Violent explosions instantly sounded on the Japanese position, and the first to bear the brunt was the gentle slope in the southeast corner where the three tanks were located.

At this moment, the entire gentle slope is covered by artillery fire from the Sichuan Army! The little devil here was blown up on his back, and his severed limbs and stumps flew in all directions......

"Run, run!"

"Reverse, go backwards, get out of here!"

Those tanks hurriedly retreated, although the protection of the Type 97 medium tank has been greatly enhanced, but it is only compared to other Japanese tanks, not to mention 105 caliber shells, even the 37 anti-aircraft guns can penetrate his armor.

This kind of scum, which was crushed in front of Sherman, dared to be exposed to the shelling of the Sichuan Army at this time, and they all fled back desperately with full horsepower.

"Boom!"

However, on this rugged slope, how could they outrun the bombardment of artillery shells, and a high-explosive grenade accurately hit one of the retreating tanks, and the tank car instantly lay on the ground.

Although the muzzle velocity of the howitzer is not high, it cannot penetrate the heavy armor like an armor-piercing projectile, but it is still more than enough for this thin-skinned Type 97 tank, and the huge explosion power turned this tank into a fireball, and the violent shock wave has already shocked the soldiers inside to death!

The other two tanks were terrified by this scene, and the commander desperately rushed the driver to increase the accelerator and hurry out of this hellish place.

"Hurry up, don't stop, they're going to run, Krupp give Lao Tzu to bite those two tanks!"

At this moment, on the artillery position of the Sichuan Corps, four 105mm howitzers and a dozen 120mm mortars are desperately pouring shells on the gentle slope opposite, except for the Krupp howitzer, only 120mm mortars can reach this range.

The other 92 infantry guns of the 81 forced these to shoot only at the Japanese riverside position, and could not pose a threat to the gentle slope.

But it's enough. Li Liansheng and Krupp, with dozens of more skilled artillerymen, were sweating and reloading and firing artillery.

The soldiers gritted their teeth, although the high-intensity shooting made them tired enough one by one, but everyone was holding their breath, they wanted to avenge those comrades-in-arms who were desecrated by the Japanese!

"Bang!"

The howitzer let out a loud roar, and while Krupp beckoned the fighters to quickly withdraw the ammunition, he again used the sight to calculate the data.

"The pitch angle has been increased by one degree! Cannonballs for me! ”

Saying that, Krupp took the shell, but his body of more than 200 pounds was now like a nimble monkey, quickly loaded the grenade and propellant, and then retreated to the back of the gun carriage and pulled the rope hard.

"Bang!" With a loud bang, the shell burst out of its chamber, arcing through the sky and striking hard at the tail of the tank. A violent explosion ignited the fuel tank behind the butt of the tank, and the entire body was instantly enveloped in flames!

The roof of the tank was opened, and two burning men came out of it, dancing and screaming... But it was soon blown to pieces by the constantly falling shells.

"Alright, Krupp! Replace the high-explosive bomb with an incendiary bomb and bomb the river defense position raised by his son, Lao Tzu wants them to taste the taste of barbecue! ”

"Got it, Commander."

Seeing that the last tank had retreated down a gentle slope, the shells could no longer pose a threat to it. Liao Mingyu immediately made a decision, changed direction and continued to bombard the Japanese soldiers on the Takeuchi position.

"The target, the forward positions of the Japanese army. Concentrate all your artillery and attack indiscriminately! ”

As soon as he gave the order, the soldiers immediately went into action. All the artillery immediately adjusted their angles, and the muzzles of the black holes were aimed at the Japanese positions on the Nantianmen.

"Report to the head of the group, the angle adjustment is complete, please instruct!" Li Liansheng shouted loudly.

"Fire! Kill them for me! ”

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

……

Four 105 howitzers, twelve 120mm mortars, and twelve 92 infantry guns all sent out a vengeful roar at the Japanese position.

In fact, the artillery of the entire Sichuan Army is more than this, but the artillery is limited, and after the continuous training of Krupp and Li Liansheng during this time, it can be enough to train soldiers who can operate these artillery.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Boom ......"

The dense shells exploded countless impact points on the little devil's position. Those Japanese soldiers who didn't have time to dodge were bombed and cried and cried.

The power of the 15-kilogram incendiary bomb is not only reflected in the shrapnel killing, although the wax glue explosive does not have the terrifying incendiary properties like napalm, but the adhesion is also quite good.

Countless little devils were splashed by the flames of the explosion, and the flames that could not be extinguished for a moment burned their bodies fiercely, and there was no way but desperate struggles and screams of pain.

There are still many trees on the Nantian Gate, which have been ignited by scattered flames at this moment, and the raging fire is like God's divine punishment, burning wantonly on this land.

In addition to being bombarded by shells, the little devils also had to face the invasion of mountain fires, and they were immediately burned to death and burned countless people, this stirring scene made everyone in the Sichuan Army on the slope of the sacrificial flag excited.

"Haha, well done!"

"Burn these eight calves!"

"Commander, why don't you take us over directly!"

……

The first full-scale firepower of the Sichuan Legion allowed the Japanese to finally appreciate their formidable strength.

Takeuchi Renshan, who was hiding in the pit, had a haze on his face, and he never expected that this strange force on the opposite side would have such a fierce artillery fire.

"What about our artillery, strike back immediately!"

"Wing Commander, our artillery suffered heavy losses in the last artillery battle, and only five 75 field guns were left that could fire, and the other infantry guns were not enough to fire the range." The staff officer next to him replied sweating profusely.

"How can it be repaired! The supporting artillery brigade has not yet arrived, otherwise how could they be so arrogant! ”

Takeuchi Renshan said resentfully. His face was gloomy, and he was just talking about his great plan to Fujiwara in high spirits, but now he was slapped in the face by the enemy on the other side. It's still the kind of slap in the face in public

"Fire at me right away and suppress the enemy's artillery fire! Otherwise, our defenses will be in jeopardy! ”

"Hey, I'll arrange it right away."

Seeing that the soldiers on the front position were in a panic, Takeuchi Renshan was anxious.

Now the entire defense system has not been completed, and it will be dangerous for the Chinese army on the riverside to attack at this time. If you don't know, the entire defense line will collapse.

……

The scene in front of him made Liao Mingyu think a lot, and he didn't expect the effect of the incendiary bomb to be so good.

This is a good opportunity, now the little devil camp is in chaos, if Yu Xiaoqing on the riverside can seize this opportunity to cross the river and attack, it is not impossible to rush to Nantianmen!

It's a pity that those grandchildren are destined to eat and can't catch up with the heat.

"Okay, stop the shelling, Li Liansheng! Remove all the mortars and infantry guns in front. ”

The shelling lasted for 10 minutes, and Liao Mingyu decisively gave the order for a ceasefire, not because of the lack of shells, but because he knew that the little devil's counterattack was coming soon.

"Tuanza, we still have cannonballs, keep bombarding those calves." Mi Long said puzzled, he didn't understand why the regiment leader had to stop attacking just after he had played the advantage.

"Boom your sister, the little devil's counterattack is coming, don't pestle. All the people in the first battalion entered the position, and they all shrank in the individual trench for Lao Tzu, and they were not allowed to rise without my order! ”

Under Liao Mingyu's order, the soldiers reacted quickly, Li Liansheng commanded the artillerymen to push out the infantry guns placed on the hill, and the other soldiers also quickly jumped into the trench and cowered in the individual bunker.

"Whew......"

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

As expected, within a few minutes, the Japanese shelling arrived as promised......
