"Boom!" Another loud bang.

"Hurry up, evacuate quickly! This is heavy artillery...... Evacuate! ”

Captain Yotsuo Toya, the leader of the cannon group, although his ears were buzzing from the heavy artillery that had exploded continuously, he still yelled anxiously and loudly in all directions. A series of eight shells just fell, although the accuracy was not very high, except for the first shell, the rest of the shells fell around the artillery group, which showed that the quality and experience of the opponent's artillery were not very good, but the huge explosion still shook his ears to buzz. He only turned his head to see the terrified faces of the soldiers around him, and the voices they shouted had swept into the sky with the rising dust and muddy water.

"Boom!"

Another loud bang. A Type 92 cannon was hit by a shell, and the seemingly sturdy and mighty cannon immediately scattered into four or five parts and flew into the air in an instant, and the muzzle of a black hole smashed into the sky until it hit a soldier who was holding his head to dodge, and Toya Yotsuo could clearly see that the soldier's intestines were squeezed out by the heavy barrel on the spot, and a pile of blue-gray intestines was dragged to the ground.

"An eight-inch heavy gun with a caliber of more than two hundred millimeters!"

As an artillery commander, Totani knew better than anyone that the four-inch guns he commanded were more than just four inches away from the opponent's eight-inch guns. The caliber of the artillery will get a huge increase in power after every inch of caliber, and the power of a large-caliber gun like the eight-inch cannon is simply not comparable to its own cannons.

"Let's go...... Everybody go! ”

It was the last sound he left in this world, after a shell of more than two hundred kilograms fell and exploded less than thirty meters away from him. The place where he was turned into a huge crater of tens of meters in a loud explosion, and he was buried with two Type 92 105mm cannons, dozens of soldiers of the artillery brigade, and more than a hundred fused shells piled up not far behind him.

And this scene was also seen by Nobuo Kobayashi a mile away, and he closed his eyes in pain. At this moment, he was finally sure that his artillery brigade was finished. Looking at the rising pillar of clouds not far away, he knew that it was a scene that would only happen when ammunition exploded.

After the destruction of the Japanese Type 92 cannon brigade, it was the Japanese attacking troops that were directly affected, and the M101 howitzer battalion, which could not fight back under the suppression of Japanese artillery fire, vented its anger that had been held back for a morning.

"All artillery positions are prepared, target the front of our army's position, carry out barrage blocking, and fire three times in a hurry...... Put! ”

"Bang Dang ......"

"Woo ......"

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

A company of dozens of shells fell on the Japanese offensive formation. The sudden artillery bombardment suddenly made the original imposing Japanese attack formation suddenly chaotic, after all, no matter how brave the soldiers were, they could not resist the shells with their flesh and blood.

Just when the Japanese formation was in disarray, it was less than two kilometers away from the 577th Regiment. On the position of the heavy artillery battalion, the head of the battalion commander Zhang Shaojie was already a little groggy at this time, this B4 heavy gun is not ordinary, not only powerful. The sound is louder when the cannon is fired. It's not just him, anyway, all the soldiers who were next to him just now are buzzing in their ears at the moment.

In the end, he was really shocked, he put on a headset, listened to the bombing effect reported by the front artillery observer from the headset, and listened to the results of the shelling reported by the front observer, he patted his thigh excitedly.

"Good...... Okay, Lao Tzu only fought three rounds, and an artillery brigade reimbursed him, this time Lao Tzu sees if you dare to be arrogant! ”

"Battalion commander...... Battalion commander...... Master Huang asked me to tell you...... "At this time. A soldier ran up to him and said a word to him.

"What did you say?" His ears were still a little buzzing, and he shook his head and asked loudly.

"Battalion commander, Division Commander Huang ordered us to move our positions immediately. They went to Hongguang Village to support the 578th Regiment, where they were said to have been stubbornly resisted by the Japanese and were in dire need of heavy artillery support. ”

"Alright, I got it!" Zhang Shaojie looked at the more than ten shells behind him that had been fused and had not yet been fired, and shouted angrily: "Okay, stop the shelling and immediately transfer the position, Hongguang Village ahead!" ”

"Understand ......"

"Brothers, get moving!"

With Zhang Shaojie's order, the entire heavy artillery battalion immediately became busy, saying that it was busy, but it was really busy. Don't look at the fact that the heavy artillery battalion only has eight guns, each gun is only equipped with fifteen gunners, and the infantry companies that can be assigned to them, the cars that carry ammunition, and the various vehicles and personnel add up to at least three or four hundred people and dozens of vehicles.

I have to say that Zhang Shaojie and the heavy artillery battalion were indeed very lucky, and less than half an hour after they left, six Mitsubishi Type 93 bombers and three Type 99 twin-engine light blast planes flew over from their original positions, and they flew in the direction of Changhong under the cover of four Type 1 fighters

It's just that what they didn't expect was that when they approached Changhong Township one hundred and twenty kilometers, they had already been detected by the SCR-584 radar deployed around the division headquarters.

This kind of radar with a working wavelength of 10 centimeters, a ranging accuracy of ±22.8 meters, and an angle measurement accuracy of ±0.06 degrees is one of the most outstanding air defense radars in another time and space, and it cooperates with the commander to greatly improve the hit rate of anti-aircraft artillery shooting.

Although the 202nd Army now also has its own flying group, due to the constraints of the pilots, the size of the flight group is still very small, so Su Jin still equipped each division with an air defense regiment, equipped with a battalion of M2 90-mm anti-aircraft guns and 88-mm anti-aircraft guns.

Just when the Japanese planes flew over the position of the 348th Brigade, the soldiers of both sides of the war raised their heads, and after seeing the planes flying from the east, a cheer suddenly sounded in the ranks of the Japanese troops, and the morale that had been a little depressed by the artillery bombardment also quickly began to rise, and many Japanese soldiers desperately waved the sunburst flag tied to their rifles and pointed forward to guide the fighters. Defeat the Chinese army in front of you.

Seeing the arrival of the Japanese planes, the air defense companies under the 577th Regiment also began to get nervous, and the muzzles of more than a dozen Bofors 20-mm anti-aircraft guns also began to shake higher

However, it is a pity that these Japanese planes did not bomb and strafe the infantry on the ground as the Japanese infantry had hoped, but continued to move forward to the planes, because they received an order to immediately destroy all the Chinese artillery deployed in the rear.

Captain He Yong, the commander of the 34th Flying Group, who was piloting a Type 99 twin-engine light explosive aircraft, looked at the ground troops below who were fighting fiercely and was silent, and the navigator and bombardier behind him, Zhou Fujun Cao, sighed: "It's a pity, if we can bomb them now, we can at least wipe out a third of these Chinese infantry, so that those red deer on the ground can easily defeat these Chinese people, no matter how stupid they are." ”

"Don't be so arbitrary!" Yamato Yuzo shook his head and said with a proud face: "Don't forget that our mission is to find the artillery positions of the Shina people and then destroy them. We're not the babysitters of those red deer, and if they can't even wipe out the infantry of the Chinese people, then is there still a need for the army to exist? ”

"Yo Xi, what the captain said makes sense!" Kushioka nodded in agreement, and the two machine gunners behind him laughed at the same time when they heard the two of them talking to China in the headset.

As he spoke, the navigator Kushioka Shufu suddenly pointed to a valley below and said, "Your Excellency, I saw that there was smoke and fire from the artillery firing in front, and the artillery position of the people of China was there. ”

"Yo Xi!" Yamato Yuzo nodded with satisfaction, "Kushioka-kun, immediately connect the channels of each machine!" ”

After the channel was connected, Yuzo Yamato immediately said: "Attention all planes, the direction of eighteen o'clock one kilometer away from us is the artillery position of the Chinese people, and the bombers are ready to bomb it in two batches, so be sure to blow up the artillery positions of the Chinese people!" ”

"Hay!"

Soon the first two Type 99 twin-engine light explosives immediately lowered their altitude and rushed towards the ground, and behind them were six Mitsubishi Type 93 bombers.

When they flew to the target less than 3,000 meters in the air, the anti-aircraft fire on the ground also opened fire, and one shell after another exploded in the sky, and the thick smoke of gunpowder dyed the blue sky a gray.

"Second Bombardment Squadron, you go around...... Go around and dodge the man's anti-aircraft artillery! The fighters began to fly low and attack, opening up a bombing channel for the bombers! ”

At an altitude of 6,000 meters, Yuzo Yamato watched the shells explode around the bomber, and his heart immediately hung in the air, and he kept commanding in the air.

The fact that there were a lot of anti-aircraft guns for the 202nd Army is no longer a secret in the Japanese army, so they also made countermeasures before the war.

In the face of the attack of the Japanese planes, the anti-aircraft artillery on the ground is not vegetarian, the first harvest is still the air defense battalion equipped with the M2 90 mm anti-aircraft gun, two shells exploded in the sky, enveloping a Mitsubishi 93 bomber inside, after the explosion, the bomber began to fall to the ground with black smoke all over its body, and after more than ten seconds, the bomber fell to the ground and turned into a fireball and exploded.

Seeing that the bomber was given a chance before he even had time to drop a bomb, Yuzo Yamato couldn't help but be furious: "Yaga, disperse...... All the units immediately dispersed, and the fighters stepped up their attacks to quickly open a passage! (To be continued.) )
