Qiao Anbang stood in a bunker in the forward position, holding a telescope aloft and watching the "performance" of the artillery battalion, from which the entire northwest corner of Suzhou City was covered by a sea of fire and billowing smoke.

In the deafening and violent explosions, from time to time, ghost soldiers and some bunker facilities were thrown high and down the city by the shock wave generated by the explosion.

Looking at the head of Suzhou City, Qiao Anbang, who had fallen into a sea of fire, couldn't help but have a sneer on the corner of his mouth, if it wasn't for the fact that time did not allow, the scale of his artillery and the power of his artillery would be even higher.

If Joan Bang is given enough time to develop, in less than a year, the Tiger Ben Regiment will have an incomparably powerful artillery unit and armored troops, and the 105 howitzer is just a transitional period for the artillery unit of the Tiger Ben Regiment, and in the future, Qiao Anbang will form a heavy artillery unit with a more powerful caliber and power.

In fact, in Europe and the United States, the caliber of 105 howitzers can only be regarded as medium artillery, and the caliber of 120, 150 and above is heavy artillery.

The power of the 105 howitzer and the 120, 150 and other heavy artillery are not at the same level at all, just like the 92 infantry guns and 105 howitzers of the devils now.

However, the 105 howitzer will not be eliminated by Qiao Anbang so quickly in the future, although the heavy artillery is powerful, but the mobile surname is not as good as the 105 howitzer, and in the future, the regiment-level and brigade-level combat units will be mainly equipped with 105-level 100mm caliber below the medium and light artillery.

Even if it is only a 105mm caliber howitzer, it is enough for the little devils in Suzhou City to bear.

Among the field troops of the Yue Army, 75mm caliber mountain artillery and field artillery and their more advanced Type 92 infantry guns are more common, and 100mm caliber artillery are regarded as heavy artillery by the Yue Army, and will only be equipped with the dispatched armies and corps in large-scale battles.

Therefore, when the 105 howitzers of the Tiger Regiment bombarded the fortifications of the city defense of the Yue Army for a while, the devils on the head of the city, from the commander to the ordinary soldiers, were already deeply shocked by the fierce artillery fire of the ** squadron outside the city.

With such a powerful artillery fire, even the imperial army itself did not have it.

Inside the city, it is called the army garrison headquarters.

Hatohiko, who had already sobered up, was pacing back and forth in the headquarters with an anxious face, listening to the increasingly dense and fierce shelling outside, and invisibly Hatohiko's brows became even tighter.

Suddenly, Chief of Staff Iizawa Mamoru Iezawa, who was sent by Hatohiko Asakanomiya to check the battle situation, quickly walked in and suddenly closed his feet and reported to him: "General, the Chinese army is carrying out a fierce artillery bombardment on the fortifications of our northwest city, and their artillery fire is very strong, and the imperial army has suffered heavy losses. ”

"Yaga, why didn't you order our artillery to return fire immediately?" Hatohiko Asakamiya asked with great anger.

"General Hui, I also called the artillery brigade, but they said that the artillery of the Chinese army outside the city was extremely powerful, and most importantly, the position of the artillery position of the Chinese army had exceeded the effective range of the imperial artillery, so the imperial army was unable to fight back!" Mamoru Iizawa hurriedly explained.

"Bagaya Road, could it be that my heroic Imperial Army can only be passively shelled?" Hatohiko of Asaka Palace roared with a blue face.

Iizawa Mamoru hurriedly bowed his head and persuaded: "General, please calm your anger, at most in half an hour, our aviation will be able to arrive, as long as the aviation arrives, we will be able to bomb the artillery positions of the Chinese army and completely destroy them." ”

"Yo Xi, Iizawa-kun, immediately send another urgent telegram to the Aviation Command, urging them to come to reinforcements quickly." Hatohiko nodded and commanded.

"Hay!" Mamoru Iizawa suddenly bowed his head in response, and was about to turn around and leave, but at this moment, the continuous roaring and earth-shattering shelling suddenly stopped, and then a loud roar and shouting of killing suddenly sounded outside the city.

"The people of Shina have begun to attack..."Hatohiko walked out of the headquarters with a shocked face, and looked towards the source of the shouting and killing, and then Huo Ran pulled out his command knife and roared: "Order all troops to meet the attack with all their might, kill the ...... of Quack"

………………….

Outside the city, thousands of soldiers of the third battalion jumped up one after another, lined up in a line of scattered soldiers, and rushed towards the dusty and smokey city of Suzhou.

Li Yifeng, the commander of the third battalion, and the deputy battalion commander personally put on the battle, and led the soldiers to rush forward with light machine guns.

At the same time, the officers and men of the 2nd Battalion in the southeast also took advantage of the situation to attack the devils in order to respond to the 3rd Battalion.

"Kill! In the midst of a deafening roar, dozens of officers and men of the first company and second platoon of the third battalion took the lead in rushing to the foot of Suzhou City, and when they were less than 150 meters away from the city wall, the remnants of the devils in the city suddenly opened fire.

The two crooked handles spat frantically with the cooperation of more than a dozen rifles, and several fighters were shot and fell to the ground before they could dodge.

Seeing this, Niu Er, the platoon commander of the second platoon, was dumbfounded, raised his submachine gun and swept at the devil, and the other soldiers also shot back, although the soldiers were equipped with advanced equipment and had strong firepower.

But the devils hid behind cover, and the dense bullets did little to threaten them. In the fierce fire, several more fighters were hit by the vicious bullets and fell in pools of blood.

"Grenadier ... Kill those two dog-sturdy machine guns for Lao Tzu! Niu Er turned around and opened his throat and roared.

Several grenadiers who followed up hurriedly fired several grenades at the city, and with a few loud bangs, several devil infantry were blown up and fell from the city.

The fire flashed, and the two crooked light machine guns that were cowering in the bunker stopped for less than a moment and began to roar again, at the same time, the city was crowded, and it was obvious that the devil reinforcements in the city had been reinforced, and the dense rain of bullets poured down on the heads of the officers and soldiers of the second platoon again.

Because the devil is shooting condescendingly, there is almost no shooting blind spot at such a close distance, and the soldiers of the Tiger Ben Regiment who are charging have nowhere to hide, so they can only continue to charge forward without fear of death.

Seeing that the collapse of the small section of the city wall that was bombarded by the artillery battalion was close at hand, but the troops could not rush up, Niu Er suddenly scolded: "Grenadiers, I'm bombing Lao Tzu, hurry!" Heavy fire suppression, fast! ”

However, as soon as several grenadiers wanted to fire grenades again, the devil infantry on the city wall pointed their guns at them, and a distance of more than 100 meters was for a well-trained devil, and any one of them could do a hundred shots.

After a few crisp gunshots, which were heard in the midst of the dense gunfire and shouts of killing, several grenadiers of the second platoon were hit one after another and fell.

Several grenadiers have always been regarded as the treasure of the whole platoon by Niu Er, they can provide the most rapid and effective fire support to the soldiers at the most critical time, seeing several grenadiers died one after another, Niu Er couldn't help but be angry: "The little devil of the dog, lie down to your grandma!" ”

However, what made Niu Er and the soldiers even more angry was still to come, just when Niu Er led the second platoon of officers and soldiers to risk their lives to break through the devil's firepower, and they were about to rush into the collapse of the city wall, when suddenly a hot tongue of fire roared from the collapse.

"Damn, the devil's heavy machine gun, hidden..." Niu Er hurriedly rolled around and hid in a crater when he heard the change in color, and the dense bullets almost whistled past his back, "Puff..." hit several soldiers who followed later.

Niu Er was grief-stricken to see his subordinates being shot and falling into the crater, but the dull roar of the Type 92 heavy machine gun above his head continued.

Lying in the crater, Niu Er witnessed the soldiers of the second platoon falling to the ground one after another, and hot tears poured out of the man's eyes.

At this moment, a piercing scream sounded from the top of Niu Er's head, and when he looked up, a grenade had already whizzed down, and there was a loud "boom", and the crater where Niu Er was hiding was suddenly covered by firelight.

A ghost grenadier on the city wall smiled smugly.

At the headquarters of the third battalion, Qiao Anbang was smoking anxiously, and there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the headquarters, and suddenly a captain and company commander stumbled in, and said to Qiao Anbang very frustratedly: "Tuanza!" The brothers' attack was blocked, and the companies suffered heavy losses! ”

Hearing this, Qiao Anbang's heart couldn't help but tremble slightly, and then he said coldly: "Tell your battalion commander, attack with all your strength at all costs!" ”

"Yes!" The captain and company commander immediately stood up and immediately strode away.

Seeing the captain and company commander leaving, Qiao Anbang just wanted to turn his head, but suddenly, a shrill roar sounded faintly outside, Qiao Anbang heard the sound and said with an awe-inspiring expression: "Not good!" This is the ...... of the plane"

After speaking, Qiao Anbang suddenly turned his head and shouted: "Gensheng, bring the guard company and follow me!" ”
