Chapter 21: The General Offensive in Advance

As Lin Daba, who was unlucky in history and now, he is indeed unlucky today. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

If it weren't for the fact that he scolded his colleagues in the Ninth Mountain Artillery Wing on the phone, the Ninth Mountain Artillery Wing would not have borrowed a few infantry guns from several other infantry brigades and sent them to the artillery positions on the front line overnight in order to suppress the artillery fire of the national army.

No one could have imagined that a Type 41 75mm infantry gun, the best of the Japanese army's current life, would directly plunge more than 10,000 Japanese troops into the abyss. From its inception in 1917 to Japan's defeat in 1945, the Type 41 75mm infantry gun has been widely used in the Japanese army, not only in Japan, but also in China, and is also the backbone of the artillery units of the national army, and has even been used by the red troops until the Korean battlefield.

In terms of the technical level at that time, the Type 41 mountain gun was a mountain gun with very good performance, and it was definitely the world's first-class level.

It uses advanced hydromechanical composite retraction mechanism technology, and the rate of fire of the gun is as high as 10 rounds per minute, and the rate of fire of more advanced integrated shells is as high as 20 rounds per minute in the later stage.

More importantly, in order to shoot at fixed targets and fortifications, the Type 41 mountain gun could also fire flat.

Perhaps in order to show his determination to support friendly forces more vigorously, there were six boxes of shells piled up on the six-wheeled truck, which according to the supply of shells when Zhao Ergou was in the artillery unit of the Northeast Army, there were enough three bases.

However, now it is cheaper for Liu Lang and his soldiers.

"Fuck me up." Liu Lang gave an order.

"Yes" Zhao Ergou, who had already adjusted the angle and tested the gun distance, pulled sharply.

With a "boom", a ball of flame spat out from the flat muzzle.

Shells with muzzle velocities of 360 meters per second whizzed towards the target, and after 3 seconds, brighter flames rose from the bright light.

Zhao Ergou quickly picked up the cannonball, pushed it into the barrel again, squinted his eyes and adjusted the firing distance with his thumb again, and pulled it again, and there was a loud "boom" in the distance, and the flames raised more than ten meters high made Liu Lang seem to be able to feel the blazing temperature in his face.

"Mom, it's a big firework." Chi Dakui couldn't help but smash his mouth.

"Well, this cannon is so much more powerful than ours?" Zhao Ergou was also taken aback by the cannon he fired.

The first shell had hit accurately, and there was no suspense that Lin Daba Dazuo and Major General Jiro Sakata, who came to find fault on a whim, and the small farm yard they occupied were reduced to pieces.

Liu Lang didn't expect the unlucky attribute of a certain unlucky guy to be so sufficient, and the convoy carrying munitions from the division's ammunition depot twenty minutes ago passed by, because the commander of the baggage team wanted to report to Lin Dabazuo, and a car full of ammunition stopped next to the small courtyard. In order to ensure that the angle of Zhao Ergou was slightly adjusted, the second cannon directly hit the cart of munitions, and the detonation of a full 2 tons of ammunition not only blew up a radius of 200 meters into a blank ground, but also directly took the lives of nearly fifty little devils.

The entire headquarters of the 7th Wing was gone.

The unlucky Da Zuo is even worse than in history, in history, he was still carried back on a stretcher, and now, there is no need to burn, and the only thing he can find back is ashes.

"Quick, quick, push the cannon to the other side of the tunnel." Liu Lang didn't have time to think about the fact that there was still so much ammunition in the little devil's headquarters, so he turned around and ordered the soldiers to quickly push the infantry guns back.

If this is the case, the devil commander who should have been captured is still alive, and he has nothing to say. The most important thing now is that he has to fight a bloody way for himself and the remnants of the soldiers, and resist the attack of a squadron of little devils for at least 40 minutes.

And this infantry gun, which can shoot flat, is the biggest guarantee.

The biggest feature of the Type 41 mountain artillery is not the power of the cannonball, but it is very light compared to other mountain artillery, 500 kilograms of weight, two soldiers can push it around, almost all terrain can be maneuverable, here to the tunnel is only less than 200 meters away, in seven or eight remnants of you dragged me, soon deployed to the position designated by Liu Lang.

In the time when Liu Lang was busy preparing to fight with the devil, he was in an underground tunnel less than ten kilometers away from here in a straight line.

A white-faced, beardless soldier wearing a yellow tweed military uniform and carrying two golden three-pointed stars on his shoulders was pacing back and forth in the very simple war room with a horse lantern with a frown, when suddenly, the muffled sound of a huge explosion in the distance startled him, and he looked up sharply, and the edge of the dark sky in the distance was red.

This national army general, who had a strong mark in the history of the Anti-Japanese War, soon realized that the Japanese army on the opposite side was in trouble, because he knew very well how strong the artillery under his command was, and he would never be able to make such a violent explosion, and the sound could be transmitted here from ten kilometers away, even the huge naval guns of the Japanese naval fleet were not so awesome.

At the same time, the chief of staff of the major general, who was watching the map under the lantern, also raised his head in surprise to look at the fire in the distance and asked, "Military seat, where did the explosion come from?" ”

After a careful look through the lookout hole, a trace of doubt appeared on the face of the general of the national army, and he responded: "The explosion point should be in the northeast direction, not less than ten kilometers away from us. ”

"To the northeast, 10,000 meters away." The chief of staff quickly slid his finger on the desktop map, and the surprise on his face was even stronger: "That's the north of Miaohang Town, and it's only about two kilometers away from the position we lost during the day, it should be all little devils, what the hell are the little devils doing?" ”

"That position is defended by the troops of the national army? Look. The general of the national army suddenly moved and said.

"No need to check, that is the defense area of the three regiments under the 61st Division of Commander Cai of the 19th Route Army, after the whole army issued the order to retreat, because the regiment received the order too late, it had to order a reinforced company to be broken, and the 223 people in the company did not survive." The chief of staff of the major general replied with a gloomy expression.

"No life is still 。。。。。。" The generals of the national army were also silent.

This casualty is indeed too heavy.

Soon, a faint sadness was replaced by more perseverance, as the saying goes, Ci does not take charge of the army, there is no victory without sacrifice, and now more than 20,000 soldiers under his command are still waiting for his orders.

At this moment, the door of the underground bunker was suddenly pushed open, and a colonel rushed in panting, and said loudly with both legs together: "Report." ”

"Speak"

"Commander, the Japanese army's telegrams have suddenly become more frequent, like a frying pan, do you think the original battle plan is 。。。。。?"

"Hmm。。。。。" The general's brows not only furrowed again, but he pondered for a moment, as if he had made up his mind, and ordered loudly: "I order." ”

The two generals in the room looked straight and stood up straight with their legs together.

"The 88th Division Yu Jishi, the 61st Division of the 19th Route Army, Mao Weishou and the 87th Division, the 88th Division is the main attacker, the 61st Division and the 87th Division are responsible for the two wings, and the officers and men of the whole army need to kill the enemy with all their might, and they must not take half a step back." After a slight pause of half a second, he continued: "Anyone who retreats will be shot on the spot." Zhang Zhizhong. ”

The chief of staff of the major general and the colonel glanced at each other, and then looked at the resolute eyes of the army commander Zhang Zhizhong, and without hesitation, they responded in unison: "Yes." ”

"By the way, send the intercepted Japanese military telegram to the Central Secret Bureau, and let them see if they can decrypt it." Zhang Zhizhong immediately instructed the chief of the confidential section of the military department.

Zhang Zhizhong, a general who was evaluated as a patriot by the first prime minister of the Republic, undoubtedly made a wise choice in his life no less than the uprising sixteen years later.

The offense, which was supposed to be twenty minutes later, was brought forward.
