"Chief of Staff, you can think about it. If all our artillery is placed behind the position, it will automatically be sent into the range of the little devil's artillery. If they come and bomb at all costs, our artillery will be completely finished! Hu Xinghan yelled anxiously.

He used to be poor and afraid, from only Hanyang to start fighting devils, to capturing Japanese weapons, to later using German artillery, until now he has made artillery in his own arsenal.

Along the way, Hu Xinghan has suffered enough losses without heavy firepower. Every cannon was his life, and he couldn't let Gao Dong's mistakes ruin those cannons.

Gao Dong laughed and patted the old subordinate on the shoulder: "Old man, it's absolutely right to listen to me." Isn't it just more than 300 guns? It's just a gift for the little devil! We've seized so many things from the devils, so we have to spit out something, don't we? I can't bear the wolf, old man, you have to believe me. Without these more than 300 guns, I can get you back 3,000 guns in the future! ”

How can Hu Xinghan not believe Gao Dong, he is the army commander who Gao Dong has pulled up and witnessed all the achievements of Gao Dong. He doesn't believe that Gao Dong can trust anyone, it can be said that without Gao Dong, there would be no Hu Xinghan today.

But he was so distressed about the more than 300 artillery pieces, and said with a bitter face: "What you said is light, more than 300 artillery, you said to send it, if this is blown up by the little devil, how many of our hearts will be bleeding?" ”

Gao Dong's face suddenly became serious, and he glared at Hu Xinghan and said, "Commander Hu, now I am not bargaining with you, but giving you orders. Immediately mobilize all the artillery behind the position, and then bombard the devil's position. Execute the order, I don't want to hear any bargaining words anymore! ”

Hu Xinghan puffed up his chest suddenly, and although he was unwilling in his eyes, he still yelled: "Yes!" Hu Xinghan, carry out the order! ”

Gao Dong patted him on the shoulder and said sincerely: "Old Hu, a true hero is a true hero if you give and take." When you fight, you must not be a reckless man! ”

Under the indiscriminate bombardment of the Japanese army, all the artillery carried by the First Army this time was transported to the rear of the position. Previously, except for dozens of artillery pieces that were thrown on the road and deliberately blown up by devils, almost all artillery pieces of large and small calibers were concentrated here.

The artillery commander looked at the position of the devils two kilometers away with a telescope, turned his head to look at the artillery that had already formed a phalanx around him, and walked up and touched it in distress. He knew that once the artillery was exposed, it would inevitably become a key target for the enemy.

"Chief" An artillery company commander ran over, choked up and said, "Are we going to be abandoned?" ”

Holding back tears, the artillery commander kicked the man in the stomach and leg in the face, and shouted, "What a you!" The artillery of our first army will always ride on the head of the little devil and! Boom, boom, boom! Kill those dog-little devils! ”

"Boom"

Flags fell in the artillery, and all the artillery roared one after another. With all their rage, the runners smashed their shells into the Japanese positions.

The shells that staggered through the air flashed with dazzling brilliance, and on the Japanese position, the devils looked up at the whistling shells. Many people thought it was an illusion in their eyes, and they didn't believe that the PLA was firing at them until the shells hit.

Boom, boom, boom

Countless shells exploded in the rear of the Japanese forward positions, and the unprepared Japanese troops were blown up in scattered places, and the entire team was blown up in all directions.

The range of the PLA artillery was very long, and some of the shells even went all the way to the Chinese army where Gu Chengyong was. Two of the shells exploded near Gu Chengyong's headquarters, frightening a group of devil officers to lie on the ground.

"Damn, how can the artillery fire of the PLA blow so far? Our headquarters should be about seven kilometers away from their positions, how did they do it? Gu Chengyong was helped up by the guards, and his whole body was covered with loess.

"General, don't ask about this yet, let's quickly transfer the headquarters. If we delay, we're going to be blown up! One of his subordinates said urgently.

Just as he was talking, another round of shells exploded in the Chinese army, and there was the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling everywhere outside, and the devils ran around, looking for cover.

"Immediately transfer, transfer, transfer" Gu Chengyong yelled frantically, and under the protection of the guards, he led a large group of officers to rush out of the camp tent and rush in the direction of the rear army.

Only after withdrawing one kilometer can it be regarded as escaping from the range of the PLA's firepower. Gu Chengyong turned around and saw a large spark erupting from time to time in his army. Obviously, the artillery fire of the People's Liberation Army did not bomb a certain point in a fixed way, but bombed everywhere, destroying as much as it could.

"Damn, I observed before, their artillery can only bombard our forward positions at most, how can it be so far? What the hell is going on? Gu Cheng roared courageously: "Send someone to investigate immediately!" ”

Ten minutes later, the devil in charge of the investigation ran back, and as soon as he saw Gu Chengyong, he saluted and shouted: "Your Excellency General, it has been investigated." The PLA moved all their artillery forward to the rear of the forward positions, so that they could carry out the bombardment on us just now! ”

"Move artillery to forward positions?" When Gu Chengyong heard the news, he didn't know for a while whether to say that the People's Liberation Army was crazy or ecstatic.

He knew it was a great opportunity to seize. If the artillery of the People's Liberation Army can be eliminated in one fell swoop, then the next offensive will be completely in favor of the Japanese army, and it will be one-sided.

"What about our artillery? Where did our artillery die? Why did our artillery stop moving as soon as the PLA opened fire? Gu Cheng yelled anxiously.

"Report to Your Excellency General, our artillery unit suffered considerable losses during the PLA shelling because it was too close to the front line. The artillery has retreated as a whole to avoid being bombarded by the artillery fire of the People's Liberation Army! An officer immediately reported.

Gu Cheng's courageous eyes were about to pop out, and he almost roared like thunder: "Bastards, they are all a bunch of bastards!" The PLA dared to move all its artillery to the front line without fear of death, and our artillery would immediately retreat as soon as it was bombed? Are they still the Great Japanese Imperial Army? It's less daring than a dog! ”

"Tell them all to go back to where they came from!" Gu Chengyong yelled: "No, it's not the original place. Moving forward, the artillery as a whole moved forward. Give me to blow up the artillery positions of the PLA and blow them up"

Gu Chengyong's order was tantamount to an ultimatum to the artillery. The devil artillery, who had just been withdrawn from the front line, had to bite the bullet and continue to rush forward.

In the face of the fierce artillery fire of the People's Liberation Army, thousands of devil artillery transported artillery and advanced to the front line at a rapid pace.

Because the artillery is relatively large, there are constantly artillery destroyers along the way. But under Gu Chengyong's strong order, no one dared to take a step back, and they all rushed forward at the risk of death.

The more you move forward, the more intense the artillery bombardment becomes. The devils on the front line have already found a place to hide, and at this moment, only the devil's artillery is still advancing against death.

But the artillery of the First Army was limited after all, only more than 300 pieces. If you bomb a point intensively, the power caused is very great. But if they were scattered to bomb the entire Japanese front, the threat posed was naturally much smaller.

Under such circumstances, it took almost forty minutes for the artillery to finally fix the artillery position a kilometer behind their forward troops.

"Put"

The artillery that had just been fixed immediately launched a fierce bombardment of the First Army on the opposite side, and hundreds of artillery pieces frantically sent shells to the First Army in no particular order, and suddenly the direction of the First Army was again violently bombarded.

In this way, the two sides used artillery to stalemate, although the Japanese artillery was much better than before, and the power was much stronger. However, while the power has increased, the range has not been well improved.

So they could only bombard the positions of the First Army, at most extend a little back and bombard the front of the artillery positions, and could not completely suppress the artillery fire of the First Army.

Shells kept staggering through the air, and the positions of both sides were being bombarded with heavy firepower.

For a time, the Japanese offensive was contained, and it was impossible to launch an offensive against the First Army. And the First Army was happy to stay in their trenches, anyway, with bomb craters as cover, even if they were bombed for a day, they didn't care.

But Gu Chengyong was in a hurry, he knew that the PLA would definitely consolidate its position along the border, but now he couldn't move forward half a step, how could he not be in a hurry.

Just as he was about to command the artillery, continue to advance, and destroy the artillery of the People's Liberation Army. Suddenly there was a faint roar in the sky, like thousands of thunderbolts suddenly descending on the world.

"It's the plane, it's our plane"

"The Air Force, the Air Force planes are here to support us!"

From the direction of the rear army suddenly came the sound of cheers, wave after wave, sweeping forward like a frenzy.

Gu Chengyong also raised his head suddenly, only to see a large black "cloud" behind him rapidly approaching them. If you look closely, it was a formation of hundreds of planes, and in the blink of an eye, it flew over their heads and flew rapidly towards the position of the People's Liberation Army.

"Great, the Air Force is finally here, great!" Gu Chengyong stomped his feet excitedly and shouted: "Let all the troops be ready to charge, the trenches of the People's Liberation Army are definitely not very strong, and after the plane is bombed, it will definitely not be able to withstand our blows." As soon as the bombing is over, launch a full-scale attack! ”

At the same time, in the rear of the First Army, Gao Dong also looked up at the sky.

Japanese planes swooped down on the positions of the First Army whizzing, like hungry falcons, baring their fangs at the prey on the ground that could never escape.

"It's so good to come!" Gao Dong smiled and said: "Let the artillerymen retreat, leave those cannons, and let the devils blow them up slowly!" ”
