"Is there a hurry to get in time? In case the little devils rush in front of us and the machine guns are not in place, we will suffer a big loss. Ma Wanzhong thought that Hu Guoshan was going to pull all the heavy firepower to the second line of defense.

"Don't worry, we're just withdrawing the heavy fire to the anti-slope, as long as the little devil's shelling stops, I guarantee that all the machine guns will be in place within a minute." Hu Guoshan is full of confidence in the fortifications he has dug out.

After listening to Hu Guoshan, Ma Wanzhong came directly to Hu Guoshan and looked Hu Guoshan up and down.

Hu Guoshan was uncomfortable by Ma Wanzhong: "Old Ma, I'm the same as Brother Fan, I don't like men." ”

"you, you old beard is full of beard, who will like you, recruit from the truth, did Brother Fan open a small stove for you." It turned out that Ma Wanzhong thought that these methods could not have been figured out by Hu Guoshan himself.

"Hehe, although my old Hu is not a military genius, no matter how he says it, he is also a military all-rounder, can he still stump me for this little thing?" Lao Hu feels that if you don't pretend to be forced at this time, you have to show off the professional terms you have learned so hard in front of your old horse.

", anticlines are often used by artillery, and if you actually use them for infantry, you can also think of Brother Fan's unusual head." Ma Wanzhong really didn't believe that Hu Guoshan came up with it.

"I learned it from the drawings that Brother Fan gave me, and Brother Fan marked the drawings very clearly, let's use the anticline to guard against the little devil howitzer." Lao Hu knew that he couldn't hide this matter from Ma Wanzhong, so he had to tell the truth.

"What else is on the drawings?" Ma Wanzhong seemed to have found some treasure.

"No, that's all, don't believe it for yourself." Lao Hu took out the drawings.

Of course, Ma Wanzhong would not really be jealous with Hu Guoshan: "Okay, quickly put away the treasure in your hand, I will arrange for the brothers first, and let them be careful of the little devil's artillery." ”

Under the arrangement of two people, except for the soldiers who left observation in a special place, the rest of the soldiers moved to the anticline of the mountain, which took only a few minutes.

Of course, the little devils who were rescuing the wounded at the foot of the mountain didn't know that the second battalion commander had given up on them, because the second battalion commander had been staring at them for more than ten minutes, and the little devils just didn't show their heads. In fact, in order to save his life, the lieutenant of the little devil ordered everyone to stop acting and wait for the support of the large army.

The hundreds of wounded of the little devils have suffered, and those who are slightly less injured can still hold on, and those who are slightly more serious are either unconscious or have bled to death.

Within half an hour, all the troops of the little devils were already in place, and the captain, who had newly taken over the command position, reported to the lieutenant commander of the little devils what they had encountered.

"Order the artillery, fire smoke bombs at the positions of the Chinese army, and immediately organize troops to rescue the wounded." The commander of the little devil stood in a good position to observe Liao Fan's first line of defense, and apart from being able to see some artificially dug holes and trenches, he couldn't see any bunkers that could hide a large number of soldiers. Of course, he also believes that rescuing the wounded is the top priority, after all, this is related to the morale of the whole army, if the wounded are not treated, the soldiers will not brave the enemy's bullets and bullets desperately.

After the little devil fired a smoke bomb, Hu Guoshan ordered that no one was allowed to shoot without authorization, and everyone knew that shooting casually if they could not see the target was equivalent to emptying the gun.

Before the smoke screen cleared, the little devils opened fire, and shells of various calibers such as mortars, mountain artillery, and howitzers smashed into the first line of defense.

Hearing the sound of cannons, Hu Guoshan shouted at Ma Wanzhong: "Old Ma, if we have such a good guy, we must be a little devil to taste it." ”

"Don't dream, although we have an artillery battalion, there are more soldiers than shells, and Brother Fan is reluctant to squander it like this." Ma Wanzhong bounced off the rocks and soil on his clothes that had been knocked down by the shells.

"The little devil is really fucking rich, and he didn't do a fire reconnaissance, so he just did it when he came up, and he wasn't afraid of wasting it." The explosion covered out Lao Hu's voice, and Ma Wanzhong couldn't hear what Hu Guoshan said at all.

"The little devil is going to fight with us at all costs, and when the first charge of the little devil is repulsed, you go and report the casualties and ammunition consumption to Brother Fan." This is an order given to them by Liao Fan, every time they repel a charge from the little devil, they must immediately make statistics and report it to Liao Fan.

At this time, Liao Fan was on a hill in the third line of defense, and he clearly saw with a telescope that the little devil's artillery was bombarding the first line of defense indiscriminately.

"No, if it goes on like this, Lao Hu and they won't be able to last long." Although the little devil does not have the cover of tanks and armored vehicles, there are so many shells that are enough to flatten the first line of defense, "Chunjian, call the commander of the first and second companies of the artillery battalion." "The third company of the artillery battalion has already let Liu Chundao take it away.

"Report, when will Brother Fan and our two companies be on board?" Two company commanders came to Liao Fan's side.

"When you go up, you two will observe the little devil's artillery position first." Liao Fan handed the telescope to the first company commander, and the first company commander handed it to the second company commander after reading it.

After the two of them finished observing, Liao Fan asked: "Can you judge how far away the little devil's mortar is from us based on the sound of the little devil's cannon firing and the sound of the shell exploding?" ”

"Brother Fan, it's too far, the little devil's artillery position is at least eight thousand meters away from us, and the maximum range of our mortars is five thousand meters, which is still at a fixed angle, and there is no accuracy at all." The second company commander said.

Of course, Liao Fan knew that the best mortar he was equipped with was a "thirties-style" 120 mm mortar, although this mortar was a good thing in the eyes of the Chinese, but the same mortar of the little devil can reach 6,000 meters, don't look at the difference of only 1,000 meters, the Chinese army can suffer a lot of losses from the little devil.

"Brother Fan, what the second company commander said is right, not to mention the few Type 92 infantry guns we captured from the little devils, they can't reach them at all." The first company commander said.

"Brother Fan, don't we have two French howitzers?" The commander of the second company proposed that with these two howitzers, it would definitely be possible to reach the artillery position of the little devils.

"No, these two cannons can't be moved until they have to." Liao Fan didn't want the battle to be fought yet, and his only two howitzers with deterrent power were exposed, which would definitely attract the little devil's plane.

The two artillery company commanders didn't expect Liao Fan to be so precious about their howitzers, and the two looked at each other.

"It looks like we'll have to wait until it's dark." Liao Fan wanted to get rid of the little devil's artillery position, but now he couldn't get too close, so he could only hope that the little devil would not transfer the artillery position at night, "You two go back and prepare, bring all the mortars at night, and we will raid the little devil's artillery position." ”

Liao Fan knew that it was dangerous for the artillery to act alone without the protection of the infantry, but it was still worth blocking.

The little devil finally stopped the shelling, and Ma Wanzhong and Hu Guoshan urged their soldiers to hurry into the battle position and prepare for battle: "Hurry up, the little devil is coming up, wait for my order to shoot again." "There were a few bunkers that obviously couldn't support the little devils' artillery fire, and Lao Hu arranged for a company of soldiers to repair the fortifications as much as possible.
