The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 1147: The brigade leader lost a lot because of a small thing (first update)

"Woooooooooooo...boom..."

The shells passed over the city with a scream, and hit the battlefield between the enemy and ourselves steadily.

Fires shot into the sky, thick smoke billowed, and countless soldiers were blown away along with the soil on the ground. Thunderous explosions spread across the battlefield at the same time, deafening.

To be honest, Huang Yu didn't expect this move from the Japs.

A group and a half of the Japs had 1,400 or 500 people. As a result, the Japs in the city gave up as soon as they gave up and directly used them as bait to severely injure the attacking troops they sent.

This shows how ruthless the Japanese brigade commander was. In order to achieve his goal, the lives of more than a thousand soldiers under his command were not a big deal in his eyes, and he would give them up.

The Japanese could indeed severely damage the attacking troops of the Sole Brigade by doing this, but Huang Yu was not unprepared.

He brought more than 20 heavy artillery pieces and more than 40 mountain artillery pieces and field artillery pieces. He was ready to fire well in advance of the operation to deal with possible accidents on the battlefield.

Now the Japanese artillery exposed their targets in advance, giving Huang Yu a good opportunity to destroy them all in one battle.

If he could really kill the Japanese artillery before the general attack, he would be able to use artillery fire to suppress the Japanese and puppet troops during the subsequent attack. The casualties of the troops in the siege battle would definitely be much smaller.

At the enemy headquarters of the 1st Brigade, Huang Yu grabbed the microphone next to him when he received the news that the attacking troops were covered by Japanese artillery fire!

This is a phone specifically connected to artillery positions.

Although the radio station is no longer a rare treasure in the Sixth Army Division of the Wing.

Although the Japanese army only equipped troops at the brigade level with radio stations, the number of radio stations equipped by the troops began to increase geometrically at the regiment level and above.

Because the wing headquarters and brigade headquarters may send troops out for maneuver at any time, in order to facilitate command, even if these mobile troops only have two squadrons, the headquarters will equip them with radio stations.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, in addition to the three brigades each of a main wing of the Japanese army is equipped with two radios (one of which is spare), the wing headquarters is equipped with two high-power radios, and generally two to three mobile radios are strengthened, plus When you get up, you will go up ten steps.

A main brigade is equipped with at least thirty radio stations in total.

Although many radio stations were destroyed in the battle or bombed by the Japanese themselves, the Yizhong Eighth Route Army still captured many during the battle.

In addition to the radio stations captured by the Yizhong Eighth Route Army when they captured a large number of counties and strongholds occupied by the Japanese, the number of radio stations equipped by the entire Yizhong Sixth Army division has exceeded fifty.

Radio stations are equipped at the basic regiment level and above, and all important battalion-level stations are also equipped with radio stations.

Like heavy artillery regiments and special forces regiments, basically every battalion is equipped with a radio.

Although radio stations are very convenient and can communicate with each other anytime and anywhere, they are not as convenient as telephone calls because they need to translate messages.

Therefore, as long as the distance is not too far, in order to quickly contact the other party, everyone generally prefers to make a phone call.

"Report to the headquarters, this is an artillery position..." The expectant report of his subordinates soon came from the phone receiver.

Huang Yu didn't waste any time and directly ordered: "I am Huang Yu..."

"I request the artillery unit to immediately mobilize all mountain artillery and heavy artillery to launch an artillery counterattack against the Japanese artillery unit in the city. The faster the better, and try to kill the Japanese artillery unit in the city for me."

"Promise to complete the task..." The person who answered the phone on the other side was also a cheerful person. He hung up the phone after shouting these five words.

Huang Yu put down the phone at the same time and turned his attention to the map again.

…………

Japanese Army Baoding Garrison Headquarters.

The chief of staff was personally answering calls from the garrison in the north of the city. Listening to the report on the microphone, he didn't know whether to be happy or sad, his expression was very complicated.

After listening for a full minute, he put down the microphone, considered his tone for a moment and reported: "Your Excellency, Commander..." "Report from the garrison in the north of the city: The artillery unit hit the first target and successfully covered the battlefield where the enemy and we were fighting with artillery fire. A large number of Eighth Route Army troops were under artillery fire. He was killed and injured in the bombing..."

"Our soldiers also suffered heavy losses."

"But because there were more Eighth Route Army troops on the battlefield than we did, their casualties were obviously more than ours."

"in addition……"

"The Eighth Route Army that besieged our attacking troops has begun to show signs of retreat after being covered by artillery fire. Maybe this artillery raid can help many of the attacking troops return to Xiongxian County..."

Relatively speaking, this is the only good news among several news that the chief of staff thinks.

The brigade leader seemed to think so too. He sighed and said, "The Chinese have a saying that puts one's life on the line to survive. I was a little confused before, but now I finally understand."

"As long as we fight hard enough and fight to the end with the Eighth Route Army with the determination to die, unless the Eighth Route Army is also desperate, we will definitely be able to find a way out."

"Let the artillery continue to bomb me..."

"The Eighth Route Army that besieged the attacking troops certainly didn't expect that we would cut off our warriors. They would rather drag them into the water without the more than a thousand elite troops they besieged."

"Unless they are prepared for more than 3,000 troops to be severely damaged by our artillery troops, they will definitely withdraw from the battle, and the attacking troops will have the opportunity to quickly break away from the battle and withdraw to the county."

This time the chief of staff didn't hesitate.

Being able to severely damage the besieging troops of the Eighth Route Army and rescue the attacking troops from despair was a good thing that could not be achieved even if it were pie in the sky. He had no reason to refuse.

"Boom boom boom..."

The explosions coming from outside the city were getting denser and more intense, and the brigade commander could hear them clearly even while guarding the headquarters.

At this moment, he only had one idea: the artillery troops should quickly blast away the Eighth Route Army that was besieging the attacking troops.

From time to time, he turned to look at the phone, hoping to receive good news from the north of the city as soon as possible.

"Rumble..."

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

The phone ring that the brigade leader was anxiously waiting for did not ring as promised. Instead, he waited for a series of close-range explosions.

The impact point was very close to the headquarters, and everyone could clearly feel the vibration and shock wave from the explosion.

The brigade leader was stunned. His eyes widened for a long time and he didn't react.

The chief of staff reacted quickly. His face turned pale and he shouted: "No... something happened to the artillery unit..."

"Your Majesty Commander, we forgot that the Eighth Route Army also has an artillery unit and is equipped with a large number of heavy artillery."

"If the two sides really fight, we may not be their opponent. In the end, we completely exposed the artillery unit to the Eighth Route Army, which is really inappropriate..."

The brigade commander finally reacted and immediately ordered: "Hurry up and notify the artillery to move...quickly..."

"They must not have any accidents, otherwise there will be no need to defend Xiong County..."
