As the first heavy artillery battalion of the Liaodong Army, the Liaodong Army attaches great importance to it from top to bottom. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Therefore, dozens of gunners in the battalion were carefully selected by the regiment commander Zhong Hu from the whole regiment. In terms of firing artillery, there were no problems at all.

After entering the artillery position, which had already been built for the most part, dozens of gunners and logistics personnel quickly dragged one heavy artillery gun after another to the throwing position. Subsequently, the maneuvering of artillery for maneuvering artillery, the carrying of artillery shells.

As for Tang Quanyou, the commander of the heavy artillery battalion, he rushed to the ambush position two miles away and received the task from Xiao Bing......

"Battalion Commander Tang, I want to know how long it takes for the Japanese heavy artillery to counterattack from being hit by artillery fire when they are on the march!" As soon as Tang Quanyou walked into the temporary headquarters, Xiao Bing asked with a nervous face.

Tang Quanyou thought for a while and replied: "The Japanese artillery are all veterans who have been trained for more than a year, and they must be faster than us...... Ten minutes, it will take ten minutes before and after, and the Japanese artillery will be able to repair the temporary artillery positions and counterattack us......"

"Ten minutes is enough...... Commander Xiao said with a sigh of relief.

Then, he continued to ask Tang Quanyou: "What about your heavy artillery battalion, how long does it take from retreating to withdrawing from the heavy artillery position?" ”

"Five minutes ......" This time, Tang Quanyou replied without thinking about it.

"That's ......," Xiao Bing quickly replied, and ordered to Tang Quanyou.

"Battalion Commander Tang, my idea is that after the Japanese attacking troops come here, you will shell this section of the official road. The Japanese offensive formation is a kilometer long, or even more than that, and the heavy artillery battalion should be able to hit the ......"

"Three minutes, after three minutes of shelling of the Japanese army, quickly withdraw from the position......"

"When the time comes, I will give you nearly a thousand recruits from the garrison regiment and ask them to help you retreat, is there any problem......

Tang Quanyou replied confidently: "There is no problem at all......

In the battle yesterday, the troops lost more than 600 people without knowing anything, which made the Japanese wing commander Sakai Daisa very unhappy. At the same time, it also gave Sakai Osa a new understanding of his opponent Liaodong Army.

After a night of recuperation without any harassment, the morale of the Japanese army recovered considerably from the low morale of the successive attacks.

But. Sakai Osa has become much more cautious.

In Sakai's opinion, the next attack would rather be slower than give the Liaodong Army any chance to attack.

So, there were three squadrons left in the engineering wing. From beginning to end, the road was built in the range of fire support of the main force.

As for the artillery and baggage, they were tightly wrapped in it by more than 3,000 Japanese reinforcements, and there were more than 5,000 Japanese troops, directly hugging each other, like a huge chariot, crushing towards Liaozhong little by little.

Soon, two hours passed, and the Japanese troops who were huddled together did not receive a single attack.

Just when Sakai Daisa's nervous heart finally relaxed, thinking that his way of marching had worked.

The screech of shells across the sky. From far and near, it suddenly reached his ears.

At first, he was still wondering how there could be a screeching of cannonballs here.

However, as the scream got closer and closer to him, the sound grew louder and louder.

Sakai Daisa, who was on the battlefield, immediately realized that something was wrong.

These shells, with a screeching sound of breaking through the air, were obviously smashing towards their own location.

As a result, Sakai Daisa's face quickly became frightened at this moment.

While subconsciously lying on the ground, he shouted loudly: "Shelling." Hide ...... quickly."

"Woooooooooo......oo Boom Boom Boom ......" The hidden order was just shouted out by Sakai Daisa, and a series of violent explosions sounded on the official road not far away.

Of the twelve heavy artillery shells, only three hit the official road.

However, because the power of the heavy artillery shells was too great, the formation of the subordinates on the official road was very dense. After the three shells exploded, twenty or thirty people were killed on the spot, and more than a dozen people were wounded, lying on the ground and screaming.

The sudden heavy artillery strike stunned all the Japanese.

When they reacted from the shock, they wanted to leave the official road. By the time they were scattered and hidden, the second round of twelve shells had already whizzed.

Another series of violent explosions sounded, and twelve shells fell into the crowd because of the dispersal of the Japanese troops, setting off twelve blood flowers.

This time, although the Japanese army was scattered, because every shell produced results, the final result was that more than 40 devils were killed or wounded and lost their combat effectiveness.

In the blink of an eye, the troops lost nearly 100 people.

And until now, he didn't even see the shadow of the enemy, so he died in such an unknown way.

Escorted by the guards, Sakai Daisa, who temporarily found a safe spot, can be said to be both angry and aggrieved.

At this moment, the artillery staff officer of the wing ran over and reported: "Sir, it's heavy artillery, the artillery that shelled us is heavy artillery, and the heavy artillery of a whole brigade is ...... four kilometers away"

The wing commander, who was holding back his anger, subconsciously ordered: "Since you already know the location of the heavy artillery position of the Liaodong Army, what are you still doing?" Don't you immediately organize our heavy artillery brigade to counterattack......"

The artillery staff hurriedly took the order.

At this moment, the chief of staff of the wing on the side suddenly reminded: "Wing leader, as far as I know, there is only one heavy artillery battalion in the Liaodong Army. For the safety of the heavy artillery battalion, they will definitely send heavy troops to protect ......"

"Now that this heavy artillery battalion is around us, the main force of the Liaodong Army left behind in the five counties of Liaozhong must also be here."

"If we send troops now, there is an eighty percent chance of finding them and dragging the remaining troops of the Liaodong Army on the battlefield......"

"You know, heavy artillery is not ordinary artillery, and if you say transfer, you can transfer. Even if the Liaodong Army is diverted by our heavy counterattack, our attacking troops will be able to catch up with them in a short time......"

Sakai Daisa was very impressed by this proposal, but in order to avoid yesterday's losses, he still said with a cautious face.

"Even if the remaining troops of the Liaodong Army are around the artillery, they must be prepared."

"What should we do if we are ambushed by the Liaodong Army again?"

The chief of staff hurriedly analyzed: "The wing commander is too worried, the reason why we suffered heavy losses yesterday is because we don't know the Liaodong Army, and we also suffered the loss of the division of troops......

"As long as we maintain the speed of pursuit during the pursuit, the troops are not divided. Even if we encounter an ambush by the Liaodong Army, our pursuing troops can drag the enemy at the minimum cost. When the main force arrives, they will be wiped out by internal and external attacks......"

"Yo Sai ......" Hearing this, Sakai Osa finally put his mind at ease.

Facing the chief of staff in front of him, he ordered: "The second brigade, the first two squadrons of the baggage wing, and the heavy machine gun squadron of the first brigade, immediately attack, attack and advance to the heavy artillery positions of the Liaodong Army, and destroy the heavy artillery units of the Liaodong Army......"

"The wing commander is wise, with such fierce firepower, the remaining troops of the Liaodong Army are all on the top, and they are not the opponents of our pursuing troops......"

When the Japanese heavy artillery brigade began to arrange artillery positions, the heavy artillery battalion of the Liaodong Army, which fired 72 shells at the Japanese army in a row, was already preparing to retreat under the command of Tang Quanyou.

As for Xiao Bing, he led two battalions of more than 1,000 Liaodong Army, quietly lurking on the mountain beam where the ambush circle was located, quietly waiting for the arrival of the Japanese pursuing troops. (To be continued.) )
