I'm killing enemies with my sword and exploding equipment

Chapter 549: The Eighth Route Army also has heavy artillery?

The 117th Regiment encountered an eight-pronged ambush and was beaten to a pulp and suffered heavy casualties. The situation quickly spread to the large troops behind.

Naotoshi Sakata of the 52nd Regiment couldn't help but feel very proud. He couldn't help but look smart and said to Chief of Staff Komori Kokichi:
“I knew Tubal Road would not only have mines as a means!
What happened to the 117th Wing now confirms my judgment! "

Komori Kokichi also nodded with lingering fear:

"Congratulations, Your Excellency, Captain.

I heard that the 117th Wing had suffered more than half its casualties and had basically lost its combat effectiveness.

At this time, Mr. Takagi may be severely punished by the division commander. "

"Ha ha……"

Sakata Naojun laughed and thought to himself: It seems that the division commander still loves me!

Otherwise, my 52nd Regiment will be unlucky now.

……

Behind the main force of the Japs, Akiba Ryuken was so angry that he wanted to draw a knife and kill someone when he heard that the 117th Regiment in front was ambushed and more than half of the soldiers were injured.

shouted:
"idiot!
Is Ryutaro Takagi so stupid that he doesn’t send elite soldiers to conduct reconnaissance?
Even if no top soldiers were sent for reconnaissance, was the telescope in his hand just a decoration?

Can’t you see the ambush position on Tubal Road? "

Of course, the orderly soldier could not answer his question, so he could only pretend to be dead and remain speechless.

After Qiuye Ryuken got angry for a while, he decisively ordered:

"Ask the 117th Regiment to retreat and reorganize the team, and order the artillery regiment to immediately deploy on the spot and bombard the Tubal Road position with three rounds of rapid fire!

After the bombardment is over, let the 52nd Regiment replace the 117th Regiment and attack, destroying this group of country rats blocking the road! "

Originally, Akiba Ryuken thought that after his military order was issued, he would soon hear the wonderful sound of the artillery regiment's heavy artillery bombing Tubal Road, but he did not expect that the artillery regiment commander, Colonel Takai Tsunryo, came to him on horseback in person.

"idiot!
Mr. Gaojing, the warriors of the 117th Regiment are bleeding. I order you to shell the Tubal Road position immediately. Why don't you go? ? ? "

Hearing this, Takai Tsunryo could only explain with a grimace:
"Your Excellency, Division Commander, our mountain artillery and howitzers are currently more than seven or eight kilometers away from the Tubal Road position, and they are out of reach.

I am humble enough to ask you, the division commander, to order the infantry regiment in front to clear the way so that our artillery regiment can move forward. "

After hearing what Takai Tsunaro said, Akiba Ryuken couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

A division with more than 2 people and a large number of cars, trucks, war horses, and pack horses had to march on the narrow roads in Jin, so the team was naturally forced to be very long.

There are several kilometers in front and back!

As for artillery, as the most important part of an army, it is natural to hide in the middle and rear of the marching column.

This will prevent the enemy from counterattacking and destroying the artillery easily.

So now, it is not surprising that the forward 57th Regiment of the 117th Division has encountered the blocking position of the Secret Service Regiment, but the last artillery regiment is still seven or eight kilometers away from the blocking position of the Secret Service Regiment.

After all, it's not easy to drag those heavy artillery!

The speed is slower and very reasonable.

This is also the reason why the observation post of the artillery battalion of the Special Agent Regiment has not discovered them yet.

——The distance is still too far!
Slightly restraining his shy emotions, Qiuye Longxian scolded with a stern look:

"idiot!
Why are you asking me this kind of thing?
It's on the battlefield now!
Quick, quick, act!

Don’t let the blood of my locust army warriors be shed in vain! "

Tsunayoshi Takai didn't get a good look, so he naturally had a lot of MMP in his heart.

But he didn't dare to stab the acting division commander, so he could only agree with a nod and bow, and then quickly took action.

……

In the front, Naotoshi Sakata of the 52nd Regiment heard the order from the commander. The division commander asked the 117th Regiment to retreat and reorganize the army, but their 52nd Regiment stepped forward, and he was suddenly very depressed.

However, he suddenly smiled again when he thought that the order from the division commander was for them to wait until the bombardment was over before charging.

He still doesn’t know the power of the heavy artillery of the artillery regiment?
He thought that as long as there were three or five rounds of artillery bombardment, not even a living mouse would be found on the Tuba Road position.

So he immediately ordered his people:
"Warriors, hurry up and get ready!
Later it will be my turn to make contributions to the 52nd Regiment! "

……

117th Regiment, Takagi Ryutaro heard the order from the division commander to retreat, and he felt as if he had been granted amnesty.

He quickly raised his head and shouted:

"Hurry up, turn in!"

Following his order, the little devils who were lying on the ground and firing their guns immediately turned around and ran away, for fear that they would be too late if they ran too slowly.

Although they are an elite army, they are not willing to continue to endure the current situation of being passively beaten.

After all, who is not afraid of death?
On the secret service team's position, seeing the little devil about to run away, Wang Quanfa quickly asked Han Yang:
"Old Han, the Japs are trying to escape. Should we order the anti-aircraft guns and machine guns to fire and keep the Japs regiment here?"

Han Yang shook his head:

"Young devil, this is a division, and we still have to fight this battle!
We can't reveal all our cards at once. "

"That's true!
The Japs' artillery regiment hasn't shown up yet. I wonder if our trenches and anti-gun holes can withstand it! "

Wang Quanfa was worried.

In fact, why is Han Yang not worried?

None of them had ever seen the power of a volley fired by the Japanese artillery regiment!

……

It has to be said that although the 57th Infantry Division has been suffering a lot of losses since it left Shimen.

But their organization is still very strong, and there are no problems with the delivery of military orders.

So now that Akiba Ryuken's order was issued, all the troops immediately took action.

The tragic 117th Regiment, under the command of Takagi Ryutaro, endured huge casualties, dragged the wounded, and withdrew from the guns of the soldiers of the special agent regiment. However, it was not that easy for them to escape the bombardment of the special agent regiment's artillery.

The Type 2800 infantry gun has a range of meters and is still chasing them to explode, regardless of whether it is a waste of shells.

It took them nearly twenty minutes to escape the attack range of the special agent group.

At this time, the commander of the regiment, Ryutaro Takagi, discovered that one of his regiments of more than 3000 people now had less than 1500 people left, and almost everyone was injured. It was terrible!
He couldn't help but feel like crying!

I thought sadly and angrily: The firepower of Tubal Road is too fierce!
It's several times stronger than the Locust Army!
At this time, the captain of the 52nd Regiment, Naotoshi Sakata, had already led his men and prepared to attack.

Seeing how miserable they were, Sakata Naojun couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart.

He secretly decided in his heart that he was determined not to make a move until the artillery bombardment was completed!

……

Fortunately, at this time, the little Japanese infantrymen on the road had already taken the initiative to hide in the ravines on both sides of the road, leaving the road to the artillery regiment behind the team.

The soldiers of the 57th Field Artillery Regiment, led by Colonel Tsunaro Takai, the commander of the regiment, moved forward to a position four or five kilometers away from the ambush position of the special agent regiment, and then began to deploy the heavy artillery pieces.

The little Japanese soldiers who served as observers also climbed up the ridges on both sides of the road to conduct observations and were ready to report the parameters of the bombardment at any time.

Soon, their 75mm mountain guns and 105mm howitzers were ready for bombardment.

Tsunryo Takai knew that the division commander was anxious, so he did not delay. Without waiting for all the artillery to be ready, he ordered a 75mm mountain gun and a 105mm howitzer to fire immediately.

After receiving the order, the gunners immediately stuffed the shells into the barrels, and then calculated the bombardment elements based on the parameters reported by the observers. Then, in one operation, they were as fierce as a tiger and fired with a bang——

"boom!"

"boom!"

Two loud bangs.

In an instant, the entire 57th Division's little Japanese soldiers were refreshed.

They all knew that this was their own heavy artillery firing.

Everyone thinks: Those dirt rats who are constantly disgusting will soon be eliminated!
When the time comes, I must kill as many as 3727 Tubalu!

Only then can you show your bravery!
……

As soon as the Japs' artillery opened fire, Han Yang yelled at the secret service group's position:

"Shelter, shelling!"

Following his order, the soldiers immediately got into the bomb-proof holes dug in advance, held their heads in their hands, and were ready to be bombed.

"boom!"

"boom!"

With two loud noises, the soldiers all felt the earth shake twice.

The power of 75mm mountain cannon shells and 105mm howitzer shells is quite impressive.

However, they did not hear anyone scream.

Can't help but feel a little suspicious.

At this time, the observer was heard shouting:

"The little devil's artillery skills are not good, these two cannons will go far!"

Upon hearing this, the soldiers grinned and sneered:
"You stupid little devil will only waste cannonballs!"

"That's right, if they want to hit us, they have to practice for three to five years!"

“I really want to rush out and kill all these sons of bitches!
Let them dare to blast us with cannons! "

……

When Han Yang heard this, he quickly shouted:
"This is a school shooting by little devils, the official artillery attack is behind, don't be careless!

Hide them all in the bombholes and don't show your head! "

Following his shout, the company and platoon-level officers of the second and third battalions also repeated this sentence loudly to remind their soldiers.

……

The Japs' artillery began to calibrate fire. In fact, the first person to react was not Han Yang and others on the frontal blocking position, but the artillery battalion of the Secret Service Regiment on the hillside in the distance.

The observation post of the artillery battalion was still looking for the artillery troops all over the mountains and fields. When they heard the sound of artillery, their eyes suddenly lit up.

He quickly held the telescope and looked towards where the sound came from.

Then they saw the Jaap's artillery position.

Quickly and swiftly, he waved the flag in his hand and reported the position to the artillery battalion headquarters.

In the artillery battalion headquarters, Gao Yuanzhi had been waiting for a long time. When he saw the observation post's report, he immediately shouted loudly:
"Everyone is ready, target No. 7, three rapid fire rounds!"

——They had calibrated their shooting before the war and divided the specific directions, so there is no need to calibrate now!
After listening to Gao Yuanzhi's order, the messengers around him quickly waved flags and sent orders to the artillerymen on the nearby hills.

Then in less than a minute, more than 30 artillery pieces on the artillery battalion position were all ready for bombardment and started bombarding——

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

……

The sound of intensive shelling resounded throughout the mountains.

At the Japanese artillery position, the artillery commander, Gao Jing Gangliang, was so frightened that he lost his voice and shouted loudly -

"Nani?
The Tubalu also have heavy artillery???"
