At the artillery position in the depression.
The Independent Heavy Artillery Brigade had 12 Taisho Type IV 150mm field howitzers ready to fire.
As the depression was not very big, the 12 heavy cannons were not built strictly according to the specifications of the heavy artillery position.
The distance between each cannon was less than 50 meters, and the cannonballs and cannons were not separated.
This was because it was more convenient and convenient to shoot. It was still very tiring to carry dozens of kilograms of shells.
The reason why the Japanese independent heavy artillery brigade was so rampant.
It was because they were facing the Eighth Route Army.
The 8th Route Army was famous for being poor. They even had to save on their mortars.
How could they possibly have the ability to threaten the heavy artillery unit?
Even though the independent regiment opposite them was well-equipped.
But so far, they had not been equipped with artillery, not even mortars.
It was also because of this that the Japanese artillery was so unscrupulous.
Fujita Kuichi, the captain of the Independent Heavy Artillery Battalion, stood in the artillery position with his sword.
A signalman trotted over with a telegram.
"Captain, Major General Hiraku Yukio called and asked us to fire at the target.”
"Yuxi, order the cannons to fire. The time limit is half an hour.”
"I have to smash it on the heads of these Chinese pigs as quickly as possible.”
The signalman nodded respectfully.”
Fujita nodded in satisfaction and returned to the command center.
He even moved a rattan chair out of the door and watched Tu Ba Dao get blown up while basking in the sun.
This was a rather pleasant thing for him.
"Boom!"
An artillery shell flew out of a 150mm heavy cannon.
The sound of the cannon was like a clap of thunder that resounded around the area. However, to the ears of the artillery, it was a beautiful sound.
The 150mm grenade whizzed through the sky, drawing an arc in the air, and smashed into the Wild Wolf Valley six kilometers away.
Li Yunlong had been lying on the ground and watching the Japanese's movements with his binoculars.
When they saw their orderly formation, they knew that the battle was about to begin.
As expected, a dull whistling sound came from above.
"Artillery! All soldiers, hide in the cannon holes.”
There was a cat ear hole in every small section of the circular formation.
It was Li Xiangrong who told them how to dig this cat ear hole.
This kind of cat ear hole was the experience of countless ancestors in the future who summed it up with blood.
The cost was very low and did not require any materials at all.
He only needed to dig a hole in the side of the trench and fix it with a few pieces of wood.
It became an excellent defensive cannon hole.
Not only could it be used to defend against artillery, but it was also very effective against attacks from tanks and aircraft.
This was the first time the Independent Regiment had used this new type of anti-cannon hole in battle.
However, since Li Xiangrong had promised them, they should still be able to trust him.
After Li Yun Long finished speaking, he immediately went into the nearest cat ear hole.
"Boom!"
A cannonball landed on a slope more than 200 meters in front of the camp.
The explosion set off a huge wave of air. Countless dust and gravel soared into the sky, and the ground shook from the explosion.
Even from more than 200 meters away, they could clearly feel the deterrence of the heavy artillery.
"Heavy artillery is still more powerful, damn it.”
Li Yunlong, who was curled up in the cat ear hole, couldn't help but curse as he patted the dust off his hat.
"Our mission this time is to get bombed. Is this considered completing the mission?" Zhao Gang smiled lightly.”
"Of course not. It's up to Brother Li now.”
After three rounds, the Japanese artillery position completed the shooting.
Following that, artillery shells began to bombard the Independent Regiment's positions.
At the same time, the 20-odd mountain cannons and Type 92 infantry cannons of the 4th Brigade also joined in the bombardment.
The sound of the artillery shell exploding was like a huge drum, causing many recruits to be terrified.
The recruits were afraid of cannons, and the veterans were afraid of machine guns.
Massive explosions rang out one after another, filling the hearts of the soldiers with the fear of death.
The entire Wild Wolf Valley shook from the explosion.
Hiraku Isamu was very satisfied. He could not help but smile as he looked at the sea of flames that surrounded the Independent Regiment.
On the high ground, Li Xiangrong used the high-powered military binoculars to lock onto the depression in the distance.
"The Japanese's artillery position is indeed there.”
Fang Tianrui also put down his binoculars and looked at the strange weapons behind him. He asked,""Advisor Li, is this really a cannon? This place was more than 6 kilometers away from the Japanese artillery position. With such a short barrel and a smooth bore, could it shoot so far?”
Li Xiangrong revealed a mysterious smile and said,"Don't worry, Commander Fang. This is not a traditional cannon. We'll see how powerful it is later.”
"It's not inferior to the Japanese's 150 heavy artillery.”
After hearing Li Xiangrong's words, Fang Tianrui did not believe it at all.
How could this thing be compared to the mighty 150 heavy artillery? Now, he was very suspicious of Li Xiangrong's plan.
At the same time, they were worried about the independent regiment in the distance.
Why did Advisor Li look so unreliable now?
"Report, all the cannons have been loaded with rockets and can be fired at any time.”
Li Xiangrong was shocked." Then let the Japanese have a taste of our 107 fire. Fire at them!" he said.”
He was asking for a wave of fresh flowers and evaluation votes to make 107 even more popular.
