Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 521 Chapter 520, Explosion!
“3...2...1...fire!” At the 120 mortar position, the artillery company commander looked at the dial on his wrist and gave the order to fight.

Swoosh... Boom boom boom... As the loader loosened his hand, the shell fell naturally, then bounced back from the bottom and flew out of the muzzle with a boom boom.

"Ready..." Ignoring the shells still flying in the air, the artillery company commander continued to give orders and fired another round of explosive bombs.

At the attack position, the 82 mortar combat group placed here also fired a round of mortar shells at the position of the turret at almost the same time. Because these 82 mortars have been modified, they can all be fired horizontally. The artillerymen only need to pull the trigger, and the shells that have been loaded in place will fly out.

In the front trench, the tin trumpet used for shouting had been put back into the trench, and the soldiers of the vanguard squad also raised their guns, looked up at the sky, listened to the whistling of artillery shells flying overhead, and waited for the order to attack to be issued.

At this time, another combat platoon also rushed over from the communication trench. They came to receive the puppet troops. Of course, the puppet troops were still in the bunker at this time, and they came just for precaution.

Boom boom boom... The 82 mortar shells fired horizontally accurately hit the turret that was much higher than the stronghold, and burst into balls of fire on the outer wall of the turret. It was very abrupt. A violent explosion occurred inside the second floor of the Japanese turret. Balls of fire and various debris sprayed out from the firing holes around the turret.

"Haha, we fired the shell directly into the firing hole, and it exploded inside!" Somewhere in the position, an artillery squad leader had a proud look on his face.

"Sergeant, does this mean that the Japanese on this floor are basically finished?" someone asked.

"The explosion radius is more than 20 meters. How big is the inside of the Japanese artillery tower? So, basically few people can survive!" The squad leader said proudly, squatted down and carefully adjusted the parameters, preparing to fire another shot.

Boom boom boom...More violent explosions exploded in the courtyard of the stronghold, black smoke rose up along with flames, and flying soil and rocks hit the inside of the stronghold's wall. Then, another round of fierce artillery fire exploded in the courtyard of the Huting stronghold. It was the second round of 120 heavy bombardment.

This is a shell that is enough to blow up two and a half acres of land. In just 10 seconds, the small Huting stronghold was hit by 18 shells. This is really a saturation attack! Of course, because the wall of the stronghold has not collapsed yet, the soldiers outside cannot see the situation inside clearly, so the shelling must continue!

So, when the 82 mortars continued to fire directly at the third floor of the bunker, two more heavy mortar shells landed in the yard of the stronghold. Of course, the explosions in these two rounds were not that violent, they just spewed out a lot of thick smoke! Pepper shells, if not used now, when will they be used?

Seeing that the entire stronghold was covered in smoke, the artillerymen naturally stopped the bombing. The rest depended on the Japanese's choice.

In the stronghold, some bunkers close to the mortar bombing site had half of their walls gone, and then the Japanese soldiers who were holding machine guns fell to the ground one by one, spitting blood and some pieces of meat. Occasionally, the few who were still alive coughed in the thick smoke, with tears and snot all over their faces.

As for those soldiers who were far away from the explosion point, although they were still alive, they were also being stimulated by the smoke and were almost dying.

Of course, there are also the Japanese in the turret! The Japanese on the second floor basically don't need to be considered, and the Japanese on the third floor have also felt the greeting from the chili smoke and lost their ability to perceive the outside world.

"Listen, puppet soldiers in front. I'll give you ten counts. Come out and surrender! After ten counts, we will blow up all the bunkers! Listen, puppet soldiers in front. I'll give you... 10, 10..."

The small loudspeaker was shouting again, and the puppet soldiers listened carefully, which caused a buzz in the puppet army. "Squad leader, do you want to go out and surrender? The explosion just now was too powerful, we can't stand it!"

"I don't care. I want to live. I have a wife and mother at home waiting to take care of me. I can't die here!"

"Whoever stands in my way will die with me! Brothers, let's go. There is still a way to survive if you surrender!"

Before the small loudspeaker counted to 5, puppet soldiers ran out of the bunker and headed towards the trench on this side, running as fast as they could without caring about their heads... Then, more puppet soldiers ran out of the bunkers outside.

The puppet soldiers were not stupid either. They knew that these Eighth Route Army soldiers were really powerful, especially the artillery. They really couldn't afford to offend them! Of course, there was also a comrade who had infiltrated the interior to incite and lead the puppet soldiers, and they ran out like a mutiny.

"Jump in, jump in, put your hands up, don't move!" The soldiers who came over for the second time began to receive prisoners, but the soldiers of the spearhead platoon cheered up and waited for the battle to come.

By this time, the small loudspeaker had already counted 10 numbers. Everyone was looking at the location of the bunker, watching the puppet soldiers running over, entering the trenches, and being received by their comrades.

Finally, no more puppet soldiers escaped, and the 82 mortars at the back were ready for a new round of attacks.

"Ready...fire!" The artillerymen bombarded the outer bunkers again, no longer caring whether there were still puppet soldiers inside. They were joined by the spearhead squad soldiers carrying rocket launchers, and they also fired rockets at the nearest bunkers that still contained puppet soldiers.

Boom, boom, boom... The explosions rang out again. The bunkers outside the stronghold were blown up one by one. Even one side of the stronghold's wall was blown away, providing the attacking soldiers with enough attack surface.

After the shelling ended, the sound of a charge was heard from the rear, and the soldiers of the spearhead platoon in front jumped out of the trenches one after another, holding their weapons, and rushed towards the direction of the stronghold.

"One group, follow me, go..." The bunkers outside were gone, and the sharp knife platoon rushed directly into the stronghold, immediately divided into groups to cooperate and clean up the remaining bunkers. Soon, fierce gunfire rang out in the stronghold. Da da da... bang bang... The battle lasted for 5 minutes, and the gunfire continued. Another company of troops pressed in from behind and entered the stronghold through the blown-up wall.

"It's basically over now, there won't be any accidents!" At the command center, Li Yunlong looked confidently in the direction of the stronghold with a firm tone.

"I don't think the Japanese have any chance of winning! According to your method, Old Li, the puppet troops surrendered and the Japanese were also dealt with at the same time. Very good!" Captain Zheng laughed.

"Look, the Japs' plaster flag has been dropped. We have won! Damn it, why did they drop the Japs too? These troublemakers!"
