Chapter 987: No Accompaniment (First Update!) )

The mountain march was originally more tiring than the plains, and then it was necessary to guard against the sneak attack of the garrison regiment all the time, and after a day's march, every little devil was physically and mentally exhausted.

After dinner, find a place to lie down and rest and replenish your strength.

The most unfortunate thing is the guard post, who is tired all day during the day and continues to stay up late at night.

Relying on willpower to hold on, you can still stay vigilant in the first half of the night.

In the second half of the night, they couldn't hold it anymore, and their upper and lower eyelids began to fight, and they fell into a state of confusion.

For more than 3,000 days, if the puppet army is crowded on a hill and camped, the density of personnel is too high.

The enemy can reimburse himself for a squad if he smashes a shell.

Nakatani Osa would definitely not do such a stupid thing, and after staring at the map for a long time, he chose three mountains that were horns of each other.

The hills are less than a kilometer apart from each other, and a rapid march can be reached in twenty minutes.

No matter which hill is attacked, the artillery on the other two hills can provide artillery reinforcements as soon as possible, so as to reduce the operational pressure on the attacked hilltop.

The target Li Hao chose to attack was the hill where the headquarters of the Japanese wing was located, and it was also the hill where the most little devils gathered.

It will be much easier to kill the little devil with the strongest combat power first, and then fight other troops.

The remaining heavy mortars of the six battalions were all concentrated here, a total of fifteen guns, lined up in a row, with their muzzles held high, pointing directly at the target.

Fifty shells were prepared next to each cannon, which hit the hill in the shortest possible time, and then retreated.

In order to prevent the Japanese artillery from counterattacking, all 15 guns were deployed on the back of a hill two kilometers away from the Japanese army, which is the so-called anti-slope position.

The mountain artillery equipped by the Japanese army could reach here, but because the mountain artillery was a direct fire, all the shells that came from it must have been blocked by the hill, and the artillery hiding behind the hill could not be injured.

Mortars are curved artillery, which can hit artillery on anti-slope positions with shells, but the devils are equipped with light mortars and the range is insufficient.

Only one squadron of heavy mortars could contend with it, but they were stationed with the wing command.

The fifteen heavy mortars of the garrison regiment preemptively attacked, and even if they could not destroy them all, it would definitely be fine to inflict heavy damage.

Of course, these heavy mortars are just a killer weapon that Li Hao uses to deal with devils.

In addition to them, at a distance of more than a thousand meters from the top of the hill, five light mortar positions were dispersed.

There were six to eight light mortars in each position, some of which were equipped by the garrison regiment itself, and some of which captured the Kuroki brigade during the day.

Each mortar was equipped with 10 shells, and the target was also the hill where the headquarters of the Japanese wing was located.

When you see an offensive flare, you can shoot the shells out within a minute, and then quickly retreat, not giving the devils time to fight back.

This meant that within a minute of the start of the attack, the hill where the Japanese wing headquarters was located would be saturated with at least 400 shells.

The heavy mortar squadrons stationed there are even a problem for self-preservation, let alone counterattack.

At one o'clock in the morning, after all the devils had fallen asleep, the long-lost signal flare of the garrison regiment was lifted into the air.

With the sound of a "horn ......", a signal flare sounded over the battlefield, and a white light burst out.

A few seconds later, the explosion of "boom boom boom ......" began to sound on the top of the mountain.

The firelight flew and the smoke filled the air, illuminating the mountain as if it were day.

Many devils were drowned in artillery fire while still in their sleep, or they were blown up into the sky, and they were smashed everywhere like toys.

"Quick, Protect Wing Captain transfer, get out of here." The captain of the guard was also frightened by the sudden artillery fire, and when he opened his eyes, he saw the picture of several of his subordinates being blown away, and then jumped up from the ground and ordered in a hurry.

"Sir, the garrison is under attack by at least forty mortars, and there are heavy mortars in it, and the hill cannot stay, and must be moved immediately." Seeing that Nakatani Osa was taken out by the guards, the captain of the guard hurriedly reported.

"What about the Chief of Staff?" Nakatani asked rhetorically with a frown.

"Wing Commander, the lowly duty is here...... Chief of Staff rushed over from afar, his left arm sleeve was already stained red with blood, obviously injured.

A look of solemnity flashed across Nakatani's face.

The chiefs of staff were wounded, which shows how heavy the shelling was.

His brows furrowed even deeper, and he immediately ordered: "Attack is the best defense, contact the artillery unit, and counterattack immediately!" ”

"The garrison must have gathered all its artillery to deal with us, and we must seize the opportunity to kill them, or at least inflict heavy damage on them."

"The troops immediately withdrew from the hill, assembled at the foot of the mountain, and killed directly at the artillery positions of the garrison regiment."

"The troops of the other two garrisons immediately assembled and outflanked the artillery positions of the garrison regiment in a roundabout way."

"Although their artillery fire is fierce, they do not have many troops."

"Even if we fight with them, we can win this battle."

On a high ground three kilometers away from the battlefield, Li Hao held a telescope and could clearly see the entire battlefield.

"Regiment commander, the little devils on Hill No. 1 are rushing outside the station, assembling at the foot of the mountain, and launching an assault in the direction of our artillery position." The observation post came running over and reported.

A large number of little devils rushed out of the station with torches and gathered at the foot of the mountain.

The number of torches grew, and finally they converged into a dragon of fire and slashed towards the heavy mortar position.

"Give a signal to the mobile battalion, let them go up, meet this little devil, block for twenty minutes, and then alternately cover the retreat." Li Hao ordered in a deep voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was also movement on the second mountain.

A fiery dragon burst out of the garrison and slashed at the heavy mortar positions from the flank, very quickly.

Li Hao's face remained unchanged, and he continued to order: "Send a signal to the special agent battalion, meet the Japanese puppet army rushing out of the No. 2 hill head-on, block for twenty minutes, and then alternately cover the retreat." ”

"Regiment commander, the Japanese puppet army on Hill No. 3 has also moved." The observation post continued to report.

When Li Hao looked over with a telescope, they were doing the same thing as the little devil on the second mountain.

Li Hao snorted coldly and replied: "The devil's appetite is not small, the garrison on the No. 1 hill is attacking head-on, and the garrisons on the other two hills are outflanking on the left and right flanks, this is a posture that wants to swallow us in one bite." ”

"If you really die here tonight, the little devil may really be able to get his wish."

"But I'm sorry, it's the artillery who sings the leading role tonight, more than a thousand shells, even if two shells kill a devil, it's enough for them to drink a pot."

"So we won't accompany you."

"Order the independent battalion to meet it head-on, and the task is the same as that of the special service battalion, and it will be withdrawn after the fight."

Nakatani Osa was lucky that there were no shells on his side throughout the retreat.

After finally breaking out of the station, the hill was already covered by artillery fire, and the subordinates who had not yet rushed out definitely had no chance to come out.

"Da ......" The sound of heavy machine gun fire suddenly sounded in front of him, waking Nakatani from the rest of his life.

"Sir, the counterattack force was intercepted by the Eighth Route Army, the other side is equipped with a large number of light and heavy machine guns, and the strength is about two companies." The subordinates ran over and reported.

"Bring the artillery up and kill them." Nakatani commanded murderously.

Not long after, there was also a dense fire of heavy machine guns on the left and right flanks.

The killing intent on Nakatani's face became even stronger, and he shouted with excitement: "Our judgment is right, the main forces of the garrison are here, we must seize the opportunity to kill them tonight." ”

"All the artillery go up, first kill the Eighth Route Army that intercepted us, and then besiege their artillery positions."
