At the head of the east gate of Lingqiu, Liu Senyun also saw the explosion of heavy mortar shells!

The fireball mixed with a large amount of black smoke directly rose four or five meters high, and its power was not much different from that of the flying thunder cannon equipped by the garrison regiment, which looked very scary!

He had seen the power of the Flying Thunder Cannon with his own eyes, and if an explosive bag smashed over, the enemy within 20 meters of the impact point would definitely die, and within 30 meters of the projectile would either die or be wounded!

Even if the power of the cannonballs fired by the devils is smaller, there must be a killing range of more than ten meters!

Seeing that the shell smashed directly into the middle of the second company, Liu Senyun's brows were twisted, and his face was very ugly!

It seemed that he had already thought of the picture of the heavy casualties of the second company in his mind, and immediately shouted: "What are the artillerymen still doing in a daze? Fire now! Find the imp artillery position and destroy it! ”

"Listening to the sound of the cannon, the little devil seems to be using a heavy mortar, but I haven't heard that the Lingqiu garrison is equipped with a heavy mortar! It must have been sent in by the cavalry during the day! ”

"Report to the regiment commander immediately, the devil has heavy artillery and is launching a counterattack against us, and the attacking troops have suffered heavy casualties and have retreated!"

When the artillery company and infantry artillery company directly under the battalion counterattacked, the artillery sound in the city had stopped!

Just one round of shells flew over, and the devil artillery position was enveloped in artillery fire!

Before Liu Senyun could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw the second company retreating towards the city under the pursuit of devils!

A pair of eyes widened, almost unrecognized!

The entire second company, a full hundred and fifty people when they attacked, and now there are less than thirty of them, which is very embarrassing!

As for the heavy machine guns and grenadiers brought into the city, all of them are gone!

Even the light machine guns were left with only two left, and the machine gunner held them in his arms. While retreating, he hugged the fire behind him, slowing down the speed of the devil's pursuit!

Liu Senyun reacted quickly, and immediately ordered: "The third company covers, block the little devil's pursuers, and the second company withdraws, shoot quickly!" ”

Li Zhiyong ran up to the city with a heavy face with a heavy face, and when he saw Liu Senyun, his head lowered directly, eager to get into the stone peak!

Liu Senyun wanted to scold people so much that he even had the idea of killing!

But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back!

He saw the battlefield situation in his eyes, and Li Zhiyong in front of him not only did not have it, but he also had merit!

It was he who led the troops all the way to Lingqiu City for more than 200 meters!

It was he who commanded the troops to take out more than a hundred devils with very few casualties!

If it had been last night, it would have been impossible!

As for the final shelling, the heavy casualties of the troops had nothing to do with him!

No commander can change the situation in that situation!

Taking a deep breath, Liu Senyun forcibly suppressed his anger! looked at Li Zhiyong, who was heartbroken and regretful, and was just about to say two words of comfort!

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

Three explosions forced him to refocus his attention on the battlefield!

"Battalion commander, little devil and heavy mortars, our artillery positions are under attack and are being transferred!" The instructor rushed over in a hurry to report!

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

Before Liu Senyun could speak, an increasingly dense explosion had already sounded in the artillery position!

In the blink of an eye, eight or nine fireballs rose from the artillery position in a row!

"It's over!"

Liu Senyun subconsciously popped up these two words in his mind!

Heavy mortars because of their great power, although they also belong to the category of heavy artillery! But some of the advantages of the mortar are not much less!

In particular, the advantage of a fast rate of fire, which was practically not affected by the fact that it belonged to heavy artillery!

Powerful shells smashed into the artillery positions like rain, and in the blink of an eye, they were enveloped in artillery fire!

It is conceivable: under such a fierce shelling, the gunners on the position must not even have time to react, they were directly drowned and lost their lives!

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

Before the people could react from the shock, three more violent explosions suddenly sounded!

The bullet impact point was at the head of the city, very close to him, and Liu Senyun witnessed the entire explosion process with his own eyes!

The fireball mixed with black smoke rose into the air and quickly spread around, and several soldiers didn't even have a chance to lie down, and were directly blown into the sky!

A few fighters farther away were blown over on the spot and fell to the ground motionless!

"Da Da Da ......"

As soon as the explosion ended, gunshots rang out in the city!

Heavy machine guns, crooked handles, set up behind a broken wall more than 100 meters away, and shoot at the city!

Several warriors who poked their heads out of the battlements were hit on the spot and fell on their backs on the top of the city!

Someone's head was punched out of a fist-sized blood hole, and someone was directly cut off half of their head, red and white brains splashed everywhere, and the flesh and blood were blurred, which was very tragic!

Under the cover of machine guns and artillery, the little devils who were hiding slowly emerged from behind the ruins and broken walls, ready to move, with a posture of attacking forward at any time!

"Little devil, this is trying to fight back and kill us!" Liu Senyun shouted with a calm face!

"We must not let their conspiracy succeed, machine gun cover, the troops immediately retreat, leave the city, jump directly through the gap in the city wall, quickly retreat to the offensive position to set up defenses, and prevent the little devils from continuing to launch a counterattack on our offensive position!"

In front of the enemy headquarters of the garrison regiment, as soon as the explosion of heavy mortar shells sounded, Li Hao realized that something was wrong!

Grab the binoculars and rush to the high ground next to the headquarters!

Under the cover of night, the flames of the cannonball explosion were particularly dazzling, and Li Hao could see it clearly even without a telescope!

"This is a large-caliber artillery shell, otherwise it would not have such a big explosion power!" Li Hao shouted!

Then there was a sudden realization on his face: "I understand!" ”

"The little devil sent the cavalry into Lingqiu City during the day with heavy artillery!"

"Only when the troops are equipped with heavy artillery can the devils have the confidence to defend Lingqiu City, and no longer care about the flying thunder cannons we are equipped!"

"And the heavy artillery that can be quickly transported by war horses, if I remember correctly, only heavy mortars!"

"And judging from the flight trajectory of the shells and the screaming sound of breaking through the air, eighty percent of the shells just now were fired by mortars!"

"What a cunning little devil, he quietly sent so many heavy mortars into Lingqiu City!"

As soon as the words fell, a herald rushed over: "Regiment commander, the second company of the special service battalion was attacked by the Japanese heavy mortar, and the troops suffered heavy casualties and have retreat......ed."

"Report to the regiment commander, the attacking troops of the independent battalion are also going to a heavy mortar attack and are retreating!"

"Regiment commander, the artillery company of the special service battalion and the infantry artillery company of the artillery battalion were attacked by heavy mortars during the counterattack against the Japanese army, suffered heavy casualties, and also suffered heavy losses in equipment!"

"Regiment commander, the spy battalion was attacked at the head of the city, and the devils also used heavy mortars!"

"The troops have withdrawn from Lingqiu City and deployed offensive positions outside the city, but the troops have suffered heavy casualties!"

Li Hao's face suddenly became extremely gloomy: "The little devil wants to use heavy artillery to hit us with a counterattack and hit us hard, I wonder if we have all the ideas tonight!" ”

"However, the little devils are too arrogant, they want to eat us with a few heavy mortars, and they are not afraid to knock their teeth and kill themselves!"

"Order: The special battalion, the independent battalion, immediately deploy defenses in the offensive position, arrange more light and heavy machine guns and mortars, as long as the devil dares to go out of the city, resolutely eliminate it!"

Hong Linfeng immediately reminded: "What about the heavy artillery equipped by the devil?" ”

"The power of the cannonball is too great, it explodes a large area, and it can also kill people with a shock wave!"

"If they concentrate artillery fire to bombard our offensive positions, even if the two battalions resist the devil's counterattack, they will suffer heavy casualties!"

"And the little devils in the city now have an extra cavalry unit!"

"First heavy artillery blows up the offensive position, and then the cavalry and infantry attack together, the probability of us holding the position is not high!"

"Don't be afraid!" Li Hao replied confidently!

"We have weapons against the heavy mortars of the little devils!"

"Although the power of heavy mortars is great, it is only the power of shells, and the range is not as far as that of real heavy artillery, and the range is about the same as that of the mortars we are equipped!"

"Two battalions concentrate all the mortars to counterattack, even if they can't destroy them, drag them down, force them to keep moving, and have no chance to reinforce the infantry to counterattack, this can definitely be done!"

"And there are still two mountain artillery batteries in the artillery battalion that have not moved!"

"Order Yuan Qingfeng, an artillery company supports a battalion, if any battalion is about to be unable to hold the offensive position, immediately open fire on the open space between the offensive position and the city wall!"

"Although the little devils in the city have received heavy artillery support, their troops have not increased much?"

"I don't believe that the devils have the guts to counterattack our offensive positions regardless of casualties!"

"As long as we hold the offensive position, how to fight next, we will find a way!"

The Japanese garrison headquarters in Lingqiu City, Aoki Daisa's mood is very good!

In the face of one good news after another, Aoki Daisa, who has always shown people with a serious expression, rarely shows a smile!

The battle situation in front of you is completely within your own plan!

If the current situation continues to develop, there is at least an eighty percent chance that you will defeat the garrison regiment tonight!

This means that I am one step closer to my dream of being a general!

"Sir, the garrison has been routed by us, and all of them are out of the city!" The lieutenant communications officer rushed in and reported!

"Heavy artillery cover, the troops will fight out of Lingqiu City and continue to counterattack the offensive positions of the garrison regiment!" Aoki Osa ordered very seriously!

Then he shifted his gaze to the adjutant: "Order the cavalry to stand by!" ”

"As long as the garrison on the offensive position is defeated, immediately rush out and kill the enemy!"

"Hey!" The adjutant replied with an excited face!

In his eyes, this battle has been won by the Imperial Army!

The next thing you need to do is to expand the results of the battle and try to take out the garrison!

If Aoki Daisa is promoted to general because of killing the garrison regiment, then he will definitely rise and be promoted to one level!

Thinking of this, the adjutant rushed out of the command headquarters as if he had been beaten with chicken blood!

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

As soon as the adjutant's back disappeared from Aoki Daisa's field of vision, the sound of an explosion reached the command headquarters!

"The artillery of the garrison regiment has begun to counterattack, order the heavy mortar squadron, find them at once, kill them!" Aoki Daisa was full of confidence in the heavy mortar that had just arrived, his face was not shocked, and he ordered arrogantly!

"Hey!" A staff officer immediately rushed out of the command headquarters!

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

A few minutes passed, and the explosions did not stop, and they continued to come in!

What's more, the sound of heavy mortar shelling has also become sparse!
