On March 30, 1941, Du Fu Thatched Cottage, the former enemy headquarters of the New First Army

Wang Yue helped Li Yunlong to contact the "tactical guidance" in this time and space, and Li Yunlong on the other side was also busy with his feet on the ground, and the Southern Bureau, the Ministry of Military Affairs, and the Huangshan Mansion had only one purpose, that is, to ask for permission to use chemical weapons to attack the Japanese army in Wushan, so that the most basic conditions for the Japanese army to launch the Eastern Sichuan War no longer existed.

Although everyone knew that Li Yunlong was right, almost every aspect had objections to this matter, until Wang Yue got the poison gas, and Li Yunlong only persuaded General Chen of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and it was just a silent promise, how can this be done, this is the rhythm of letting our son of the plane be a scapegoat.

In the end, at the cost of 200 P-39 fighters, he received an order from the highest authorities asking the new First Army to use any means to seize Wushan at any cost, and the Eighth Route Army also said after receiving the assistance of 100 P-39 fighters that as long as the final general attack order was not issued by the personnel of the Eighth Route Army.

On the day of the 30th, the four divisions of the new First Army took turns to go into battle, constantly advancing with tank troops, destroying the guard positions on the periphery of the Japanese army, Anan Weiji judged that this should be the precursor of the national army preparing for a large-scale attack, so he simply gave up part of the guard positions and concentrated the main forces to hold the second-line positions, he believed that relying on the terrain of Wushan as a basis, if he wanted to rely on his second-line positions, he would have to pay at least 100,000 casualties, and now there are only a few people in the national army on the opposite side.

It's just that Anan didn't understand why the Huaxia Air Force was bombing the position of Wushan Xiqi with all its strength all day? Because it is of little significance, his second line of defense has basically built a semi-permanent fortification group, and it is difficult to completely destroy the 100 B-25 bombers of the Huaxia Air Force, because it has not yet reached the firepower density for bombing complex terrain, but it is not a big problem, anyway, it consumes the opponent's valuable resource reserves.

The only thing that made Anan angry was the fools of the navy, because they didn't find the small wooden minelayers of the Huaxia Navy, so they planted hundreds of mines near Wushan, so that the naval fleet could not get close to support the defenders on Wushan.

However, it is not a big problem, although he lost a batch when he was in Zhongxian, but now there are more than 500 captured artillery pieces and his own artillery in his hands, and the ammunition reserves are sufficient, and he is not afraid of an artillery battle with the new army on the opposite side, even if it is the B-4 howitzer in the hands of the new army, he does not dare to speak easily, because there is no generation difference between the two sides in long-range firepower.

After nightfall on the 30th, the artillery units of the newly formed First Army advanced to the core defense line of the Japanese army under the cover of tank troops.

A full hundred M1938 120mm mortars can definitely be regarded as a cannon group on the Chinese battlefield, don't look at the ghost There are also 150mm large mortars in their hands, but how many divisions and regiments are there, and they can't form such an artillery group at all, but the current artillery position is very deserted, and a large number of soldiers wearing full-body protective clothing are there to check every shell lightly, and the soldiers in charge of vigilance are scattered far away. Some of the vehicles did not turn off, apparently ready to evacuate at any moment.

It was the first time they had used such a powerful gas shell, and it was said that the toxicity was not at all comparable to the mustard gas of the devils. A full 10,000 rounds of large-caliber mortar shells, this is just this one position, there are four such preset positions in the area around Wushan, each position has prepared 10,000 shells, Li Yunlong does not plan to be frugal, 50,000 rounds of artillery shells, he plans to use them all at once, since chemical weapons have been used, simply make a big one.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the artillery group of the New First Army opened fire first, and hundreds of artillery pieces were scattered in more than a dozen artillery positions, and began to launch a rapid artillery attack on the Japanese positions, and the shelling lasted only a few minutes, and the Japanese artillery over there had not yet calculated the location of their artillery positions, and the artillery stopped, and after the Japanese counterattack artillery fire began, the artillery of the New First Army had already moved their positions.

However, the Japanese artillery in the exposed position was destroyed by the B-4 howitzers of the new First Army, as before, the shelling stopped after a while, apparently shifting the position, this time, Anan did not order the B-4 howitzer in his hand to fire, he knew that the B-4 howitzer in his hand was relatively small, and he could not easily expose the position position, he had to save these guns for the most suitable time to fire.

In this way, in the next few hours, the New First Army and the Eleventh Army of the Devils launched repeated artillery bombardments and counter-artillery bombardments, fighting back and forth and mutual losses, and it was tossed and turned until more than three o'clock in the second half of the night before it finally stopped, making both sides exhausted.

But just when everyone thought that tonight's battle was going to come to an end, the raindrops of shells smashed on the Japanese positions again, and the Japanese puppet army troops on the front line subconsciously seemed to dodge the shelling, but after waiting for a while, there was no sound of shell explosions.

Sure enough, soon some front-line troops reported being attacked by the opponent's special ammunition, but compared to the front-line positions that sent back the message, more positions continued to lose contact, and the number was increasing, and it was clear that their opponents had launched special ammunition attacks on an unprecedented scale.

Intentionally let the artillery unit immediately counterattack, but the opponent is using a large-caliber mortar, in such a night, it is difficult to grasp the position of the opponent's artillery position, and there is no way to fight back, only ten minutes, there are only a few points left on his second line of defense and still keep in touch with the headquarters, but the situation is quite not optimistic, and the commanders of the three points together can control less than 1,000 troops.

The position is shrouded in poisonous fog, this is a brand new poisonous gas, colorless, with a faint fruity fragrance, even if you wear a gas mask, you can't completely isolate it, because the effect of skin absorption is just as good, as long as the skin is exposed to the poisonous fog, you will soon have symptoms such as miosis, difficulty breathing, bronchial constriction and violent convulsions, and you will suffocate to death in just a few minutes.

Now Anan can only pray that the poisonous fog will dissipate as soon as possible, so that he can mobilize troops to fill the second-line position, but he is not very panicked, and the opponent cannot seize the position in this situation, after all, gas masks are not cheap.
