I am an artillery soldier

Chapter 218
"boom"

The shells fell around the devil's grenadier, knocking out a few of the devil's grenade, and the artillery company fired again, which also let the devil know the location of the artillery company.Following the order of the devil captain, a squadron of devils attacked in the direction of the artillery company.

The devil's artillery was destroyed by the artillery company in advance, so that the devil wanted to deal with the artillery company, so he could only send infantry.As for the devil's grenadier, it was unable to hit the position of the artillery company due to insufficient range.

When looking for the artillery company position, Liu Gen had made sufficient preparations. He had already considered the range of the Devil's grenade launcher, and naturally he would not be so stupid as to set the artillery company's position within the range of the Devil's grenade launcher. Inside.Seeing a squadron of devils attacking, Liu Gen didn't care. There were soldiers from the third battalion in front of the artillery company, not to mention that Li Yunlong was still in charge of the third battalion.

"Look for the targets, find the devil's heavy machine gun, light machine gun and grenades, and kill their firepower." Liu Gen ordered the soldiers of the artillery company.

Liu Gen personally controlled a mortar. After the soldiers behind him handed over the shells, Liu Gen destroyed the grenadiers of the two devils again.As the soldiers of the artillery company began to shell the devil's heavy machine guns, light machine guns and other firepower points, the devil's firepower point suffered, and a shell would fall from time to time, and the devil had no choice but to escape.

The 60mm mortars that Liu Gen distributed to each battalion before also played a role. Each battalion had an extra mortar. Even if the performance was a bit problematic, it made the soldiers a lot easier when attacking.Unlike the devils who don't care about shells, the soldiers pay more attention to the firepower of the devils when shelling, and strive to achieve the corresponding effect with every shot.

Under such an attack, the casualties of the devil's infantry brigade continued to increase. Even if the devil's brigade leader sent a request for help, he knew that the reinforcements did not arrive in a short time.And the powerful firepower of the Independence Regiment also made Captain Guizi realize that the Independence Regiment must be the main force of the Eighth Route Army, otherwise how could it have such strong firepower?

Watching the artillery shells falling from the sky, destroying heavy machine guns, light machine guns and other firepower points with great precision, Captain Devil's heart sank even more. How long can he hold on like this?
Captain Guizi looked at the infantry squadron he had hoped for. He wanted to rely on this infantry squadron to destroy the artillery of the Eighth Route Army and relieve the pressure brought by the Eighth Route Army.But when the captain of the devils looked at the infantry squadron he sent, he could only see that every step forward of the infantry squadron had to pay a lot of devils' lives, and the firepower of the third battalion was too strong.

"Order the Xiaoyuan Squadron to withdraw!" Seeing the casualties of the Infantry Squadron, the Devil Captain could only order so.

Captain Guizi could tell that if Xiaoyuan Squadron continued to attack, even if they could reach the positions of those Tuba Routes, there would not be too many troops left to pose a threat to these Tuba Routes.There is an infantry squadron defending in the other two directions, and the defense is under great pressure. Hearing the wailing sounds from the camp, the captain of the Devils knows that if his brigade persists, it may really be left here.

But before he got the order to retreat from the headquarters, the captain of the Devils didn't dare to retreat. He didn't want to be regarded as a deserter.

"Hold on! Hold on! Our reinforcements will be here soon!" shouted the captain of the Devils.At the same time, the devils who reacted also piled up some dead devil corpses to form a simple defensive position.If it wasn't for the fact that the devils couldn't draw out too many troops, then maybe they would dig out trenches directly to defend.

The devil infantry brigade is only temporarily stationed here, who would have thought that Tubalu would dare to directly attack the infantry brigade?On weekdays, when the devil infantry brigade is mobilized, they will try their best to rest in the devil's stronghold at night. This time, the commander of the devil's North China Front Army, Jun Tada, is urging too hard. In order to reinforce the battle on Zhengtai Road, these devils can only use the fastest Started at a high speed, and finally failed to rest in the devil's stronghold.

Looking at the simple defensive position constructed, Captain Guizi breathed a sigh of relief. This time, Tuba Road can't easily attack, right?Soon, the captain of the devils gave another order, and the devils on the third line of defense were fully shrunk. He found that only by gathering all the troops could he better resist the offensive of these dirt roads.

When the three infantry squadrons withdrew from the front line, the captain of the Devils took a breath. Before the battle started for half an hour, they suffered a large number of casualties.The devil infantry squadron defending Zhang Dabiao and Shen Quan's two battalions in the other two directions was not bad, and the combined losses were less than one squadron.However, the Xiaoyuan Squadron, which was sent by the Devil Captain to attack the direction of the artillery company, suffered heavy losses. One infantry squadron went out, and only one infantry squadron came back.

Moreover, the squadron leader of the Ohara Squadron, Ohara Ichiro also died in the battle.

"Baga! Baga! It's my fault. Ohara-kun shouldn't have died here. He still wants to enjoy the cherry blossoms with me when he returns home!" The captain of the ghost team looked in the direction of the independent group with a grim look in his eyes. hate.

The infantry squadron leaders of the two devils also looked sad. They could think that if squadron leaders like Ichiro Ohara died here, they would probably die too.

"Today, our Matsui Brigade will not retreat! We are all warriors of the Empire of Japan. If the headquarters has not issued an order to retreat, then we must stick to this place! When the sun rises, the aviation troops of the Empire of Japan will come to support! His Majesty the Emperor! For the Great Japanese Empire!" The devil captain shouted loudly.

The captain of the infantry squadron of the two devils hurriedly shouted: "Hey! Fight to the death and never retreat!"

The captain of the Devil's Battalion waved his hand to signal the two squadron leaders to command the defense. He looked at the approaching Eighth Route Army fighting with an ugly expression on his face. With these offensives from the Eighth Route Army, can their brigade really last until dawn?
When the leader of the devil group was silent, there were shells falling again, some shells fell into the air, and some shells fell beside the little devil. The devils who were closer were killed directly, and the devils who were further away were better off hiding behind the bunker. To avoid being injured by shell shrapnel.A shell landed not far from the devil's captain, and a piece of shrapnel flew in, leaving an obvious bloodstain on his face.

"idiot!"

The devil's medical soldiers came and wanted to treat the wound of the devil's captain, but he refused.Looking at the falling shells and noticing the fearful expressions on the faces of many devils, the captain of the devils had a bad feeling. Could it be that the Matsui brigade really wanted to smash all the jade here to repay His Majesty the Emperor?
