Chapter 1394 Sudden Arrival
The Japanese army was really frightened by the heavy artillery of the Eighth Xuebing Division—the reason why Okamura asked two regiments of mountain artillery and one regiment of heavy artillery to move to the Meiling Mountains, so as not to give the Xuebing Army a chance .Meiling is located between two hills. Although the two hills are only about 600 meters above sea level, according to Okamura, they are the safest areas in Xinjian County.Of course, Okamura asked Uchiyama Eitaro to lead the artillery to Meiling for another purpose, that is, once the 106th Division completes the siege of Gao'an, Uchiyamabe can go directly from Meiling to Changbu to attack the enemy of Anyi Reinforce Gao An.

The exact time was around [-]:[-] p.m., and the location was Qinglan Village, two kilometers northwest of Jiaoqiao Town.On the road between the villages, Eitaro Uchiyama was urging his men to drag donkeys and horses through the village with artillery. On a high ground at the west end of the village, Gu Gang slowly retracted his body behind a cypress tree that was crushed by heavy snow , Press the send button to report the position of the Japanese artillery to Zhang Tianquan.

After Zhang Tianquan received the report, he immediately asked his subordinates to calculate the distance between his troops and Qinglan Village, and soon, shooting Zhuyuan was calculated.

"Big Gray Rabbit, our department is starting to shoot now, please pay attention to the landing point! Our department is starting to test shooting, please pay attention to the landing point! It's over!"

"The big gray rabbit received it, the big gray rabbit received it, it's over!"

Zhang Tianquan raised the red flag in his hand, suddenly slammed it down, and shouted: "Launch!"

"Boom—" four cannon shots sounded in succession, and the four cannons in the front, back, left, and right directions of the artillery array fired successively, and the four shells flew out whistling with orange-white tail flames.

At this time, Zhang Tianquan's headquarters is about 15 kilometers away from the inner mountain. At this distance, the shells fired by the self-propelled artillery only take about 150 seconds to reach.The range of twelve kilometers is still within the best range for the [-]mm caliber self-propelled artillery of the Xuebing Army.The four shells first passed over the heads of Ouyang Yun and the others with the scream of piercing the air, and then flew to the northwest, passing the heads of Neiji Okamura and Sadaji Yoshimoto in a short time.

At this time, there was no gunfire on the battlefield, so the sound of the four shells piercing through the air was extremely ear-piercing. Okamura and Yoshimoto were startled when they heard the screaming sound, and the two immediately looked at each other. His complexion turned pale at the same time.Gibbon said: "The artillery of the Chinese people!" Okamura said with a look of pain, "They went to Uchiyama!"

Gibbon looked up to the northeast, where several black shadows were sinking into the sky.These are the last few Type 99C fighters to leave.

The four shells were aimed at Qinglan Village, which was also visited by Japanese planes in the earlier air raids, but because the residents of the village were persuaded to leave by the soldiers as early as this morning, the bombardment by the Japanese planes did not No "results" were achieved.

15 seconds, just flicking a few fingers.Just after Okamura and Yoshimoto finished expressing their emotions, at the east end of Qinglan Village, Uchiyama and several devil officers around him reined in their mounts and all pricked up their ears.The next moment, as a devil cried out: "Enemy attack! Shelling!" Uchiyama raised his head and closed his eyes in pain, screaming: "Lie down!"

Of the four shells, two of them achieved results. One of them hit a 150mm heavy gun at the west end of the village directly. Two devils were dismembered at the same time, two wheels were blown away by the blast, and one of them hit the head of a donkey 30 meters away, knocking the donkey to the ground immediately.

The cannon was towed by a military truck, and it was very difficult for this military truck with a load of [-] tons to tow the heavy cannon, so the driver had to press the accelerator all the time.After the cannon was dismembered, the military truck's load lightened, and the driver was frightened by the explosion, so he stepped on the accelerator all of a sudden, and the military truck jumped out immediately, protecting the heavy artillery in front of him. A ghost crashed and flew out...

The explosion sounded, and the donkeys and horses dragging those mountain cannons and field cannons were frightened and immediately hissed.The artillery attack was so sudden that the Devil artillery was unprepared. Even though a commander called out to lie down in time, many people still didn't know where they were and were already frightened.

The test shot achieved good results, which made Gu Gang very excited. He immediately reported to Zhang Tianquan: "The big gray rabbit reported that the left one missed by about 30 meters, and the right one missed by about 50 meters! It's over!"

After Zhang Tianquan received the report, he immediately asked his men to adjust and shoot at Zhu Yuan, and then waved the red flag. Five minutes later, the rumbling sound of cannons sounded, and the intensive shelling began.

Because Gu Gang reported the effects of the shelling at any time, this round of shelling lasted for about 10 minutes before stopping.Twenty minutes later, Qinglan Village was completely razed to the ground, and all the cannons of the West Route Army of the 10th Army were almost destroyed. three thousand.

"Your Excellency, there must be someone in the Xuebing Army who provided shooting elements at close range, otherwise it would be impossible to be so accurate!" After 10 minutes of shelling, Yoshimoto Sadaji made an afterthought inference.

Okamura and Yoshimoto have been pulled behind a ruin by the guards at this time - since the artillery of the Xuebing Army can hit Qinglan Village five kilometers away, of course they can also hit the Xinjian City, and if Okamura is directly attacked by the enemy If the army cannons are bombarded to death, then this battle will be impossible to fight.

Okamura sat cross-legged on the ground——as a lieutenant general of the imperial army, he obviously disdained lying on the ground like ordinary officers and soldiers. Mouth shut.

"Did the intensive reconnaissance of the First Air Corps fail to find the artillery of the cadet army? Could it be that they hid the artillery underground?" Gibbon said again.Reminded by the crystal trenches, he guessed so as a matter of course.

Dense artillery shells passed through the sky about two or three kilometers away from him. The devils of the 11th Army West Route Army who stayed in the Xinjian area only felt their scalps go numb. Hearing the rumbling explosions from the northwest, Yokoyama's expression was calm. Okamura was just as pale.

This round of shelling came too suddenly. Before that, all the devils did not expect that they were already within the range of enemy artillery fire—so, although the target of this round of shelling was the artillery in the rear, they were on the front line. It is more difficult for them to accept than being shelled by themselves.

At the beginning of the Battle of Changsha, most of the devils from the 17th Division who were converted from reserve officers and soldiers thought they were invincible, but now they are really afraid.

On the east bank, Connor stood beside Ouyang Yun, first staring at the smoke rising in the distance, then turned his head to look at Ouyang Yun. For the first time, he came up with this thought: I hope the Third Reich will conquer the world in the future Don’t encounter this Chinese person around you in the process, otherwise——

Like Okamura and the others, Connor couldn't figure out where Ouyang Yun hid the Eighth Master Xue. It was because he couldn't figure it out at all that he was genuinely shocked and subconsciously feared him. .
