In the western suburbs of Qinghe County, the artillery position of the Baoshan Brigade.

Under the night sky, the 75 Mountain Cannon, the 92nd Infantry Cannon, the Battle Defense Artillery and the Mortar had already taken off their camouflage, revealing their hideous fangs, and the muzzles of the black holes were all aimed at the garrison of the Yue army thousands of meters away.

The army never imagined that Niu Dagen's artillery battalion would dare to build an artillery position under their noses.

Niu Dagen's artillery battalion is now much more spacious than before, and in terms of equipment, it is actually an artillery regiment: it has a total of 1 combat defense artillery company and 4 37mm combat defense guns; a field artillery battery, 4 75mm field guns; 3 mortar batteries, 24 mortars; 3 infantry artillery batteries, 12 Type 92 infantry guns.

Of course, these cannons were captured equipment.

What made Niu Dagen a little unhappy was that there were not many shells for all kinds of artillery.

The most abundant artillery shells are 12 92 infantry guns, which have six bases, and the least is 4 battle defense guns, not even half of the base, and what is even worse is that these shells have run out and there is no place to replenish them, the little devil is not a fool, and he will not transport precious shells to the Baoshan brigade.

Therefore, Niu Dagen now dreams that the Baoshan Brigade can have its own arsenal.

The scale of this arsenal does not require it to be too large, nor does it require it to be able to produce artillery, as long as it can be reloaded with shells, in this way, even if his artillery battalion still can't mix a few meals, he doesn't have to starve all the time.

Niu Dagen was thinking, two recruits struggled to carry a box of shells and put it next to a Type 92 infantry gun, one of the recruits also curiously picked up a shell from the box, looked at it over and over for a long time, and wondered: "Strange, what kind of shell is this, why haven't you seen it before?" ”

"Don't move, put the cannonball back for Lao Tzu."

Niu Dagen looked back and saw it, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

This thing is not an ordinary cannonball, but a real mustard gas bomb, if a lot of hearts trigger the fuse, it will kill people, mustard gas is highly poisonous, as long as a small amount is inhaled, it is enough to kill! If you accidentally let the venom splashed in the shell directly contact your body, you will festered and die in a short time!

This thing is a big murder weapon, and it's also a killer weapon to use against the imp tonight.

However, it is a pity that Niu Dagen's artillery battalion now has a total of more than 200 poison gas bombs, and it was not easy for the special operations brigade to capture them from the Qinghe County arsenal under the Qinghe County seat.

…………

A few kilometers away, the Segawa Brigade was stationed.

Yoshida Fengtaro walked into Segawa Shiro's field command tent with a solemn expression, and said uprightly: "General, the artillery brigade has less than half of the artillery shells left, the medicine carried by the health team has been used up, and the infantry brigades have been fighting fiercely with the Shina Army for nine days and nights, and the officers and soldiers have reached the limit in both mental and physical strength. ”

Segawa Shiro was silent, and reason told him that he should withdraw decisively now!

However, as a proud Emperor Ben [***], Segawa Shiro was very reluctant to retreat to Shijiazhuang in disgrace, and the well-equipped and well-trained Reading Power mixed with the 8th Brigade was actually defeated by a group of untrained and poorly equipped rabble, such a result was unacceptable to Segawa Shiro in any case.

"General, give the order to retreat?" Yoshida Minetaro bowed his head abruptly and said sincerely.

"Yaga." Shiro Segawa was furious, and was about to reprimand Yoshida Minetaro when there was a terrible scream of cannonballs sweeping across the sky from outside the tent.

As soon as they heard this voice, Shiro Segawa and Minetaro Yoshida suddenly changed their faces.

Ninety-two infantry artillery! And it's also an artillery group, and the number is definitely more than ten!

The 92 infantry gun is a light infantry support artillery, the height is only 1 meter, the weight is only 400 pounds, can fire 70mm caliber grenades or chemical bombs, for the permanent fortifications of reinforced concrete structures, the 92 infantry artillery does not pose any threat, but for the hastily constructed field fortifications, the 92 infantry artillery is enough to pose a mortal threat!

Suddenly, a terrible scream fell straight towards Segawa Shiro's command tent.

"General, be careful!" Yoshida Minetaro was taken aback suddenly, and rushed forward, throwing Segawa Shiro to the ground, the dazzling red light flashed, and then there was a loud "boom", Segawa Shiro's field command tent was immediately lifted into the air, and was immediately torn into pieces by the huge air wave.

Without waiting for the smoke to dissipate, Shiro Segawa and Totaro Yoshida quickly turned over and sat up.

When the two of them looked up again, they saw that the entire sky was already covered with cannonball streamers with long tail flames, and the streamers immediately dragged and pierced screams one after another on the heads of the 8th Brigade of Reading Power Mix, and immediately a dazzling explosion burst up, and the originally dark night sky was illuminated as bright as day in an instant.

"No, it can't be, it's impossible!" Yoshida Fengtaro said in disbelief, "How is it possible for the Shina Army to have an artillery group of such a size?" ”

Shiro Segawa was also full of disbelief.

Looking at the momentum of this artillery bombardment, the artillery of the Baoshan Brigade also has dozens of infantry guns, curved guns and even field artillery!

What is particularly unbelievable is that the artillery quality of the Baoshan Brigade is even higher than that of the artillery of the Segawa Brigade, and their first round of artillery bombardment accurately killed the headquarters of Segawa Shiro, and the second round of shelling hit the artillery position of the Segawa Brigade, and the twelve infantry guns of the 8th Artillery Brigade of Reading Force were immediately blown into the sky.

Suddenly, a strange cannonball screamed in the sky.

"Yagayalu." Yoshida Minetaro changed his face and said, "Gas bomb!? ”

"What! Gas bombs!? Segawa Shiro suddenly had no trace of blood on his face, and immediately gritted his teeth and said, "These despicable and shameless Shina pigs dare to use chemical weapons in flagrant violation of international conventions, shame, it is simply a shame for soldiers, and it is said that this empire should accuse them to the League of Nations, accuse them!" ”

This little devil is really shameless enough, he turned a blind eye to the fact that the army used chemical weapons so many times on the battlefield in China, and [***] in turn used chemical weapons on the Chinese battlefield, and he clamored to complain to the League of Nations, but if you really want to talk about it, this is actually normal, weak countries have never had diplomacy, and "justice" is always in the hands of strong countries.

"Command!" Segawa Shiro looked up to the sky and roared, "The baggage squad quickly issued gas masks!" ”

"Orderly!" Yoshida Minetaro also roared, "Gas mask, drip!" ”

The gas mask is the standard equipment of the army, but because it is easy to be damaged, it is usually handed over to the baggage team to carry, and it is only issued to the infantry team when it is needed, which is not careless, but because the gas bomb is almost a unique weapon of the army, and the scientific research ability of the national political axe is extremely weak, and it is impossible to develop anti-personnel gas bombs, and there is almost no artillery [***], so there is no need to carry a gas mask with you in peacetime.

Soon, Yoshida Minetaro's orderlies received gas masks from the baggage brigade.

Yoshida Minetaro and Segawa Shiro put on gas masks, took a deep breath of oxygen, and the disgust in their chests was suddenly alleviated, and when they looked at it again, Yoshida Osa's orderly had already foamed at the mouth and collapsed, and immediately stretched out his hands to choke his throat, his face was full of pain, and then he quickly fell silent.

Half an hour later, the shelling of the artillery battalion directly under the Baoshan Brigade finally ended, and an infantry force of about 2,000 people wearing gas masks appeared on the outskirts of the garrison.

An infantry soldier struggled to get up, and when he was trying to shoot, two sharp bayonets had mercilessly pierced his back, followed by several stabs, and the entire back of the infantry was immediately stabbed into a blood sieve, and the infantry only twitched twice, and then fell silent.

A second lieutenant of the army sat up, and the oncoming Chinese soldier raised his hand with a shot, right in the center of the second lieutenant's eyebrows, and the second lieutenant of the army did not say a word, and fell to the ground, black blood mixed with white foam gushed from the corners of his mouth, and the ground under him was dyed red in an instant, and soon, the eyes of the young man of the army became empty.

A [***] second lieutenant stepped on the corpse of the second lieutenant of the Japanese army, and poked a bayonet in the vest of the second lieutenant!

Behind the second lieutenant, dozens of [***] soldiers wearing gas masks and carrying bright bayonets searched and followed, and when they met the devil soldiers lying on the ground, whether they were dead or alive, they came forward with a bayonet!

As far as the eye can see, the entire station is full of smoke, the fire is raging, the visibility is less than ten meters, thousands of devil soldiers are foaming at the mouth, lying on the ground, most of them have fallen into a severe coma, and occasionally a few are awake, and they are quickly given results by the [***] search team.

…………

Qinghe County, Baoshan Brigade Department.

Liu Yi hurriedly entered the war room and said to Yue Weihan: "Brigade seat, the Sechuan Brigade is finished!" ”

Yue Weihan's face sank like water, and he did not feel the slightest excitement and pride because of the total annihilation of the Sechuan brigade.

Originally, with more than 6,000 elite veterans of the Baoshan Brigade and more than 30,000 rabble, and the big killer weapon of poisonous gas bombs, if the Segawa Brigade could not be quickly annihilated, then the Baoshan Brigade would not be the Baoshan Brigade.

"Brigade, the gas bomb is really powerful!" Liu Yi said with palpitations, "No wonder we suffered such a big loss during the Battle of Songhu, the Battle of Nanjing and the Battle of Xuzhou, this thing is indeed a very evil surname!" There were five or six thousand little devils, but when more than 200 poison gas bombs were thrown into it, they basically lost their combat effectiveness, and the battle was won...... It's a no-brainer! ”

Speaking of this, Liu Yi said regretfully: "It's a pity, the artillery battalion has run out of gas bombs, and we can't produce this thing ourselves, if our artillery can have enough gas bombs, wouldn't it be much easier to deal with the little devils?" When the time comes, not to mention Shijiazhuang, it is not impossible to take Baoding or even Beiping. ”

"Gas bombs aren't as powerful as you say." Yue Weihan waved his hand and said coldly, "If the little devil is on guard and sends the gas mask to the infantry team in advance, we will have no matter how many poison gas bombs we have, in the same way, as long as we are on guard in advance, the little devil's gas bombs will not be able to cause us much harm." ”
