Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 588 Extravagant bombardment (first update!)

"Commander, are you right? I remember that we don't seem to have artillery, only two mortars, and you are the one who takes aim and shoots yourself every time!" Xiong Changhe immediately asked.

"It didn't exist before, but it doesn't mean it doesn't exist now, and it won't exist in the future. I will form the artillery unit now!" Wang Ping replied surprisingly.

"Chen Dong, the only platoon commander in our Xinyi Regiment who has been an artilleryman and knows how to use cannons. From now on, he will be the artillery company commander of our Xinyi Regiment!"

"But we don't have artillery, and we don't have enough artillery to form an artillery company with only two mortars?" Xiong Changhe continued to ask.

"Among the captured puppet troops, there are a few who can fire artillery, and five people from each of the two companies will be drawn to supplement the artillery company as the backbone!" Wang Ping blurted out his thoughts without any concealment.

Then he continued: "As for the cannon, I have already gone to the direct subordinate class to look for it in the ruins ahead, and I should get something soon!"

"The devil brought in six mortars, even if some were blown up, three should be left!"

"Including two of our own, a total of five or six mortars should be able to set up the shelf of the artillery company!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Guangxin from the investigation team rushed over.

"Captain, we're getting rich again!"

"A total of 4 mortars, 2 heavy machine guns, and 5 light machine guns were found... These were all found on the surface of the ruins, and many weapons were buried in the ruins, especially in the gun tower, at least four were buried Heavy machine gun!"

Xiao Yunshan and Xiong Changhe were shocked again. Before they could react, Wang Ping had already replied: "If it is buried, it will be destroyed. Even if it is dug up, it will definitely be smashed, and we don't have the time to dig it!"

"Xiao Yunshan, your second company suffered a lot. When you broke through, you took charge of all the prisoners we just captured, and asked them to carry fifty catties of food or a box of bullets, and retreat with us. If you are not honest, you can Kill chickens and monkeys, kill two captives!"

"Xiong Changhe, after the shelling is over, your company will take the lead. I will provide you with enough artillery cover. When the enemy is stunned, you will rush up immediately, create a breakthrough, and then the covering troops will rush over quickly!"

"All the remaining Japanese troops still have three mortars in their hands. If they want to break through, they must be killed first.

So, before waiting too long, the two mortars equipped by the new regiment fired.

The shells with the screaming sound seemed to have eyes, and they hit the devil's defense line directly, blowing up a machine gun and two devil machine gunners.

Ida Shaozuo was awakened at the first moment, seeing the fireball and black smoke rising from the position, he shouted loudly: "Bageya Road, it is a mortar, Tuba Road is even equipped with a mortar! They are firing now, Definitely want to break through!"

"Don't we still have a mortar squad? Counterattack immediately and kill the new regiment of artillery! There are not many of them, and they must not have many artillery pieces!"

The three mortars equipped by the devil quickly began to counterattack.

It's just that they didn't know that just as they were about to fire, the two guns fired by the Xinyi regiment had moved tens of meters away, forming a mortar formation together with the remaining four mortars. Gunner, make sure to aim at the Japanese artillery position.

After the six mortars were all aimed at the target, the six temporary gunners selected by Wang Ping each held a fuzed shell in their hands and placed it in the muzzle, waiting for the order to fire.

"There is no way to fire five rounds of rapid fire, and use the fastest speed to shoot out the shells!"

The devil's three mortar teams were still firing shells at the position just now.

The six shells that fell from the sky caught the devil by surprise.Half of the gunners were blown over before they had time to react.

The gunner who was still alive immediately fell to the ground, trying to escape.

However, the rate of fire of the mortar was too fast. In less than a minute, a full thirty shells hit them, making them impossible to hide.

"Bageyalu, how is that possible? Doesn't the new regiment only have more than 100 people? Why are they equipped with so many mortars, my artillery!" Ida Shaozuo's face turned pale with a brush, and he cried out in despair.

However, this is just the beginning.

A group of six mortar shells rained down on the blockade line, overturning several Imperial Army and Imperial Association Army, Ida Shao Zuo's already pale face became even paler.

Shimiao Town is surrounded by plains, and there is no danger to defend at all.

The line of defense surrounding the new regiment is a simple line of defense formed around the machine gun bunkers piled up with sandbags.

Such a bunker position can block bullets fired from the front, but cannot block mortar shells falling from the sky.

More importantly, although the power of mortar shells is not great, there is still no problem in destroying machine gun bunkers piled up with sandbags.

In this case, as long as the new regiment has enough shells, just six mortars can blast a gap in the blockade.

"Captain, the enemy's artillery fire is too fierce, we can't stand it at all!" The adjutant next to him also realized the seriousness of the problem, and immediately stared at Shao Zuo Ida and asked.

For the first time on the battlefield, Major Ida felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Shaking his head and looking helpless, he replied: "There is no artillery, and I can't ask for aircraft support. I can't do anything!"

"Reinforce the breakthrough that the new regiment is bombarding, that's no different from dying!"

"It's useless to counterattack. Just now, the two hundred imperial troops and the two companies of the imperial association army rushed in and died. What's more, it is impossible for us to gather so many troops to rush in now."

Soon, the line of defense that concentrated an infantry squad and most of the puppet company received fifty or sixty shells.

In the violent explosion, the entire blockade was directly covered by thick gunpowder smoke.

At this time, dozens of Eighth Route Army suddenly rushed out of the town.Although there were not many people, the seven or eight people who rushed to the front almost all had a light machine gun.Throughout the charge, four light machine guns fired again from beginning to end.

"The Eighth Route Army has begun to break through the siege, immediately draw an infantry squad up to block the gap!" Major Ida immediately seized the opportunity to order.

Dozens of devils quickly assembled, and then rushed towards the gap screaming.

When Major Ida and all the other Japanese and puppet troops were staring at the gap, the last thing they wanted to hear was the scream of shells.

This time only three shells fell, but the aim was very good, and they fell directly in the middle of the reinforcements.

"Boom boom boom!" In the violent explosion, seven or eight devils were instantly blown over.

"Scatter the reinforcements, don't gather them together!" Major Ida hurriedly ordered.

However, no matter how they dispersed, a group of three cannonballs always followed them, especially one of the cannonballs seemed to have eyes and chased them.

When they finally rushed to the gap, the reinforcements of more than 40 people were killed or injured, and there were less than [-] left!
