After two rounds of shelling to the top of the hill.

The Devil puppet army is preparing to start the fourth attack on the outskirts of Dagu Town.

It's still the puppet army in front, and the devil in the back.

The difference is that the devils wear gas masks, and the puppet army does not wear gas masks.

However, the devils did not give the puppet army a way to live, and if the puppet army wanted to wear gas masks, they could only attack the third wave of killed and injured devils and pick up the gas masks from the corpses of the devils.

This time, the puppet army dispatched a battalion, and the devil dispatched two infantry squadrons.

Gas bombs, conventional artillery shells, and smoke bombs all poured down on the new group's position.

"Kudansakami!"

"Kudansakami!"

Several devils gathered together with a fierce expression, their eyes were firm, and they encouraged each other.

The Yasukuni Shrine is located in Kudanzaka, Tokyo, and when many devils are in a bad situation, they will say to each other Kudanzaka.

It means to be enshrined in the Yasukuni shrine together.

In the first three attacks, the attacking troops suffered most of the casualties each time, and this time there is a high probability that this group of devils will not return.

"Ready!"

The leader of the devil squadron drew his command saber with a swipe.

Seeing this, one of the devils quickly put away the photo of his wife, then put his helmet on his head, and then picked up the Type 38 rifle beside him.

"Kill the chicken and give it!"

The Devil Squadron Leader commanded the knife and pointed forward.

The puppet army took the lead in attacking with rifles, and the devils scattered in a scattered line behind them, rushing towards the new regiment position.

This time, the devil also used flamethrowers, one infantry squadron with 4 flamethrowers, and two squadrons with a total of 8 flamethrowers.

……

"The devil fired smoke grenades and gas bombs into the side-firing bunker?"

In the headquarters of the new regiment, Li Yunlong received a report from the forward command headquarters.

After the devils began shelling the top of the hill, the headquarters set up there was withdrawn.

Even if Li Yunlong doesn't come down, Zhao Gang will take someone to take Li Yunlong down, others don't dare, but Zhao Gang won't get used to Li Yunlong.

At this time, in the headquarters, Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo, Wang Dehou, Chen Feng and others were all there.

"The devil is going to use our tactics to deal with us?"

Xing Zhiguo guessed the devil's tactical intentions at the first time.

"Among the enemies in this attack are devils with flamethrowers."

At the observation post on the top of the hill under the fire of devils, the latest news was transmitted by walkie-talkie.

Li Yunlong's eyes narrowed slightly: "Let Zhang Dabiao withdraw the firepower of the flank bunker." ”

Although this tactic was summed up by the new regiment in actual combat, it was obvious that the devils learned it, and the devils in turn used this tactic to deal with the new regiment.

If you don't remove the fighters from the flank bunkers, you will probably be charred by the devil's flamethrower.

After all, this time the new regiment is on the defensive side.

Although the total strength of the new regiment was not much different from that of the 10th Division.

But you need to defend on multiple fronts, and you can't let the devils enter the base area.

Defending and attacking have advantages and disadvantages to each other, and while heavy combat tends to generally favor the defending side, defense requires dispersal of forces.

The attacker, on the other hand, can often concentrate superior forces and attack your weak points.

For example, in the Battle of Scarlet, the Central Army and the Jin Sui Army combined with hundreds of thousands of people, but the Japanese army broke through from the weak point of the first line of Niangzi Pass, and then the defense line of hundreds of thousands of people collapsed.

…

With Li Yunlong's order, it was issued.

The new regiment and battalion of soldiers in the bunker retreated along the tunnels into the tunnels.

on the battlefield.

The Devils' assault force soon reached the position where the third wave of Devils was attacked by side fire and shelling.

Although the 82-mm mortars of the new regiment were firing all the time, smoke grenades obscured the view of the observers on the top of the hill, and the shelling effect was not satisfactory.

The quality of the devil's smoke grenade is much worse than that provided by Boss Chen, but the devil fired a lot of money this time.

The devil's flamethrower touched the side of the bunker and spewed flames at the new bunker.

The flamethrower used by the devil is called the Best flamethrower, and the spray distance is only 25 meters, and it can only be sprayed at one time, and the spray time is 10 to 15 seconds.

The fire dragon instantly rushed into the dark fort, but it did not let out the screams of the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army.

Immediately afterwards, a ghost soldier touched over and threw a few grenades into the bunker.

There were several explosions, and smoke and fire suddenly erupted from the firing holes of the bunker.

After doing all this, the devils and the puppet army continued to attack and advance with confidence.

Although the bunker was designed without a door, it was connected to a tunnel, but the devil used a flamethrower, which caused the bunker to be full of fire, and the Heavy could not re-enter the bunker for the time being.

……

"The devil is 150 meters from the forward position."

Soon, the hilltop observation post reported the latest situation to the regimental headquarters.

Li Yunlong thought for three seconds, and his face turned fierce: "Pass my order to let the 1st Artillery Battalion carry out a blocking artillery bombardment of the 1st Battalion's forward position 150 meters!" ”

"Yes!"

Wang Dehou responded, and then grabbed the high-power walkie-talkie and called:

"Is it the 1st Artillery Battalion, this is the regimental headquarters, immediately carry out a blocking artillery bombardment of the 1st Battalion's forward position 150 meters!"

Soon, Wang Chengzhu's excited roar came from his ears: "Yes, carry out a blocking artillery bombardment of 150 meters of the forward position!" ”

After hanging up the call, the telegraph operator next to him put down his headset and handed a message to Wang Dehou.

Wang Dehou picked up the telegram and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Lijiazhen also fought very well, the third battalion has repelled three attacks by the Japanese army, annihilated more than 700 devils and puppet troops, and the three battalions suffered less than 100 casualties. ”

On the side of Lijia Town, although there is no such good terrain as Dagu Town.

However, defensive positions were also carefully chosen, with tunnels, bunkers and mines laid in dangerous locations.

Xing Zhiguo said with a smile: "I think the devils of the 10th Division are not much stronger than the devils of the second-line division, even if it is a frontal field battle, our new regiment will not lose." ”

"Be bold and get rid of what you can't see."

Li Yunlong's tone was confident: "With the strength and equipment of our new regiment now, we can naturally beat the 10th Division, but the dead camel is bigger than the horse, if we attack head-on now, we will definitely be able to beat the 10th Division, but our regiment is estimated to have more than half of the casualties, we can't do the loss of money, and when the living force of the 10th Division is almost consumed, let's fight out with one fist and completely defeat the 10th Division!" ”

Zhao Gang, Xing Zhiguo and Wang Dehou all had expectant expressions on their faces.

If the 10th Division is defeated, then Okamura Ningji's expression will be very exciting.

……

About 4 kilometers from the position of the first battalion, there was a huge flat area next to the road.

…

12 105-mm howitzers and 28 75-mm mountain guns, lined up in three columns, with barrels sticking out of the camouflage net, pointing straight in the direction of the battlefield in the distance.

Even if the devils no longer have fighters and bombers, camouflage nets are still drawn up on the artillery positions.

Behind the gun emplacements, there were mountains of ammunition boxes, and 40 gun squads were waiting for them.

The 1st Artillery Battalion and the 2nd Artillery Battalion were both equipped with 12 105-mm mountain guns and 28 75-mm mountain guns, and their firepower was stronger than that of the Japanese mountain artillery wing.

The 2nd Artillery Battalion was placed on the side of Lijiazhen to cooperate with the 3rd and 4th Battalions to defend the 33rd Brigade of the Devils.

As early as before the start of the war, the 1st Artillery Battalion had measured the shooting in advance, and even conducted a pre-test firing.

"Target, 150 meters ahead of the position of the first battalion, block the artillery bombardment!"

"Ready!"

"Put!"

With the order of the battalion commander Wang Chengzhu, the gunner who had adjusted the various gun positions that fired Zhu Yuan pulled the towing fire rope almost at the same time.

Boom boom...

40 fireworks burst out from the muzzle of the gun, and the scorching wind swept by, suddenly kicking up a large puff of smoke and dust.

As the first shell bursts out of the chamber, the loader picks up the second shell.

There are also various tactics of shelling, such as the devil firing artillery shells at a new group of positions, which is called destructive shelling.

And blocking the artillery bombardment can not only block a certain width of defense, kill and injure the attacking devil infantry with barrage, but also block the follow-up echelon of the devil.

This type of gameplay requires a lot of shells and logistical supply support to play, because many shells may not hit people.

However, now the new regiment has 5 base shells, and there is no shortage of shells in the war space, so Li Yunlong has also unlocked new tactics.

Li Yunlong's idea was very simple, that is, not to let the devils enter the position to fight with the soldiers of the new regiment.

Although in terms of fighting and stabbing, the soldiers of the new regiment are not afraid of the devils of the A division, but there are ways to reduce the casualties of the soldiers of the new regiment and increase the casualties of the devils and puppet army, so fools don't need it.

The shells were as bright as silk, and with a sharp whistling sound, they roared towards the position of 150 meters of the forward position.

Not long after, the sound of rumbling shells and explosions came from the back of the mountain.

At this time, the vanguard of the puppet army entered within 100 meters of the new regiment.

Wherever the shells landed, they became red, and disappeared without a trace along with the devil puppet army at the place where the explosion occurred.

The 40 cannons of the 1st Artillery Battalion did not have any respite, and directly fired 15 salvos, forming a wall of fire in front of the position, and the devil puppet army who entered the wall of fire was killed and wounded, and the devils in the follow-up echelon did not dare to step half a step.

……

In the headquarters of the 8th brigade.

Major General Saburo Miura, who saw this scene in the field of view of the artillery team, angrily ordered an intensive artillery bombardment of the new regiment's position.

However, seeing that the devils did not rush to the position, after the shelling of the devils began, the fighters on the position re-entered the tunnel.

Looking at the defeated soldiers, Saburo Miura's face turned pale.

"Your Excellency Brigade Commander, this is a blocking artillery bombardment consisting of 105-mm howitzers and 75-mm mountain guns!"

"The firepower is about one artillery wing, and the artillery literacy of the Eighth Route is extremely high, and it actually blocks the shelling at 150 meters from the forward position!"

"And it can be seen from this that there should be a lot of shells on the Eighth Road..."

Hiroo Ohno, who was born as an artilleryman, saw the tactics of the artillery of the Eighth Route Army.

More than 1,000 casualties were killed and wounded in just one afternoon, how can this battle be fought?

Saburo Miura looked at the sky, the sunset was beautiful, but he was in a bad mood, at this moment he wanted to cut people, took a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart:

"Ohno-kun, immediately report the battle situation to the division commander, and request the division headquarters to send an engineer wing to carry out earthwork work!"

"Hey!" Ohno Bin Fu paused.
