The island soldiers in the camp widened their eyes as they watched the grenades and mortar shells fly out of the tunnel, as if they were scared silly.
At such a close distance, there was no time to react. He could not even lie down.
The first wave of grenades landed on the island army's position, followed by the mortar shells that launched fire suppression at the same time. The island army in the position could only hold their heads and hide in place, praying that they would not be hit by the grenades and mortar shells.
Although the field of vision was limited due to the tunnel, and the angle could only be adjusted according to the estimated distance, it was completely unnecessary to pursue the accuracy of the landing point of the cannonball at such a close distance.
Using an entire battalion of grenade launchers to fight against a brigade of the island army, the goal was not to suppress, but to annihilate!
The soldiers of the New Second Regiment picked up grenades from the baskets they carried, pulled the fuse, and threw them at the island army's position.
The mortars of the 1st Battalion of the 369th Regiment stopped firing after a round of artillery bombardment, leaving the battlefield to the New 2nd Regiment.
The tunnel could only accommodate a limited number of people, and each grenade launcher could only carry twenty shells.
The task of destroying and suppressing the island army's position could be temporarily handed over to the grenades of the New 2nd Regiment. The more threatening firepower of the grenade launcher could be saved for the New 2nd Regiment to continue bombarding the island army when they charged.
Each soldier of the New Second Regiment brought 30 grenades in a basket and threw all the grenades into the island army's position within three minutes.
Li Jinshan, who was observing from the rear, saw that there were no more grenades thrown in the tunnel, so he immediately gave the order for the entire regiment to launch a general attack.
Relying on the 38th Cover that was exchanged from the 369th Regiment, the equipment of the entire New 2nd Regiment was brand new. Even the soldiers who charged with the team did not use kitchen knives to charge. Instead, they replaced it with the 38th Cover that was still in the hands of the Japanese a few days ago.
The island army's position seemed to have been completely destroyed. The 3,000 grenades of the New Second Regiment had a devastating effect. Many machine guns, grenade launchers, and other technical equipment had been destroyed. Every few meters in the position, there was a dead body of the island army. Scattered flames danced in the position.
"Bastards, these cowards!"
One of Captain Yamazaki's arms had been blown off by the concentrated grenade bombardment just now. At this moment, he had a ferocious expression on his face as he shouted at the top of his lungs,
"Kill them!"
He used his remaining arm to wave the commanding knife, and his hoarse voice was like a demon.
There were still a few intact machine guns on the island army's position. The surviving island army moved the damaged machine guns down, skillfully disassembled them, and reassembled the parts that could still be used. Within a few minutes, they had reassembled several machine guns that could still be used.
The machine guns in the direction of the island army's position rang out again. The grenade launchers of the 369th regiment's first battalion hiding in the tunnel knew that it was time for them to play again.
The soldiers of the New Second Regiment were still charging at the island army from the rear. There was no risk of accidental explosions in front.
The grenade launchers fully abided by the code of conduct set by the regimental headquarters, firing as many shells as possible at the fastest speed before the two armies were about to engage in close combat and before the troops behind them were about to rush up.
Without considering any issues of error or accuracy, the grenade launchers of the 369th regiment each fired the remaining 19 shells at the island army's position at a speed of three seconds, completely destroying the island army's remaining equipment.
Gu Xun, who was drinking water and looking at the map in the headquarters of Regiment 369, took the opportunity to close his eyes and meditate. His thoughts sank into the system interface in his mind.
Looking at the constantly jumping notifications and the soaring points, Gu Xun couldn't help but feel lucky that other than signing in, there was also the setting of killing enemies to exchange for points.
Otherwise, based on the rate at which a battalion of the 369th Regiment could easily fire thousands of shells in a battle, it would probably take a month to make up for the ammunition consumed.
In previous battles, it was hard to say if a division of the weaker Chinese army could fire 1,000 shells in one battle, let alone the 369th Regiment, which could fire more shells than the enemy.
If he could solve the problem with artillery shells, he would not use human lives. If he could avoid charging with machine guns, he would not do it. Gu Xun had always adhered to the principle of reducing casualties as much as possible.
"Next, we have to consider the possibility of a tough battle with the island army.”
Considering the current situation, Gu Xun had to admit that mobile warfare was no longer something he could fight whenever he wanted. It was inevitable that the island army would send more troops, and there would not be so much room for maneuver.
Since that was the case, they had to start preparing the relevant artillery equipment and troop training from now on in order to suppress the island army.
Artillery equipment was very expensive, much more expensive than ordinary infantry equipment, but reality forced Gu Xun to expand the artillery establishment and troops in preparation for the upcoming fierce battle.
" Hmm…Apart from mortars, I need to equip more infantry cannons. Which one should I use?"
As he scrolled through the system interface, Gu Xun's gaze fell on an infantry cannon that shouldn't have appeared in this era.
"I'll pick you. The points I need aren't too ridiculous, so I can equip a battalion right now.”
