Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 1038 The fish finally took the bait (first update!)

As soon as the adjutant rushed into the tent with panic on his face, he ordered: "Mortars, infantry artillery, field artillery, counterattack immediately... The captain of the field artillery brigade unified command of all artillery, kill the Eighth Route Army artillery that sneaked up on us! "

"Also, let the troops temporarily leave the tents and disperse to avoid the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army until the artillery troops destroy them!"

Not long after, the sound of infantry artillery and field artillery came to Colonel Yongsheng's ears, and the adjutant who returned to the captain immediately introduced: "Sir, our artillery has already started to fight back. There are twelve field artillery in total. Four infantry guns and twelve mortars will definitely kill the exposed artillery units of the Eighth Route Army!"

"Boom boom boom..."

After 10 minutes, the sound of explosions that enveloped the ears of Commander Yongsheng didn't seem to stop.

At this time, even a fool would know that the artillery counterattack did not have the expected effect!
"What's going on? What are the artillerymen for? There are twice as many artillery pieces. After such a long time, why haven't the artillerymen of the Eighth Route Army been killed yet!"

"Don't they want to see the troops rest under the artillery fire of the Eighth Route Army all night~"

As soon as the curses came out, an artillery brigade and a lieutenant liaison officer rushed in!
"Sir, the Eighth Route Army is too cunning...they use mortars, and the transfer speed is fast. Each artillery position only fires three rounds of shells before moving. The time is too short, and we have no way to lock them in for a counterattack!"

"Moreover, mortar positions can be used everywhere around, unless someone is watching them in front, notifying their whereabouts to the field artillery brigade, setting up the bombardment units in advance, and firing as soon as they arrive. Otherwise, we can't do anything to them at all!"

Colonel Yongsheng stared at the communications officer and asked back: "Aside from sending troops, is there no other way?"

"If it's daytime, we can ask the aviation unit to confirm their position!" The communications officer answered bravely.

Commander Yongsheng scolded unceremoniously: "Bageyalu, if I can dispatch the air force, what do I need you to do? Just let the air force launch the attack!"

"You are a bunch of stupid pigs. With so many artillery pieces and heavy artillery pieces, you can't even deal with more than a dozen mortars from the Tuba Road. This is a shame to the Imperial Japanese Army...Bageya Road!"

Listening to the constant explosions outside the headquarters, no one knew where the next shell would land, including the wing headquarters where he was.

Therefore, the adjutant reminded anxiously: "Sir... time is running out, and the most urgent thing to delay now is to solve the problem!"

"Although it is dangerous to send troops out at night, as long as we send enough troops, with enough firepower, and bring radios and flare guns, and call for artillery support anytime and anywhere, there shouldn't be too many problems..."

As the captain of the division's mobile linkage, no one has fought more times with the Eighth Route Army than him.

Although the imperial army is well equipped, even the most elite troops in China can easily defeat their opponents, but it is only during the day.At night, many equipment advantages could not be brought into play, and the combat effectiveness of the troops was weakened by at least [-]%.

And the fighting power of the Eighth Route Army was not weakened, but because the darkness provided them with natural barriers and concealment, they could use more tactics and tactics, and their fighting power rose instead of falling!
Therefore, every night battle with the Eighth Route Army, the imperial army almost always ended in failure.

This has already formed a shadow in the mind of General Yongsheng, so when fighting the Eighth Route Army, unless it is absolutely necessary, he will definitely avoid night battles.

After hesitating for a long time, Commander Yongsheng finally made a decision.

"Since only the dispatch of infantry can solve the problem, then dispatch!"

"According to what you said just now, dispatch one reinforced squadron at a time, one battalion of the Imperial Association Army, and equip them with heavy machine guns and mortars. Once ambushed by the Eighth Route Army, stop immediately, counterattack on the spot, and then call for artillery support! "

"Also, all attacking troops can't be more than two kilometers away from the garrison. As long as the two kilometers around the garrison are safe, the mortars equipped by the Eighth Route Army can't do anything to us!"

Li Fuquan, the head of the first regiment, had been guarding outside the Japanese army garrison for almost half an hour, and almost [-] shells had been dropped, but there was still no movement in the Japanese and puppet army garrison.

"Regimental Commander, do you want to order the artillery to stop? If we continue to fight like this, the consumption of shells will be too great!" the political commissar reminded with a heartbroken face.

Li Fuquan had never seen Wang Ping's power with his own eyes, but he listened to every word of yesterday afternoon's class, and he agreed with it very much.

He vetoed it almost without hesitation: "No, the shelling will continue... After 5 minutes, if the devils still haven't moved, go up to another artillery platoon!"

"I can't bear to let the children not be tied to wolves... The devil's garrison is so big, there are more than 4000 Japanese and puppet soldiers living in it, and more than 100 shells are thrown down. A blind cat can kill and injure more than 100 Japanese and puppet soldiers!"

"Also, if they don't attack, they won't be able to rest tonight. They won't be able to hold on tomorrow even if they don't sleep for a night!"

"So, no matter how you analyze it, the devils will attack~"

Not long after, there was movement in front, and a row of guards rushed over excitedly and nervously.

"Regimental Commander, the devils have moved. More than 200 devils and more than 300 puppet troops, with heavy machine guns and mortars, are coming towards us!"

"After taking so long, the fish finally took the bait!" Li Fuquan exclaimed excitedly.

Then I started to give orders with a full face of anticipation!

"Tell the artillery company that the devils are going to kill them, and tell them to transfer immediately so that they don't get caught up by the devils. Also, during the transfer process, the artillery fire on the Japanese and puppet army camps cannot be stopped... Political commissar, take your The guards will go over with their parents and children!"

"I'll go there now!" The political commissar let out a sigh of relief, raised his legs and rushed out.

"Wait a minute!" Just two steps away, the regiment leader Li Fuquan called him over and added.

"There is one more thing to pay attention to~ When transferring, we must constantly change the direction of transfer, so that the devils cannot discover the pattern... This is specially explained by the deputy chief of staff. The devils have a group of artillery. If they discover the pattern, they can be on our way to transfer. Waiting to fire. At that time, a few rounds of artillery fire can kill the mortar company we have finally built!"

The political commissar immediately replied: "I understand... let's go now!"

As soon as the political commissar left, Li Fuquan continued to order: "Chief of Staff, notify each company to prepare for battle according to the original combat plan!"

"My requirements are not high. A company will fight for 2 minutes, and retreat when the time is up. You can't love to fight. However, each company must kill at least ten devils in this 2-minute attack, and the puppet army is not counted!"

The same order was also spoken from the mouths of the other three regiment leaders.

Soon, there were chaotic and intensive gunshots and explosions near the Japanese and puppet military camps.

Commander Yongsheng's expression was very solemn and sullen, and he didn't say a word.

It wasn't until a combat staff officer rushed in that there was a slight fluctuation in his dignified face...

"Sir, the No. [-] Squadron reports that they have successfully destroyed an artillery unit of the Eighth Route Army, seized a mortar, and destroyed a mortar!"

A smile quickly flashed across his face, he stared at the combat staff officer and asked, "How about the casualties of the troops? With so much gunfire, the casualties must be huge!"
