War of Resistance

Chapter 834 Jiujiang Defense Battle ([-])

"Yes! Battalion Commander!" The battalion staff officer responded.

Not long after, a battalion soldier ran to Xie Chengkun and reported: "Report to the battalion commander, there is an order from the regiment, there is no need to reveal too much deployment of troops. Wait until the enemy approaches before attacking."

"Understood, go back and tell the regiment headquarters that our battalion will definitely live up to the high expectations of the regiment, and focus on 'taking care' of the Japanese troops ahead!" Xie Chengkun ordered.

"Yes! Battalion Commander!" The battalion staff officer responded.

……

This defensive battle was not considered too intense. Generally speaking, the Japanese army did not invest much, and the national army's counterattack was not too strong.

At least, the heavy machine gun did not fire, and the counterattacks were basically light machine guns plus rifles.

After realizing that the national army didn't seem to have any heavy firepower, Soda Hirojun began to throw out all the troops in his hands like a bet—I saw him confidently pulling out the samurai sword at his waist, and shouted loudly : "Ke! Pass my order! All troops, launch a full-speed attack immediately!!!"

"Hay!!!" Hundreds of crazy Japanese soldiers responded in unison, and then slowly put on the plaster, with slogans such as "Long live the dog emperor" and "Long luck of martial arts" written on both sides, which looked really good. Something like that.

I saw these Japanese soldiers who put on the slogan on the head, and immediately charged forward as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

If you use the words of later generations, it is like taking a stimulant.

Looking at these Japanese soldiers who were as excited as if they had taken a stimulant in the binoculars, Xie Chengkun immediately returned to the headquarters and picked up the phone: "Hey, pick up the artillery unit for me right away! This is the front line of the No. 60 Regiment!"

The call was connected quickly, and it was Zhao Chengge, commander of the Artillery Battalion of the First Guard Regiment of the Ninth War Zone, who answered the phone. He said directly, "Hello, this is the Artillery Battalion of the First Guard Regiment of the Ninth War Zone, who is it?"

"Hey, Battalion Commander Zhao, our No. 60 Regiment's front-line position requests artillery fire support! Please provide artillery fire support to us immediately!" Xie Chengkun said very seriously.

"Okay, no problem! Please be sure to withstand the Japanese attack!" After finishing speaking, Zhao Chengge hung up the phone directly.

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Chengge strode out of the artillery headquarters immediately, and shouted loudly with his hands on his hips: "Listen, all brothers! Immediately, prepare to launch a heavy artillery attack on the No. 60 regiment's front line! Ten rapid-fire rounds! Do it now!"

"Yes, sir!!!"

The officers and soldiers on the artillery position immediately responded loudly.

For the officers and soldiers of these artillery units, they usually don't have to go to the front line battlefield, so they can only suppress or even kill the Japanese army by firing artillery shells.

The artillery in their hands is their weapon, their weapon against Japan!
Zhang Tianhai, who was watching them from the side, kept staring at Zhao Chengge, just to see the latter's ability.

Although in terms of artillery, the police [-]st regiment did not have any competent candidates except Zhao Chengge, but Zhang Tianhai still wanted to continue to see the ability of his artillery battalion commander.

Facts have proved that Zhao Chengge, the battalion commander, is quite qualified—whether in terms of professional skills or other aspects, he belongs to the category that is too qualified to be qualified.

"Bang!!!"

"Bang!!!"

"Bang!!!"

With the sound of intensive artillery fire, shells exploded from the muzzles of the eight artillery pieces on the artillery battalion position of the First Police Regiment, forming shining spots of light in the air, and then slammed toward No.60 group of frontline positions were smashed.

Eight cannons, this is already a large-scale artillery battalion, no one would have thought that there were still four cannons hidden in the police regiment, and the sword had never been drawn.

It is precisely because eight artillery pieces are already quite large for a conventional artillery battalion, so this did not make the No. 11 division doubtful.

Soon, with the screaming sound of shells piercing the air, one shell after another slammed into the front of the Japanese army's charge, and the front immediately became a sea of ​​flames.

So Tian Guangjun, who was originally ambitious and wanted to break through the national army's position, was immediately dumbfounded. He didn't expect that the national army, which was always at a disadvantage, would have such heavy fire support as artillery!
"Nani..." Zuotian Guangjun was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted: "Retreat! Retreat!! Suspend the attack!!"

However, at this time, who else would hear his shout amidst the rumble of cannons?

During the rapid-fire bombing of these dozens of shells, the Japanese army who was caught off guard began to suffer a large number of casualties.

Xie Chengkun, the battalion commander of the No. 60 [-]st regiment who was in the observation room of the artillery fire, after witnessing the whole situation, immediately said to the officers and soldiers next to him loudly: "Immediately send my order, and after the artillery fire ceases, immediately organize troops to launch a counterattack." Charge! Grandma, these little devils are thinking about bombarding us day after day, now it's their fault, we want to wipe out the hundreds of Japanese troops in front of us!!"

"Yes, sir!!"

Hearing the officer's rhetoric, these national army officers and soldiers also responded one after another. After all, they are all carrying a head on their shoulders, and they are all born and raised by their parents. Let's see who is afraid of whom?

Just when the gunpowder smoke stopped, countless high-spirited national army officers and soldiers rushed to the front line. What they wanted was "take your life while you are sick"!
The extremely sharp bayonet gleamed brightly in the sun, full of murderous intent!
They want to use the weapons in their hands to launch a fatal blow to the Japanese army!
"Da da da da da da~ da da da da da~"

"Rush!! Kill!!!"

With the sound of a melodious charging horn, countless officers and soldiers of the national army shouted slogans and began to charge forward, and the sound of killing shook the sky!
Denbu Hirota is an ordinary soldier from Kyushu. Today, he followed the captain of the battalion, Hiroshi Soda, to launch an attack on the national army. When he set off, he was in a state of "valiant and high-spirited, and he will not stop until he breaks the enemy's front line".

However, the premise of all this is that the firepower on his side can obtain overwhelming firepower, the most basic thing is heavy firepower.

In terms of light firepower, the Japanese army is indeed superior to the national army, and the individual combat capability is indeed strong. Coupled with repeated victories on the front line, the Japanese army's self-confidence is unprecedentedly inflated.

Thus, a tragedy happened——when the Japanese army charged enthusiastically, one round of shells slammed into their charge formation with screams.

The violent explosion set off a hot shock wave, and the shock wave lifted the surrounding mud and rocks. Under the blessing of the shock wave, the mud and rocks rushed towards the surrounding Japanese troops densely and quickly like countless bullets.

If some Japanese troops did not respond in time, they would have already fallen into a pool of blood-the shock wave itself is also powerful!
For example, Hirota Denbu belonged to that type of people with extremely fast reactions, so he survived.

But even if he survived, the consequences would be extremely disastrous, such as dizziness and tinnitus.

Hirota Denbu had a hunch that he encountered a well-equipped and well-trained enemy force!

During this sudden and very violent shelling, nearly half of the Japanese army fell in this shelling. It is true that the Japanese army is well-trained, and it is true that they have strong military qualities in all aspects, but they are always flesh and blood!
Of course, the result of only half of the people falling down is already very good.

When Hirota Denbu finally recovered, he was surprised to find that the opposite Chinese army had already launched the most violent charge against them!

……

At this moment, the curtain of the defense of Jiujiang has been slowly opened!
