I am an artillery soldier

Chapter 144 Cavalry Company Commander Sun Desheng
On June [-]th, Zhang Dabiao returned to the regiment headquarters with the first battalion for supplies. Liu Gen saw Zhang Dabiao, and after a few words in a hurry, Zhang Dabiao left again.

On Zhang Dabiao's face, Liu Gen could see obvious fatigue, obviously the battle on the front line was not easy.Even Zhang Dabiao, a strong general, is under a lot of pressure. Li Yunlong wants to go to the front line to lead the soldiers to fight, but now that he is fighting guerrilla warfare, Li Yunlong has no good way to go to the front line.

However, the information learned from the brigade commander also let Li Yunlong know that a large-scale battle with the devils will not be too far away, and the brigade commander is also ready to deal with the devils!The devils have a big appetite, and troops mobilized by the devils were found in the east, south, and north of the base area.

The development of the base areas of the Eighth Route Army made the devils feel a great threat. At the same time, the Eighth Route Army continued to launch raids on railways everywhere, making it impossible for the devils to guard against!Even though the devils are constantly strengthening the implementation of cage tactics, the actions of the various troops of the Eighth Route Army prevent the devil's cage tactics from achieving the desired effect.Especially the newly built Nanguan Railway Station was destroyed, which made the devils even more angry.

Under the organization of Shinozuka Yoshio, commander of the First Army of the Devils Stationed in North China, this encirclement and suppression of the Eighth Route Army base area was launched.Shinozuka Yoshio made sufficient preparations for this encirclement and suppression of the Eighth Route Army's base area, and mobilized the main force of the 3rd, 9th, and 16th brigades, a part of the 26th, and 41st divisions, together with the puppet army, a total of about 2.5 people !

When Li Yunlong heard such news from the brigade commander, he also understood that the devil's action this time was not small. After the devil's army lieutenant general Shinozuka Yoshio took office as the commander of the 1st Army, he organized many times to attack the base areas of the Eighth Route Army. Siege.

Although Shinozuka Yoshio organized several times to encircle and suppress, he still failed to win the encirclement and suppression. Instead, every encirclement and suppression caused heavy casualties to the devils!This time, Shinozuka Yoshio once again organized the encirclement and suppression of the Eighth Route Army's base area, making all the Eighth Route Army units stand ready.

The devil's independent mixed brigade is the local garrison of the Japanese army, and it cannot compare with the devil's standing division in terms of firepower and maneuverability.Generally speaking, the devil's independent mixed brigade has jurisdiction over 5 independent infantry brigades, and some have jurisdiction over 4 or 6 independent infantry brigades. The brigade is a special force including artillery, cavalry, engineers, and heavy soldiers, with a strength of about 5000 people!Compared with the standing division, the infantry brigade under the independent mixed brigade has only three infantry squadrons, which is one less squadron than the brigade under the standing division, and the infantry artillery squadron has been cancelled.

At the same time, the independent mixed brigade has a cavalry brigade and an artillery brigade. Compared with the Eighth Route Army, its combat effectiveness is not weak.In the artillery brigade, there are four 41-type 75mm mountain cannons and eight 38-type 75mm field cannons, which can provide a firepower strike depth of more than 5 kilometers!
In the situation of the artillery company, the mountain artillery and field artillery of the devil will not have the slightest resistance. As long as the artillery company dares to reveal its position, it will usher in the artillery cover of the devil.

After learning the relevant information from Li Yunlong, Liu Gen's heart was extremely heavy, mother, how should I fight this?Unless you touch the position less than 2000 meters away from the devil's artillery position, the mortars and infantry guns in the artillery company's hands can pose a threat to the devil's artillery position!And does the artillery company have such a chance?Liu Gen felt a little overwhelmed.

Leaving the regiment headquarters and returning to the artillery company, Liu Gen's expression was serious. He also knew that it would not be the brigade of devils who fought against the independent regiment, at most it would be a brigade of devils, but Liu Gen still felt deeply powerless.With the situation of the artillery company, facing the devil's artillery, it is impossible to pose a threat to it easily.

Looking at the soldiers in the artillery company who were training, Liu Gen smiled wryly. He was not going to tell the soldiers such information, which really made people feel a little desperate.Even though Liu Gen had enough confidence in himself that his artillery skills were not weaker than that of the little devil's elite artillery, he was not sure that he would lead the artillery company to defeat the devil's artillery.

After training with the soldiers of the artillery company, Liu Gen calmed down after a while, and he realized that he was thinking too much.The battle between the independent regiment and the devils will only be based on guerrilla warfare, and will not choose to fight the devils head-on.

The devils dispatched so many troops to fight the devils head-on, and with Li Yunlong around, the independent regiment couldn't survive.

Knowing that there would be no head-on collision with the devil's artillery, Liu Gen heaved a sigh of relief. It was not because he had the ambition of the devil, nor was he afraid of the devil, but because the mortar and the devil's mountain artillery were engaged in an artillery battle. The chance of victory was too small. Some!Maybe the devils found the artillery company before they could reach the range of the mortar, and fired directly from a long distance, the artillery company couldn't resist it at all.

If Liu Gen also had mountain cannons in his hands, then he would not have much fear in the face of the devil's artillery.But helplessly, Liu Gen did not have mountain artillery or field artillery in his hands. In the 386 brigade, there were not many mountain artillery and field artillery, let alone in the independent regiment.

Telling the first squad leader to lead the soldiers to continue training, Liu Gen was wandering around. He needed to seriously think about what the artillery company should do in the next battle.There are quite a few mortars in the artillery company. Originally there were three mortars, and with the addition of five mortars transferred by Li Yunlong, there were as many as eight mortars.

The number of mortars is enough, but the number of shells is not enough. If you really fire with all your strength, the shells will be used up in a few rounds!On the front line, Zhang Dabiao and others fought continuously with the devils, and not many were seized, and as for the shells, there were no shells at all.

In other words, the mortar shells could not be replenished in a short period of time, and Liu Gen was troubled by this problem.

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

There were shouts of killing and the sound of horseshoes not far away. Liu Gen looked forward and could see the soldiers of the cavalry company training hard in the open space not far away.Among them, a bearded, 40-year-old man with short hair attracted Liu Gen's attention.

Among the group of young fighters, this man seemed a bit conspicuous. Liu Gen's eyes lit up. Is this the Sun Desheng whom Li Yunlong exchanged for five machine guns from the New Regiment?

Looking at the cavalry company in training, Liu Gen found that the soldiers of the cavalry company were well trained and could clearly feel their edge.The combat skills of the soldiers were trained very skillfully, and they should not be far away from being able to go into battle to kill the enemy, and there should be a lot of credit for Sun Desheng.

"Lieutenant Commander Liu?" When Liu Gen was observing the cavalry company, Sun Desheng, who was leading the soldiers in training, saw Liu Gen. He knew Liu Gen, but he hadn't had much contact with Liu Gen.

Unlike Liu Gen, Sun Desheng's cavalry company has not yet been trained, and Li Yunlong will naturally not let him participate in any combat missions, which makes Sun Desheng not appear in the regiment headquarters many times.But even so, Sun Desheng knew about Liu Gen, and Liu Gen's record with the artillery company was too dazzling.

In the Independent Regiment, almost no fighters did not know that Liu Gen, the company commander of the artillery company, destroyed the Bantian regiment headquarters with one shot, blew up the Devils artillery position in the Battle of Gedong Mountain, raided Wanjia Town, and destroyed the Devils stronghold with infantry artillery. Liu Gen, the commander of the artillery company, was present in these battles. How could this make the soldiers not notice Liu Gen?
