Bright Sword: Heiyunzhai was closed at the beginning

Chapter 238 Am I Still In Time Anyway?

As the frontline commander of the siege, Li Yunlong set up a temporary command post 1 km away from the north gate of Jinyang. Today, the Ping An Group took on the role of the pioneer, and Li Yunlong, who rushed back after completing the lobbying task, said that Potian would also fight for the frontline command official.

However, it is also suitable for him to do this job. The commander of the brigade has to be in charge of the central army to coordinate the four directions, and Gao Jianwu is the commander-in-chief of the artillery.

Although the chief of staff of the liaison officer has a high rank, on this occasion, comrades of the liaison officer consciously took care of the logistics.

The siege involved all aspects, and the four of them were actually very reluctant, but each of them brought up a few battalion staff officers to temporarily hold the situation. At this time, it was impossible to wait for the team to be fully assembled before doing work.

Next to each commander, there are several walkie-talkies deployed this time. When they arrive at the southern line, the support supplies from Dagushan can be delivered more conveniently. The walkie-talkie, a battlefield communication tool, can be deployed after the supplies arrive. At the battalion level, communication is greatly facilitated, and at the same time, the size of the communication troops around the commander has expanded by a large circle.

For someone like Gao Jianwu who commands artillery, there are now several artillery regiments for mountain artillery and field artillery, and then there are artillery battalions composed of infantry artillery and mortars belonging to more than a dozen regiments. Gao Jianwu must know the location of each main artillery unit. , and then he can use the precise coordinates of his map to provide support for bombarding the elements.

With such a huge workload, if there hadn't been a plan before the war, they wouldn't be in a hurry on the spot.

It is night now. Although the artillery positions have dispatched observation artillery to observe at the front, they do not have much accuracy in ranging. After each round of shelling, Gao Jianwu needs to calculate and correct the elements based on the results of their observations.

The entire North Gate of Jinyang was about three or four kilometers away, and there was an earth-shattering bombardment.

Zhang Cheng, the commander of the First Division of the Puppet Army, was shocked when he heard the sound of the artillery. What Li Chenglong said was true. The sound of the Type [-] grenade exploding like a thunderbolt was definitely not a fake. In the sky on one side, there are really hundreds of artillery roaring.

75mm mountain cannon, 105mm howitzer, 150mm howitzer, etc. Zhang Cheng could hear it immediately. When he was in the national army, he was so desperate in the face of the little devil's artillery fire, and now he was so terrified.

"Li, Mr. Li, am I still in time anyway?" Zhang Cheng said tremblingly.

"It's too late, of course it's too late, Mr. Zhang, welcome back to the people's team. We will never forget your efforts. Mr. Yang, let's see if there is any possibility of reversing together. Jinyang is the city of the people, and we will return soon." In the hands of the people, we hope that this people's city will suffer less losses."

Li Chenglong stretched out his hand. At this time, his tone was unusually sincere, and he was completely gone from the original aggressiveness.

Today's action is actually very important here. The combat strength of the two puppet military divisions, under the circumstances tonight, certainly does not have too many obstacles to breaking the city, but for the relatively complete reception of Jinyang, In particular, protecting Jinyang's industrial infrastructure is basically crucial.

This is Gao Jianwu's request to the brigade commander, and it is also what he cares most about.

Seeing that the mission is about to reach the most critical step, Li Chenglong is also very excited.

"Mr. Zhang, your task tonight is to send people to take over and protect the factories in Jinyang as soon as possible. As for the combat task of eliminating the little devils, we will hand them over to our troops. If Master Yang can return to the people's team, Let’s also protect Jinyang together.”

Hearing Li Chenglong's request, Zhang Cheng was stunned for a while before reacting, and became a little excited.

Originally, he thought that the Eighth Route Army wanted him to open the city gate to cooperate with the siege, and fight face-to-face with the little devil. He knew his own affairs, and I am afraid that after this kind of mission tonight, there would be nothing left in his team.

The little devil has accumulated prestige in the puppet army for a long time, and he is always afraid of getting three points in the face of the little devil. You will know it before the battle.

But if it's just going to defend the factory, then it's fine.

The main force of the little devils must be fighting against the Eighth Route Army. The remaining ones who destroy the factories are at best a small number of military police and even special agents. up.

"All right, all right, I'll send people to take over the factory right away, Mr. Li, whichever factory you want to protect, I'll send people to that factory.

Adjutant Sun, order the guard battalion to go on alert. Once any little devils come, they will be detained. If there is any resistance, they will be killed immediately!

I personally went to the Second Division to meet Mr. Yang, and we usually have some kind of friendship. Now that the matter has developed to this point, I believe Mr. Yang can see the situation clearly. Zhang Cheng repeatedly agreed.

No matter how the eight roads are arranged in the future, anyway, I must do something to advance.

Now listening to the artillery fire outside, if you are not decisive, you will really be in a dilemma when you are pushed out by the little devil to become cannon fodder.

"Brigade Commander, the north gate tower of Jinyang has been destroyed by artillery fire, and now a gap of hundreds of meters has been opened."

"Brigade Commander, a round of artillery fire coverage has been completed a few hundred meters near the north gate tower of Jinyang. Frontier observation, the little devil's firepower point and the main defensive force have been destroyed!"

"Brigade Commander, the assault battalion rushed into Jinyang, and was blocked by about a brigade of little devils, and is currently requesting artillery support!"

On the side of the brigade commander, after hearing the constant reports of the battle situation, the brigade commander constantly updated the marks of the enemy and the enemy on the map. From the perspective of progress, the gap was not that big compared with the deduction. The artillery commanded by Gao Jianwu perfectly played the role of the hammer, pointing Where to fight, in the impression of the brigade commander, this is the most powerful artillery commander he has ever seen in his life.

Today's battle was basically under Gao Jianwu's deduction, and the attack was completely unexpected by the little devil, so there was basically no special defense on the periphery. The larger bunker outside the city gate was washed away by the first round of artillery fire. The ground was knocked down one by one by the 105mm howitzer like a roll call.

As for the firepower of small machine guns, the [-]nd infantry artillery following the assault battalion directly dealt with it. When the north gate tower was blasted, the brigade commander really relaxed, but then Gao Jianwu commanded the skilled infantry coordination tactics. The brigade commander who commanded the same field for the first time was surprised again.

You must know that facing hundreds of artillery pieces, even the brigade commander is a little hesitant. Before this, no general of the Eight Route Army had so many artillery pieces to command.

However, under Gao Jianwu's command, hundreds of cannons were in order, each facing the target in front of his own infantry, and smashing all obstacles that prevented the infantry from advancing step by step.

Whether it is a machine gun fire point, a bunker or a city wall, there are artillery with a full range of calibers. As long as the report comes up from the front, Gao Jianwu can mobilize the corresponding artillery resources to destroy it!

The triangular defensive position composed of several dark forts was replaced by the former, and the brigade commander himself calculated that it would be absolutely impossible to send someone to blast it in a few hours or even a day or two.

This kind of bunker hidden underground is covered with a layer of reinforced concrete bunkers. Not to mention mortars and 75 infantry guns, even [-]mm mountain guns are not easy to use.

However, after Gao Jianwu heard the description of the target, he was able to quickly call for different artillery support. Several 105mm howitzers were fired one by one, and the defensive position was gone.

The whole attack was as smooth as silk, and within half an hour of the battle, the assault battalion entered the city!
The brigade commander was amazed at such efficiency.

So although he sat at the headquarters to grasp the overall situation, so far, he has not issued a single order, so he keeps collecting the battle situation and updating the battlefield situation map.

"Dongyaodongyao, peregrine falcon report, peregrine falcon report, the prodigal son returned to his natal family, 25 relatives have been found. Repeat, 25 relatives have been found!" There is a walkie-talkie that has been silent at the side of the brigade commander. The communicator continued to crank the power and suddenly made a sound.

Let the brigade commander be ecstatic in an instant!

"Call Gao Jianwu, and tell him that the protection target is already guarded, and now attack freely!" The brigade commander said to another correspondent, and after speaking, he picked up the microphone of the walkie-talkie in front of him and turned on the voice, "Peregrine, I am Dongyao, thank you! It will be dawn soon, take care!"

There was no more sound coming from the opposite side, but the brigade commander knew it was unnecessary.

The most important thing that Gao Jianwu told him to do has now been completed.

"The first artillery regiment, the second artillery regiment, aim at the little devil's garrison camp, and prepare for the first round of salvo!" After Gao Jianwu received the message from the brigade commander, he also fell to the ground with a stone, and Anxin began to carry out the final attack on the little devil according to the plan total attack.

He called out the base of the Little Devils Brigade, marked the coordinates of the area on the map in his mind, and then transformed it into bombardment elements and passed it to the heavy artillery regiment to prepare for the bombardment!
Gao Jianwu actually regretted the order of the bombardment, he should have attacked the little devil's barracks first, but he bet that the battle had not started for a long time, and the command system on the little devil's side might not have been straightened out, and most of the little devils should still be on standby in the camp. After the round of shelling, the entire camp of the little devils was basically gone.

If you are lucky, you can reduce too many obstacles to the siege.

But the bombardment of the siege has passed for a while, and the little devil may have mobilized some.

However, Gao Jianwu couldn't control these things now, and after handing over the preset goals of this target to the First Artillery Regiment and the Second Artillery Regiment, he turned his attention to Li Yunlong's assault group.

After the 4 main battalions rushed in, they controlled a large commanding height in the city and opened up the battlefield space in the city. The 3 main regiments rushed in immediately, and Li Yunlong followed the main regiment to move the forward headquarters to the city.

But soon they encountered fierce resistance from the little devils. An infantry brigade formed a line of defense with sandbags on the street, and firmly blocked the street with heavy machine guns. The dense bullets made it impossible for the charging soldiers to find a place to hide. Dozens of them were knocked down at once!
The terrible street fighting began.

At this time, the heavy infantry guns and mortars had not had time to follow the team, and the grenade launchers in the hands of the soldiers did not dare to aim directly at the attack at this moment. They hid behind the houses and waited for the observers to report their coordinates. Aim right.

Seeing the stalemate in the war, the battalion commander of the main battalion immediately called for artillery fire support.

Gao Jianwu prioritized this street from the many reports requesting artillery support. He quickly found the coordinates of the corresponding location on the map, and immediately commanded a mountain artillery battalion to carry out extended artillery strikes!

Soon, more than a dozen shells landed on the little devil's blocking position, and the little devils were blown up by the shells and splashed everywhere!

The battalion commander, who hid on the roof to observe, saw the dozens of little devils' defense lines on the street below him quickly collapse under the artillery fire. Hundreds of little devils either saw the great god, or some were incomplete and wailed, and their hearts were shocked!

Fortunately, it was my own artillery fire. If the devils attack and do the same thing, then as the defensive side, they will basically either flee or die on the ground!
It is completely beyond human control.

Artillery is indeed the king of war!
