Heroes of the War of Resistance

On the other hand, looking at the mixed brigade, Sakurada Takeshi also said very anxiously when he saw the troops that were not attacking smoothly: "Find out the weak points of the Chinese army's defense, and then concentrate their firepower to tear open a hole. We can't continue this stalemate."

As the commander of the major general brigade of the Japanese army, Takeshi Sakurada's command ability is naturally not bad.The dense fortifications in front of the city gate, plus the artillery units that appeared one after another, made Takeshi Sakurada feel a huge threat, making him afraid to stay outside the city for too long.

Although this idea is good, Hu Biao will not give him too many opportunities.Seeing that the Japanese army lost artillery cover and support, they even desperately attacked.Hu Biao immediately said: "Let the artillery battalion adjust the angle of attack and start shelling the attacking devils!"

"Yes, wolf head!"

"Wait for the artillery battalion to fire again, let the heavy artillery unit join in the bombardment! Before it's dark, try to eliminate more little devils. Otherwise, when the sky is completely dark, we want to wipe out these little devils, I'm afraid it's not too late." Easy!"

"understand!"

Even the officers and soldiers of the First Division have rich actual combat experience and are good at fighting at night.But in Hu Biao's view, now that he has the advantage on the battlefield, he is fully capable of disintegrating the will to resist of the mixed brigades of the Japanese army in a short period of time.

If the night battle lasts too long, the combat troops responsible for the pursuit and encirclement will inevitably have to pay a certain price.Hu Biao thought it was worthwhile to spend some more shells in exchange for the lives of some soldiers.

After receiving Hu Biao's order and the information from the frontier observation post, the artillery unit of the Japanese army has been destroyed.At this moment, the Japanese army's mixed brigades no longer have the ability to counterattack with artillery fire, and the artillery battalion can also throw off their shoulders and do a big job.

After readjusting the shelling angle and parameters, the artillery battalion deliberately set the impact point in an area [-] meters away from the defensive position.This also means that as soon as the artillery battalion fires, the little devil's attacking force will be cut into two parts.

"Battalion Commander, all artillery positions have been adjusted!"

"Okay, ask the teacher for instructions immediately!"

After a phone call, the communication soldier quickly said: "The battalion commander, the division commander ordered that the artillery battalion can fire!"

"Okay! The whole battalion is ready! Five rapid-fire shots, let them go!"

"put!"

There was a roar, accompanied by shells flying out of the barrel, and flew straight towards the position of the Japanese attacking troops.On the ground, the Japanese army, who was fighting fiercely with the defenders, soon saw the falling shells.

Compared with the defenders who have defensive positions as cover, they, as the attacking side, can be said to have no cover.Facing the bombardment falling like a sky and covering the earth, the little devil could only hug his head and scurry: "Bombardment! Concealment! Scatter and concealment! Lie down! Lie down quickly!"

The defenders of the position also saw this scene, and immediately laughed and said: "Brothers, the artillery brothers are starting to support us! Give me a hard hit and kill all the little devils in front of the position! Never allow little devils to step into the Position half a step!"

"Yes, sir!"

With the artillery support from the artillery, the defenders, who had felt under a lot of pressure before, suddenly felt as if they had been beaten to death, and began to focus on targeting the fleeing little devils.The soldiers' gun methods also seemed to be much more accurate than before.

On the other hand, who is in a hurry, how to pòjiě the stalemate in front of Takeshi Sakurada,

Looking at the shells that hit the attacking troops, he instantly said with frustration, "Gah! We're really in trouble now!"

"General, do you order the troops to withdraw?"

"How to withdraw at this time? Damn it! Let the reinforcements withdraw first to avoid the artillery fire of the Chinese army!"

"Hi!"

Just when Takeshi Sakurada was about to give an order and began to shrink the troops.The commander of the heavy artillery unit that had been waiting for a long time also said loudly: "It's our turn to play! In 10 minutes, we must fire more shells and start shelling!"

"Yes, Captain!"

The 10-minute heavy artillery attack is also a rare opportunity for the soldiers of the heavy artillery unit.For Hu Biao at the moment, the heavy artillery can be regarded as one of his killer weapons, but one round of shells is one less round.

In this case, limited artillery strikes are very necessary.As for the heavy artillery purchased from Menia, Hu Biao plans to deploy more in colonial settlements and mines, and build more complete artillery positions.

Hu Biao, who had been to Ruishi in his early years, knew very well that Ruishi built multiple artillery positions in China during World War II.Many artillery pieces were even built directly next to residential houses.Usually the artillery is not used, it will be locked in the hole.

Once these heavy guns need to be used, they will be pushed out using the modified slide rails.Even in the event of an air attack, these heavy artillery can quickly push back to the hole.After the air raid or bombing is over, these heavy artillery can be used again.

Although the permanent artillery positions built in this way have lost their mobility, they can better prevent air strikes.Within the artillery strike range, the shelling effect formed by these artillery will also become a nightmare for attacking infantry.

Compared with mountain artillery, infantry artillery, and mortar, the artillery called heavy artillery has more powerful shells.Once the shell went down, no living things could be seen within a few meters.The power of the God of War is undoubtedly revealed at this moment!

And the mixed brigade at this moment also began to feel the nightmare brought to them by the heavy artillery.The little devils who originally wanted to invade Nong'an City and celebrate wildly, now finally understand that they have fallen into the battle trap carefully arranged by the defenders!

Text Chapter 71 Send a farewell call!

If the initial counterattack of the Artillery Battalion of the First Division only surprised the attacking Japanese infantry.Then the subsequent shelling of the artillery battalion made the Japanese army really feel fear.Who would not be afraid of the shells that may fall to the side at any time?

Takeshi Sakurada, who has been staying in the rear to supervise the battle, saw the artillery battalion adjust the muzzle and hit the artillery shells into the attacking infantry line. He knew that the plan to raid Nong'an City had completely failed.Even, he already felt a huge threat.

Knowing that there should be many attacking troops intercepted in the forward offensive position, but at this moment Takeshi Sakurada has no time to rescue them.Order the troops located outside the shelling range to gather quickly and prepare to find a direction to retreat quickly.

This ability to make decisions on the fly is really good, but Takeshi Sakurada didn't know that when he led the mixed brigade to Nong'an City, everything was already doomed.How could Hu Biao let the mixed brigade that had fallen into the trap run away?

The heavy artillery detachment once again showed its ferocious side. Looking at the heavy artillery shells smashed into the team, Takeshi Sakurada, who was covered by the guards around him, said in horror: "Impossible! Why is the Chinese army equipped with heavy artillery? Or our heavy artillery? "

Looking at the artillery shells that landed on the ground, Takeshi Sakurada quickly recognized that these were 105-caliber heavy artillery equipped only by some main battle divisions and artillery units of the Japanese army.It stands to reason that the Japanese army would not sell this kind of heavy artillery to the anti-Japanese troops at all.

If he was in the southern battlefield at this moment, then Takeshi Sakurada could suspect that these heavy artillery were captured by the anti-Japanese troops.But this is southern Guangxi, how long did they invade, how did the other party capture it?

What puzzled Takeshi Sakurada the most was that to transport such a large-caliber heavy artillery, it had to be transported by car.From transportation to building artillery positions, it is extremely troublesome.How did the defenders of Nong'an City secretly deploy heavy artillery troops?

Countless puzzles and perplexities welled up in my heart, but it was still impossible to restore the rout of the mixed brigade.Seeing the chaos in the rear of the little devil, the defenders lurking in the defensive trenches quickly launched a counterattack.

After eliminating the little devils who had been abandoned in the forward offensive position, the defenders quickly withdrew to the trenches.If it is not strictly ordered by the chief, no one is allowed to pursue without authorization.I'm afraid that many defenders will take advantage of the little devil's unlucky time to chase after him!

Just when Takeshi Sakurada was full of frustration and felt that everything that happened in front of him was far beyond his imagination and expectations.The accompanying officer hurriedly said: "General, please give the order quickly! If we don't break through, we will really be doomed!"

The mixed brigade, which has completely lost its ability to counter artillery fire, has no counter-hand power at all in the face of the joint shelling of the first division and the task force. The sound of gunfire from wài wéi has already proved that there are troops and are encircling the Japanese army.

Hearing the urging of his subordinates, Takeshi Sakurada took a deep breath and said: "I have ordered that all the ministries quickly withdraw from this place along the road when they came. If you encounter obstacles, break out at any cost. Otherwise, we will all be smashed here!"

"Hi!"

Sending the officers around him to gather the troops, Takeshi Sakurada hurriedly said: "Immediately send a report to Your Excellency the Commander, informing that our department was ambushed by the main force of China in Nong'an City. The brigade suffered heavy casualties and is currently trying its best to break through.

In addition, inform your Excellency, Commander, that the Chinese army that ambushed our troops is equipped with [-] caliber heavy artillery and a large number of [-] caliber mountain guns.After dawn, please, Commander, send fighter planes to scout Nong'an City! "

"Hi!"

The transmitter, surrounded by a group of people, hid in a relatively safe place and quickly sent a telegram to the headquarters.After the telegram was sent, Sakurada Takeshi was also protected by a group of subordinates, and began to retreat and break through.

Some people also suggested before that whether it is possible to forcibly attack the defensive positions of the defenders of Nong'an City.As long as they can rush into Nong'an City, maybe they still have a chance.But seeing the defenders still lying motionless in the trenches, no one knew that the chance of success was not high.

If the delay continues, once the troops ambushing them complete the encirclement, even if they want to withdraw at that time, they may not be able to break out of the encirclement.This battle, when the artillery of the mixed brigade was completely destroyed, was basically declared over.

Don't talk about capturing Nong'an City now, whether it can break out safely or not is a matter of course.

an unknown.The mixed brigade, which had already marched in a hurry, was about to forcibly break through and retreat now. The physical and mental strength of many officers and soldiers were about to reach a limit.

Some Japanese troops who had been completely dispersed could only choose their own breakout route in the face of the situation that they could not join the main force.As a result, it was obvious that when they thought they had escaped the range of artillery fire, they soon ushered in the encircling troops who surrounded and suppressed them.

Hearing the sound of guns ringing from all around behind him, Takeshi Sakurada, who had managed to gather nearly a regiment of troops, also said with a face full of rejoicing: "Damn it! The Chinese army really had a premeditated plan. Fortunately, we retreated in advance, otherwise we might be blocked by them in the city." outside!"

"General, although we have gathered nearly one regiment of troops, the warriors don't carry much supplies and weapons. If we break through overnight, I'm afraid the warriors will be physically exhausted. Please show me the general!"
