Thank you for the monthly pass of PML5339

The Japanese attacked as soon as the sound of the artillery stopped, and from the top of the position, the mountains were full of approaching earthy yellow, as if there was only one color in the world.

When these mighty and unstoppable earthy yellow charged forward, they finally met their opponents, and the earthy yellow figure began to fall continuously.

But the continuous fall of these earthy yellow figures did not stop the pace of other earthy yellow figures, and these soldiers resolutely carried out the orders above: charge!

In the face of such a move, the firepower in the direction of the position of Jiuliancheng also began to increase continuously, and the more these Japanese soldiers rushed forward, the greater the casualties they received, but in the huge charging team, these soldiers continued to crawl down at a distance of about seventy or eighty meters from the position.

As the Japanese approached the position and crawled down, the defenders on Duan Qirui's side had to divide their firepower, partly to deal with the prostrate Japanese soldiers, and partly to blockade the path of the Japanese charge behind them.

However, because part of the defenders' firepower was used to deal with the Japanese soldiers who were crawling down not far from the position, the previous fire blockade was naturally much reduced.

A steady stream of Japanese soldiers passed through Duan Qirui's fire blockade line, and even though the price was extremely huge, these Japanese soldiers still slowly but firmly crossed the fire blockade and continued to move towards Duan Qirui's position.

Duan Qirui, who was already in the front-line field command at this moment, naturally saw this scene, but at this moment, Duan Qirui's face did not see the nervousness of the Japanese army approaching the position, so it seems that Duan Qirui must have prepared his back hand early.

"Pass my order and let the gunners in the city launch a two-base artillery bombardment."

The advantage of this thing is that it is simple and standardized, which is convenient for calculation, supply, memorization, and secrecy, for troop command and support, for the issuance of military orders, instructions, and other documents by superiors, and for the ordnance departments at all levels to calculate the quantity of ammunition and report the degree of ammunition support.

In fact, at the beginning, Wang Bin did not think of the word base, and it was not until later that Wang Bin learned about the difficulties of the statistical department in counting arms, and Wang Bin thought of the word base.

Therefore, Wang Bin made a provision on the base number, which is 120 rounds for rifles and 200 rounds for machine guns

12 shells.

In this way, when Wang Bin counted the ammunition and issued the order, he began to use the word base for the number of ammunition, which improved the secrecy a lot.

Who knows what the word base represents, and even if he does, he doesn't know what the ammunition of a base is.

"My lord, I don't know if it's a mortar or an artillery?" The herald on the side asked.

There were mortars and seven-five artillery guns arranged in the Nine Company City, and the herald didn't know that Duan Qirui wanted that kind of artillery to fire at the Japanese army.

"Well, this time the attack did not involve mortars." Duan Qirui said to the herald.

Mortars are regarded as a miracle soldier by Duan Qirui, and the current situation is not very critical, and mortars are not needed for the time being.

Duan Qirui's order quickly spread to the Nine Lian City, and Wu Peifu, who was in charge of the artillery, also immediately let the artillery make its own voice.

After the artillery adjusted the elevation angle and firing range of the artillery, bursts of artillery suddenly sounded in the Jiulian City, and the shells whistled past and landed on the positions on the front line.

As soon as the cannonball fell, Duan Qirui picked up the clairvoyant mirror in his hand and looked at the front of the position.

The artillery attack was quite effective, and the round of artillery coverage suddenly relieved the pressure on the defenders on the front line, and the Japanese frenzied offensive was temporarily stopped because of the artillery attack, and began to evade the artillery attack instead.

In fact, although the artillery attack this time dealt a blow to Duan Qirui's attack, it did not achieve the result he wanted.

After seeing the rate of fire of mortars, Duan Qirui was a little disgusted with this medium-caliber artillery, of course, it was not that he hated this kind of artillery, but that he was disgusted by the lack of power with the rate of fire of this artillery.

The rate of fire of the mortar is about ten times faster than that of the 75 artillery, but fortunately, the range of the 75 gun is much faster than that of the small-caliber mortar.

Mortars are completely compensating for the lack of power with extremely fast rate of fire, but relatively fast artillery rate of fire can cause huge losses in places.

A base artillery attack was placed on top of the seven-and-five-life artillery, and it took five minutes to complete, but in those five minutes it was enough time for the defenders on the front line to adjust their firepower.

Under Duan Qirui's order, the defenders on the front line began to use some light machine guns to increase the density of fire, and at this moment, the Japanese troops who had just finished dodging the artillery attack felt that the defenders' firepower began to become dense.

However, the attacking soldiers did not pay attention at all, after all, their side was already approaching the position of the defender, and it would be a very strange thing if the firepower remained strong.

In the rear of these Japanese soldiers, Limi Shangwen was really angry at the useless artillery at the moment, and in Limi Shangwen's original plan, he hoped to use intensive artillery attacks to consume the defenders on Duan Qirui's side at the beginning.

For this point, the artillery did it, and Shan Sili saw that Shang Wen did not see the advantage won because of the early artillery strike, and then the artillery of Duan Qirui's side was powerful, but in the eyes of Li Jian Shangwen, it seemed that it immediately stabilized the battle situation on the front line and suppressed the offensive of his side.

So Tatsumi Shangwen began to ask the artillery to suppress the local artillery, but the answer given by the artillery made Tatsumi Shangwen extremely angry.

The artillerymen even said that they could not judge that the local artillery was fired from that specific direction, and only knew that it was fired from inside the Jiulian City, but they did not know the specific location and could not suppress the fire.

After the artillery's answer was sent, Immediately saw that Shangwen didn't seem to have caused much damage to Duan Qirui's position in combination with the previous morning's artillery attack, and felt more and more that the artillery seemed to be redundant in this attack.

In desperation, he immediately saw that Shang Wen no longer asked the artillery to suppress the enemy's artillery, but to carry out artillery attacks on the positions defended by Duan Qirui. (To be continued.) )
