While Lao Ma and Lao Hu were busy commanding, a squadron of the little devils launched an attack, because they didn't know how many people were arranged on the position, and the vanguard suffered a big loss, and the commander of the little devil didn't dare to put all the heavy troops into it, so he could only send a squadron of soldiers to test it first.

"Why did the damn little devil come up with such a few people, don't they have tens of thousands of troops? This is a call for Hanako! "Lao Hu was lying on the front line to observe the attack of the little devil, and he thought that the little devil would put in heavy troops.

"The order goes down, the first battalion and the second battalion are not allowed to fire, and the third battalion will fight when the little devil is closer." Lao Hu decisively ordered.

The commander of the little devil didn't expect that the people who were fighting against them were all veterans who had experienced many battles, and the lieutenant general of the little devil thought that Liao Fan's troops were very similar to the Eighth Route Army, but they were several times more numerous than the Eighth Route Army, so they could take advantage of the previous battles.

The little devil got closer and closer, and of course Ma Wanzhong and Hu Guoshan knew that this was the little devil engaged in fire reconnaissance.

Hu Guoshan ordered to shoot, and the little devil also approached the first line of defense in alternate cover, after all, only one battalion of soldiers was fighting, and the other soldiers were on standby, so the little devil easily approached the first line of defense.

Of course, the little devil also saw that Hu Guoshan did not expose their real firepower: "Tell the charging squadron leader to ask them to speed up the charge and rush directly to the position of the Zhina." ”

"No, what is Lao Hu doing, his battalion can't stop the attack of the devils of this squadron." Ma Wanzhong saw in the telescope that the direction of the little devil's attack was the defense line of the third battalion of Lao Hu, "Send an order, let the commander of the third battalion take two companies of soldiers to attack the side of the little devil." ”

The explosion of the "boom boom" grenade exploded on the flank of the little devil's attack, followed by dense gunfire, the flank of the little devil was not protected by troops, and in a moment's effort, the flank of the little devil was beaten in all directions, and there was a direct danger of being divided and surrounded.

"Retreat! Fall back! "The squadron leader of the little devil was worried that his troops were surrounded, and immediately ordered a retreat.

"We'll withdraw too." The third battalion commander rushed out of the bunker to launch an attack on the little devils, and the effect had been achieved, if they delayed any longer, the little devils' shells would definitely hit their heads, so they quickly withdrew to the bunkers with the soldiers.

Hu Guoshan saw that the little devil had withdrawn, and shouted at Ma Wanzhong on the other side of the mountain: "Old Ma, Lao Tzu can still deal with it, I don't need you to help." ”

"Do you think I want to help? It still depends on your clumsiness, Lao Tzu is afraid that you will expose your firepower position. Ma Wanzhong also shouted at Hu Guoshan.

But when the commander of the little devil heard this, he didn't think that the two of them were arguing, but were provoking them.

The lieutenant general of the little devil heard the shouting of the two people, and shouted angrily: "Order the troops to attack immediately." ”

The sound of the "boom boom" explosion covered the conversation between Ma Wanzhong and Hu Guoshan.

"Everyone immediately moved to the anticline." Hu Guoshan didn't expect that the little devil would suffer such a loss and give them such a big move.

A new round of shells once again covered the first line of defense, but fortunately all the soldiers were hidden in strong fortifications, otherwise they would have lost a lot of 3,000 men in this round of shelling.

"Damn, the little devil knows that there is no cannon to bully Lao Tzu, if Brother Fan transfers me an artillery company, Lao Tzu will not blow up your little devil who doesn't know the east, west, north and south." Hu Guoshan hid in the bunker and complained, "If you want to say that Brother Fan is too picky, he didn't transfer a mortar to us, but gave Liu Chundao an artillery company." ”

The little devil did not stop the shelling because of Lao Hu's complaints, but more and more shells poured into the position.

"Commander, the little devil's infantry has begun to charge." A soldier who was observing from the front came running over to report that a mortar shell had just hit the bunker in front of him, and he was a little dizzy and unable to stand on his feet.

"Everyone obeys the order and immediately returns to position."

When the little devil was halfway through the charge, the little devil stopped shelling, for fear of accidentally injuring his own people.

"Hit!"

At the sound of an order, all kinds of light and heavy firepower hiding in the bunker opened fire at the same time, and the defense line of several kilometers was full of shouts of killing, and the trap set by Lao Hu was blown up by the artillery fire of the little devil, and it no longer had any effect. The little devil's infantry kept approaching the position, and Lao Hu ordered to throw grenades to force the little devil back.

"Boom, boom, boom" The little devil just retreated, and before Lao Hu could order the troops to transfer, the little devil's artillery fire covered the position again, and the newly repaired bunker was blown up again.

Lao Hu no longer complained, but found a branch and kept writing some words on the ground that he couldn't understand, maybe he was cursing the little devil, maybe it was another form of prayer, or it was to divert the depression brought by the little devil's artillery.

The shelling of the little devils did not bring them much loss, more of a psychological deterrent, a long time of artillery coverage and people around them constantly falling, this is indeed a great test for the soldiers, the veterans who have experienced many battles are okay, for the recruits, both physically and psychologically, it will cause a special pressure.

But now who can take care of the psychological problems of the soldiers, Hu Guoshan knows that the soldiers who survive today will definitely have nightmares at night, but he believes that as long as they survive today, no matter how powerful the artillery fire is encountered in the future, these soldiers will be able to take charge alone.

This time, Lao Hu Xiu's fortifications have made a contribution, and the mortar shells fell on the fortifications and only rubbed off a layer of skin, but the explosion of the shells made people really dizzy, and what really threatened the fortifications was the little devil's Type 96 155mm howitzer, and the collapsed fortifications were all masterpieces of the Type 96 howitzers.

What Liao Fan is most curious about is how the little devil transported such a heavy howitzer in such a short time, the little devil's howitzer is not as light as his French howitzer, and the little devil's howitzer is not suitable for mechanized troops at all.

Of course, the troops on the front line would not think about so many problems like Liao Fan, they were more worried about whether the shells would blow up their fortifications and bury themselves in them, and every soldier was nervous. Of course, there are also big-hearted soldiers, veterans who have experienced countless battles, and they are a group of people with big hearts, because they know that no matter how much they worry, they are more willing to look at the recruits around them and joke with them.

"The little devil is up again!"

With a shout, the fighters hurriedly moved from the anticline to the front, loaded the bullets, ready to give the little devil a blow.

"Third battalion commander, transfer two machine guns from your battalion to the first battalion." The third battalion was the attack position with the least number of troops invested by the little devils, and the first battalion of Ma Wanzhong served as the frontal defense, and the little devils invested heavy troops to attack, and Ma Wanzhong had to actively mobilize his troops to strengthen the defensive strength of the first battalion.

"Old Ma, how are you doing here? We repelled another charge from the little devils. Hu Guoshan took advantage of the gap between the little devil's attacks and ran to Ma Wanzhong's group to check.
