Chapter 732: The shelling continues

readx;?“ Just send a telegram back to Gao Jun according to what I just meant, and add another sentence, in the second regiment's blocking battle, the guard battalion's counterattack was good, and the main force of the third regiment can completely learn from the guard battalion and give the devil a fatal attack at the critical moment. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info" Li Zhilong ordered with a categorical face.

When the telegram arrived in Gao Jun's hands, the headquarters of the 11th Division had already been transferred to the position of the 3rd Regiment.

As soon as he saw Li Zhilong's callback, Gao Jun brought the commander of the third regiment over and asked, "Have the two lines of defense been repaired?" There is no connection with a traffic trench. There is also anti-artillery d, which does not withstand continuous shell bombardment. ”

After receiving an affirmative answer from the commander of the third regiment, Gao Jun continued to order: "Two lines of defense are not enough, strive to build another line of defense in the back, and also use traffic trenches to connect them." Anti-artillery D should also be repaired, but not too much, as long as it can hide a company. If time permits, it would be nice to have two more lines of defense. ”

The third regiment commander was stunned for a moment, and then replied with a bitter face: "Division commander, the reconnaissance platoon reports, the devil is only half an hour's journey here, and half an hour to repair the trench is not enough?" ”

Gao Jun's brows furrowed, and he immediately ordered: "Then find a way to buy time?" ”

"Chief of Staff. You gather all the scouts of the three regiments, cooperate with the reconnaissance of the division headquarters and set off immediately with mines, go to the front to disturb the devils, and at least give the main force an hour. Let the reconnaissance company bring more mines, s disturb the devils, mines are a good thing. ”

As soon as the chief of staff left, Gao Jun continued to order: "An hour should be enough!" The 3rd Regiment was responsible for the third line of defense, and the 1st and 2nd Regiment's mobile troops and units directly under the division headquarters were responsible for the fourth line of defense. ”

"All the artillery of the whole division should be mobilized, all the artillery bombardments on the battlefield should be calculated, and after the battle begins, it must be guaranteed to be fired wherever it is pointed. In addition, all the shells from the stock and the military headquarters were moved to the artillery positions, and all the shells were exhausted, so as to teach the devils an unprecedented lesson. ”

The scouts are all elites eliminated by the special operations detachment, and with the cooperation of mines, there will definitely be no problem with the sluggish devil for an hour.

The 1st and 2nd Regiments, despite their heavy losses, especially the 2nd Regiment, were almost completely wiped out. However, the intact soldiers of the two regiments were all put together, and there were still 1,500 people. In addition, the guard battalion and the baggage battalion directly under the division headquarters have no problem digging a trench in an hour.

Therefore, when the main force of the devils carried by Dashan Yan entered Gao Jun's field of vision all the way with murderous energy, the four lines of defense had all been repaired.

Because of the lessons learned from the last attack, Dashanyan has also made small changes in the next attack.

The same brigade launched an attack on the Liaodong Army defense line under the cover of a large number of mortars, heavy machine guns, and even grenadiers. However, the artillery that provided artillery cover in the back, Dashanyan specially explained, as long as the attacking troops killed the first-line positions of the Liaodong Army, the mortars would immediately move and shell the second line of defense of the Liaodong Army that might appear behind, covering the infantry to continue to assault forward.

In a word, mortars should also be like grenadiers, constantly attacking with the attacking troops.

As soon as the infantry of a brigade appeared on the battlefield, sixty mortars equipped with the 12th Division began to fire shells at them.

Soon, a violent explosion began to harvest life among the devils.

As soon as the mortars of the 12th Division opened fire, the devil's artillery position, where more than 100 mortars had been assembled, also sounded a dull shelling sound.

More than 100 shells with a screaming sound smashed steadily into the first line of defense of the three regiments and exploded, and then exploded one after another fireballs mixed with a large amount of black smoke.

What Da Shanyan didn't expect was that there was no one on the surface of the first line of defense that he had consumed a lot of artillery shells, and even the anti-artillery D was only the strength of a company of the Liaodong Army.

When the devils withstood artillery fire and attacked the front-line positions with empty troops under the cover of more than a hundred mortars. The mountain and field artillery of the 12th Division moved.

Mountain artillery shells with a piercing screech, because the artillery had divided this place into areas long before the devils came, and then calculated the accurate s-strike yuan. Thirty-six shells seemed to have eyes, and all of them smashed into the devil's artillery position.

In an instant, more than a dozen mortars were covered by artillery fire and then dismembered into the most primitive parts.

"Baga, how can the Liaodong Army have so many mountain artillery, their artillery is more than just now!" Da Shanyan's face changed, and he frowned and asked the chief of staff beside him.

The chief of staff next to him also frowned, staring at the battlefield with a telescope, not knowing how to answer.

At this moment, a series of even more piercing screams sounded above everyone's heads, and they were getting closer and closer.

"It's not good, it's a field artillery, the shells are flying towards us, everyone hide quickly!" An exclamation came from the mouth of a nearby commander of a heavy artillery brigade.

As soon as the words were spoken, a group of officers, including Dashan Yan, moved around under the cover of their respective guards.

As soon as they left, a violent explosion sounded around them, and some devil officers who were relatively close to the explosion point were thrown to the ground by the mutation guards before they could react, and they had a close contact with the earth.

It wasn't until the field artillery regiment fired three rounds of shells that Dashan Yan withdrew to a safe point under the protection of the guards.

Before he could catch his breath, a brigade commander who followed him shouted: "Commander-in-chief, the Liaodong Army has at least one field artillery regiment, which is obviously aimed at our main force. ”

Seeing the corpses of the soldiers who had fallen to the ground in the area covered by the artillery fire of the Liaodong Army, Dashanyan immediately ordered the troops to retreat.

It didn't matter if this retreat, the main force left hundreds of corpses, and as soon as it withdrew from the field artillery range, the field artillery regiment adjusted the muzzle and began to cover the devil artillery positions with artillery fire.

More than a hundred mortars, despite the constant transfer, could not withstand the combined strike of so many mountain and field artillery.

In order to preserve strength, the devil artillery suffered heavy losses, and it was only possible to constantly transfer artillery.

In this way, the so-called cover artillery fire of the devils has become sparse.

This is, the devils who are attacking under artillery fire have already rushed to a position three or four hundred meters away from the position.

Although the offensive formation of the devils was very scattered, they were completely exposed to the artillery fire of the Liaodong Army, and the artillery shelled was all mortars with fast S speed. On the five or six hundred meter attack road, they had seven or eight hundred corpses!

That's not all, when the mortars continued to fire shells at them, because the devil's cover artillery fire was less, a company that stayed in the position had already drilled out of the artillery position, and from time to time a bullet was fired at the devil.

Of course, the devils who keep attacking are not vegetarians, and they will suppress the positions of the Liaodong Army with fire at every opportunity.

In this case, the remaining troops on the positions also began to suffer casualties. (To be continued.) )
