The captain frowned at the two-meter-high barrier, but he was smart enough to immediately report the situation to the captain.

After the captain of the Japanese army got the situation, he immediately came to the front line to reconnoiter the situation and saw that the slopes around Naozhai Mountain had been flattened and became a barrier more than two meters high.

Looking at the heights of his subordinates around him, he knew that it would be difficult for his subordinates to climb the barrier more than two meters high.

He thought about it for a moment and immediately asked the devil soldiers to take out the sapper shovels, and he was going to shovel out a slope so that the infantry could climb up the hill along the slope.

After all, after capturing the position of Naozhai Mountain in a while, they still have to cover the artillery to go up the mountain, so sooner or later this barrier will have to shovel out a slope.

More than 100 devil soldiers took out sapper shovels, and under the orders of Captain Nakasa, they quickly came to the fortress to start earthwork.

The devil soldiers were busy wielding sapper shovels, but the soldiers on the Naozhai Mountain position were ready to welcome the devil soldiers.

Wang Tieniu, the commander of the sixth platoon, was holding a Czech light machine gun, if it weren't for Liu Xi's repeated emphasis that he was not allowed to attack without an order, Wang Tieniu would have rushed out long ago.

"Platoon leader, the little devil is digging underneath, should we give them a look."

A squad leader came to Wang Tieniu, who was holding a grenade in his hand and had a playful smile on his face.

Wang Tieniu's personality is very impulsive, and after seeing the grenade, he couldn't help grinning, and an excited expression appeared on his face.

The Japanese troops were actively digging in preparation to shovel out a slope, and sneaking over at this time to throw grenades would definitely bring great losses to the Japanese army.

The squad leader's words reminded Wang Tieniu that he was a very impulsive character, and Wang Tieniu immediately asked his soldiers to prepare grenades.

But just when the soldiers of the sixth platoon were about to rush out, Liu Xi, the commander of the second company, arrived.

Liu Xi saw that the sixth platoon was preparing to attack, and he rushed over in time to stop it.

Sun Weiguo's order to Liu Xi was to hold Naozhai Mountain to cover the artillery troops, and Liu Xi did not dare to be careless.

It was Liu Xi's strategy to create a barrier of more than two meters under the mountain, and with such a barrier, he could delay the Japanese army for more time.

Now take the initiative to fight with the Japanese army, this is a very irrational approach, Liu Xi will not do this.

The three grenadier squads of the second company have been gathered together by Liu Xi, and nine grenadiers have begun to be erected.

The loaders had already begun to put the miniature grenades in the barrels, and the squad leaders of the grenadier squad looked at Liu Xi.

Liu Xi waved his right hand vigorously, and the three squad leaders immediately gave the order to shoot.

Miniature grenades were fired from the grenadiers, and then the miniature grenades began to land down the mountain.

The devil soldiers were digging hard, and when they heard the sound, they realized that there were grenadiers on the mountain.

The devil soldiers began to dodge, but their movements were still a step slower.

Miniature grenades exploded around the Devil Soldiers, and one of the Devil Soldiers began to fall to the ground.

The ghost soldiers who were hit by shrapnel and killed on the spot died on the spot, and the ghost soldiers who did not hit the vital point screamed in pain.

Nine grenadiers fired more than 30 rounds of miniature grenades, causing dozens of casualties among the devil soldiers, and the grenadiers stopped firing and they began to shift their positions.

The artillery squad directly under the 1st Brigade of the 1st Infantry Wing immediately began to fire grenade shots, and the two infantry guns fired grenade shots one after another towards the mountain.

Fortunately, the grenadier was transferred quickly, and the firing of the infantry artillery did not bring any losses to the grenadier squad.

At the same time, the machine gun squadron directly under the 1st Brigade also began to set up machine gun positions, and four of the twelve heavy machine guns began to shoot wildly.

A dense barrage of bullets came towards the position, and under the cover of heavy machine guns and infantry artillery, the devil soldiers quickly escorted the wounded to the rear.

The sudden attack of the grenadiers caused more than sixty casualties, of which more than forty were killed on the spot.

The squadron responsible for shoveling out the slope lost an infantry squad, and the captain squadron leader also hung the prize, and he was hit by shrapnel in the arm.

The two infantry guns were still firing, in retaliation for the grenadier attack.

More than 30 artillerymen worked hard to hit the mountain with grenade shots, but these artillerymen were completely unaware of the impending danger.

The artillery battalion was the first to come to Naozhai Mountain under the leadership of the battalion commander Shi, and after coming to Naozhai Mountain, Shi ordered the artillery battalion to set up an anti-slope artillery position.

At this time, Li Jiaxin's first artillery company and Zheng Jingjing's second artillery company had already set up artillery positions on the anticline.

The so-called anti-slope artillery position is an artillery position set up on a hillside with its back to the attacking Japanese army, so that the artillery shells fired by the Japanese army rarely threaten the artillery.

The Japanese army attacked Naozhai Mountain from the north, so the anti-slope position of the artillery battalion was set up in the south of Naozhai Mountain.

Both companies of the artillery battalion had artillery observers at the top of the hill, and they had telephones directly connected to the artillery company headquarters.

After the Japanese heavy machine guns and infantry guns were fired, the artillery observers used the artillery mirrors to quickly measure the specific positions of the Japanese heavy machine guns and infantry guns.

After a telephone report, the commander of the 1st Artillery Company ordered the troops to immediately enter the combat state, and the six 41 mountain guns began to quickly adjust the angle.

The anti-personnel grenades were quickly loaded, the squad leaders quickly reported, and the platoon leaders began to report the situation.

When Li Jiaxin heard the three platoons report that the reloading was completed, he immediately began to give the order to shoot.

Six mountain guns roared at the same time, and six anti-personnel grenades were fired at the same time.

By this time the two Japanese infantry guns had stopped firing, and they realized that the grenadiers on the hill seemed to have been transferred.

The Japanese squad leader held a telescope to observe the situation, but at this moment, two shells fell from the sky.

Before the artillerymen could dodge, the anti-personnel grenade exploded quickly, and an infantry gun happened to be hit by an anti-personnel grenade.

As the explosion sounded, shrapnel flew everywhere, and the Japanese artillerymen began to wail in pain.

This infantry gun was blown up on the spot, and although the other one was not blown up, the shells fell aside, causing all the artillerymen around the infantry gun to be affected by the explosion.

Dozens of Japanese artillerymen suffered heavy casualties, and the wounded artillerymen screamed in pain, and they quickly crawled to the side.

The rest of the Japanese army saw that the Eighth Route Army in Naozhai Mountain was actually using mountain artillery to shoot, their faces were full of shocked expressions, and they quickly lay on the ground.

The heavy machine guns also immediately stopped firing, and the shooters quickly lifted the crane guns to transfer.

But before they could take a few steps, four anti-personnel grenades quickly landed on the heavy machine gun position.

"Boom, boom, boom......" An explosion sounded, and four heavy machine guns that had just been lifted fell to the ground.

Machine gun shooters, sub-shooters, ammunition men, and other ghost soldiers all fell to the ground.

Li Jiaxin's first artillery company has been tested in battle, and their hit rate is as high as 90 percent or more.
