After Xiao Yingwu gave the order, he immediately instructed all the troops: Concentrate the artillery of each division, use the artillery to tear through the defense line of the Guards Division, and the 2nd Division and other troops immediately concentrated the artillery. It helped a lot, and self-propelled artillery galloped on the road to the firing position.

There are many mountains in Japan, and the town of Takasago happens to be on the plain beside the mountain. The plain below the mountain is a military dead zone. No commander would put troops in such a place. The same is true for Prince Zain, who put his troops on After entering the mountain on the north side of Gaosha Town, Lin Yuan's artillery unit drove into the plain of Gaosha Town and launched an artillery attack on the troops on the mountain.

When the artillery was fired, the flames lit up the sky, and the shells exploded one after another. Thick smoke and dust enveloped the entire Japanese position. The rocks were blasted by the shells, like countless sharp arrows shooting at the Japanese soldiers.

Prince Zairen hid in the command post and scolded: "Why didn't the damn Lin Yuan's troops come to attack? They only hid in the distance and used cannons. They are simply a group of cowards!"

After hearing what Prince Zairen said, the chief of staff hurriedly said: "Commander, since Lin Yuan's troops dare not attack, we might as well take the initiative to attack! What do you think?"

Prince Zairen shook his head and said, "Our attack must be focused. Has our friendly army encircled the No.30 [-]rd Amphibious Combat Division?"

The chief of staff replied: "According to the report from the friendly forces half an hour ago, our friendly forces have surrounded the No.30 [-]rd Amphibious Combat Division of Lin Yuan's troops."

Prince Zairen nodded and smiled, "Then we will focus on the No.30 [-]rd Amphibious Division on the east side, and order the main artillery tank unit to attack the east side and break through the defense line of Lin Yuan's troops."

The chief of staff said: "Good division commander, may we break out with the main artillery tank unit?"

Prince Zairen shook his head and smiled, "Breakthrough? A joke? Our Guards Division is making a piece of bait to attract more and more fat fish. Now that the fish are swimming in, is there any reason to withdraw the bait now?"

The chief of staff didn't say much, but he was muttering in his heart: "I'm afraid that those fat fish will not only eat up the bait, but also the fish!" , attacked the No.30 amphibious combat division, and the amphibious combat division immediately organized tanks to counterattack. The main artillery tanks of the Japanese army were still no match for the tanks of Lin Yuan's army. All tanks were destroyed.

However, the Japanese Guards Division still played an elite demeanor. 32 tanks of Lin Yuan's troops were destroyed, and the battle loss ratio of the two sides was close to three to one. The battle loss ratio is as high as five to one or even ten to one.

Although the Japanese army encircled No.30's third division, they also knew that the east side of the encirclement was the Guards Division. If the Guards Division could not stop the attack of Lin Yuan's troops, other units of Lin Yuan's troops would fight against No.30's troops. When the three divisions join forces, the encirclement will be lost at that time, so the Japanese troops began to attack Lin Yuan's troops desperately.

But at this time, the troops participating in the war were not elite. As for the elite Japanese troops, most of them had already been lost in North Korea and Kyushu Island. Back then, the elite Japanese troops were unable to overcome the defense line of Lin Yuan's troops. How could these troops conquer now?Not only was the Japanese army unable to conquer the defense line of Lin Yuan's troops, but they also had problems: some troops mutinied, some deserted on a large scale, and the number of people who fled and surrendered soon exceeded the number of people killed in battle.

But the Guards Division didn't know about this situation. They were still on guard in the mountains, silently enduring the raindrops of shells. At this time, behind Lin Yuan's troops, ammunition trucks were galloping on the developed roads in Japan. The shells were sent to the artillerymen, and the shells fell on the Japanese positions one after another.

At eleven o'clock in the morning on September 1, Xiao Yingwu ordered the troops after learning that the artillery unit had poured more than [-] shells: "Send out the infantry and attack with all your strength!"

Just as the order was issued, Xiao Yingwu suddenly received a call from Lin Yuan, who asked on the phone, "Why did you order the infantry to attack?"

Xiao Yingwu replied: "Report to Lin Shuai, I intend to end the battle as soon as possible."

Lin Yuan said: "What are you in a hurry for? First use artillery shells! Then surround the Japanese army. They don't have enough food, and the army will be in a mess in a few days."

Xiao Yingwu said: "But I'm worried that if time drags on, the Japanese army will conquer the No.30 Third Division's line of defense!"

Lin Yuan said: "Not to mention that the Japanese army's combat power is not enough to conquer the No.30 Third Division's defense line, even if they do conquer the defense line, so what? The entire Seto Inland Sea is under our control, and we can dispatch troops at any time Landing, or supporting the 33rd Division from the front, or outflanking the Japanese army, no matter how we fight, our army will remain invincible, what do you have to worry about?"

Xiao Yingwu hurriedly said: "Yes, Commander Lin, I understand what you mean!" Xiao Yingwu immediately changed the order to order the infantry to attack, and continued to let the artillery pour shells. At this time, Lin Yuan sent bombers to bomb the Japanese positions. , This time it was the newly established Second Division of the Air Force, which was still equipped with H-[-] bombers.

The artillery shells of the ground artillery only weighed more than 30 kilograms, but the aerial bombs weighed [-] kilograms. Naturally, the lethality of the two is not the same. An aerial bomb fell on the Japanese position, just in the middle of a battalion. The entire battalion was instantly wiped out.

The mountains where the Japanese army is located are all stone mountains, and it is impossible to dig air-raid shelters. Moreover, Lin Yuan’s troops have various artillery: not only 122mm howitzers, but also 240mm mortars, plus bombers in the sky, there are almost no shells. In a blind spot, Lin Yuan's troops bombarded the Guards Division indiscriminately for a day, and did not stop until six o'clock in the evening, when it started to get dark.

When night fell completely, Lin Yuan's troops rushed up to the peaks controlled by the Guards Division, only to find that there were no living people left on many Japanese positions, dead bodies were everywhere behind the rocks, and some were killed Disemboweled, some were blown into several sections, some were sieved by falling rubble, and some had no external injuries at all, because their internal organs were injured by the shock wave. If their bodies were opened, they could I saw a large number of blood clots inside, which were left by internal bleeding.

In this way, the Guards Division was wiped out by the artillery and aerial bombs of Lin Yuan's troops. When commenting on this battle, the posterity all thought: This is the victory of the artillery!

Xiao Yingwu then reported the news of the annihilation of the Guards Division to Lin Yuan, and Lin Yuan immediately ordered the news agency to release the news, and said to other Japanese troops: "The Guards Division has been wiped out, do you still want to resist?" ?”
