The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 1197 The second gift (second update)

"Sir, it's time to rest. It's already very late. You have to command operations tomorrow. You must rest well to have enough energy..." The guard suddenly walked to the chief of staff to remind him.

The chief of staff glanced at the watch on his wrist and looked away from the map. He sighed and replied: "There are too many places in Fangshan where troops can be hidden."

"Without intelligence support and just relying on us to analyze the map, it is almost impossible to find the hiding place of the guerrilla brigade."

"You are right. Only with good rest, sufficient physical strength and experience can we be invincible in our actions tomorrow."

"go to sleep……"

"Woooooooo..."

As a result, as soon as he returned to his room and lay down on the bed, the ear-piercing scream of the shells streaking across the sky rang in his ears.

He trembled with fright and quickly sat up from the bed.

"Rumble..."

Violent explosions immediately rang in his ears, and two or three of them were very close to him, as if they were in his ears.

"What's going on... Where was the artillery fire just now? Why is the explosion point so close to us?" the chief of staff shouted to the people outside the door as he trotted towards the door.

When he opened the door, he saw a huge crater in the backyard of the headquarters. Three soldiers fell next to them. The body on the side opposite the impact point was directly blown to pieces.

A staff officer ran towards him from the war room at the same time, reporting as he ran: "Sir..."

"We can't go to the war room..."

"You must leave the headquarters immediately, this place is being targeted by unknown artillery fire..."

"The gate of the headquarters was hit by a shell, and the machine gun team and sentries guarding the gate were all shattered..."

"The next round might hit the war room."

After speaking, he ordered the guards swarming around him: "Protect the chief of staff and retreat from the back door... Hurry up, it will be too late if you don't leave... Boom..."

As soon as the Chief of Staff stepped out of the backyard gate of the headquarters, a thunderous explosion sounded behind him. Looking back, he saw three plumes of black smoke rising from the headquarters. One plume of black smoke was located in the backyard of the headquarters, and two plumes of black smoke were located in the backyard of the headquarters. The location of the war room.

The subordinates who escaped from the war room reported with panic on their faces: "Sir..."

"The war room was hit by a shell..."

"It was razed to the ground on the spot, and the telecommunications room was also hit by a shell. The operator was killed before he could snatch the radio out, and the radio was buried in the rubble."

"Bagh Ya Road..." the chief of staff cursed as he moved with the guards.

"This must have been done by the Eighth Route Army's guerrilla brigade."

"Yesterday afternoon, they first used mortars to attack us from a long distance, and now they use mountain artillery to attack our base from a long distance. It is simply too deceiving."

"Immediately send an order to the artillery brigade and large-caliber mortar squadron to immediately lock in the Eighth Route Army's artillery positions and launch a counterattack."

"We must kill them, take the opportunity to destroy the artillery unit of the guerrilla brigade, and avenge our shame."

"Ha Yi..." After hearing the news, several messengers moved towards the artillery position with their legs raised.

The chief of staff was escorted by guards to a two-story building 300 meters away from the headquarters for reinforcements.

Immediately climb to the top of the building and look around.

On the way to transfer, he heard the explosion of a large number of artillery shells in the city, including field artillery and mortars.

However, only three mountain cannons attacked the headquarters, indicating that there were other places in Fangshan County that were bombarded.

I don’t know, I’m scared.

The four city gates of Fangshan and the garrison in the city all burst into flames, and black smoke rose into the sky, which meant that those places were also hit by heavy artillery fire. Raise the telescope and look at the station closest to you.

"Rumble..."

As soon as a series of explosions sounded in my ears, a large amount of fire erupted from the station two to three hundred meters away.

The place is illuminated instantly.

With the help of binoculars, he could clearly see the soldiers of the Chief of Staff Company being blown away by artillery shells.

More soldiers rushed out of the barracks in panic, trying to evacuate the station and avoid the shells falling from the sky.

But cannonballs don’t have eyes, and people kept getting killed on the way to transfer.

Some soldiers were buried in the ruins without even breaking out of their barracks.

The chief of staff became more and more anxious as he watched, and cursed again: "Why hasn't the artillery brigade fired back... Are they planning to watch the infantry being bombed by the Eighth Route Army's artillery raid..."

A subordinate next to him suddenly shouted: "Sir..."

"The artillery brigade station was also attacked..."

"It's very possible that we won't be able to set up artillery to counterattack immediately..."

"Nani?" When the chief of staff was about to continue cursing, the explosions from the city suddenly stopped.

Staring at the regiment headquarters that had been blown to pieces, he muttered to himself: "Is this the end of the Eighth Route Army's artillery raid?"

"Probably?"

The subordinates thought of the artillery attack the troops encountered on the march, and then analyzed it with a frown.

"If the Eighth Route Army artillery continues to fight, our artillery will have the opportunity to lock in their artillery positions and launch a counterattack, and their artillery will definitely suffer heavy losses in the battle."

"Furthermore, after the initial panic of our troops, many soldiers have already evacuated the station and prepared for artillery defense. The effect of the Eighth Route Army's artillery attack on us was greatly reduced..."

"In addition, they still need time to move their artillery positions to avoid our artillery counterattacks..."

"I judge that their artillery raids should have stopped. The troops are moving the artillery and will not give us a chance to counterattack..."

After hearing this, the chief of staff became even more angry and cursed: "In other words, the Eighth Route Army wanted to run away after they hit us with artillery fire..."

"And our troops don't even have a chance to fight back and can only defend their base and be beaten passively?"

The subordinates knew that the chief of staff was angry and did not want to answer this question, for fear that if they did not pay attention, they would get burned.

But facing the burning eyes of the chief of staff, he had to bite the bullet and answer: "This is what I think in my humble position..."

Seeing that the chief of staff was about to curse again, his subordinates quickly reminded him: "Sir, please calm down..."

"Although we can't use artillery fire to fight back, as long as we find their hiding place tomorrow, we can still send troops to eliminate them and avenge our shame..."

"The top priority now is to save people, prevent the troops from being attacked by the Eighth Route Army's artillery fire again, and reduce the casualties of the troops..."

The chief of staff took several deep breaths to regain his composure. He suppressed the anger that was rising and ordered: "Then let them go for now, notify the troops to rescue the wounded immediately, and count the battle losses."

"From now on, all troops must evacuate the original Fangshan garrison and find new garrison on their own, but they must stay away from the previous garrison."

"After the casualties are tallied, the captains of each brigade will come here immediately for a meeting and report the casualties to me in person."
