In order to support the attacking 88th Division, Liu Hai arranged the artillery power, limited to 500 meters, and the three artillery battalions took turns to stop and provide artillery support to the attacking national army!

With the support of artillery fire at close range, the officers and men of the 88th Division bravely assaulted and broke through the Japanese defense line one after another, and when they advanced to 1,500 meters, the Japanese resistance became more and more stubborn, and the officers and men of the Nationalist Army were beaten back several times.

Liu Hai was about to push two guns to the close bombardment when gunfire came from the rear of the Japanese army.

"That's Staff Officer Liu's commando!" Liu Hai said excitedly to the commander of the 88th Division.

"It's good now, don't worry about his little devil not dying! Tell Guo Mingkai to get a battalion, rush again, and cooperate with Staff Officer Liu to break through the Japanese position! The commander of the 88th Division shouted excitedly.

Liu Hai looked at the battalion in front of him and howled again, the firepower of the Japanese army was significantly reduced, the commander of the first battalion, Guo Mingkai, personally held *, rushed to the Japanese fortifications, and quickly concealed after putting them, after a loud bang, the Japanese fortifications were blown up a big gap, the soldiers of the national army rushed in from the gap, after half an hour of fierce fighting, the Japanese defense line was broken again!

"Commander Liu, now that I have sent you to a position of two thousand meters, I am going to lead people to attack, and then it is up to you, our brothers are all pointing to your artillery support!" After the commander of the 88th Division finished speaking, he left a battalion to protect the artillery regiment of Liu Hai, and launched an attack on the left flank with the main force!

Liu Hai looked out with a telescope and ordered the telephone soldiers to quickly connect with the 78th Division of the 19th Route Army!

"Hey, is it Master Yu? I'm the artillery regiment bangs, I've now reached the position, please indicate the bombardment target for me! Bangs said.

"Liu Tuanzuo, you are finally in the position, the little devil is so pressed that I can't breathe, those bastards are now 1,200 meters in front of my position, you have to fight hard, let's cooperate with the infantry artillery, and we must not let the little devil's reinforcements pass through here!"

"No problem, Master Yu, my artillery fire will be there soon!" Bangs hung up the phone and ran to the cannon.

"Brothers, Master Yu has already indicated the goal for us, now what we have to do is to smash all the shells in our hands on the head of the little devil! At a distance of two thousand and one hundred meters, adjust the shooting Zhuyuan, and the shells are loaded! With the call of bangs, the artillerymen quickly began to move, and within a minute they were ready!

"Good! Ten rounds of rapid fire," Liu Hai shouted with the flag

"Fire!" Under the shout of Liu Hai, more than 30 cannons began to fire, and the shells cut through the air, rushing up like a sharp sword, and fiercely pierced into the Japanese offensive position!

"Commander, look!" A staff officer looked at the smoke and flames on the Japanese position and said excitedly to the division commander.

Division Commander Yu looked through the binoculars, the shells exploded like fireworks on the Japanese position, and the Japanese soldiers were running around dodging the shells, looking at Division Commander Yu for a while!

"Hahaha, little devil, you also have today, tell the third regiment, after the second round of shelling begins, launch a counterattack, exhaust the offensive force of little Japan for me, and see what else he can do to fight Lao Tzu!" After Division Commander Yu finished speaking, the staff officer said

"Division commander, our task is to block the attack, if we rashly launch an attack, what if the devil counterattacks?"

"Hmph, yesterday's attack of our 19th Route Army has driven the brigade of the little devil in front of us to the west, and now we have six brigades of the Japanese army in front of us, but there is no artillery, they want to go over from me, not to mention that we have artillery now, let alone him, counterattack!" Master Yu said

"This Commander Liu is worthy of being Liu Shencannon, and he is really accurate!" , the Japanese offensive position was littered with corpses, one and a half brigades of Japanese troops were disabled, and the Japanese offensive plan was completely disrupted by the artillery fire of Liu Hai!

"Commander Liu, you fought too well, what I want to tell you is, can you fight another round of artillery, and I will carry out a regimental counterattack against the little devil!" Master Yu said into the phone.

"Good! I'll be ready in fifteen minutes, and fifteen minutes later I'll be shelling again to cover your counterattack! The bangs immediately followed.

"Commander, our replenishment shells have arrived!" The commander of the first battalion ran over and wanted to report with bangs.

"Great!" Bangs hurriedly ran to the back.

"Captain Liu, I'm sorry, we're late!" Staff Officer Yu, who was in charge of logistics, saluted and said.

"You're welcome, Staff Officer Yu, it's not too late for you to come now, with this batch of shells, we can let go of the artillery fire to support Division Commander Yu!" Bangs hurriedly returned the salute.

"Well, I've unloaded the shells, please check with your people!" Said with the staff officer.

"First battalion commander, check the shells!" Bangs looked back and said.

"Regiment commander, it has been checked, a total of 6,000 shells, one is not less!" The commander of the first battalion said excitedly as he looked at so many shells.

"Good! Please sign for it! Staff Officer Yu took out a list and signed his name with Liu Hai neatly.

"Good! See you in victory! Staff Officer Yu said.

"Good!" Liu Hai sent off Staff Officer Yu and returned to give the order to prepare for the second round of shelling!

"Fire!"
