Okamura Ninji's bombardment of the city wall is indeed ruthless enough, although Yuichi Honma is still suppressed lying on the ground and can't raise his head, but the squadron is also suppressed in the bunker and can't get out, in a kind of Cheng dù, this is to save the Honma United.

This artillery bombardment is to buy time for the 9th Division, and after contacting the city wall, even if the squadron breaks out of the bunker, they will lose the advantage of taking advantage of the situation to sneak attack, and when the time comes, the two armies will win the battle against each other and will definitely be the 6th Army of the Imperial State.

Okamura Ninji thought so, and at the same time a satisfied smile appeared on his face, it was clear that the Japanese artillery was well-trained, and the shelling operation was carried out as if a skilled doctor was performing a surgical operation, and each cannon fell on the side of the inner wall of the Haxian city wall, and the explosion almost did not cause accidental damage to the Honma Wing.

But it was different for the squadron, the soldiers who rushed out at the beginning, many were killed and injured by shrapnel after the explosion, and many were injured by the shock wave of the explosion.

The Japanese army is getting closer and closer, Zhang Zhonglin is a little anxious in the bunker, if they don't rush out to gain the initiative on the battlefield, they are likely to be blocked in the bunker and caught in an urn by the Japanese army.

However, the Japanese army used the same artillery, and they could not use it with strength, and they were sent to death in vain when they rushed out, and now only the artillery can save the situation.

"Electricity, order the artillery, wait for the opportunity to shell the Japanese artillery positions."

The newspaper man didn't say half a word of nonsense, and without waiting for Zhang Zhonglin's voice to land, he slapped the telegram out ticking.

But people are full of doubts in their hearts, artillery is not clairvoyant, although artillery shooting is set to shoot Zhu Yuan, it can shoot and hit the target.

However, it is difficult to calibrate this kind of long-distance observation at the current level, and generally it is necessary to use guidance operations to obtain accurate firing numbers, which means that scouts must be sent deep into the local position to obtain accurate coordinates, and these coordinates must be transmitted back to the position, so that the artillery can accurately hit the target.

Zhang Zhonglin also had no bottom in his heart at the moment, although the artillery would send scouts to roam around the battlefield before the shelling, who could guarantee that the scouts near the Japanese artillery positions would not be wiped out by the Japanese army.

If the scouts were wiped out by the Japanese, even if there were countless shells in the Chinese artillery positions, it would be useless.

When the war came to this point, Cheng Dù and Qiē could only resign themselves to fate.

Time passed minute by minute, the attacking soldiers of the Japanese Ninth Division were getting closer and closer to the county city wall, I am afraid that it would take less than a quarter of an hour to attack the city wall, and it would be too late to do anything at that time.

Zhang Zhonglin's hands couldn't help but clench into fists, and his palms were full of cold sweat.

Although he has always been known for his calmness, now that it is a matter of life and death, and the lives of thousands of people are in the hands of others, he can't help but care.

……

In order to clearly understand the situation on the ruins of the city wall, he deliberately set up the temporary headquarters on the mountainside side of a small hill, so that it has both height and safety from being harassed by the opponent's artillery.

Because the location of this mountainside is the anti-slope of the squadron's artillery position, no matter how fierce the artillery fire is, it will not fall here.

Therefore, there will be no danger that the command will be terminated by the artillery of the squadron, which is also a lesson learned after the defeat in the last battle of Songhu, Okamura Ningji has obviously learned to be obedient.

As it turned out, Okamura Ninji really saved his life by doing so, and the Yamamoto wing he sent did not find and destroy the Chinese artillery in time, but the grenades of the Chinese artillery were accurately tilted on the Japanese artillery position.

The Japanese artillery was defenseless against this, and when the shells rained down like hailstones, everyone was dumbfounded, and many more were killed by the violent shock wave and the flying shrapnel before they could scream.

What is even more tragic is that several of the shells hit the ammunition boxes of the Japanese artillery positions, thus triggering the explosion, and the blow of the martyrdom to the Japanese artillery positions was fatal, and it was out of control, and the entire position was plunged into fire almost instantly, and there were few survivors.

Okamura Ninji was still surprised when he heard the successive explosions, the power of the 6th Army's howitzers was almost faster than the large-caliber naval guns of the Shanghai Army, and the whole earth was shaking like an earthquake.

Thinking of this, Okamura Ninji's mind froze, and he hurriedly walked out of the makeshift bunker and looked in the direction of the artillery position, only to see the flames and smoke rising into the sky.

His artillery was completely finished.

Okamura Ningji was dumbfounded, what trick did the artillery of the squadron use to end his artillery so accurately, cold sweat had already trickled down his forehead at this time, and he immediately realized that there were scouts from the squadron around here.

At the same time, he was secretly glad that he had not set up his headquarters on the same level ground as before.

The headquarters was halfway up the mountain, and even if the scouts of the squadron showed up where he was and calculated the exact coordinates, the Chinese artillery was helpless against him because of the anticline.

Even so, the morale of the Japanese army has been severely hit, and now he urgently needs to solve two things.

The first thing is to try his best to find the Chinese artillery and destroy it, and solve this shadowy ghost, so that his rear can be stabilized, and the front line will not be covered by firepower, and the second thing is to take this small county town as soon as possible, so that he can quickly maneuver to the 6 in Shandong, and try his best to echo and cooperate with the 1st Cavalry Brigade that came out earlier, and strike at the general of China.

In Okamura Ningji's view, even if it was hit more severely, the squadron had reached the end of the strong crossbow, and he would press his troops up in order to win the siege battle, although he paid a lot of price, but from a strategic point of view, it was the most critical part of the entire campaign to quickly win the liquid limit at any cost.

At the same time, the Japanese troops who feinted in the direction of Zhuqiao won a decisive victory, crushed the local defenders, and are now moving in the direction of Ye County, believing that they will arrive before sunrise tomorrow.

When the time comes, the two groups of men or horses will join forces, or echo each other, and advance one after another, while striking at the Chinese counties along the way, and at the same time quickly advancing in the direction of Jinan.

However, what Okamura Ninji didn't expect was that the combat effectiveness of the squadron was obviously beyond his estimates, and the shelling on the city wall finally stopped, and Yuichi Honma breathed a long sigh of relief, thinking that it was finally time to raise his eyebrows, but who knows, this is the beginning of his fall into the abyss of pain.
