646, heavy artillery regiment
The battle continues.
Both sides are committing more and more troops.
On the side of the national army, there are at least five army numbers, with a total strength of more than 20,000 troops. All of them are elite.
The Japanese also invested a lot of troops. It's also the elite who invests in it.
A squadron or something, put it in, there is not even a bubble, it is directly annihilated.
On the side of the national army, casualties are also increasing.
"Adjutant Zhang!"
"Adjutant Zhang!"
Suddenly, a gendarme arrived and hurriedly took Zhang Chu away.
It was Yang Sanmu who looked for him.
"What's going on?"
Yang Sanmu was very puzzled. He also thought it was Zhang Chu's arrangement.
Right now, it is Zhang Chu who can deploy such a large counterattack. If he was replaced, Yang Sanmu couldn't do it. Many troops may not have listened to him.
But they all listened to Zhang Chu.
As long as Zhang Chu said that all weapons and ammunition would be reimbursed, the troops would immediately scream.
"It's none of my business."
Zhang Chu shook his head helplessly. Briefly explain the situation.
This matter really has nothing to do with him. It was completely spontaneous by the individual troops. It may be that they all want to be confined to activities.
After all, it must be uncomfortable to be pressed and beaten by Japanese invaders all the time.
Actually, this is also a good thing.
The ability to fight back shows that everyone's spirit is very high.
If it's listless, no one will fight back!
Even the 55th Army, which had just arrived, was the most overwhelmed, and sent troops to participate in the counterattack. Although it was ineffective. However, morale has indeed been boosted quite a bit.
This is very beneficial to the troops that will arrive one after another.
If other troops come to the battlefield and see despair, frustration, and dying, there will certainly be no morale.
It's like now. Everyone wants to launch a counterattack.
Judging from the actual effect, the Japanese invaders suffered a big loss. There are definitely more casualties than the national army. Forward positions were also lost.
"Report!"
Suddenly, a staff officer arrived excitedly.
The two stopped talking.
"Report! The 11th Regiment of the New Fourth Army captured a wing flag of the Japanese invaders! ”
"What?"
Yang Sanmu and Zhang Chu were both surprised and delighted.
Capture the flag of the Japanese Army?
Awesome!
That's a rarity!
The battle of Songhu has been fought for so long, and there is no such record!
The Japanese Invaders' Wing Flag, that is something that the Japanese Invaders look at heavier than their lives. Once defeated, it is better to burn it than to be captured by the enemy.
"Deliver it right away!"
"Yes!"
The staff officer immediately turned around and went to arrange.
Yang Sanmu is to personally inspect.
Zhang Chu was also a little curious. He also wanted to see if it was true.
The 11th Regiment of the New Fourth Army seems to be Zhao Bicheng. Is this guy so fierce?
"Report!"
Suddenly, the staff officer arrived.
However, it was Huang Baitao's 25th Division that reported that a Japanese wing flag was also captured.
"Deliver it quickly!"
"Deliver it quickly!"
Yang Sanmu suddenly became excited.
Oops, I feel the pinnacle of life. Unexpectedly, two Japanese flags were captured in a row.
Zhang Chu: ......
This one he absolutely believed was true.
As for Huang Baitao's 25th Division, as long as the people are not dead, it is not surprising that ten wing flags have been captured.
It's true.
The New Fourth Army did not fight as bravely as he did.
When Li Yunlong arrived, he had to write a word. I don't know if his twenty-fifth division will be gone......
"Come out with me!"
"Good!"
Zhang Chu and Yang Sanmu walked out of Chicken and Goose Alley.
A high platform was erected nearby. A little higher than the surrounding houses.
Standing on the high platform, you can vaguely see the battle situation ahead. But it is not clear to see. Because the height is not enough. At the same time, it is also relatively far from the front line.
From the telescope, you can see that the entire south of Jinling City, all places are filled with gunsmoke.
Although the battle situation of the soldiers is not visible. But judging by the density and thickness of the smoke, the battle was fierce.
I kept seeing clusters of firelight erupt.
Judging by the explosive pack, or a 150-mm shell, it is definitely not an ordinary explosion.
"You go to the heavy artillery regiment to take charge."
"Okay."
Zhang Chu readily agreed.
At this time, it is indeed the most suitable to sit in the heavy artillery regiment.
Now the most effective means of covering the front-line battle is artillery.
Especially 150-mm heavy guns.
The safety of those heavy guns must be guaranteed. Only Zhang Chu can do this.
Therefore, Zhang Chu must personally sit in the heavy artillery regiment.
The reason for this is that those 150mm heavy guns are a great threat to the Japanese invaders, and they must suffer from the jealousy of the Japanese invaders. The Japanese will definitely destroy the heavy artillery regiment by any means.
The three heavy artillery regiments, a total of eighty heavy artillery, were all intercepted by Yang Sanmu with great difficulty.
In the next battle, you have to rely on these heavy artillery.
If it is destroyed, the future battle will be passively beaten.
Zhang Chu first came to the 10th Artillery Regiment.
This is one of the best-preserved regiments of howitzers. Eight artillery batteries of the regiment, a total of 32 howitzers, were present.
The head of the regiment was known to Zhang Chu. It's called Zhang Lei. It's kind of a family.
"Adjutant Zhang!"
"Captain Zhang!"
The two simply greeted each other.
Zhang Chu was watching the firing of the Tenth Artillery Regiment from the side.
The 10th Artillery Regiment was stationed near Yuhuatai. Focus on supporting the fighting on the south-western front.
"Bang ......"
"Bang ......"
The firing of large-caliber heavy artillery was very shocking.
The fire from the muzzle of the cannon was like a grenade explosion.
The explosion of the shell was staggering. But the rate of fire is slower. There are only three shots in a minute. Or four shots. No matter how fast it is, it is impossible to exceed five rounds.
Because of the distance, I don't know if it was blown up. The only way to judge the information is from the phone calls from the observation post.
"Extend 200 ...... Forward"
"Correction Left 20......"
The call of an observation post was heard from inside the phone.
The artillery quickly adjusted, and then opened fire.
Zhang Chu stood tall, but unfortunately, he couldn't see anything. Alas, I missed the show.
However, since the heavy artillery regiment can be fired in a good way, it shows that the situation is still relatively optimistic. For the time being, it has not been subjected to Japanese counter-battery fire.
For the Japanese invaders' 105-mm heavy cannons, Zhang Chu is still very taboo.
Arrange for trucks to bring in shells.
Such 150-mm shells can weigh more than 40 kg in one shot.
Even if it is a ten-ton truck, it is about 300 rounds. If it exceeds three hundred rounds, it is a serious overload.
A total of 10 large trucks delivered 3,000 rounds of artillery shells.
"Put!"
"Put!"
All the artillerymen threw off their arms and worked hard.
According to Zhang Chu's request, the howitzer did not stop. Unless it's a bore. Otherwise, blow it all up for me. Bombed to the point that the Japanese invaders doubted life.
Subsequently, Zhang Chu came to the Fifth Artillery Regiment.
This side is mainly to support the attack of the Dian army. The shelling was also quite intense.
For the time being, there was no counter-shelling attack by the Japanese invaders. All the artillerymen were also bare-chested and firing with all their might. I really wish I had three heads and six arms.
After replenishing enough shells, came to the 7th Artillery Regiment.
The 7th Artillery Regiment had only twenty-four heavy guns. But it was a very fierce fight. It feels like the barrel is going to go white.
Supporting here is Huang Baitao's 25th Division, as well as the Beidaying, as well as the Baoshan Regiment, and the New Fourth Army. And the 85-mm cannon is overlapped. In addition, there were more than thirty 75-mm mountain guns.
Suffice it to say, the artillery fire here has reached a saturation level.
"Japanese planes!"
"Japanese planes!"
Suddenly, someone screamed.
Zhang Chu raised his head. Sure enough, in the southeast, a large number of enemy aircraft appeared. There are more than 20 of them.
Awesome.
It seems that the Japanese are also in a hurry, dispatching so many planes.
The Japanese planes must have been coming for 150mm guns. With this kind of artillery, the target is very obvious. One fried and one accurate.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
In front of the Japanese planes, the howitzers were powerless to fight back.
"Keep put!"
"You don't have to worry about the plane!"
Zhang Chu waved his hand.
He was very calm.
There are enough individual anti-aircraft missiles, what are you afraid of?
No matter how many Japanese planes come, they will not be enough to die. The only regret is that there is no profit. But it doesn't matter.
"Sneer......"
"Sneer......"
Various 20-mm and 37-mm anti-aircraft artillery firing.
Anti-aircraft fire was deployed around all heavy artillery positions. However, it had little impact on Japanese aircraft.
The number of machine guns of all calibers was seriously insufficient.
Without a few hundred gates, there is simply no way to block the sky.
"Sneer......"
"Sneer......"
Sure enough, the intensive firing had no effect.
The Japanese planes were still unoccupied.
Fortunately......
Zhang Chu has individual anti-aircraft missiles.
He looked around and came to a remote place in the middle of nowhere, where no one else was.
Take out the individual anti-aircraft missiles of the Ballista series.
Aim.
Launch.
"Whew!"
"Boom ......"
A missile whizzed away.
In an instant, a Japanese plane exploded in the air. It turned into a big fireball and fell.
Just then, a large number of anti-aircraft guns were firing at it. Everyone thought it was hit by a shell.
"Hit!"
"Hit!"
The fighters were very happy.
It's off to a good start!
Shoot down a Japanese plane so quickly!
"Whew!"
"Boom ......"
Zhang Chu continued to launch missiles.
Another Japanese plane was blown up in the air. Transform into beautiful fireworks and fall.
"Whew!"
"Whew!"
Zhang Chu fired four individual anti-aircraft missiles in a row. Shot down four enemy aircraft.
Many ordinary people in Jinling couldn't help but walk out of the door and watch the falling fireballs in the sky. It seems that the planes of the Japanese invaders are not so terrible?
"Ding......
"You destroy a Japanese plane......
"You get 5 million income ......"
"You get a sporadic reward: an American-made PT torpedo boat (without torpedoes) ......"
"Ding......
Info prompt arrived.
Zhang Chu: Huh? Not bad! It was actually shot down by anti-aircraft guns.
Good!
Good!
Go on!
Sure enough, not long after, another Japanese plane was shot down.
But it was the Japanese planes that began to reduce altitude. As a result, it was immediately intercepted by the 12.7-mm anti-aircraft machine gun in Dalian.
"Boom ......"
"Boom ......"
There were also Japanese planes that dropped bombs at high altitudes.
As a result, the bomb fell at a great distance. It's basically a waste.
"Yaga!"
"Lower the height!"
The captain of the Japanese Flying Squadron was furious.
Who told you to throw bombs?
Bastard! What about your courage?
Outcome......
Before he finished scolding, a white light struck, and the Japanese plane was blown up.
But it was Zhang Chu who fired another missile.
"Smack!"
"Smack!"
Suddenly, I heard someone shooting.
Look sideways. It was found that several familiar gendarmes. The ones who took the lead were Tongtou, Brother Qi and others.
Hehe, these guys.
Rifle jerk off? When are you superhuman?
