Rise from eight hundred.

Chapter 473

If it wasn't for the icy autumn wind blowing on the wet face of the Major General of the Japanese Army, reminding us of the coldness of the world, Mitsuru Ushijima might think that he is still in a nightmare.

It's not a nightmare, why would Mao become like this?

Three hours ago, he was still thinking vigorously about how to destroy the Chinese army that was at the end of the road, and how to make the skull of the Chinese commander that he hated so much as a souvenir and hang it in his military account , I also thought that I would be promoted to the head of the lieutenant general and division, and send the division south to establish immortal achievements.

But now it's only been a mere three hours, and those ambitions are gone with the wind, not to mention, how come the thousands of troops under his command are almost gone?

The gap between fantasy and reality is so huge that this Japanese army major general who has always thought highly of himself stood in the autumn wind for more than 10 minutes.

Until the artillery fire raging in the wilderness continued for no money, Ushi Daoman turned his horse's head melancholy, and fled further into the wilderness with his escort squadron.

The long siren for the assembly resounded in the wilderness, but the number of Japanese troops who could run over to gather with the mournful Japanese army major general was far beyond his imagination.

It's not that they were all killed by these consecutive rounds of artillery fire, but that most of the Japanese troops were in a panic and avoided the shells that might fall on their foreheads first.

In addition to the direction of the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade, there are small units of the 36th Infantry Brigade in the other three directions, and the one that ran the farthest even ran to the defense zone of the No.18 Division.

If it wasn't for the sentinels of the No.18 division repeatedly confirming in Japanese, and even asking the other party's name several times, an infantry squad in charge of stationing in the area would definitely call in the main force of its own team to make that call more than 100 The human 'khaki' was wiped out as a Chinese infiltration force.

Otherwise, who can believe that this group of guys who claim to be the 6th Infantry Brigade of the 36th Division, when did the imperial infantry become so embarrassed?

But the fact is that, facing the same shit yellow under the searchlights, the infantry of the "strongest division on the surface" who voluntarily dropped their guns did not have the arrogance of the strongest division.Their arrogance was annihilated by the bullets and artillery fire of the Chinese soldiers on that small position. At this moment, they just want to live, even under the wing of the newly built division that they usually don't think much of.

The Japanese artillery, including Akiichi Komura, had never been so comfortable. Tang Dao ordered them to bring over 900 rounds of shells.

That means that a gun needs to fire 150 rounds, the number of ammunition prepared for a campaign.

For three full hours, the sound of artillery on the 3th Heavy Artillery Brigade's position never stopped.

Because, the coordinates of the bombardment transmitted to the Tangdao headquarters were not only in front of the blocking positions of the two garrison battalions, but also the infantry regiment blocked on the defense line that the advance regiment must return to Jiashan.

More than 2500 infantrymen built a simple field position along the field of seven or eight kilometers, waiting for the advance regiment to crash in, but in the end they were attacked by at least [-] Chinese infantry from two infantry regiments in the direction of the Jiashan defense line.

Originally, according to the strength of the infantry regiment, not to mention the two infantry regiments in China, even an infantry brigade, they are also confident to kill it, otherwise Ushishima Sadao will not easily place an infantry regiment in his own formation six kilometers away.

However, the Chinese launched the attack before nightfall. After the Japanese army fought back and wanted to attack them, the Chinese who invested in the attack actually retreated and established a field position 800 meters away. In turn, the Japanese army that turned into an attack was A little numb.

Without enough artillery support, if they want to break through the positions of the Chinese army, they must have the courage to pay a sufficient price, not to mention that it is already night, and the losses will be even greater.

When the bad news came from the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade, the Japanese army finally knew the purpose of the group of Chinese, which was just to drag them down.

Just know, the infantry regiment can only stare blankly.

The three or four thousand Chinese in front of us say that there is a lot less, and they say that there are not many. As long as they dare to spare their troops for support, they will dare to fuck you. If you smoke less, it is useless. Say it yourself, the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade will be handed over to the 36th Infantry Brigade for rescue.

In the daytime, with the help of artillery and bombers, it should not be difficult to defeat the Chinese army in front of us.

But the result was that the Japanese army didn't wait until their own artillery did not say anything, and was hit hard by a heavy artillery at night.

At that moment, the Japanese infantry unit in the position was absolutely confused up and down.

When did the Chinese have such heavy artillery?Didn't we all agree, is that the patent of the empire?

Are the Chinese about to attack?
The captain of the Japanese Infantry Regiment, who had not been beaten up by the Chinese army, obviously reacted much slower than Seto Nellie, and even issued a military order that all units of the army should not leave their positions.

Little did he know that on the opposite side of him, the Chinese troops of the two infantry regiments had quietly and alternately withdrawn their positions 10 minutes before the artillery fire came, and then ran away at the fastest speed.

Can you do it without running?
Tang Dao said in the message sent to the headquarters: "Because the shelling distance exceeds ten kilometers, and due to the calculation error of the direction and other data, our army cannot guarantee the impact of the shells. The only guarantee is the intensity of the artillery fire. Please Our troops will evacuate as quickly as possible!"

One side slipped away ahead of time, but the other side insisted on being tough. The ending of both sides can be imagined.

According to the battle report of the 18th Division after the war, the order of the captain of the infantry regiment led to the infantry under his command being bombarded by the Chinese side for about an hour.

The most terrible thing is that in the later period, Tang Daobu, who went crazy, was no longer satisfied with the 6 heavy artillery controlled by the Japanese artillery troops. Under the careful "professor" of the Japanese army, another six 6 heavy artillery pieces were controlled.

A group of Chinese artillerymen who saw heavy artillery for the first time had no problem laying the cannon horizontally for hundreds of meters. The launch deviated several kilometers, and almost failed to send away a group of Chinese infantry platoons that circled around the flank.

However, the Japanese 'instructors' were very good, and the Chinese students worked very hard. It took 10 minutes to finally adjust the aim and gradually drop the shells on the Japanese positions.

12 heavy artillery pieces plowed back and forth on the position of the Japanese infantry regiment without sparing shells.

During the more than one hour of shelling, although the unit did not say that it was directly destroyed, the damage in the battle should be unprecedented since the establishment of the infantry regiment. Even bigger.

Ushijima Sadao, who received the news, was almost sent away by the idiot under his command after receiving the news of the improvised field position and the 150 heavy artillery.

But this is not the last tragedy. The artillery fire just stopped, and the front-line infantry soldiers of the Japanese army who were blown out of their wits have not yet recovered, and found in horror that the movement on the Chinese position on the opposite side seems to be louder again. This is an attack. Rhythm.

The two sides fired flares at each other, illuminating the battlefield already covered with bomb craters, and the dark gray and dark blue of the Chinese army came back into the field of vision of the Japanese commander's telescope.

The cheered up Japanese soldiers lay down in the trenches, ready to use rifles and machine guns to give a severe lesson to the Chinese who dared to come.

Is it great to have heavy artillery?Brother has a samurai spirit that sees death as home.

However, having a heavy artillery is really a big deal.

Five minutes later, the Japanese army, who had not waited for the Chinese infantry to attack, waited for a new round of shelling.

What returned was just a Chinese infantry company with artillery observers. They just came to observe and observe the battlefield. They didn't expect the Japanese to be so awesome and alive after being bombarded for so long.

If one cannon can't solve it, then two or three.

Anyway, Tang Dao still has a lot of shells seized from the 6th Heavy Artillery Brigade, and this night is still long enough.

Just think of it as training for the artillery.

It is rare to have such a good 'instructor', so many shells, and such a resistant target.

The tragic Japanese army on this position was bombed alive for another half an hour.

Then, it collapsed!
