the time comes, I want you to shoot half of the shells in five minutes!" Liu Gen looked at the soldiers of the artillery company, his expression was extremely serious, which made the soldiers also become dignified, they knew the difficulty.
In this battle, the new regiment took out all its money, and there were as many as ten boxes of shells brought here. Maybe ten boxes of shells are nothing to the devil, but for the new regiment, such a large number of shells have not been used at once. Ten boxes, a full fifty rounds of shells, is enough for the devil's artillery to drink a pot.
Twenty minutes later, the devil was repulsed again by the soldiers of the first battalion, but the first battalion also suffered heavy casualties. Blood flowed uncontrollably on the ground, seeping into the yellow earth beneath his feet, staining it red. In the area where the first battalion fought with the devils, quite a few soldiers of the first battalion fell.
Due to the battle, it was impossible to collect the remains of these soldiers, and Zhang Dabiao looked at the remaining soldiers with a heavy heart. The devil's attack was too crazy, even if Zhang Dabiao asked the soldiers to arrange their positions in advance, it still caused a lot of casualties to the soldiers.
Looking at the corpse of the devil who fell not far away, Zhang Dabiao was a little uncomfortable, even if the casualties of the devil were not small, but he still felt a little sorry for the soldiers of his battalion. Zhang Dabiao didn't know when Liu Gen's artillery company would attack, but he knew that he couldn't easily hold back, and the task of the first battalion had not yet been completed.
At this time, on the hillside, Liu Gen finally waited for the soldiers who went to inspect the devil's artillery position, and after getting the corresponding data from the soldiers, he immediately calculated the corresponding shooting angle!
"Shoot the Yuan! Azimuth 27-00, Shooting 06-80—— put!" Liu Gen quickly gave the order to shoot!
The fighters, who had been prepared for a long time, fired quickly, their expressions were serious, and suddenly, the shells were already out of their chests! After the training of Liu Gen, the company commander, the artillery company has learned a lot of basic knowledge that needs to be mastered in artillery bombardment. It is precisely because of this that the soldiers of the artillery company can react so quickly.
"According to the original plan, after five salvos, extend the shot!" Liu Gen shouted loudly again.
The soldiers quickly cleaned the chamber of the cannon, and then chose to shoot again, shooting again and again, so that the soldiers were tense all over, and they did not dare to have any accidents. Liu Gen looked at the soldiers, and he would quickly make up for any problems to avoid affecting the bombardment of the soldiers, and at the same time, he was also carefully observing the state of the soldiers when they were shooting.
The devil's artillery position, the devil's artillery who is resting does not have much vigilance, and under the protection of other devils, these artillerymen don't think that there will be dirt and eight roads to touch here, they are very relaxed. In the eyes of the devil artillery, it is impossible for the Eighth Route Army to have artillery that threatens them, and even if there is, it is impossible to easily find their position.
"Whoosh" "Whoosh" "Whoosh"
In the air, there was an abnormal noise, and the devil artillery failed to react at the first time, until a devil looked into the air and found a black spot in the air, and the devil artillery reacted. But before the devil's artillery could shout, the shells were already falling.
"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"
Three shells fell and exploded in the devil's artillery position, killing and injuring some unsuspecting devil artillery, and these three shells alone made the devil's artillery position chaotic.
"Yaga! Yaga! Shelling! Shelling! "The artilleryman with devils shouted loudly.
The devil's artillery scattered in all directions, they quickly fled towards the artillery position, and encountered artillery bombardment, these devils' artillery was a little confused, when did the Eighth Route Army also have artillery? Didn't you say that the Eighth Route Army in the mountains was just a small unit?
Before the devil's artillery could run out, another shell fell on the position, and a loud explosion sounded, and shrapnel flew out in the surroundings. The devil artillery who had not yet fled was blown to the ground, and one of the devil artillery was more unlucky, the shell fell at his feet, and his whole person was blown out, and his flesh and blood were splashed everywhere.
The Type 92 infantry gun is equipped with high-explosive shells, but the power is not weak, just two rounds of artillery bombardment, destroying the two infantry guns on the devil's position. The shells were still falling towards the devil's position, and the shells that kept falling covered all the devil's artillery positions and successfully blew up the devil's remaining two infantry guns.
Fifteen shells landed on the artillery positions of the devils, and the soldiers of the artillery company immediately carried out extended fire according to the original plan. The artillery position of the devils is around the large army of devils, and around it there is a brigade of devils, which is another brigade of devils.
Under the extended firing, even if the devils had already heard the shelling and retreated farther away, the camp and baggage they left behind could not be transported away in time. The shells landed on the devil's camp and blew up the devil's camp again.
During this time, a shell landed next to the Devil's ammunition depot and successfully detonated it. Flames rose from the devil's camp, and every now and then there would be an explosion, which was the ammunition in the devil's camp.
"Stop shooting! Check the infantry artillery! Prepare to support the battle of the 1st Battalion! Seeing that there were still two boxes of shells that had not been fired, Liu Gen decisively gave an order
