Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Chapter 172
The power of the 105 howitzer really opened the eyes of Zhou Weihan, a group of people who had never seen the world, and it can be said that they experienced it personally.

The soldiers on the enemy's position did not even have a chance to struggle under the artillery fire. The bodies of the enemy soldiers near the impact point of the shells were torn to pieces, and those a little further away were blown away by the shock wave of the airflow.

Two 105mm howitzers fired 40 shells indirectly, more of which were the artillery battalion's mountain artillery and the Type [-] infantry artillery.

Xu Dali looked at the enemy soldiers on the first line of defense who were bombed and turned their backs, and said: "Political commissar, this shell bombing is very enjoyable, but if you continue to fight like this, you will have a chance to play!"

As Xu Dali said, he turned around and picked up the phone: "Hi, Lao Chen, I'm Xu Dali. I'm telling you how much money you have in the artillery battalion. With the shells being fired like this, the days are numbered!"

Then Xu Dali glanced at his watch and said, "It's almost time for fire, stop shelling in three minutes, and our regiment will occupy the enemy's first line of defense first!"

Artillery troops were supposed to cooperate with infantry in combat. Hearing Xu Dali's request, Chen Feng on the other end of the phone directly agreed.

Xu Dali stared at the pointer on the dial, seeing that the time was almost up, and shouted: "Comrades, go!"

The first battalion and the second battalion of the second regiment immediately launched a charge, and the soldiers jumped out of the trenches, forming a group of three, and each combat group was separated by seven or eight meters.

The third battalion remaining in the position waited for an opportunity, ready to suppress the enemy's firepower at any time.

The troops of the two battalions successfully took down the enemy's first line of defense. At this time, the enemy troops in the first trench were either killed by bombing, or they were the second line of defense behind the rout.

Xu Dali glanced at it. The phone line hadn't been pulled yet. He ordered at that time: "Commissioner, go tell Battalion Commander Chen of the Artillery Battalion to request that the artillery fire be extended to attack the enemy's second defensive position!"

As soon as the order was issued, there was a sudden loud noise from the east, followed by flames bursting into the sky.

Zhou Weihan was in the rear, and he could feel a shock under his feet.

"Monk, send someone to ask what's going on?" Zhou Weihan said.

Not long after, the monk hurried over to report, and said sadly: "The detachment leader, the comrades of the independent brigade said that the enemy army planted a large number of explosives on the first position before retreating, and the comrades who occupied the position did not return in time. It was discovered that the enemy took the opportunity to detonate the explosives, and a battalion of soldiers died!"

"Damn it!" Zhou Weihan scolded.

The remnants of Shi Yousan gathered in the village are all his direct descendants. They fled all the way to the west, but were stopped by Ding Wei and others, and their morale was low. As a result, Shi Yousan directly pointed out that he would stay here for one night, and the Japanese reinforcements would come early tomorrow morning. arrive.

Coupled with the organization of a supervising team to supervise the battle, hundreds of people died just under the guns of the supervising team.

When our army exchanged fire with the enemy on the first line of defense, the enemy troops on the second line of defense of Shi Yousan took the opportunity to dig an air-raid shelter, and the power of the heavy artillery was greatly reduced. For a while, the precarious second line of defense of Shi Yousan was stabilized !

"Old Zhou, night battles are not easy to fight. This is all predictable. It was so easy to break through the enemy's first position before, but the enemy was unprepared and was stunned by the heavy artillery!
The headquarters have all ordered, let each regiment send people to the battlefield to harass the enemy in batches! " Zhao Gang persuaded.

"Damn it, centipede, dead but not stiff!" Zhou Weihan couldn't be reconciled after thinking about it.

Subsequently, Zhou Weihan ordered the regiments to send people into the positions in batches, so as not to give the enemy a chance to rest and breathe. ,

At around ten o'clock that night, on the battlefield, Wang Yigong's Third Battalion of the Fourth Regiment was stationed here.

Neither side fired a shot. A large cauldron was propped up in the trench, and the fat in the cauldron was boiling with soup.

The commander of the third battalion, Yang Xiansheng, was squatting beside the cauldron, his nose twitching. Although the rest of the soldiers were lying on the trench, they were all staring at the cauldron.

"Whatever you look at, I keep my eyes on the enemy army on the opposite side. It's not for us to look at it. This is what the detachment leader prepared for the opposite side! Just look at it!" Yang Xiansheng said.

"Commander, what did this team leader think? What a good thing, how can you prepare it for the enemy!" The soldier beside him said while wiping the saliva from his mouth.

"Look at your future. In the words of the detachment leader, this is called sending warmth to the enemy army on the opposite side!"

"But don't tell me, since I joined the Eighth Route Army, my life is much better than when I was in the Sichuan Army, but now I can't walk without smelling the smell of meat!" Yang Xiansheng said with emotion.

Seeing that the fire was almost ready, and a gust of south wind happened to blow, Yang Xiansheng immediately picked up the iron horn and shouted: "Brothers of the [-]th Army, we are so late now, I wonder if you have eaten yet?"

"The battle has been going on for three days, and the food and supplies are almost lost. The officers eat hot and spicy food in the village, but let you starve here,"

"It's too dishonest. We deliberately killed a big fat pig. As long as it comes over, one counts as one, and there will be meat to eat!"

As he said that, Yang Xiansheng took the chopsticks from the guard's hand, picked a piece of fat from the pot, and put it in his mouth: "Well, I really want to, my mouth is full of oil!"

Yang Xiansheng didn't know if the enemy army on the opposite side was greedy, but the guards around him were greedy, babbling non-stop, and swallowing: "Commander, take a break, let me shout something !"

"Why, I'm hungry, wait a minute, if the enemy doesn't make any movement later, our third battalion will be having meat today!" Yang Xiansheng said.

on the enemy's position.

"Damn it, it's so irritating! I've never been so angry!"

"What's the matter, Song Laolan, if you're really hungry, you can go to the opposite side to eat!" Another person said.

"You really think I'm a stick, why don't you tell me about the Eighth Route Army, you can outrun the bullets of the Superintendent's team!" Song Laolan said.

"Hehe, that's not certain. It's so dark now that you can't see people after running five or six meters. As long as the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side doesn't shoot at that time, you will be fine!"

"Besides, it's dark now, and the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army has stopped. Tomorrow, the artillery shells will definitely hit at dawn. It is said that the little devil's reinforcements will arrive early in the morning, but look at us, it is guaranteed to be cannon fodder, why not vote for the Eighth Route Army now!" Wang Ergen Said.

"Okay, brother Ergen, I'll listen to you, people like us may die at any time, I just want to eat delicious fat!"

Wang Ergen waved his hand, and the two rushed out of the trench, and disappeared into the night in a blink of an eye.

An officer of the supervisory team reacted and fired a burst of machine guns, but it didn't work, but the other enemy troops who were about to move were deterred.

"Commander of the Eighth Route Army, don't shoot, we surrender!"

Song Laolan and the two rolled into the trench and threw their guns aside.

"Sir, what you just said counts?"

"Of course it counts, guard, take him to eat meat!" Yang Xiansheng said with a big wave of his hand.

Then, under the signal of Yang Xiansheng, the two of them took turns shouting in the trench with their lunch boxes: "Brothers, I'm Song Laolan, and I'm eating meat at the Eighth Route Army commander's place, not to mention, it's delicious! "

Song Laolian puffed out his chest and shook his head.

The reason why Zhou Weihan sent Yang Xiansheng to handle this matter was because when he first joined the New Second Regiment, Zhou Weihan saw that he was full of bad water and a listless person.

The supervising team is not made of iron, and there are always times when they are negligent. Following the example of Song Laolan and Wang Ergen, the enemy from the opposite side will sneak over from time to time.

After Yang Xiansheng heard the number of people reported by the guards, he was also taken aback: "Damn it, so many people are here?"
