It turned out that it was the order of General Xue, the commander of the corps, to concentrate the artillery of all armies and divisions of the corps, whether it was old or miscellaneous, not to hide it, but to take it out and fight.

General Xue did not open artillery on the Japanese army before the infantry began to encircle and annihilate like the Japanese army did before the war, but first asked the death squad commando to press the Japanese formation into it before ordering the artillery to be fired.

After all, the Chinese army has fewer artillery shells and fewer shells, and it is not as rich as the Japanese army, and the Japanese army has a wide position.

Therefore, General Xue asked the troops to press the Japanese army in first and squeeze the number of Japanese troops together, so that the bombardment effect of the artillery would be much better.

However, there were two unfavorable factors for this, the first was that at night, it was not conducive to the positioning and firing of artillery, which required artillery observers to first measure all the main strongholds of the Japanese army.

The second unfavorable factor was that at night, their own people, especially these death squad commandos, kept drilling into the Japanese position, and although the Japanese army's position was compressed a lot, the Chinese and Japanese armies were wrong.

In this way, the situation of you having me and I having you was very unfavorable to the shelling, and if you accidentally hit your own people, many commanders of the artillery unit raised objections at that time.

But in the end, it was carried out in accordance with the orders of the Corps Headquarters, and it can only be said that the battle has reached this point, and it is no longer regarded as one's own people, and many brigade commanders and regiment commanders have personally gone into battle.

Even if there was no death order from the command to annihilate the 106th Division tomorrow, the First Corps would not be able to bear it, because the pressure from the Japanese reinforcements on the periphery was increasing.

The First Corps' troops, ammunition, food, and grass were on the verge of collapse.

Therefore, in the face of such a predicament, Chief Xue had to make this cold-blooded decision and insisted on ordering the artillery unit to concentrate shells to bombard some of the last strongholds of the Japanese army, regardless of whether it would hurt his own people.

Tzu is not in charge of the army.

Sacrifice at least in exchange for maximum victory, rather than protecting the lives of all soldiers with the kindness of a woman, will lead to the defeat of the overall situation, and more people will die in the end.

However, as veterans of these death squad commandos, all of them are thieves, as long as the first shot comes, most of them will quickly find a place to hide.

Unless there is really no way, they have already entered the important stronghold of the Japanese army and killed the devils, then it is possible to be blown up, but like the three dogs, they are very safe, and even very profitable.

After seeing that the Japanese bunkers and fortifications on Pengjiawan Mountain were bombarded by artillery, everyone was indeed very excited, especially the soldiers on the front line.

Maybe we modern people always think that this is normal, is it not to fight a war, isn't it just a cannon bombardment, but such a sentence that seems to be ordinary in modern times is simply the dream result of the front-line soldiers on the battlefield of the Anti-Japanese War.

When, after a lot of hardships, even in the attack on the fortified position, because there was no artillery, they took their bodies to withstand the enemy's fire bullets, died more than the comrades around them, and their own bodies were injured many times, they cherished the incomparable preciousness of this artillery all the more.

Sangou knew that there were not many artillery in the First Corps, and so were the shells, so he would not be able to fight for long, so he immediately led the death squad to the bottom of the mountain, and now he approached as soon as possible while the devil was blown up by artillery fire and did not dare to show his head.

Sure enough, all kinds of artillery fire of the Chinese army ended in less than half an hour, which was already the highest treatment for infantry on the battlefield.

Of course, it was not the three dogs that a death squad did this, many people did it, so the three mountains of Pengjiawan immediately stabbed like a hornet's nest, and a large number of Chinese soldiers flew up.

The battle with artillery support was simple and easy, and the three dogs went all the way up the mountain, only encountered a slight resistance, and most of the time it was smooth, all the way to the edge of the mountain.

It is estimated that the Japanese army did not expect the Chinese army to have such a fierce artillery coverage, and they did not expect it, they despised the Chinese army for not having planes and decent artillery, and in the construction of bunkers, they did not attach as much importance to the three dogs.

As a result, such contempt cost them their lives, and after this batch of artillery fire, most of the bunkers and fortifications on Pengjiawan Mountain were blown up, and the devils inside were either killed or buried inside.

When the three dogs rushed up, they found a lot of devils buried in the dirt, struggling to climb out, but before they could figure out what was going on, they were killed by the Chinese soldiers.

However, when the troops rushed to the edge of the mountaintop, they were suddenly stopped by the Japanese troops on the top of the mountain, and many machine guns fired wildly, and a large number of Chinese soldiers were killed.

Fortunately, the three dogs did not bear the brunt of the attack, and after hearing the gunfire in front, they immediately lay down on the hillside, and the devils on the top of the mountain probably hid on the anticline of the mountain during the shelling.

As soon as the shelling ended, these devils came out again, but they found that there were their own people on the mountainside, and it was inconvenient to open fire, but now the Chinese soldiers were almost killed to the top of the mountain, and the devils had to shoot to block the attack.

Without saying a word, the three dogs looked for the grenadiers, recruited Jinbao and Liu Kangnian to be the grenadiers, and were called over, and the two of them nested behind a dilapidated fortification, and began to fire grenades at the machine gun fire point of the devil on the top of the mountain.

It is indeed difficult to aim at night, but the grenadier is often based on its own feel, and the firing point at night looks more obvious, which is also good for the grenadier to fire.

After several adjustments, the grenade of the grenadier finally hit the devil's machine gun, and other death squads followed suit, and in less than a while, the machine gun fire point of the devil on the top of the mountain was basically cleared by the fixed point.

As soon as the machine guns are gone, there are some rifles left, and there is nothing to fear, especially this tidal wave of daredevils, the devil's riflemen have to start retreating.

This retreat announced that Pengjiawan's position had been taken, and the death squads had clear instructions before the battle, only responsible for attacking and pursuing, not responsible for cleaning up the battlefield.

In addition to capturing or picking up some weapons and ammunition to replenish, the rest of the work of cleaning up the battlefield was handed over to the main force behind him.

Therefore, although the riflemen of the Pengjiawan devils are fleeing, they still can't get rid of the increasing pursuers behind, and the devils must be running towards the next position of their own, chasing them to next a target, it must be right.

Sangou looked at this devil who fled all over the mountains, and his heart flashed at that time, thinking that it would be great if he brought a group of people to change into Japanese military uniforms, mixed in with the Japanese deserters, and mixed into the core position of the Japanese army.

But immediately another thought arose, and he vetoed his own idea, and in this chaotic situation, it was very dangerous to put on the uniform of the Japanese army.

It is easy to be killed by your own people as Japanese soldiers, and there is no unified caliber in advance, and no one knows that there are people who pretend to be Japanese soldiers, let alone any special markers.

Now everyone only recognizes the markers of military uniforms, steel helmets, and fart curtains, as long as they see people wearing such a person, they are devils, and they don't have the time to identify whether they are their own people.
