The field artillery squadron and the heavy artillery squadron brought themselves enough shells, and the chief of staff was not at all worried about his own lack of shells.

As soon as the bombing was over, four mountain guns, four field guns, and four heavy guns roared one after another.

Shells don't want to be like money to smash into the positions that have been shrouded in gunsmoke.

The roaring cannon fire lasted for ten minutes.

In the opinion of the chief of staff, after such fierce fire preparations, a single mosquito on the position could be torn apart, not to mention the flesh and blood of the Eighth Route Army, so they must have suffered heavy casualties, and they may not have been blown up to the ground.

With this in mind, the chief of staff confidently ordered: "Heavy machine guns and mortars begin to fire, the attacking troops press up and occupy the positions of the garrison regiments!" ”

Then he raised his binoculars and looked at the battlefield.

Compared with mountain artillery and heavy artillery, although the power of the mortar is inferior, the rate of fire is fast and the accuracy is high.

The shells rained down on the front line of the position, and almost none missed. Splashes of fire, permeated with gunsmoke, continued to envelop the position.

Heavy machine guns also joined the battle, and bullets weaved into a network of fire over the heads of the attacking troops, whizzing towards the positions of the garrison.

Nearly 100 Imperial Allies and nearly 200 Imperial Army, armed with guns, light machine guns, and grenadiers, lined up in three straggler lines, rushed out of their positions and rushed towards the garrison.

The whole attack was exactly the same as the chief of staff had judged in his heart.

The attacking troops were so strong that they did not encounter any resistance, and easily reached the position of forty or fifty meters in front of the formation.

This is a very critical distance, in order to avoid accidental injury, the mortar had to stop firing, the remaining Eighth Route Army has the last chance to counterattack, if they do not catch it, then they will completely lose the opportunity to hold the position.

The attacking troops could then take advantage of the situation to enter the position, destroy the Eighth Route Army through hand-to-hand combat, and occupy the position.

On the contrary, if the Eighth Route Army seized this opportunity, the attacking troops would definitely have to work hard to get into the position.

If you are too unlucky, you may be repelled by the remnants of the Eighth Route Army......

The chief of staff's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and his eyes were fixed on the battlefield, fearing that something would happen and cause the entire attack to collapse.

Fortunately, the attacking troops rushed to thirty meters in front of the formation, and there was not much movement on the position.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

Explosions resounded on the battlefield, grenades thrown by the attacking troops.

Amid the violent explosion, more than 200 soldiers rushed into the position that was still filled with gunsmoke like a pack of hungry wolves.

"Sir, the attacking force has rushed up." Shao Zuo, who was beside the chief of staff, shouted excitedly, with a smile on his face.

The corners of the chief of staff's mouth rose slightly, and he also showed a smile: "The killing is up, and there is no exchange of fire on the position." It must have been the Eighth Route Army, which suffered heavy casualties, collapsed without a fight, abandoned its position and ran away. ”

Speaking of this, the smile on the chief of staff's face became more and more intense, and it seemed that he had seen the tragic picture of the corpses of the Eighth Route Army all over the position.

"Boom ......"

Suddenly, a series of explosions came from a few hundred meters away, deafening, and at once pulled the chief of staff back to reality from his dream.

frowned and shouted: "What happened to the explosion just now, could it be that the artillery of the Eighth Route Army appeared!" ”

"Contact the planes in the sky right away to find them, and then kill them."

The chief of staff reacted quickly, but the shells flew faster.

"Boom ......"

As soon as the subordinates were about to signal the pilot with their tools, an explosion sounded.

More than ten large fireballs of seven or eight meters high instantly rose from the gunsmoke-filled position, and thick black smoke pillars rose into the sky under the wrapping of the fireballs......

"It's the Flying Thunder Cannon......" the chief of staff shouted with his mouth open.

He had not only heard of such powerful home-made weapons, but had also seen them with his own eyes.

It was a battle in which the main force of the division encircled and suppressed the garrison.

To this day, I still remember the picture I saw at that time.

Now I encountered the flying thunder cannon again, although the position was filled with gunsmoke and I couldn't see anything, but the tragic pictures I had seen were like playing a movie, and one scene after another appeared in front of my eyes.

An explosive bag smashed down, and the soldiers within a radius of four or five meters were directly torn to pieces by the powerful shock wave, and their bones were gone.

The soldiers farther away were blown over and fell to the ground, bleeding to death......

Soldiers farther away were stunned or seriously injured and incapacitated......

As long as the explosive package falls in a good enough position, only one is needed to reimburse most of the infantry squad of the Imperial Army, and the power is not worse than that of heavy artillery shells.

The smile on the chief of staff's face was gone, it was replaced by seriousness again, and his expression became more and more solemn.

Very anxious ordered: "Quickly contact the plane, find the artillery position of the Eighth Route Army, and destroy it!" ”

"The artillery unit immediately counterattacked, covering the retreat of the attacking troops, this is a trap."

The chief of staff was fortunate and very glad that the Flying Thunder Cannon stopped after only one round of explosive packs.

It's not that Li Hao doesn't want to play the second round.

There are planes in the sky and artillery on the ground to counterattack at any time, and the longer the flying thunder artillery unit is exposed, the greater the chance of being attacked, and the greater the losses in battle.

The battle in front of him was just an appetizer that Li Hao prepared for the devil.

He didn't want to have a lot of casualties among the troops who participated in the battle just after eating an appetizer.

The Flying Thunder Artillery unit has been lurking 200 meters behind the position, and the mounted Flying Thunder Cannon and the gunner's individual bunker are all tightly camouflaged.

During the Japanese bombardment and artillery bombardment, because it was too far from the position, not a single gunner was affected by the artillery fire.

When the attacking troops rushed to the positions that had been flattened by shells and bombs, the gunners immediately came out of the individual bunkers, lifted the camouflage covering the flying thunder guns, ignited, opened fire, and finally moved.

The whole action was smooth and completed in less than twenty seconds.

When the planes escorting the air received the signal of support from the ground troops, they swept over the ground with a roar, trying to find the position of the garrison's flying thunder artillery, dozens of gunners had already drilled into the forest next to the station.

"Sir, the plane did not find the artillery position of the Eighth Route Army......" the liaison staff officer ran over and reported.

"Sir, the artillery has judged the approximate location of the artillery position of the Eighth Route Army according to the range of the flying thunder cannon, but it is very likely that they have already moved, and the artillery unit asks whether to open fire." The artillery staff officer ran over and reported.

The chief of staff scolded with a calm face: "The Eighth Route Army has run away, what's the use of firing artillery, is it a waste of shells?" ”

"The Imperial Allied Army will draw another company into the position to assist the attacking troops in rescuing the wounded, quick!"

"Even the main force of the garrison regiment suffered such a big loss without encountering it, and the attacking troops must have suffered heavy casualties, and we must avenge this revenge."

"Contact the plane, keep an eye on the garrison assembly area, and find that the Eighth Route Army will immediately bomb it."
