Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

Chapter 563 The Heavy Cannon in Front of You

In Changzhi City, the gunfire in Nancheng continued. Although the death squads were small, they were distributed in every corner of Nancheng, which undoubtedly added a lot of trouble to the Japanese army.

The four gates of Changzhi were all guarded by Japanese troops. Miyata subconsciously pinned the blame on the Death Squadron, and sent more men along the road. There were more than [-] troops in Nancheng alone.

Dong Jiang, who was hiding in the dark, was a little puzzled when he heard the more intense gunshots, and wondered whether he should go out and do something.

Japanese Army Command.

Miyata Goichi reset the radio station of his brigade to the headquarters, but the code book of this radio station can only communicate with the infantry brigade and headquarters at the same level, but there is no code book for communicating with the Japanese army in Handan and North China.

"Baga!" Miyata looked at the burned code book in front of him, and felt that after the imperial army occupied Changzhi, everything went wrong.

"Sir, we have lost contact with the pursuing troops!" The little devil's telegraph operator stood up and said.

After witnessing the chaos in Changzhi City, Miyata Goichi immediately wanted to call the pursuit troops back: "Send someone to notify immediately, the pursuit troops will return as soon as possible!"

"Hi!" The adjutant at the side responded.

Immediately, Miyata Goichi said to the telegraph operator: "Notify the Jiangtian Brigade in Licheng, send people to Dongyang Pass, contact Handan, report the situation in Changzhi to General Gangcun, and ask for tactical guidance!"

Many of Miyata Goichi's arrangements can only be said to be quite satisfactory, but they lack the sensitivity of the battlefield. So far, they still don't understand that Changzhi has become a dead place.

Outside the city, twelve Type 150 105mm howitzers of the Japanese army are deployed at the North Gate, and twelve Type [-] [-]mm cannons are deployed at the West Gate.

The black hole muzzle, the huge shape makes people look at it, and it can be called the god of war.

The Japanese Heavy Artillery Wing belongs to the Type A Wing in terms of staffing. It has two brigades and six squadrons, a total of 24 heavy artillery pieces, and the number is about 1300.

Originally, only officers and non-commissioned officers in the artillery units of the Japanese army were equipped with Nambu Type [-] pistols as self-defense weapons. However, before the departure from Beiping this time, Okamura Ningji specially equipped each squadron's ammunition squad with Type [-] rifles.

On a small hill four or five miles away from the Japanese artillery position, Xu Dali and Yang Han led a few soldiers to observe the Japanese position ahead.

I saw Xu Dali holding a [-]-style [-]x binoculars, and the corner of his mouth almost screamed: "That's great, the little devil is really rich, that's great!"

At the same time, Yang Han looked at the official Zeiss binoculars in his hand, which is commonly used in the national army, and said dissatisfiedly: "Old Xu, I can't see clearly, give me your binoculars!"

"Hey, they are all six-fold binoculars, why don't you use them? If you want me to say, in terms of quality, it's better than the kid's stuff!"

Both of them are hard-working men, after getting along these few days, their intimacy has become full in an instant. ,

Without waiting for Xu Dali to agree, Yang Han directly snatched the binoculars from Xu Dali's hand: "Damn it, the Japanese army has only five heavy artillery brigades, and this time they attacked Changzhi with a heavy artillery brigade. It really cost money, 12 150 caliber howitzers, 12 105 caliber cannons, good things, the government bought a batch of heavy artillery from the Germans, and formed two artillery regiments!"

"Look, the little devil's artillery is cleaning it, hey, look at it, this job is really delicate!" Yang Han looked cold, but in fact he was a little bit talkative. He was like this in the Whampoa Military Academy, but he arrived at the Whampoa Military Academy. After being in the army, as an officer, there is no use for him.

"Fuck it, it will be in our hands in a while. Let me tell you, I have issued a military order from my superiors. I didn't win a big battle this time. I have to bring at least six heavy artillery back to have an explanation!"

"Tell the soldiers later, move faster, don't let the little devils blow up the cannon, it's better to get a few more little devils to send artillery back!" Xu Dali muttered to the side.

"Huh!" Yang Han snorted after hearing this: "It's not as easy as you said, there is an open field in front of you, and before the soldiers approach, the little devils on the city wall will shoot to warn!"

"Hey, just wait and see, I have a solution!"

The words were divided into two parts. After Jing Dagang got the order, he immediately led a group away from the headquarters and went south for reinforcements.

Just halfway through the rapid march of a regiment, a fast horse came galloping from the south: "Is it a regiment? Is it a regiment?"

After the correspondent was confirmed, he shouted: "I am the correspondent of the third regiment, take me to the commander Jing!"

Looking at the messenger who was running over, Jing Dagang couldn't help asking: "Is there any emergency?"

"Great victory ahead, the regiment headquarters can't contact you with the radio, the regiment leader asked me to inform you that the regiment is going to reinforce!" the correspondent said anxiously.

"Okay, I got it!"

After the correspondent left, Jing Dagang saw a group of soldiers running blushing and thick-necked, and couldn't help cursing: "Damn it, I woke up so early that I didn't even eat something hot."

"Leader, what shall we do?" Li Ziwen, a political commissar of the regiment, asked.

"Implement the No. [-] plan, the troops will return to Changzhi, attack the south gate of Changzhi, and create opportunities for the brother troops in the west and north directions!" Jing Dagang said immediately.

"Political commissar, I will go first with the main force, and you stay with the regiment headquarters and guard company, and report to the headquarters the movement of our regiment!"

"it is good!"

Although Zhou Weihan had been thinking about the heavy artillery of the Japanese army early in the morning, he could still tell which was more important. The primary goal was to destroy the vital forces of the Japanese army. After learning that the Japanese army's pursuit troops had left the city, he immediately sent a regiment to reinforce them.

As long as they can annihilate the Japanese chasing troops, the devils in Changzhi are the meat on the chopping board, and they can eat whatever they want.

At around three o'clock that day, a group of the Eighth Route Army suddenly swaggered up outside the south city of Changzhi, and under the watchful eyes of the Japanese army, several [-]-type infantry artillery were set up.

"Let it go!" A round of shells flew towards the fortifications of the city wall, and exploded near the city wall in an instant.

Fortunately, the wooden bridge at the south city gate was closed early in the morning, but seeing the Eighth Route Army suddenly appearing in front of them, the little devils on the city wall were still panicked.

"Nani? A large group of Eighth Route Army appeared in the south of the city?" Miyata was also shocked when he heard it, which meant that the pursuing troops might have encountered an accident.

"Immediately let the search troops from Nancheng go to the fortifications of the city wall. The Eighth Route Army must not be allowed to enter the city. The three patrol teams from Beicheng must concentrate near the headquarters!" Miyata gave an order.

"Sir, what about the heavy artillery regiment outside the city? If it is attacked by the Eighth Route Army, it will be there then." The adjutant on the side reminded.

After hearing this, Miyata frowned. At this time, the bulky large-caliber heavy artillery became a burden instead.

The east and south city gates are wooden bridges, tractors and heavy artillery can't get in, and the west and north city gates are even more impassable.

"Baga, notify the artillery unit to strengthen their vigilance!"
