Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 554 Chapter 553, bombing is really easy
More than 1000 Japanese soldiers were being suppressed and shot at by the soldiers on Zuohui Mountain, and they did not take any anti-artillery measures. Moreover, due to the limitations of the mountain road and the mountain terrain, the Japanese soldiers were not far apart from each other, and some of them even gathered together. As a result, the artillery bombardment achieved the best effect...

There were also veterans among the devils, so after hearing the whistling sound in the sky, the veterans shouted in despair: "Baga, it's over, heavy artillery bombardment..."

Before the voices of the veterans could be heard far away, the sound of explosions could be heard in the ranks of the Japanese soldiers. Then, no matter whether they were veterans, new soldiers, or second-time soldiers, they were all torn to pieces by the merciless shock wave, turning into blood and flesh flying all around. A full 18 rounds of 120mm heavy mortar shells, mixed with 27 rounds of 50mm grenades, directly reduced the number of Japanese soldiers by half.

Before the smoke cleared, the surviving Japanese soldiers went to check the situation. There was another whistling sound in the air, and then another round of bombing, and two-thirds of the remaining Japanese soldiers were killed again. Why was the second round less effective than the first round? The Japanese soldiers ran away and were also blown to pieces. The density of the Japanese soldiers decreased, and they were no longer as concentrated as in the first bombing!
But despite this, the effect brought to everyone by the two rounds of bombing was still shocking. After all, it was just two bombings, and seven or eight hundred Japanese soldiers were killed, and they were blown into pieces!

"Baga, hurry up, disperse, run away..." After two rounds of bombing, there were still remnants of the Japanese. Although the officers' heads were buzzing, they still shouted and gave orders.

On the mountain, Captain Ou was still shooting with his soldiers when he saw two rounds of bombing by the artillery. Although he was the one who gave the order, it was the first time for him to actually see the scene of heavy mortar bombing on the battlefield! You mean the defense of the arsenal? At that time, he was in charge of the last line of defense in the factory area, so of course he didn't see it.

"Signalman, quickly notify the artillery position to stop the bombing! Quick, stop firing!" Captain Ou looked at the corpses strewn all over the ground below the mountain and immediately called a halt to the bombing. However, while he was speaking, the artillery launched another round of bombing, chasing the running Japanese troops and blowing up most of them again. As a result, there were no more than 100 Japanese soldiers left alive.

"Oh my god, these heavy mortars are so powerful? Kill the devils, charge forward!" At the foot of the mountain, Commander Mou, who was blocking the devils' retreat, looked at the situation and resolutely ordered to charge forward! What's the point of blocking the retreat at this time? The devils were about to be blown up, and if they didn't charge forward, they would just be watching the fun!

Captain Mou and his men were charging, but the distance was not close. They were still more than 800 meters away from the Japanese, so they needed to run for a while. On the mountain, the suppressive fire had stopped, and the soldiers followed their captain to see the situation after the bombing. Captain Ou looked at the few remaining Japanese soldiers and couldn't help but sighed: "Damn, it's really easy to use heavy artillery to bomb!"

"Captain, Commander Mou and his men are coming up. Do we need to help them?" a battalion commander reminded.

"It looks like the Japanese want to rush up and engage in hand-to-hand combat with Captain Mou and his men. Little Mou just can't keep his cool. How about this, you lead a company down the mountain and attack them from both sides!"

"Yes, Commander! Company Commander, take your team and follow me!" The battalion commander shouted, threw away the semi-automatic triangular bayonet, and waited for the team to go down the mountain.

"Everyone in the company, put on your bayonets and kill the Japs!" The company commander was not stupid. He knew that this was a chance for him to show his ability. He was very excited and urged them urgently.

"Kill, kill the devils!" Some of the soldiers in the company were smart. They knew that the devils had been exhausted after the three rounds of bombing. Many of the devils who seemed to be alive were actually seriously injured and were just holding on. Therefore, it would be very easy to rush up at this time. It would be a one-sided massacre. Of course, more soldiers were full of blood and walked down the path screaming. What did you say? Run down? Forget it. With such a steep terrain, if you take a big step, you will end up rolling on the ground.

Fortunately, there were not many steep sections, and the Japanese did not dare to turn back and fight, so the soldiers successfully reached the mountain road. At this time, they could rush up and kill the Japanese. And it just so happened that Captain Mou and his men were not far away from the Japanese, so they rushed up and cooperated with Captain Mou and his men.

With tacit understanding, the comrades from the special forces regiment and the local regiment adjusted their speed, and then collided with the Japanese one after another.

Unlike the fierce bombing, the hand-to-hand combat was not as loud! Of course, the cruelty was no less than the bombing! For example, a soldier stabbed the enemy with a bayonet, but the enemy hit him in the abdomen with a gun butt before dying, and both fell to the ground. However, the soldier got up, but the enemy was dead!
Some soldiers also stabbed at the height according to their usual training, but the enemy was too short, and the bayonet that should have pierced the chest pierced the enemy's neck instead.

In other cases, several soldiers cooperated with each other and stabbed the Japanese with three knives and six holes. The Japanese could not die immediately and could only endure the severe pain and howl in despair.

In short, the Eighth Route Army soldiers, who had the advantage in numbers and attacked from both sides, solved the problem at a very low cost. Although the process was a bit bloody, the devils deserved their punishment and everyone was relieved.

After dealing with these devils, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and went back to clean up the area that had just been bombed. It's no wonder that the heavy mortars and grenade launchers had a destructive effect. Not a single devil was left intact. The bombing area was filled with dusty pieces of meat, scattered limbs that were still bleeding, and various internal organs scattered in the dust.

Such a bloody scene is comparable to hell on earth, but everyone is happy and cheerful!
"Old Mou..." Captain Ou came down the mountain and met Captain Mou. He patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "After the battle just now, I really understand where the headquarters' determination to develop artillery comes from! Look at the devil's scum all over the ground. This is the result of three rounds of bombing! Let's put it this way, it's really easy to deal with the devil's group charge with a few artillery bombardments!"

"Yeah, it's much easier than using guns and bayonets! It's a pity that we still have too few artillerymen. I wish our regiment could be equipped with so many heavy mortars!" Captain Mou hoped.

"It's a good wish, but you need time to realize it. Forget about it now! Okay, let's report the battle to the headquarters. It depends on the movements of the Japanese!" Captain Ou took out a small notebook...
