Chapter 310: If the North is not working, attack the South
"Boom boom boom boom..."
Continuous field artillery explosions occurred on and beside the road.
Gun smoke mixed with shrapnel and sand and gravel flew everywhere.
Continuous Japanese soldiers were killed or injured by artillery shells.
The Japanese captain was lucky not to be injured by the shell.
However, looking at the corpses and wounded on the ground, the Japanese captain gritted his teeth and cursed in anger.
"Baga, ten 75mm field guns?! Retreat, retreat, retreat!"
The Japanese captain never expected that there were ten 75mm field guns in the position ahead.
The hit rate of the ten artillery shells just now was extremely high.
There were six shells landing on the road alone.
In addition, although the deadly shell fell on the side of the road, it was only more than two meters away from the road.
This first round of artillery bombardment caused dozens of casualties.
It can be seen how good the Black Wolf Army’s artillery technology is.
The Japanese quickly got up and supported the wounded as they retreated quickly.
Unfortunately, they had just retreated less than 30 meters when the second round of shells came whistling...
The Japanese regiment commander at the back was looking at the scene of the troops in front being bombed with a telescope, gritting his teeth and cursing in anger.
"Baka, how could the Black Wolf Army still have so many 75mm field guns?"
"Marshal Yuan has already taken away ten guns and just transferred five. How could there be ten more 75mm field guns?"
"Immediately notify the team in front to retreat quickly and lure them out!"
Captain Tian Nei roared in anxiety.
Although the Japanese were retreating, the artillery shells seemed to have eyes. They would fly to wherever the Japanese retreated.
Obviously, there must be artillery observers around who were guiding the artillery behind to bombard his troops.
Now he could only order the team in front to retreat quickly.
Otherwise, once their field artillery entered the range of the Black Wolf Army's field artillery, they would be subjected to the covering bombardment of the Black Wolf Army's field artillery before they could even set up their artillery positions.
Just as he expected, Monkey was on a hillside, using the radio to keep track of Jiang Yangde behind him at all times, asking Jiang Yangde to adjust the coordinates after each round.
After all, the road is rugged and not straight. If you want to kill the Japanese to the maximum extent, you need the artillery to provide coordinates in time for guidance.
After a long time, the Japs finally withdrew from the maximum range of Jiang Yangde's field artillery.
"Damn it, you're so fast!"
The monkey spat on the ground.
When the Japanese heard that there were no more whistling sounds of artillery shells behind them, they slowed down their pace, patted their chests and gasped for breath.
The Japanese captain looked back at his own team and saw that there were less than a hundred people left. He gritted his teeth and cursed in anger.
Two squadrons, a machine gun squadron, an artillery squad, plus a large team, totaling more than 600 people, did not even see a single Black Wolf Army soldier, and were beaten down to only more than 100 people.
In order to survive, his men threw away all their heavy machine guns, infantry guns and artillery shell boxes.
This was the first time in his military career.
"Bagayalu, damn Black Wolf Army, just wait, just wait, cough cough cough... notify the two squadrons in front, they must find their artillery positions and blow up their 75mm field guns!"
"Report, the signalman and radio station were bombed!"
"Baga! Retreat, keep retreating!"
The Japanese captain had no other choice but to continue retreating to prevent the Black Wolf Army from pursuing them.
At the same time, they also hope that the Black Wolf Army will chase them out.
In that case, the artillery observers of their two squadrons would be able to give the coordinates to their own field artillery battalion as soon as possible. At that time, they would be able to use their own field artillery to bomb the Black Wolf Army and take revenge.
It’s a pity that the Black Wolf Army’s artillery positions are all behind the hillside.
Although the two Japanese squadrons had approached the Black Wolf Army's position, they could not see the specific location of the artillery position.
What they didn't expect was even more.
Before this, Monkey arranged for Lynx to lead his men to follow the two Japanese squadrons on the flanks.
Seeing the Japanese squadron stop, Lynx immediately notified Jiang Zhengwu.
The Japanese artillery observer has already set up the artillery telescope.
Some Japanese soldiers began to observe the Black Wolf Army's positions through the artillery telescope and started to draw pictures.
Some Japanese soldiers have already started using the radio to contact the captain of the field artillery battalion in the rear.
Unfortunately, at this time, the field artillery battalion commander was still leading his artillery to retreat and had not yet prepared the artillery position.
Otherwise, the Japanese could use the coordinates provided by the Japanese artillery observer to carry out bombing.
At this time, Jiang Zhengwu had already arranged for people to set up mortars in the trenches and carry out intensive bombing in the direction of the two squadrons.
The Japanese soldiers looked at the whistling artillery shells and were so scared that they quickly lay down.
"Boom boom boom..."
More than twenty shells landed and exploded in the ranks of the two Japanese squadrons.
Many Japanese soldiers were blown into the sky.
"Baga! There are so many mortars in the Black Wolf Army's position!"
"Bagayalu, our position has been exposed. The Black Wolf Army has too many mortars. Retreat, retreat, retreat!"
The two Japanese squadrons quickly led their troops to retreat.
But the mortar's firing speed is fast, faster than infantry guns.
Because every time an infantry gun fires a shell, it needs to eject the shell and install it again, and also pull the firing rope.
But the mortar is different. Once the shell falls into the barrel, it is fired.
After the shell flies out, the second shell can be put in immediately.
Therefore, in terms of continuous bombing, mortars are better than infantry guns.
For a moment, the two Japanese squadrons were crying for their parents because of the bombing.
In particular, the artillery observers from those two squads became the main targets of bombing.
After two rounds of artillery shells, all the artillery observers from the two squads were wiped out.
However, some fish still escaped.
These guys were familiar with the route because they had once experienced approaching the Black Wolf position from the woods.
Although the Japanese captain was angry, he had already learned the route, so he asked the team to rest on the spot and wait until night to take action.
night.
The Japanese captain who had already detoured to the south, led the Japanese and puppet troops south of Linnan City, and took advantage of the darkness to advance quickly towards Ouyang Tianqing, intending to launch a surprise attack.
However, when they were about to reach the southern position, they suddenly stepped on booby traps and land mines.
The continuous explosions woke up the brothers who were sleeping with their eyes closed on the position.
The brothers popped their heads out of the trenches one by one.
Looking at the flames of the explosion not far away, and the flames reflecting the falling figures of the Japanese and puppet soldiers.
Everyone laughed excitedly.
"The damn Japs are trying to launch a sneak attack!"
"Now you know how powerful our Black Wolf Army is!"
However, soon, mortars and infantry guns roared towards the position.
"Damn it, hide, hide!"
The company and platoon commanders shouted loudly.
The brothers quickly hid in cat-ear caves and air-raid shelters to avoid the shells.
In order to defend the county, Ouyang Tianqing also made sufficient preparations.
After observing the battlefield of the Black Wolf Army in the north, he dug many cat ear holes and air-raid shelters on the position, imitating the Black Wolf Army's example.
He even found time to have Jiang Zhengwu of the Black Wolf Army personally go to the battlefield to provide guidance.
