Unlike mortars, mountain artillery is more than twice as powerful.

What's more, mountain artillery can not only kill, but also destroy positions.

Four mountain artillery shells smashed down, and the two heavy machine gun positions that the devils had worked so hard to repair were directly blown away.

The powerful lethality within a radius of ten meters blew up more than a dozen devil infantry around him.

Then these four mountain cannons fired at the devil's alert position as if the shells didn't cost money.

It is said that it is a position, but in fact, it is a devil lying behind the top of the slope, relying on the terrain to conceal and shoot, and there is no trench to hide.

The mountain artillery shells smashed down, one hit at a time, and even if they didn't hit directly, they could affect the nearby devils.

At this time, even if the devil light and heavy machine gunner constantly shifts the machine gun position, it is useless.

The mountain artillery shells that fall from the sky are not aimed at a fixed place, and whichever devil is unlucky, which person will become the next target of the mountain artillery.

"Sir, we don't have a trench, we can't withstand the mountain artillery bombardment at all, the losses of the troops are too great, we have casualties every time the shell is smashed, and now the loss of more than 30 soldiers in the mountain artillery is over, and there are four light and heavy machine guns!"

The squadron leader was helpless, watching a heavy machine gun being blown away by a shell, and there was no solution except for being in a hurry!

"No, this is simply passive beating, slaughter! You can't fight like this anymore, you are here to command, resist the attack of the Eighth Route Army. I'll go to the captain, this situation must change, otherwise the Eighth Route Army only needs to blow us all with shells! ”

Qinggang Zhongzuo's face was very ugly, and the sudden exposure of the mountain artillery squadron of the new regiment made him even more sure that the Eighth Route Army was attacking him.

The power of mountain artillery is very powerful, even in the field troops of the Imperial Army, only the troops of the size of a wing will be deployed.

The reason why the imperial army was able to match the battlefield and kill the Chinese army was that the mountain artillery played a very large role.

And now, this powerful heavy weapon is in the hands of the enemy, and the enemy is attacking himself with it.

As soon as Qinggang Zhongzuo, whose face was gloomy, calmed down, a tragic picture of his subordinates being blown away by mountain artillery and blurring flesh and blood appeared in his mind.

"Sir, this battle can't be fought like this anymore, this is not a battle at all, it is a massacre!" The squadron leader rushed over with a face full of gunpowder smoke and cried out in pain.

"I have a reinforced squadron, plus the alert troops, more than 200 people, and I lost more than 100 people in less than 20 minutes. Now that the mountain artillery units of the Eighth Route Army have opened fire, our losses will definitely be even greater! ”

Qinggang Nakazo still underestimated the losses at the front.

Therefore, the squadron leader's report directly stunned him, and it took him a long time to react.

"You're right, our troops are all elite, and even if they want to die, they should die on the battlefield fighting the enemy, not being blown up without even seeing the opponent!"

Speaking of this, Qinggang Zhongzuo suddenly thought of the scene where he had used artillery to bombard the defenders of the Chinese army on other battlefields.

After a flood of artillery fire, the Chinese defenders were almost dead, if not completely annihilated.

And all you need to do is to take a rifle with a good bayonet, rush to the battlefield, and reap the lives of the remaining Chinese troops!

"Is this retribution, I will be bombed like them, and then wiped out here by a new group!" Qinggang Zhongzuo suddenly had this very bold idea in his mind, and then a cold sweat broke out, and he couldn't stop it!

"What did you say, sir!" The anxious squadron leader didn't realize that the captain had thought of their back path, and asked with a frown.

Qinggang Zhongzuo immediately calmed himself down: "I said I agree with your idea, this battle can't be fought like this again?" ”

"However, it is definitely not possible to break through now, that is to provide the Eighth Route Army with more opportunities to attack us. After all, now is a more suitable night for the Eighth Route Army to fight. Therefore, we can only use the terrain and stick to this place until dawn! ”

"As soon as dawn and the aviation arrives, the Eighth Route Army, which is attacking us, will retreat."

The squadron leader frowned and reminded: "But the Eighth Route Army has artillery, not only mortars, but also mountain artillery. Now there are at least four hours left before dawn for the air force to come, and I don't know if the troops will be able to hold out for four hours under their artillery fire! ”

"Absolutely!" Qinggang Nakasa replied with a resolute face.

"I'll give you another infantry squad, a heavy machine gun squad, and be sure to give me at least an hour to withstand the attack of the Eighth Route Army!"

"The third squadron, the fourth squadron, immediately go and dig trenches behind you. Two squadrons digging together, it should be possible to dig a trench out in an hour! ”

"Trenches can minimize the power of mountain artillery and protect our soldiers. Although the mortars can hit the troops hiding in the trenches, the mortars of the Eighth Route have been dragged by our artillery squadron, and the number is limited, and it has little impact on the defense line! ”

The squadron leader immediately assured: "Please rest assured, sir, unless all the officers and men are killed, otherwise, the Eighth Route Army will definitely not be able to break through our defensive line!" ”

The Invalids had been lurking on the other side of the Japanese garrison with four battalions for almost an hour, and no matter how his subordinates asked for battle, he always replied to them with one sentence: "Don't be impatient, the time has not yet come."

Suddenly, the expression on the invalids' faces changed.

The devils in front of them, except for a small detachment of the first squadron, who were still holding guns, were all retreating behind.

"Comrades, here is our chance!" The Invalids commanded with excitement in his eyes.

"Infantry guns, mortars, all erected. Ten companies, eleven companies, and twelve companies, all ready to attack! ”

"The artillery concentrates all the artillery fire, carries out a two-minute artillery fire attack on the Japanese alert position, and then extends the artillery fire after it is over, and uses artillery shells to block the reinforcements that the devil may send as much as possible!"

"Infantry, rush forward as soon as the shelling begins!"

"Stop fifty meters in front of the devil's formation, everyone is a veteran, you should know that the error of mortar shelling is very small, and fifty meters in front of the formation is definitely a safe distance!"

"After the artillery fire is extended, all light and heavy machine guns are fired, all the infantry are attacked, occupy the devil's alert position, and then deploy on the spot and turn to the defense!"

Qinggang Nakazo personally commanded two squadrons to repair trenches.

In order to protect against artillery, the trenches were not built in a straight line, but in a zigzag. In this way, even if the shell hits the trench, it can only hurt the devil next to the trench, and it will not be touched at all if it is far away.

"Woo woo woo ......" Suddenly, a piercing scream sounded behind him.

With his mouth open, Qinggang Zhongzuo, who looked shocked, had not yet reacted, and a violent explosion sounded in the guard position behind him.

"How is it possible, how can there still be so many artillery pieces in the new regiment! Sir, there is at least one mortar company and one infantry artillery company on the eighth line behind us! The vice-captain next to him was also frightened, and his speech was a little incoherent.

The shocked Qinggang Nakazuo reacted quickly: "Attack back and forth!" Eight grid tooth road, the new group wants to attack us front and back, kill us! ”

"There's only one infantry squad on guard in the back, and it's definitely not going to be able to withstand it. The third squadron will be assembled immediately, reinforce the alert team behind, and resist the attack of the Eighth Route Army! ”

"The others continue to dig trenches, hurry. The new regiment has so many artillery pieces that if there were no more trenches, our people would simply not hold out until dawn! ”

"Also, send a telegram to the command, report the situation, and request reinforcements!"

"The aviation will come as soon as it is dawn, reinforce us, the sooner the better!"
