124. Indiscriminate bombardment
"Commander, public opinion everywhere has exploded, isn't it too ...... this time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info”
There was a gloomy cloud in the staff headquarters.
The news from all over the country has been fed back to the Jicha Suihong District. But the situation was not optimistic, and even attracted criticism from the Workers' and Peasants' International.
But Qin Lang was still the same, just staring at the sand table in front of him, not knowing what he was thinking.
Long.
He asked coldly:
"Where the Mountain Brigade is now!"
The murmur of the staff immediately stopped, and the staff officer on duty stepped forward and said:
"Commander, the mountain brigade has advanced as planned, and it is fully operational tonight."
Qin Lang asked coldly again:
"What feedback do they have?"
No one in the room spoke.
"Click, click!"
Only the sound of the pendulum clock declares the passage of time.
At this moment, the air in the headquarters became more and more solemn, as if it was as cold as the air outside, and there would even be tearing pain when inhaled into the lung cavity.
But just when I was nervous, I heard a slight snoring.
"Whew!"
Qin Lang actually fell asleep.
"Commander...... actually fell asleep!"
All the staff officers' faces became embarrassed, and they all reached this juncture, Commander Qin could still sleep, this concentration is really difficult for ordinary people to reach.
"When, when, when!"
Suddenly, the pendulum clock made a loud noise, startling everyone.
"Let's get started!"
Qin Lang's eyes didn't open.
But his words, which were almost to himself, caused the entire command post to be in chaos.
The staff officer on duty grabbed the phone and shouted:
"Let's go!"
As soon as the words fell, I saw the night sky in the distance suddenly light up.
"Boom!"
A deafening bang was heard in the ears.
It's just that everyone hasn't had time to cover their ears, but they have made a disgraced face first.
"Plop la la!"
Dust was falling from the roof of the headquarters, and soon a thick layer was covering the table and floor.
"Boom!"
"Plop la la!"
Qin Lang shook his head and roared:
"Who built this bunker? Can you be more professional and bury me alive? ”
The staff officers next to him did not dare to speak.
Just three kilometers away, the Red Army has assembled nearly 300 artillery pieces, ranging from 150 to 77 mm, and is now desperately pouring shells on the enemy.
"Go out and have a look, save others the effort to plan!"
After Qin Lang finished speaking, he picked up the hanging military coat, put on a winter hat, and then walked out of the door of the command post.
"Boom!"
The crimson flames had set the sky ablaze, and now the low clouds were glowing bloody. The same is true of the Japanese positions in the distance, where red clouds rise from time to time, as if magma in the center of the earth is erupting.
"Commander, the Mountain Brigade has sent a message that it has arrived at the intended location and is waiting for further instructions."
Qin Lang nodded.
It's January 28th. That much-anticipated event has already erupted, but it will take some time to get it back.
"Commander, the news just sent back is that the base camp of the Japanese army has ordered that the soldiers in the townships of Goryeo and Northeast China must report to the nearby barracks within three days."
Taking advantage of the gloom of the past few days, the Japanese army transferred Anton's troops to Changchun, and reinforcements will soon come up. And the conscription of retired soldiers can add another 3 to 50,000 people, and with a little training, they can be put into battle.
"The situation seems to be getting tougher."
Qin Lang smiled coldly.
"Boom!"
The surrounding artillery seemed to read his anger, and burst into a thunderous roar.
The devil's position was completely ignited.
It was a little dark red at first, but slowly it became incandescent. With the cannonballs falling like meteors, the temperature kept rising. And the snow in the vicinity has melted and evaporated.
Qin Lang looked at all this expressionlessly.
The three devil divisions in front of them suffered heavy casualties in the recent battle. After getting some reinforcements, he recovered a little, but the offense was still powerless.
There were also considerable losses on the part of the Red Army.
In the battles since New Year's Day, four battalions have been defeated and three battalions have suffered heavy losses, which has forced two brigades to withdraw from the battlefield, which is already one-sixth of the entire Jichasui Red Army.
The special operations brigade, which was pinned to the perimeter of the enemy, also suffered heavy losses and had already lost half of its manpower.
All this shows that the Red Army has reached the end of its strong crossbow. If you don't retreat, you will face even greater danger.
"The best defense is offense."
The sentence that comes to mind is indeed a bit absolute, but it is indispensable to use it in the present.
The position of the 12th Division of the Japanese Army is exactly in the salient. Now it is flanked by the 462nd Battalion of the 116th Brigade, the 470th Brigade of the 118th Brigade, and the 473rd Battalion of the 119th Brigade.
The devil also knew that his position was unfavorable, and launched two more offensives to try to level the battle line. But their strength was equally weak, and they were finally blocked by death.
And only one wing of the 12th Division is still intact, and it is now frantically building defensive positions. They waited for reinforcements from two divisions to come up, and then pierced into Tongliao like nails.
In order to pull out this nail and use the wind and snow weather as a cover, Qin Lang secretly maneuvered most of the heavy artillery to the vicinity of Tongliao, and also prepared 140 tons of shells.
"Boom, boom!"
Artillery of various calibers is still roaring, and now it is not just the positions of the 12 divisions. Other devils were also bathed in the fire. Either it was reduced to ashes or torn to pieces.
"Commander, the 77mm gun is overheating and needs to stop firing!"
Qin Lang looked at his pocket watch, the artillery had been firing for nearly half an hour, although there was a certain interval, but it had also reached the limit.
There are only two types of guns, 105 and 150 mm, which are the latest designs, because the materials and processes have changed greatly, and the situation is much better.
"Squeak!"
The latch of a 150-mm gun was pulled open, and dense smoke grenades immediately came out.
But in an instant, a warhead was loaded into it.
"Hey!"
The two soldiers pushed with an iron chisel, and the shell was immediately loaded.
Wait until the cartridge is loaded.
"Bang!"
The bolt was then closed.
"Ready!"
The artillery commander, seeing a row of green lights, immediately shouted:
"Launch!"
"Boom!"
With a roar of thunder, the flames pushed the warhead and flew out. Bright flames were split to the sides by the brakes, and for a moment there was a scorching heat all around.
The massive cannon shrank back sharply, then it was reset, and the massive bolt was opened again.
In the middle of the cycle, one shell after another flew away.
The devil's position immediately emitted dense clouds of white smoke. But the flash that had been bright just now has now dimmed. Because that area is hidden in the thick smoke and dust.
At this moment, the east slowly showed a hint of yellow, and then it was replaced by silver white, and when the blue reappeared overhead, countless people looked at the sky in amazement.
"Buzz!"
In the morning light, a group of black "ants" appeared in the sky, and at first they crawled slowly. When approaching the top of the head, it becomes extremely fast.
"Buzz!"
Amid the deafening roar of the engine, a herringbone bomber squad appeared over the battlefield at a very low altitude, passing through the devil's position at high speed.
"Boom!"
The explosion seemed to ignite the air around it, and now half of the clouds were fiery red.
Seeing all this from the artillery mirror, Qin Lang said coldly:
"Keep the shelling, and when the time comes, let the 1st Guards Brigade attack!"
