In a large mountain full three kilometers away from the position of the Japanese heavy artillery brigade, the special operations detachment has been lurking here for two days without moving. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The seventy mortars and thousands of shells that Yang Xingguo brought from the arsenal were all moved here by the special operations detachment.

Some people want to say that the strength of the Japanese heavy artillery brigade is not gathered around the three divisions. How could the special operations detachment send so many artillery pieces and shells here from under the noses of the Japanese army.

That's right, the Japanese did lay out one line of defense around the heavy artillery brigade. But those defensive lines are arranged on official roads, official cards, and plains where artillery can be walked.

As for the rugged mountains and forests where hunters could only walk, the Japanese troops on the periphery did not care at all.

In their opinion, even if they deploy heavy troops in these unguardable places, as long as the Liaodong Army is willing, they can still touch it. In addition, the three-kilometer radius around the heavy artillery brigade is a plain, and the three divisions and regiments have deployed a large number of troops, and even if someone touches it, it is impossible to touch the heavy artillery position. The Japanese army, who had this idea, didn't pay much attention to these mountains and forests, which were difficult for even people to walk through.

And the Japanese army did not expect at all that the Liaodong Army was already equipped with a very light artillery, which could be carried by people.

In their opinion, they could not walk through the mountains and forests of artillery at all, but the special operations detachment could easily carry them across the mountains and forests and lurk around their heavy artillery brigades.

However, even so, the special operations detachment could only lurk in the mountains three kilometers away from the heavy artillery brigade.

From here to the positions of the heavy artillery brigades are plains, full of Japanese positions and patrols, and it is almost impossible for a special operations detachment of more than a thousand people to quietly touch the effective range of mortars.

Therefore, after confirming and having no way to advance, Zhang Shanlin sent someone to report the situation to Yang Xingguo.

Yang Xingguo's recovery for him was very simple, just two sentences: "Continue to lurk and wait for the fighters!" ”

Zhang Shanlin, who was still familiar with Yang Xingguo, immediately realized that Commander Yang Xingguo would create a fighter plane for himself in the next time, and all he needed to do was wait and seize this fighter.

What Zhang Shanlin didn't know was that in order to create fighters for him, the Liaodong Army took out two heavy artillery regiments and two field artillery regiments at the expense.

"Detachment leader, the Japanese troops under the mountain are beginning to assemble!" Less than two hours after the end of an artillery battle that shocked Zhang Shanlin, a squadron leader who was out on reconnaissance brought such good news to himself.

"Continue to scout and see the specific movements of these Japanese troops! Report it immediately. Also, tell the other brothers to get ready for battle, everyone should have rested for the past two days, and it's time to go out for activities. Zhang Shanlin was happy, and ordered with an expectant face.

Soon, the squadron leader who went out to reconnoiter came again, and as soon as he rushed to Zhang Shanlin, he excitedly reported: "Detachment leader, the Japanese army under the mountain has been assembled and is heading for the direction of the main force, and only one infantry wing is left in the three divisions to protect the heavy artillery brigade!" ”

"It must be the commander, the fighter plane created for us by the commander is here!" The excited expression on Zhang Shanlin's face became even stronger, and he shouted loudly.

When it was over, he ordered very decisively: "Keep an eye on them, as soon as they are ten kilometers away from here, we will start moving!" ”

For the Japanese army who wanted to make dumplings for the Liaodong Army, speed and time were key.

Therefore, ten kilometers was only two hours for the Japanese troops who were on the road.

Looking at the empty Japanese positions at the foot of the mountain, Zhang Shanlin decisively gave the order to attack.

After quietly touching a place less than 800 meters away from the Japanese heavy artillery brigade, Zhang Shanlin left only two squadrons to erect and operate mortars, and the remaining eight squadrons all relied on the positions just left by the Japanese army to form a very tight defensive line around the mortar positions to protect all the shells brought by the mortar shooting.

Zhang Shanlin was very fortunate that when he came, the Japanese heavy artillery brigade also received an assembly order.

When he arranged the artillery position, the remaining 100 or so heavy guns of the Japanese heavy artillery brigade were all gathered together, and the remaining more than 3,000 gunners and ammunitionmen of the heavy artillery brigade were all concentrated around the heavy artillery, waiting for the brigade commander to give the order to march.

Zhang Shanlin, who had a full view of the battlefield situation, subconsciously flashed a sneer on his face, and decisively ordered the mortar to fire. Seventy mortars immediately fired shells at the Japanese at the fastest rate of fire of thirty shells per minute.

When the first round of 70 shells smashed around the heavy artillery, and the flying shell fragments harvested one or two hundred Japanese soldiers in the blink of an eye, the first reaction of most Japanese soldiers on the battlefield was to be stunned.

Just two seconds later, a second round of shells slammed down on them and exploded.

After more than 200 lives were taken away by the fragments of the shells, the remaining Japanese soldiers finally reacted, and began to disperse and transfer the surrounding artillery in the shouting and scolding of the officers around them.

If some other mountain and field artillery were attacking them, they might have time to divert the cannons that had already been mounted on their horses while the shelling was taking advantage of the interlude.

But they were met with mortars with a maximum rate of fire of thirty rounds per minute.

Round after round of shells, as if there were no intervals, they continued to explode around them.

In this case, if you transfer artillery, it is not an escape, it is a death in battle.

When they were under artillery fire, driving away the horses, and trying to pull the heavy artillery away from the shelling area, in just half a minute, the special operations detachment had already dropped more than 1,000 shells around them.

Under the harvest of fragments of these shells, at least 2,000 Japanese troops fell here.

Seeing that there were fewer and fewer subordinates around who could still move, and the shells fired by the enemy not only did not decrease, but became more and more dense. Officers large and small of the heavy artillery brigade finally realized that something was wrong.

Although it was not clear how the enemy had managed to keep the guns so fast, the officers decisively ordered the gunners to abandon the guns and disperse for concealment.

For the Japanese army, who was already a little panicked, he could run twenty meters in ten seconds. The mortars equipped by the special operations detachment can shoot five shells in ten seconds, and according to the lethality of a shell with a radius of eight meters, no matter how fast they run, they will not be able to escape the pursuit of death.

The entire shelling lasted only 100 seconds, and all the 3,500 shells brought by the special operations detachment were wiped out.

The two special operations squadrons, which acted as gunners, dropped the mortars whose barrels were already hot as soon as they ran out of shells, and rushed to the defensive line arranged by the main force of the detachment with their weapons on their shoulders.

By this time, a wing of the Japanese army's remaining heavy artillery brigade had already exchanged fire with the special operations detachment.

Although these Japanese soldiers were equipped with a lot of heavy machine guns, under the name of the snipers, the heavy machine guns not only failed to provide fire cover for the Japanese troops, but instead became the graves of a large number of Japanese soldiers.

The two snipers stared at the heavy machine guns, and all the Japanese soldiers who tried to get close to the heavy machine guns were all shot by the snipers, and many Japanese soldiers were directly shot in the head.

Under such a blow, more than a dozen machine-gun shooters immediately fell around the heavy machine gun.

Faced with this situation, everyone knows that getting close to a heavy machine gun is equivalent to death.

Therefore, in the ensuing battle, no matter how the officers threatened, the remaining Japanese troops did not dare to approach the heavy machine guns again.

Besides, no matter how well-trained the Japanese army is, there are not so many heavy machine gunners to consume. (To be continued.) )
