The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Chapter 726 Take down a few planes for fun (first update)
The chief nodded with a smile: "If Li Yunlong commanded this battle alone, there might be some impulsive elements."

"Kong Jie and Huang Yu all participated, which shows that they decided to fight this battle after careful consideration."

"Kong Jie has a cautious personality and never fights uncertain battles."

"Huang Yu has a quick brain and often proposes some unexpected tactics."

"Huang Yu's idea must have been in the battle to storm Baoding."

"Although I don't know how they plan to storm Baoding, I have confidence in them."

"chief of staff……"

"We are too far away from the battlefield, beyond reach."

"However, the Eighth Route Army in the Yizhong can be reinforced from other sources."

"Let the intelligence department immediately pay attention to the mobilization of all Japanese and puppet troops around Baoding, and report any news immediately."

"Neiji Okamura will not give up Baoding easily."

"Helping the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong to block all reinforcements is to give them the best support."

"Especially in the direction of Beiping..."

"In order to attack the Yizhong base, Okamura Ningji has seconded tens of thousands of elites from the Kwantung Army."

"The Kwantung Army has a large number of troops, so it doesn't matter if they are all wiped out."

"I'm worried that Neiji Okamura will make another idea of ​​the Kwantung Army."

"Troops were dispatched from the three eastern provinces to go south to raid Baoding, and the Eighth Route Army was caught off guard."

The chief of staff agreed deeply: "The North China Front Army looks strong and strong, but there are too many places to defend."

"It is difficult to gather heavy troops to reinforce Baoding in a short period of time."

"The only way to break the situation is to find foreign aid."

"I'm going to make arrangements now, so that people will stare at all the passages of the Kwantung Army going south, and not give Okamura Neji any opportunity."

…………

"Boom boom boom..."

Li Yunlong's shot is Wang Zha.

Although the heavy machine guns on the top of the city fired fiercely, the bullets they fired could not be turned.

As long as the attacking troops dug trenches and the soldiers hid inside, no matter how many machine guns the Japanese army placed on the top of the city, it would be useless.

Mortars are curved-fire artillery, shells fall from the sky, and can damage attacking troops even if they are protected by trenches.

Relatively speaking, mortars pose a much greater threat to attacking troops than heavy machine guns.

Although Neiji Okamura could airdrop mortars to Baoding, he could not airdrop professional artillery.

Get rid of the artillery, no matter how many mortars in the city are, they are just a pile of scrap iron, which will not have any effect.

There are three mortar companies under the Duyi Regiment, which are dedicated to bombing the Japanese mortar positions.

Relying on the advantage of numbers, six of the eighteen shells in the first round hit the target accurately.

During the violent explosion, a large amount of black smoke rose from the Japanese artillery positions at the same time. Some Japanese gunners were blown up, some were blown over, and some fell to the ground and screamed.

Even the mortars were blown up as many as three doors.

"Baga... We are being targeted by the artillery of the Eighth Route Army..." the leader of the Devil Artillery Squadron shouted in panic.

"They have more mortars than we do..."

"Everyone, move quickly, get out of here... quickly..."

"Boom boom boom..."

The rate of fire of the mortar was too fast, and the squadron leader had just run five or six meters when the second round of shells had already followed.

Many little devils fell in this round of artillery fire.

…………

Dozens of soldiers lying more than 500 meters outside the city moved again, wielding engineering shovels, and desperately digging holes on the ground.

After a while, the excavated soil was piled up in a small mound in front of the head.

The earth pit was also about half a meter deep, and the soldiers who dug the pit took advantage of the opportunity to hide in, shrinking inside and continuing to expand and deepen the bunker.

At eleven o'clock in the evening, the scattered individual bunkers outside the city had already formed a line.

About one battalion of troops hid inside to repair the fortifications.

There is also a company of troops that uses squads as units, divides soldiers into groups, and uses soil digging methods to dig trenches towards the corner of the city wall little by little.

In order to prevent the bullets fired by the devils from the top of the city from flying into the trench and hurting the troops inside.

Several trenches are all S-shaped.

In the front headquarters that has not yet been built, Huang Yu is pointing to the Baoding City Wall to introduce his thoughts again.

"Leader, Captain Li..."

"Since we have enough time to attack Baoding."

"Then let's trade time for casualties."

"Use three days to build an offensive position outside the city and surround Baoding."

"The offensive position is divided into three trenches, 100 meters apart from each other, and the most front trench is 200 meters away from the city head."

"The commandos are in ambush right there."

"After the general offensive begins, use the shortest time to get outside the city and blast the city wall."

"The trenches are connected by traffic trenches."

"All the thunder cannons are arranged in the first two trenches. ="

"Each Flying Thunder Cannon prepares more than three reserve positions."

"After the first round of launches."

"Whether you hit the target or not."

"All moved to the reserve position through the trench, ready to launch again."

"The same Feilei artillery position can only be used once on the battlefield, which does not give the Japanese artillery any opportunity."

"A total of [-] thunder cannons are allowed to use explosive packs."

"Based on a [-]% hit rate, that's two hundred explosive kits."

"One explosive pack killed ten Japanese and puppet troops, and more than 2000 Japanese and puppet troops were finished."

"The other troops will kill some more."

"We wiped out all the little devil mobile units in the city.

"The army suddenly launched a general attack, trying to find a way to tear a hole in the top of the city."

"The commando took the opportunity to enter Baoding, and we won this battle."

Kong Jie thought for a while and replied, "Three days of digging trenches is definitely enough."

"My only concern right now is what will we do after dawn?"

"Based on the little devil's combat habits, he will definitely call for air support."

"If we choose to retreat, the Japanese and puppet troops in the city will be able to break out of Baoding under the cover of aircraft and destroy the offensive position we built overnight."

"We repaired at night, and the little devils bombed during the day. Repeatedly, we couldn't repair the offensive position in ten days."

"If we don't retreat..."

"The troops will be exposed under the eyes of the Japanese army."

"Even if there are trenches to hide in, the casualties will be very high in the face of aircraft bombing."

"We worked hard overnight to kill hundreds of Japanese and puppet troops."

"The devil plane only needs a few aerial bombs to reimburse one of our main battalions."

"I'm worried that the siege troops will be blown up before Baoding is taken down."

Huang Yu obviously had thought of a way to break the situation in advance, and blurted out: "Be prepared for air defense in advance."

"Minimize the brat plane threat."

"How?" Kong Jie immediately asked.

"The plane is in the sky, and we are on the ground. As long as the height is high enough, our rifles can't do anything to them."

"Let the devil's plane not find the bombing target." Huang Yu continued to introduce.

"The troops created smoke in the offensive position, and used thick smoke to block the vision of the pilots, so that they could not see the situation on the ground, so they could only bomb blindly."

"As the bombing accuracy got worse, the casualties of troops naturally dropped."

"If the devil chooses to lower the bombing altitude, rush into the smoke and bomb us at low altitude."

"The light and heavy machine guns in our hands are not vegetarian."

"Maybe we can get a few planes down for fun."
