Li Shi, the commander of the 36th Regiment, hid behind the city wall. He kept shooting through the gaps in the battlements.
However, the firepower of the 74th Brigade was far more terrifying than he had expected.
"Mortar Platoon, don't stop!”
"If you can blast open this city gate, I, Li Yunlong, will give him a great merit!”
The soldiers of the Third Regiment shouted their slogans loudly, but under the lead of Li Yunlong, the old bandit, they only rushed to fifty meters in front of the county town and hid under cover.
Li Yunlong shouted at the mortar platoon behind him as he hid behind a bunker.
Hearing their regiment commander say so, the soldiers who were hesitant to fire sparingly no longer hesitated.
They were like wild cows that had just left their pens. They immediately started to have fun, reloading and firing non-stop.
"Did you hear what the regiment commander said? Correct the direction and range. Don't stop even if the barrel explodes!”
The platoon leader of the mortar platoon, Meng Fei, was a young officer who graduated from the Military Academy. During the previous training in the mountainous area, although their platoon had also released a lot of live ammunition, they were limited by the number of shells. They could not rely on it to fight to their heart's content.
Now that he had this opportunity, he wasn't going to kill the enemy.
At the back, the brigade commander Cai Rui heard Li Yunlong's words and turned to speak to the 1st Regiment Commander Wang Ben and 2nd Regiment Commander Cunqi.
"You guys also move the artillery platoons in your troops up. We have to help Old Li do his job!!!”
"As for the expended cannonballs, I will replenish them after the battle!”
Hearing Cai Rui's orders, Wang Ben and Inch Creature didn't hesitate and called their platoon leaders to help.
"Boom!"
Thirty mortars fired at a county at the same time. The sound of the air being torn apart could be heard continuously. The bombs that fell on the city wall almost made the 36 regiments of soldiers on the city wall unable to raise their heads.
From time to time, bricks and stones would be blown up on the city. It would not be an exaggeration to say that the county city had been attacked.
"Hahaha, Brigadier General, you're really something!”
Li Yunlong, who was hiding behind cover, naturally heard the intense gunfire. He stood up and fired at the top of the city wall with his Thompson submachine gun.
" Dada-"
The firing rate of a submachine gun was much faster than a Mauser rifle, especially when the soldiers of a reinforced company were collectively holding onto the Thompson submachine gun and firing at the same time.
The momentum they created was even greater than the firepower of a regiment of ordinary warlords during the Republic of China.
Together with the infantry regiment under Li Yunlong's command holding rifles and machine guns to suppress the enemy, the commander of the 36th Regiment, Li Shi, who was lying on the city wall, saw that the enemy's firepower below the city was at the level of a reinforced brigade.
No, it was even slightly stronger than the firepower of a brigade.
"Bah! Bah! The 74th regiment had brought such powerful firepower!”
Looking at the soldiers of the 36th Regiment who did not dare to show their heads, Li Anshi did not think that his regiment could last a night under such artillery fire.
" Hold on, hold on for me!!!"
"This is just the enemy's cannon fire feint. It's just a three-pronged attack. As long as the enemy runs out of strength, it's time for us to counterattack!”
Li Shi was indeed a veteran on the battlefield. He was " self-righteous " and thought that the 74th Brigade's offensive would not last long.
However, after an hour of bombardment, Li Shi's face gradually darkened.
"Regiment Commander, why don't we report this to the division commander? Otherwise, if we continue to attack like this without support, we might not be able to see the sun tomorrow!!!”
The battle was too aggrieved. Even the adjutant who followed Li Anshi held back and advised him.
"Captain, ask for help. Our brothers can't hold on much longer!!!”
A battalion commander who had his arm cut by the shrapnel came in front of Li Anshi and said with a sullen and angry face.
"Regiment commander, how is this the 74th regiment that hasn't had any equipment replenished for years? F * ck, if someone were to say that this is the main force of Tang Yao's 1st division, I would believe it!!!”
The words of the adjutant and the battalion commander made Li Shi, who was originally confident and arrogant, hesitate.
"Hold on for another hour. If the enemy's artillery fire still hasn't stopped after an hour, I'll send a message to the commander for help!!!”
