Chapter 97
On the platform on the first floor in the village of Shangwangzhuang, Wang Boling led ten men from the artillery brigade to the platform on the first floor of the chimney of the civilian house. All ten men were the ones with the best live ammunition shooting results on weekdays.

The 90 people who were not selected were a little disappointed. After helping to move bricks and quickly build a brick wall in front of the chimney, they looked enviously at the ten people who were operating mortars on the platform behind the houses.

Wang Boling lay on the roof and watched the situation at the entrance of the North Village with binoculars. Zhang Chongshan built three lines of defense at the entrance of the village.Compared with the village entrances in the other three directions, because Yamamoto wanted to play a game of "surrounding three ques and one", Beicunkou didn't let his subordinates fire cannons.There is no threat of mortars, and the security at the entrance of the East Village is much better in comparison. As long as you hide behind the wall, it is still very safe to fire a gun from the hole in the wall.

In the grass on both sides of the north village entrance, Yamamoto led fifteen special forces soldiers in ambush, and only half of them fired. The grenades and mortars were useless, and the firepower was much weaker than that of the other three village entrances.After he made violent disturbances in three directions from east to west, the people inside could pour out from the north.

On the Songhu battlefield, the teaching regiment of the Whampoa Military Academy, which took the lead in the charge and was not afraid of death, left a deep impression on the Japanese army.Those members of the teaching regiment, from the head of the regiment down to the soldiers, none of them lay on the ground and hid behind sandbags to defend passively, and they didn't even fart in the face of death under the hail of bullets.

Therefore, Yamamoto subconsciously thought that the teachers and students of Whampoa and the teaching team would definitely rush out to counterattack when they heard the gunshots, and the keen performance of the Whampoa sentry was indeed first-class, but Yamamoto did not expect that these teachers and students of Whampoa would directly attack A defense line was built at the entrance of the village, and there was no thought of coming out to fight back.

"Sir, it seems that our strategy is not effective, the Chinese don't run out at all!"

"Baga, the Chinese people are cunning and cunning." The calculation failed, and Yamamoto's face was very ugly.

"Sir, according to information, there are more than 2000 teachers and students in Whampoa in China. There are enough guns and ammunition for a regiment. They can fight a battle without any difficulty. At this moment, they should also see that we are not many, but why? Still shrunk in Zhuangzi and can't come out?"

"Captain Kato ordered us to hold back these Chinese Whampoa teachers and students until the arrival of the large army. If they don't come out, we will save us trouble. When Captain Kato and Captain Kurokawa arrive, we will launch an assault together! Hmph, at that time we said in Chinese language , it's called 'catch a turtle in a urn'!"

"Xiao Gao, Xiao Yue, you two take two cannons to the roof over there. When our side fires and the enemy's firepower is exposed, seize the opportunity to adjust the muzzle and let them shoot, you know? "

"Students understand." Gao Chonghua and Yue Dexiang climbed up to the other roof nimbly with one person each.

Wang Boling was lying on the back of the roof, holding a telescope to estimate the distance of the devils who were exchanging fire with Zhang Chongshan, and then slid down from the roof quickly, directing the students to quickly adjust the angle of the mortar port.

"You two, raise the muzzle by one degree. The effective killing radius of the mortar shell is 15 meters. No matter how fast the little devil runs, the 15 meters will take two seconds. The angles of the muzzles of the three of you are a little staggered. The shells will also be staggered, forming a killing radius of three to forty meters, and the little devils will be skinned if they don't die!"

"Three, two, one, fire!" After the muzzle adjustment was completed, Wang Boling gave an order.

Three mortar shells were sent into the barrel, "Boom! Boom! Boom!" Three sounds were heard, and the three shells flew over Shangwangzhuang, drew an arc at the entrance of the North Village, and fell into the grass 300 meters away from the entrance of the village.

Three of the seven moving fire points obviously stopped, and through the three exploded sparks, Wang Boling could see clearly through the telescope. The three groups of figures immediately fell upside down and were quickly dragged down by the people next to them, but two of them seemed to be able to move.

"Baga!" Yamamoto immediately waved his hand and ordered the special soldiers to hide. At the same time, he saw that the teachers and students of Huangpu had no intention of leaving the village, so he stopped hiding his firepower and set up mortars to respond to the entrance of Beicun.

One after another shells fell into the entrance of Beicun. Although the instructor Zhang Chongshan had shouted to hide, the shrapnel flying around still scratched many students who were hiding under the corner with their arms around their necks.

The moment the Japanese mortar fired outside Beicunkou, Gao Chonghua and Yue Dexiang each quickly adjusted the muzzle, and two shells went into the chamber.Two cannons sounded, and two brilliant sparks ignited the withered grass in the field, forming a pit on the ground.

There was a slight deviation, and the blasted air wave overturned the two devils who were operating the mortar, but there was no damage.

"Get off the four of you quickly!" Hearing the reminder from the instructor Wang Bailing, the four of them had just got off the roof when three shells roared in, two flew over the roof, and one was directly next to Gao Chonghua and Yue Dexiang. There was a blast on the roof of the building, and a hole was blasted, shrapnel and tiles flew everywhere.

"It's so dangerous, I almost became a hedgehog." Gao Chonghua made a fuss out of luck.

"The devils at Beicunkou have at least three mortar positions, all of which are veterans, and they can correct the trajectory very quickly." Wang Boling said that he took a mortar, removed the bracket, and only held the barrel and base .

"Then the others should stay hidden. One group will follow me with the remaining ten shells. Let's go! Damn it, it's all over."

After leading the students to fire a cannon, Wang Bailing finally felt itchy all over, and decided to do it himself, to show the devils outside what it means to be an expert in playing cannons for more than ten years!
At present, Wang Boling carried the mortar tube and base alone, and stepped from one roof to the other. As soon as he heard the sound of a mortar outside the village, a shell would be inserted through the mouth of the other side's mortar, and it would be fired quickly. After positioning, the angle direction depends entirely on the hand.For him, an old gunner who has been dealing with cannons for more than ten years, the muzzle has become his own eyes. When he sees where the enemy is, the muzzle can turn there!
Immediately change positions after a shot is fired, so that the enemy's shells fall into the empty space.Gao Chonghua looked at the mortar in Wang Boling's hand, like a long gun in the hand of a sharpshooter, and pointed where to shoot.

The students who followed Wang Bailing and were responsible for transporting the shells were a little confused. They couldn't feel it on the shooting range. It was only in the actual combat that they deeply realized that this instructor Wang is a master gunner!It seems that there is no need to calculate the elevation angle, just holding the gun barrel is a bar!
Six of the ten shells were knocked out, and the four mortar sites outside the village disappeared. Wang Boling dusted off the dust on his body, while educating the students beside him, "Have you seen that? Ability is far more effective than bullets, as you can see now, cannonballs can injure the enemy if you hit them properly, but you can't do anything wrong with bullets."

At the entrance of the East Village, Liu Yueyang found that the enemy's mortars had stopped firing, and led a platoon of students to lock the village entrance with a machine gun again. However, he was very dissatisfied with his lack of gains, and all the vulgar words came out.

"Damn it, this kind of defensive warfare is really useless. I hide here and let others fight. I always paid attention to charging in the Northern Expedition! Mom, those guys on the roof don't shoot twice, they are prodigals. Don't let your fucking gun go!"
