Chapter 427: Surprise Attack on Heyuan County (Part II)!

"Wang Chengzhu, immediately lead the artillery to set up the cannon and aim at the city wall and shoot directly!"

At the headquarters, Li Yunlong raised his binoculars and observed the city wall for a while, and gave an order to Wang Chengzhu loudly.

The troops completed the encirclement of Heyuan County at great speed.

However, the troops did not immediately attack, but waited for the artillery to mount the guns.

Although the target of this attack is only the county seat, after all, it is the county seat, and the city is high and thick, and it is not comparable to the turret and the stronghold.

If there is no artillery to blast the city wall, use the death squad to carry explosives bags to bombard the city wall, I don't know how many soldiers will have to be sacrificed.

"Yes!" Wang Chengzhu responded loudly.

Then he shouted: "Pull all the cannons to the front, move fast!" ”

It is a flat land about 800 meters away from the west city wall of Heyuan County.

"Set up all the guns here, move fast!"

Wang Chengzhu pointed to the flat ground and roared in a rough voice.

In the direction of the city wall, the devil puppet army jumped for a while, obviously preparing for battle, but Wang Chengzhu and his artillerymen turned a deaf ear.

Behind Wang Chengzhu, the artillerymen led military horses or mules to drag the cannon to the designated position and began to build artillery positions.

Since the cannon was directly dragged by mules and horses, the assembly time was greatly saved.

Under the order of Wang Chengzhu, the artillerymen set up a position with the artillery at the designated position, and there were militiamen or people in the rear, who successively carried the shells to a position five meters away from the artillery position and put them down.

In less than five minutes, 12 75-mm mountain guns and 12 105-mm howitzers had been erected.

The gunners of the various gun positions reported one after another.

This time, Li Yunlong did not use 150-mm heavy artillery.

In a county town, Li Yunlong is still unable to use strategic weapons, and a 105-mm howitzer and a 75-mm mountain artillery are sufficient.

"Aim for the walls below the tower!"

Wang Chengzhu's voice was as loud as a bell, and he ordered loudly.

"Kakaka..."

As soon as the words fell, a rhythmic cradle rotation sound sounded on each gun position, and the muzzle of the gun pointed at the target as the barrel rose in unison.

The gunner crouched behind the gun carriage and kept his eyes close to the optical sight, guiding the barrel to point.

There were many sieges, and the artillerymen had long been experienced.

Because it was night, there was no need to worry about the devils sending planes to bomb, so they directly pulled the cannon to a distance of 800 meters from the city wall and fired directly.

In order to save shells and time, as soon as they came up, they used all their cannons and aimed at one point on the city wall.

The searchlights that strafed everywhere at the tower provided a good view of the shelling of the gun positions.

"Aim!"

"Aim!"

“……”

The gunners reported loudly.

At that moment, Wang Chengzhu picked up the low-power walkie-talkie and called: "Call the command center, call the command center." ”

"This is Command."

Soon, Li Yunlong's voice came from the walkie-talkie.

"Report to the regiment commander, the artillery is ready!"

Wang Chengzhu reported to Li Yunlong in the walkie-talkie.

"It's pretty fast." Li Yunlong said, "Let the mountain artillery fire first, and immediately the sword squadron needs the support of two rounds of artillery shells from the howitzer battalion, and Lu Yingjun will contact you with a high-power walkie-talkie." ”

"Yes!" Wang Chengzhu replied loudly.

He knew that the Sword Squadron was now in ambush in the city, ready to behead the headquarters of the Devil Gendarmerie at any time.

The Devil's County Command must be heavily defended, especially in this case, the devils are all soldiers and do not dare to slack off, coupled with the strong fortifications of the Devil's Command.

Even if the sword squadron is full of soldiers, even if they bring in weapons and ammunition, it will be difficult to solve the battle in a short time.

And once the devil comes to his senses, the Sword Squadron is at risk of being surrounded.

However, from the very beginning of the battle plan, Li Yunlong was not prepared to let the Sword Squadron stupidly attack the Devil Headquarters in Heyuan County.

"All mountain artillery, fire it now!"

Wang Chengzhu ordered loudly.

At the same time, the 12 mountain guns roared almost simultaneously, and the shells came out of their disembowels and fired at the city wall 800 meters ahead.

Boom boom...

The continuous sound of explosions, accompanied by fireballs and gunsmoke, the continuous tremor of the city wall was bombed, shattering a large area of the outer wall, and the rubble of the city wall fell down.

In the first round, only the mountain artillery was firing, the first shot was not very accurate, the shells did not fall in the same position, the main body of the city wall was still intact, and the city wall was not penetrated.

"Go on!"

Wang Chengzhu just glanced at the city wall and ordered the shelling to continue.

At this moment, there was a sizzling current sound from the high-power walkie-talkie, and the operator immediately picked it up.

After a while, the operator shouted to Wang Chengzhu: "Battalion commander, it's Captain Lu of the Sword Squadron!" ”

Wang Chengzhu said: "Let Captain Lu convey the shooting of Zhu Yuan!" ”

The operator immediately said:

"Hey, Captain Lu, please convey the shooting Zhuyuan immediately!"

"Ruler two hundred and sixty-one..."

As the operator reported loudly, Wang Chengzhu then dictated, and the howitzer gunners next to him quickly shook the shaker and adjusted the firing of Zhu Yuan.

"Howitzer company platoon by row, put it!"

As Wang Chengzhu's voice fell, a high-explosive grenade was stuffed into the barrel of the cannon, and then the gunner reluctantly pulled the fire rope.

The first test-fired 105-millimeter high-explosive grenade suddenly burst out of its barrel, slashed through the air in an arc visible to the naked eye, and smashed into the city.

More than ten seconds later, the sound of Lu Yingjun adjusting and shooting Zhu Yuan came from the high-power walkie-talkie.

Soon, the second test-fired high-explosive grenade was fired from the muzzle after adjusting the firing element.

It didn't take long for the high-power walkie-talkie to hear Lu Yingjun's guiding words for the whole battalion to shoot.

The 12 105-mm howitzers immediately fired at the city in two rounds according to Lu Yingjunchuan's fire.

After two rounds of shelling, all 105-mm howitzers, on the orders of Wang Chengzhu, began to shell the city walls.

In the continuous rapid explosions, the western city wall of Heyuan County was crumbling, and the deafening explosion spread several kilometers away.

……

Inside the city.

The Devil's Command was almost reduced to a sea of fire in the sudden shelling.

The Devil's Command was hit by more than 20 105-mm high-explosive grenades.

The houses collapsed, the flames soared into the sky, and the screams and wails, cries for help, and angry cursing suddenly rang out.

Lu Yingjun stood sideways at the window of a certain house, looking at the devil headquarters in the distance, and when he saw that the shelling stopped, he jumped into the alley from the second floor, and gave an order: "According to the original plan, the first and second teams will attack the main gate of the devil headquarters, and the third and fourth teams will guard the back door. ”

"Kill it!"

The tone of the team leader and team members was filled with murderous intent, and a loud sound of pulling the bolt of the gun suddenly sounded in the air.

"Get out of the way!"

Lu Yingjun was the first to get into the Type 92 armored car and sat in the firing position.

Sitting in the firing position with his height, he looked very crowded, but in order to operate this 7.7mm heavy machine gun, Lu Yingjun had to aggrieve himself.

Type 92 armored vehicles and Type 94 trucks drove out of the alley towards the Devil's Command.

On the street, there were devil puppet soldiers carrying buckets to the devil headquarters, trying to put out the fire.

Lu Yingjun saw two rows of devil puppet soldiers in front of him in the shooting hole.

The snowy lights shone past, and the devil puppet army stood on the side of the road, ready to give way.

He pressed the press iron of the 7.7mm machine gun, and it was a long shot at these devil puppet soldiers, and the bullet swept towards the devil puppet army in a fan direction.

Da Da

The unsuspecting devil puppet army suddenly fell in a large area.

Not to be outdone, the team members in the car held submachine guns and shot at the devil puppet army that caught up from the rear.

The team members kept changing their shooting methods, single shots, bursts, and point shots, and in the dazzling sound of shooting, almost the guns hit the enemy, and they raised their hands.

Soon within the visibility, there was no longer a living devil puppet army.

The armored car with the truck, all the way into no man's land, quickly killed from the alley to the gate of the devil headquarters, and killed at least dozens of devil puppet troops on the road.

Two devils rushed out of the devil's gate.

Lu Yingjun operated a crane gun with a three-shot short shot, da, da, da, da, and the two devils fell down in response.

Immediately afterwards, several devils with 38 rifles rushed out of the devil headquarters, and they were beaten into a sieve in a moment.

The devil finally fought back, and a devil heavy machine gun set up at the gate screamed wildly, and the steel plate of the ninety-twenty armored car was clanged.

Lu Yingjun changed his bullet to the point of fire of the devil's machine gun, and the soldiers on the roof of the car also opened fire with submachine guns.

In the night, tracer bullets are like strings of fiery meteors scurrying back and forth, dazzling people's eyes.

On the roof of the car, Duan Peng set up a Bazooka bazooka, and pulled the trigger on the fire point aimed at the devil.

Stop!

There was a sharp whistling sound in the air, and at the same time, orange-red tail flames streaked across the night sky, hitting the devil's firepower point.

Rumble!

The next moment, an explosion like a landslide sounded, and the position in front of the Devil's Command Department that was built up with sandbags was instantly blown into the sky.

Lu Yingjun and his team members quickly jumped out of the car and headed towards the mouth of the devil headquarters.

When they got closer, a few grenades were thrown in, and the team members, led by Lu Yingjun, only charged into the devil headquarters.

After a wave of 105-mm high-explosive shells, there were many casualties in the Devil's Command, and Ichiro Hirata was killed on the spot.

The Sword Squadron flanked on both sides and soon occupied the Devil's Headquarters.

Not long after, the western city wall of Heyuan County was bombarded by a mountain artillery battalion and a howitzer battalion of the Eighth Route Army.

Then, mortar and infantry artillery fired a dense burst of artillery on the walls.

Taking advantage of the shelling, the infantry quietly approached the city walls with siege ladders.

But it was soon discovered by the devil puppet army on the city wall, and the devil puppet army came out from behind the bunker, withstood artillery fire, and fired at the new regiment of infantry with light and heavy machine guns.

As soon as the devils opened fire, the infantry of the new regiment began to crawl and hide.

Because in the rear, the machine guns of the new regiment are ready!

With the sound of machine guns "all through...", the machine gunners who had already been ready aimed at the machine gun fire point of the devil puppet army on the city wall and fired.

Thirty devil puppet army firepower points were suddenly destroyed by machine guns in an instant.

Mountain artillery and howitzer shelling, mortar and infantry shelling, mortar and infantry shelling, machine artillery shelling.

In the field of vision of the telescope, I watched the firepower of more than 30 devils and pseudo-armies quickly mute.

Grand Master Li was very satisfied with the siege experience he had summed up during the battle.
