under fire

Chapter 1044 Rabbit bites in a hurry

When the hum of the plane appeared in the east.

Hu Yi's heart sank.

After seeing clearly that it was a fighter jet, I felt a little better.

There was a commotion on the mountain ridge, and one after another rushed to the cover that had been prepared earlier.

The soldiers of the Ninth Battalion and the prisoners of the puppet army were completely waiting in fear to be bombed and fired by the legendary machine guns.

However, after the plane circled twice over the north side of the ridge, it turned around and flew away.

If you are bold enough to poke your head out and wait and see, it is a rare opportunity to see the iron bump that can fly in the sky at such a close distance
Hu Yi was a little surprised that the fighter jets did not shoot.

Six planes came over at the same time, clearly not reconnaissance planes.

Leaning against the stone surface, I quickly held up the binoculars to observe the plane in the distance.

It wasn't until I saw the plane dive over the mountain ridge in the east that I finally realized that the enemy's target was not the Nine Battalion!

"Report, the devils in the north have finished queuing up and will be coming up soon." The guard whistle shouted loudly.

The platoon leaders of each squad began to remind the soldiers who were still watching the plane: "Pay attention to anti-aircraft guns, remember the essentials of anti-aircraft guns... Tell me... Don't lie on the ground stupidly, and quickly support your body with your arms."

"The battalion commander said, the devil doesn't have heavy artillery, so what are you afraid of?" Although the soldier who was reminded was not happy, he still muttered and stood up as required.

The other soldier stared wide-eyed and didn't poke his head out, looking at the blue sky eagerly: "Hey, squad leader, do you think the enemy will use gas bombs?"

The veteran squad leader under Big Dog cast a blank glance at the nervously trembling recruit: "Now there is a mountain wind, we are in the upper hand, unless the attacking devil doesn't want to live anymore."

"We've been busy all morning planting mines, can we blow up the devils?"

"Hey, before the battle even started, you've become a coward. You'll see how the little devil gets blown to the sky later."

The devils naturally felt that their lives were precious, so they didn't rush forward.

The Eighth Route on the mountain ridge has become a turtle in an urn, and they can be played to death slowly with well-trained imperial soldiers.

However, before that, it is better to persuade them to surrender, and it is more in the interests of the imperial army to wait for Tubalu to come out and surrender without firing a single shot.

It has long been known from the news sent back by the warriors who sneaked into the Eighth Route that the Tuba Road has three mortars!
The devil infantry lieutenant who led the attack despised the three mortars. In front of the powerful firepower of the imperial soldiers, they were nothing!

If it weren't for the fact that there was an elite advance team on the mountain ridge, they would directly use artillery fire to overturn the long and narrow mountain ridge. It's over!

Since it is not possible to shell the entire mountain ridge for the time being, then shell the forward position of Tuba Road.

The bones of Tubalu are hard, they are masters who don’t cry when they don’t see the coffin!
As soon as the battle started, the warriors who pretended to be the national army and sneaked into the Eighth Route would join forces inside and outside. This battle should not be difficult.

In the past two years, it is not uncommon for Tuba Road to surrender
The mountain road that is about to attack is narrow, and the team can't spread out at all.

Therefore, after receiving the notification that the artillery was ready, the infantry lieutenant split into three squads and three squads, which was equivalent to forming three echelons.

The machine gun is suppressed, and the grenadier is used to pull the soil and firepower from eight channels.

Arrived about [-] meters away from Tuba Road, and only waited for the shelling of the Tuba Road position from behind to defeat the Tuba Road on the mountain in one fell swoop.

On the mountain road among the thickets of rocks and bushes, more than fifty devils led the way and began to march towards the mountain ridge.

Earlier, I saw that Qing Tuba Road was hiding on that cliff, but this time it was attacking upwards. Once it got close, danger would be everywhere.

The tension before the big battle finally appeared in the team.

Time was passing, and the distance to the cliff position of Tuba Road was getting closer and closer, 400 meters, 300 meters. The devils did not move forward, and looked for cover on the spot.

The lieutenant in charge of the attack waved his hand.

The devil next to him immediately waved the small flag in his hand.

The observers on the artillery position immediately sang, and the commander of the artillery squadron issued an order to bombard.

A [-]mm mortar shell fell out of the hand and slid into the metal friction sound of the barrel.
Tom.
A shell burst out of the muzzle and flew into the sky
The piercing scream resounded above the ridge
Under the ground of the eight-way formation on the cliff, a column of surging smoke was pulled away by the mountain wind, and then a loud noise was heard.

boom.
The ground underfoot trembled.

Artillery observers chirp again.
More than a dozen mortar shells were stuffed into the barrel.

Tom.
It seemed that there was only one sound, and it seemed that there were more than a dozen sounds, and the sounds were mixed together.
The gunpowder smoke produced by the propellant began to permeate the artillery positions, and the choking smell of gunpowder poured into the lungs of the artillerymen, which stimulated the devil artillerymen to scream, and the second round of mortars was inserted into the muzzle.
Boom. Boom.
The screeching sound continued to irritate the eardrums.

A column of smoke began to billow near the cliff.

The ground trembled again and again, dust arose, bushes flew across, and gravel splashed.
It collapses radially from the explosion point in the horizontal direction, and falls vertically when it reaches a high place.

Part of it hadn't touched the ground yet, and was rolled over by a new round of explosions, and scattered again.

The mountain wind seems to have tried its best, but it still can't take away all the smoke and dust.

In the lens of Lieutenant Guizi's telescope, the desolate cliffs are completely shrouded in gunpowder smoke, and only a rough outline can be seen.

Although Balu was hiding in a hiding place, several gray figures were thrown out of the hiding place.

The distance was too far, and the sound of the explosion covered up Tubalu's screams before he died.

Some regrets!

In front of the invincible imperial army, everything is scum.

The lieutenant felt that it was only a matter of time before this battle was won, just like countless previous battles.
A hundred meters behind the camp, Hu Yi hid behind a rock and held up a binoculars. He felt uncomfortable all over his body, and his skin felt like needles.

Every time you are shelled, your bones and joints will itch from the sound of shell explosions and shock waves.

This is very similar to the thrill of reaching a high point in a dream, a kind of uncontrollable deep-seated excitement in the brain scalp, and I am so excited that I start to gasp.
Many figures were blown away, mixed with the screams from afar in the explosion, his indifferent eyes trembled from time to time, and his heart seemed to constrict in pain
The devil's artillery was too accurate, causing at least ten casualties!
He Gensheng took several people, dragged a stretcher and crawled on the ground to get busy.

Soon, the diffuse gunpowder smoke made him unable to see clearly the specific situation on the battlefield.
"Report to the Battalion Commander, the position of the Devil's artillery position has been roughly calculated, how many shots should we fire?" Wan, who was squatting next to him, rubbed his hands, his eyes were shining, and he couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart.

Hu Yi nodded.

Wan ran away sideways with the thin cat on his waist.

After jumping to a mortar that had been prepared earlier, he stretched out his raised thumb to confirm the position again.

Hand stretched to the side: "No. [-] charge, shell"

A mortar shell with a strip of white propellant wrapped around the tail was passed into his hand.

Wan's eyes couldn't help turning red.

The image of the shelling of the cliff position more than [-] meters ahead was reflected in his red eyes.

Through the gunpowder smoke, the location further away that also has gunpowder smoke is his target.

The shells slid into the barrel with an exciting metallic sound.

Tom.
The mortar seat trembled suddenly, and a cloud of dust rose around the seat.

A screeching sound quickly went away.

Wan Baxi quickly picked up the binoculars prepared by the soldiers next to him, and looked at the approximate landing point of the shells sent by him.

The gunpowder smoke filled with artillery shells fired from the devil's position approached, and a column of smoke suddenly appeared.
far away.
Wan carefully dropped the telescope and immediately adjusted the height.
Then stretched out his hand: "No. [-] charge. Five rounds of rapid speed."

The soldiers next to him handed over the prepared shells.

Tom. Shhh.
A mortar fired.
Tom. Tom.
Five black dots rushed to the sky one after another
"Move the position." Wan finished his yelling, but raised the binoculars again.
