Chapter 534: I can't tell the truth from the fake (second update!) )
Hong Linfeng led the troops to kill outside Lingqiu City in only half an hour, although the city wall was very quiet, except for the crackling and burning torches, there was no other movement!
But Hong Linfeng was sure that there must have been countless Japanese hiding behind the battlements of the city wall, and they were aiming outside the city with rifles and light and heavy machine guns through the shooting holes, and as long as the troops rushed over, the bullets would rain down from the city, turning the attacking troops into a sieve!
So he did not order the troops to attack directly, and made a decision after thinking about it for a while!
"The first battalion will immediately repair the fortifications, and put on the posture that we are going to besiege Lingqiu City for a long time and must take Lingqiu City!"
"The artillery battalion, a battalion of heavy machine gun platoons, mortar platoons, set up all the weapons for me, and fire the artillery in ten minutes, so that the little devils in the city can also taste what it means to rain bullets, and let them feel the taste of being bombed, and they will be beaten when they come up!"
"Woo woo woo ......"
Eight mountain guns fired together, and the screaming sound of shells across the sky soon enveloped the entire battlefield!
In less than five seconds, the sound of the explosion reached everyone's ears!
A few hundred meters away from the city, four fireballs mixed with a large amount of black smoke rose into the air, blowing up the already bright city head even more clearly!
Hong Linfeng held the binoculars and clearly saw the picture of several Japanese puppet soldiers being blown out of the city by shells!
One of the other four shells smashed on the outer wall of the city wall, successfully blowing up several wall tiles, one smashed into the open space outside the city, and two flew into the city, kicking off a large amount of black smoke!
"Keep firing, and you have to aim before firing the artillery, each mountain cannon will fire ten shells first, and each mortar will fire twenty shells, and warm up the little devils on the city wall first!" Hong Linfeng was very satisfied with the first round of artillery fire from the mountain artillery battalion, and then ordered with a face full of anticipation!
"Battalion Commander Chen, let the second company prepare for the attack!"
"Heavy machine gun platoon covers, and the troops rush up as soon as the shelling stops, but you must pay attention to the rhythm of the attack!"
"You can't rush too quickly, and the troops must be dispersed, and all the Japanese puppet troops hiding in the city must be forced to the head of the city!"
"When the artillery fires again, the attacking troops will stop attacking and stand by in place!"
"First give the devils two fake attacks like this, and then a real attack, beat them up, let them not know our reality, and can also kill and injure a large number of their troops!"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Shells fell from the sky and exploded, and one after another soldiers who had no time to retreat were blown away and turned into corpses when they landed!
Chief of Staff Nakasa is very aggrieved!
In his impression, the Chinese battlefield has always been fought by the imperial army with artillery fire against the Chinese army, and it is rare to have the other way around!
And today this scene happened to appear, and it appeared directly in the battle under his command!
"What about our artillery? Why not counterattack, the artillery will immediately counterattack and kill the artillery of the Eighth Route Army! Chief of Staff Nakasa shouted!
The staff officer hesitated for a moment and reminded: "Sir, there are only three mortars in the garrison, and the artillery we brought is all for the front-line troops, and the three guns are definitely not the opponent of the Eighth Route Army!" The brigade commander has an explanation, these three mortars can only be used at critical moments! ”
"Yaga!" The chief of staff can only vent his inner grievances by scolding!
Fortunately, the shelling did not last long, and it was over in two minutes!
"Da Da Da ......"
The sound of heavy machine gun fire followed by the sound of artillery reached the ears of the chief of staff, and this time the chief of staff was not nervous and aggrieved, but looked excited!
In addition to artillery, the troops are definitely equipped with better light weapons and ammunition than the Eighth Route Army outside the city!
In addition, the defending troops have city walls to defend, and they condescendingly attack the attacking troops of the Eighth Route Army! The chief of staff immediately realized that his chance for revenge had come!
"No, in a while, we will not only avenge the shelling just now, but also severely damage the attacking troops of the Eighth Route Army, teach them a lesson, and play their own prestige!" The chief of staff thought secretly in his heart!
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army has begun to attack, about a company of attacking troops, covered by three heavy machine gun fire!" A sentry at the head of the city reminded at the top of his voice!
The chief of staff no longer hesitated, and ordered with excitement and expectation on his face: "All the troops have entered the position, and they will shoot again after listening to my orders, I will inflict heavy damage on the attacking troops of the Eighth Route Army outside, and avenge the warriors who were killed just now!" ”
During the artillery bombardment, the puppet troops who had been hiding under the city wall for more than 300 days immediately rushed to the city wall under the orders of their respective commanders!
Soon, a whole line of soldiers was stewed behind the battlements of almost three hundred meters!
The rifle is held in the hand, and the muzzle sticks out of the wall from the shooting hole, waiting for the order to shoot!
Light and heavy machine guns are mounted on sandbags in the battlements house with the muzzle facing outward, and the machine gunner grips the handle tightly, ready to shoot!
More than twenty grenadier soldiers hid behind the rifle machine gunners, half-crouched on the ground, holding either grenades or grenadiers in their hands, waiting for the order to shoot!
Although every move of the Japanese puppet army on the city wall was blocked by battlements, with the help of binoculars, Hong Linfeng still saw the figure of the devil running around through the gap between the battlements!
Without waiting for the chief of staff of the devil to give the order to shoot, he decisively ordered: "Five shells per mountain artillery, ten shells per mortar gun, fire now!" ”
"Woo woo woo ......"
As soon as the screaming sound of the cannonballs crossing the sky reached the ears of Chief of Staff Nakasa, the excited expression on his face disappeared, and it suddenly turned white!
He shouted in a lost voice: "Baga, we have been fooled, this is a feint attack by the Eighth Route Army, luring us to the city, and then continue to use cannonballs!" ”
"Retreat, except for the guard post, everyone else left the city......"
"Boom, boom, boom......"
Before the order was finished, an explosion sounded in the ears!
Before many soldiers could get up, the exploding shells blew them away!
Only the first round of artillery fire covered the city, and there were nearly twenty more corpses on the city!
As soon as the shelling stopped, the remaining devils seized the short time between the shelling and wanted to leave the city, but the rate of fire of mortars and grenadiers was too fast! They had to retreat under artillery fire and get out of the city walls as soon as possible!
Otherwise, when the mountain artillery shells fall down, with the huge power of the mountain artillery, their casualties will definitely be greater!
With great difficulty, all the troops withdrew from the city, and the number of more than 300 people had been sharply reduced to less than 250, and several light and heavy machine guns had been lost!
The Chief of Staff of Nakasa's face was full of anger, and just as he was about to curse, the sound of artillery on the head of the city stopped, and it was replaced by the sound of heavy machine gun fire just now!
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army is still attacking again, it is still a company, and the attacking troops have already reached one hundred and fifty meters outside the city!" The sentinels who stayed behind at the head of the city shouted from afar!
This time the chief of staff did not give an order immediately, he hesitated, worried that this time it was another conspiracy of the Eighth Route Army!
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army has reached one hundred and thirty meters outside the city, and the speed of the attack is getting faster and faster!" Seeing that the chief of staff did not move, the guard post continued to report the situation outside the city!
"All the troops enter the position, one hundred and thirty meters is already very close, a surprise attack can rush to the foot of the city wall, we can't afford to bet, we must not let the Eighth Route Army get close to the city wall!" The chief of staff finally made up his mind and ordered!
"And at such a close distance, if the Eighth Route Army fires again, it will definitely hurt their own people by mistake!"
"Everyone go up to the city wall, shoot when they enter the position, and resolutely block their attack, without waiting for the shooting order!"
