Beacon starts from the departure of a strong man

Chapter 304 Counterattack
The Sichuan Army chose to attack Pingyao City at night.

At the headquarters of the 386th Brigade, Brigadier Chen also issued a combat order to prevent enemy reinforcements.

Don't let the Japanese army pass through their defense zone!

Old Li pulled Yu Hua up and ran to Zhao Village in a hurry.

Since there is a war, why should he stay at the brigade headquarters? This is the order of the brigade commander himself.

He, Old Li, did not attack without asking for instructions!

After a three-hour journey, Lao Li finally returned to the battalion headquarters.

He took a breath, "Huzi... Huzi..."

"battalion commander!"

"you call me!"

Huzi came to Yu Hua.

"go……"

"Issue combat missions to each company commander, and the whole battalion will gather in 10 minutes."

"Yes!" Huzi saluted, turned and left.

After Yu Hua returned to Zhao Village, he also assembled the team.

Naturally, the Sichuan army could not be absent from this battle.

The college students who were rescued last time.

They were also attracted by Yu Hua's heroic temperament and took the initiative to join the Sichuan Army.

In this battle, Yu Hua did not intend to send student soldiers to the battlefield, but left a platoon of soldiers behind.

Take care of this group of student soldiers! !

Two hours later!
Yu Hua and Li Yunlong led the team to a herringbone fork in the road.

This route is the only way for the Japanese army.

It was getting dark quickly.

Wang Mingzhang's 122nd Division, taking advantage of the night, soon arrived outside the city of Pingyao.

This time when attacking Pingyao City, the division belonged to the artillery battalion, and an artillery position was set up on the reverse slope of a hillside outside the city.

According to previous investigations, the defenders in the city consisted of two infantry squadrons and one cavalry squadron.

There are only a few mortars, and there are no Type [-] infantry guns and Type [-] mountain guns.

The artillery of the 122nd Division is enough to crush the little devils!

After the artillerymen got the coordinates, they adjusted the muzzle one after another, and now everything is ready.

Just wait for the teacher's order!
Chen Gan came to Wang Mingzhang's side, "Old Wang."

"Artillery Battalion, ready now."

"Just waiting for you to believe me."

Wang Mingzhang looked at his watch, then raised the telescope in his hand to observe.

"Order!"

"Give me shelling of important facilities in the city, and let me see the effect for 10 minutes."

The Sichuan army who sneaked into the city before had already figured out the location of the Japanese army's garrison and barracks.

After Chen Qian received Wang Mingzhang's order, he came to the hand crank phone.

Pick up the phone and shake it a few times, "Hello!"

"I'm Chen Gan, taking over the artillery battalion."

"Is it Commander Chen of the Artillery Battalion?"

"The division commander ordered, according to the previous coordinates, shelling for 10 minutes."

Cannon battalion!

Battalion Commander Chen stood at attention: "Yes!"

"Please rest assured, deputy commander, our artillery battalion will definitely complete the task."

After hanging up the phone, Battalion Commander Chen looked at the prepared artillery.

he growled.

"Every cannon!"

"Five rapid-fire shots!"

"Shoot me!"

Following Battalion Commander Chen's order, the 122nd Division's Type [-] infantry artillery and Type [-] mountain artillery.

24 Type [-] infantry guns and eight Type [-] mountain guns.

Each cannon fired five shells.

Of course, firing these five shells now is a test firing.

"Boom!!——"

After the cannon body vibrated for a while, the shells rushed into the sky, drawing arcs in the sky.

Countless shells, like meteors falling from the sky.

It kept falling towards Pingyao City!

at this time!
In the city of Pingyao, in the barracks of the Japanese army.

The shells fell, and the huge explosion sounded, directly blowing up the sleeping Japanese army and turning them on their backs.

time!
I saw the Japanese soldiers in the entire camp screaming.

Many little devils also quickly got up from the barracks at this time.

Everyone is ready to evacuate here quickly, after several battles.

They also all knew that this was the first round of shelling by the Republic of China army.

The next round of artillery fire may come soon.

The Japanese army on the fortifications!

The squad leader Ishida Saburo was talking to his subordinates about his series of atrocities in Middle Earth.

Suddenly!
The shells fired in the sky, like meteors shining in the night sky, quickly fell towards the city.

He listened to the sound on the city wall, and he knew that an artillery group had been set up outside the city.

"idiot!"

Saburo Ishida cursed angrily: "Enemy attack...Enemy attack..."

After the five shells were fired, Battalion Commander Chen immediately made adjustments.

He immediately corrected the coordinates based on the spies lurking in the city.

At this time, the Japanese troops of the two squadrons in the city also quickly assembled.

However, at this moment, Battalion Commander Chen ordered the start of large-scale shelling.

"Boom!!"

"Boom boom boom!!"

The [-]-type infantry artillery and the [-]-type mountain artillery, the shells fired at this moment are like dumplings.

Keep saying hello to Pingyao City!
The assembled two Japanese squadrons quickly collapsed under the powerful artillery fire.

As for the Jing'an Army in the city!

This unit fared worse than the Japanese, some soldiers, after hearing the gunfire.

No matter how the Japanese officers shouted, they ran like a fool, looking for a good place to hide.

In the city!

The Japanese Army Command, Yamada Ichiro is now calling to the Jinyang defenders!
"Mosimoxi..."

"Send reinforcements as soon as possible, our department was attacked by the army of the Republic of China."

"The opponent's firepower is very powerful, with 75mm mountain guns and 70mm infantry guns!"

"Quick...quick...reinforcement!!"

Just as Yamada Ichiro shouted loudly, a shell fell on the roof of the headquarters.

"Boom!" With a loud noise, the headquarters was blown down!
A log fell on Yamada Ichiro's body, directly blasting him into serious injuries.

Jinyang!

Kawagishi Wensaburo was sleeping, and his adjutant woke him up urgently.

"Your Excellency, Commander!"

"Pingyao City was ambushed by the army of the Republic of China, and now Captain Ichiro Yamada is asking us for help."

"According to Captain Yamada's description, the Republic of China army has powerful firepower, with 75mm mountain artillery and 70mm infantry artillery."

"It is estimated that its strength is no less than a division!"

Hear it!

Fumisaburo Kawagishi cursed angrily, "Bageya Road!"

"Order the nearby defenders to immediately reinforce Pingyao City."

"We must keep the food and grass of the imperial army!!"

"Hi!" Kawagishi Fumisaburo's adjutant nodded and bowed.

At this time, Kawagishi Fumisaburo no longer felt sleepy.

Pingyao City is very close to Jinyang!
He did not deploy a large number of troops, and he did not expect that the defeated army of the Republic of China would dare to fight back.

This is what Kawagishi Fumisaburo did not expect!

Since the imperial army occupied Jinyang, the Republic of China troops in the entire Jin Province have all retreated.

There is no fighting spirit at all, as long as the imperial army does not pursue, this group of Republic of China troops will be thankful.

Now I have the courage to counterattack!
This really surprised Kawagishi Bunsaburo. When did the army of the Republic of China dare to touch the tiger's whiskers.

Since the opponent dispatched a division to attack Pingyao City, Kawagishi Fumisaburo also mobilized the main force of the division to go for reinforcements.

Pingyao City is very close to Jinyang!
He believes that the imperial army will be able to hold on!
Wensaburo Kawagishi dressed up and came to the headquarters.

The Japanese army division, which had just left Jinyang City, took a train and was going to Pingyao City.

The train had just left Jinyang City, and within 10 minutes of walking, the track in front of it was gone.

The train driver who was driving braked suddenly, and three carriages still rushed out of the track.

The car that ran out of the track had a rollover, and when the Japanese commander ordered rescue, he found that two squadrons of Imperial Warriors had been killed or injured!
This happened just out of town!

This made the Japanese commander very angry. He had no choice but to march by road.
