I am an artillery soldier

Chapter 60 Artillery Coverage
In the gully closest to the top of the mountain, Zhang Dabiao took a telescope and looked at the cabinet where the minesweeping took place again, with a smile on his face.

"Let the brothers continue to work." Zhang Dabiao said with a smile.

"Bang" "Bang" "Bang"

Before the devil's engineers had walked ten meters, the sharpshooters from the first battalion fired again, knocking down two engineers.But as soon as the soldiers fired, the prepared devils shot directly at where the soldiers were.The devils of the three teams fired at the same time, forming a cross-firing firepower net. One soldier failed to hide in time and was shot in the arm by the devil, and the rifle fell from his hand.

The other soldiers were also powerless to fight back against the devil's shooting. The shooting devil didn't seem to care about the consumption of ammunition at all, and the soldiers were so overwhelmed that they couldn't hold their heads up.

"Damn it! Where's our mortar? Take it out and hit the place where the devils gather!" Zhang Dabiao hurriedly said when he saw the soldiers being suppressed.

The first battalion was condescending and could see every move of the devil clearly. Through the telescope in his hand, Zhang Dabiao could see that the devil was constantly advancing while suppressing firepower.If it continues like this, without fire support, the sharpshooters of the first battalion will be suppressed, and it will be easy for the devils to rush up.Even if the first battalion set up a lot of traps and mines, they couldn't provide much help to the soldiers.

Zhang Dabiao didn't want these sharpshooters to have problems. These were the treasures of the first battalion and the new regiment, so they couldn't be folded here.

Some soldiers brought in mortars, and after simply aiming, the shells flew towards the devils.

"boom"

The shell fell beside the devils, and the flying shrapnel knocked several devils to the ground, and they could only groan in pain.It's just that this artillery shell didn't do much damage to the devil. There's no way. Not every artilleryman can be as accurate as Liu Gen. Besides, the devil is also very smart, and his positions are very scattered.Cannonballs flew out one after another, and the shelling stopped after five shells were fired.

The devil left behind a dozen corpses and withdrew, knowing that the Eighth Route Army on the mountain had mortars, no matter how unwilling Kudo Shimono was, he could only retreat with his devil soldiers. Artillery support.The mountain had already become the home ground of the Eighth Route Army, and Kudo Shimono also realized that it was impossible to rush up with his own squadron.

Up to now, the large troops of the Eighth Route Army have not fired. Kudo Shimono is sure that there are many Tuba Road hidden on this mountain, and he does not want his soldiers to die here in vain.

"Battalion Commander, the devils were repulsed by us! I don't think the devils are so powerful!" Looking at Zhang Dabiao, a recruit said with a smile.

Zhang Dabiao slapped the recruit on the head, "Hurry up and hide, the devil's bombardment is coming!"

The recruit was taken aback for a moment, unable to react. When he looked at the veterans in the first battalion, he found that these veterans had hidden in the small hole dug at some time, curled up their bodies, and put the simple The wooden plank is blocking himself.Noticing this, the recruit reacted, quickly found the small hole he had dug, and got in.

Two minutes later, the Devil's 2-type infantry artillery roared, and the shells seemed to cover Gedonggou Mountain for no money.After some carpet bombing, the devils rushed towards Gedonggou Mountain again.This time, the devils directly mobilized the strength of two squadrons. Nearly [-] devils were divided into two directions and rushed up from the foot of Gedonggou mountain.

After a round of carpet bombing, most of the landmines deployed by the First Battalion on Gedonggou Mountain were destroyed, and there were not many left.

"Bah, the little devil really spent his money, damn it, our first battalion set up so many traps for nothing!" Zhang Dabiao spat out the dirt in his mouth, and couldn't help cursing.

Zhang Dabiao also knew the devil's fighting style, and knew that before launching a charge, the devil would cover a large amount of artillery fire, but even knowing this, Zhang Dabiao still led the soldiers of the first battalion to set up many traps.Perhaps these are covered by the devil's artillery fire, and there will not be too many left, but it can play a little role.

"Let the brothers get ready to fight, damn it!" Zhang Dabiao looked around, and could see soldiers from the first battalion constantly coming out of the small holes he dug.But there are also soldiers who can't get out of it. The devil's shells fall on the hiding holes made by the soldiers, and they can still be killed.

When a round of devil's artillery fire covered it, the first battalion had dozens of casualties, so Zhang Dabiao, the first battalion commander, was very distressed.

The soldiers were covered with mud, and they were in a state of embarrassment. Before they had time to pat off the mud, the soldiers lay down on the ravine.Seeing the fast advance of the devils, some devils stepped on the traps made by the soldiers and were pierced through the soles of their feet. They could only hold their feet and howl in pain.The surrounding devils ignored the wailing comrades with blank faces. They had only one goal, and that was to rush to the top of the mountain, to the position built by the first battalion!

"boom"

Some devils stepped on landmines that were not bombed by the artillery fire, and were directly blown away, blood splattered everywhere.Some ghost soldiers subconsciously slowed down their speed. They didn't want to step on a landmine. If they stepped on a landmine, they might not even have their heads left.

"Rush! Rush up!" Behind, a squadron leader of the devil yelled loudly.

The devil soldier picked up his speed again and rushed towards the top of the mountain, but the remaining mines still had a lot of impact on the devil.The sound of explosions from time to time made these devils tremble subconsciously, and their speed would also slow down a lot.

However, with the scolding of the officers behind them, the devils still rushed to a position less than 300 meters away from the first battalion. During this period, more than a dozen devils died directly from stepping on landmines, and even more were injured.The traps set up by a battalion of soldiers on the mountain have caused these devils a lot of trouble, and they need to be extra careful every step they take.

"Fight!" Zhang Dabiao shouted when he saw the devil rushing to the range of 300 meters.

As he said that, Zhang Dabiao pulled the trigger of his rifle and killed a devil who was charging forward.Using the shooting skills practiced by the devils by feeding bullets, bring the devils closer, and they can cause more casualties to the first battalion.Besides, the new group now has enough ammunition, and it can also give the soldiers a luxury.

Some troops put the devils tens of meters away from their positions before firing. This was to save ammunition as much as possible. They didn't have the wealth and power of Xinyituan.

The soldiers who had been prepared for a long time fired, but the light machine gun did not fire for the time being. This was Zhang Dabiao's arrangement, and he would surprise the devil when he rushed forward.From time to time, the devil's mortar shells would fall on the position of the first battalion, causing a lot of casualties, but the first battalion had a large number of veterans, and they would not be afraid of this.

Under the leadership of the veterans, some recruits who had just joined the First Battalion soon became familiar with the battlefield environment and continued to shoot, delaying the progress of the devils.
