At the position of the independent battalion on the mountainside, the atmosphere at the headquarters was very depressing, and everyone was frightened by the casualty figures reported by Jiang Tianhong.

Although there were no casualties among the artillery and fire companies, the casualties of one company were too great.

There were 89 people before the battle, and there were still those who could still breathe after the battle, and there were only 21 people who were lightly and seriously wounded, and the entire company was almost incapacitated.

"Cheer up!" Li Hao suddenly shouted.

"Our casualties are indeed large, but the casualties of the devils are even greater!"

"According to preliminary statistics, there is a squadron of nearly 200 people in the little devil infantry we killed in the first battle just now, not counting their artillery and heavy machine gunners!"

"With them, there must be more than three hundred devils killed in our hands in this battle, and the ratio of casualties is five to one, no matter where you put it, it can be called a winning battle!"

The heads of several platoon commanders slowly lifted up, and their eyes slowly became hot.

Li Hao continued to shout: "This is not counting the weapons and ammunition that we blew up!" ”

"What I saw alone was a mountain gun, three mortars, and at least five heavy machine guns!"

"Without these heavy weapons, the pressure on us to fight them again will definitely be greatly reduced, and these are also the results of our battle!"

Gong Wenshan, the instructor of the first company, said at the right time: "Comrades, I think the battalion commander is right. We didn't lose this battle, and we won it, and it was a big victory! ”

"Although more than sixty warriors were sacrificed, their sacrifice was worth it!"

"With their efforts, when we fight this Japanese army again, we will be able to reduce casualties by at least a few hundred!"

Gong Wenshan is worthy of being a political work cadre, although his words are a bit exaggerated, but the effect of what he said at this time is very good.

After a few words, the solemn expressions on everyone's faces were completely gone.

Even Jiang Tianhong's face became calm, and then he stared at Li Hao and asked with a hot face.

"Battalion commander, what should we do next?"

"I will continue to kill devils, pull a few more cushions, and bury the sacrificed soldiers!"

Li Hao's serious face slowly relaxed, and he analyzed calmly: "In the battle just now, all our hole cards have been played!" ”

"The devil also has a more intuitive understanding of us, and he will definitely not underestimate the enemy if he attacks again!"

"So if you continue to fight with the devil, you will be sent to death!"

"I decided, abandon the mountainside position, and the defending troops will retreat immediately~"

"Won't fight?" Jiang Tianhong asked anxiously.

Li Hao shook his head and replied: "Of course we have to fight, but this time we have to change the way of playing!" ”

"The infantry withdraws from their positions, the artillery sings the leading role, and after this battle we will retreat!"

The Japanese position at the foot of the mountain, anxiously waiting, the return call from the brigade headquarters and Watanabe Nakasa finally arrived.

"Sir, the brigade headquarters ordered: We are required to quickly break through the defense line of the Eighth Route Army in front of us, march to Lingqiu County, and join the Watanabe Brigade!"

"Watanabe Nakasa called back: It is suggested that we concentrate all our artillery shelling the blocking positions of the Eighth Route Army, give full play to our firepower superiority, break through the defense line of the Eighth Route Army, and rush to Lingqiu County!"

"During the battle, try to avoid close combat with the Eighth Route Army, so as to avoid them from consuming a large amount of our troops through close combat!"

After the report was finished, the adjutant comforted: "Sir, judging from the callback, the brigade headquarters did not hold the brigade command accountable for the defeat just now, it can be seen that the brigade headquarters also knows that the responsibility for the defeat by the Eighth Route Army just now is not ours, you can rest assured now!" ”

Shaozuo's tense nerves finally relaxed.

Then he began to give orders: "The mountain artillery squadron immediately withdraws from the mortar range of the Eighth Route Army, arranges artillery positions, and shells the mountainside blocking positions!" ”

"The mortar squadron is looking for suitable terrain to mount guns, and is ready to counterattack the artillery positions exposed by the Eighth Route Army at any time!"

"One thing to note is that the remaining mortars must be spread out as much as possible."

"Even if you are attacked, you will not be wiped out by the enemy, and there is still room for counterattack."

"The third squadron of infantry, heavy machine gun squadron, prepare for the assault!"

"This time I'm going to raze the mountainside blocking position to the ground and then attack again."

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

After waiting for less than half an hour, the five mountain guns were fired.

Cannonballs are fired in five rounds, and don't drop on the mountainside like money.

Every time an explosion sounded, there must have been a fireball mixed with a large amount of black smoke rising into the air, and a large amount of dirt and debris was blown away with it, flying all over the sky.

In the blink of an eye, the mountainside position was completely shrouded in gunpowder smoke and flying sand and rocks, and he couldn't see his five fingers.

In the headquarters of the independent battalion, Jiang Tianhong, who had just withdrawn, gasped and shouted.

"Oh my god, it's a good thing the troops were withdrawn, otherwise the big guy would have been blown to pieces."

Li Hao replied with a serious face: "The little devil gathered all the mountain artillery in his hand to bombard the mountainside position, the mountain artillery has a long range, great power, and has a fatal destructive power to civil engineering fortifications. Their purpose is obvious, to raze our positions to the ground with mountain artillery, and then to attack! ”

"Battalion commander, you thought of it at the beginning, and only then ordered us to abandon our positions!" Jiang Tianhong suddenly realized and asked.

Li Hao did not deny: "I don't know if the devil commander will do this, but if I am asked to command this battle, I will definitely do it!" ”

"Try to use your firepower advantage to hit us, so that you can inflict heavy damage on us and minimize casualties, why not?"

Jiang Tianhong continued to ask: "Then can we also order the artillery company to open fire!" ”

"The devil's attack force has begun to assemble, and now the artillery bombardment will definitely have the best effect!"

"What I want most now is to see the little devils blown up all over the field by us, with heavy casualties!"

Li Hao's face returned to seriousness: "The six mortars of the artillery company will fire immediately, and each cannon will fire five rapid fires to hit the Japanese attacking troops that are gathering, and retreat after the battle!" ”

"Mountain artillery platoon on standby! The devil mortar squadron has not moved until now, it must be waiting for our artillery company to strike first, and then strike back again! ”

"The mountain artillery platoon must find them for me and blow them up!"

"Three rapid shots per cannon, and the same is to retreat after the fight!"

"In this battle, we can kill a few devils, we can kill a few, don't force it!"

"It's going to be dark, and even if these devils put on their wings before dark, they won't be able to fly to Lingqiu City. We'll clean them up after dark! ”

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

Under the cover of the sound of mountain artillery shelling, the devils did not notice at all that the six mortar shells were smashing towards them.

It wasn't until the shell landed in the middle of the attacking troops and exploded, instantly blowing over more than a dozen soldiers, that the captain of the Shaozuo Brigade reacted.

Although it was heartbreaking, he did not panic when he was prepared, and immediately ordered.

"The artillery squadron will fight back immediately, this time we must kill them!"
