Fang Ligong did not dare to face the Sakata United Team head-on.
However, now that the enemy was in chaos, it was not impossible to take the opportunity to bully them.
If he didn't take revenge now, when would he take revenge?
"Yes!" Fang Ligong shouted.
Seeing that the chief of staff was about to leave, Chu Yunfei suddenly remembered something and said,""Order the Artillery Battalion to attack fiercely! Even if they had to use up all their artillery shells, they had to get rid of the Sakata United Team!”
Although Chu Yunfei graduated from the Huangpu Military Academy, he was from Wutai Mountain in Shanxi Province. He was from the same hometown as Yang Aiyuan, the commander-in-chief of the Sixth Army. He was deeply appreciated by Yang Aiyuan.
His 358th Regiment was the main force of the sixth army.
Not only did he have a cavalry unit, but he also had an artillery unit.
6 Jin manufactured Type 13 75mm mountain cannons.
This was Chu Yunfei's treasure.
They wouldn't move out easily!
He heard that the regiment commander was going to mobilize the artillery battalion and bombard the Japanese army with all their might. "Regiment Commander!" Fang Ligong hurriedly tried to persuade him. It's not easy for us to have this artillery battalion. If something went wrong, it would be difficult to explain to Officer Yang!”
Chu Yunfei didn't care at all.
Leave the cannonballs behind, they won't lay eggs.
Killing the Japanese was more important.
"Don't worry! As long as we take out the Sakata United Army, not only will the commander not blame us, he will reward us. There will be empty shells!"
Fang Ligong thought of Chu Yunfei's background and nodded. "Yes, I am. This subordinate will go and pass on the order!"
Following the regiment commander's order, the 358th regiment, which had long been prepared, attacked and headed straight for the Gray Cloud Ridge!
When they were still 5,000 meters away from the Japanese army's position in the Gray Cloud Ridge.
The artillery battalion commander, Lieutenant Colonel Liang Guoping, got off his horse and shouted. "Hurry, hurry! Motherf * cker, hurry up and push Mountain Cannon over!”
The artillery quickly untied the mountain cannon from the pull of the horse and pushed it into the position.
Each 75mm mountain cannon was placed 20 meters apart.
Jin made Type 13 75mm mountain cannon,
The initial velocity of the cannonball was 342 m/s, the maximum range was 6000 m, and the total weight was 540 kg.
2,500 meters in front of the mountain cannon position, the 82mm mortar was also dismounted from the horse and assembled on the position.
Jin made 82mm mortars to imitate the French M1927 81mm mortars.
The cannon weighed 70kg and had a maximum range of 2850 meters.
The 358th Regiment Artillery Battalion.
The cannoneer observed the distance with his binoculars and used his thumb to estimate the distance. He quickly calculated with a pen and reported the parameters.
The second gunner quickly adjusted the muzzle according to the parameters reported by the first gunner.
The three gunners carried the cannonballs from the wooden box.
The four cannoneers took the shells, removed the safety devices, stuffed them into the barrel, and closed the gate.
Make sure the shells are loaded!
Hearing Chu Yunfei's order, the commander of the artillery battalion, Lieutenant Colonel Liang Guoping, shouted,"
"Ready! Release!"
The soldier immediately put down the flag in his hand.
The artillery platoons had already adjusted their firing angles, and the muzzles were all pointed at the Japanese camp.
The five cannoneers immediately stepped forward and pulled the fire rope.
The cannon suddenly shook.
Six shells shot into the sky and flew in an arc toward the Japanese army.
After the test firing, the artillery positions gave a series of commands to adjust the data, and immediately began three rounds of salvo.
Normally, the well-trained Japanese army would never let the enemy get so close without noticing.
However, when the new group broke out of the encirclement, they killed Daisuke Sakata and destroyed the command center.
Even though they had the upper hand, the enemy had actually killed the highest ranking officer of the regiment.
This was simply a disgrace to the alliance.
The three battalions of Japanese soldiers under the alliance were all focused on stopping the new group from breaking out, wanting to wash away their humiliation.
In order to stop the new regiment from breaking through, the Japanese army focused their energy on the direction of the Gray Cloud Ridge.
They had never thought that the Jinsui Army, which had always liked to preserve their strength, would actually dare to take the initiative to attack.
There were not many soldiers behind them.
It was this situation that gave the 358th Regiment an opportunity.
The Japanese army was desperately trying to block the breakthrough of the new regiment when they suddenly heard the sound of artillery.
The Japanese heard the sound of cannons.
However, most of the Japanese didn't care at all.
Tuba Road had no cannons at all.
From the sound of the cannons, one could tell that many were firing.
It must be their own artillery fire, which must be directed at the enemy.
What was there to be afraid of!
Ordinary Japanese soldiers didn't care, but the captain of the Japanese artillery squadron, Sato, was stunned when he heard the sound of the cannon.
Their cannons had just finished a round of fire, and they had not fired yet!
Where did the cannons come from?
In the next second, he widened his eyes and looked at the black dot that fell from the sky.
"Cannon! Quickly lie down!"
It was too late!
A group of artillery shells whizzed down and landed on the Japanese artillery position.
The first round of test shots missed by nearly 20 meters.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions sounded.
The explosion lifted the ground!
The sand and mud that came from the sky sprinkled all over the ghost.
Sato got up from the ground and shouted angrily without checking the damage.
"Hurry up and move the position!"
The Japanese soldiers of this period were not the same as the Japanese soldiers at the end of the war. Their individual soldiers were still of high quality.
Encountering the bombardment, the Japanese artillery quickly divided their work.
He carried the cannonball box and pulled the cannon with the horse before quickly moving.
If they were one step behind on the battlefield, they would fall into a passive position.
Before the Japanese could move completely.
Another round of cannon fire landed.
This time, the Japanese were not so lucky.
The adjusted parameters of the artillery landed on the Japanese artillery positions.
Immediately, 2 Type 92 Infantry Cannons were overturned by the mortar shells of the 358th Regiment.
17 artillery soldiers were killed.
The Mountain Cannon Company opened fire, and the reinforced mortar company directly under the regiment also showed its might.
Although the 358th Regiment only had six mountain cannons, they had quite a few mortars.
There were a total of eight 82mm mortars, which were the backbone of Chu Yunfei's firepower output.
The mortar reinforcement company, which had already occupied a favorable position, cooperated with the mountain artillery to smash the shells into the Japanese artillery positions one after another.
The defenseless Japanese were instantly stunned?
It landed on the Japanese army's position and smashed the Japanese soldiers into pieces.
After a round of bombardment, the artillery squadron directly under the regiment had six Type 92 infantry cannons, and only three were left!。
After two minutes, they moved their positions.
The Japanese artillery squadron quickly calculated the enemy's artillery position.
The remaining 3 70mm Type 92 Infantry Cannons and 6 37mm Anti-Tank Cannons turned their muzzles and prepared to counterattack.
The first cannoneer finally calculated the approximate position of the enemy artillery position.
He quickly reported the parameters.
The second gunner desperately shook the handle to adjust the muzzle.
Once the adjustments were done, the second and third cannoneers quickly stuffed the shells into the barrels. The fourth cannoneer pulled the musket.
Boom!
The Japanese Artillery Squadron finally counterattacked!
However, after fighting the devils for so many years, the Jinsui Army was not stupid.
After three consecutive shots, the artillery battalion of the 358th Regiment immediately shifted their position.
The moment it landed, the first gunner quickly calculated the new parameters and reported them.
Less than a minute after the Japanese artillery counterattacked, the artillery battalion of the 358th Regiment began the second round of bombardment.
In order to counterattack, the Japanese artillery squadron was a minute late in shifting positions and suffered another round of attacks.
Another Type 92 Infantry Cannon was destroyed.
Seeing that another cannon was destroyed, Sato gritted his teeth and shouted,""Move the position!"
He wanted to continue shifting his position and wait for an opportunity to counterattack.
However, at this moment, the 2,000 soldiers of the 358th Regiment rushed towards the Japanese's position with their guns.
The Type 92 heavy machine gun of the Japanese artillery squadron was the first to fire.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A series of bullets swept over and immediately interrupted the charge of Regiment 358.
The commander of the 1st Battalion, Qian Bojun, immediately lay down and shouted to his side,""Machine Gunner, counterattack. Li Guosheng, f * cking kill those machine guns!”
The light machine gun was set up and fired at the Japanese heavy machine gun.
Li Guosheng, the platoon leader of the artillery platoon of the 1st Battalion, quickly ordered his subordinates to set up two newly manufactured 75mm mortars.
He personally took the shells and stuffed them into the barrel.
The cannonball drew a line and landed beside the heavy machine gun before exploding.
Kill the Machine Gunner!
Seeing the machine gunner who killed the Japanese, Qian Bojun shouted,""Brothers, go! Take down the Japanese's position. Everyone will be rewarded with 3 dollars!"
Hearing that there was a reward, the morale of the soldiers in the first battalion was boosted. They immediately got up from the ground and rushed towards the Japanese's position with their guns.
