424. Chapter 424: Shock the 36th Army

Wu Qi's Seventh Army was urgently mobilized, and Wang Wei took one of his divisions to surround the garrison camp of the 36th Army from the side. Wu Qi commanded the remaining two divisions to advance from the front, and approached the main position of the 36th Army with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai.

"The 36th Army has one more mixed brigade than our 17th Army, and carries thirty-six 100-mm guns, and is also equipped with fifty 150-mm infantry guns, and its attack power is higher than that of our 17th Army! So this time, although I was tasked with encircling the main force of the New Fourth Army, it was the 36th Army that finally tempted you to come! Wu Qi hurriedly reported the situation of the 36th Army to Gaodong.

Just like returning to the original Huai River and Gucheng, Wu Qi automatically entered the role, regarded Gao Dong as the key to victory, and reported all the information to him without omission.

"Foot artillery?" Gao Dong sneered. He really didn't pay attention to the infantry defense guns equipped by the national army, although the caliber was very large, 150 millimeters, and the firing range was also very long. But after all, it was made in imitation of German weapons in the country, and it could be very useful against small Japanese troops, but it would be a joke to play against a well-armed independent brigade.

Gao Dong didn't explain anything, but hurried to his headquarters with Wu Qi. At this moment, all the commanders of the independent brigade are already waiting for Gao Dong's return, and they all understand that a big war in the real sense is about to really begin.

"Stand upright!" Seeing Gao Dong and Wu Qi coming in, all the regiment leaders straightened their waists, and their eyes flashed with light.

Just seeing the mental outlook of these leaders of the Independent Brigade, Wu Qi couldn't help but praise it in his heart. He has seen too many officers, and in the national army, which officer who can achieve the regimental level is not a bit of a shelf. Like the commanders of the Independent Brigade, these regiment commanders are respectful and respectful, like an ordinary soldier's class, Wu Qi has really never seen it.

"Yang Jihong, how many of your artillery pieces are in place?" Gao Dong asked loudly as soon as he came in.

"Report to the captain, all five hundred artillery pieces of the artillery unit are in place and ready to enter the combat position at any time." Yang Jihong shouted loudly.

"Very good, open all your artillery to me on the front line, and bombard the defense area of the 36th Army in depth. Remember, bomb for only ten minutes, never too long. Gao Dong pointed to the direction of the 36th Army on the military map and looked at his artillery commander calmly.

"Just ten minutes? You just took off your pants and didn't do anything? Captain, why don't you take an hour, then you can be lethal, and we will bring enough artillery fire this time. Yang Jihong was aggrieved, and it seemed that these ten minutes were completely overkill for him.

Gao Dong laughed, pointed at him and said, "You, you are used to fighting devils, and this time we are facing our own compatriots." Although they are the Kuomintang-Party army, they are also Chinese. Knowing is reasonable, but before that, there is a little deterrence by force, ten minutes is just right, and after a long time, you are slaughtering our compatriots. I don't know what you're capable of? A carpet-dense bombardment of their depths, leaving nothing to grow in the place where they pass, I can't let you play like that! ”

Yang Jihong raised his right hand weakly, saluted and said, "Yes, I carry out the order!" ”

"Second Commander!" Gao Dong continued to roar

"Here!" The second regiment commander, Ren Minjian, stepped out, there was no trace of superfluous emotion on his resolute face, and a strong desire shot out of his eyes, which was the desire to fight.

Gao Dong smiled slightly: "Everyone says that Yang Fei is the fierce Zhang Fei of my independent regiment, and this fierce general is always indispensable for the siege of the village." But how ruthless you are to the enemy, I think it's even better! Then this task of deterring the 36th Army will be entrusted to you, and when the artillery fire sounds, take your second regiment to insert a pair of piercing in the enemy's position like a sword. Your mission is the same as that of artillery, the main thing is to deter, just let them know our strength, you know? ”

"Yes!" Ren Minjian's voice was not loud, but with a kind of wireless rigidity, he turned around and went to deploy an attack.

The others, each leading their troops to disperse in an arc, approached the position of the 36th Army. This time, I'm going to capture this army completely! Gao Dong shouted in a deep voice!

"Yes!" The rest of the regiment leaders puffed up their chests, and the sound of their heels leaning together thumped, making Wu Qi's blood boil on the side.

"Brother Wu, it's up to you now! Let's sing red face and black face, don't mess up this play! Gao Dong looked at Wu Qi with a smile.

Wu Qi laughed: "Brother Gao, don't worry, we don't have other skills, is this scareful, there are still two brushes." ”

On the position of the 36th Army, Adjutant Zhao, Kong Sen's adjutant, had urgently received the information from the front. Kong Sen had already been killed in front of the battle, and all the guards had been captured. Hearing the news, he almost didn't fall on the spot, and followed Kong Sen for more than ten years, but he didn't expect this backer to fall overnight.

"Damn Wu Qi, you are so bold, you dare to fornicate with the enemy, you are really the opposite!" The furious Adjutant Zhao didn't even think about it, turned around and shouted to the guards: "Prepare the car, go to the artillery position, quickly!" ”

In the 36th Army, there was no deputy commander, no chief of staff, and there was only one commander in the military headquarters. This is something that would not be seen in any army, but in the 36th Army, Kong Sen's desire for power and hope overwhelmed everything. The 36th Army was his one-man unit, and it was also a hotbed for him to cultivate his own power.

Adjutant Zhao was under Kong Sen's seat, and even the division commanders usually nodded politely when they saw him, this guy seemed to have become the first person in the 36th Army after Kong Sen. There is a kind of majesty under one person and above ten thousand, and his orders are equivalent to Kong Sen's orders.

The military vehicle hurriedly drove towards the artillery position, and Adjutant Zhao, who had been carried away by anger and did not have any military command talent, was going to immediately blow up the headquarters where Wu Qi was located. He believed that as long as he bombed the opposing headquarters, he could fully receive the 17th Army.

As soon as the car stopped, Adjutant Zhao jumped off the military vehicle and shouted: "Quick, according to the coordinates, immediately bombard the headquarters of the 17th Army!" ”

The soldiers on the artillery position looked at each other, not reacting to what was going on for a moment. The commander of the artillery unit hurriedly ran to Adjutant Zhao, saluted and asked, "Adjutant Zhao, what do you say?" How did you bomb our allies? ”

As soon as the artillery commander finished speaking, a loud slap was already slapped in the face. He took several steps backwards before he could stand firm, and red blood was already flowing from the corners of his mouth.

"Do you want to bomb me or not? Does your little colonel have that qualification? Adjutant Zhao looked at the colonel with a look of pity, and snorted coldly: "What bullshit friendly army, Wu Qi has already rebelled, and they collaborated with the enemy in front of the battle." Now fire at me immediately, do you want to disobey? Or, you've also collaborated with the enemy? ”

The crime of collaborating with the enemy is not small, and it can be immediately shot and killed. The artillery commander was shocked, and he didn't dare to ask more, so he straightened up and shouted: "Adjust the muzzle, follow the coordinate instructions, and immediately fire at the headquarters of the 17th Army!" ”

Boom, boom, boom. Suddenly, the sound of explosions seemed to fall from the sky, and the entire position of the 36th Army was engulfed in artillery bombardment. Adjutant Zhao was so frightened that he immediately lay on the ground and looked at the artillery commander not far away. The artillery commander was at a loss, he hadn't fired yet, where did the explosion come from.

There was no room for them to think too much, and the dense explosions had already exploded on the positions of the 36th Army. Nearly 2,000 shells fell in one minute, and shells of various types exploded from the north to the south and from the east to the west.

Yang Jihong personally commanded the artillery unit to bomb, and Gao Dong only gave him ten minutes, so he compressed the usual twenty minutes of bombing into these ten minutes. In front of one artillery piece, the artillery of the Independent Brigade almost never stopped. Reloading, aiming, firing, reloading, all in one go, without half a minute of sluggishness.

"Fire...... Fire......! Yang Jihong's roar never seemed to stop, and the right hand that kept cutting through the air kept waving in the air.

At the same time, the sound of killing in front of the position of the 36th Army shook the sky. The large-caliber machine guns were mounted on the German-made military vehicles, and they fought all the way to the position of the 36th Army. Military trucks loaded with machine guns have been reinforced with armor to withstand light machine gun fire. From a distance, this behemoth looked like a moving fortress, and the 20 mm cannon became a life harvester, and the bullets were shattered everywhere they went. Whether it was people, weapons, bunkers, or trucks equipped by the 36th Army, they all fell apart and disintegrated into pieces under the powerful bullet fire.

Ren Minjian personally commanded the Second Regiment, followed by these eight modified "armored vehicles" of great destruction, and after driving all the way into the position of the 36th Army, it was like a sharp sword that went straight to the depth of the 36th Army's position.

The attack of the second regiment was no weaker than the attack of the first regiment of sharp knives, and although Ren Minjian usually spoke little, he was definitely a fierce general. At this moment he took off his shirt, revealing his strong arms. With a light machine gun in his hand, he roared and rushed to the front of the group. Shuttling through the flames, it is like the legendary King Kong who only lives forever in the flames.

The artillery bombardment, the sudden charge of the 2nd Regiment, instantly made a mess of the positions of the 36th Army. In the absence of command, the soldiers of the 36th Army immediately retreated when they encountered the charge of the 2nd Regiment, and the fire resistance was pitiful.

However, this is also a very wise choice for them, because as long as there is a fire blocking point, they will be immediately blown to pieces by the "armored vehicles" that catch up from behind, and the bunker and the people in the bunker will be swept into ashes by 20 mm caliber bullets.

The explosion lasted for ten minutes and finally ended, and Yang Jihong strictly executed Gao Dong's order without lasting even a second.

The grizzled Adjutant Zhao got up from the ground in embarrassment, and until now he was still at a loss, not knowing what was going on.

"Adjutant Zhao, Adjutant Zhao, no, we are surrounded by the Independent Brigade and the 17th Army!" An officer ran over in a panic!

"What?" Adjutant Zhao's sharp voice can puncture a person's eardrum, and his whole face becomes stunned!
