The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

The shell flew out of the barrel of the Japanese mountain cannon, drawing a parabolic trajectory in the air.

And when they flew to the hill, most of them landed on the top of the mountain, and those who didn't land on the top of the mountain flew past the top of the mountain and landed on the other side of the mountain, which was where they were hiding.

But because the hillside was relatively steep, it was impossible for the cannonball to fall vertically from above their heads, and the cannonball would fly to a place tens of meters away from them and explode according to its usual trajectory.

The above is Liu Chengyi's imaginary use of anti-cannon on the reverse slope.

So don't look at the Japanese cannons firing very lively, but the shells were either blocked by the mountain and exploded above the head, or fell tens of meters away, after all, they could not cause too much damage to them.

And that's what backslopes do.

Liu Chengyi really didn't expect Shang Zhen to learn how to use the reverse slope, but he himself has no experience in this area!
"This Shang Zhen is interesting. He's clever!" Chief of Staff Li Xiang praised him, and Liu Chengyi smiled to show his affirmation.

At this moment, those people down the mountain heard Shang Zhen yelling again from the top of the mountain: "Don't be all on the top of the mountain, a total of dozens of devils have just arrived, we don't need so many people.

The rest of the people hastened to dig a hole for me under the steep slope on the upper half of the mountain!If the little devil bombards again, it won't be as easy to hide as this time! "

Shang Zhen's shout, of course, can also be regarded as an order, which once again affirmed Liu Chengyi's judgment. Shang Zhen really has experience, not that it is purely blind to go to the doctor when he is ill under the shelling of the Japanese army. Dodged the Japanese shelling.

Liu Chengyi didn't realize that in terms of being well-informed on the battlefield, he really couldn't compare to a veteran like Shang Zhen.

After all, the Northeast Army is its own series, if there is not a big battle, how can the theater headquarters transfer troops at the division and brigade level to fight.

It's not like Shang Zhen and the others often fought with the Japanese and puppet troops, and Shang Zhen and the others met many people from other factions, and the people from the Northeast were born familiar with each other, and chatted with whoever they caught, so Shang Zhen and the others I know a lot of miscellaneous knowledge!
And this is where the so-called veterans are precious.

"Come on, let's go up and have a look!" Liu Chengyi suddenly stood up and said.

"Ah?" Li Xiang was stunned for a moment, just now Liu Chengyi said that Shang Zhen and the others should be fine if they are guarding the position here, so they plan to go back to the command post, why do they have to go to the front in person?

"Brigade Commander!" one of the personal guards shouted.

As a guard, he certainly didn't want the brigade commander to go forward, it was too dangerous, their guards could die, but if the brigade commander died for his country, it would be a big deal!
"Go away, I can't even look at it?" Liu Chengyi showed the majesty of the brigade commander.

Seeing that the brigade commander was going to get angry, the two guards rushed forward, which meant to stand in front of Liu Chengyi.

It's just that the two of them are fast, but Da Laoban and Gu Man are faster than the two of them, and they have already gone up the mountain!

According to Shang Zhen's order, the members of the guard company had already dug a hole at the bottom of a steep slope halfway up the mountain.

Although the reverse slope is good, it is an expedient measure after all. If you want to survive the more intense Japanese artillery fire, of course, you need to make simple fortifications on the reverse slope.

Shang Zhen and the others don't have any tools now, so the soldiers can only use bayonets to dig. Fortunately, this mountain is a dirt mountain, and there are not many stones on it.

But in this way, how could the fortification be dug fast?
Sure enough, when Liu Chengyi climbed halfway up the mountain, he heard some soldiers complaining: "What the hell, I don't even have a shovel! When will I have to dig this?"

"Even if you dig a hole as big as your butt, you can stick your head inside and there will be less exposed outside. Maybe the shrapnel won't touch you!" A soldier persuaded by the side.

"So I'm talking nonsense, I don't want to dig up the mountain to fight devils!" At this time their platoon leader spoke.

It was only after the platoon leader finished speaking that he hurriedly said: "Brigade Commander! Chief of Staff!" It was Liu Chengyi and Li Xiang who had crawled in front of him when he arrived.

Liu Chengyi waved his hand to indicate that he didn't need to salute, and then he continued to walk up the mountain, but the ones walking in front of them were still the old man and Gu Man.

The soldiers on the mountainside were digging fortifications, but when Liu Chengyi and the others climbed to the top of the mountain, no one paid any attention to them, even though the veterans under Shang Zhen saw Liu Chengyi and Li Xiang coming up.

The soldiers held their rifles one by one, but they all leaned behind the small ridgeline, regardless of whether the rifles or the box guns were loaded.

"The little devil should be very close." Li Xiang reminded in a low voice.

But at this moment, Liu Chengyi was a little strange looking at these veterans ambushing on the top of the mountain. These people rarely poked their heads out of the ridgeline!
So where is the devil?Don't these soldiers need to aim?

Liu Chengyi then scanned the top of the mountain, and saw a soldier lying behind a tree in an inconspicuous place in front of him with his head slightly poked out.

I just don't know if that soldier is an observation post or a commander, but where is that boy Shang Zhen?
But at this time, Liu Chengyi noticed that the two big soldiers who had come up in front of them had already got down, and a soldier was gesturing to silence them.

It has been a while since someone on the mountain shouted that the little devil is coming up, until Shang Zhen gave the order, and then Liu Chengyi and the others climbed up the mountain.

And at this time, Liu Chengyi suddenly heard someone yelling "Fight!" like thunder, and then those veterans who were leaning behind the ridgeline of the hill suddenly stood up and turned around, and then the gunshots "Papa", "chug", "pop", "pop" and "pop" sounded!

It all happened so suddenly, the soldiers stood up to meet them, but Liu Chengyi, Li Xiang and their two guards were standing with their waists bowed. When the battle order "fight" was yelled, the four of them stood up. They also instinctively fell down, and at the same time quickly put their pistols on fire.

At this time, Liu Chengyi couldn't help yelling "ashamed" again, and the soldiers exposed their bodies and started shooting at the Japanese army, but although the four of them also had guns in their hands, what's the use?

Not to mention, as far as Liu Chengyi's hand can hit 100 meters, even if they want to shoot now, they don't even know where the Japanese army has arrived!
"Brigade Commander, I think we should go down?" Li Xiang whispered to the side.

He also felt a little uncomfortable. The soldiers were risking their lives to fight devils, but why did he feel that these four people were a little redundant?
Of course, it can also be said that Liu Chengyi is the chief officer of an army of thousands of people after all. In fact, there is no need for him to come forward in person, at least Li Xiang thinks so.

Li Xiang thought to himself that he was looking at Liu Chengyi's expression. He saw that Liu Chengyi's expression was a little cloudy, but then he climbed to the left side of the mountain top.

This is going to be a haha, isn't the brigade commander going to take two shots, right?Li Xiang thought to himself but could only crawl on his stomach.

Gunshots kept ringing, and bullets flying from down the mountain hit Liu Chengyi and the others not far above their heads, but Liu Chengyi didn't care, but just crawled in the direction he thought.

Although Liu Chengyi and Li Xiang didn't stretch their heads to look forward even now, but this time the battle was obviously going on very quickly, and after a while the gunshots became sparse.

Liu Chengyi, who was always at the foot of the mountain, didn't notice that Shang Zhen had brought a few light machine guns from the guard company up the mountain!

However, the Japanese army bombarded this hill with cannons before. It should not have been expected that all the Chinese troops hid on the reverse slope and suffered little damage. Therefore, this attack should be careless, and they must have been caught off guard by Shang Zhen.

"Pa" was another gunshot, which caught Li Xiang's attention, because when he climbed here with Liu Chengyi, he was already on the edge of the mountain top, but this gunshot was right below them.

Li Xiang crawled forward again and followed Liu Chengyi to look down. He saw two soldiers whose bodies were covered with tree branches were lying there more than one meter below.

From their current position, they could see the back of the two soldiers' heads and the rifle in front.

"Search carefully, and kill immediately if you find it. The little devil's sharpshooter is too accurate. If one more of them survives, our people will be in great danger!" At this time, a soldier below said in a low voice.

The voice of the speaker, Liu Chengyi and Li Xiang, of course sounded familiar, because it was Shang Zhen.
