Chapter 184 Iron-clad blocking position (please subscribe!)

"Rumble..."

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the Niutoushan blocking position began to be covered by artillery fire from the Japanese army.

Mortar shells, mountain artillery shells, and infantry artillery shells are thrown on the mountainside like money...

In the blink of an eye, the blocking position was filled with gunpowder smoke. Standing in it in broad daylight, you couldn't see your fingers.

"Weng buzzing..."

The air escort planes also joined the battle, the roar became louder and louder, and they rushed towards the position like a falcon...

When there were still two to three hundred meters above the ground, the nose of the plane was raised suddenly, and it flew up to the sky again. An aerial bomb hanging on the belly of the plane fell with it, roaring down along the dive trajectory of the plane just now, and hit the ground ...

"Rumble..."

The explosion of the aerial bomb was several times louder than the explosion of the artillery shell. It sounded like thunder in the position. The thick black smoke formed a thick smoke column and shot straight into the sky. It looked very scary...

Ten minutes later, the sound of explosions stopped slowly, and more than a dozen heavy machine guns mounted at the foot of the mountain joined the battle at the same time, and the thick heavy machine gun bullets enveloped the entire position in an instant like rain.

The gunpowder smoke on the surface of the position has not dissipated, and the devils don't know the effect of the shelling just now.

The captain of the team, Xiangchuan Zhongzuo, came from the field army and often fought against the Jinsui Army on the frontal battlefield.

In his impression, the most powerful main division of the Jinsui Army could not withstand such a fierce artillery attack, not to mention the poorly equipped Eighth Route Army who only dared to fight mobile warfare and guerrilla warfare with the imperial army, and did not dare to fight positional warfare with the imperial army. up.

Based on past experience, he decided that now is the best time to attack, and immediately summoned a company of the Royal Association Army and an infantry squadron to launch an attack...

While the Eighth Route Army on the mountain hadn't reacted from the artillery cover just now, they rushed into their position in one go, and ended the battle with the bayonet that the imperial army is best at.

Lieutenant Zuo Xiangchuan was very confident, but he was not so arrogant that he did not take the Eighth Route Army seriously.

When the infantry attacked, in addition to the heavy machine guns providing fire cover, the artillery was always on standby, ready to knock out the firepower points that were not destroyed just now.

"The devils are starting to attack... enter the position immediately... hurry up!" Yang Wanhe, the commander of the Fourth Battalion, stood at the lookout of the semi-underground headquarters, observing the movement of the Japanese army through the increasingly thinning gunpowder smoke, and ordered... …

"DiDi Di Di Di Di Di Di Di Di..."

The ear-piercing whistle soon sounded on the battlefield, and a large number of soldiers immediately appeared in the trenches that were empty just now.

But as soon as they got out of the blast hole, they were frightened by the scene in front of them.

The main trench was bombed incomplete, with gaps everywhere...

Both sides of the trench are densely packed with shell craters, many previously built shooting positions, machine gun positions...all were destroyed.

"Company commander, our position has been destroyed!" A squad leader was stunned by the scene in front of him, looking helpless at the filled trenches, he could only find the company commander Guan Shanbei to ask.

"If there is no trench, guard the bomb crater... The bomb crater can also be used as a cover... But don't be too far away from the anti-battery hole... Once the devil's attacking troops withdraw, we will retreat to the anti-battery hole to avoid the shelling..." Guan Shanbei quickly glanced around and ordered.

Immediately threw himself into a bomb crater next to it, first opened the safety of the Mauser pistol, put it aside, then picked up a [-] big cover, aimed at the front, and waited quietly for the arrival of the devil.

The instructor suddenly touched it, and said excitedly: "Company commander, the anti-aircraft hole that the regimental commander asked us to dig is useful..."

"I counted it. Just now, under the cover of artillery fire, only six soldiers in the whole company died, and two soldiers were seriously injured...the loss is less than one squad..."

"If this was the case in the past, it would be good to wipe out more than half of the casualties after such an artillery fire!"

"I was worried that we would not be able to stop the devil's full attack without artillery cover..."

"I'm not afraid now... With the anti-bunker hole in hand, we can block the devil's attack at least twice!"

"If the machine gun bunker is as amazing as the leader said, it is possible to block the devil's attack three times!"

Guan Shanbei looked happy and ordered: "Before the devils rush up, report this good news to the battalion commander and regimental commander. They must be more anxious than us!"

"Tell the battalion commander that we are absolutely sure to repel the Japanese and puppet attacking troops, please rest assured!"

After finishing speaking, he gave an order to his subordinates: "Pass it on, there are only more than two hundred Japanese and puppet troops attacking us. We have bunkers, heavy machine guns and mortars. We will definitely be able to repel them!"

"I decided to bring them closer before firing, causing maximum damage to the Japanese and puppet troops!"

"No one can shoot early without my order!"

Lieutenant Kagawa is holding a telescope to observe the position of the independent regiment!

Seeing that the trenches halfway up the mountain were bombed and incomplete, there was not even a complete section of the position, there were gaps and shell craters everywhere, even if the Eighth Route Army guarding the position had not been blown up, they would have suffered heavy casualties from the artillery fire, the serious face was unconscious Flash a smile!
"Kill it..."

The attacking troops have already rushed to the position of [-] or [-] meters in front of the formation without any attack, which further confirms the judgment of Lieutenant Kagawa just now: the defenders of the position have suffered heavy losses and have lost their combat effectiveness...

The smile on his face was stronger than before, and he continued to stare at the attacking troops, expecting them to attack and occupy the blocking position of the independent regiment!

"Da da da... papa pa... bang bang..."

The sudden gunshots on the mountainside shattered his dream. At first, there were only a few gunshots, and within two seconds, there was a burst of sound...

Dense bullets flew out of the position, covering the attacking troops in an instant.

The Eighth Route Army fired from a high position, even if the imperial army who participated in the attack hid behind the puppet army, they were still stared at by machine guns...

The sudden rain of bullets seems to have eyes, specially passing the puppet army in front and shooting the devils behind...

The devil didn't expect the Eighth Route Army to be so tolerant, and he rushed to their noses before shooting.

In addition, there are puppet troops blocking the front, and they are the first to die when they are blocked.

The self-righteous little devil was hardly vigilant, until the gunshots on the mountainside rang out, and the surrounding soldiers were harvested by bullets like wheat, the surviving devils realized the danger and fell to the ground screaming.

But the time they hesitated was long enough for the defenders to kill an infantry squad of them...

The little devils who survived were not much better. The offensive positions under their feet were cleared by the independent regiment, and all the bunkers that could hide were razed to the ground!

There is no way to hide lying on the ground, and the entire back is exposed to the guns of the blocking forces.

The rain of bullets flying over from above continues to harvest life...

A lot of devils lie on the ground, hiding and hiding, and there is no movement. At some point, two blood holes have been punched out of the back, and the blood gushing out has been dyed red by the military uniform...

Zhongzuo Kagawa was dumbfounded, and countless incomprehensible questions popped up in his mind.

"How is it possible...how come there are so many Eighth Route Army in the blocking position, how did they escape our artillery fire!" Kagawa Zhongzuo frowned and shouted, watching and giving orders.

"The artillery fire immediately, kill the firepower of the Eighth Route Army on the position, hurry up!"

"Covered by heavy machine guns, let the Royal Association Army go to the front to make an assault, we still have a chance to break into their positions..."

"Rumble..."

The mortar squadron not far from Kagawa Zhongzuo was the first to fire. There were puppet soldiers standing in front of the devils on the battlefield. The gunners were not worried about the shells accidentally injuring their own people...

Soon after, the mountain artillery also joined the battle, staring at the firepower on the position to explode.

"Rumble..."

Several shells hit a heavy machine gun at the same time and exploded. The flames splashed and the smoke filled the air. The roaring heavy machine gun instantly misfired...

Zhongzuo Xiangchuan thought that the Eighth Route Army's firepower would be destroyed as soon as the artillery shot.

The result was disappointing, the smoke surrounding the firepower point hadn't dissipated, and the heavy machine gun that had just misfired roared again...

The bullets seemed to cost no money, and instantly covered the three soldiers lying on the ground.

"What's the matter? Why can't the mountain artillery blow up the firepower of the Eighth Route Army... Could it be that their blocking positions are made of iron!" Zhongzuo Xiangchuan was dumbfounded, and there were more and more questions in his mind.

"Sir, there are too many wounded in the attacking troops... The Eighth Route Army fired condescendingly. They have nowhere to hide... Everyone will be left there!" The adjutant couldn't figure out these problems either, and his attention never left. attacking troops.

Although lying on the ground, the latest casualties can still be judged by their counterattack gunfire.

In just a few minutes, the attacking force was knocked out of another infantry squad, leaving only fifty or sixty soldiers lying on the ground struggling to support themselves, and the casualties continued to increase.

"Retreat...the attacking troops retreat immediately!" Kagawa Nakazuo suddenly reacted, looking at the heavy casualties of the attacking troops, he ordered with a heartache.

"We must destroy the blocking position, kill the Eighth Route Army above, and destroy all machine gun fire points... Only then can we launch the next round of offensive..."

"The artillerymen continue to fire..."

"Call the air force immediately, I will let them use aerial bombs to blow up the blocking position halfway up the mountain into a sea of ​​flames!"

"Even if the blocking position on the mountainside is really made of iron, I will melt it into molten iron..."

"Weng hum..." The artillery blasted for less than ten minutes, and the roar of the plane appeared over the battlefield again.

The planes covering the other two sweeping troops heard the news and swooped over the blockade positions billowing in thick smoke.

"Woo woo woo..." The aerial bombs roared.

"Boom..." There was an explosion the moment it landed, and Niutoushan trembled twice...

Thick black smoke rose into the air wrapped in flames, forming a mushroom cloud at an altitude of [-] to [-] meters... It can be seen how powerful the aerial bomb is...

The plane that just dropped the bomb has just been pulled up from the ground, and another plane has already roared towards the ground...

"Woooooo...Boom..." A new aerial bomb exploded on the ground soon...

After six consecutive aerial bombs exploded, the blocking position halfway up the mountain was blown into a sea of ​​flames, and the soil on the ground was scorched.
