Chapter 52: The Mysterious Eye

It's just that the firing and use of artillery is not a very easy thing to learn. Fastest update access: щщщ.79XS.сОΜ. It's not a rifle, and you can figure out how to pull the bolt and load it in a few minutes. 'Groping' on your own. Expecting Li Ziyuan to grow up quickly in such a short period of time is basically impossible.

It is already very good to be able to 'grope' how to stuff a cannonball into the bore and how to shoot it out in such a short period of time without guidance. As for the 'precision' and other adjustments to the 'shooting' realm, as well as the use of artillery tactics, it is impossible to demand too much from him.

Although he regarded these two 'guns' infantry guns as flat 'shooting' artillery, the 'precision' of the two 'guns' was still 180 miles behind. Originally, he was aiming at the fortifications outside the big 'gate' of the pseudo-garrison headquarters, but as a result, the landing points of the two guns hit the wall.

Fortunately, he aimed directly at the breech and could only use the tactic of flat 'shooting'. Although the 'precision' was 108,000 miles behind, it was not too outrageous, and it did not hurt the civilian houses around the puppet garrison headquarters, and the two shells basically exploded on the wall of the puppet garrison headquarters.

Although the 92 infantry cannon is a small cannon, this guy still has a certain amount of power. The building of the pseudo-garrison team site is strong, but it can't withstand the bombardment of two shells. In addition, Li Ziyuan can't 'fiddle' with any 'medicine', let alone distinguish the types of shells. Both shells were grenades that were fired with the maximum amount of "charge", and this power can be imagined.

These two cannons not only opened two big 'doors' directly on the wall of the puppet garrison headquarters, but also scared the puppet army inside. They are naturally not afraid of the absolute advantage in firepower and a strong courtyard wall to rely on, but it is another thing to have artillery on this earth eight road.

Especially when the gunfire on the Japanese side has subsided, the puppet army inside is really frightened by these two cannons. Originally, I wanted to rely on the power of my master to buy time for the arrival of reinforcements from outside the town as much as possible. As a result, it's good now, and the dirt eight roads in front of him actually ate the always strong Japanese first.

The silence of the gunfire on the Japanese side made these puppet soldiers obviously lack the confidence to be direct, but they only relied on inertia to resist before. But Li Ziyuan missed these two cannons, and these puppet troops completely lost the will to resist. Especially when I saw that a few Tubalu were still tinkering with the two '92 infantry guns', I was very planning to continue to practice by myself.

There is no way, the Japanese can't count on it, and now the artillery of the imperial army has fallen into the hands of Tubalu. The first two cannons missed, but the shells below may not miss. In case the shell really falls on his head, he will not be able to put together the parts of the corpse when his family collects it.

Everyone is this puppet army scolded by thousands of people, just to earn a salary to support their families. Under the threat of artillery fire, the determination of these puppet troops to fight to the death is not great. Now that there are cannons and machine guns on the Tuba Road, there is no need to defend them.

The puppet army, which was completely disarmed by Li Ziyuan's two cannons, finally chose to disarm and surrender. And after these puppet troops surrendered, the gunfire in the entire Pingchuan town also completely subsided. However, he was locked as the first target by Li Ziyuan, but at this moment, he was summoned to the county seat for a meeting by Luo Hekanshiro, but Wang Tieshi, who was not in Pingchuan, escaped a catastrophe.

didn't catch this guy, which greatly reduced Li Ziyuan's interest. But he also knew that it was precisely because Wang Tieshi was not there, and under the threat of his two missed shells, those puppet troops would surrender. If Wang Tieshi is here, coupled with his hardcore henchmen, and this guy's control of the puppet garrison, I'm afraid these puppet soldiers won't surrender their guns if they are killed.

When the time comes, the course of the battle will be greatly affected. Just because you didn't catch him this time doesn't mean you won't have a chance next time. Anyway, I don't know how long I will stay in Hubei, and the opportunity to 'deal' with this Wang Tieshi is not this time, and the fighter will be found in the future.

However, Li Ziyuan, who also knew that Pingchuan Town was not a place to stay for a long time, immediately took the prisoners and took the booty and quickly retreated eastward. There were a lot of ammunition and weapons seized, and Li Ziyuan's own troops naturally couldn't carry them. So he removed the bolts of all the small arms and let the spoils of war be carried by the puppet army.

But Li Ziyuan, who was busy retreating, didn't know that when he gathered his troops and prisoners, and quickly cleaned up the battlefield. On the roof of a house not far from the headquarters of the puppet garrison brigade in Pingchuan Town, a pair of mysterious eyes were lying on the roof and secretly observing them.

After withdrawing from the town from the east, in addition to letting Chandford's second squadron take a part of the puppet army to pick up Zeng Sheng, Li Ziyuan himself ran directly to Wang Tieshi's mysterious ancestral tomb. After arriving there, Li Ziyuan was not polite at all. He personally held a barge gun with a wide open nose and asked them to fire at the head of the puppet artilleryman.

However, the puppet army team guarding Wang Tieshi's ancestral tomb is Wang Tieshi's most hardcore and most confidant team. Not only is the equipment extremely 'fine', but they are also his confidants. In the face of Li Ziyuan's attack, relying on this sturdy cemetery building, the resistance was quite tenacious.

Although in addition to Li Ziyuan's muzzle threat, the shells fired by the puppet army's artillery basically fell into the fortifications of the garrison puppet army. But this puppet army did not lay down its arms, but hid in the fortifications and continued to resist. It wasn't until Li Ziyuan personally led a small team to detour up from the flank and rear and attack from behind that the resistance of this puppet army was cleared.

After defeating the resistance of the puppet army, Li Ziyuan asked the puppet artillery to set up mortars in front of Wang Tieshi's ancestral grave, and used the searchlight on the turret on the east side of Pingchuan as illumination, and used artillery fire to support Zeng Sheng. And a few captured 'Ting' heavy machine guns also opened fire on the spot to block the counterattack of the puppet army to Zeng Sheng's department.

The addition of the team led by Li Ziyuan made the puppet army, which was originally in a stalemate with Zeng Sheng's department, suffer a big loss all of a sudden. The mortar shells that came in pieces made these puppet soldiers who were attacking with their lives under the supervision of the Japanese army almost immediately crushed. The heavy machine-gun fire from the flanks also knocked it down in pieces.

As the company commander of the main company of the divisional backbone regiment, Zeng Sheng was not given for nothing. After receiving fire support from Li Ziyuan from the flank, he immediately commanded two platoons to launch a counterattack. After dealing with the dozen or so Japanese soldiers who supervised the battle, the puppet army, which could not withstand the two-sided firepower, simply surrendered.

The end of the battle in the hilly area east of Pingchuan Town means that the battle for Pingchuan Town has been completely completed. The entire Pingchuan Town, like a ripe peach, fell into Li Ziyuan's hands. A large number of weapons and equipment, as well as ammunition and ammunition, as well as explosives re-transferred by the Japanese army, became Li Ziyuan's trophies.

In this battle, Li Ziyuan's troops lost nine people and thirteen were wounded. The price of fifteen sacrifices and thirteen wounded. Destroy a full infantry squad of the Japanese army, plus a squad of dissatisfied formations, an infantry artillery squad. Defeated and captured two squadrons of the puppet garrison brigade.

In total, more than 60 Japanese troops were wiped out, and more than 200 puppet soldiers were annihilated and captured. looked at the puppet army squatting on the ground, and there were weapons and ammunition piled up all over the place. After the results were counted, even Li Ziyuan himself was a little unconvinced. He didn't expect that in this battle, he would actually solve more than 60 Japanese troops under the condition that the strength of the troops was almost equal.

Although there were twenty artillerymen without guns inside, the devil's artillerymen picked up their guns and went there no worse than the infantry. Moreover, Li Ziyuan's original plan was to sneak attack and transfer the Japanese puppet army in Qiaokou to finish. As a result, he didn't expect that Qiaokou and the Japanese puppet army that fell off the horse never dispatched, but took the entire Pingchuan Town by himself.

After quickly judging the next plan in his mind, Li Ziyuan still decided to retreat immediately. Although he knew that the Japanese puppet army in Hubei County was no longer 'fine' to estimate Pingchuan Town. The sound of gunfire faintly sounded in the north and west at this time, indicating that the main force's sabotage operation on the Baijin Railway had been fully launched.

Although I don't know how many troops will be dispatched in this large-scale raid on the Baijin Railway organized by the higher authorities. But Li Ziyuan vaguely felt that since the superiors had decided to pull out their teeth, this force would definitely not be in the minority. Now that the main direction has also started, it means that there will be an earth-shattering situation along the Baijin Railway.

I'm afraid that the Japanese puppet army in Hubei County doesn't have the 'spirit' strength to take care of Pingchuan Town at all. You must know that Luo Hekanshiro's army defense area is not just a Hubei County. He was fighting in Pingchuan Town, and the Japanese puppet army in Hubei County has not reacted and dispatched so far, which is enough to explain the problem.

Of course, it may also be that the Japanese puppet army fortified the strongholds of Pingchuan, Luoma, and Qiaokou, which were deep into the mountainous area east of Hubei, and were too confident to be dispatched immediately. But in any case, the Japanese puppet army in Hubei County can't use it for the time being. But the Japanese puppet army in Qiaokou and Luoma must take certain precautions, and don't steal the 'chicken' when the time comes.

After meeting with Zeng Sheng, Li Ziyuan immediately 'explained' his next plan to them. Zeng Sheng also knew that this was not a place to stay for a long time, so he immediately arranged for the troops to prepare for retreat. But Chang Juan and Shi Jin quickly returned to Pingchuan Town with a team.

Li Ziyuan only cared about cleaning up the battlefield and arranging for the troops to prepare for the transfer, there were some things he didn't think of, but Chang Juan, as an instructor, couldn't think of it. At present, the weather has gradually begun to heat up, and the matter of changing the equipment of the troops has not yet been settled. There is almost no shortage of salt and other supplies in the mountains.

As the captain, Li Ziyuan didn't take these into account, but Chang Juan couldn't help but think about it. Pingchuan Town is the base camp of the Japanese puppet army to control the eastern mountainous area of Hubei, where there are not only military warehouses, but also a transit place for civilian materials from the Shangdang Basin to the Taihang Mountains since ancient times. Now that Li Ziyuan has taken here, it is still possible to solve part of the army's material needs.

Seeing Chang Juan returning to Pingchuan with Shi Jin, Li Ziyuan, who understood her intentions after thinking about it for a while, didn't stop her. After all, *** is still wearing a cotton coat, and no one can stand it if they change. So apart from arranging Guan Li to send someone to protect Chang Juan, he didn't say anything.

But also 'handover' to the present, the action must be fast. and asked Guan Li to 'hand' over all the military salaries captured from the puppet garrison and the puppet army to Chang Juan this month. In addition, he 'handed over' Shi Jin, and the Japanese military camp could still be cleaned to see if something could be made.
